Conquest of Bloodsworn Vale [OOC]

[FreeXenon]

We might be able to borrow a horse or three from the Captain which would solve most of our problems?

 

[s@squ@tch]

I checked, and Percivilis' horse can take 265 lb more before hitting heavy encumbrance, and Jerivan's horse can take 273 lb.

Again, that is IF their characters want to ride on a horse. I'm assuming that the dwarf and Shandul will probably opt to walk.

I'm sure being the brave adventurers we are, and in doing this captain a huge favor, he would loan us horses. We should just tell the stableboy the captain said we can, see him wet himself in uncertainty.

 

[Boddynock]

Shandul can ride at a pinch but has never considered himself a horseman. In general, it's easier in the deep forest without a mount! So, unless there's some pressing reason to ride, he'll choose to walk.

Character pic for Aldur added to character sheet.

 

[Azgulor]

The only reason Aldur would bring a horse is to carry stuff. Pride will make him keep up and if that doesn't work, then anger and spite!

 

[s@squ@tch]

Sounds like walking is the best course of action -- leaves all of the characters battle ready.

 

[YeOldeAlbatross]

Okay, so at least some of the PCs will be traveling on foot. That's fine. Shall I then assume that your expedition will begin the following morning? To leave on the current day would be to arrive at the campsite after dark, more than likely.

 

[s@squ@tch]

I don't care either way for Percivilis and Jerivan -- we could leave tonight and get there a bit after dark and not worry too much.

 

[Boddynock]

There's no real benefit to arriving in the dark - and we may miss, or even worse trample, tracks that we can't see.
