"Seems like he has little time for arguments, I don't blame him. Why would something take your visage to dole out violence here? I assure you that none of my group have done this."
Bulpo glares at Naz'tog (who doesn't bother responding) for a short while before agreeing to to back to the village center.
Naz'tog shurgs to Serit's comment: "nobody knows if someone really did take my face. All we have his this one's friend saying he saw my face and I'm not convinced."
You go back to the village center. It is now quite empty and you can hear sounds of some goblins barricading themselves inside their houses. A few goblins have taken up arms and are going towards the wall.
Moxo will go on to question just why exactly this is our problem. Haven't we done enough for the goblins? What is our goal and why? ((Moxo was not there at the beginning and doesn't quite get why we're trying to prop up a strong potential enemy. For everyone not part of his team is a potential threat to Moxo. And goblins and kobolds don't exactly have a harmonious relationship anyway... Not that he's had direct problems with goblins but he has heard stories.))
Moxo is going to assist the party however he can. They rescued him, he's kind of decided they're his new group since he has no kobolds left. He may not understand but he will do what he can...
"Well Moxo, the Job we got, was to make sure that the Goblins here survive and prosper. The challange is that with the big village here there is no leadership and the village is drifting into anarchy wich makes it vulnerable to outside attacks. I think we should split up and search and shadow those who may be targets. Idealy try to stay in small groups. Rohin and Serit would you watch over Naz'tog in case he gets attacked or he is attacking someone. I don't have the patience to deal with him right now. Moxo and i will try to find and watch the others."
If everyone agrees Gara will go and try to find Hegar, Bulpa, Briz'nat, Klurg and Glurk, Nassar and Gathrik. Telling everyone to stay in small groups of three to be safe in case of an attack by a monster that either can fly or teleport.
Gara is too tired to find anything (besides Bulpo, who is still with the group, although glaring at Naz'tog constantly). Perhaps someone else will have better luck?
You do notice as you look around that the goblins are certainly in better shape than when you first found the village. They may be barricading, but only because they were ordered to, and those strong enough to carry weapons are going to man the walls to look out for the beast.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Things look good here but Gathrik and Nasaar missing is disconcerting. Let me take a look around see if I can rustle them up. Let's go find our kin Naz'tog," Serit says as he begins his search for the missing goblinoids.
Serit, although you do not see Gathrik or Nasaar, you see some goblins talking about Hegar bringing weapons and armor from his shop for those wanting to arm themselves. The goblins think he would definitely win the third contest with such a large offering. Hegar then said that that there is better stuff still in his shop and he could lend to "those who are strong". Perhaps Nasaar and Gathrik are there.
Naz'tog frowns: "since when is the merchant so generous?"
Bulpo seems overjoyed: "come, come, I am sure Hegar has great things for you too!"
"Call me overly cautious and paranoid but it feels like a trap," Serit mumbles just as Moxo runs off. "Blasted kobold! Be careful!" He moves off after Moxo but slower and with caution.
Moxo is well aware it could be a trap and will be doing using his Perception/Investigation skills once he reaches the shop. He is familiar with at least some physical traps from his time back in the Kobold Warrens. But the best way to reveal a trap is to spring it...
You get to Hegar's shop. It appears to be open, and the light from some candles can be seen in the window, but you you do not hear the noise you would expect from all the customers.
First Moxo will peer through the windows, see what is to be seen. Then, if nothing alarming or curious, he will go slowly to the door and gently push it open as he stays to one side....
Gara looks at both, shakes his head , turns around and walks away.

Does anyone want to do anything else?
You go back to the village center. It is now quite empty and you can hear sounds of some goblins barricading themselves inside their houses. A few goblins have taken up arms and are going towards the wall.
You do not see the contestants in your vicinity.
Serit will look for his companions, attempting to get Gara, Moxo and Rohdin together in the center of town.
I believe Moxo is with Serit? He'd tag along, confused by exactly what was happening and what our role in it was...
„Any suggestions beside slaping some sense into them?“ Gara asks when they are alone.

"MaybeLetThemSortItOut? IfYouWantToRunGoblinVillageThenRunItAndDon'tPropUpSomeoneElse?"

You have no problem gathering, but you see no sign of Gathrik and Nasaar.

Investigation? To find them: 7

"Things look good here but Gathrik and Nasaar missing is disconcerting. Let me take a look around see if I can rustle them up. Let's go find our kin Naz'tog," Serit says as he begins his search for the missing goblinoids.
Perception: 15

Bulpo seems overjoyed: "come, come, I am sure Hegar has great things for you too!"
“FreeWeaponsAndArmor?” Moxo asks eagerly. “I’llCheckItOut!” With that, Moxo rushes off to do that!
"Call me overly cautious and paranoid but it feels like a trap," Serit mumbles just as Moxo runs off. "Blasted kobold! Be careful!" He moves off after Moxo but slower and with caution.
Moxo is well aware it could be a trap and will be doing using his Perception/Investigation skills once he reaches the shop. He is familiar with at least some physical traps from his time back in the Kobold Warrens. But the best way to reveal a trap is to spring it...
I assume everyone else follows Moxo and Serit.
You get to Hegar's shop. It appears to be open, and the light from some candles can be seen in the window, but you you do not hear the noise you would expect from all the customers.
Do you want to go in?
First Moxo will peer through the windows, see what is to be seen. Then, if nothing alarming or curious, he will go slowly to the door and gently push it open as he stays to one side....
The window is small, but you can see Hegar at his shop counter. He does looks healthy and bored.
