Logic dictated the Renee would serve the clattering obvious one. Her stealth capability hardly a blip.

Stealth is 13. Near to support Ursion.



22:36, Today: Renee Esca rolled 13 using 1d20+2 with rolls of 11.  Stealth

I need specific distances. From the closest sentry, how far do you want to position yourself. That distance becomes a bonus to your stealth check at +1 per 10 feet.

If you don't want to make a stealth check you're going to be 250ft away which means you're going to miss most of the combat.

With the help from Falco, they both are able to figure out the markers the bandits had laid for their traps.  It was an easy switcheroo and hopefully, the bandits would fall into their own traps.

So for the first one, they will place the stones at K14/15, and for the other one, if the stones were on the left side of the wagon, they will place them on the right side.

Once the stones have been moved Tosk will have Falco move to the ambush site of A3 behind the shrubs.  Tosk will then move to G12 and cast his divine favor purposefully make a slight sound but have his bow at the ready and shoot if someone spots him and starts to come for him.  Once they make their move he will pause until they get to the M line and then begin to fall back to the E line and then head west towards the wagon making sure to pass by the markers he put down.  He will head to the D line till he gets to the D-3 and head north keeping the trap to his right barely.

Readied action to shoot-
23:07, Today: Tosk rolled 13,11 using d20+5,2d6+1 with rolls of 8,4,6.

Radgonda was not much better at stealth then Ursion, in fact she was just as bad. "We cannot stay more then fifty feet behind those two." She said to him, as she gave them some space and then began following Erlin.


21:57, Today: Radgonda Lebeda rolled 16 using 1d20-3 with rolls of 19.  Stealth.

Tosk and Falco approach the camp when the others are in position and ready their shot. Just as they are about to spring into action there is a large snapping as a tree branch got caught on Ursion's armor. It holds him up just enough to cause him to fall and the weight causes the branch to snap loudly. Everyone freezes: the bandits...the adventurers. From within the bandit camp calls start echoing about.

"Do you see anyone?"

"I heard it from the South!"

"I see something to the North!

The bandit leader's voice shouts over all of them.

"Hold! Let them come to us!"

There is a brief moment as everyone is still waiting for the other side to react.

You have initiative. I've placed you as best as I could given what I know and what happened...I will get combat tracker going shortly.

Tosk cursed their luck as once more the noise from Ursion had alerted the bandits.  Since he was in position, Tosk took aim with a perfect shot at the bandit(Q9).  The arrow flew directly towards the bandit hopefully it was enough to bring some of their number towards them.  Aloud he said in orcish, [Language unknown: "Stihouthu to evewi e ha werti eau astareany ourev!"]

07:34, Today: Tosk rolled 14,8,10 using d20+5,d20+5,2d6+1 with rolls of 9,3,5,4. using perfect strike So hit AC14 for 10 damage on hopefully a flatfooted target.

Once it was clear that the camp had been alerted Ursion abandoned any pretense of stealth. He gave one last look back at Renee before he raised his shield and charged, crunching and crashing through the low vegetation as he went.

He was really no slower than he had been before despite the bulk, but he was louder by far, and every step seemed to sink a few inches into the loamy soil.

Double Move to AD6

Combat Round 2

Radgonda move forward and fires her bow at one of the bandits.

[OOC: Move to AG9.
Fire bow at bandit at Z9.

22:53, Today: Radgonda Lebeda rolled 14,4 using 1d20+3,1d8 with rolls of 11,4.  Longbow Attack.
Hits AC: 14
Damage: 4]

Likewise, Erlin moved alongside the paladin, and fired her bow at the same bandit.

(OOC: move to AG10, Fire bow at bandit at Z9: 23:42, Today: Erlin Bjorksdottir rolled 6 using 1d20+4 ((2)).)

She cursed to herself as she missed by a mile.

Ursion continued his assault, and wound up next to the one of the trees closer to the camp.

He collided hard with the bandit on the fringe of the defensive line and began beating the man savagely.

Move to AA9
Attack Bandit there.

Renee will move to 'guard' Radgonda's back...



Move to AH9

Tosk takes another horrible shot at the bandit missing by a longshot.  By now, Tosk is hoping that maybe they might be thinking that there are other people taking shots at them which is why none have advanced.

14:02, Today: Tosk rolled 6,7 using d20+5,2d6+1 with rolls of 1,3,3.

Tosk fires an arrow and kills one of the bandits with a shot to the chest.

Ursion charges into camp.

Radgonda moves up and wings a bandit with an arrow.

Erlin moves up and misses.

Renee moves up.

Falco fires a shot and wings a bandit.

---

The bandits whirl around in confusion but with Ursion charging into camp their boss makes a decision.

"Charge! Get them!

And with that half the camp charges north while the other half charges south. One of the bandits misses the markings and falls into the pit trap and Tosk hears a crunch of bones. Whether the bandits was dead or not, he was likely out of the fight. The others, however, were not and were fast approaching. Four bandits charge down on Tosk and Falco, ending up mostly around the halfling and his wolf.

