Scales of War Part 01 Rescue at Rivenroar

[cogollo]

Although the Hobgoblins in room 15 can be considered part of his guard, I did not like that Sinruth had no bodyguards. I also wanted to make the encounter with him a little bit more epic.

So I decided to give him two Bodyguards. I did not want to add minions as bodyguards, but regular Hobgoblins would be too tough, so I will combine the Goblin Warrior (Level 1 Skirmisher) with the Hobgoblin Grunt (Level 3 Minion).

Sinruth's bodyguards will be two Hobgoblin "Skirmishers". They will use the same statistics as the Hobgoblin Grunt but with 29/14 HPs and damage of 1d8+3 with their longswords. They will have a Strength of 16 and will be Level 1 Skirmishers (100 XP each).

As I said before in my comments about the Gnomes, I will give Sinruth and his bodyguards some alchemical items.
Each of them will have 1 Tanglefoot Bag (Level 2), 1 Alchemist's Frost (Level 1) and 1 Herbal Poultice (level 3). Sinruth will also have 1 Dragonfire Tar (level 3).
In his chest, Sinruth has 2 more Herbal Poultices (level 3), 1 Clearwater Solution (level 1), 2 Tanglefoot Bags (Level 2) and 1 Lockbust Chalk (level 4).
