Allure takes a sack of scrolls and examines it closely.

Investigation: 18
Then, laving heard what others have to say, he adds:
"Personally, I don't think we utilize torture nearly enough. I could make him sing elvish hymns if we had more time... Okay. Boxey, if you can wake him, I'm sure I can scare or persuade him. Or, if it fails, I can just as easily make him talk. So go ahead, wake him up. And please, don't be gentle."
Zerxius, as quiet as night reaches the top of the turret. A quiver of 20 arrows rests against the stone as well as a sack of scrolls. This goblin ran away, seems he's out of sight.
Grabius reaches the top of the tower, where one goblin still cowers, expecting a frontal assault, not at all noticing the threat behind him.
The scrolls are weird guides on how to use seemingly basic items. How to swing a sword, how to open a door ect. They are written in goblin, but the pictures make it obvious. One scroll however, gives off an odd magical tinge. It too is written in goblin, but sports no pictures.
Boxey had wrapped up his mouth, so I think we were just waiting for someone to wake him up. Can I do that? Or do we need to improve his well-being somehow so that he's not unconscious?
Grabius stands up and backs away slightly to a nearby wall. He leans against it, splitting his attention between the goblin, the group, and mildly inspecting one of his daggers.
Boxey casts the cantrip Spare the Dying on the goblin, stabilizing him. She pushes him toward the middle of the group. "Alright you little bastard. If I take this gag off you, will you be nice and cooperate. If you scream to alert your friends, I'll bash in your face and send you to whatever cesspit of an afterlife you have."

I have an intelligence of six, I know what I'm doing.
"Thanks, I'll take it from here," Allure steps in, as his eyes become pools of darkness due to Thaumaturgy. His voice grows louder. "Listen here, and listen well. You have one chance only to walk out of here alive and it includes answering all the questions I have quickly and honestly. Fail to do so and you will die here, slowly. Do you understand?"
"I somehow thought you're smarter than you look," Allures tone was a bit disappointed. He let out a sadistic smile. "A pity. Tell me about the what awaits us ahead. How many of your comrades are inside and how many will we face before finally reaching the big man? Are there any traps? Defences?"
"Four? You're telling me there's we'll only encounter four guards ahead?" Allure is distrustful. He snaps his fingers and casts Fire Bolt, but does not release it, allowing spell to rest in his palm. "Think carefully or burn. And while we're on this, is there a way to get in past the guards?"
"Well then. Last question, unless my companions want to ask you something else. What does thos say?" Allure pulls out a scroll that gives off a magical aura and shows it to the goblin. "You should be able to read it."
Won't be able to post tomorrow, so ask your questions. Then Allure will chop the goblins head off.
"That only means you have outlived your usefulness," said tiefling and bared his handaxe. In one swift motion he cleft goblins head off. "There's that. Shall we proceed?"
I'm not making any rolls because the goblin is defenceless, so there is too few ways it could go wrong.
Pap dont forget you now have a sack of scrolls (no idea what they are)
Laissez les bons temps rouler

It's all good. It's fun to play good cop, short and angry cop.

The goblin gasped in shock and shivered for a long while before mustering the courage even to look at Allure.
"I-I wills answer!" The goblin whimpered. "Asks me and I wills tells you!"
"I somehow thought you're smarter than you look," Allures tone was a bit disappointed. He let out a sadistic smile. "A pity. Tell me about the what awaits us ahead. How many of your comrades are inside and how many will we face before finally reaching the big man? Are there any traps? Defences?"

"Th-there are beings four hobgoblin guards!" The Goblin spoke up. "Blurg has Leena, Leena is verys hungry! We dont's wants to meets her!"
Zerxius moves slightly behind the goblin absentmindedly cracking his knuckles

"It's true! we don'ts have many guards!" The goblin gasped, squirming. "The guardses are beings in the hall! No way is theres being past them!"
"Well then. Last question, unless my companions want to ask you something else. What does thos say?" Allure pulls out a scroll that gives off a magical aura and shows it to the goblin. "You should be able to read it."

The goblin squinted, then his expression turned into a shocked look.
"But we can'ts reads! We really can'ts!" The goblin gasped, terrified.
"That only means you have outlived your usefulness," said tiefling and bared his handaxe. In one swift motion he cleft goblins head off. "There's that. Shall we proceed?"
