[Game Thread] Kobold Hall

[Nocturnal]

Over the past few months, many trade caravans on the Old King's Road en-route to Fallcrest, even those under substantial guard, have fallen prey to aggressive parties of kobold raiders. The kobolds make quick coordinated attacks on the Old King's Road, kill or scare away the traders, and steal the goods back to their stronghold, a ruined manor now known as Kobold Hall. As Fallcrest is the largest trading community in a wide area, this has slowed commerce and endangered the livelihoods of many people in addition to endangering lives.

The Lord Warden of Fallcrest has issued a bounty on kobolds, and sought adventurers willing to do whatever it takes to put a stop to the attacks. A band of five would-be heroes have agreed to take up the task together, and the Lord Warden has offered them 100 gold coins if they can bring back proof that the threat has been terminated. Some of the caravans carried rare items of great value, and the Lord Warden has asked you to retrieve them if you can. In addition to the approbation of the town and a 200gp reward, he will let you keep any unclaimed treasure in the keep.

The five make the journey to the Kobold Hall, only about 15 miles from town along the road. Fortunately and somewhat surprisingly, they do not get eaten by a bear on the way. The Cloak Wood has encroached on the grounds: the walls of the keep are covered with vines and crumbling from neglect, and trees grow wild in abandoned courtyards and gardens. The adventurers note wheel tracks in the soft earth leading to smashed-up wagons near one building, and find the entrance to the underground cellars of the ruins where the kobolds likely dwell. The door has rotted away years ago. Drawing their weapons, the five descend the staircase into the gloom...

Dominating the room ahead is a long trench, about 10 feet deep and filled with a glowing green substance that lights up the chamber around it. Beyond the trench, a small, reptilian humanoid stands before a shadowy chamber, gaping at you. The creature is no more than four feet tall and hisses when it sees you.

It jumps up and down excitedly and points at you while shouting, “Intrudersss! Intrudersss!” Aukan can hear a soft shuffling of feet from the corridor to the right, no doubt coming to answer the alarm.

The reptilian produces a sling from somewhere, and quickly reaches into a pouch at its belt for a stone. It fumbles to load it in the sling, and swings the empty weapon in the general direction of the party as the stone clatters uselessly to the ground at its feet. Laughing at this ineptitude, the heroes draw their weapons and battle is joined!

OOC In this first encounter I have rolled initiative for all of you. If you want after this battle you can roll initiative yourselves to have it ready for the next one. (You should do that, because you'd be luckier than what I got for you!) I have positioned you randomly on the staircase. You might want to work out a marching order in the OOC thread to ensure everyone begins in a strategically sound position in the future. Most of the enemies have delayed their turns until after the whole party moves, so Aukan is up first, and Erik and Chant follow immediately after. If you are online and no enemies move between your turns, you can post your actions out of order, so right now any of you can act. I'll either run them in turn order or assume the slower player delays his turn to let you go first and modify the initiative order. You all have pretty much the same initiative modifier anyway so most of the time the monsters should end up going first. Please post your actions and status in a spoilerbutton with your posts.

Map notes A map should be attached to this post: you can use the coordinates to specify exactly where you move. The pool in the center of the room is in a pit about 10 feet deep. It's filled with a glowing green sludge that lights the room brightly enough for you to see, but might not light the tunnels and alcoves that you can't see into from where you are, until you get nearer.

 

Kobold Slinger
Standard action: Sling attack vs. Chant's AC: 7 (natural 1, critical miss!)

Other enemies delay until after Merric so he doesn't explode with eagerness.

[Troy]

Still laughing, Chant moves closer to the kobold, pulling a shuriken from behind his belt. "Easy coin kobold, thats all you are." Chant spins, his cloak flying in a wide arc as the shuriken speeds towards the kobold's eye.

[Nocturnal]

The shuriken streaks accurately towards the little guard's face, not quite hitting the eye but leaving a long, bloody gash all across its cheek. That will surely leave a nasty scar! The creature yelps in pain and fear. It didn't even see the attack coming.

[Stiyl]

Erik sneers at the kobold and advances. Upon setting his feet Erik curses the kobold and attacks with hellish flames that violently erupt around the kobold.

