TUW: The Outpost

[Waynan]

Joining in with Taylar, Raven Elk attacks with his spear.
OOC: 54, 38 (mulligan: 83)

 

[Kwargrow]

Since his bludgeons are ineffective, Taylar intends to change tactics and will attempt to Heat the wolverine he is engaged with, using Lighter Pine to enhance the effect, hoping the creatures will fear fire. He will use his bludgeons to aid in his physical defense.

... Raven Elk... spear.

Adisakti continues to assault the wolverines using both knife and saber. He will bend chemical waylines to enhance his athletic skill.

Changing tactics, it is Raven Elk who is now unable to hit the agile wolverine. The beast bites at him twice during the engagement, but catches only clothing. Taylar uses a piece of lighter pine to cause some internal heat damage to the monster but not enough to generate a visible effect. Raven Elk adds some acidity of his own. The animal is now dazed and hurt

Adisakti and his beast seem to be engaged in some violent dance that, as yet, produces no contact.

Only a few seconds of time has passed. The voraciousness of the wolverines is undaunted and they continue to assault the three men.

In a flurry of blows, Taylar will use his bludgeons again, attempting to beat down the injured wolverine in front of him.

GM: NOTE: The bludgeons of Taylar do 12 damage, due to having the Heavy Melee Skill.

Taylar whirls his small, yet heavy bludgeons in a flurry of motion like some small leaves caught in a rising thermal. He hits the beast four times in the course of the action, all blows landing about the head. The crack of bone is audible. The noise coming from its mouth abruptly halted. The animal hits the ground, dead. The action of Raven Elk designed to aid the situation becomes unnecessary.

Adisakti begins to fare better, poking and slashing the wolverines, both when striking and when defending. Only the saber proves effective enough to cut through the animal's thick hide, but the creature sustains injury. Adisakti does not.

The remaining wolverine snarls at Adisakti, showing no sign of departure.

Knowing that much of what he has been trying to do has been barely effective, Raven Elk still tries to help his friends anyway he can. Spear uprated over his head, he charges the remaining wolverine that is facing off with Adi. Whether it will matter or not remains to be seen.

Adisakti has no choice but to continue to fend off the ravening wolverine.

Adisakti is quite a bit faster than the ferocious wolverine but he cannot make an effective enough attack with either weapon to cut through the animal's thick hide.

While in the process of closing to help his friend, Raven Elk bends chemical waylines to acidify the fluids in the beast's body. This causes further harm to the animal.

It takes three seconds for Raven Elk and Taylar to flank the monster attacking Adisakti. In a mere fraction of a second of distraction when they arrive, Adisakti slices his saber into the thing's gaping jaw, cutting back along the jaw and into the neck. The wolverine hits the ground, dead.

Adisakti takes a deep breath. "Thanks!"

He then continues to breathe heavily, letting his adrenaline settle. Taylar and Raven Elk have both overcome their initial impediment from the noxious spray. Amazingly, no one is injured or even hurt.

"A wolverine is dangerous at best, deadly for those unprepared or unable to defend themselves," Raven Elk says between a couple of coughs to rid his lungs of the fumes from the musky spray, "but, to encounter two and of such great and dire of size an aspect is something that I only had heard tell in lore and campfire tales. To actually encounter such beasts...", he trals off, the wonderment in his voice completely undisguised.

 

[Kwargrow]

After checking to ensure the wolverines are dead, and his partners are uninjured, Taylar intends to search the area around the battle site first. He intends to search the dead wolverines for anything unusual, then will begin skinning, removing teeth, fangs, and any other parts that might have proclivity to manipulate waylines from the deceased creatures.
Taylar says, "This should be enough hides to make new tunics for our recruits. We should head back to Refuge."

"Agreed." says Raven Elk.
"What can I help carry?"
