The group returns to the site of their recent battle with the bastard kobolds. They then remember that the kobolds were approaching their hiding place along the road. Checking back they way the kobolds were coming, they don't have to look for long until they find the spot where the scaly buggers entered the roadway.

Khellek gathers the others in a circle, "Can any of you sneak ahead and be a scout so we have an idea what the scaley bastards are all about? I know i can't and I'd rather not charge right in" the shifter asks

"Not charging in sounds weird. But getting more information before, wise." Tarrk nods and looks at the others, his massive frame not build for stealth.

"Oh, it's not that we won't charge in, but that we'll know just who to charge at, getting the most out of our surprise" Khellek replies.

"I guess we go with Tarkk's suggestion, & charge in." Khellek says, adding "Shall we have Basher7 and Tarrk lead, followed by myself and Aimhirghin, and Elerosse bringing up the rear?"

Has anyone heard from Lou lately? Is he ok?

Following the Kobolds' Trail

Re-Post: [The group returns to the site of their recent battle with the bastard kobolds. They then remember that the Kobolds were approaching their hiding place along the road. Checking back from the way the Kobolds were coming, they don't have to look for long until they find the spot where the scaly villains entered the roadway.] New: The trail leads just about due south from a bend in the King's Road. Basher7 and Tarrk are leading the party, followed by Khellek and Aimhirghin. Elerosse brings up the end of the procession.

After you follow the trail for about half a mile, small glades of trees lead up to a cliffside waterfall where a stream tumbles from the top of a rocky overhang. The water descends the side of the hill and flows away to the southwest.

[Perception Checks, everyone, please]

Khellek looks around at the surprise waterfall, his attention distracted as he ponders how beautiful it is. He makes a mental note to come back here under full moonlight.

Moving carefully with Craghammer in hand, Basher7 examines the glade and the waterfall for potential threats.

Elerosse has been following the group sort of aimlessly, deep in thought and only half listening. As the group approaches the waterfall, Elerosse looks around only half paying attention.

Clarification: You are seeing the waterfall (the line of light blue squares on the map) from below and at some distance. There is a line of trees about 20 feet thick, and some additional space also, that separates you from the stream.

(Still need a perception check from Tarrk/WD, but if we don't get it soon, we can go ahead and proceed. The perception check is kinda fudged anyway, because I've already decided what you can and can't see because of the trees.)

Here's a map!

Tree Cover
For these trees, they count as difficult terrain,which means that each square of trees that you enter costs 2 squares of movement. If you are in trees they give 15% cover for each square of trees that a missile must enter to reach you. So 15% on outer squares, 30% two squares in, 45% three squares in, and so on.

OOC: Um, so do we see the Kobolds on the map? If so should we roll initiative or am I just jumping the gun as we wait for Tarrk/WD?

Ooc: I was waiting for WD, but since he posted without giving us a perception check, I guess that means that he doesn't see anything!

Initiative and actions, please!
