Mike,

Odd question... Does Skath hear is own movement eventhough he may seem silent to others?

OOC: He does not - the 'Invisible to Hearing Sense' advantage applies to the power, not to the listener.

The party makes quick work of breaking camp, and soon it almost looks like nobody was there at all. With the light of the rising sun trickling through the thick jungle growth, the small party falls into their now familiar order and sets out through the trackless jungle, hoping to a few miles closer to their goal today.

Skáth has been flying point for about an hour. That feeling of tension, like a storm about to break, is still in the air. He gradually becomes aware of a strange clicking noise, just loud enough to be noticeable to his acute senses, coming from ahead. About that same time, he catches a glimpse of movement in the undergrowth from the same direction.

Skáth will hold his postion until the party catches up. While he is waiting, he will tune the noise and movement in as best he can. He will concentrate fully on determining what this might be.

Once the party catches up...

" I hear an odd clicking noise up ahead. I also swear I saw something in the undergrowth in the same direction. Be ready!"

Cerallos

OOC: Sorry I usually get emails informing me of new posts, I haven't gotten any so I figured there were none! I appologize. Let me catch up.

To Athelstan: "I have but not in a good long while. The best I can remember that would be quite delicious! Thanks for getting me thinking about that now." Cerallos says with a slight smirk on his painted face.

Upon Skathe's announcement, Cerallos holds his staff at his side with his left hand and brandishes his long sword with his right. "Strength and honor."
-to borrow a bit from Gladiator.

Bring it on.

Gavril

"Do you hear the clicking of bones or is this some fresh horror?" asks Gavril as his stands in the stirrups trying to see.

stoping dead in his tracks:

"Aye, bring it on." (in a whisper)

Skáth

"Do you hear the clicking of bones or is this some fresh horror?" asks Gavril as his stands in the stirrups trying to see.

"At this point I can not determine the source, bones are probablya s good a bet as any."

OCC - I also have not been receiving e-mails, not sure what is up with the site.

 

[Mattress]

(whispering)

Perhaps it's fair maidens of the scantily-clad nature with lobster for strangers...

 

[Scotley]

OOC: I got the impression from the meta forum that they are cutting back on some services in an effort to improve the speed of the boards. Emails of posts may be one of those.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

OOC: Unfortunately, it's not fair maidens . . .

IC:

As the group regathers and holds a hurried and (very) quiet discussion about what could be out there, six very large creatures spring through the undergrowth to the attack. These are humanoid, in the neighborhood of seven feet tall with very long arms. They resemble nothing so much as humanoid preying mantai (mantises, whatever). They carry no weapons, but they are covered in chitinous plates, and those plates on their arms look awfully sharp. They move quickly to the attack - those who have missile weapons already drawn may fire once at point blank range, but drawing weapons afterward may prove difficult unless they've made special provisions for such an occasion.

OOC:

Any character who has Survival (Jungle) skill or any Knowledge Skill (KS) related to the jungle or the classification of various monsters may roll a check (at a significant penalty) to see if they have any knowledge of such creatures.
