Re: Chapter 2: Unrest in Bryn Shander
Four thugs begin to stream into the warehouse, urged on by a fifth voice heard somewhere outside of view.
"Get in there boys, fond what we're after, and quick!" the gruff and vaguely unhuman voice calls out.
At that moment, a flame-like radiance descends on the first individual to enter the door. The man cries out in alarm, but he is more startled than injured from the spell.
Moments later, Morgrim calls on dormant sedge and lichen to burst through the snowy ground. The plants' grasping roots snake around the four men, effectively entangling half of them, while the others breaks free of the grasping roots.
There is a lot of shouting and panicking as the four men stumble into the ambush, wide eyes searching the darkness for the source of their attackers. Eventually, one of the men in the threshold makes out Dalgura and perhaps Morgrim, but definitely the cleric.
"Boss!" one of the un-entangled thugs calls out, "they be spell-slingers in heres!"
"Then eliminate them!" the gruff voice calls out. None of the adventurers can presently see the source of this voice, as it is coming from somewhere outside of view in the adjoining alley.
Algonell and Byron fire a volley of arrows at the thugs, one of which strikes its target.
"We gotta get out of here!" one of the entangled thugs calls out.
Things are not starting out so well for the would-be silver weapon snatchers. What they hoped would be a smash and grab operation just became a little more complicated with the entrance of pesky do-gooders.
OOC: Two thugs are entangled, as indicated below. I applied the sacred flame damage to the one Ellie hit with the eldritch blast. The hex went on the other unentangled thug.
