The Four Lands - Southern Operatives

[Scotley]

Alban

Alban has his horse seen to including new shoes, then has some mending of his own equipment done including having a fine edge placed on his axe. Finally, he draws ten day's iron rations, refills his quiver with javelins, gets a new pair of boots and a fresh healer's bag. With that he seeks his companions. "Well my friends, what do you think our new orders will be?"

What Nijel said. Actually, what he did.

 

[Leif]

Got the message that follows this one. No sweat, man!

[sblock=Leif]Sorry about that - you'd think of all people I'd be the one looking for unusual spellings . Previous post edited![/sblock]

Having secured supplies and seen to their kits the party is soon absorbed with watching the movement of troops and the stiking of tents as various units prepare to leave.

When nijel address the seargeant he is given in reply the statement.."Don't know we just received word to send back all but five days supplies to Castle Ticondarogia..."

The ever obeservant Kat notices that the Lord Marshall is now mounted and going about the camp with just the ensign in tow. He appears to be at the right place at the right time to solve any problems or questions as they arrive as the army prepares to move out..yet something does not seem to be right to her....too many people to close to him....it begins to bother her.

Having stowed all his gear for travel, Aidan notices Kat staring at the Lord Marshall; but mistakes her unease for impatience. "I'm sure there'll be plenty for us to do soon enough. Give him time, he'll have orders for us."

Nijel Bladesong

When nijel address the seargeant he is given in reply the statement.."Don't know we just received word to send back all but five days supplies to Castle Ticondarogia..."

"Hmmm, then I guess the either the Lord Marshall expects the battle to be quickly won, or perhaps there will be found good ground for foraging? The other alternative is that he expects us to all be dead within the week, and I'll not meet death lying down, I can tell you! Or, think you that there is another reason for this order?"

Ewan Driscoll, HP 67 / 67 AC 16

Ewan draws new blanks and heads for his arrows as well as several days trail rations while the farriers see to his horse's shoes. As he stows the materials in his pack, he watches the activity as the camp prepares to move out.

Katherine Brightlaw

Having stowed all his gear for travel, Aidan notices Kat staring at the Lord Marshall; but mistakes her unease for impatience. "I'm sure there'll be plenty for us to do soon enough. Give him time, he'll have orders for us."

"No, Aidan, that's not it. This inaction does make me fret, but there's something wrong . . . too many people around the Lord Marshall, and only one of them belongs there. I'd better check it out. Keep an eye on me, but don't follow too close. And try not to stare at my backside; you'll get me noticed for certain sure! If you can let the rest of the group know what's happening without losing me, that would be an excellent idea as well."

With a wink at her friend, she makes her way closer to the Lord Marshall and his unusual entourage, insinuating herself deftly into the mix of people surrounding him.

[sblock=OOC/JA]The intention is to use the 'Hide' skill to insert herself into the crowd following the L.M. without being noticed. Her suspicion is that there's an assassination attempt in progress; the 'Gather Information' skill check should clarify the situation for her, though.

Hide: 1d20+12=29
Gather Information: 1d20+10=20[/sblock]

For Katherin
[sblock]inserting yourself successfully...you realize that most of the men moving ina very lose circle around the lord marshall are overly large and brutish looking.with something just a little odd about their features..for the most part the are silent[/sblock]

For Pyrex
[sblock]as your walking with the party and kat makes her comment you feel a prickle on your skin as if ants are crawling on you..from your experience you know it is sometype of aracne energy but you cant pin point where it is coming from[/sblock]
