Orcs are proficient with all simple weapons, preferring those that cause the most damage in the least time.

They enjoy attacking from concealment and setting ambushes, and they obey the rules of war (such as honoring a truce) only as long as it is convenient for them.

Light Sensitivity (Ex): Orcs are dazzled in bright sunlight or within the radius of a daylight spell.

Adult ogres stand 9 to 10 feet tall and weigh 600 to 650 pounds. Their skin color ranges from dull yellow to dull brown. Their clothing consists of poorly cured furs and hides, which add to their naturally repellent odor.
Ogres speak Giant, and those specimens who boast Intelligence scores of at least 10 also speak Common.

Special abilities
Smite Good (Su): Once per day the creature can make a normal melee attack to deal extra damage equal to its HD (maximum of +20) against a good foe.
Spell-Like Abilities: A half-fiend with an Intelligence or Wisdom score of 8 or higher has spell-like abilities depending on its Hit Dice (Darkness 3/day, Descecrate 1/day)

Combat
Ogres favor overwhelming odds, sneak attacks, and ambushes over a fair fight. They are intelligent enough to fire ranged weapons first to soften up their foes before closing, but ogre gangs and bands fight as unorganized individuals.

Morro was just 40 years old when his home was attacked. He wanted to join the fighting but his father asked him to look after his younger brother. The dwarven city crumbled under the attack. To ensure there safety the children and other non-combatants retreated to a surface entrance to the stronghold. Still the dwarves were unable to stop the intruders. As a final act to defend the young, a purposeful cave-in halted the enemy. Cut off from their home, the remaining cavern section provided shelter. The survivors were forced to venture to the surface world for food. During a hunt Morro and his brother were captured by slavers. They were forced to work for them and fight in the arena. His brother escaped but Morro continue to await the opportunity to breaks the bonds of his captors.

Working on it
Stormwind

03-20-08, 04:07 PM		Eland and Morro have both been kept in the same cell for some time now, fed once a day and kept under strict and constant guard. They are treated with great caution, but over the last few weeks, the guards have begun to relax once again.

I thought you guys might like to start by roleplaying the acquisition of your new equipment. Feel free to roleplay it as you wish, perhaps a guard you can bribe, or a thief in the night willing to make a few extra coin ...
CrazyArtificer

03-21-08, 07:04 AM		Eland had been silent for several days in a row.
While some people reacts with physical and verbal fury to these situation, Eland spent several days grumbling over his mistakes in silence.

When Morro tried to start a conversation with Eland, the younger dwarf simply turned his shoulders to the new friend.

All of a sudden Eland step up and walked to the door of the cage when a guard was just passing by.

Hey you. Come here, I got a deal for you
dulsi

03-21-08, 01:44 PM		When Eland refused to talk, Morro turned to telling tales of his dwarven home. Meanwhile he watched the new guards and their routine.

Surprised by Eland sunden attempt to talk to the guard, he sits quietly. He curses his inability to understand the language of this land. We should have discussed a plan for escape thinks the older dwarf. The dragon of the Greatedge stood alone while Tognir Stronghammer fought with the help of others. For that Tognir's name still lives and the dragon's is forgotten.

Morro waits for Eland to play his hand prepared to jump at any openning.
Stormwind

03-21-08, 02:16 PM		As Eland speaks, the guard turns and stepping up to the bars, he looks down and speaks, "What you want slave?"

The guard seems to be in a relatively good mood, as he is not using expletives or calling them by derogatory names.
CrazyArtificer

03-21-08, 03:18 PM		I need two things: the first is to escape this cage, the second is decent weapons. I can compensate your efforts for both things, if you want.

Help me, and you've got two new friends at the price of one
Stormwind

03-21-08, 03:43 PM		"I'll not help you escape slave. That would be more than my job's worth, maybe more than my life's worth too."

"I might be able to get you some equipment ... if you've got the gold to pay me with. ... Have you got gold, slave?"
CrazyArtificer

03-22-08, 06:03 AM		Well. I do. I have gold with my equipment. Buy me what I tell you and I can give you 5 gold coins. Do you agree?


