OOC: Looks like we're down to three active, eh? I'll NPC the other 2.
Oh and Hashkavak, you have a message in the previous post.

"...What's that?" asks Myel, shading the sun from her eyes with a hand.

Gak! I recently moved, and, so far as we knew, plans had been made to have the cable/internet/etc turned on before we even got here. However, that wasn't the case... so it ended up taking a while to get everything in place. Fortunately, I am now returned! (Yay?)

Bandits or just a town's folk misunderstanding?
Void suggest
This is not our business, but I assume that if we approach they will stop

"Let's thalk to those man, they'll understand where there interest lies." suggests Norros, as he leads the group toward the four figures.

 

[mcnathan80]

"I'm with Norros, let's see what's all the hubbub...Bub."

Sukael: No problem. Life happens. Get caught up in both games and you'll be fine .

Box Text:

As you approach closer you can make out the figures. It looks like three hobgoblins are harassing a human male. They are making no secret about what they are doing.

One of the hobgoblins turns and looks your way, and then points at you saying something. From where you are (about 500 feet away) you hear the man's shouts for help.

 

[Velmont]

"Hold On!" shouts Norros, hurrying his horse. He stops at 100 feet. "I think it isn't fair, three against 1... you know that we can also play to that, what do you think? But I think you don't want to play with us, and it would be wise, when we are angry, we aren't very nice... you should talk to the only survivor of our last attack... he survive just because we needed someone to speak. I suggest you to stop and tells us what you want from that man... or we might get angry."

[SBLOCK=OOC]Ok, not quite as good as the last Intimidation: 18. It is possible for the hobgoblin to resist, but unlikely to be an easy roll... wish it work.[/SBLOCK]

Level checks to avoid intimidation (1d20+3=15, 1d20+3=22, 1d20+3=6)

The hobgoblins continue to beat the man as Norros rides forward and issues his challenge. Two of the hobgoblins stop attacking the man. The third stops, but he shouts, "Why don't you come try to back up those words!"

 

[mcnathan80]

"By the light of Il-Yanna, does it always need to resort in bloodshed?" Hashkavak thinks to himself. "Curse the darkness for turning the hearts of this world."

"Please, please let's be reasonable about this. Surely we can come to an understanding that doesn't require violence. Let's just take a moment and you can explain what this man did to require such a beating, and maybe we can resolve this situation." While talking Hashkavak dismounts, and stands beside his horse.

OOC:
[sblock] heres my Diplomacy roll (1d20+15=32) I think it's pretty convincing.[/sblock]

Not wanting to interfere in those mind games, Void remains silent but alert

 

[Velmont]

Norros look at the hobgoblin, he almost want to gives the hobgoblin what he want, but instead, wait to see there reaction to Hashkavak's words.

[SBLOCK=OOC]If it is not good, Norros will shoot at the feet of the hobgoblin who hasn,t been intimidated. "Go away with your life while you can."[/SBLOCK]
