[GRIM TALES] Warhammer 'Chronicles of the Witch Hunter'

"What another fight?" says Grimmor, as the group draws their arms. He hefts his axe up. "This time there'll be blood yes?" snickers the 'Knight'.

Three Feathers, Coach-Inn, May 113th, midday

Outside the Coach-Inn (update from last round)

Seif nods and starts into the tree line, moving as quickly as he can, with Johannes about 10 feet behind him, pistol at the ready. About 15 feet in, he hears the growling a bit louder and deep in the throat – like a warning. He can now make out two large brown hunting cats of some kind. They are smaller then the plains lions that he had seen in his homeland, but still big enough to weigh as much as a fully grown man. They were fighting over the body of a young man or woman that is laying there, dragging it deeper into the forest. Both have stopped now and looking at Seif, their eyes reflecting what little light there is in the shadows of the trees.

From behind him, Johannes also can make them out (at present they have concealment bonus of from the leaves and brush around them), but he can see both are clearly hungry and not to happy by your presences

Spot 14+1=15, Listen 12+1=13, Johannes Spot roll 12+10=22

(Continuing this round)

Initiative: Cats 14, Seif 12+2= 14, Johannes 12+0 =12

The cats both seem hesitant to charge the south-man, but they are not backing up, in fact both take a step or two closer, and then hunch down, the hairs on the shoulders standing almost straight up. Angry growls are coming from both of their throats…


Inside the Coach-Inn

As Gunther steps into the kitchen (followed by Rat with an arrow drawn), points a pistol at the pair and speaks up the fat innkeeper screams – not unlike a woman – and raises his hands “Oh please don’t kill me! I didn’t have nothing to do with it – it was Marcus and Dieter, they did it, they wanted the woman – not me, PLEASE! ” he begs in a loud winy voice

The fat Halfling holds up his hands and smiles stupidly and takes a step back towards the door (you can fire if you wish to, he should be flat-footed) and says “Oi now govners’ I jost the stable’boy an’ all, I’se a no’bod’ an’ dats be the gods’ honest toth it is.

Grimmor starts up the stairs with the Witch-Hunter behind him, and both pistols drawn.
Listen check for both, Grimmor 10+0=10, Witch-Hunter something but he remains quite (Grimmor will be at the top next round)

I don't trust that halfling, Gunther thinks. Raising the pistol, he aims carefully and squeezes of a shot, aiming at the door that he was inching towards.

"I said don't move, runtling!"

OOC:

Attack roll: Gunther rolls 1d20+3, getting [8,3] = (11)

"What's going on here? Who do we need to chop up?" grumbles Grimmor.

As they start walking up the stairs (before the shot) he says in a low voice "Not sure yet, but someting stinks in this place and it an't yer breath...now lets get upstairs and find out"

Seif-al-Din (Sword of the faith)

*Seif, his rage building at being lied to tries to determine if the body is still alive*.

*If their is a chance the body still lives he will shout for Johanes to take the more distant of the two cats with his pistol, and he will rage and charge the other*.

*If the body is obviously dead, he will begin to back away*. No use causing trouble without backup, and that bow would be useful against these animals.

*If it is unsure, whe will hold action to see what the cats are going to do, while hollaring for aid from the Inn*.
 


Three Feathers Inn, May 13th, midday

Outside the Coach-Inn (update from last round)

Seif sees that the body is obviously dead and slowly starts to back up. One of the cats seems to calm a bit but the other takes another step forward and hisses a growl of some kind… JUST as the shot goes off inside the Coach Inn!
One cat darts back into cover while the other seems to panic and leaps at the southern warrior!
The cats claw bites deep into Seif's right thigh, but his armor saves the muscles and let from serious hard, and the great tulwar slashes into the creature, cutting it deeply

Johannes does not have a good shot at the cat as it is behind Seif and there was that shot from the Coach-Inn

Initiative: Cats 14, Seif 12+2= 14, Johannes 12+0 =12
The cat charged, both Seif and the Cat attack at the same time. Attack roll for the cat, 19 a hit; Damage is 7 (-2DR) for 5 points of damage. Attack roll for Seif is 19+8=27 hit, DO you wish to spend a Action Point to Crit? if not Damage is 1d10+5=11 points of damage



Inside the Coach-Inn

Gunther's shot slams into the doorframe next to the Halfling and he seems very scared but then the arrow that flies start at him a half a second later is aimed right at his chest, and yet somehow he twists out of the way and disappears out the door!!! The Innkeeper cries out "Mercy!!!" and falls to the ground to cover his head with his hands!

Grimmor and Hammer at just reacting the top of the stairs when they hear the gunshot downstairs, causing them to hesitant for a second. Then Grimmor hears a low voice from around a corner "They be coming up the stairs now, get that fuss light ye clumsy bugger!" and another ones says "Got it!"

Initiative Gunther 12*, Rat 9*, Fat-Man 16, Halfling 10, Grimmor 12, Witch-Hunter 19
*they are flat-footed until you react as you 'readied' against them last round, so…
Gunther's shot hits where he wants it to and the Innkeeper looks about ready to faint.
Rat's arrow follows up straight at the Halfling, attack roll 11+5+1 (PB shot)=17 a miss! (he has Uncanny Dodge)
Grimmor Listen check 17+0 =17

Rat

"Damn magic tricks! Just not bloody fair."
Her words about fairness might carry a little more weight if she would not target another arrow at the helpless man at her feet.
"Gunther, keep this piece of dirt right down on his knees. I'll go catch me some halfling."
Seeming a lot more brave now that she has a chance to get outside and do some actual hunting she runs towards the door the halfling went through. At the last moment she throws a smile back at her partner and then vanishes through it.
"If nothin' bloody else we can still eat him."

Grimmor heads towards the voices, his axe raised. If he sees any of those who spoke, he slashes at them with his axe. "An ambush aye? I didna think so!!"
