Loske: (Female/Half Elf/Ranger 3)

Loske rest the scimitars and scabbard upon her leg with the handle up and brings her bow to bear. Her other arm pulls an arrow out and notches it. She breathes deeply lines up the “shaman” Gnoll in the process and pulls the bowstring back into the ready position.


[OOC:] BTW The Shaman is the Gnoll armed with the dagger. As soon as the first member makes a break form the tree line she’ll try and drop the shaman. If that member crosses her line of fire she’ll fire at which other gnoll see the party first. If they see us at the same time she’ll try and drop the far one. [/OOC]
 

Solomon Kreel

Solomon will charge with Swift. He will attack the shamen gnoll as well. If this is not practical he will attempt to pick up the young elf.

OOC: Charge attack (+2charge, +3BAB, +5 str +1 masterwork) +11(2d6)+7
 

Jak Ogresticker

Spear in hand, Jak readies himself to launch at one of the gnoll guards, since Loske and Edward seem to be ready to shoot the shaman. Once Swift rushes out, Jak follows at fast as his little legs can carry him, charging the nearest of the two gnoll guards.

shortspear +6att, 1d8+3dmg
 

Only two. But what will the others do, if we disrupt their ritual?

Thinking hard about the possible consequences of attacking watches the scene unfold. The look on his face is clearly distressed and it's clear, that he'd like to do something, but can't quite gather the courage necessary.

(Ready an action to wait for someone else to leave cover)

Rushing after the others Jobis pulls one of his daggers out of its hidden sheath with a fluid motion and hurls it at the unsuspecting gnoll shaman.

(Readied action goes off, move 30' and attack (+6, dmg 1d6 + 2d6 sneak attack)
 

Cale sees the knife raise and instantly his crossbow is leveled. He aims for the gnoll's heart (ooc: sneak attack here if he's still flat-footed when I get this shot off) and fires.
 

swift bursts from the bushes with brilliant speed and loittle noise, only one of the gnoll drummers manages to notice him before he is passed by a bolt that strikes the gnoll shaman in the back. the gnoll rears to his full height and a bare murmur passes his lips.

swift reaches the gnoll, still clinging to his life and grasping the knife and his hands move like lightning, riddling the gnolls soft fur and bony back with punches.

the shaman finally falls as a dagger strikes his back from the undergrowth.

jak storms out and rushes the nearest gnoll drum player. the gnoll attempts to use the drum as a shield, but it is too late, he is struckk deeply and falls to the ground twitching and whining in contorted pain.

solomaon sweeps the young elf into his arms. the boy is light, and nearly starved. his eyes roll back in his head showing his obviusly drugged state.

kelkan, with the best intentions but slow reflexes is left with only one opponent, and he fells the last gnoll guard with an eldritch burst.

the new silence of the woods rests heavily on you as the bodies finish their death throws.

you are standing on a short outcropping of volcanic rock.

to your right, the volcano rises swiftly, to your left some slim woodland then the sea, behind you is a huge gnoll encampment and ahead is what seems to eb endless woods.
 

Swift (Male Elf Monk)

"Serves the wretched creatures right, they should know not to deal with greater beings." Swift says as he recomposes himself. "Will someone see to the boy? We cannot afford to spend much time here."


OOC: Wow, this is my 300th post! Yipee!

Loske: (Female/Half Elf/Ranger 3)

Loske looks at the boy in Solomon’s gigantic arms, “Well I don’t think they would drug him to a state of death… Just seems strange to go that far only to kill him in ritual with a dagger.” See goes over to the boy anyways to give him a quick look over… While she’s looking the boy over she suggest, “Hey someone look at the Gnolls’ bodies, especially the Shaman’s, they might have needed equipment.”

OOC: : If he isn’t going to die traveling I would suggest moving along. If not I use my healing herbs and healing skill to fix him up. Healing +10 Skill level: 6 + WIS: 2 + Healers Kit
 

SOlomon Kreel

Solomon puts the boy down so that Loske can look at him. He returns for his precious box, and sheaths his greatsword. "I can carry the boy, as well as the box." he growls, gazing about.
