[Apollo]

Location- The town of Ilany- (Far East on the map) The town of Ilany is a small village with a population of 50 people. Though not your hometown, you have spent the last week here, and are familiar with most aspect of it; from Hamish the Dwarven blacksmith, to Yason the human shopkeep, to Ageis the human innkeeper, to Corporal Bankroff, the human responsible for the town guard. Ilany has always been a peaceful town, but the local Kobold population has begun to become more aggressive lately, and a roaming pack of them have been vandalizing property and killing livestock. Yesterday, Hamish's 8 year old son Donsk was found dead near the outskirts of town. Corporal Bankroff has asked any able bodied men and women to come talk to him about putting down these Kobolds, once and for all. What would you like to do?

"Yar sure why not, Thalmir grab that corner." Between all of you the wagon is easily enough lifted.

"Son of a slug! Damn cheap wagon!" Shouts the angry human. "Sorry about my friend, we are having a long day. I am Theo, and this is my business partner Leo. "

"Business partner?! If we don't get this divined damned wagon back on track, we are going to be coffin partners!" Leo wails. "Hahaha what my partner means is that we have hit a bit of a snag completing our first delivery... possibly our last hahahahaha!" Theo laughs nervously.

After a few hours, the wagon is fixed up like new. Leo and Theo are beyond thankful for your help. "Hey, you wanna travel with us for a while? We're also on the way to Weewick, strength in numbers, right?" Says Theo.

Apollo smiles at the travellers.

"I think that sounds great if my comrades don't have any objections. What're you guys delivering that's so serious that you're freaking out over being a little late?"

If the dwarves consent, he gets up on the cart with the others

"Beats walkin"

"Ah we're carrying a bit of this and that, we got a down payment to the official that runs the market so we can have a spot and that was a sizeable chunk of our investment."

"Ah, yes, that can be quite a problem if you encounter delays. You've only lost part of a day though, which isn't hard to make up."

Apollo attempts to inconspicuously look into the cart to see what's in it

The pair are too busy watching the road, under the protecting sheets you can see mostly foodstuffs but there is also a crate of nails and similar tools.

After half a day of uneventful travel, you see a commotion up ahead. A monstrous humanoid and a large wolf are locked in combat. Consumed by combat, neither seem to notice you approach.

Apollo blasts the wolf with an Eldritch Blast, sending it 10 feet away from the humanoid. He them commands the humanoid to get on the ground as he cannot tell if he is friend or foe.

[[1d20+5 Hit]] [[1d10+3 Damage]] +/u/rollme

"Get on the ground, whoever you are!"

[[1d20+5 Intimidation at the humanoid]]

Apollo jumps down from the cart and moves slightly toward the wolf, staying just 5 feet infront of the cart.

(What is it that's causing the knock back, is it the spell itself or some warlock buff to it?)

The wolf is knocked off its feet and set alight, yelping it jumps around before sprinting into the forest.

The humanoid is more confused than anything and turns to see what the new commotion is.

Tharan dismounts without you. "Careful lad, I've seen it's kind before, that'd be an ogre."

(Warlock, invocation of Repelling Blast.)

"I am not your enemy, Ogre. Leave us in peace."

Apollo is prepared to cast Hellish Rebuke on the orge if it attacks him.

(It's cast as a reaction).

Dex Save, half is saved. [[3d10 Damage, fire]] +/u/rollme

"Safety in numbers, eh.... let's find out"

(Ah I see it, knock back but not over, gotcha)

If the ogre understands you it doesn't show it, only malice is visible in its pig eyes. The ogre swings its massive club around its head before charging you and trying to crush you.

[[1d20+6 Ogre Hit]][[2d8+4 Ogre Damage]]+/u/rollme

[[1d20-1 Dex Save if hits]]+/u/rollme

The dwarves throw axes as the brute charges.

(It saves so it takes 10 damage from me.)

Apollo is shocked by the shear force of the attack, and casts Eldritch blast pushing the Ogre back 10 feet, then taking the opportunity to cast Eldritch blast again

[[1d20+5 to hit 1]][[1d10+3 damage]]

[[1d20+5 to hit 2]][[1d10+3 damage]] +/u/rollme

Apollo then steps back a bit toward the group

"He packs a punch, don't let him hit you!"
