Glynt says to the rest of the party "I don't think this is something we need to deal with right now ... let's close this door again and carry on through the door to the west" and in saying that I make an action for the others to go first, keeping my place at/near the back keeping as far away from any sharp pointy things ahead as possible.
Crudely executed symbols and glyphs, scribed in bright green dye, decorate this large and irregularly shaped crumbling chamber. A large pit in the center shows evidence of a recent fire. A metallic cage in the middle of the southern wall contains a gaping hole and stands empty. A small wooden bench draped with green cloth is next to the cage, and several small objects rest on it. A bedroll lies near the wooden bench, and the sound of whimpering comes from inside it.
(I will post a link to the next map in the OOC thread. By the way, I can't seem to turn off the bold.)
(That bold thing is annoying. I have had it before. If it happens near the beginning, I tend to just delete everything and start again by refreshing the page)
Portiahad been hanging back, not feeling her skills were suited to the keg. A large room on the other hand is her territory. She follows Xanth in and upon hearing a noise, suggests to him "Xanth, someone or something seems to be under there. In case they are hostile, you should probably be the one to take a look, and we can be ready for a fight, hoping that one doesn't break out." while she has her weapons ready to fight if it is a trap.
XANTH will see a small humanoid with dragon-like features pop out from under the blanket, "Oh myzz, top-siderzz." The small creature stands in a more uncertain than in any aggressive or hostile manner.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
I'll wave pack and offer some food to it.
While it is talking I will poke around the room looking at the things on the bench, checking if there's anything under the cloth on the bench and generally trying to get a feel for what this room is and how many creatures normally live in here - Investigation:16
Responding to PORTIA, “Hidingz? No. Meepo notz hidingz. Meepo sadzz. The clan’z dragonz… weez lost itz. The wretched goblinzz stolez Calcryx, ourz dragonzeez!”He looks over at the metallic cage with the gaping hole. “Meepo waz Calcryx keeperz.” PORTIA will notice numerous scars on this small dragon-like humanoid’s body.
Meepo graciously accepts some food from GLYNT. He looks at it carefully, then sniffs it and takes a bite, “Itz goodz. Notz az goodz az boiled ratz, butz itz goodz. Thankzeez.”
GLYNT will notice symbols on the walls crudely formed in Draconic. The metallic cage is all but destroyed and can’t be used to restrain captives. Investigating the cage reveals white scales lying on the floor. The bench serves as a sort of tiny altar. Resting on it are containers of green dye, a paintbrush made of goblin-hair bristles, and four tiny jade figurines of dragons.
It appears that only Meepo and what was in the cage was all that lived in this area. There are a number of doors and a passage way off this room.
'ello there, so goblins stole your dragon? Have you two humans running around down here, a male and female? ooc - sorry I've been away a few days, got real sick and was limited to bed rest, but back at it now.
Meepo will look at RAGDOR, "Ize dontziz knowz. Butz Yusdrayl doez. Ize takez youz to meetzez Yusdrayl, ourz leada, if youz makez nicez. Youz getza safe pazzage, if yeez promiz to makez nicez. Maybeez if youz promiz to rezcu ourzeez dragonz, Yusdrayl will makez nize to youz and anser quezshens."
"Yusdrayl speechez top-siderz speechez az goodez Meepo."

Glynt will mutter to himself "How on Toril do Goblins steal a DRAGON?!!!" and tries to hide his nervousness at the thought of a Dragon wandering around ... knowing that they will have bigger teeth than the Giant rats that are already proving formidable enough.
I'm going to have a look at the scales, and look at the size and shape of cage and the hole to roughly gauge how big a Dragon we are talking about here Investigation18
Meepo will look at RAGDOR with a confused expression, "Itz greatz to ownz dragonz."
Meanwhile, GLYNTwill determine not only the size but the kind of Dragon that was taken. As to how the Goblins took it, GLYNTwill not fully be able to discern that, but likely there were many Goblins involved.
Meepo will look at everyone excited at the prospect, "If youz promiz to rezcu ourzeez dragonz, Yusdrayl will makez nize to youz and anser quezshens. Youz willz helpz rezcu dragonz. Yez?" He will hesitate in thought, "if yeez promiz to makez nicez."
Glynt will step away from Meepo and quietly chat to the rest of the party members "It might be nice not to have every monster in this place hunting us down, if a deal could be struck it might make moving around a bit easier and get some answers as to the two we are looking for. The big question is can we trust this guy and his people?"

(ooc-Good idea Glynt. Good decision by the way.)

Xanth will go over to the bed roll. "Hello, can we talk?"
XANTH will see a small humanoid with dragon-like features pop out from under the blanket, "Oh myzz, top-siderzz." The small creature stands in a more uncertain than in any aggressive or hostile manner.
Yes we are from the surface. I am Xanth. Who are you?
“Hize Zzanth, youz bigz.” He looks over at PORTIA, “Youz not bigz.” He gives a friendly wave to RAGDOR and GLYNT, “I’mz Meepo.”
Portia heads over "Hi, I'm Portia. Who are you hiding from?"

"When you say dragon, are you taking about a very big scaly winged creature that breathes out fire? An actual living one?"

Meepo responds to PORTIA, “Yez. Dragonz. Livingz. Scalez. Wingz. No firez tho. Spitz icez." Meepo weeps, "Wicked Goblinzeez stole itz."
'ello there, so goblins stole your dragon? Have you two humans running around down here, a male and female? ooc - sorry I've been away a few days, got real sick and was limited to bed rest, but back at it now.
(OOC-Welcome back. Hope you are feeling better.)

Sounds good to me, mates? looks around at his fellow adventures...Say Meepo, what them goblins want with your dragon?
