9) The assault on the lair of the kobolds

During the journey to the lair of the kobolds, the group quickly establishing an advanced order to better exploit the capabilities of individuals (called training "S1")
Gardland head in order to better defend the group and absorb the attacks pending the move of the allies; Kaliber on the right, to defend the side of the group; Aperez on the left side and also to defend absorb enemy attacks; Leonard at the center, to be able to break away immediately and take more advantageous positions; Dan Poe and Hoverbeth appear on the back of the training, to provide support for the long haul. To avoid losing
prefer to follow the instructions to the letter to arrive near the camp, despite a detour groped them could well lead to their first goal.

The "S1" will be a big (albeit with some damage, then corrected in the "S1 bis") because the group falls into an ambush along the road, but thanks to the positions can limit the damage of the first attack of enemy forces!


Some goblins (as recognized by the speech) assault the group, nearly head-on, safe and galvanized by their number, going to engage Gardland, Kaliber, Aperez and Leonard. Dan Hoverbeth
and widen out, and begin to provide assistance at a distance, keep at bay admirably Gardland two enemies, allowing them later to Leonard to pull alongside and assist, and Caliber Aperez manage the situation well to the sides , until Gardland, using his skills as a warrior, manages to push his opponents in their positions less favorable, allowing the rest of the group to assist him better.
From the beginning, a voice from nearby begins to incite the goblins to slay the enemies, it is therefore clear that this is not a handful of disorganized: the camp should close. Dan
first to try to better position themselves to attack the leader of the kobolds, but takes a few rounds to find a position, while the rest of the group manages the remaining kobolds.
Once a position on the roof, but unable to attack effectively if the shaman's head, forcing him to discover and fall victim to the blows of the group. Our
come together after the fight, and decide to adopt the deployment "a S1" almost identical to the first, but with more space between the various components, so as not to fall victim to attacks on area too easily, and to prevent the central location is now engaged in close combat.
Leaving the road and walk through the forest, the group arrives at a thick row of trees, beyond which you hear the sound of flowing water: probably just the stream reported by village guards.
Leonard goes on ahead silently to the edge of the trees to observe the situation, while Dan does the same, but sought to distance himself enough from groped an encirclement maneuver.

The situation that presents itself is not very simple, the group has at least a dozen kobolds that does not seem to be a big problem, scattered throughout the river (which appears to be little more then a torrent) on both sides, but also some opponents can see a bit 'more worthy of note: one just outside the forest ( close to where Leonard was exploring, which fortunately is not noticed) and one near a small waterfall.

The group decides to attack opponents in the middle, but preparing the plan in a very tactical
Gardland him out of the woods just to one of the most competitive opponents, on his left Aperez , slightly apart, on another opponent Kaliber to the right, while keeping away from enemies, ready to the question whether a situation is not provided; Hoverbeth remains little back, he also prepared to provide support; Dan instead advances from the opposite side of the waterfall, separated from the group , sure you can handle at least 3 of weaker enemies, Leonard joins Gardland to better exploit the synergies with the two flanking positions, and the fighting begins precisely with a surprise attack of the thief.

The kobolds are taken by surprise, but also quick to back together: most of them started to attack from a distance, while the closer together forces to engage in combat.
The central part of the group maintains its position, mowing down anyone who comes within range of a weapon, Dan remains on the outside trying to anticipate the moves of opponents, failing to neutralize two enemies, while the latter can reach Kaliber, which starts turn to fight. Hoverbeth leaves from the forest secure the assistance of friends, and start taking casualties; Aperez after having managed a couple of minor threats rushes on the enemy by higher capacity, as taken immediately targeted by the latter. Again
Leonard is hunted in his position, but again Gardland assist him to struggle, and just this last manages almost single-handed one of the two major threats, and a pair of kobolds weaker.
Gardland After giving assistance, and having been freed by it, shooting in the direction of Leonard Aperez to provide assistance on the last kobold left among the more experienced, but as soon as you check it neutralized one third of the forest, and Aperez was immediately hired.
A spell of magicians can damage it, but taking advantage of the cloud cover created the enemy disappears from view.
Meanwhile the group continues to decimate the weaker opponents, when suddenly reappear from the kobold forest, which is, however, immediately killed by the attacks and Aperez Leonard.

When the outcome seems obvious now, a gnome began to flee in the direction of the waterfall and the group realizes that behind it there must be a cave. Concerned that the alarm is given, the Group is however far removed to be able to recruit, Gardland decide in a move almost desperate to launch his hammer towards the kobold, who however had already crossed the waterfall. A dull sound (albeit covered by water) seems to be saying that the attack Gardland was successful, but the group is now reorganizing to go and see what is behind the waterfall. Dan Gardland
and cross the waterfall to find a scene in front of at least bizarre: the gnome on the ground actually crushed by the hammer flying, but surrounded by several other enemies who look at him in disbelief, not understanding what the heck happened.
kobolds Now notice the two intruders and shout the alarm, and just as fast and Dan Gardland out from the waterfall, and organized on the fly with the others to wait until the enemies come out to remove them.