Aukan deathstares the kobolt, for the crimes its probably committed

With greataxe in his hands, he hefts it high as he races towards the kobolt, screaming "For the Honour of Clan Stonefist!"


Action: Double-move to i-5

[Faerkin]

Thoradin lets out a sigh as he watches the barbarian go charging past him, "He's bound to be the death of me" he looks at the sole kobold then around the room as he then moves up to try to keep up with the goliath gripping the handle on his warhammer tightly.

Walking slowly and minding his step but surely towards J9 Merric prepares the spell 'Sacred Flame' for use if any enemy comes into range. As the Barbarian charges past Merric cheers him on 'Go on! Chop his head off!' he says with a small chuckle.

As Aukan rushes into the chamber, he spots a pair of kobolds hiding behind an iron portcullis in the corridor he passes on the right. It is in fact mostly rust. One of the small creatures easily squeezes through the portcullis bars and moves in to attack him when he shows himself, but not before the sentry takes advantage of his momentary distraction to slip back a step.

These kobolds are sneaky critters! The slinger loads a little clay jar into his sling, spins it around, and lobs it at the group of adventurers amassed at the front of the room. Once again however, he fails to load the sling properly and the jar falls at his feet to roll into the pit in the center of the room, where it hits the bottom with an audible plop! Who thought it would be a good idea to give this terrible shot a sling? The others chitter at it angrily in their own language, and Erik can understand most of the words: it is Draconic, the language of dragons and many other intelligent reptilians. "You pathetic nincompoop!" They berate him. "This is why we put you here on guard to be the first to get killed! What kind of a kobold can't even load a stone into a sling? Your mother was a mammal and your claws are sausages!" Some of them aren't shouting any words but seem to be laughing at their companion's ill-luck. Aukan can hear them chittering from the alcove beyond.

One of the kobolds leaps out of there, wearing a small armor suit of cured hide and wielding a spear in both hands. The newcomer rapidly trades places with the slinger who flees, apparently abashed, into the cover. As the little ones sneak underfoot around Aukan, the goliath is unable to whack them with his axe but Merric is prepared: the halfling lets loose a bolt of radiant energy that should sear the kobold. Unfortunately his aim is just a little off, and all it does is light up the far wall as the fast-moving kobold slips past. Fortunately for Aukan, these must be the unluckiest creatures who ever lived. The kobold might have been trying to stab his foot with the spear, but was so surprised by the holy flame that he skids towards the edge of the pit and nearly topples right into it! Flailing his arms for balance, the kobold is unable to attack.

The hulking goliath barbarian towers over the little kobold, many times his size. The small creatures know that the only way they can bring down such large enemies is by excellent teamwork. They baited the trap and now they spring it to good effect. Within seconds, Aukan is surrounded as two more of the creatures come at him from both sides, stabbing at him in the legs with their spears. The attacks are not enough to seriously injure him, but they are certainly annoying. Aukan and the others can tell they are more dangerous than they look when they work together. A second kobold slinger remains in cover behind the portcullis, and lobs a stone at him. This one at least knows how to load its sling, but either it is afraid to shoot into the melee where its allies are fighting, or it has difficulty aiming through the bars, and either way the stone sails past Aukan to crash into the wall, chipping off flecks of old stone.

Now that they have shown themselves the question is, will our heroes be able to support the barbarian before he gets himself in deeper trouble?

 

