Started a new DnD campaign. We play on Friday evenings. The characters are:
1319: A warforged druid who used to be on the dark side, but has been converted to a nature loving robot by Ploquad, a tortillian who takes care of the forest.
Toi: A changeling warlock.
Creek: An aracockra monk, a bird that can attack from the sky.
Figwit: A wood elf ranger. Me. I always play a wood elf ranger in all my campaigns.
Pyro: A genasi cleric.
We are ultimately looking for a way into the Underdark. Our adventures have brought us to Kohan, from where we have taken a mission to investigate a goblin problem. We find ourselves at the entrance of Kohan, and start heading towards the mountain. Toi asks us if she should get a ranged weapon or a melee weapon, and we wonder where he gets his weapons from. She tells us that she was trained by the Raven Queen, who 1319 tells us is the god of death. We walk for half of the day and reach the foot of the mountains. While walking through the forest, we hear some noises, so we start sneaking up towards the sounds. There are two bugbears up ahead.
1319 marks them by casting fairy fire. Both the bugbears light up with a shimmering light. I fire an arrow at it. After just one round of surprise attacks, the first bugbear goes down as I shoot an arrow through its head. Creek attacks the remaining bugbear with her Yklwa, and it starts bleeding. Toi tries to strike it, but the bugbear summons up some will to live and manages to dodge all his attacks, but then it starts running away. Toi's does not do any damage with the halberd on the opportunity attack.
Then a bunch of goblins start attacking us. I take one down, Pyro downs another and 1319 turns into a spider and kills another one. Two goblins start running away. I zephyr strike after one of them and kill him. 1319 manages to restrain him. Toi interrogates him in undercommon, and we find out that fire slugs and other creatures attacked their settlements driving them away. They are now one among a few hunting parties. We go back to the clearing, and search the bodies.
Then we continue to interrogate the goblin. He tells us of his king Bango, and that his settlement has around 80 goblins and 40 bugbears. We also find out that they are attacking people for food, and that the settlement is about 4 hours away. The Goblin King's name is Bango Dickbiter. In the middle of the night, four bugbears sneak towards the camp.
