[QUOTE="Tecklenburg, post: 6751700, member: 6781356"] This is a tough one. It is very enticing to head for the Stone Lands. If I can lead them into a Basilisk ambush, petrification en masse may be just what the doctor ordered! Or the Stone Giants can rain boulders from the heavens down upon them. What if the mists follow the mutates chasing us into the Stone Lands? Then I've basically sentenced the Stone Giants therein to a fate worse than death. But it would buy some time for Giliad's Rest to prepare for the siege and maybe begin an exodus if need be. Also, the Stone Giants surely lair high up in caves on stoney faces. They would be able to see it coming. And who is to say that the mists aren't going here, there, to that mysterious forest, and everywhere else anyway? We go north from the barrier forest, high-tailing it to the Stone Lands. In our dash to stay ahead of the horde chasing us, I'm looking for signs of a Basilisk lair. Perhaps there are shards of chewed stone scattered here and there where petrified prey have been consumed? Stoney scat? Half-eaten petrified statues? Giant lizard tracks? [sblock]Secondary Skill Athletics + 18 b[2d20]. 7, 14. Either gives me the Easy DC. Primary Skill Nature + 19 + 2 (SS) = 21. Rolled 6. 27 passes the Medium DC.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
