Goblins: Life Through Their Eyes

And dwarves only have three fingers plus the thumb. Thunt has done a good job of differentiating the races without making them so alien as to be unrecognizable.

Kin sure seems to know a lot about Kore without being told.

Kore's the kind of news that gets around, if you're the sort of person that has the opportunity to get news. I would assume she learned about him while living at her village. Thaco knew about Kore, too (although the other members of the Goblin Adventuring Party didn't), and so did Forgath.

Kin also has a high Int score, which by D&D rules means she has an advantage at Knowledge checks.

Wont do her any good in the end, of course.

Also she's a monster with a challenge rating, and that dude's a paladin in world that seems pretty killhappy towards monsters regardless of how meek they act.

It's probably ingrained by this point.

What's Kore's score on Sense Motive? Could Kin convince him to leave with a Bluff check?

She'd need a pretty good bluff to explain why she only has 3 fingers...

If Thunt wants Kin to escape this encounter, then they are about to be interrupted, though I don't know by whom. If not, then Kin is toast, although if Kore is clever enough, he will keep her alive as bait.

Kin has a contraption for an arm... Or, at least, can claim that. The "I got mangled; see, you totally don't want my low-level arse along for the ride" angle is open.

She is a wizard, she might just have an illusion spell that can make her hand appear to have 5 fingers, as long as she can surreptitiously cast it.

Alter Self is ths lowest-level spell that has a decent chance of working, assuming she knows it.

I think surreptitious casting is out the window. <points at the white and green mists of tattle-telling>

The mist means her IME is already visible, so casting won't make it appear and give away that a spell is being cast.

To be clear, I don't think it will work, but not because I believe the room will tattle on her. It's because I know what comic I'm reading.

I think her best bet is to make all the panels be the same colour and hope she can survive the fall.

I think Kore is more likely to survive the fall than she is.

Featherfall is an incredibly useful spell to make some scrolls off when exploring a world full of trappy dungeons with bottomless drops.

Though by the same token, Kore may have a magic item for that. That is a higher investment than a scroll (he can't use a scroll because not on his class list), but he could have.

Update!

Aw, Kin! You missed the monster and hit Kore instead! That's not okay!

Indestructible anatomy is a very useful thing.

I have a feeling this isn't going to turn out well for her.

I mean. That was a given once Kore showed up.

Then again, she is a level 5/6 Wizard with like +6 LA, a guaranteed grapple, and a now indestructible appendage with which to grapple.

Update: Looks like Kore is being surrounded.

Ugh, why does the action always become impossible to follow when Kore shows up? Is he supposed to be using his shield levers to stand back up again for the first few panels? Is that what's happening?

Yes, he’s ratcheting himself back upright into a defensive position.

I wonder whether the green runes behind him imply that Kin is hiding there.
