Session 51 - Jan 23, 2020 Report

General Summary

World Date, Fall, Third Moon, Fisro (17th Day)

• During the afternoon in the town of Kotssa the party looks around to investigate and see if they can see anything odd or off that the people who live in the town may have missed. Roth, Baeshra and Scarlett see the odd patch of disturbed earth, possibly child digging or some small burrowing creature.
• As the party settles in the for the night, Roth asks Brad if he can keep watch from the top of the Friendly Fowl, which is a two story building with a thatched roof. Brad allows it, but asks him to keep to the edges in case there are uneven patches in the roof. Ari sets up on top the grain silo, Baeshra and Black Poison on top of Hen House 5, Scarlett was on top of Hen House 3, with Merry casting Tiny Hut and going invisible inside Hen House 4.
• Ari summons a mastiff and they smell around the churned earth, but do not discover anything.
• Roth trances from 10- 2 am and his pets keep watch. No one saw anything interesting. There was a Con Check at 3 am which would allow the party to either stay awake or they would fall asleep. Everyone made the DC 15 check. Around midnight there was a fox that Olly and Branwen saw.
• Merry inside the Hen House sees a kobol move a piece of flooring, and get into the hen house, going towards the eggs with a large basket. Merry casts Thaumaturgy to close the door behind the creature and tackles the kobol, successfully. Then yells for the rest of the party.
• Roth sends Olly over to listen, and orders her to stay in communication range. The rest of the party starts making their way down and over towards Merry or the hen house they are closest to.
• Ari and her mastiff investigate the Hen House 1 and do not see anything.
• Scarlett runs over to Merry and throws the door open, seeing Merry and the kobol being grappled.
• Roth then orders Olly and Branwen to changes places so he can listen while still keeping a look out. Merry then casts suggestion on the kobol she has, name Moloo and suggests he come to the party, with dancing, music, and food. Moloo thinks this is a great idea and goes out to eat food that Merry gives him and dances a little to the pipes she is playing.
• Baeshra then goes back into Hen House 5, and kills the Kobold which was trying to enter that Hen House.
• Roth then flies over to Hen House 2 to investigate what it going on inside it.
• Ari’s mastiff smells something in Hen House 1, and a Kobol pops up out of the floor, unsure of what to do in this situation. She casts detect thoughts on Meepo and realizes the Kobol is scared, anxious, and very confused about the situation. Rolls persuasion to try and get it to stay and talk with her.
• Roth goes into Hen House 2 and sees two Kobols picking up eggs and putting them into baskets. He knocks both unconscious and then puts them into the bag of holding. He then carries them out into the square when he meets Baeshra with 1 dead Kobold.
• Merry is trying to persuade Moloo to bring out his friends to join the party, and so she sends him down the tunnels to get his friends.
• Roth pulls 2 Kobolds out of the bag of holding and disarms them and ties them up, as well as taking the weapon from Baeshra’s dead Kobold.
• Meanwhile Scarlett goes to Hen House 3, sees two Kobolds taking eggs fro the Hen House, and runs over to stand/block their exit tunnel. They then try to run away outside in the opposite direction of the “tunnels” and Baeshra shots an arrow to kill the first one out the door and Scarlett runs after the second one, tackling it. Baeshra goes wolf to make sure Scarlett has the Kobold, and ties it up and brings it to the square.
• Ari has been trying to convince to be her friend and not run away. Mepoo then says he will have to ask “head Kobold” about being friends, and goes back into the tunnel. Ari waits but Mepoo does not return.
• While Ari and Merry wait for the Kobolds to emerge from the various tunnels, Roth sends Olly down to explore the tunnels and she is able to roughly map out a small part before she see Mepoo and is popped into pet-space.
• With the information the Olly provides, Roth and Baeshra can draw out a rough idea of the tunnels Olly saw.
• Moloo returns, and was unable to convince the other Kobolds to join the party, and Merry gives a “gift” for Jeff, the head Kobold, a ruby. Merry is unsure if Moloo with keep or give the gift, but is willing to try.
• Olly follows Moloo back to the main cave/den area of the Kobolds, and as she goes, notices where they are likely traps, and as she speaks Draconic, is able to understand that Jeff is looking for eggs, and why they did not bring back eggs, and how soon the eggs will lead to more Kobolds. Moloo tries to convince Jeff to return and join the party, but sadly fails. Olly sees roughly 12 Kobolds in one large room with tall ceilings. Moloo then returned and partied with Merry til dawn, when he went back to the den.
• The three captive Kobolds were hidden away and around dawn when Rune, the head farmer woke up and spoke to the party, he was not pleased to see that the thieves were Kobolds, and they were pests and he just wants them to stay away from the eggs and town’s other resources.
• Baeshra and Merry go to sleep at dawn and Scarlett and Ari argue with Roth about what will happen to the 3 Kobolds while they are asleep. Ari and Scarlett want all 3 to be kept alive. Baeshra says something in Dragonic on the way to sleep.
• While Scarlett and Ari try to figure out how and where to keep the Kobolds during the must needed rest, Olly take a bit out of the two unconscious Kobolds, killing them. Neither Scarlett nor Ari see or hear anything.
• Scarlett then sleeps in the Hen House 3 with the bound Kobold so that she can rest and the Kobold will be alive and able to be questioned.
• Roth stays awake all day and reads.

World Date, Fall, Third Moon, Fislar (18th Day)

• As the morning is where the party starts a long rest, the party sleeps most of the day, except Roth who learns Draconic and drinks in a crisp fall weather. He considers sending a note to the guild to report what is happening.
• The party awakens around 3 pm and takes about possible ways to tunnel down to the cave/cavern which Olly saw, and Baeshra thinks that a giant badger will be the best creature to turn into.
• Much discussion is had how to handle the Kobolds they find and if they can be reasoned with vs is a punishment necessary and what it should be.
