The mission of the party of multiclassed rangers is to track down a Cleric of Nerull, a half orc that is surprisingly human looking that also has a minion that is a hunchback.
We left out village tracking the half orc as fast as we could, during our tracking we discovered other fallen rangers that had been tracking the half orc before, they had been stripped of there possessions.
We arrived in greyhawk after tracking the individual to there, as such we have began looking and searching for them.
One of the party mages joined the mages guild during our time in greyhawk while ones self joined the mercenaries guild.
We enlisted the aid by earning favour with the high elves of the city, as well as having the note that our bretherin had fallen sent back to the elven villages.
We went out in search of one of Ehlonna's groves finding it destroyed by what we suspected to be undead creatures but were unable to find the druid whom was caring for the grove, as low level clerics we could only perform ceremony and headed back to inform the high elves.
The High elves dispatched a cleric whom had wolf companions whom now bases himself out of the place.
Over time we have begun informing numbers of temples aligned to the human lawful gods those whom would hunt nerullian's in till the bitter end.
While in search for leads and our money declining two of our party joined the thieves guild hoping for information, once they were able to join an 100 gold bounty was set for information leading to the clerics capture.
We discovered a young slum child during this time, injured by some means being goodly characters the party decided to assist, though the human temples refused any aid, we decided to have to deal with this ourselves, gathering herbs to at least try and calm the wounds.
We rented a cart and horse from the elves and used it to travel to the grove, we hoped the child through mentions of undead and the like had seen the cleric.
Though after having the disease of its body purged, it seemed there was no information, we decided to leave the boy with the cleric of the forest and left off back to greyhawk.
With funds running shorter and shorter we decided to take an escort duty, our trader of the group bartering for more pay, due to two party members not including ones self thinking it was too low pay.
We headed out with a caravan consisting of three carts, alongside 4 other mounted mercenaries, we headed towards divers, we had agreed to get extra pay for handling an encounter.
During the travel we were set upon by a pack of wolves though due to our nature as followers of Ehlonna we were able to talk down the creatures and cause them to withdraw and leave us most likely sparing there lives.
We weren't far from divers when we met another encounter, we were set upon by two ogre's ambushing us with boulders, one of the outriders was instantly killed by the ambush.
We set upon them by range, the outriders using there crossbows and my bretherin using there bows as I the melee fighter went behind to ambush the ogre's.
Using ones magic user spell, Sleep i was able to disable the unwounded ogre causing him to collapse while the other fell to a hail of bolts and arrows, after which the slept ogre was swiftly dispatched.
Though i had suggested seeing if there were any more ogre's it was decided to just head on to divers, which we arrived at after that without issue.
After being payed and gaining a day of rest. we decided to get back to greyhawk we decided to see if there was any caravan's going back to there, though we lost the job due to a group of mercenaries pulling rank for a job to escort a carriage to greyhawk.
Thus without a job, we decided to begin heading back on foot, during the day we were passed by the carriage that we had been pulled rank on.
Not long after that we came upon the carriage group again, it had been set upon by a large number of ogre's the group being attacked by 6 in a paired triangle formation, the carriage had already been knocked over and one of the mercs killed when we made visual.
Being goodly characters it was morally obliged we assisted, though it would be risky and we would most likely withdraw if it got too dangerous, the mercenaries engaged with the ogre's were well equipped, in chainmail riding light warhorses.
The three remaining attacked a pair each, we decided to use the tree's and brush to head behind the closest most isolated pair of ogres.
The biggest of each pair wielded a bastard sword in one hand while the others used clubs.
Before we could engage them, the biggest of the mercenaries fell in battle to his pair of ogre's which were furthest from us.
The plan was as follows, we needed to backstab the closest set of ogre's and then wipe out each pair after that.
By time we engaged two riders remained battling the 6 ogre's one had been wounded though the other was in perfect health so far.
The thieves attacked first attempted to backstab the ogres, our mage thief landed her attacks using there set ability shocking grasp, the ogre was swiftly killed by axe and electricity collapsing to a heap.
The other thief attacked the smallest ogre, though he fumbled his weapons and thus missed, for the record hes called Garret.
Though it was time for myself the fighter to engage, attacking from the rear of the ogre myself, with a slash of ones longsword, the creature was caught in a critical area, the slash killed the creature before it could even react.
We had managed to free one of the outriders, whom did not respond at this time to us, he quickly charged off to assist his remaining comrade.
At this time we decided what too do, we had been detected by the engaged pair of ogres whom bombarded myself with rocks thought none of them landed.
The others ran off to flank behind the group the mercenaries engaged while i moved to engage the two ogre's whom had begun attacking us.
Moving quickly to close the distance on my pair of ogres, using the spell - Sleep on the largest, annoyingly the spell failed and the creature remained awake.
This allowed the largest to engage, though it seemed the smallest stayed back, as the largest swung he fumbled his blade causing it to slip from his grasp.
My comrades continued moving around to flank the ogre's battling the mercs, but before they arrived there the mercenary that had been engaging them from the start was cut down from his mount.
The ogre battling myself in melee, would collapse in our combat, the command word DIE put the creature into a short slumber, while the smaller one continued to throw large rocks.
My comrades aided with the mopping up of the other two ogre's, while i dispatched the ogre that had battled me in melee before it could awaken.
The final ogre would fall to an arrow lodging in its neck shortly after from my female comrade.
As it fell i would check the carriage, it seemed the people inside one appeared to be a young woman whom seemed of human nobility she had a head injury, while the maid had suffered a broken arm.
The one surviving mercenary was happy to have survived there battle, and we were rather happy to have been pulled rank on.
Casualties of the battle were 3 mercenaries and two carriage drivers whom were buried at the side of the road.
I treated the broken arm as best we could splinting it as a comrade tended to the head injury using a cure on that, to aid in some stabilization.
We spread out the equipment from the ogre's we gave a portion of the coin on the ogre's to the mercenary while we kept the equipment and the rest of the coin.
Though the carriage had been made inoperable, we all together had 6 horses that could be still used and one surviving mercenary, before we could finish up another caravan heading to greyhawk came across us, they were kind enough as people of the road and also most likely seeing the ogre corpses to offer us assistance in returning to greyhawk.
At the first waypoint, i checked the items we had gathered from the ogre's one of their bastard swords had magical properties and as the groups main fighter, i called first loot on the magical sword, though its magic was weak, magical weapons are useful. During this stop ones self checked upon the maid with the broken arm deciding to use a cure of light wounds just to aid with its recovery.
We eventually returned to greyhawk, the rest of the journey had been uneventful and we waited in the mercenary's hall in till the noblewoman and maid were taken away by carriage, we recieved a bag of gold each from the families chamberlin, a nice fee of 30 gold EACH for our assistance.
That is were the story is so far.......
