Session 2 was played on Thursday 03/08/23.

The group ended the first session with a long rest, well we retconned that and they started the session having a chat before the long rest started. Basically, when the game started someone forgot to have the characters introduce themselves, so now, around a campfire getting ready to sleep the group of adventures finally tell each other who they are and why they are there.

After resting the group got back to exploring the cave, where they got into a fight with the remaining Goblins. First to attack is Lock, he whips out his bow and lines up a shot at the nearest goblin, and fires, but as he lets go he tries to push out a fart or something and completely misses his shot and whacks an arrow right into the arse of party member Colwyrr (maybe Karma?) The fight moves on and Miller moves forward to attack the enemy and spots 4 goblins in total, he shouts back to the group what he sees, and as he does so Colwyrr removes the arrow from his arse badly and loses more health, he then retreats around the corner leaving Miller pretty lonely. Luckily he's ready for any approaching enemy with his quarterstaff...

The first goblin to attack rocks up to Miller, Miller swings at the Goblin but misses by an inch, the goblin cackles and retaliates smacking Miller and hurting him slightly, the next Goblin decides Miller is a good target to practice their aim and shoots him with an arrow which puts Miller out for the count. Here Lock steps up and jump down the 20ft high bridge, runs over to Miller and jams a potion of healing into his mouth and revives his companion before retreating and hiding in the shadows. Osrick is up next using Entagle which restrained one of the Goblins, up next is Pompo who is now able to rush into the room and use Thunderwave on all the goblins.. and Sildar, the companion of Gundrin who hired the group to help with transport. Well, with Sildar being down already he is knocked out and smashed across the floor by the blast, some of the goblins are badly damaged.

The fight continues and a Goblin fires an arrow at Colwyrr doing just enough damage to take him out. Colwyrr is down but not out. Luckily enough, Osrick can heal Colwyrr and bring him back to 5 HP. The fight carries on and Pompo does another Thunderwave killing 1 goblin and damaging the 2 remaining significantly. Another shot from the goblins puts Osrick down, but only for a short time as Miller helps him. Yeemik was the last goblin standing and died at the hands of Colwyrr, after the battle the party helps Sildar, gets the crates from Klarg's room and heads to Phandalin.

While delivering the goods to Elmar Barthen the group decide to berate the poor shopkeeper to try and get extra money and cheaper goods. Mainly Lock if memory serves.

The group while talking to Elmar first hear of the Rebrands, after they head to the Bluelion Coster where they deliver more goods that they found in the cave full of goblins. The owner of the store is thankful and rewards them with gold. Here they hear more about the Redbrands. The group then head on over o the local inn. They get a few drinks in them and gather more info on the Redbrands they heard about.

They heard the Town Master is the person who hired the Rebrand to guard the town, so after it gets dark Lock cases the Townmaster's Hall, he sees a faint light in the back and decides to pick the lock of the window and climb in. As he climbs in sitting in front of him is the Town Master very angrily staring directly at Lock. After a 'pleasant' conversation, they arrange to meet the next day. They guys head back to the inn where they talk to Toblin the Bartender and hear about another inn in town that is frequented by the Redbrands, the guys head off to check in on the place and get stopped by 4 Redbrand Russians. Currently, only Lock is engaged in conversation with them, but it goes south and a fight is about to break out. What will happen? We'll find out in Session 3 of GRcaD&De.

These have been ready to post since last week
