[QUOTE="Kobold Stew, post: 7545050, member: 23484"] Miss Imogen has many things swirling through her head, and it seems like a week passes before she can move. First, is the pain. The dead pterafolk warrior in front of her -- such a massive creature, and yet capable of flight, with a wingspan larger than any bird she has ever seen -- has hurt her, and she regrets for a moment not wearing her leather jerkin this morning. She had thought she would be safer somehow without it. Second, is the captures. The loss of two party members so swiftly is disorienting. In one direction, Qawasha, but he is familiar with the jungle and its dangers. The cartographer was not, and Miss Imogen blamed herself for letting her be taken. What to do? Both were too high and might not survive a fall. She saw that, and while she trusted her arrows, she did not trust herself to preserve her companion's life. So she ran. As fast as she could. Chasing the creature that was carrying Tarri, hoping that eventually it would set down, or at least be closer to the ground, while still in range. She knew she could shoot far with a bow, but the secret was staying in sight. And as she ran, she found herself gliding between the trees. Literally gliding, each push of her feet causing her to slide along a frozen surface that she was forming beneath her feat as she ran. Frozen footsteps. In and out between the trees she ran, pursuing the pterafolk with Tarri in its claws. Bow in hand, looking for an opportunity to strike. [ooc]I think she doesn't have the strength to grab the one carrying Qawasha, and her jump isn't super impressive, so this seems the best approach: Between Move and Action (Dash) and Bonus (Cast expeditious retreat), she will have 90' of movement (45 if difficult terrain, which should be enough to keep up. I'm not sure exactly where she is right now (in post 1271 the text puts her at U16, the map at V30), but wherever she is, she'll pursue aggressively (for as far as she needs to, in hopes that she can keep up and somehow find a means to rescue the cartographer. If someone else shoots down the pterafolk, she will put herself under its falling body if it can mitigate damage to Tarri.[/ooc] [/QUOTE]
