Pinging @runekyndig,@kwll.
OOC:
Sorry about that - its this ducking read/unread bug that have been plauging the site for months now. I didn't see there were new posts. Thank you for the pings.

OOC:
@runekyndig,@kwll for that matter, we never decided on a loot apportioning method. Do we want to split by value, by item and have an honor system if it is lopsided, RP everything?
OOC:
For common gear, we distribute them as we see fit. Nelly is a melee character. Armor, shield and a handweapon is relevant for her. But please take the bow.
When we get to a tradesman, we will split the coins from the gear we brought to sell.
I say, lets bring the weapons but leave the rest, and move on.

OOC:
Alex juggles (and throws) daggers. He’s also a dual wielding melee character in the right situation, but being a cheat not a fighter, those situations are rarer for him than for Nelly.

Igrem helps search the goblins, and looks at the tracks and marks around the road with concern. "Where do we go now? Do we simply continue?"
OOC:
Sorry for the delay, hectic week.

Let's split items on the basis of who needs them more. As per the coins, we can either split them evenly or track the amount as a single pile to be used whenever needed. I'm fine with both.

The most obvious options, after dividing the loot, are:

Where to? Public

Continue to Phandalin to deliver the goods that are in the wagon and rest.
Follow the northwest trail to rescue/find the human and the dwarf who were dragged away.


You're free to discuss it In Character or try something else, of course. Both choices have potential consequences.

"Those are our patrons horses, are they not? They seem to have been kidnapped by these goblins! We should see what happened, but carefully. I’m not sure I can withstand another ambush like that. Trail them until evening and then make camp?

That sounds like a reasonable plan. We cant diviate to much either, we are committed to delivering goods to Phandalin, but if we can stage a rescue then we should.

After a brief exchange, its decided. The usable gear is collected quickly. The shortbows and quivers are bundled together, the daggers wrapped to keep their edges from biting through packs, and even the leather case is loaded into the wagon. Everything else—teeth, slugs, moldy bread—is left where it fell. Some things aren’t worth carrying.

With Alex stabilized as best as can be managed and the wagon secured, Nelly takes the lead. She parts the brush on the north side of the road, revealing the narrow, half-hidden trail and motioning the others forward. The path is cramped and uneven, clearly not meant for wagons, but it bears the unmistakable signs of frequent goblin traffic.
OOC:
Nelly, you have the best Naturecraft and Perception rolls. So I guess you will lead the way, right?

Either way, before we end this thread, its time to level up!
[ +- ] Level up
For Igrem, you just need to do steps 1 and 3, I already did the rest.

For Alex and Nelly, please note that this was not a Safe Rest, therefore you do NOT fully recover your lost HP and healing die. They only increase by the new amount.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance. =)

"Yes, it does make sense to at least inquire if a rescue is possible." agrees Igrem, while helping searching the corpses, piling up the loot and disposing of the goblins' bodies.
OOC:
Added 1 point to the Influence skill

Rolls

HP increase roll - (1d6, 1d6, RA)

1d6 : (4) = 4

1d6 : (2) = 2

OOC:
Leveling Up
Also, understood. Will have 1d6 of 2d6 max at this point due to only catching breath and not safe rest.
Added new skills to character sheet.
Also, clarification check. It seems to me that the last two of the four new abilities can be used unlimited times at will. Is that correct, GM?

Edit:
Added 5hp to current and max
Added 1 skill point to finesse
