The Retrievers - Chapter 2

[Scotley]

(ooc: Again I highly suggest you make your own skill rolls whenver possible as it looks like when I roll them I roll poorly, lets hope I continue to roll like this in combat )

OOC: Indeed you'd think I would have learned by now.

"While I think this storm will break soon, we must consider seeking shelter for now. If we continue to keep this pace in such foul weather we will be in no shape to complete our mission once we get there. Do we charge in weapons drawn or try to parley with the current inhabitants of the cave?"

Koraero Firironna - Sun Elf Rogue 2

"I could take a peek inside." He looks around at the faces of his traveling companions. "You know, quietly."

 

[Erekose13]

"Sounds good to me Korarero" replies Sten, unable to discern the tracks from the mud outside the cave.

 

[Scotley]

Mindal Human Scout

"I would like to know what we are getting into. I will stand ready to back you up if you get into trouble." He looks to the rest of the group as he readies his bow. "Unless someone else objects to this course of action?"

 

[Harvey]

Durnn, Earth Genasi Fighter 1

"Sounds good to me... but be careful, little buddy." Durnn says to Kor. "Don't want to have to pull your fat out of the fire yet again..."

 

[Wilphe]

"Whatever they are, they probably won't be friendly. However I am not amiss to parley with them. Kor has already demonstrated that he is more than capable if he gets into trouble*."

Pemberton moves the horses back up and out of sight, setting Talon to watch the back, then nocks an arrow and takes up a covering position behind a rock, "Odd that they have no sentry; but then again he might be staying out of the storm"

OOC:
*Ha! That's what you get for showboating in your first fight...

Chapter 2 - Cave Entrance

As the group reaches a plan of action Kor set out to scout out what is possibly living in the cave. Pemberton moves close to the ravines drop off to cover Kor and wishes him luck and not to get killed as it would be most inconvenient. Everyone else readies themselves to possibly make a mad dash into the cave to rescue Kor if they here him cry out.

Initiative:
Kor - Goes first as everyone else is holding their actions
Mindal - Init=21
Sten - Init=16
Pemberton - Init=16
Durnn - Init=2

(ooc: Kor I will assume you will want to make your own hide and move silently rolls, unless of course you want me to make them for you. The ravine drop off is any square north of row 07 and the cave entrance is the black splotch. Still looking for a mapping program that has everything I want but as of yet have not found one.)

 

[tyrlaan]

OOC: Judging by your rolling history, absolutely. :-D

Hide: 28 - natural 20!
Move Silently: 27

Okay, that means my dice luck just got all used up.

 

[Erekose13]

Sten moves closer to the cavern entrance ready to back Kor up when necessary. He does so carefully and as quietly as possible (8).

[move to 0812, should be far enough away to make that roll pretty good.]

Chapter 2 - Cave Entrance

As you are watching Kor slowly move up to the entrance he seems to melt into the surrounding terrain until you can not see him anymore. You might find it difficult to cover a man that you can not see but you truest in his abilities and hold your position and not cry out. Sten slowly moves up a little bit more to try and reacquire Kor by site but is never bale to see him again and he decides to stop as he notices that he can hear his movements over the sound of the approaching storm.

Nearing the entrance to the cave Kor peers in as he realizes there is no way he will be able to hear anything over the storm. With the fading light Kor looks into the cave he can barely make out a rough oval shaped cave that is about 10' x 10' x 15' but he sees nothing else in the cave.
