About an hour later, you hear a commotion from outside the front gate, near which you are resting. You hear a deep voice yelling, and while you can't make out everything, you hear something about "prisoners" and a "champion".
The party heads towards the front gate to investigate the disturbance, running into the Governor on the way. As you approach the portcullis, you see a large figure standing about 80 yards away from the gate, firelight flickering on his blue scales. Wicked claws sprout from the ends of his fingers, and dragonesque eyes peer out above his muzzle. Fanned out behind him is a line of kobolds. The kobolds prod four human prisoners - a woman, a teenage boy, and 2 children - with their spears.
Seeing the Governer and adventurer's approach, he starts speaking again.
“Defenders of Greenest! This has been a successful night, and I am feeling generous. Do you see these four pitiful, useless prisoners? We have no need for them, so I will trade them back to you. Send out your best warrior to fight me, and you can have these four in exchange.”
"Tana!" One of the defenders nearby gives out a cry and tries to rush towards the prisoners, but is held back by Escobert and a few of the others nearby. He continues to cry out wordlessly in rage and frustration.
The governor turns to the group, a weary and pained look on his face. “My friends, you’ve demonstrated your prowess all through this frightful night. I realize this is an awful burden to ask you to bear, but any of you has a better chance to defeat that horror than my militia have.”
Looking past the figure, you see 16 kobolds in a curved line threatening the prisoners with spears. In the distance beyond that is various groups that have been set up outside the keep to keep anyone from leaving.
Pops raises his eyebrows at Dawn's comment and says, "Um, young man. You are a great archer with incredible skill, but I would like to put this champion battle on one of our heavier companions."
Dawn spends a few minutes collecting two of his arrows he shot.

About an hour later, you hear a commotion from outside the front gate, near which you are resting. You hear a deep voice yelling, and while you can't make out everything, you hear something about "prisoners" and a "champion".
Dawn suggests that we go investigate
Pops stirs awake, "What's this now?"
I got alot a doods
Maythus heads to the front door and yells through "what do you want"
Dawn will follow Maythus, with his bow ready if there is trouble.

Just one on one? Well I can’t let innocents die without trying I would be willing to face him.
Rockcrusher lvl 2 Goliath Barbarian Horde of the Dragon Queen

Dawn looks out to see if there are any other enemies around. Perception 12
Looking past the figure, you see 16 kobolds in a curved line threatening the prisoners with spears. In the distance beyond that is various groups that have been set up outside the keep to keep anyone from leaving.
Dawn volunteers to fight the scum, as he may be in better shape than Rockcrusher.
Pops raises his eyebrows at Dawn's comment and says, "Um, young man. You are a great archer with incredible skill, but I would like to put this champion battle on one of our heavier companions."
I got alot a doods
Maythus looks at Pops after looking down at himself, "Are you saying I am fat?"
Pops doubles down on his statement. "Yes Maythus. Not only are you fat but you are fat enough to win!"
I got alot a doods
Maythus raises a skeptical eyebrow, "I know what your doing, but I will win anyway."
(Just gotta decide which of you is actually fighting, since 3 of the 4 of you have volunteered :P)
