Elven Wedding - The race is Over, we are moving on

[Bront]

OOC: I'll do Jhonas for the race, seems interesting I'll break it down and make a post for it soon once I look him over.

Seeing no sign of Naith, and aware that there is an opening in the race, Salina quickly dashes off to the stables to retrieve her clawfoot hoping that she can retrun in time to take part in the race.

OOC: I don't have Excel installed on the PC at the moment, any other way I can view that file?

Thaean goes to retrieve Shaama and returns to the contest field, riding up next to his brother, the groom. In elven, "I hope that at least one of these engagements will get off without a disturbance," he says with a laugh referring doubly to his brothers marriage and to the last contest.

He tests the pull on his bow, "care for a wager?" He nods towards the other two contestants, Salina and Tuul, then leans in to his brother, "5 gold on the halfling to bungle things first."

"I'll take that bet." Your brother replies.

I've just reviewed stats and I have some updates.

Salina's Clawfoot (I have decided) is faster than the average clawfoot. Change to "Move 50 ft."

Jhonas will be borrowing Carver's crossbow (Feel free to roleplay it Bront.)

Thaean's bow is a Longbow, you can't use a longbow while mounted, so you borrowed a shortbow from one your Warband while you were retrieving your horse.



Please inform me how far your character is behind the start on one side, and away from the target on the other.

We will be using a “sliding” ride check, the better your ride check (including military saddle bonus), the faster you go.

Base move (walk): DC 5
Double move (Hustle/Trot): DC 10
Triple move (Gallop): DC 15
Four times move (Run): DC 20
Five times move (Run Feat required): DC25

Johnas approaches Carver "So, if you're not going to participate, do you think I could borrow your crossbow?"

Carver considers that for a moment. "Sure, that's what friends do. Right?"

Johnas chuckles "Yes indeed my friend. I'm sure it will serve me well."

Johnas mounts his horse, brandishes his bow, and lines up 120' from the starting line.

Salina rides her mount back to the game area, unslinging her already strung bow she gently guides her clawfoot so that she sits next to the groom, nudging the dinosaur so it is a little too close to the groom's horse.

OOC: Hoping that maybe the clawfoot will frighten the horse a little.

OOC: Composite Longbow actually, and they can be used while mounted. Read SRD here. He'll be using that. Can we take 10? Neither distracted nor in combat for this, so by SRD we can but just checking. Also, what's the goal of this contest again? To hit the target or is it part race, part target shooting?

You are correct, you get to use your longbow.

It is a race to the finishline, along the route are "checkpoints". At each checkpoint is a target. You can't move on till you hit the target. Of course, if you are able to hit the target before you reach the checkpoint then you do not have to stop.
