Last night’s Macchiato Monsters was neat-o.
Wildhorn, the minotaur having taken vengeance for her murdered father and reeling from being slimed by an acid ooze; Gangor, a human warrior still seeking some decent equipment and feeling hungry; and Flavius, an illusionist and actor and enigma, continued their search of The Caves of Chaos.
They chose another cave to enter, in search of goblins. The found some pretty quickly and Wildhorn set out a bear trap and threw a net, hobbling the goblins attempts to attack. After a few blows exchanged, the heroes captured one in the end, and sent him forward to the next door.
The captured goblin betrayed them and called for help, and so, was kicked through the open door onto the floor in front of three other goblin guards. A well-placed crossbow bolt from Flavius burst a lantern, showering the goblins in burning oil. Only two goblins escaped.
Around this time, Gangor decided to eat nearly all the food that the party had in an attempt to heal himself. Snail soup, turnips and butter, and even tinned dungeon rations, all gone away to feed his insatiable hunger.
They fought some hobgoblins who had taken a group of merchants hostage; they then led the merchants and their guards out of the caves. The merchants were sure to add the names of their saviors to the walls of The Halls of Merit back at the keep.

Gangor spent his reward money on a tavern, and grew fat and content.
Flavius took over the torchbearer and loot-lugger guild and supplied future delvers with equipment and retainers.
