The Search for Frosty #1

So we were off on a new adventure tonight with our friend B as the DM. (He's the Paladin in the other adventure) It's his first time DMing, so we were all very excited to see what he had in store for us. Our roster looks like this:
Pyre Fierceshot - a ranger archer
Alora - a sexy human sorceress
Bavmorda - a sneaky rogue
& Brunhilda - a 1/2 orc barbarian (me)
The adventure started with us gathering in town for a festival which we heard would feature an archery and combat contest. A great unique way to get us together. The archery contest began, we all assumed that the ranger had this one in the bag. Bav shot at the audience, Alora hit on the mayor, and the ranger fumbled one of his shots, allowing Brunhilda to take the crown. It was time for the combat contest. Alora dazed her guy (with spells and other assets), Pyre pined his guy with arrow after arrow, Bav managed to lose to her competitor (Johnny Cobra), and Brunhilda easily took out her guy, allowing her to win that competition as well.

The mayor then asked Brunhilda to help him find a stolen sword, his beloved Frosty. She makes him help her gather the party, and then he sends them on a test of merit, to clear rats out of a house. They accomplish this rather easily, but find a wererat (it's a wererat?) in the farthest bedroom. Brunhilda fell into a pit, and Alora got bit by the nasty thing, but eventually they won and reported back to the mayor.

He then tells them that the sword is with thieves that have gone west. He also is very adamant that they need guides to help them, but the sorceress is very against the idea. They make their way after the mayor buys some cure potions since they have no healer and puts them up at the hotel. The follow the ranger into the woods and end up at the house of one of the guides who insists on taking us the the bridge. Along the way they were ambushed (kind of) by some hobgoblins. The sorceress conjured a floating disc and pointed out one that was escaping then sicked Brunhilda on him. Brunhilda ran, and ran followed by Alora surfing on her disc.

They found a cave and barged right in finding a group of goblins, and more came later. Bav became a goblin slayer as Brunhilda couldn't hit anything. They also came across a bugbear who's head is now attached to Brunhilda's belt. They tore apart a sleeping quarters, some just searched, others threw tables. They crawled through a bunch of rat tunnels and found themselves outside again.

Due to the late hour, our adventure stopped there, but we are really looking forward to continuing our search for Frosty.