OOC From now on I'll post all my OOC notes in a spoiler so be sure to click it every time I post! Check back to the first post of the battle to see the map notes if you forget. You should always read each others' posts so you don't bump into each other. I will only update the map once or twice a round. You might also want to read the enemy actions to see what they can do. Or make a knowledge check if you've been reading the training thread. JoeStevens Moving down the stairs was supposed to be difficult terrain, but I did not say that in the map notes so I've ignored it, yet normally your move might have taken 7 squares. In heavy armor, your speed is 5. You cannot move that far. So I've moved you to K-10 (which might cost 6 squares of movement) as a compromise. If this is not good for you, tell me where you'd rather move and I'll change it. Merric's readied attack triggers when the kobold skirmisher shifts into range, and if he chooses to take it, his initiative changes to be before the kobold, so he'd move in the middle of their block and can't take his turn with the other PCs. However the slinger can delay again so that Merric gets to take his turn now anyway. So, I rolled that attack for Merric. In the future, you have to specify who gets the saving throw (if somebody needs one) or temp. HP or any other effects from your power, and it makes it easier for me if you also post the attack and damage rolls I have to make so I can roll for you. (I checked your sheet and it was there, so it wasn't hard.) Fortunately, you missed so that's not a problem. GeneralOf... I didn't mention that option, but you could have made a charge to get where you are and also make a melee basic attack, and at a +1 bonus to hit even, helping to balance out the -2 you get for a melee attack around a corner. If you would like, you can roll that melee basic attack against the kobold - we will say you did it last turn. If somehow you manage to kill him with it, he won't make the attack that he pitifully missed anyhow. There's no reason not to roll it. Slinger 1 (the sentry you saw when you entered) is hidden and none of you can hear him. The translucent figure is the last place where you saw him but he might not be there now. Slinger 2 is taking cover behind a closed portcullis. Aukan and Thoradin can see him, but the rest of you can't. Attacks against him take penalties to hit because he has cover from the portcullis. If you are online and no enemies move between your turns, you can post your actions out of order, so any of you can act at this time.

Damage Aukan took a total of 15 damage this turn. Party health Merric: 22/22HP Chant: 28/28HP Erik: 32/32HP Aukan: 18/33HP Thoradin: 26/26HP

 

All the hidden enemies delay to let the slinger take another turn first and clear away. Most of them have delayed almost a whole round, but now that they are in a block they can go in any order they want.

Kobold Slinger 1
Minor Action: Use Kobold "Shifty" racial power to shift 1 square to J-3 as a minor action. This does not provoke an opportunity attack from Aukan.
Standard action: Glue Shot vs. Chant's AC: 7, natural 1 again! Miss again! Boy, this is not this kobold's day!
Move Action: Move into the alcove for cover and make a Stealth check to hide: 24. None of you are perceptive enough to hear what square he's in.

Kobold Skirmisher 2
Move Action: Move to J-4, losing stealth as soon as you see him.
Minor Action: Use Kobold "Shifty" racial power to shift 1 square to J-5. This does not provoke an opportunity attack from Aukan, but this triggers a readied attack from Merric.
Merric
Immediate Reaction: Sacred Flame vs. Skirmisher 2: 12 vs. Reflex, miss!
Kobold Skirmisher 2
Standard action: Spear attack vs. Aukan's AC: 7 vs. AC, yet another natural 1 automatic miss!

Kobold Skirmisher 1
Move Action: Move to H-6.
Minor Action: Use Kobold "Shifty" racial power to shift 1 square to H-5. This does not provoke an opportunity attack from Aukan, and now he flanks Aukan together with Skirmisher 2
Standard action: Spear attack vs. Aukan's AC: 16 vs. AC, 7 damage

Kobold Skirmisher 3
Move Action: Move to J-4, losing stealth as soon as you see him.
Standard action: Spear attack vs. Aukan's AC: 25 vs. AC (Aukan had cover against this attack from the wall corner, which was not included in the dice but should have been), 8 damage

Kobold Slinger 2
Move Action: Walk to G-8. Aukan and Thoradin can see him, but the rest of you can't. Being behind the portcullis grants him Superior cover (-5 to hit) against melee attacks and cover (-2) from ranged attacks.
Standard action: Sling attack vs. Aukan's AC: 10 vs. AC, miss!

[Stiyl]

Erik sees Aukan surrounded and mumbles, "Always the brash one" Erik then leaps into action. He moves to a better position and strikes out at Aukan's attackers with dark power. Arching shadows stream from Erik's right hand and plunge into the kobold's chest.

Chant curses as the kobolds appear from their hiding places. Apparently, Chant had not considered the difference between smart and clever when he took the job. Drawing a dagger, he rushes to the barbarians aid. "Aukan, I think it will be better if we kill them quickly, one at a time. The faster they die the less they can stab us!" Chant stabs at the lone skirmisher in the corner, watching the spear for any surprises.

