[QUOTE="Mewness, post: 5899000, member: 14889"] Pezock sneaks after Hú Lí, while the others enter the jungle to circle around from the side. Not far from the path, Hú Lí suddenly hears the hissing of a giant lizard--one very much like the creature that the cannibals brought along when the group ambushed them at Pezock's old camp. The lizard is chained to a tree, but lunges at Hú Lí, who barely manages to avoid it. The noise attracts the attention of two cannibals who are stationed on a platform about twenty feet off the ground. They yell something at the lizard (which appears to have no effect on its behavior at all). One of them spots Hú Lí in the trees and throws a javelin at her, hitting her in the side. Hú Lí does not give them a chance at another shot, and retreats into heavy cover. The sentries do not raise any alarm, however--they don't seem to have noticed anything odd about Hú Lí's animal form, despite the unusual tail. Circling around the camp with greater caution, Hú Lí manages to get a reasonable view of the layout, though she dares not venture too close. Eventually, she and Pezock rejoin the others. [GM][URL=http://dice.brainclouds.net/Result.aspx?ID=DPVGAKVP]Cannibal javelin vs AC, Black Fox; damage 14(1d20) +8 = 22; 3(1d8) +6 = 9[/URL] Hú Lí is hit for 9 damage. You can heal and take a little rest, if you like. Anyone heard from [MENTION=6676736]Pentius[/MENTION] lately? He hasn't posted in a while. Anyway, a map is posted below. The characters are now in the jungle south of area G. Here is what Hú Lí managed to notice: A: The tower. A sturdy construction, although it doesn't seem to have been built for defense. In fact, it looks like a lighthouse. Could it be functional? B: A fenced area connected to some sort of outbuilding. Outside the fenced area is a revolting pit of refuse. The smell is absolutely vile, and made all the worse by the heavy, moist jungle air. C: A wooden building. Out the back is a sort of guard tower with two cannibals on top of it. D: This dilapidated hut looks like some sort of storage area. E: This is another fenced area. Hú Lí saw some humanoid forms in it--prisoners maybe? F: A dilapidated hut that looks rather disused. It also smells pretty horrible. G: An open area with a firepit in the middle. The sentries are reasonably alert, so any overt action (either moving into view, moving anywhere noisily, attacking something) is likely to cause an alarm to be raised. However one of you can perform at least one surprise action before we go to regular initiative (assuming you want to fight, which I hope you do by now).[/GM] [/QUOTE]
