„Serit, you should know by now, that stealth is not my strong site.“

Gruntor draws a scimitar and a handaxe and will attempt to hide near the path

9 stealth

"Goat and firbolg hide now?"

Giant Goat Stealth: 5

Fire-bolg Stealth: 20

The firbolg slips into the undergrowth, while the goat wanders up to Gruntor, lipping and nuzzling at their pockets for treats.

Going along with the group's plan, Vrakskan tries to hide as well.

Stealth: 5

Roll Dex saving throw for the goat and for Vrakskan

The goat really likes Vrakskan too.

Dex Save: 9

Vrakskan's Dex Save: 3

 Over the hill crest, you see several hobgoblins fighting an ogre. Another ogre lies dead halfway between you and the hobgoblins. Some hobgoblins are armed with pikes and have surrounded the one still alive, while others are armed with crossbows and support from further back. One of the hobgoblins is sitting away from the fight, bandaging himself, while another is is dragging back a seriously injured fighter.

The crossbowmen react to the noise and shoot in a sync the direction of the noise made by the group. Both the goat and Vrakskan are grazed for 1 damage as they peek over the hill crest.

Nasaar, you hear of the hobgoblins shout: "Curion, we have another ogre coming over over the hill!".

Vrakskan hisses as the arrow grazes his skin, making it pass his hard scales. He looks to where the hobgoblins are fighting agaisnt the ogres, and sighs: Such pointless violence. 

He quickly decided that if they stayed like this, the hobgoblins would just keep shooting at them. 

"Please, do not shoot..." He growls. "We have come to help, we are not your enemy!"

But Vrakskan's voice is deep and obviously draconic, and there was a big chance that it would just manage the opposite of what he wanted to accomplish. Still, he tried.

Persuasion: 2 (EDIT: The dice gods are just screwing me over today)

Vrakskan's plea is drowned in the roar of an ogre that was just stabbed yet again by on of the pikes.

"Are you half goblin or what!" Nasaar calls back. "Not ogres up here. Stop shooting at those who would be allies in your fight." He steps out, showing himself to the other hobgoblins. "See, no ogre, just travelers..."

Gruntor

Gruntor will keep his head down and approach the crest, pull his helmet off to show his Bugbear features... and peak over, but yell out in GOBLIN "Friend...No foe...Help Smash"

"Goat! We go!"

The firbolg swings atop the giant goat and they trot forward, the goat bleating.

Vrakskan moves to stand by Nasaar's side. "We are not your enemy" He repeats, hoping that this time he will be listened to.

One of the hobgoblins replies, as he tries to stab the ogre:

"I'm a little busy right now! If you want a conversation, help us quickly finish off this monster, then we can talk".

"When did a squad need help with a couple ogres?" Nasaar asks with a annoyed grunt. He lifts his heavy crossbow and shoots the ogre.

Attack: 13 Damage: 13

Hits. Arrow hits the ogre in the shoulder.

(I'm not going to bother with initiative, since that ogre going to die so quickly.).

"I don't need help. But I can't question you people with that thing squealing all the time."

Attack: 20 Damage: 11

Vrakskan gets in on the action, trying to strike down the ogre with his greataxe to finish this as quickly as possible. "Nothing personal..." He grumbles as he swings his weapon at it.

Attack: 20 Damage: 11

Gara would try to get within throwing range to attack the Ogre, but keeping Efeu between him and the giant.

Attack: 23 Damage: 9

The firbolg's hand ignites and as he gallops up on the goat, flings it at the ogre.

Fire Attack: 23 Damage: 5
