Sildar notices something not quite right with the atmosphere. However his Insight was low as well so even he can't quite see whats up ahead.
Sildar: Any of you chaps mind helping me off the wagon. I am going to investigate the area.
Investigation: 10
He notices a mass of something in the distance but can't quite make out what it is.
Sildar: I am not quite sure what that is in the distance. I don't have any googles or scopes in which to look through. Would anyone be so kind as to see what it is?
If you are staying behind that is fine. If you are going to move forward make an investigation check.
Alright guys, so this is going to be the part in the game where a third party member joins you guys. As soon as Cairn helps Sildar down, a small figure in the distance seems to be picking up speed and coming there way. Without a moments notice Sildar gets his melee weapon in hand to be ready if danger is a foot.
Sildar: Hello, you there? Are you friend or foe? How can we help you?
While wait just to speed up this part of the game, this part of the game requires quite a bit of skill checks. Be prepared once the other character joins you guys.
Alright the character is walking at a brisk pace so we will continue our journey for now. While Sildar is waiting for the new member, you two are approaching what looks to be a goblin trap in the middle of the trail. Thanks to your keen insight you have detected it without setting it off. The pit is about 6 ft wide, 10 ft deep, and is triggered when someone crosses.
As the sight of him is made clear to the others a 6 feet tall, handsome short white hair and reddish lilac eyes Drow, clad in neatly adorned clothes and studded leather armor with details in silver and purple colors approaches. A large adventurer's backpack on his back, rapier sheathed on his hip, a dagger strapped on his thigh and a very small and uncommon crossbow on the other side.
miling and ignoring any eventual looks or whispers addressed to him he addresses the stocky fellow who greeted him.
Bows at no one in particular: "Greetings. I had heard about your enterprise back at the inn. Since I had some matters to attend to, it took me a while to get on track. Ree'lyn, at your disposal."
Sildar: My you are an adventurer. I am Sildar nice to meet you. Flyn and Cairn are up a little ways investigating something. I am not sure what it is. You might want to go up and check.
ehh. I can smell the goblin filth about this thing. Think we should disarm the trap, or throw a stone and set it off? Surely the ones who made this will come runnin.
You notice the trap has already been disarmed and you smell something rotting down below. The oxen stopped because they could smell a dead body at the bottom of the trap.
You need to do an investigation check to see who it is, then you can do a skill check with the tinderbox to burn it. Keep in mind this area has been to know to be swarming with goblins.
Reel'lyn you arrive to find Flyn and Cairn have come across a goblin trap with a body inside. Cairn would like to loot the body. Do you have any objections or what are your thoughts?
to Reel'yn: You notice the body right away, it is the body of the male gnome and Tymoran priest named Yingle Yawnbringer who was traveling from Neverwinter to Phandelin to help Sister Garaele with a problem. Unfortunately, his journey ended here. But before he could loot the body he heard two riders approaching forcing them to cover the trap and flee.

"Well if we don't get them moving again we are never going to get this delivery finished."
Flyn climbs up into the driver's seat to see if he can find any reason for the holdup. On the request of Sildar Flyn helps the Dwarf down.
"I suppose I can head up ahead to see what that is."
Investigation 21
((Sorry Posted at the same time so changed this post to work with the latest post.))
((The manipulated roll was that I removed the possible Animal Handling Roll and reroll an Investigation as requested))

Cairn will also ready a hand ax and his shield as they approach.
Investigation: 6

Roll for Investigation
As the sight of him is made clear to the others a 6 feet tall, handsome short white hair and reddish lilac eyes Drow, clad in neatly adorned clothes and studded leather armor with details in silver and purple colors approaches.

Sildar sizes Ree'lyn up and down.
Sildar: My you are an adventurer. I am Sildar nice to meet you. Flyn and Cairn are up a little ways investigating something. I am not sure what it is. You might want to go up and check.
Investigation for Cairn: 14

You notice the trap has already been disarmed and you smell something rotting down below. The oxen stopped because they could smell a dead body at the bottom of the trap.
(Id like to pull the body up and loot it, then burn it. What rolls would you need? Strength, investigation, and a skill check with a tinderbox?)
You need to do an investigation check to see who it is, then you can do a skill check with the tinderbox to burn it. Keep in mind this area has been to know to be swarming with goblins.
"Alright, good dwarf. I will make sure to use your name to push away any mistrust that might awake in them."
Reel'lyn leaves down the road.
Reel'lyn you arrive to find Flyn and Cairn have come across a goblin trap with a body inside. Cairn would like to loot the body. Do you have any objections or what are your thoughts?

Caurn eyes the drow for a minute, then nods.

Ree'lyn addresses the two individuals with the wave of his hand and a nod
"Sildar told me I would find you. The name is Ree'lyn. I do recognize this one. This is a Tymoran priest named Yingle Yawnbringer."
"Go ahead and relieve him from his material uselessness."
Cairn: You are able to successfully loot Yingle You gain a Bead of Replenishment. Is there anything else you guys would like to do?
