Goblins of Thornwood

You are a goblin hunter named Max who has recently been contacted by a blacksmith for a job. You have travelled three days to the villiage of Thornwood and have entered the tavern. ''Bartender'' Greetings traveler! Can I get you a drink? [[Yes! I am weary and could use a refreshment -> Drinks]] [[No thanks, just point me towards the blacksmith. -> Blacksmith]]

We only serve ale. That will be five coppers. (Roll a D20) Greater than 10: [[Yes I have the money. Here you are -> Drink is Served]] Less than 10: [[Sorry I don't have enogh. I suppose I'll ask that man tover there if he's the Blacksmith -> Blacksmith]]

''Blacksmith'': Thanks for coming. As you heard, some valuable items were stolen from my shop. I was contracted to make several mithril daggers for a wealthy Elven prince and the raw ore was stolen before I could start my work. The value of the ore is several years wages and if I don't recover it, my family will surely be indentured for a generation or two. I will make it worth your while to recover the ore for me. ''Max'': I have dealt the the vermin before. This will be easy. What does the job pay? ''Blacksmith'': I will pay you 200 Gold Pieces and will give you free smithing for the next five years. ''Max'': [[Sounds good to me! -> Start quest]] [[I think it should be 300 Gold Pieces. Mithril is quite valuable and so are my skills. -> Negotiate]]

As you enjoy your beverage you take a moment to observe your surroundings. There have been goblins roaming the forest behind the town and many valuable items have gone missing. You see three other people of interest in the tavern. Who do you approach? [[A fair elven girl with fine clothing looking quite upset at the quality of the ale -> Elf]] [[A broodish, armed half orc who has seven empty ale tankards in front of him. He is currently finishing off an eighth -> Half Orc]] [[A older man with salt and pepper hair wearing a brown leather apron. He is nursing a small cup of ale. -> Blacksmith]]

You approach the Half Orc and inquire about the Goblins. Roll a D20 [[If you roll above 15+ -> Half Orc information]] [[If your roll betweeen 5 and 14 -> drinks with Half Orc]] [[If you roll below 5 -> Pass out Drinking]]

Not all roads lead to Rome Best of luck on your next adventure!

You finish your negotiating with the Blacksmith and leave the tavern. [[Head to the Blacksmith shop to search for clues. -> Blacksmith Shop]] [[I don't need clues. I know exactly how to hunt Goblins! -> Right]]

''Blacksmith'': 300 Gold pieces is far too much. I might just have to move onto the next Goblin hunter. Roll a D20 [[If you roll above 17+ you will convince the Blacksmith to give you the 300 Gold. -> Start quest]] If you roll 8-16 [[you will agree to the 200 Gold. -> Start quest]] If you roll below 8 [[you have offended the Blacksmith. -> Better luck next time!]]

You approach the Elf girl and inquire about the goblins. Roll a D20 [[If you roll above 15+ -> Elf information]] [[If you roll betweeen 5 and 14 -> Send you away]] [[If you roll below 5 -> Thrown out]]

The Half Orc's name is Ugnath and he asks you to share a drink with him. As you're talking he discloses that he personally knows the leader of the Goblin horde, a distant uncle of his named Ugoth. [[You thank him for the information and go talk to the Blacksmith -> Blacksmith]] .

The Half Orc demmands that you have drinks with him. You have a tankard and talk about the weather. [[He send you away when he realizes that you're not that interesting. -> Drink is Served]]

The Hlaf Orc demmands that you have a drinking competition with him. [[You pass out. -> Better luck next time!]]

It turns out that she is an emissary sent on behalf of the Elf Prince to find the stolen Mithril ore. She knows the Goblins are only after weapons and would gladly trade the Mithril for 20 swords and spears to fight rival warg tribes. [[You can use this information to your benefit. -> Drink is Served]]

[[The elf is obviously bothered by your approach and waves you away. -> Drink is Served]]

It turns out that the Half Orc is her body guard. She is offended by your approach and [[asks him to throw you out. -> Better luck next time!]]

You enter the Blacksmith Shop. (Roll a D20) [[Above 12. -> Shop Clues]] [[Below 12. ->Finished Finding Shop Clues]]

You enter the woods behind the villiage and easily pick up on the Goblin trail. Before long, there is a fork in the road. One trail leads left, the other right. Which way do you go? [[Left -> Left]] [[Right -> Right]]

You notice some footprints concentrated around the armory and damage to the locked door. You also notice that the gold, silver, and gems used for ornamentation have been left behind. Roll D20 to find more clues. [[Above 14 -> Keys]] [[Below 14 ->Finished Finding Shop Clues]]

You found all the clues that you could. [[Better head to the woods. -> The Woods]]

You find a set of keys under some rubble in the corner of the room. They unlock the armory. [[That's all you could find. ->Finished Finding Shop Clues]]

You continue along, careful to avoid any traps or snares set by the Goblins. Through the trees, you see smoke rising and hear the low hum of Goblin chatter. By your estimate, there are no more than 4 or 5 of them. How do you wish to proceed? [[Rush in, sword drawn -> Fight]] [[White flag to talk -> Talk]]

The woods get very thick and visibility is low. Roll a D20. [[Above 14 -> Left]] [[Below 13 -> Fall into a Goblin trap]]

You fall into a Goblin trap. [[Trickery! -> Better luck next time!]]

You rush into the Goblin camp ready to attack! Roll D20 [[If you roll above 17 -> Crush Them]] [[If you roll between 10-16 -> Boss Fight]] [[If you roll under 10 -> Overpowered]]

Unfortunately Goblins are not known for their hospitality and they attack the second you are within eyesight. Roll D20 [[If you roll above 17 -> Crush Them]] [[If you roll between 10-16 -> Boss Fight]] [[If you roll under 10 -> Overpowered]]

You easly crush the Goblins and draw the attentin of their leader. A half orc named Ugoth comes out from behind a large tree and confronts you. [[He is willing to give you the Mirthil and leave the villiage of Thornwood alone. -> THE END]]

You narrowly beat the Goblins and draw the attention of their Half Orc leader who was hiding behind a tree. You are weary and will not be able to beat him physically. However, you may have some information that can help you in this fight. If you talked to the Half Orc in the Tavern, you may remember the name of his distant nephew. [[Ulguth -> Better luck next time!]] [[Ugnuth -> Better luck next time!]] [[Ugnath -> Boss Talk]] [[Ugneth -> Better luck next time!]] If you talked to the Elf in the Tavern, you may remember that the Goblins are only interested in: [[Weapons -> Boss Talk]] [[Gold -> Better luck next time!]] [[Ore -> Better luck next time!]] [[Food -> Better luck next time!]] If you searched the Blacksmith Shop you found: [[A gold sword -> Better luck next time!]] [[A orc-sized ring -> Better luck next time!]] [[A set of keys -> Boss Talk]] [[A sealed scroll -> Better luck next time!]]

[[You are overpowered by the Goblins and have been defeated. -> Better luck next time!]]

You have been able to give the Half Orc commander some useful information. Now, will he use the information and let you live? Or will he simply take the information and get rid of you. Roll D20 [[Roll 10+ -> Let's you live THE END]] [[Roll 1-9 -> Better luck next time!]]
