Cheers to the First Successful Mission

General Summary

“So Orbash, there we were. We just got done fighting a few hobgoblins guarding the entrance to the lower ruins," gleefully exclaimed the large gnome warrior as he stomped his mug on the table. One long table in The Muddy Boots and Bloody Blades tavern was filled with the adventuring group the Magnificent Seven and their new friends the rageborn Orbash and Hathor the dwarf priest of Moradin. The adventuring company, new to the Vaasan Gate, were eating and celebrating in the aftermath of their first successful adventure into the wilds of Vaasa.

“So we move deeper into the ruin’s dungeon. Ulfgar was taking the lead but missed a pressure plate and the dart trap fires a salvo into our group. Luckily nobody is hurt too bad so we come to a barred door. We hear goblinoid voices from the other side and prepare an ambush. Prepare being the optimum word," says the gnomish warrior with a sideways look at the hin monk staring into the bubbles in his beer mug.

“So get this, while we are setting up the sneak attack, Hung Lo over there walks right up to the door and shouts out in goblin to open up the door. Well there goes surprise and the door opens and the battle was joined. A bunch of us were able to fire into the hobs from the hallway but the cover really ruined those volleys. And the hobs got cute too, they lob a few javelins into us then shut the damn door on us! We eventually fought our way into the room and overpowered them," the gnome said as he refilled his mug from the tankard.

“After that bloody business we delved deeper, deeper into the dungeon. A hallway leads us to the chamber of the bugbear leader of this warband and his hobgoblin sargents. This is where it gets a little blurry. We burst into the room with Ulfgar setting the shield wall. The bugbear goes into a rage and he and the hobgoblins beat down poor Jinx despite Ulfgar’s best intentions. Seeing him go down lets loose the rage I normally keep in check. I sorta loose some time and when I come back to my senses the bugbear and his goons are dead and we stand victorious," gleefully chirps the gnome as the adventurers clink their cups in good cheers.

“So with all the danger gone we search the rest of the ruin’s finding a little left over treasure from the ruin’s original builders. Lucky us, we hunker down barricade the ruins and spend the night out there. Luckily nothing bothered us and before dawn we high tail it back to here. Mission accomplished!”
