"Arialis be careful!" Faeli shouted before she started to look around the area for signs of more goblin gorilla fighters.

Round 7
Talitha brings up her shield to catch the flames.
OOC: The way it works:
1) When using energy damage against an object (that isn't vulnerable to that energy type first the damage is halved: 6 -> 3
2) Subtract hardness (3-5 = 0)
3) Any remaining damage is split between your shield and you.

FYI Shields are REALLY strong for front line fighters.
Fire vs. Wood is no good.
Acid vs. Metal is no good etc.

The shield blocks the gout of flame and while it licks over the tops and bottoms the momentary blast does little damage to her shield or herself. She moves up to defend the fallen elf and kills off one of the goblins almost as an afterthought.

Tristen runs up and uses his divine energy to heal up Arialis before raising his shield in defense.
OOC: Talitha killed that goblin and nothing else is in range so bringing the shield up.


Razyll hammers down on the blind goblin but the tough wiry creature just won't stay down, spitting up curses in between coughing up gobs of blood.

Faeli flings a bottle but it misses. She then withdraws back farther from combat.

Kaddock eyes up one of the goblin torch bearers and fires two arrows at it, clipping the monster with one of them.

Arialis gets back to her feet and double strikes the goblin riding the dog nearly killing the goblin rider outright...but not quite.

The goblin torch bearers surround the party and bathe the heroes with more gouts of flames from their torches.
OOC: Make 2 reflex saves vs. DC 16.
Burning Hands #1 is 7 (3 on a successful save)
Burning Hands #2 is 7 (3 on a successful save)


One of the goblins works his way around Arialis to attack Tristen,
Goblin Warrior (I15) - A1: Step A2: Strike - Miss A3: Strike - Hit - 1 damage



The goblin rider swings its large horsechopper at Talitha

Goblin Rider - A1: Strike - Hit - 7 slashing damage


The goblin rider then clicks his heels into the dog and it jumps forward before it suddenly rears back, scratching its hind quarters rapidly showering Tristen and Talitha with a cloud of dry dead skin flakes.

OOC: Tristen & Talitha must make a DC 17 Fortitude save or be Sickened 1 (-1 to all checks, can't swallow potions.) Can be cured by spending an action to retch triggering another Fort save opportunity.

Combat Tracker

Talitha covers herself from the attack of the goblin rider. She manages to protect herself from most of the damage, but some of it ends up landing in the shield and the arm that is holding it.
Unfortunately, that means that the two torches that come out of the hands of the other goblins hit her on in her torso and another in her back. She screams in pain.
"As I said, someone please take care of the %8£$#@ pyromaniacs!"
She turns towards the goblin rider and she hits him hard with her bastard sword.


19:24, Today: Talitha rolled 15 using 1d20+6 with rolls of 9.  Fortitude check. -1 to all checks (not against all rolls, right?)
19:21, Today: Talitha rolled 9 using 1d20+7 with rolls of 2.  Reflex Save 2.
19:21, Today: Talitha rolled 15 using 1d20+7 with rolls of 8.  Reflex Save 1.

If the math are correct, that's 7 #burninghands1 + 7 #burninghands2 + (7-5)/2= 1 #horsechopper = 15 damage  and 1 damage to the shield

A1 & A2: Power attack to H13
19:35, Today: Talitha rolled 16,14 using 1d20+9,2d8+4 with rolls of 7,3,7.  Power attack, damage.

A3: Raise shield (and pray for no more burning hands)

Razyll growled in frustration as the blind goblin danced between his strikes with ease. With a
snarl he thrust forward his holy symbol and projected the healing grace of Sarenrae upon Talitha.



A1.  Attack One looks like a total miss17:57, Today: Razyll rolled 9 using 1d20+6 with rolls of 3.  Scimitar Attack to K13 Goblin..

