Adventure: Escort Duty (DM: KarinsDad, Judge: TBD)

[FourMonos]

Out of curiosity, Jayce checks the bandits one last time, wondering if he recognizes if any of the slain bandits were at the tavern last night.

Sirrah mostly ignores Hikalas' posturing and wipes the blood from his blade before putting on his back again. After catching his breath, Sirrah mounts his horse and retrieves his lance.

OOC: Spending 1 healing surge.

Tana makes a cursory check to see if any of the bandits' equipment was enchanted; even distracted, she knows the arcane arts quite well.

"It seems unlikely these were deliberately set upon us, but archers on terrain like this does not play to any of our strengths." She said.

Tana does not detect any magic.

None of the bandits were in the tavern last night that Jayce saw.

 

[Voda Vosa]

"Let us not delay further." Hilakas says, "Come Jasper, where to now?"

 

[KarinsDad]

Jasper stands up from where he was hiding behind the tree, his cloak all covered in mud, twigs, and wet leaves. Is it over? he asks.

 

[FourMonos]

"Aye. That it is, Jasper. Seems that as untraveled as this area is, it is still populated by bandits."

Jayce starts to light a tobac stick, "I was worried that we tipped off the ruffians in the tavern last night, and they attempted to ambush us and see what you were transporting that was worth a squad of men for protection."

He takes a drag and exhales, "But none of those men we killed were from the tavern. Now I'm worried we wandered near some bandit camp. Which would explain the traps already laid out for protection. One of them got away. There could be an attempt to... well, let's get moving quick to your sister's place. Eyes open, comrades."

 

[KarinsDad]

The party continues down the trail.

About a half hour later, the trees thin out a bit, but visibility is still poor as the rain continues when suddenly, monsters come storming towards the group.

OOC: Please roll initiative. And, please make sure your stat blocks are up to date with Dailies used, Action Points used, Healing Surges used, and current hit points. It doesn't rain, but it pours.
