I am looking for a group of 3 Mages to escort a shipment of goods from Estark through the Tonga Mountains and to a border village in Llanowar. The reason for this is because a new Goblin has come to power in the Tonga Mountains and he has refused any deals that I have tried to make with him so that I may get my shipments through his territory peacefully. The reward for this mission is any 2 spells from the current Standard.
The group makes good time heading from Estark City to the border of Kush and the Tonga Mountains. The Tonga Mountains are a craggy set of mountains that is full of nooks and crannies. Upon entering the mountain range they start to hear a strange drum echoing off of the cliffs of the mountain range, but the source of the sound is still a good distance away. They also notice that from time to time that they can hear small rocks being kicked and they have the strange feeling that they are being watched.
"I've a feeling there are goblins about...or something like that. Have no fear, we can take care of them." Oh dear...perhaps I should have practiced my spells this...month...
"drums aren't really good, but there are worse things that could pop up..." Wynn said, checking her surroundings, especially behind her. "We should keep going, and not cast any spells unless we have to. would still be useful to get a decent mana base, but I guess we'll have to wait..."

Falnir choses not to draw any land to himself and continues to be on the lookout for any signs of what is watching them. He also draws the silver dagger out of his hair and begins to twirl it between his fingers. If something does try to get the jump on them he will be ready.
"Suit yourself" Wynn said with a shrug. "I just want to be able to cast anything at a moment's notice. the last thing you want to have happen is get ambushed and not be able to cast anything." She then gripped the rock face to assist in her acsent, the terrain was getting pretty steep.

Falnir: You know what i just can't understand is why we havn't been attacked yet. Things are definately a little to settled. Its almost as if we are walking into a trap. Maybe you have the right idea Wynn but if nothing does appear i just fear the backlash of that much built up mana.

"Well, and I mean this with little as little offence as possible, goblins are generally really stupid. There are exceptions of course, but these are just common mountain goblins, their idea of a trap would probably be 10 of them rushing at us head on. If it is a trap, there must be something more behind it."
"Making it 10 on 3. I'm not bad at direct combat; but even with magic that'll be a hard fight..." Wynn said to the hanin. She still didn't know what either of the others had waiting in their spellbooks, but most of her spells weren't exactly suited to be cast right off the bat...
Wynn kept a close eye beind them still, making sure that the group couldn't get blind-sided.

From every nearby rock and hiding spot twenty Goblins jumped out at the group. They are armed with crudely made swords and spears. The goblins form a semicircle around the group with the side that will lead them towards the drums open.
Roger slams his hand to the ground causing a bog to form under foot, with this he uses his newly aquired black mana to summon a Festering Goblin.
"How will they like fighting their own kind?" He then uses a mental command to have the goblin return to him and not attack until instructed to do so. "I'm playing defensive for a moment, I need to build up." He pulls out his dagger and is ready to fight the goblins.

Oh, and whats the starting life? 20 like normal or is it less for the RP?

Roger summons another swamp and two more Festering Goblin, the three zombies stand beside him as he waits for the goblins to move. "Just one more moment, hold them back please."
Wynn was also caught unawares, and there were more creatures than she would have liked to deal with. She concentrates and slams her palm on a slab of level rock.
"Forbidding Watchtower!" A tall stone tower appeared, shining with white light. Wynn would be able to draw mana from the tower if she needed, but not right yet. Of course, she was more worried about the rest of the group, and the shipment.
"So our hanin is a black mage. Probably already knew that but it's good to have variety. his creature should be able to help as well, killing 2 goblins by itself. And he's probably got a kill spell in htere, so we might be able to pull this off..." After quickly compiling her thoughts, Wynn also drew her dagger, ready to fight off the goblins if they came too close...

Roger slams his fist to the ground again, this time the ground turns sandy, almost like a liquid sand. Quicksand was forming about 5 feet in front of him. With his two black mana and one colorless mana he then casts a new spell "Lord of the undead!" he says as a humanoid Zombie steps out of his summoning circle in front of him. Around him the Festering Goblins seem to get stronger.
Falnir Smiles. This black mage is proving to be quite the formidible ally. Following suit of Wynn Falnir draws not a plains into existance but rather a Forbidding Watchtower even though the tower is useless for now later it will prove invaluable.
With the rest of his mana returing to him Falnir leans down and places a hand on the back of each of his wolves and starts muttering an incantation. In a bright flash of light each wolf seems to gain a aura of Holy Strength.
Lands 2W and 1 nonbasic. Creautes 2 (2/3). Life total 20.
Wynn was watching the Hanin, the creautre he just summoned came from a rare gem, he probably only had one other spell left that he hadn't shown. But that was no matter, Wynn was more focused on summoning another plains to reinforce her mana supply. She didn't summon anything yet, a problem that she planned to shortly amend.

Falnir looked slightly confused at Wynn. He had expected something by now but only saw land. Maybe there was something different about what this mage was packing. Hopefully he would find out soon. but for now it seemed as if he and Roger had things under control. The battles was curently a 9 on 20 putting the odds at something like 2:1 odds that Falnir liked

"Okay okay, I'm moving!" Wynn summoned another plains and decided to start acting. After all, what good were spells if she didn't use them? Wynn drew on the mana from her two plains while her watchtower's white mana surged through her as well. She quickly formed a summoning circle and slammed her palm down. "Skyhunter Prowler!" As she released the spell, a giant winged beast emerged, a leonin knight riding on the creature. she mentally commanded it to not attack yet, force the goblins to start attacking before countering.

Falnir then sets his hand down on the ground and summons a plains. This in turn flattens out part of the land around him.
in mana pool
Falnir then directs someting twoards the caravan driver.
Falnir: Driver any idea if these goblins are the same ones that Mr. Peanut's dealt with?
"How will they like fighting their own kind?" He then uses a mental command to have the goblin return to him and not attack until instructed to do so. "I'm playing defensive for a moment, I need to build up." He pulls out his dagger and is ready to fight the goblins.

:symw::symw: in play.
With his mana Falnir places both of his hands on the ground and creates 2 summoning circles and in the center of each forming a pair of Tundra Wolves
He mentally commands them to stay near by.
Falnir: Draw near little goblins but beware of my friends here their barks are not as bad as their bites. With that Falnir Smiles

The Caravan Master points to the on with the helmet and spyglass.
"That is the one. He is their leader now. Ib Halfheart, Goblin Tactician"

Ib stands tall and smiles.
"Everybody but me—CHARGE!"
And with that the wall of 20 2/2 Goblins charges at the group.
