Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

Sadly, the only thing close enough that was usable and not covered in goblin gore was a piece of her own clothing as she tore off her sleeves and proceeded to wrap them tightly around what parts were bleeding badly.

((Roan is stabilized, but still unconscious at -1 HP))

Roan's Fortitude Save
Roan's Reflex Save

The blast hits Roan superficially mostly as the heat and force pushed him back to hit the ground hard with a few shard to pierce his skin. He had cuts over his body and several burns had formed over his skin, yet it looks like it was no where near as bad as it could have been. Never the less, the wounds were too great for the man as he was knocked unconscious and lay helpless on the ground.

The final explosion that torn apart his leader left the lone goblin by Silver react with shock. It started backing away a few steps as it dropped it's jagged blade onto the ground.

"Me give up! Me give up!"

Apparently not wanting to see if the longshanks would accept his surrender, the goblin tuned and fled back into town, though might not have much luck running there as well.

When the battle was finally over, the young Aldern rose from behind the barrel with hesitation and nervous energy coursing through his veins. Though the danger had passed, the man looked as if he'd crumble at any second from just a harsh wind. Yet in an instant as his eyes fell upon silver, his demeanor changed to one of proud confidence as his stature seemed to actually fit one of his station. With a puffed out chest, he strolled up to Silver and gave a humble bow.

"My dear! I must say you and your companions fought valiantly! Surely one of your grace and skill must be nobleborn, after all such beauty could possibly not be common."

Without even asking for permission, he took her hand and bent down slightly to give the back of it a kiss from his lips before turning towards everyone else, although his gaze still turned left and right in anxiety as if he expected a goblin to pop out at any second.

"As for the rest of you, I must offer all the chance to reward you properly for saving my life! I'll be staying at the Rusty Dragon for a few more days so don't hesitate to call on me!"

Weather he had things to attend to or just wished for a safer place to be, he turned around and hurried towards the center of town.

((Roan takes 5 damage and is now Unconscious at -1 HP and bleeding out. Goblin 6 has retreated. The battle is won!))

The bomb seemed to move in slow motion as the Commando seemed to watch it for what felt like an eternity to it. It seemed rather unfair really. No more fire to wave about and admire, no more food to eat, no more wonderful songs to sing and worst of all...

"Me only regret... no more dogs to kill..."

The flask hit the commando dead center in it's forehead as it and the commando's head exploded in a force that spread out, it's disgusting bits going all over the place. The goblin dog, in it's haste to attack Roan didn't see the explosion come either as shards of glass and raging fire deciamted it;s body to a rather pathetic whine to die on the ground.

The only problem that remained was... Roan too was caught in the blast!

((Goblin Commando is dead! Goblin Dog is dead! Roan must make both a Fortitude save and a Reflex save. Be sure to indicate which is which))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

The halberd stabs through the goblin clean and gives Yobi a rather disturbing sight of seeing a skewered Goblin right in her face. Still, people would say better it was skewered then attacking her. With a few shakes and a toss, the goblin corpse flings off and lands on the ground harmlessly.

The Goblin near Silver tries to attack Silver with it's blade, but not only did it's over-eagerness cause it to miss, but it shifted it's weight around to cause it's big head to throw it off balance and hit the ground! It gets back up, but it looks slightly out of it and wobbling slightly.

Roan however is not so lucky. The growling of the Goblin Dog turns towards him with a fierce growl. Baring it's teeth, it pounces onto Roan and delivers a hard, deep bite on his side! What's worse, it holds on for a god long while, letting it's jagged teeth go in deep in his gut, shaking him around a fair bit and letting him down on the ground. It seemed poised to attack again and Roan might not be able to handle another attack like that!

((Goblin 4 is dead! Goblin 6 makes a Critical Fumble! Roan takes 8 damage and must Roll a Fortitude Save! Rissi is now up!))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

The goblin before Yobi let out a cackle before raising it's jagged blade towards it's mouth to slowly lick the blade.

"Fox lady should stick to being chased! Only thing you good for!"

It then lashed out with it's blade, cutting deep across her thigh. Quite painful and bled hard, though thankfully was not near a large vein to cause her to bleed out.

((Yobi takes 2 damage! Dhalgren is up!))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

This time, Roan's swing struck true as the blade promptly lopped off the goblin's head with one clean swipe. The body stood there for a moment, spurting blood out of the top before it as well as the head both fell down onto the ground with sickening plops, drizzling the ground with their inner fluids.

((Goblin 3 is dead! Yobi and Silver are up!))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

The bomb hits the goblin commando with a force as it sets quite a bit of the creature on fire as it tries to flail it's arms all over and smack itself all over to try to put the fire out. The goblin rat started bucking like crazy until eventually the thing kicked the commando up and off it to fall on the ground.

The leader started to roll all over until the fire was out. Thankfully for it it did as it barely stood up, clearly on it's last legs.

It only smiled.

Reaching for his belt, it pulled out a vial bigger then it's own hand as it just ripped the cork out with it's teeth and chugged the potion inside! Like a miracle, the burns and open wounds all over the Goblin were healed! As if they never occurred!

((Goblin Rat makes Reflex save for only 2 Damage. Goblin Commando drinks Potion of Cure Moderate wounds and Heals fully. Roan is up!))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

To say the goblin Dhalgren died would be putting it lightly. The sheer force of the halberd's swipe came down across the goblin's shoulder, moved through it's body like a hot knife through butter, before coming out the other side and dropping the goblin in two pieces on the ground.

And you thought it smelled bad on the outside.

The goblin near Silver swiped out with it's jagged knife and cut across her arm. Deep enough to bleed, but ultiamtely would do no more then a scar in the long run.

((Goblin 5 is dead! Silver takes 1 damage! Rissi is now up!))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

The Goblin near Yobi also strikes out with it's jagged blade in response to the fox's attack, yet it's aim struck just as true as hers did. Clearly this battle was becoming not one of skill, but of attrition.

((Goblin 4 misses! Dhalgren is up!))

Rise Of The Runelords: Anniversary Edition!

The goblin looked on in fear as Roan seemed to almost carry a look of pleasure at the sight of killing such a creature. All ti could do was scream out in horror as the blade came down! Yet such a force came with a lack of aim as the tip of the blade just nearly missed the creature's chest by inches! Such a heavy blade clearly made aiming a little harder then normal blades, or maybe it was pure dumb luck.

The goblin just stood there in fear for a moment before leaping up and down in jest.

"Longshanks can't hiiiit, Longshanks can't hiiiiit!"

In it's ecstasy of still being alive, it reached out with it's jagged blade to swipe out at Roan's abdomen. Yet the blade didn't even come close as it's gaze was farther then it's reach.

"Damn damn damn!" It actually jumped up and down with each explitive as it to give it each more power. "Best three of five! Or are you coward Longshanks?!"

((Both Roan and the Goblin Miss! Yobi and Silver are up!))