The kobold's frightened screams echo through the chamber as Erik curses it and drains most of its life force from its body, using it to feed his own power. He seems to grow stronger as he saps the little creature's energy, nearly killing it on the spot. "Help me, stop him! Stop them! Help!" he can hear the kobold scream in Draconic.

Chant goes around the other way, joining Aukan and boxing another kobold in with a sharp slash of his dagger. With so little room to maneuver, the creature cannot evade the attack. The small blade inflicts only a minor wound, but the kobold is clearly not happy at being pinned in the corner and its beady eyes dart around already looking for an escape path.

 

OOC Next time please post a link to the rolls you make, if it isn't too much trouble. You can put it under all your actions using the code: [url="click on the post number where you rolled the dice, then copy and paste the dice thread address at the top of the browser here"]Rolls{/url} remembering to change that to square brackets. It's not incredibly important but makes it easier to check if you didn't forget any bonuses you deserve or anything like that. You could probably put a bit more description into a power like that Stiyl, see how much I write. Really try to bring your characters and their powers to life! DMs will look at that kind of thing when they consider you for their games. On the other hand it's great that you talk to each other in combat and post quickly, so good job on that. Guarded Attack has an out-of-turn effect that takes place if you hit, right? If you forget to write that when you post your actions and status, I might forget to take it into account. Write everything that happens in case you hit. Again, you can check the enemy defenses to know that higher than 20 hits anything so Stiyl, you can already add to your temp. HP and that sort of thing. It's meant to make it easier for you. I will even post their hit points once you bloody an enemy, so you know when you have killed one and can roleplay appropriately.

[GeneralOfDarkness]

Aukan screams a gutteral angry roar;
The tiny, yet painful spears in his legs only served to further enrage the barbarian
Knowing he was surrounded he needed to buy himself time; flexing his muscles his focuses his energy to his skin; it becoming more stone-like and rigid

"Kord grant me strength to smite mine enemies!"

With greataxe cleft in hand he turns to the kobolt behind him (h-5) to deliver a blow

Lets out a sigh as he goes after the barbarian watching him take some strikes, 'Silly Oaf probably didn't feel a thing'. Thoradin comes up right behind Aukan watching the melee play out. Sensing the first ones end is upon him he switches his gaze over to the second skirmisher then calls upon his divine powers to strike at the beast. A bright light shines down from above striking his foe. He spends a few extra moments trying to gather information on the creature shaking his head quickly coming up with nothing, 'Well that's a start i suppose, now lets get you patched up a bit big guy'. Focusing on his clerical work he mutters a spell healing his seemingly suicidal friend. Muttering to himself 'I swear theres not enough spells in the world...'

Moving to J-8 Merric takes aim at the Kobold #1 across the pit from him. Bring his hand forward he releases a bolt of shimering gold towards the kobolds chest. (Sacred Flame) With a brilliant aim the bolt slams into the Kobolds chest igniting him in holy flames screaming in draconian as he burns, a shimmering gold sparkle lights up Aukan granting him +3 Temp. HP (or a saving throw) making his wounds seem less apparant.
"That'll teach 'em!"
Merric cheers as the bolt conects to the Kobold.
"C'mon guys!" He says in a cheery, light hearted voice.

The goliath calls on the natural resilience of his race to turn away blows, his skin turning hard as stone, and strikes a glancing blow in revenge for the one that struck him. The impact moralizes him.

The armored clerics march in and lay waste to their enemies with beams of searing light. Thoradin's ray of holy light incinerates the already weakened enemy, for the first fatality of this adventure. Its body topples into the pit with a splash. He also takes the time to heal the barbarian with a short prayer, perfectly enough to restore him to full health and resilience. This will only teach him that it's safe to be reckless, the dwarf worries. He also examines the enemies, trying to figure out what manner of creatures they are. Thoradin is not sure this is really a kobold. He thinks it might be a young dragon, or a crocodile. Perhaps an armadillo. Those wield spears, right? It must be an armadillo.

Merric blasts the one trapped in the corner and attempts to transfer some restorative energy to bolster the goliath, but Aukan is already so invigorated from the rush of his own attack, the extra boost does nothing for him.

