[sblock=Nature and Perception: Nope]Derien's a city boy, elfy goodness or no.[/sblock]Derien follows the strange fey's conversation with Haruka with half an ear; his attention is reserved for something just off the path, shrouded by trees. Finally he interjects: "And who is that?" he asks, pointing to a small, bound figure just off the path.

"Splendid" the humanoid says when Ikni reples, his hands clapping excitedly.

Turning to Derien, "Ah, do not fret yourself with my entertainment. He is my bard, I have hired him to play for my amusement when I grow weary of playing my own pipe" the creature replies.

[sblock=Ikni]
You got a 20 arcana and 17 nature.

“Looksee!” comes a high-pitched voice from where Derien points.

Wiggling back and forth with his tied up legs, Rhole groans miserably just loud enough for all of the wanderers to hear. The group catches glimpses of a small creature on the outskirts, dominated by tufts of hair and a strange string-instrument popping up over the bushes. Some even smaller stone creatures seems to be nested in its hair.

“He told me I couldn’t run, but not that I couldn’t play,” comes a muttering voice from the half-hidden musician, supposedly directed to himself but obviously loud enough for all to hear.

“I sure hope that Piggy doesn’t eat me, because that would be rude in front of the new guests.”

Rhole sticks out his tongue at the boar and strikes a chord, sending strange tones of mystically amplified sounds out from his position.

Hear now the tale of brave Sir Goat-Face.
Noble Sir Goat-Face!
Splendid Sir Goat-Face!
Hear now the tale of brave Sir Goat-Face, an honourable man of his word!

He hired a star, oh brave Sir Goat-Face.
Good taste, Sir Goat-Face!
Well done, Sir Goat-Face!
He hired a star, oh brave Sir Goat-Face, the finest tunes he ever heard!

How did you repay the legend, Sir Goat-Face?
What’s that, Sir Goat-Face?
Poor taste, Sir Goat-Face!
How did you repay the legend, Sir Goat-Face? By forcing him into your herd!


After the none-too-subtle serenade that expresses how he feels about the satyr, Rhole jams into another song that seems eerily fitting to his current predicament.

Haruka stares aghast at the gnome for a few moments before managing to bring her attention back to the matter at hand. "Besides for pulling our punches, are there any other rules of engagement we should be aware of? I'd hate to offend your customs, whatever they may be."
 

The humanoid shouts "You shut up, I grow weary of your attitude!" as he gives a signal to his companions.

Ironheart was ready and reacts before they can move.

Ikni glares at the satyr. "You call for a fair fight, but your hireling leads off with a sonic assault from hiding? Is this what you call sport?"
 



[sblock=OOC]
Oops, new there was a thread I missed updating today.

Ironheart shudders as the wave of sound hits him. "THAT is a crime against nature," he mutters. "But YOU have imprisoned a creature of the Feywild against its will. For this you must be punished!"

With huge strides that eat up the ground, the tree closes in on the Satyr's creatures. He plants himself solidly in front of them and a wave of disturbed earth rolls out from his roots, causing leaves and bushes to shiver. "I will not PERMANENTLY hurt you, or these noble beasts," he intones, "But you must leave this place. It is under my protection now." He backs up his threat by swinging his axe overhand to come down in a huge arc on the satyr's head, aiming to hit it not with the blade but the pole. The earth convulses where the axe-head strikes it, forcing massive thorns up out of the ground.

[sblock=Actions]
All damage for this fight is non-lethal.

Move: move to E14
Free: Mark the boar and unicorn with Nature's Wrath
Standard: attack the Satyr with Earth Spikes: Earth Spikes vs Satyr (1d20+7=18, 1d10+5=10) If that hits, until end of Ironheart's next turn, any creature that enters or starts its turn in E16 or an adjacent square takes 5 damage from the spikes

If the boar or unicorn attack anyone, he'll use Warden's Grasp to slide them towards him, trying to keep them adjacent to him.

The halberd finds its mark and the satyr falls back a step as the weapon smacks him in the head, then jumps up as the spikes pierce even his hooves.

The unicorn and boar also feel the throny pain. The unicorn touches Ironheart with her horn, he feels instantly friendly towards her and will go out of his way to keep her safe. The unicorn then steps into the woods to use them as cover.

The boar throws his head forward and tears a hole in Ironheart, causing som damage to the Wood Woad. He also steps off the path.

The satyr puts the pipes to his lips and plays a tune, a soothing melody carrying the sounds of the forest on it. Ironheart feels the music in his soul and he can't quite concentrate with it affecting him. After playing his tune the satyr runs away from the warden and ducks behind a rock.
