The horses seem all to willing to go around the area, almost suspiciously so. As you begin to steer the wagon off the road and into the grassy plains, you realize the grass is much higher than you thought. Reaching halfway up the wheels you carefully steer your way through the area.

Perception: 6

Fen is also looking for other people. 

Rweni is distracted by Soloth as he maneuvers the cart off to the far side on the road and the high grasses obscure some of her vision. ”Will do, Soloth. So far I’m not seeing any threat, let alone any passengers either.  It could be abandoned.”  Rweni still steadies her crossbow in an en garde position as they begin to pass the overturned carriage.

Perception: 6

Andarel glances forward to the site of the wagon when her group mention it. As the wagon veers off the road, the little goblin stands up and eyes the grass... "If wagon ambush, grass is where ambushers hide. Could be days old, draft animals gone." Despite her words, she loosens her arms and safely puts away her book, hands not wavering far from her sword hilts as she hunkers down in the wagon, only her head popping up.

"I can't see anyone. I think we may as well go," Fen says as he watches cautiously around. 

As you all move through the tall grass, a cry for help comes from the carriage. "OH DEAR SUNE, STAY AWAY, STAY AWAY!"

Rweni’s half-elven ears catch the mournful plea of her Goddess’ name. ”Soloth! Hold up!” 

Without waiting for Soloth to slow the wagon down, Rweni immediately jumps into action without regard for her own safety. The heavy mail armor chains clink against each other as she makes her way to the cries of Sune. She raises her crossbow looking for the victim as well as the aggressor. “Whomever is threatening a follower of Sune, show yourself and stand down, lest you be felled!”

As you approach the carriage you notice a swarm of kobolds trying to force their way in by bashing the door with a rock. As they notice you, some of them take off, disappearing into the tall grass while the others prepare for a fight.

Rweni doesn’t get far before the kobold’s jump into view. She fires her crossbow and pulls her flail out ((2-hand fighting)) to swing at the closest charging kobold

crossbow:  Attack: 3 Damage: 2

flail: Attack: 24 Damage: 14

"I knew something just had to be wrong about this," Fen says, but mostly to himself.

• If he sees any of his allies getting in melee range with a kobold, he will go there to assist. (for sneak attack)

Attack Dagger: 21 Damage: 5

Bonus Attack Dagger (two weapon fighting): 24 Damage: 1   

Sneak Attack: 3

• If nobody gets close to the kobolds, he will fire his shortbow at the nearest enemy.

Attack Shortbow: 7 Damage: 8

Trilaxa charges into the fray, trying to use thunderwave to clear the doorway of as many kobolds as possible.

DC 14 Con, 8damage

Andarel stands up, looking at the cluster of kobolds around the wagon, watching her new cohort charge into the fray. "Tricks first this time." She mutters something in a strange tongue, and slowly draws her hands together, turning at her elbows so they are almost laying horizontally in front of her. In the distance around the kobolds, the air seems hazy as a drift of fine sand blows through an area, a gentle hum accompanying it. The goblin ducks herself down into the cart.

Action: Cast Sleep - targeting a point catching as many kobolds as she can within the 20ft radius. 32hp of kobolds fall unconscious
Bonus: Hide (Stealth: 22)
Movement: Andarel will move as needed to increase cover within the cart

As a wave of thunder erupts from just above the carriage, killing 3 kobolds, and knocking four of them back a shriek of fear can be heard from inside. The carriage door remains closed, as Fen remains back, he fires an arrow hitting the bottom of the overturned carriage. As the arcane words leave Andarel's mouth, the six kobolds closest to the carriage fall unconscious, Andarel quickly ducks down, out of view, and within full cover. Soloth, quickly stopping the horses, takes aim and fires an arrow with his longbow at one of the still conscious kobolds, killing it instantly as the arrow pierces its skull, landing mere inches away from the one behind it. As Rweni's crossbow bolt hits the shield of the Kobold Dragonshield, who quickly blocks the incoming flail attack as well. In response, the Dragonshield quickly stabs at Rweni with its spear twice; Attack: 4 Damage: 3 Attack: 14 Damage: 4 . As the Dragonshield stabs at Rweni, the other kobold quickly loads a stone into its sling and hurls it towards Trilaxa Attack: 21 Damage: 3 .

The stone spins around in the air before slipping out of the sling early, hitting the ground near Trilaxa

End of the round I shall adjust HP now

Fen will try to get as close as possible to any conscious kobold and will attack it with his shortsword and his dagger. 

Attack S.Sword: 9 Damage: 10

Bonus Action Attack Dagger: 17 Damage: 3

If he can see kobolds alive, but can't get close enough for melee, he will shoot an arrow at them instead.

Attack S.bow: 12 Damage: 8

Rweni clutches her side, dropping her crossbow, wincing in pain. She steps back and swings her wicked looking flail. The chain clinks as the cylindrical head embedded with 1” conical spikes seeks the Dragonshield Kobold’s vulnerable body.

 Attack: 9 Damage: 7