"On it!" Arialis said, as she turned around and slashed out with both her blades at the pyro-goblin behind her. At the same time, she uttered a single word... "SHIELD!" ...causing a glowing shield of force to be raised in front of her. It was the first time anyone saw her use...magic. Wait...she can use MAGIC TOO?

[OOC: Action 1 and 2: Double Slice Goblin Flamer at G16.
Action 3: Cast Shield Cantrip, which counts as raise a shield action.

Arialis' AC is now 19 until start of my next turn.

Faeli gestures and flings another serving dish toward the blind goblin.

Round 8
Talitha brings her shield up to protect herself from the flames but still ends up taking a fair amount of damage.
OOC: Shield blocks all of a burning hands no damage to it so 14 damage in total, 0 to shield

Talitha tries to cleave the goblin rider off the back of his dog but the dog jukes to the side and the sudden itching is enough of a distraction to throw off her aim. Preparing for a counterattack she raises her shield again.

Razyll misses the blind goblin but drops healing energy onto Talitha.

Arialis slashes at the goblin torch bearer but the wiry bastard just won't stay down. Even as it is choking on its own blood it spits out curses and at her and scrambles back to its feet.

Arialis is engulfed in flame but thankfully Tristen's divine protection shields her a little bit.
OOC: Stepping in on this. Arialis would normally have gone to 0 from the burning hands despite making both reflex saves but Tristen who is adjacent to her can use his Retributive Strike to prevent 3 damage and save her.


Faeli sends a projectile that finally knocks the blind pyro out of its misery.

Kaddock continues to fire into the melee but fails to peg a single goblin.

Tristen shakes off the effects of the dead skin and his shield likewise takes the brunt of a flaming spell, although his wooden shield isn't nearly as resistant to flames as one made of steel.

Tristen is badly burnt but is able to move past Arialis, kill the wounded torch bearer, and then move back to pin down the last pyro so they are not burnt alive from behind.


Next to Kaddock the nobleman, Foxglove, pulls a dagger off of one of the fallen goblins and throws it, hitting the goblin warrior behind Arialis and killing it.

The goblin torch bearer actually runs away from Tristen after watching him dispatch its companion and instead it nearly bumps into Kaddock and Aldric Foxglove. With another big breath it engulfs the pair in flames from its torch, spitting out yet another fireball.

OOC: Make a DC 16 reflex save. 8 fire damage (save for half)

The goblin commando is giggling for joy. Even though its warband has been decimated it thinks victory is at hand. It chops at Talitha with its horsechopper which Talitha takes on the shield.

The goblin then uses its hooked chopper to try and sweep Talitha off her feet but she jumps over the sweep. Finally it kicks its heels in and the goblin dog snaps at Talitha but she blocks it with her shield.

Goblin Rider - A1: Strike - Hit - 7 damage -> 2 damage to shield/Talitha A2: Trip - Fail A3: Command Animal -> Strike -> Miss

With only the goblin rider next to her, Talitha does not think about defense anymore. She takes her bastard sword and hits the goblin twice. She's going to need a beer once this is over.

Faeli moves to K14 and casts another Color Spray spell by draining the arcane energies from her ring of power for the day.

"Everyone, we've nearly got them!" She called out as she moved to G14 and slashed at the Goblin, if the Goblin is dead thank to Talitha, she'll attack the Goblin Dog instead.

Round 9
Talitha cleaves the goblin rider off the back of the goblin dog.

Razyll moves to intercept the last goblin standing.

Faeli blinds the goblin dog.

Arialis and Tristen make quick work of the now disabled goblin dog.

With the torch bearer too busy avoiding Razyll Kaddock sees an opening, drops his bow, pulls out his greatsword and walks over and lops the head of the goblin torch bearer clean off its head.
OOC: Crit for Kaddock! 16 damage for the kill.

Combat is over!

Sheriff Hemlock is lying on the ground looking very injured. He is still breathing but the goblins really did a number on him.

Over by the cathedral the door cracks open a bit and Father Zantus pokes his head out.

"Is it...is it over?"