That seriously injured kobold seems to see they cannot defeat these large enemies easily, and clearly wants no more of this fight, but cannot escape past the portcullis because the adventurers have blocked the way. It painstakingly dodges and shifts past attacks, trying to pull back to the shadowed chamber beyond and holding its spear out to defend itself against further attack. Its companion slips away from the large group of enemies, darting around the pit to stab Erik and retreat after causing a minor scratch.

The near-death sentry pokes his head out of the chamber to fling a little white container of something at Erik, before dodging back in to hide. This time, it has finally learned to load its sling properly, and the unexpected attack crashes into Erik's legs. The pot shatters in pieces, covering the half-elf's legs with a softly glowing green substance that looks similar to that which fills the pit dominating this room. The sludge soon solidifies, sticking him fast to the ground: the warlock cannot move!

The slinger behind the portcullis realizes that they are being overwhelmed. It lobs a similar clay pot at Thoradin and retreats down the hall, either leaving its allies to their fate or calling for more reinforcements. You can see a lever embedded into the wall of that tunnel which the creature passes. The projectile shatters on the dwarf's armor and he too is stuck in place until he can free himself.

 

OOC At E-8 there is a lever, but only Small creatures can slip through the portcullis bars to reach it. Pulling it is a Minor action. Slinger 1 is hidden and none of you can see him, but Aukan can hear him and knows where he is. The translucent figure is the last place Aukan heard his footsteps. Slinger 2 is at the top of the stairs leading onwards. Merric and Thoradin can see him, but the rest of you can't. Ranged attacks against him take significant penalties to hit because he has cover. If you are online and no enemies move between your turns, you can post your actions out of order, so any of you can act at this time.

Damage Kobold Skirmisher 2 has been killed by two powerful attacks! Skirmisher 1 has taken 21 damage from many blows this round and is bloodied. Thoradin didn't specify where the 1 temp. HP goes and nobody needed a saving throw at that time, so it is lost. Merric gave Aukan 3 temp. HP but it doesn't stack with the 3 he already had, so it is wasted. Erik is hit for 7 damage, which exactly knocks out his temp. HP. He is also immobilized. Then he takes another 4 damage. Thoradin took 4 damage and got immobilized. Erik and Thoradin are Immobilized (save ends.) They cannot leave their spaces or be forced to move. At the end of their turn, they each must roll a saving throw, which is a d20 (without modifiers) to try to free themselves. Additional early saving throws can be granted by Sacred Flame or by First Aid checks, but Thoradin can't use either on himself. Party health Merric: 22/22HP Chant: 28/28HP Erik: 28/32HP, Immobile (save ends) Aukan: 33/33HP +3 temp. Thoradin: 22/26HP, Immobile (save ends)

 

Kobold Slinger 1
Minor Action: Use Kobold "Shifty" power to shift 1 square to I-3 as a minor action, with a Stealth check to remain hidden: 22. He is still hidden.
Standard action: Glue Shot vs. Erik's AC: 17 (being hidden grants CA), finally hit for 7 damage and Erik is immobilized.
Move Action: Move into the alcove for cover and make another Stealth check to hide: 14. Aukan is perceptive enough (Passive perception 15) to hear him moving around in there and figure out his position.

Kobold Skirmisher 1
Minor Action: Use Kobold Shifty racial power to shift 1 square to I-5. This does not provoke an opportunity attack from Aukan or Chant.
Move Action: Take a normal shift to J-5 without provoking an OA from Aukan. I wanted to move to J-4 but you can't move past a corner like that.
Standard action: Go on Total Defense, gaining +2 to all defenses until the start of his next turn.

Kobold Skirmisher 3
Move Action: Walk 6 squares around the pit to M-8.
Standard action: Spear attack vs. Erik's AC: 19 vs. AC, 4 damage
Minor Action: Use Shifty power to shift 1 square to N-8 without provoking an OA from Erik. (He probably doesn't know Erik's ranged attacks are more powerful than his melee attack.)

Kobold Slinger 2
Standard action: Gluepot attack vs. Thoradin's AC: 16 vs. AC, 4 damage and Thoradin is immobilized
Move Action: Walk with 6 move to the top of the staircase at C-9. Merric and Thoradin can see him, but he has Superior cover (-5) from ranged attacks owing to the portcullis and the corner.
