Summary
Background
The Tavern
Things started off kind of odd with Trash Panda physically calling the other runners of her team before establishing a DNI connection.After a rough day TP had gotten high before the run even started. This was only a sign of things to come. The group decided to arrive to the meet at the same time, and sat with the J at a middling retro-styled Chinese restaurant. The team all ordered food while they negotiated pay with the J. While finishing up their prices, leading at 22K, the runners start to notice something strange going on. They could've swore they saw that statue move, and was the J always a bunny?
The Adventure
The team, having the location and objective to acquire a scroll, set out for the goblin king's fortress! The party gets on their mighty steeds and ride towards the keep, only getting a little distracted along the way by parking their hroses in the middle of the road and dealing with the peasants. Afterwards they all arrived at the fortress. seeing goblins out front, and deciding subterfuge was a better alternative to combat, TP disguises the party as goblins. They are let in, and goblins are dancing in the center of the castle. standing high above is the Goblin King (Who looks suspiciously like David Bowie but also a goblin) on his balcony. As the party steals various objects, Mickey attempts to set the Goblin King on fire. TP very quickly takes care of the situation by simply turning off Mickey's flamethrower. Meanwhile, Kost does her best to actually get what they came here for. She asks a Goblin how to get into the boss' room, and is taken up to find the scroll. There, the goblin decides to try and get frisky. Kost reveals that they are in fact not actually a goblin and attacks them. The crew comes busting in right as combat starts, and Lucky ends up firing a shot. Within a couple of seconds the guard is subdued non-lethally but the guards are still on their way. TP casts invisibility on the unconscious fellow before they enter. Lucky finds the scroll and proceeds to jump out the window.
Lucky had mounted his horse and was being chased by a chimera being rode by a goblin. Lucky used his trusty bola to take them down before facing off against a dragon. An epic battle took place, with Lucky cunningly using lightning to smite the dragon, their arch-weakness! With that he was able to successfully escape and complete the mission they had been given by the bunny Johnson.
Meanwhile, the crew remaining in the building were surrounded by goblins, pointing their bows at the team! They told them to hold still and wait while they figured things out. Soon enough, the goblin king arrived. Mickey had asked him if she could speak to the manager before being informed he was the manager.
