So the order is Vandar in front then Tibern, Lothar, Glen, and finally Bron.
The trail is small, little more than a game trail, there are many small branches too high to bother a goblin but low enough to be a constant annoyance to the party. But the day is pleasant and the forest serene.
After about 20 minutes travel Vandar notices that trail ahead is covered in a fresh carpet of leaves while the rest of the trail has be mostly cleared by the foot traffic of the goblins. He quickly recognizes the pit trap, and is able to guide the party around it.
Following the goblins’ trail, you come across a large cave in a hillside five miles from the scene of the ambush. A shallow stream flows out of the cave mouth, which is screened by dense briar thickets. A narrow dry path leads into the cave on the right-hand side of the stream.
As they got to the cave, Tibern slowed to a halt as he pondered if they should have left someone behind to keep a watch on the wagon. It was to late for that now though so he turned his thoughts to what the next step of the plan would be. "It would seem that we have found the sanctuary of the goblins. Shall we head inside or return to the task we were given by our employer?"
Lothar joins Tibern and Vandar as the main cave is found. Waiting for the others, he answers Tibern, “We recognize those horses, yes? If the dwarf is in here, he needs to be freed.”
" The dwarf is most likely dead, but I still we should head in to investigate it while exterminating this nest of pests." Bron drew greatsword before making his way into the cave.
The trail terminates on the west side of the stream flowing from the cave mouth, On the east side of the stream is a thick briar patch. There is a small gap in the briar near the cave mouth, and the dry path into the cave is on the east side. The stream is only ankle deep.
As soon as Bron draws his great sword the party hears the twang of two bowstrings from behind the briar.
One arrow is directed at Bron Attack: 23 Damage: 3

Lothar
Seeing the arrow cone at him and miss, Lothar starts to get angry. He detests goblins and orcs and is ready to spill more of their blood. He prepares for battle.

Tibern sighed as more arrows began to fly towards them, readying himself as he drew his rapier in a practiced motion. "I do so hate these miserable little beasts." He muttered, his tail whipping behind him once more.
You are only about 20 feet from the briar which is impassable except for the gap next to the cave mouth. the stream is easily crossed. both goblins are in cover behind the briars.

(Good enough)
Vandar charges through the gap in the briars by the spring and around toward the goblins, throwing his yklwa at the nearest one as soon as he gets close enough.
(Move around the briar to within 10 feet, throw my yklwa at the closest goblin. Attack: 12 Damage: 5)

Once Vandar had thrown his weapon, Tibern moved to a spot where he could see the first of the goblin archers, letting his magic gather as he began to cast. "You foolish creatures dare to attack us!? I will not tolerate such behaviors from cretins whose very existence is an insult to the very gods!" He focused on the same one that Vander had tried to bit,
(Roll for a dc 14 wisdom saving throw. If it hits 2 Also if I am able I would like to try and intimidate the one if it gets hit. Intimidation 18)
Vandar misses the goblin with his yklwa, which plants itself in the ground about a yard beyond the sneering creatures.
I really need everyone to wait until I have replied to the last preson's turn before you post your turn. Please be patient with me, I work a lot.
Tibern will have to take his turn again, also please tell me what spell you are casting not what checks I have to do, I will look that part up, you can however do the damage roll ahead of time like you did as that will just help speed things along.
SeaAg, I can not figure out how to post a picture on this forum. Cutting and pasting just dose not work no matter how I try it and I have no idea what to do with that insert/edit image button. If anyone can help me out with that, send me a PM. I would be happy to start adding some maps and such if I can get that figured out, but for now just do the best you can with my description and feel free to ask questions if you need any clarification.

(Do I have the movement to get around the briars at the gap and into melee? If not, can I attack through the briar? Half, 3/4 or total cover?)
You can get to the gap, and get a clean line of sight on the goblins, but they will be about 5 to 10 feet away from you.
(Good enough)

OOC: can we get a little sketch or something of our positions?