After several minutes, the group realizes that his opponents have adopted the same tactic, and they decide to break knowing that the enemy will be entrenched.
training this time is compact (even because of limited space) with Kaliber, Aperez Gardland and joined the front lines, and Hoverbeth, Leonard and Dan in the second line.
The enemies seem well placed, but definitely very close to each other, and many immediately they fall victim of attacks by area of \u200b\u200bthe two magicians.
Among the remaining opponents are now engaged apparently stronger while the weak are quickly managed through actions more than random tactics.
remain just two opponents a bit 'tougher when there's a tunnel a few rays of magic on the group: Hoverbeth just screams "I'll take that!" And began a pursuit along the cave as long as significant with strokes of magic rays.


Immediately after a scream coming from another gallery "Kill them! Kill them all for Irontooth! "And immediately is their leader, called a Goblin Irontooth (" iron teeth ", in an ancestral language called English, said the old Elian), ready to kill the invaders.
The situation deteriorates rapidly Aperez is spread by a pair of attacks settle properly, Leonard remains committed longer than expected with the remaining opponents while Gardland ends to assist, Kaliber Aperez and runs toward the cure, but it seems want to be clever, and not alludes to his feet.



Dan in the meantime try a maneuver on Irontooth encirclement, hoping for the timely intervention of his companions.
Now Gardland intervenes and engages Irontooth furiously, who resists his strokes and suffers just as lethal Irontooth looks like a worthy opponent. Ending
subjected to kill the last remaining suspect Leonard his cowardice, and shouts "Aperez! Do not be a coward and fight! "But this seems not to mention to his feet, and Leonard is getting ready to head Irontooth.

Meanwhile long the gallery multicolored flashes come from everywhere: Hoverbeth is still in pursuit of the enemy shaman, who is slowed by dell'Eladrin spells, which keeps him at arm's length but well marked, making it impossible maneuvers such charges or quick getaways.

Dan is now the limit, and decides to hurl a spell on Irontooth area, well aware that it will also affect the body Aperez, but an overwhelming logic dwells in his mind: "who cares if he died of his body , if it is alive ... well, it's a coward, and deserves to die "and the group nodded readily.
After her attack, however, is drawn from Irontooth, who is furious and immediately returned to ground strokes Gardland, who resists, inflicts damage, but is now at the end of their tether. Finally
Leonard gets rid of opponents remaining, and ran to the aid of Gardland, which unfortunately falls a few seconds later, after having resisted and inflicted heavy damage as much, but also comes at Kaliber fray, and the fighting continues, but with odds against the group.

In the meantime, the gallery continues to be multicolored flashes of light: the duel between him and Hoverbeth kobold shaman continues.

Fortunately Irontooth had been sufficiently weakened, and after just a couple of shots Leonard manages to overpower him. The joy
little harsh though: Leonard screams "Kaliber! Assist the fallen, I run to the aid of Hoverbeth "and launches a run up the tunnel ... but to no avail, because Hoverbeth, after an epic chase had the better of his opponent.

The group meets, Dan helps to recover his senses, and happily sacks the basis of kobolds
They find a good amount of gold coins, but most dwarven armor (Gardland appreciate that very much) and a letter , which seems to connect once again to the worship of Shar everything else, as assumed immediately by Kaliber:

"Soon the people of Winterhaven to be your booty. Irontooth Be patient .. I still need your warriors, but the time to realize the pleasure of Shar and 'almost there'

The letter suggests that the ritual to awaken Shussurru will be shut down at any moment, and decided not to waste any time even after clearing Aperez (except armor and dozens of) their way towards Winterhaven, where are welcomed as heroes, receiving respect from even the "regulars" and the Warriors organization. Some people dislike Aperez well.

Now the group is directed by Lord Padraig, who also welcomes them in disbelief for their return.
Before talking with them, however, ends his conversation with Joannes Van Sarimun. Diplomatic Cormyr, and the group is able to feel that probably the two signed an agreement: The Cormyr allocate their troops WinterHaven. Before the diplomatic go away, Leonard joined him to shake his hand and exchange a few words with him, the two talk about the game the night before, and Van Sarimun hints at a tournament in his hometown DragonPoker magazine.
front of the letter can not deny the evidence, and to put Lord Padraig and narrow 'forced to pay extra to have lost the bet: even the kobolds are related to the matter of Shar.

Felice's death threat, but disturbed by the letter, it asks the group to speak to the more 'soon with Valthurn, who put it up to date on a very serious risk attached to this ritual . Given his inability 'to deal personally with the regulars, will be' happy to provide another reward if you solve the problem (it has just struck a bargain with the Cormyr).
It asks to be left alone, because of another important event "diplomat" ("with a mignottona eladrin certainly worthy note "notes Leonard, who had already 'seen again at this time) ..