Then Eland turns to Morro and speaks in Dwarven for a moment

Wanna buy something?
dulsi

03-22-08, 07:36 AM		"What have you offered him in exchange for the purchase? Our equipment has been taken... unless you know someone on the outside that would be willing to bride the guard. The key to the lock would be my top purchase or perhaps tools to break it. I had hoped to procure some tools once they started using me to craft more weapons and armor."
CrazyArtificer

03-22-08, 08:45 AM		A few gold coins.

I wanted to buy new weapons and use those to break the locks.
After all the slaver may need our services soon.


To the Guard, in common

My friend here would also buy something. The key of the lock where our equipment is stored.
Stormwind

03-22-08, 01:39 PM		The guard laughs aloud, a sneer on his face, and he is about to say something, when all of a sudden a blank look crosses over his face and in a monotone voice he replies, "Give me your list of necessary acquisitions and I will acquire what you need."

Both of you can tell that something strange is going on here ... you're just not sure what ...

Ok, I just need a list of any equipment that you have already bought for this quest, and any additional equipment that you wish to buy ... then we'll proceed with the first combat ;)
CrazyArtificer

03-22-08, 01:48 PM		Here's Eland list of equipment
1 Silver Dwarven Waraxe. [8 lbs][120 gp]
1 Cold Iron Dwarven Waraxe [8 lbs][60 gp]
20 Cold Iron arrows. [0.15 lb each = 3 lbs] [0.1 gp each = 2 gp]
1 Protection from Evil potion. [CL 1] [0.1 lb each = 0.3 lbs][50 gp each]
1 Cure light wounds potion. [CL 1] [0.1 lb each = 0.3 lbs][50 gp each]
dulsi

03-22-08, 03:29 PM		I bought 2 cure light wounds potions, 2 tanglefoot bags and 20 arrows I think. It occured to me when I looked at Eland's sheet a protection from evil potion would be nice as well.
Stormwind

03-22-08, 04:28 PM		You can obtain anything you can afford at the moment ... you mentioned you wanted a key to the room with you equipment as well?
dulsi

03-22-08, 10:54 PM		You can obtain anything you can afford at the moment ... you mentioned you wanted a key to the room with you equipment as well?

Actually I was asking for the key to the cell. Eland misunderstood. I kinda figure once we are out finding someway to break into the room with our equipment should be too hard. But a key would simplify that.
CrazyArtificer

03-23-08, 04:44 AM		Actually I was asking for the key to the cell. Eland misunderstood. I kinda figure once we are out finding someway to break into the room with our equipment should be too hard. But a key would simplify that.

I thought about asking both, but then I thought the guard already somewhat answered by telling us he won't help us escaping
Stormwind

03-23-08, 11:56 AM		I thought about asking both, but then I thought the guard already somewhat answered by telling us he won't help us escaping
He wouldn't have gotten the keys for you before ... but something has changed ... you could say that he's a changed man.
CrazyArtificer

03-23-08, 12:06 PM		OK, then consider it asked :)
Stormwind

03-25-08, 02:09 PM		After discussing what addional equipment they would like Eland and Morro give the guard the list, which includes the key to their cell and to the storage room containing their equipment, and then send the guard shopping. The guard returns sometime later overladen with not only the items on their shopping list, but also all of their equipment and a couple of keys. After giving them all of the gear, the guard turns and walks out ... completely oblivious to them ... or anything else.

As the guard leaves, a flash of light can be seen over Morro's bed and a scroll appears and drops onto the bedcovers.

When Eland opens the scroll, it reads as follows:I am somewhat disappointed by the lack of results on the last task I set you. I have gone to some trouble and no little expense to ensure that you will have an additional opportunity to resolve this situation for me.

If you succeed in killing the overseer then, perhaps, we can once again discuss business and rennumeration.

Slaver

As Eland finishes reading the parchment, in flares into flame and the ashes drift to the floor.

No more than a few seconds after this, the two dwarves hear footsteps further down the corridor and after taking a quick look, Morro manages to ascertain that the overseer is approaching.

dulsi

03-25-08, 09:08 PM		So CA what do we want to do? Drink Protection for Evil potions? Morro starts shooting. Eland hits him with tanglefoot when close. Surround and attack in melee. I not sold on the tanglefoot bag idea. It decreases it's ability to to hit but is that better than hitting for one round? Any other ideas?

