Gallia Campaign 1

Gimble releases an exhale of relief as the spell washes over him. “Thanks. And I was trying to say that earlier about the uniforms, we may have been able to avoid all this. Now, I don’t know what choices we really have.” 

@ Gerrack, you were able to bandage the goblin up a bit.

@ Misty, no magical auras are detected from any of the items you have looted.

@ everyone, (OOC: what is everyone doing?)

(OOC: date July 24th. time 1:02 p.m. [reminder the party hasn't had their second meal of the day, not that i am suggesting you have it now].)

(OOC: quests in the spoiler below)

Gimble says to the group, “Well I think, unless we come back with double the forces, because now they know they’ll know we were here, we should press on.”

"Do any of us think we can pass off the look of one of these guys? Im afraid I dont believe I have the height for it..."

"I-I-I agree with S-Sildar, that w-we should r-retreat.  A-a-and we should t-take this g-g-goblin with us," Gerrack says.  If everyone has decided to gather bodies together, Gerrack will assist with that, searching the corpses for any loot first.

Investigation: 4

Misty is on the fence so could be swayed to stay or to leave.

 (OOC: the racial composition of the bandits have been reflecting the racial composition of the area, mostly human, but some dwarves and some halflings)

@ Gerrack, Gimble and Misty have searched the bodies and the room thoroughly. check post #2144. it was mostly money and gear but a few other items were found.

@ everyone, (OOC: what is everyone doing?)

"If we stay we might be able to finish this off, though I would hope that there wouldn't be too many more of these bandits in here, as this city has bigger problems if there is an army of bandits hiding out in it." She shrugs though.  "If there are many more though I fear we won't survive the clearing of the complex..." She leaves it up to the others as to which way to go. 

“Alright, then let’s pull back, get some reinforcements and return in strength,” Gimble says as he stands.

(Oh, let's say that roll was for Gerrack collecting his arrows back, haha)

"I-I shall require a s-short rest before we continue i-inside," Gerrack says, pointing at his wounds (3 HP currently).  "And as I h-have said b-before, I have n-not seen a s-single A-arakocran b-bandit here y-yet, so I b-believe the d-disguise w-will not w-work for me r-regardless.  I-it would have to b-be a f-full out a-a-assault, and n-nothing else f-for me.  Unless y-you w-wanted me to m-masquerade as a p-p-prisoner.  In any c-case, I b-believe we s-should q-question this g-goblin first.  G-niff, if you w-would?  He l-likely trusts you the m-most, since you d-defended h-him."  

(OOC: okay, lets put it to a vote, stay and fight, fall back and recover, or a different option?)

Gniff says to the group, "We should at least catch our breath somewhere safe. Try and jam this door closed to buy us time. On our return, I will don a uniform to at least cause some indecision or confusion." He turns to the goblin, speaking in common, "Hi, I am Gniff. Can you understand me? I hope so, we are leaving here and would like for you to come with us. Perhaps you can tell us why you were here on the way?"

(I vote at least a short rest outside)

"If we jam this door shut maybe we can take time to tend to our wounds in here? Though i suppose that could be risky still..." Branch looks around the room to see if he can see anything good for jamming the doors shut "Tell you what though, either way I think we should move all those bodies of the bandits to a location where it doesnt feel like were leaving a trail."

(Gerrack would vote for a short rest inside and push on.)

"W-we could bring all the b-bodies to the c-chasm, someone c-could don a uniform and w-wait outside this r-room, a-and if a b-bandit came by to c-check on us, w-we could s-say t-there was t-trouble with the e-eyeball o-outside, a-and y-you're g-guarding the p-prisoner w-while the o-others w-were dealing w-with the d-d-disturbance, a-and t-that they n-need h-help.  It m-might buy u-us enough t-time to r-rest in this r-room."

"Very well, a short rest here and then let's get this finished."  Misty confirms.  She would help secure their location and then rest to regain some of her magic and her health.

 @ Gniff, the goblin regains consciousness. Droop: (to Gniff) "Who are you? What happened?"

 @ Branch, the only objects you see are the four beds in the room.

 @ everyone, Sildar: (to the party) "Whoever does this guarding in disguise job should be a persuasive speaker, and that isn't something i'm best at."

 @ Misty, the only objects in the room that could secure the door is the beds. The party did loot a key, so trying the key on the door is an option. if you are moving one of the beds to block the door, give me a strength check.

@ everyone, (OOC: the majority of the votes is to short rest in the room you guys are in. feel free to correct me if i'm wrong. It does sound like we need to decide who the look out in disguise is. If we do have a short rest, Gniff will have a play as quinn section. [for those of you who may need reminding, quinn is Gniff's deer friend, who is outside the bandit hideout.])

(OOC: date July 24th. time 1:03 p.m. [reminder the party hasn't had their second meal of the day, if the party manages to secure the room it might not be a bad idea].)

(OOC: quests in the spoiler below)

(Misty is not moving a bed, she would try the key though.)

 @ Misty, Misty tries the key on the door. the key fits into the key hole, and upon turning it, there is a click, locking the door. the room is currently locked.

@ everyone else, (OOC: read the last post)

“Well I could don the outfit and play guard if ya want. Although I don’t know how well I’m feeling as a whole.” Gimble mentions to the group.

"Why don't we switch out half way through Gimble? That way we can both feel secured that we took a break," Gniff recommends.
