"Though if you will help us, we might be able to convince them to not kill you." Matthias says to the goblins

[OOC]Maybe we can get some information from them[/OOC]

[OOC]Ooh, that's not a bad idea. Goblins aren't very smart, and are notoriously cowardly except in large numbers.[/OOC]
Drawing up to his full height, Nico looms over the goblins.
"Surely you can provide us with more information in exchange for your lives."
Nico grins, showing a fearsome mouth full of sharp teeth almost as large as a goblin dagger.

They also need gold.

"If you tell me all about this place, I'll pay you."
He then dangles a bag of gold.

[OOC] Why even pay them? One of the goblins earlier said that money is worth nothing when you aren't alive, so just tell them you'll kill them if they don't talk :P [/OOC]

True, but then again, if they are gonna die, then they are not gonna do anything.

[OOC] Could people avoid using the forum quote tools, if you want to answer someone then could you use @ForumName or @PostID (the post ID is on the right in the same line as the forum name). It breaks the flow a bit, if you have to use a quote for some reason then place it in a spoiler please. Thanks. [/OOC]

The three goblins in sync all look back and forth from Nico's fearsome grin and the coin pouch swinging in Jacobs fingers. All three start blathering over each other to you. You don't understand any of it as their voices blend together into noise.

Noticing that they are not helping, they all stop, squabble over who will explain first (or that is your assumption as they talk to each other in their native tongue). They are quiet again, then each quickly put a finger and thumb up one of their nostrils and with a yelp pull out a long dark stand. Still in silence they compare their nose hairs.

One of the goblins turns round looking very smug, the others have a look of pure hatred. "The tower is hidden in a forest, it must be very old, much older than Kurk, the stone is all mouldy and everything, door's rotted too, Boss got us to expand the cellar, it used to end here, theirs a kitchen over their but Boss never kept it stocked much, that's where we ..." He pauses to take a very deep breath. "... sleep, that's where Boss sleeps, that is the dinning room, we don't use any of the other doors, that is strange place where Boss yells while we speak some strange language that Kurn don't understand, just before you Boss told us to attack some lady appeared and yelled at Boss, Boss seemed happy about that but Kurk don't know why, can Kurk have coins now?"

To save everyone going back to the OP, I've added this.
Spoiler
Also Kurk seams to have gotten everyone speach-less type-less or all my PC's have disappeared.

Sorry, been time traveling and ended up back a few days late :P
I was mainly waiting for Jacob or Nico to respond, since the two of them have the major bribe/threat for the goblins.

[OOC]Sorry, I was daydreaming about CandyLand or something just as frivolous.[/OOC]
Nico roars in laughter, and the goblins cower in fear, obviously mistaking the bear's mirth for anger.
"Well, it seems that I won't have to eat you this day." Turning to the others, Nico addresses them. "Well, cubs? Shall we attack now?"

Sorry for my inactivity, lets put this back on track.

He then tosses the coins to the goblins.
"Well guys, we got 2 options. We can burn everything out of here, or sweep the place and kill them group by group. My vote is sweeping the place."

Kurk leaps to catch the coin pouch, and is tackled from behind by one of his peers. The third then speaks while obviously waiting for the pair to tire. "You are not going to find much, other then us, Boss is the last one left. I'll help whatever you're doing for twenty silver."

[OOC] Just as a reminder, 20 silver is quite a bit of money. The average wage is 10 silver. [/OOC]

"Hmm..."
He thinks wildly.
"How about 15 silver?"

The goblin weighs some imaginary coins. "Fine fifteen, but I want five silver now. I'll take the other ten when when we exit the tower. And I want a fair portion of any loot." He then crouches down, getting ready to leap into the squabble over the coin pouch.

"Hey, I just came from a boss who promised five gold to each goblin under his command. He has still to pay up on a single copper - never mind the other..." He starts muttering some maths under his breath, quickly running out of fingers to count on. "So EXCUSE ME if I'm a bit sceptical about reviving my payment!" Snaps the goblin.

"What's going on ever there? I don't hear anyone fighting any more? I swear that if you lazy green walking... oversized worms are changing sides then I'll kill you too!"

"Give him some money in advance" Matthias says aside to Jacob "I'd rather him on our side for whenever his old boss gets here."

"Also, do you have a good healing spell? My right arm is a little worse for wear"

"Sorry, just to find the correct spell to my ethereal chest..."
He then casts spell and a chest appears,floating in the air.
He then pulls out another coin pouch, and the chest disappears.
He then gets five silver coins and gives them to the goblins.

"Thanks." He says taking the coins and pocketing them all but two. "I'll follow your lead." He turns to the fighting pair. "Kurk, Mello. We have new bosses." The pair stop feet in each other's faces and hand covering the small coin pouch (which somehow is still in one piece). "Catch." the goblin that must be Kor says, tossing his two leftover coins to the frozen fight and quickly swiping the pouch as Kurk and Mello each fumble over their single silver.

"So, when do we get to kill old boss?"

[OOC] Does Mello like chocolate? If so, then he really makes me think of Mello from Death Note. xD [/OOC]
