Message: <blockquote data-quote="Thomas Hobbes" data-source="post: 1816909" data-attributes="member: 8623">Leaving the body, the bird, and the branch behind, the group continues onwards.  Ioleta is still in quite a bit of pain from her recent brush with the foliage.  The group continues on for some time, following the trail through numerous loops and switchbacks, with it never being terribly obvious where the trail is heading- the bandits obviously expected to be followed and have covered their trail.  The trail is followed for a few miles, then lost, then found again, and then the group begins to tire.  No futher traps are encountered.Garret can tell two things very early on: One, at least one of the bandits is still heavily burdened, although the load seems to switch shoulders periodically.  Two, the bandits are moving as fast as the group is.  They are neither gaining nor loosing ground, except when he looses the trail, at which point the bandits gain another hour's lead.  So if they want to catch up, they will have to do as they have done before, and risk running themselves into exaustion.ooc: Ioleta's at 2 hit points, meaning she's not likely to last long if the group goes gung-ho.You're moving at .5 miles/hour (20 ft base move, 1/2 for forest, 1/2 for tracking) and they're moving at the same (20ft base move due to burden, 1/2 for covering trail, 1/2 for forest).  You can move at normal speed (1 mile an hour), but you take a -5 penalty to track checks (which you continue to roll high on- 15+ except for one 3.)I played out the whole 8-hour day.  If you guys want to insert anything or change tactics, feel free.</blockquote>
