Baradur's End - Part III

[pathfinderq1]

Kraegyn followed the more woodswise members of the group through the forest. The heavy brush and trees were nothing like the farm he grew up on, but he knew about how to avoid being tripped by roots, and remembered to watch out for the 'random branch in the face'. It helped of course, that he was strong as an ox, and his heavy armor let him just force his way through most of the brush...

Jack does his best to keep a lookout of the area as they move through the marshland, but his eyes are not as keen as the lizardfolk and they are forced to help him out.

He does manage to find a particularly useful herb in the morning, which bolsters his spirits after the earlier failings, but the afternoon sees him almost eating a poisonous berry. Even he can't understand why he thought it was a good idea. Jack ends the day rather glum.

Karis, Kraegyn, and Rellek make an impressive sight, flitting through the trees to the center of the patch of forest. Unfortunately, the only one to witness their athletic display clearly is Joshua. He tries to focus on the terrain as best he can. His chosen path is clear - nevertheless, he has trouble keeping up with the rest of the party, and they have to slow slightly. (OOC: Joshua gets 18 for nature, adding +1 to his endurance roll of 12 = 13. )

One of the archers that must be running behind decides to take a shot at the fleeing party - an arrow flies through the forest and hits Karis in the back, despite the distance and cover of trees (OOC Randomly chosen target = Karis. 1d20+10 -2 for distance -2 for cover hits AC 23 for 1d10+4 = 8 damage.).

OOC: RESULTS

Karis, Rellek, and Kraegyn pass round one. Joshua fails, losing a surge.

Karis takes 8 damage

ROUND TWO - FIGHT! errrr RUN! Same rules as round one. The forest is thicker now, so you will have superior cover against any arrows coming your way in round 2.

[sblock=Jack and Bavak]
The lizard folk are remarkably patient with you, despite your feeling at times that you are being something of a burden. Though they have to discard many of the specimens you provide (some of Jack's offerings in particular elicit what you have learned are gestures for laughter), they seem genuinely pleased with some of your other finds.

You return to camp, whereupon the lizard-man you take to be something of a shaman investigates the haul. Reasonably pleased, he begins to prepare the ingredients.

OOC: Three successes = three potential potions. If you would like to aid the shaman in his alchemy, you may provide either a nature or an arcana check to help him - you may make this check only once - 20 or higher grants him a +3, 15 or higher a +2, 10 or higher a +1.

The pained grunt that slipped out from Karis's lips as the arrow struck home in his back acted as a spur to Joshua's attempts to negotiate the forest.

He picked up his stride and sprinted easily and effortlessly between the forest giants.

Kraegyn continued to push his way through the underbrush. The thicker growth was less familiar to him, and it was obvious that the pursuit was distracting him- he didn't want to run, he wanted to stand and fight... In his distracted state, he managed to blunder into a tangle of brambles- and while they couldn't get through his armor, they did manage to poke beneath several of his scales in spots where the armor didn't cover him.

Rellek sought to continue to move quickly through the undergrowth conscious of the attention their flight had attracted.

[Sblock= round 2]

Despite the deep gloom Rellek's quick responses made it easier for him to slip past the entangling undergrowth.

Though strongly tempted to turn back and give that archer a piece of her mind -- a piece about eight inches long, made of sharpened steel -- Karis grits her teeth and puts on a burst of speed.

[sblock=ooc]Perception 21, Athletics 19. The perception gives +2, so that's 21 for athletics. [/sblock]
