Olak

Despite the title of sentinel, Olak shares the same stats as other goblin warriors, except for a higher AC granted from a Scrapwood Shield.

Sentinel Olak is a goblin stationed at the entrance to the Goblin Camp during Act One. Olak and Warrior Puce are constantly found arguing with each other.

Involvement

Act One

Sentinel Olak will question any adventurers approaching the checkpoint and attack any that appear to be trespassing. It is possible to avoid combat by posing as a drow such as through  Disguise Self, bringing Sazza, using Illithid Persuasion, or passing an Intimidation check.

• [TRUE SOUL] [ILLITHID] [WISDOM] Stand aside (DC 5)
• [FIGHTER] [INTIMIDATION] To offer my sword to your boss. You can be my first demonstration, if you like. (DC 10 )
• [INTIMIDATION] I'm a hired sword - employer's inside. Stand aside. Now. (DC 15)
• [MONK] [INTIMIDATION] I could best all of your sentinels with my bare hands. Let me pass. (DC 15 )
• [RANGER] [DRUID] [NATURE] Beautiful animal. Does she belong to the Nordiland worgata family? (DC 5)
• [NATURE] Glossy coat on that animal. Does she belong to the Nordiland worgata family? (DC 10)
• [DECEPTION] Your leader summoned me. (DC 15)
• [DETECT THOUGHTS] [WISDOM] Read the goblin's mind.
  • I'm a messenger - here to see Minthara.

If the party attempt to gain entry to the Goblin Camp through a skill check other than an Intimidation check, or the party fail a check, Olak will ask the player character to smear Worg feces on their face to show their "war colours":

• Grimace and do what you have to do.  -1  -1  -1  -1  -1
• Smear the dung across your face. It's not your first time.  -1  -1  -1  -1  -1
• [BARBARIAN] [INTIMIDATION] That's nature's bounty. Helps the trees grow. Eat it, or else. (DC 15)
• [BERSERKER] [INTIMIDATION] I said. EAT IT. (DC 15 )
• Follow the rules.  -1  -1  -1  -1  -1

Optionally, the party may fling the feces at the goblins, initiating combat:

• Wink, gather the dung, and fling it at all four guards.  +1  +1  +1  +5
• [ATHLETICS] Scoop up the warm dung and fling it at Olak's face.  +1  +1  +1  +5

However, only the earlier Athletics check will blind Olak before combat.
