It’s refreshing, at times, to see how nicely they treat NPCs, and in particular the good guys. They’ve not gone far however, maybe forty-five minutes in to a journey which they estimate will take another hour or so, when suddenly… Heian and Arannis both scream a warning. Two ferocious looking large cats- Panthers, leap and lunge out of the dense jungle. Bad Guys 350 XP Level 1 Encounter Fey Panther Level 4 Skirmisher x2 [sblock=The Monster Manual] [CENTER][url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/9162439930/][img]http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3809/9162439930_c079e4f2ed_o.png[/img][/url][/CENTER] [/sblock] Arannis is clawed and knocked to the ground, Brevill somehow manages to avoid the same fate- the Warforged is completely unaware, taken by surprise, and yet manages without trying to step aside at the last moment. The Warforged grins as the ferocious predator slinks past him. His grin doesn’t last for long, the first arrow whizzes by his head, the second THUNKS in to his chest. “What…” Brevill starts up. “Archer.” Heian shouts, which is obvious really, none of the adventurers spot the sniper however. Bad Guys 750 XP Level 3 Encounter Fey Panther Level 4 Skirmisher x2 Human Comiqui Veteran Hunter Level 5 Elite Artillery x1 [sblock=The Monster Manual] [CENTER][url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/9162443976/][img]http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7322/9162443976_ff062f6580_o.png[/img][/url][/CENTER] [/sblock] Arannis scrambles back to his feet. “What’s going on?” The Eladrin asks. Brevill’s attacker turns and circles back, rushes at the Warforged. “Fight Me!” Brevill challenges the beast, although the creature had no intention of fighting anyone else, “Strength of Erathis!” Brevill intones, and then slices and cuts. His longsword slams in to the Panther and deflects the beast, opening up a great gash on the cat’s head; then comes again and opens another gash on the Panther’s flank. The great cat lands awkwardly, it looks sickly, terrified even. BLINK! The creature suddenly disappears. “What the?” Brevill shakes his head, confused. At which point we roll Monster Knowledge checks. “Fey Panthers”, Lia yells, “… they can teleport short distances- watch out!” BOOF! A section of the undergrowth bursts momentarily in to flames, the second Fey Panther dashes out, unharmed. “Damn!” Shuva screams and stomps her foot. BOOF! And again the second Panther avoids Shuva’s fire. The creature pounces and slams in to Brevill, the metal man seems to be particularly favoured by the felines, he staggers (Brevill’s down to 7 hit points). Heian has better luck than Shuva, his Sacred Flame catches the second Panther moving away, the other feline is long gone- back in to the jungle to lick its wounds. “Sehanine’s spirit heal thee!” Brevill’s wounds all but disappear. The Cleric grins, and then ducks as an arrow misses him by inches. Arannis manoeuvres quickly and blocks the remaining Fey Panther’s exit; the Eladrin stabs the creature, skewering it badly (a critical hit!). The creature backs off, clearly distressed, Arannis is in the hunt however- he moves forward and spears the great cat again (and rolls maximum damage). The remaining Fey Panther mewls and makes desperate sounds, which only increase in volume when Lia spins a dagger in to the cat’s flank. “Should we try to save it?” Lia asks, clearly upset at the sight of the forlorn kitty-kat. WHOOSH! Too late. Brevill spins around and decapitates the beast (with another critical hit). The adventurers try to stay low, all the while desperate to spot the Hunter, but the jungle has again returned to silence- the skull-faced Comiqui has fled. Encounter #8 Complete Bad Guys 750 XP Level 3 Encounter Fey Panther Level 4 Skirmisher x2 Human Comiqui Veteran Hunter Level 5 Elite Artillery x1 The kids, after a short rest, do the best they can to find the trail of the fleeing Comiqui Hunter, which mainly involves shuffling around the jungle for ten to fifteen minutes, not even the Coyomi men can find the path. “To the Shell-Blower.” Arannis states, “and quickly, we don’t want news of our arrival to spread.” The adventurers head off, taking special care this time to keep an eye out for other ambushes, or else ferocious beasts of the jungle. Comment: And so endeth the third session of play, and another meal eaten, and again the kids are having fun. The Island of the Dead seems to be considerably more dangerous, they like the challenge- and they love fighting, at least when they’re winning. [/QUOTE]
