"whaindasevinells!" Spider blurted, as he was nearly trampled. He considered cutting down the beast when Goldenhorn's call to action got his attention. "As ya say, Gold'orn."
Lowering himself into a charging stance, he took off, bounding toward the bees. But instead of thrusting, he swung the huge blade like a bat, turning his grip so width of the blade bludgeoned the bees, swatting a handful from the air.

1. Lord Adelin Mallaby recruits me and some other adventurers from the Tavern. He asked for protection, on a trip to Allaria. He is to be wed to Elena of Terconis, daughter of the Count of Terconis. According to tradition, the wedding must take place at the ancient chapel of the Terconis family, and the chapel in Count's Crovale lies in the high hills of old Allaria. The lady and the Count are already there.
2. The adventurers board Starlight's Veil, Mallaby's brig. The ship is built for speed, not cargo or battle.
3. Intended Path: Land at Ristaren (100 miles south of Fromish), and make our way up the old highway to here. A mile or two off the highway is the village of Achirem, which is still thriving in the midst of rough country, so they say. From there we cross Derianis ridge, and then down to Crovale. The last part through the hills may be dangerous.
4. We land at Ristaren, and it is a small, poor town.
5. We killed a bunch of spiders.
6. We arrived at Achirem, where Kelvan told us to watch out for:
a. Bramble scar: some kind of trap/pit thing we can't avoid.
b. Hzaka Raiders
c. Ismene: Local robin hood bandit type. Lady, with a band of rugged ladies.
7. Get Jumped, or try to Jump, some Hzaka Raiders.
8. Meet up with Ismene's band, but managed to talk our way through it.
9. Encounter: Angry Bear, and...

Tyris darts out from behind the tree and lunges at the swarm of bees, swatting several more out of the air with his rapier.
[sblock="Actions"]SoT: 5 damage from poison
Move: to G7
Standard: Quick Lunge vs Bee Swarm 1 - Shift to H6 before the attack, 1d20+7=23 hits for 1d8+1d8=11/2=5 damage. (If Bee swarm 1 is dead from the last couple of hits, shift to F7 and make the attack vs Swarm 2 instead). After attack shift back to G7.
EoT: Save vs. Poison - 1d20=5 fail again.
Note: Quick Lunge also knocks the target prone, which for flying creatures knocks them out of the air normally, but I don't know how that would work against a swarm, all I saw looking at the rules for swarms was that they can't be pushed/pulled/slid, so may be the same idea here.[/sblock][sblock="Stats"]Tyris Male Shade Executioner 1

As everyone dogpiles on one swarm, Eraden moves in to lock down the other, hitting it and disorienting it slightly. Zardi takes this opportunity to move in to hit the first swarm, nearly eliminating it, but it's not quite enough.[sblock=Ally Actions]Eraden
Move: to F7

Mallaby is not a fully trained fighter. He will only defend himself on his own. He will however, follow orders.
As a minor action, any character can have Mallaby spend an action. He can't use more than the usual complement
(standard, move, minor) in one turn, but a PC's minor action can be used for any of them.
Try not to get him killed. He is paying for this, after all.[/sblock][sblock=enemies]Bee Swarm: AC 16, Fort

Zardi sweeps his axe in an arc around him, catching both bee swarms. His giant axe cuts through the first swarm, destroying it completely. As the first swarm dissipates, he yells "Fear not Graval, I will assist you!" and runs to attack the frog.

The first swarm breaks up as the remaining bees fly off in all directions. The second is starting to lose coherence.
[sblock=ooc]Great Cleave is a Close Burst 1. Since it's "close" and not "melee" instead of reducing the damage, you increase it by 5. I believe that would be 23 damage on each swarm.[/sblock]