I knew putting that prison map on my enhanced mapper could be problematic. Don't like the confined location but what can you do.
CrazyArtificer

03-26-08, 06:49 AM		Well, this time we got proper weapons to use.. let's use them :)
I wouldn't use the tanglefoot bag, as the chains would be unaffected. It's better to melee him and attack with our 2 axes, I think.

Protection from Evil potion surely helps, and we could drink that to gain a +2 which hopefully will prevent us from being critted to death.
dulsi

03-26-08, 11:11 AM		I wouldn't use the tanglefoot bag, as the chains would be unaffected.

True but he would still be entagled (-2 to hit and -4 to dex). But if you want to go without it I'm fine with that.
CrazyArtificer

03-27-08, 04:39 AM		True but he would still be entagled (-2 to hit and -4 to dex). But if you want to go without it I'm fine with that.

Yes, I'd keep it as one more option for future encounters.
dulsi

03-27-08, 10:04 AM		Give Eland 5 silver arrows just incase. Drink Protection for Evil potions. Morro starts shooting. Surround and attack in melee.

@CA: I'll leave it up to you if you want Eland to use the arrows or just get your shield and axe ready.
CrazyArtificer

03-29-08, 06:10 AM		Eland takes the arrows and stows them. Then drink his potion of Protection from Evil, readies shield and axe and attacks the Devil.

Sorry for the delay guys

Round 5
The last remaining Guard, seeing the carnage in the room, and not wanting to become another dead body, leaves the room with alacrity.
Eland and Morro are unable to catch up or even just get a clear shot at the escaping guard.
Stormwind

04-04-08, 08:05 AM		Eland and Morro quickly gather their gear as they prepare to head outside for a taste of freedom, but ... just then ... they hear the sound of someone clearing their throat ... behind them.

They turn around and standing there, with a smile on his face is the Slaver with his everpresent bodyguards.
"Well done on finally completing the task I set you", he looks down upon the body of the Kyton and his smile becomes even broader, as he digs into his pockets and pulls out two small but heavy looking pouches, "Here is the money that I promised you, ... but you did cause me additional expense and bother due to your initial failure, so I'm afraid, this is the closet you'll get to it."

The smile on his face is still there, but it's a twisted parody of a smile and for the first time, and only for a moment, you both see something dark and twisted in his eyes ... a mixture of anguish and hate, but then it's gone.
The Slaver tosses the two bags of gold to his bodyguards and says, "Take care of them for me.", before he silently disappears. Gone without a trace.

As Eland and Morro look at the two large bodyguards, they notice batlike wings unfurling from behind the two creatures.


Neither of you have the appropriate knowledge skills to know what these creatures are ...

You guys have several rounds while you are gathering up your arrows and stuff in which you can drink a few potions to get back to full health - I assume that Eland will drink enough to be at full health?
CrazyArtificer

04-04-08, 10:16 AM		Yes, heal back up please.
I actually wanted to shoot staying hidden, but didn't realize it wasn't possible to stick with the T-shaped wall. Not a big deal.

I'm not posting much, I'm sorry, but I'm having a couple of tremendously busy weeks
Stormwind

04-07-08, 04:08 AM		@CA, dulsi: Waiting for you guys to post your initial tactics vs the two bodyguards ... No surprise round here ...

@CA: Eland takes 4 potions (2 of his own + 2 of Morro's) to get to 31/32hp - Did you want to drink 1 more to get to 32/32hp?
CrazyArtificer

04-07-08, 10:40 AM		No thanks. 31/32 is enough :)

Eland will throw a tanglefoot bag to one creature, then if the guy gets stuck to the floor he'll focus on the other one with Morro.

