[QUOTE="CPaladin, post: 8245586, member: 7030144"] Session 4 (5/3/20) 3 Tar-Skard They plan a complex three-part raid on the orc encampment. They spend most of a day traveling to the orc encampment. They enter an area that has been completely ravaged. The farms are burnt out. Elyn insists on looting the burned out Hanalian campaign vehicles. She gets some decent quality weapons and a large supply of arrows—9 dozen. They reach the area of the camp at dusk. They wait for the morning. 4 Tar-Skard: Elyn and Moonlit Snow approach the camp. There are probably between 3 and 5 hundred orcs. They have very limited campfires under an overhang. They have tents. They have sentries. They are clearly the remnants of a bigger tribe, but still substantial. Elyn sends Matsuki back in, and it sneaks around, until she finds a large tent at the back of the camp. She climbs a tree, and peaks into the tent. There are bigger figures in there—three of them. They’re easily ten feet tall. They are armed, and obviously free to go where they want in the camp. Matsuki searches for loot—some have purses, but there’s no obvious treasury. Some of the orcs do have crossbows. Noah challenges their chieftain to fight. The shaman asked if he was a servant of Morgrath, and he said he was. So the shaman gave him a powder to eat. He did, and then started convulsing. Atla and Iados Rein start trying to loot interesting things. They find a tent with fetishes outside it, and look inside. They find some red powder, that’s clearly poison for humans. There are also several potions of cure light wounds, and some unidentifiable green liquid. Atla takes them all. Iados travels to the back of the camp and looks into the big tent. He tries to sneak up, but he trips and sprawls directly into the tent in front of three ten-foot tall creatures. He springs up and starts running like mad to try to get away. Moonlit Snow sneaks over to where Noah is convulsing. Iados tosses ball bearings behind him. All three of the large figures collapse in a heap. Iados keeps running and takes cover. Elyn gathered herbs to try to heal Noah. She gets a natural 20 on her survival check. Noah throws up violently after Elyn stuffs herbs in his mouth. He throws up everything and becomes conscious. He’s at a temporary -1d6 strength, and gets a 1. He’ll regain that in one night’s rest. Elyn yells really loudly, but not that loudly, for eating the powder stuff. He responds, “look, I did what I thought we had to.” “You could have died. Next time I’m not helping you.” [cont'd] [/QUOTE]
