Chapter 2 - Moonwood Forest
The rest of the early morning passes with nothing exciting happening. The snow finally stops falling form the sky and you can see the land is covered in snow that is about 2' deep. You can barely make out the spot where the sun is rising through the clouds and you figure you might as well wake everyone up and get a move on as you still have several days worth of travel to go.

Durnn, Earth Genasi Fighter 1
"Well, looks like we made it through the night... with not one of us being transformed into werewolves" Durnn anounces with a grin. He then goes through his backpack to make sure Kor hasn't... shall we say... "liberated" any of his possessions. He rolls up his bedroll, re-stows the rest of his gear, and looks over to the rest of the group. "Ready to continue on?"

Mindal Human Scout
Mindal crawls out of the tent groaning and cursing under his breath. He doesn't address anyone with more than monosyllabic grunts until he has some strong tea made over the coals of the fire. Maybe sleeping in my armor wasn't such a good idea. He checks his gear and packs up his bed roll. Once the tents are down, he helps ready the pack animal and his mount. I wonder if the weather is going to improve, at least it isn't snowing. As the tea starts to kick in Mindal begins to perk up a bit. Between bites of breakfast he admonishes the others. "Alright folks, let's get moving. I've seen women and children make better time herding pregnant sheep...uphill...in worse weather than this. Today we are going to cover some ground so get a hearty breakfast and put some padding under your saddle sores. It ain't getting any warmer, that fire opal won't stay hidden forever and Hrodel's father will only smell worse the longer we wait." Soon he is mounted and eager to get moving. A large mug of warm tea is held carefully in a gloved hand.
OOC: Mindal dares to try and predict the weather once more.

Chapter 2 - Moonwood Forest - Combat
You notice a little black cloud hovering over your head and it seems to be following you, you are pretty sure this is how weather reacts to people sometimes - Survival=7.
While everyone is finishing their meals and packing the supplies from the night before from behind you hear a squeaking little voice, "I see you were right Kahn," speaking to one of the rats, "food has entered our forest. Stupid humans should know not to be in our forest and now they will pay for their crimes. Kill them all we will feast well this morning." Stepping out of the forest you see 4 large rats larger then most dogs break from the cover of the forest their snouts open and the razor sharp teeth glinting in the sun light. Standing hunched over behind them is another rat dressed in some kind of leather outfit with a black cape that seems to be standing on its hind legs, tail swishing back and forth in the air as it loads its crossbow and prepares to fire. You have to assume the voice you heard came from their creature.

Kor=23
Sten=14
Durnn=14
Mindal=9
Pemberton=9
Brenden=4
Dire Rat=6
WereRat=6

Round #1:
Durnn's eyes light up as the rats approach the campsite. "Ah, finally! Something to hit!" Durnn snaps his leather-clad fingers, and from seemingly out of nowhere a greataxe appears in his hands. Spying the closest rat, he closes for the attack and swings the axe with both his hands.
OOC: Durnn calls his greataxe from his glove of storing (free action), moves to square 1113 (move action), and attacks Dire Rat #1 (standard action).
Attack 1d20+6 = 16
Damage 1d12+7 = 18.

2) Koraero drops his bow in 0609.
3) Koraero moves to 1013.

Mindal drops his tea to the ground with an angry curse and pulls his bow along with a silver tipped arrow. He
shoots (1d20+4=20) the wearat. The silver arrow does its work. 1d6=4
