Call to the Four Lands - OCC

Ha! Have you ever had a cat sneak up on you? Now imagine a cat that's spent it's whole likfe surviving in a dinosaur-infested jungle...*plus rolled a nat 20 on their stealth check*

My friend's cat would routinely assault him in the night if he went downstairs to grab a glass of water. I'm surprised they don't give the dire tiger spring attack...his cat would leap from the shadow's, grab his leg and bite the back of his knee, then dart back into the darkness...

my cat did that too, it would scare the crap out of me.

she'd also attack anything under a blanket that moved. so we weren't allowed to have blankets, and I had to check the whole room if I brought a girl home. make sure she wouldn't attack. that would hurt to get a whole mess of claws on the buttcheek.

You were the closest to their meals...the others wisely held back

so! it was a trap, not for us t\but to catch the bad ol pudy tats!

Actually, I'm surprised they got the drop on us, with as high as some of our PC's perception scores are.

they are cats. they are going to be sneaky b******$. no matter how big they are!

I think the Natural 20 is the important part of this...as no matter how stealthy cats are...they have a hard time sneaking up on people who can hear a needle drop 100' away in the middle of a windstorm. Seriously, take a look at our Perception scores...Mourn is +19, Baelor +16, Vernon +13, Maighan +16, and Rych +9. Our group is almost impossible to surprise.

 

[renau1g]

Yeah, nat 20 + 15 stealth bonus left it pretty hard for the PC's to spot. I think Mourn or Maighan were close (I think 33 on their perception), although Mourn still had a 25% chance to detect them even with their 20.

 

[Rhun]

We are, by and large, a very "aware" group of PCs.

 

[Scott DeWar]

that was just a quick moment of bad luck is all.

 

[renau1g]

At least pugwampis weren't around .

 

[Scott DeWar]

sure fooled me. it sure looked like the work of those cursed creatures of unusual misfortune!

I think Ryan was just upset because his Quaggoth's didn't prove to be anymore than a 1 round delay! LOL.
