the Three O's: Orsik-Y-Ogre-Y-Ork
General Summary
The Group Enter the Ork Hide-out at Wyvern Tor where they find an Ogre, 6 Orks and Brughor Axebiter (aptly named for chewing on his axe) who dont notice them enter.
Orsik pushed on and throws down the heads of Grom and the Lookout at the feet of Brughor and challenges him to a one on one fight anything goes in exchange for the location of Cragmaw castle.
After some Smirking Brhugor accepts, but to the groups suprise Gog the ogre steps up to fight Orsik.
Orsik got an early lead with a critical inflict wounds spell before feeling the weight of Gogs Great club come hammering down on his left shoulder causeing his knees to buckle slightly with the weight. After two Great Hammer strikes from Orsik finding purchase on Gogs knee and stomach, Gog responds by laughing and carelessly trying to hit the small dwarf with his club. However Orsik proceeded to drain Gog's remaining life away from his belly with a single touch making the towering ogre turn a dull grey and fall back down clipping the burning longs on the fire.
Brughor shouts at the remaining party to not get involved and comes rushing in to attack Orsik with his great axe, also finding purchase chewing away at orsik's left shoulder, however with some well paced hit and a final spell infliction of wounds Orsik also dispatched Brughor by punching through his chest cavity, through his heart draining him of all life as a faint green energy can be seen around Orsiks fist.
Orsik Goads the remining Orks a final time before they all run out heading for the exit.
Quiminor lays bed of Ice immdiately before the trip wire, two Orks slip on the ice, two trip on the trip rope Seraphina set up and two escape heading for the Hills, who Quiminor quickly puts to sleep. Serpahina and Rat jump on the firt ork plowing into its chest, Arthur more gracefully places two swords in another in the heart and neck while Orsik uses his great Hammer to stop another ork fromever trying to get up again. Droop rushes into the cave to try to get a piece of the action, jumps over the rope but lands on the ice and slips up like a banana skin had been placed there.(whatever a banana skin is). Arthur manages to decapitate the final awake ork as it runs past.
the group take the two sleeping Orks tied up into the cave to interigate, after realiseing they have no useful inforamtion Orsik kills one while Arthur and Quiminor plead to keep the other alive.
The Group removed the bodies of the slain orks (not the ogre who served as rat's meal and bed for the night) and rolled the boulder over the entrance for a good nights sleep.
The group head out in the morning towards Old Owl Well where Seraphine finds some zombies emerging from a decrepid tower. One gets a bit too close to Orsik who pummels through its chest with a beam of radient energy.
A red cloaked, head shaven Hamun Korst emerges from a red and yellow tent off to the side. Quiminor recognises the tattoo from the as necromancy school from the The Red Wizards of Thay. The Group parley with the necromancer who tells them he is studying the ruins, and after showing off their fighting prowess of Ork ears and their newly tied up surviving ork, korst divulges a request to ask Agatha the banshee who the builder of the tower was, and lets them know the trail to the north heading into the woods of neverwinter from connyberry is the road to Agatha's Lair.
Korst heads back to his tent to continue with his work leaving the rest of the party for back up and head back to Conyberry...
