[-11 VP] What at first she took to be a long submerged tree branch begins to twist and wrap serpentine coils about her.  Stumbling, she falls backward into the water just in time to escape the curling, constricting embrace.  Soaked through and gasping as the burning sensation spreading through her wounded leg, she regains her balance and stands to face a watersnake, its tongue flickering and its large diamond-shaped head raised only a few centimeters above the water.Ok. The surprise round is over.Wading through the water reduces your movement by 1/3rd (6m/turn), and you cannot charge or run in it.  Sia-Lan is in the middle of the river, 18m away from the shore.  The snake is adjacent to Sia-Lan with Sia-Lan between it and everyone else (20m from shore).  Set and Arani are 12m away from the shore, and 6m from Sia-Lan.  Kelko is at the shoreline, 18m away from Sia-Lan.  The rest of you are just inside the edge of the forest, 10m from the shore, and 28m from Sia-Lan.Don't worry about initiative too much.  Post your combat actions.</blockquote>