If that doesn't work Eland will melee with Axe and Shield, TWF and trying to flank them. Should the Axe fail to damage them change it to another material. In that case skip TWF, as shield spikes would have no effect.
dulsi

04-07-08, 11:25 AM		So about not responding earlier. I was hoping to post sometime the weekend but never got a chance. Morro going to go with regular axe and shield. If they withdraw and use some ranged weapons switch to bow. Switch to silver axe if regular doesn't seem work. Try to flank with Eland.
Stormwind

04-08-08, 08:06 AM		Round 1
Eland pulls out a tanglefoot bag and throws it at one of the bodyguards. It hits and glues the bodyguard to the floor. [attack: 16(hit); reflex save 13 vs DC15 (fail)]
Morro charges the other Bodyguard but his axe misses it's target. [attack: 18(miss)]
Bodyguard I tries to break free but is unable to. [Strength check: 15 vs DC17 (fail)]
Bodyguard II draws a potion and drinks it, providing Morro with an opportunity [AoO: 27(hit); damage: 5 before DR] which he takes advantage of, but the axe only glances off the creatures hide.


Eland: 31/32 HP, AC 19
Morro: 47/47 HP, AC 22
Bodyguard I: ?? HP, AC ??
Entangled (-2 attack; -4 dexterity, stuck; 4 rounds)
Bodyguard II: ?? HP, AC ??

Eland nocks his bow with one of the silver arrows that Morro gave him and shoots [attack: 26(hit); damage: 9 before DR] and the arrow penetrates the creatures skin. He then drops his bow and takes a step closer.
Morro drops his axe, draws his cold iron one and steps around the other Bodyguard and attacks again but again his axe misses it's target. [attack: 10(miss)]
Bodyguard I tries to break free but is unable to. [Strength check: 13 vs DC17 (fail)]
Bodyguard II draws another potion and drinks it, providing Morro with an opportunity [AoO: 24(hit); damage: 7 before DR] and this time he manages to break the creatures thick skin.

Round 3
Eland draws his axe, steps forward and attacks [attack: 19(miss)]
Morro realizes that none of their weapons are bypassing the creatures thick skin so he draws a vial of oil from his belt and applies it to his weapon before he steps around the other Bodyguard (flanking position)
Bodyguard I tries to break free and finally does so, but is still hampered by the tanglefoot goo. [Strength check: 21vs DC17 (succeeds)]
Bodyguard II draws a large greatclub and attacks Morro [Attack: 30(hit); damage: 16] and both Eland and Morro are shocked by the sheer force of the blow

@dulsi: I hope the improvisation with the oil of magic weapon is okay ... it seemed to fit the theme of your tactics thus far.

Either way, I'll finish this tonight or tomorrow, depending on when I hear from you guys.

Enlarge and then try to flank to gain sneak attacks. Keep the shield but avoid TWF.

... whew you guys were soooooo lucky there. The bodyguards next hit would have been a crit on Morro - nasty ;)

Well ... congrats to you both on surviving :D
Stormwind

04-09-08, 07:09 AM		With the bodyguards downed, the two dwarves retrieve the money from the corpses and leave the cellblock.

On the way out Morro indicates the Overseers office, and the two wander in and begin a careful search for any documents that provide any record of themselves as slaves. Luckily, they manage to locate the relevant documents, which they take with them in order to destroy at a later date, and without further ado, they are off. A little skulking and hiding and they manage to make their way out of the arena area without being seen.

Breathing a little easier once they make it into the city proper, the two dwarves head for a discreet inn where they finally can relax and count their hard earned coins.

----------------------

Meanwhile a certain entity known as the Slaver is just discovering that his trusted bodyguards are both lying dead in the cells beneath the arena ...
CrazyArtificer

04-09-08, 07:48 AM		We can finally relax Morro.. Nothing tasty like freedom, isn't it?

While Eland speaks he calls a waitress and order 2 dwarven beers.

I fear that The Slaver may not be happy in regard to our escape. We surely risk to have further confrontation with him, don't you think?


Finally, we made it :)
Thanks to Stormwind for questlording and rolling good dice in the final encounter :P

Thanks to dulsi for questing along with Eland, and I hope we will quest together again as soon as I'm a bit less busy.

04-09-08, 09:57 AM		"The Slaver seems to have sufficient power that he wouldn't need us. I fear there may be a larger design that we have not seen." Morro pauses to take a swig of his drink. "According to the papers we found my brother managed to escape. I doubt he would return home without me. If I'm to stay in the city looking for him I will need to learn the tongue of this land."
CrazyArtificer

04-10-08, 04:34 AM		Well, if you need help both learning the language and finding your brother you know where to find me.

I fear The Slaver. I see him as a vindicative person who could just send someone after us for the sake of it.
