As the captain ignores her and presents his back to her as a perfect target in order to climb back atop his horse, she stabs her short sword upward into the small of his back, through a chink in his armor. Chemical flames engulf the drow–along with a searing, aching chill, courtesy of the actual wraith–as she removes her blade, dripping in the “Hammer’s” blood. His death is now but moments away.[HR][/HR]Twyll chooses to take this opportunity to continue her attack and deal damage to the captain: rb[3,6] - 3 Armor = 3 Damage to Plinth (1 HP remaining)Damage to Twyll from Alchemist Fire: r4 = 4 Damage + Burning TagDamage to Twyll from the Wraith’s life-stealing touch: r3 = 3 Damage; Total Damage to Twyll = 7 + Burning Tag[HR][/HR]PRITCHARD has no desire to fight the undead. Their task, a grisly one of questionable moral underpinnings, at best, is to take out Neverember’s arrogant, murderous mercenary captain.As the alchemical concoction explodes into flame against the cobbles, Pritchard draws close to Jax, atop his horse, bathed in the lantern’s light.The brand upon his chest burns.“Jax, is it?” he murmurs. “Plinth always treats you so demeaningly, like some cur to be brought to heel, doesn’t he? Makes a man want to strike out, get some revenge, doesn’t it?”[HR][/HR]Pritchard spends his only charge of Burning Brand to Inflame Jax to strike down his captain in violent betrayal–else die in resisting!INFLAMEWhen you unleash your BRAND and incite an individual to violent action (hand, close), you may erase 1 charge to roll +CHA: on a 10+, they must pick 1 from the list below:+ Act as you suggest, without doubt or fear, dealing +1d4 damage while they do so.+ Resist, but suffer painful burns (b[2d4] damage, ignores armor).On a 7-9, they lash out at you but suffer painful burns (b[2d4] damage, ignores armor, wrong-foot).When you Inflame someone and they are killed by your brand or kill one or more living beings as a result, mark 1:OOOOWhen you make the last mark, gain BURNING HATREDr6,3 +1 CHA = 10Jax might choose to resist me, immolating in hellfire–I roll b[4,4] (ignores armor, wrong foot) = 4 HP damage, slaying him outright. Or he may act as I suggest, betraying Plinth, r6 + r3 -3 armor = 6 HP damage, which would kill the captain instead.Either way, I mark 1.  <s>O</s>OOO</blockquote>
