[QUOTE="Tellerian Hawke, post: 7808656, member: 6790669"] [spoiler=Map of the vicinity] [ATTACH type="full" alt="13D39FEA-C1EB-4A24-ADDB-0BC4178F686A.jpeg"]113994[/ATTACH] [/spoiler] [gm] The Kobolds disappear into the copse of trees just south of Cave #1. Apparently, their "trap," whatever it is, is there. Hawke points to a narrow gap (indicated by the red arrows) where the party can cross from their wooded area to that of the Kobolds', while risking minimal exposure. The party agrees, and crosses at that point. As you cross the gap, you can hear screechy, Draconic-speaking Kobold voices ahead, talking to each other about their trap. The party has a +5 bonus to their stealth rolls (hide and move) because the Kobolds are distracted. [B]Sphynx:[/B] Hide 21 (+5= 26), Move 19 (+5= 24) [B]Nimbar:[/B] Hide 22 (+5= 27), Move 27 (+5= 32) [B]Hawke:[/B] Hide 11 (+5= 16), Move 7 (+5= 12) Chance for nearby Humanoids as you cross the gap = 1 in 1d6. Roll = 5 (Success! No one nearby!) Nearest 2 Kobolds Listen & Spot: Listen: 18,12 (Both hear something) Spot: 20,13 (One of them sees Hawke!) The other 6 Kobolds are too far away to hear or see the party. Thus, 2 Kobolds will roll initiative, the other 6 will be surprised. [/gm] The Kobolds aren't setting a mechanical trap, they are busy putting spikes into trees, so that they can perch in them, and leap down on unsuspecting victims from above. As the party gets close enough to see this, Hawke unwittingly steps on a crunchy leaf, giving away his position. Nimbar curses as he hears the following words in Draconic: [B]Kobold #1:[/B][COLOR=red] "Hey, look, there's someone over there!"[/COLOR] [gm] It is now time for initiative. There are 8 Kobolds within easy melee range, but only 2 of them are alert enough to act in the surprise round. Sphynx: (27) Nimbar: (20) Hawke: (14) Kobold #2: (8) Kobold #1: (4) [/gm] [/QUOTE]
