Throrg looks at the ravine and waits to see what everyone is going to do. "What want Throrg do?"

 

[Lughart]

Werit: You can cast as many Orisons per day as you want, so no need to be wastin 1st levels spells if you feel like conserving.

As Tyrien descends into the ravine, the tapping noise gets louder. When she reaches the bottom, it sounds like the footsteps of a hundred people, far beneath the ground. Shar gets uneasy upon noticing the sound, but keeps quiet.

The tracks lead further through the ravine, but 80' from the slopes bottom one pair of bootprints break off from the main group and leads down a hole. The rest of the tracks keep going the same direction as far as you can see.

 

[ghostcat]

Throrg will keep following the others unless someone tells him to do something different.

Tyrien continues to be stealthy at the bottom of the ravine and looks into the hole with the lone boot prints.

She signals the others to go ahead and proceed down into the ravine to catch up. Shar remains close and protective.

[sblock=OOC]Taking 10's on Stealth & Perception: Tyrien=24/21, Shar=21/16. Anything to be learned from the boot prints? Take 10 on Survival (19) if necessary.[/sblock]

Tyrien's Sheet

 

[CanadienneBacon]

Werit finds somewhere to tie up the four lame and one semi-healed horse, grunting as his thick fingers try to work the rope into a knot. "Blast it!" When reasonably assured that the beasts won't amble off while he's away, Werit hoists his waraxe and trundles down into the ravine after the others.

Werit is wearing a magical breastplate and carrying a full complement of metal weaponry. I'm just guessing, but it seems reasonable that he would make a great deal of noise, despite any attempts otherwise.

 

[Lughart]

OOC: I'm assuming everyone follows the group down. If Elerion or Oog wants to remain above they can, since they haven't said anything to the contrary.

Close examination of the tracks let's Tyrien confirm two things. One, the person who entered here went in, but not out. He is either still here, or left by another route. Two, the tracks seem too light for a human. They don't press as deeply into the sand as a grown humanoid would, but are too big to belong to a halfling or gnome.

When the rest of the group descends into the ravine Tyrien hears the tapping noise get louder. Looking down the hole she is standing by, she sees an enormous insect scrambling towards her.

The rest of the group has almost rejoined Tyrien when they too hear the tapping footsteps, quickly getting louder. A few seconds later black hornets the size of big dogs start crawling out of the holes.

Noone failed the perception checks, so noone is surprised, and everyone gets normal turns immediately. Just act in whatever order you like, then I'll recap.

BTW: If your AC seems too low, its because you haven't drawn your shield. I assumed that since Werit drew his axe out of combat, his shield is also at the ready.

 

[GandalfMithrandir]

"Oog will stay and watch" he says, before the hornets come out of the ravine, he will then charge and attack the nearest hornet at F5

attacks to come

EDIT: not sure if I hit it but I probably killed it if I did. you messed with the wrong Half-Orc's buddies!

"I hate insects", Elerion says with a distinct look of distaste on his face. He quickly draws his rapier and readies his shield, ready for the insects to make their move.

[sblock=ooc]Move action: Draw weapon, Standard action: ready shield [/sblock]

 

[ghostcat]

Throrg draws his Greatsword and waits for the hornet to approach him before attacking it. "Here kitty kitty" he bellows to attract its attention. With a mighty whack, Throrg takes a chunk out of the hornet. Much to his surprise it still keeps moving.


[sblock=OOC]Move Action: Draw Weapon.
