Yes, the Bugbear and Shaman are staying behind to complete the ritual.

OOC - Nate is up against the wall outside the goblin room about 5 feet from the ajar door.

Should we just attack these two as they come out? Would that give us a surprise round?)

I am going straight for the giril i will join in once she is safe

OOC: location 2nd in line so i can try and keep to the walls and make my way around to the cage

Quinn watches as the leader sends the two goblins to deal with the fake problem.

"Listen Sarris you don't know the extent of the problem, you will need more that two goblins to deal with this. You might even need to deal with this one yourself, this isn't a problem you can take lightly!" Quinn exclaims with concern on his face and irritation in his voice.

Persuasion Check: 15

"YOU DARE QUESTION ME!!!!! YOU TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM OR I'LL KILL YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY MYSELF!!!! GO!!!!!!!"

(Sarris raises a Dagger and throws it so that it sticks into the ground near Quinn's feet, showing that he could have hit you with it if he wanted to.)

Quinn, what do you do?

DMs note: As of right now, the Goblins are still in the room, ready to follow Quinn outside. If you attack them right as they exit you will get a surprise round but it's likely Sarris will be alerted.

Omnia, I need a little clarification on what you want to do. Remember the paint drawing: Sarris is now looking right at the door, since Quinn has his attention, so if you try to sneak to Bess right now you're going to have to roll a pretty spectacular Stealth Check.

Quinn reluctantly gets to his feet and shows the goblins the way out.

Brom looked at the others the goblins are coming out so he moves to the side of the door ready to spring on the two goblins. It was unlikely the the leader will leave this room so drawing him into the ambush is out of the question but taking out these two is just as good, so Brom is going to wait right next to the door for the goblins to come out and strike but not with his war hammer but instead with the two battle axes he keeps on his belt. (Now i can make two attacks because of Two Weapon fighting) Broms plan was to try and take out the goblins with one hit each.

First attack: 13

Damage: 4

Second attack: 12

Damage: 2

Omnia in that case is going to make a mad dash straight to the cage and attempt to free bess. No point in trying to be stealthy as they are all looking at the doorway now

For DM:

Also for DM:

(The first Goblin out is greeted with a swift attack from Brom, but the fortunes are smiling on that Goblin tonight, as the blade hits a metal part of his armor, narrowly saving his life! He yells out a bit and that is enough to give his partner a heads up, who quickly raises his shield and deflects the blade. Sarris roars as he sees what is happening, grabs his Warhammer and prepares to battle.)

"DO NOT STOP THE RITUAL! WE ARE SO CLOSE!"

Omnia, you're up on a surprise round. Slightly out of order but we'll follow Initiative from this point forward.

Omnia is sticking to the plan she is going to get to the cage and attempt to release Bess

Using theives tools to attempt to unlock the cage: 23

DMs note: Sorry for the delay, working OT last 2 days.

(Omnia rushes in and picks the lock for Bess’ cage, freeing her right in front of Sardis, who is enraged. It takes a few moments, however, so now Omnia is on her own, cut off from the rest of the party.)

Nate, you’re up.

Adrenaline rushes through Nate's body as he sees Brom's axes collide with the goblins armor and shield. He sees Omnia dart to Bess and then quickly returns focus to the goblins that are directly in front of him (the ones that Brom attacked). 

Nate will swiftly raise his two daggers into the air and bring both of them down on one of the goblins - attempting to stab both of the daggers downwards into the neck of the goblin. 

OOC - 2 weapon fighting is being used and I am attacking just one of the goblins with both attacks. 

First Attack: 17   Damage if applicable: 5

Second Attack: 13    Damage if applicable: 1

(Nate raises his daggers and attacks one of the Goblins, stabbing him in the neck with his first thrust, but missing with the second. The Goblin howls in pain and starts spurting blood from his wound.)

Quinn, you're up.

Quinn walks the goblins to the slaughter. The moment they step outside the room it all erupts with the attacks of his companions and cries of the goblins. Quinn spins on his heel drawing his rapier in a single motion and strikes at the bloodier of the two goblins.

Attack: 18 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

(Quinn goes to finish off the injured Goblin, but his rapier is stopped by his shield.)

Idalie, you're up.

DMs note: I'm sorry for the slow pace, guys. It's one of the drawbacks of PbP. Thanks for making it this far.

Aware that Omnia is now cut off from the rest of them and remembering her promise, Idalie ignores the two nearest goblins for now. Instead, she takes aim at the robed goblin next to the alter. She'd meant it when she said she didn't like the looks of him. 

Attack: 20 Damage: 9

Occ: No worries stiffkick! It's been a blast so far. Even if the dice rolls aren't always on our side. ^^'

OOC: I second that! I'm still having a blast with this game.

And these bad dice rolls just make it interesting :)

Im really having fun with this, plus pbp is better for me in a way because i doubt id have 3 to 4 hours of down time to play in an actual game.)

(Idalie shoots her arrow at the Shaman Goblin, who continues to mutter and concentrate on the spell. The arrow misses wide by a couple of feet.)

"Aaaaaaargh!"

(The unhurt Goblin finally gathers his wits enough to try to take a stab with his sword at Quinn.)

Attack: 11 Damage: 5

(Quinn manages to dodge the attack.)

(The Bugbear roars as he realizes he's about to lose his sacrifice. He throws his Javelin at Omnia.)

Attack: 21 Damage: 12

(The Javelin strikes Omnia right in the stomach! Omnia is down and unconscious! Sarris laughs menacingly...)

"Weak fools! You're dead! You're all dead! I'll kill you all myself!"

Omnia, please roll a straight d20 (no modifiers) as a Death Saving Throw.

Nate, you're up after that.

DMs note: Sorry, Omnia, the dice rolls that way sometimes. You are not dead, you are considered unconscious.
