(LHHS) The Light Hearted Hack n' Slash Game (II)

[reapersaurus]

[catch up] "Thanksss!"
Brawn takes the potions graciously offered and drinks one, while tucking the other away for now.
If battle is eminent or if no other healing presents itself in a day or so, he may use the 2nd potion if his wounds are hurting him enough.

Brawn says to Mak's compliment "Thank you - there are bigger vermin where I come from, but those were pretty nassty."

Along the way, Brawn reveals to you all that he's not really a Lizardman (tho he plays one on TV ).
He just acts like one because nobody's heard of a Saurial - he's one of the first of his kind to venture from their Homeland.

So he'll drop his badly-done, cheezy Lizard-man hiss (most of the time) when around you guys.

In the rain, Brawn would have helped the horses to pull the cart if necessary.

In the forest, he would have walked on all fours to get low as he can when needed (though he usually walks on 2 legs, he can walk on all four if necessary or if hauling something).

With the spiders, he would have tried to communicate with the spiders using Scents. [/caught up]

When approached by the blink dog, Brawn acts like a young child, wanting to get close and pet the creature - he's never seen one, and is quite naive about its powers and the world in general.
"Awww.... watchu eaten, boy?"
Brawn communicates sereneness and comforting smells thru the air while trying to pet the blink dog and Scent what it ate.

 

[Kalanyr]

Khelon will look at the dog and nod his head at the creature.

 

[Creamsteak]

Macbrea (Yorick) can you post your reaction to the animal for me?

 

[Macbrea]

OOC: oops, sorry missed that last line.

Yorick stares at the friendly dog and decided it wouldn't taste very good. He bends down and pets it on the head, reaches into his pack, pulling out a piece of meat, feeds it to the dog, and starts walking further down the path.

 

[Creamsteak]

In return, the dog fetches Yorick a small stuffed animal. It looks like a monkies head with arms and legs. Then the dog runs off, and for the next hour or so you travel under the watchful eye of a pack of Blink dogs, until you leave their territory (3 hours travel).

(9) (Friendly Encounter)

As your journey continues, and the pack seems to casually travel within a thousand feet of the party or so (sometimes in front, sometimes getting off track to accomplish something you know nothing about) you come upon a large man in the midst of a clearing. It is a large bear-sized upright furry-bird thing at your best guess. One of the dogs (the original one) growls at it as the creature sort of squaks and growls at the same time. The thing seems to be very... strange. It has a beak, and a second face in the stomach area. The mouth in the stomach speaks... "Nutrisare?" which is apparently some kind of unfamiliar dialect to any of you. The thing is quite ugly, and walks into the middle of the road. It appears to motion threateningly.

So, I'll need the groups reaction to the fugly bird-bear with an extra mouth across the gut...

 

[Darkwolf]

Khala, not wanting to instigate it but also not wanting to stand around doing nothing readies a magic missile should it charge.

 

[Macbrea]

Yorick looks very confused. He looks about at his companions to decide what to do. He delays a second to see if anyone else is going to do anything first.

 

[Kalanyr]

Khelon delays to see what is going on.

 

[reapersaurus]

Brawn says "Greetings!" in his high-pitched Saurial language, and you all catch a whiff that smells like honeysuckle and ham.
(

OOC: tenderness and nervousness or worry

)

He raises his arm and waves friendily.

 

[Creamsteak]

The creature squaks again at the group, and the stomach yells something that none of you can make out, but it sounds like it is trying to intimidate you. Some of you (Krindor, Khala) can judge that it isn't sure whether it should run away, or charge the group.

About 1 second after you make that judgement, it charges at Brawn who is waving his hands passively at the thing. It is at this moment that something loud goes boom in the surroundings, and then the thing turns around and runs into the wilderness.
