[Pathfinder] mazzoli's Kingmaker IC

OOC: Axios has not been online in over a week. As he has only been a member since December, I think we might be justified in exercise the discretion to have Scotley resolve his turn as well. After all, his likely next move is fairly straightforward: Grayson moves into position and attacks.

OOC: I had reached the same conclusion. Expect a post this afternoon. If we don't hear from Axios or Holy Man by Monday I say we cut them loose.

Grayson steps up and with one stroke cuts down the final bandit. The yard is strangely quiet after the sudden brief burst of violence. Only the nervous sounds of the horses of the fallen bandits disturbs the calm. From her vantage on the roof top Kyria can see no one else beyond the walls of the trading post.
 

"Looks like we earned ourselves a wagon and horses. If someone would help me pile the bodies to some barren earth outside, I'd be more than happy to burn them to ashes. Anyone want to search them first?" Rhote asks his question as he toes the nearest corpse.
 

Pixie stands there impassively for a few moments, surveying the carnage she was party to, and then looking down at the still burning Happs. "What kind of life you musta lead," she says slowly, "Where'd you even consider burnin' before looting." It appears to be a rhetorical statement.

The ex-bandit goes to stamp out the flames engulfing the body of Happs, then gets to the familiar task of stripping the bodies of whatever valuables they possess: weapons, armour, treasure; all of it. She tosses in into a pile in the middle of the bloody scene of battle. If any help is offered, she looks briefly at who inquires but continues on silently.
 

Kyria nimbly jumps down from the roof onto some stacked barrels, and from there to the ground.

"We're clear outside. They didn't post lookouts or sentries that I saw."

She starts searching whoever Pixie's not currently engaged with, face set in a stoic mask.
 

Prince Liam holds aloft his sword in triumph as the last foe falls. "Behold my companions, for this is how all lawless foes will fall before our combined might!"
He sheathes his longsword and moves his charger forward to collect the scattered and nervous bandit mounts. Each one he recaptures he ties to a post until they begin to calm down again. He starts to look them over for saddlebags or anything else they might be carrying of interest.
 

Among Happ's gear are two flasks of alchemist's fire, leather armor, dagger, composite longbow (+2 Str) with 20 arrows and 35 gold pieces in a pouch. He has a silver amulet in the form of a powerfully built humanoid with the head of stag worth perhaps 20 gp.

The other bandits are similarly equipped with leather armor, longbows with 20 arrows, short swords and an average of 10 gp each in assorted coins.

The horses are of only fair quality light horses and do not appear to be trained for war. They are equipped with mismatched saddles and tack. In the saddle bags your find a total of 8 days worth of trail rations, a skin of cheap wine and a couple of blankets.
 

Pixie raises a hand to her silver fairy amulet and grasps it tightly as she lifts Happs' silver stag amulet from his blackened neck. She stands up and turns to Liam, tossing it to him. "That is the symbol of the Stag Lord," she says. "Those he has entrusted with authority are supposed to carry them. And since you figure on being the new authority in these parts, maybe you should hang on to it until you find some better use for 'em."
