[QUOTE="zoroaster100, post: 4366356, member: 8538"] [b]The Forest Lair[/b] During the halfling bard's performance, a halfling girl kept making eyes at Tlaloc, whose stature is barely taller than a male halfling. But her father, an old, stodgy halfling with a scowl on his face, interevened and ordered her away when he realized his daughter was flirting with an elf. The heroes made friends with the bard, and Lozol and Lilith confided that they were the children of the famous Sir Keegan in the song. They tried to find out if he knew more about Sir Keegan, but it seems the halfling only picked up the song years ago and sings it when passing through this region due to Sir Keegan being from these parts. The halfling asked the heroes to come and tell him of any adventures they have, so he can write songs about them some day. After stocking up on a few weapons and a couple of healing potions, the heroes now felt ready to tackle Irontooth and his kobolds in their forest lair. The journey to the forest was without incident. As the heroes approached the forest waterfall, Tlaloc and Rafanel scouted ahead, discovering a large group of kobolds wandering about the fall, collecting wood and doing various menial labors. One kobold, a powerful looking guard wearing armor and carrying a dragonscale shield, stood guard within a mystic circle of stones and runes. Tlaloc and Rafanel split up, and began an immediate surprise assault on the kobolds from their hidden positions in the woods, while calling out to their friends to come help in the assault. Rafanel immediately took down two kobolds with his arrows, Lilith pressed ahead and attacked the dragonshield warrior in his circle. The kobolds rallied, gathering as many as they could into the circle to gain its power and blessing. Things looked grim for Lilith for a moment, as a kobold slinger hit her feet with a gluepot, sticking her to the ground and stopping her from getting concealment through use of her shadow walk ability. Then the kobold minions standing on the magic circle began peppering Lilith with javelins. Tlaloc, fighting from stealth in another part of the battlefield against scattered kobold minions, teased Lilith “So how does it feel to live in the real world, and not be magically invisible?” But then after a few more javelins found their mark against Lilith, Tlaloc and the other heroes started to become concerned for Lilith’s life and limb. Rafanel killed two more minions with his arrows, and the dragonborn charged up to fight a skirmisher. No one was yet close enough to help Lilith, however. But what the kobolds were not counting on was that Lilith was not just a warlock, but also a part-time student of wizardry. Though she cannot do sot at will, as can the full-fledged wizard Xandir, Lilith has learned how to create a scorching blast to affect a whole group of opponents once in a while. She choose this moment to launch a scorching burst over the entire little cluster of kobolds in the magic cirlcle, killing most of them in a single blast right where they crouched. Xandir followed up with a scorching blast of his own, nearly finishing them off. The battle turned, and suddenly things were looking very grim for the kobolds. At that moment, the slinger shouted out “Irontooth must be warned!” and bolted in through the waterfall itself, to the kobold lair behind. The heroes finished off the remaining kobolds outside the lair, and took a chance to rest briefly just outside the cave entrance, recovering their strength for an all-out assault against Irontooth himself in his own lair.