There are fires burning here and there and there is the occasional scream or sound of fighting but the party sees no more goblins in the immediate area and judging by what they can hear iit seems like the raid is over. Guards are rushing about cleaning out the last remaining goblins or helping extinguish fires but it seems the party has broken the back of the main raiding force.

Aldren Foxglove is ecstatic with joy at being saved. He rushes to every adventurer, grabbing their hand with both of his and shaking enthusiastically.

"Thank you! Thank you so much! You saved my life! Did you see that dagger I threw? Isn't that amazing? I've never fought goblins before!"

When he gets to Arialis he pauses, his hands lingering a little longer on hers than the others.

"I saw how you sacrificed yourself to save me...to save everyone. I have never seen something so brave before. You were like an elven angel in battle cutting down the enemy like wheat in a field. If only a bard had witnessed your deeds, I'm sure they could craft a sonnet to capture your prowess, and beauty of course."

He suddenly seemed aware that he was lingering and nervously smiled before moving on.

"Ah yes! And you were great too! Oh that was a great shot! Your spells were amazing!"

In the end he nearly made two complete circuits around the group.

Talitha looks at the sheriff. She shouts at Razyll "Do you still have any healing magic? This man needs some help."
She kneels next tom him to check if she can help him in any way. But she's just a fighter, she can't.

Razyll's training came into play here. He remembered the boring lessons of the priests of the Dawnflower and how they lectured him while he battled to control his blood-rage. Razyll yelled.

"We need triage, the sheriff is not the only one hurt here. Help me find those who need my skills most! Father Zantus can you heal?" moving within range of the fallen man Razyll will ensure that he is stable shunting just enough positive energy into his form to shuts death's door (Stabilize Cantrip).


Razyll would like to attempt to help as many people as he can, using the tables from the festival as medical triage stations while helping Father Z.

Talitha looks up and realises the town main square has become a bloody battlefield.
"Fuck! Ok, tell me what to do, I'll follow."
Talitha tells Razyll, as he obviously know better what to do in this situation. She has some field experience in first aid healing, but clearly the better prepared here are the clerics.

She'll follow his instructions to better help everyone that has been wounded in the attack.


Can I use my +5 in Medicine to help Razyll in healing the wounded? Should I roll anything?

Faeli rushed around the area looking at the bodies of the fallen. She removed the weapons from the goblins as she went, not trusting them to come back-in typical monster fashion for one, last scare.

"Okay, okay-okay. I can help." Faeli said as she rushed to the girl-in-pink she saw who had been running away from the goblins before she was cut down.

"By the gods...this is bad." as she moved through the bloody massacre.

Kaddock is not a healer and with the combat at least quiet for now he decides to let the professionals deal with the injured.  Instead as a warrior he turns to the noble. "Lord Aldren, with the sheriff at death's door who is in charge here?  We should organize what guards are left standing and warriors and warrior mages to sweep the town to secure it and ensure that no more goblins are left running about."

"I lack the divine gifts to offer healing right now. But if the immediate area is secure, then I can try to refocus in prayer." Tristen looked around. When he was satisfied that there were no signs of a threat. "I'm going to step over and sit on the stage while I commune with Abadar, I will return in a few minutes."

She looked towards Aldren Foxglove and smiled softly, she was still obviously wounded but not the type to show it. She would look at his hands lingering on hers, raising a delicate violet brow. "No thanks is needed sir. I only did what I would hope others would do if I found myself in your shoes." She said softly.

When he realized he was lingering, Arialis just offered him a smile. Then offered a nod when he moved on. Finally, when he done so she would collapse to her knees, using her longsword to balance herself and stay upright.

After helping for a while with the most critically injured, Talitha suddenly starts feeling a little bit dizzy, and the wounds that haven't hurt until now due to the adrenaline of the fight are being very painful now.
She sits down and waves slightly to the rest.
"I think I'll rest a bit."
She could use some healing now. And a beer.
