I quite like the quadruped, certainly the most menacing of the images.

"Interesting" Vanri comments as Teclis let's the group know his suspicions, "didn't the letter of introduction mention that the city watch was being attacked? I seriously doubt common street thugs would have the resources to enhance themselves magically, so this may not have been a random robbery"

"Even if it was a trap, I doubt they learned much of us other than we are capable of defending ourselves." Vanri mutters. The swordmage cleans his blade on the cloak of one of the fallen bandits before sheathing it and tying the peace knot to secure it. He starts to walk away, then stops...

Vanri looks at his allies "You think it is worth chasing some common thugs down for information?"

A: Because this is a playtest and this way they get to test 2 different spell casting systems. B: The Wizard gets an extra spell slot

@inspatorium if you look through the archives they usually have unmarked maps for the adventures Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Archive

Sure no problems there :)

At Althaea's urging, Vanri uses the chaos of general mellee to slip up to the comander, introducing himself with a studied lunge to size up the brigand's skill Shift to D15, MBA +19 vs AC ad8+8 damage

Yes, my bad. Aegis of assault lets you teleport next to the marked target, aegis of ensnarement teleports the target next to you. Will correct it in thread.

Just narrating the follow up to Vanri's attack, move to G13 and mark G1 Vanri's magically enhanced blow sheers through the thugs feeble attempt to block it, his blade slicing deep into his torso. Before the body has hit the ground the genasi turns and advances on the leader and his two...

Replace Slayer with Guardian, give the fighter a shield and warhammer and suddenly he is absorbing damage instead of dealing (as much) of it. And given his higher hitdice and Hp he would be better at it than the cleric of Moradin. The fighter that is being tested here is the most basic redbox...

Vanri snarls at the second thug who has moved up to him his blade sweeping down on the human, a loud boom echoing across the battlefield as he channels his arcane power into the swing. Standard Booming Blade +19vs Ac 1d8+8 damage Movement - if the thug drops, Vanri will move to G13 and use his...

Vanri needs no further motivation as he springs forward towards the closest foe. The elementa smiles at the thugs as his blade flashes towards him "You should have talked, now I claim your water" I am assuming tents are difficult terrain Move to K16, basic attack (+19vs AC 1d8+8 damage)...

Unless otherwise noted Vanri manifests his Sand and Cinder manifestations

"Seems we have a welcoming Committee" Vanri notes as the thugs make their approach. "I don't suppose you would be willing to speak before the sand drinks blood today?" The Genasi asks the approaching brigands hopefully, although his weapon, Foebinder, appears in his hand. Vanri will start at...

If you don't like long rest healing all HP, Mike just tweeted this https://twitter.com/mikemearls/status/206129402579394560

Judging from what they said in today's podcast as well as the live chat, they are no where near close to looking at final statblock formatting for monster, so I am assuming this is just a temporary measure. I think going away from the 4e style monster block would be a bad idea, as having to...

But bushwacked is significantly different from sneak attack in conditions required to use it.

Just browsing those rules now, you can't take a rest while you are unconscious. So the only way to get from unconscious to alive and kicking, that I can see, is time or magical healing

Next to cities, oceans and other large bodies of water were an alien concept to Vanri. The concept of spending several days cramped aboard a ship with no land in sight was a not pleasing one. The genasi will be spending the majority of the voyage on deck where he can at least get some fresh air...
