    Shesarai is back in town and should be able to make it Sunday. 1500 GMT is 1100 EDT for me. Because of summer choir schedule, I actually can make that if it starts that early. I should be good for the rest of the day too.

  • ((Still missing key players - Karni's on holidays, but what about Theaon?))


  • ((Anytime Sunday works for me. Arty will be there, balls in hand.))


  • Legan will offer his axe for the destruction of the gobber threat.

    ((I work until 11PM GMT+1, been in many of the events, but if my time doesnt work for others, I'll be fine with sitting this one out 😃 ))


  • ((I'm fine anytime sunday probably. Will bring Nuwairah most likely unless the lack of magicality in the party is alarming))


  • ((The event's being planned for Sunday - what would be a good time for those who were in the initial planning event? Other players are welcome too of course, but let's set the time first.

    I'm good from say 3pm GMT Sunday onwards to 6am ))

    The goblin borderlands are a sea of enemies. The great tribe rose from their caves and quickly became the dominant force of the Rawlinwoods through sheer numbers. No force of the forest could slow their expansion and it seems to be reaching a critical mass. Perhaps something could have been done long ago to stop, or at least slow the savage army's growth. But now nothing short of a miracle can save the forests and town that now sit helplessly in the shadow of the looming tide of destruction.

    María had been locked in her Tower for quite some days, only to get out to wipe the goblins and beetles that may had tried to assault her keep. Whatever she was doing in there, is a mistery to everyone. But now she's out and wiling to help the rest of adventurers in defeating the goblin and bug menace…

    ((stupid work has kept me away from this for too long!

    One morning several days after the fall of the Silver Valley, General Theaon was seen speaking with the hin refugees. Soon after the demoralized hins were seen gathering what they could and heading north under the escort of the Troff Legion General and Adelie.


  • _A number of adventurers fought a seemingly endless onslaught of goblins and beetles in a last ditch effort to drive the hoards out of the Silver Valley, the numbers were overwhelmingly against them and they began to feel the weight of the foes as they closed in for the kills.

    The battle went from a fight to save the hin folk to a fight for survival when suddenly huge clouds of red gasses erupted from deep within the ranks of the enemies all over the fields and above the cliffs. In an instant hundreds of the vermin fell over dead and the goblins grasped at their throats as blood spewed forth from their eyes, ears and noses as they fall over dead.
    In a panic more and more goblins tried to push out of the gas before they too succumbed to the vapors and fell over dead.
    As groups of reinforcements came to take their places more and more red clouds sprung forth ripping the life from anything that was unfortunate enough to be within the cloud of gas as well as any that dare attempt to enter it or flee through it.

    The heroes now had the few remaining enemies trapped between themselves and a cloud of death, their spirits renewed they continued the fight until every last greenskin and bug lay dead.

    After the battle as all fell silent a ghoulish looking woman with black eyes, garbed in pale white robes was seen walking among the mountains of corpses, a twisted grin on her face._


  • Not very far from the Silver Valley, an unusually furious forest witch spent a large part of the time fencing off large waves of goblins and bugs near the Misty Pond area mostly on her own, much as a territorial beast would do. Her shadowy figure crowned by two red glittering eyes of fury more to the likeness of a vengeful wraith than the amicable, beautiful half elf most people have known. Jab after jab she fought hand to hand using her spear until exhaustion. When eventually the party that was escaping from the Silver Valley found her, they joined forces to deliver a last strike in their retreat, removing another few dozen vermin and greenskins from the forest as they sought shelter within the walls of Norwick.