In the south bandits move up to engage Radgonda and Erlin while three, including the bandit leader, engage Ursion. Ursion ends up taking two hits, one from a bandit and a powerful chop from the leader's axe.
Ursion takes 10 damage from their attacks.

Up in the trees two bandits fire down at Tosk and Falco. One misses Tosk but the other pegs the halfling with an arrow.
Falco takes 2 damage

"Lamashtu's inky black quim..."

Erlni cursed to herself as she saw too many bandits rush up towards them; she had to even the odds, and quickly.  She stepped back, and quickly began to cast a spell.

Gå och lägg dig!

(OOC: 5 foot step to AH10, cast sleep on bandit at AF9; hopefully the 10 radius will get a couple of his friends)

Tosk heard the crunching sound from the fallen bandit and knew for certain he was probably out of the combat.  Deciding to move and then shoot was his next action. "Fall back Falco!!"  He said to his companion, and then to the bandits.  "Come get me!"  Tosk then moved to H16 and tried to steady a shot at one of the bandits.  Unfortunately, the shot just barely missed its target.

Move to H16
10:35, Today: Tosk rolled 11,7 using d20+5,2d6+1 with rolls of 6,1,5.

Renee moved into action. It was clear the tactical need to free Erlin and Ragonda to aid Ursion was paramount at this point. She splayed her hands open and sheets of intense fire burst forth from her fingers to engulf the two men attacking her comrades!


MOVE: AG7, cast at apex to catch opponents at AF9 and AF10
Standard: Cast Burning Hands Focus Spell (6th level) 5d4 - for 9 damage Saving Throw Reflex half (DC 15); Spell Resistance yes. Should hit the two opponents facing Erlin and Ragonda

12:25, Today: Renee Esca rolled 9 using 5d4 ((2,1,1,3,2)).

"Guess I'll not be needing this anymore. Since you were so nice to meet me face to face, it's time for you to meet Erastil now." She dropped her bow, drew her longsword, and slashed at the Bandit before her!

[OOC: Free Action: Drop Bow.
Move Action: Draw Longsword.
Attack Action: Attack bandit in AF9.

19:03, Today: Radgonda Lebeda rolled 25,9 using 1d20+5,1d8+2 with rolls of 20,7.  Longsword Attack.
19:04, Today: Radgonda Lebeda rolled 15 using 1d20+5 with rolls of 10.  Roll to confirm crit.
Hit AC: 25 (Nat 20, Crit)
Confirm: 15 (Confirms do to hitting AC)
Damage: 9 x 2 (crit confirmed!) = 18 damage!

Damn, sweet hit for once!]

Ursion, reeling from the axe blows as he is swarmed by there of the bandits, threw out an ineffectual swing as he took a step back, his shield ringing with the blades of the other two.

Urlin casts a magical sleep over the area. While the main target remains awake the bandit across from Radgonda starts to slump over and then collapses into a magically deep slumber.

I shifted the target to AF10 so you wouldn't potentially hit Radgonda. It is not targeted at enemies only.

Tosk moves back, firing as he goes but the shot clips a branch and is spoiled.

Renee moves up and fries the two bandits by Radgonda, hitting both the sleeping bandit and the standing one with full force.

Radgonda steps in and puts her sword through one of them, killing the man.

Ursion swings at the leader but his mace is intercepted by an axe blade and turned away.

Falco drops his bow and engages with the bandit and the two end up in standoff skirmish.

---

Sensing an opportunity all the bandits in the North swarm around Falco. The brave halfling puts up a terrific defense but one attack slips through striking him.

The two archers both take shots at Tosk but he has good cover from that direction and the shots bury into tree trunks instead of his belly.

The formerly sleeping now burning bandit scrambles to his feet only to be cut down by Radgonda.
Successful AoO strike.

Ursion is able to defend himself against the two bandits but the bandit leader is quite skilled with her axes and he takes yet another hit.
8 damage


Combat Round 3

Tosk saw the two arrows thunk into the tree trunk by him and shook his head full of hair.  He needed to make sure he kept a tree between him and the archers so he moved once more and then shot back at the archers hoping to put their heads down.

Move to I16 keeping the pit between him and the bandits while also keeping some cover from the two archers.
Missed my shot once more.

Ursion, now bleeding heavily from  multiple axe wounds, was still in his feet  .

Had it not been for his newer, sturdier armor he would almost undoubtedly be dead already...but for now he continued to fight, and traded the blow he received with another, harder blow if his own as he mace smashed into the leaders leg.

A few more seconds might tell if he would be able to hold the line by himself.

With the two bandits in front of her out of the way, Erlin began to take her bow out and begin her song of rage.


(OOC: Action: begin Rage Song; move equivalent action - take out and arm longbow)

Tactically, the battle was still against them. They'd lost the advantage of surprise, their forces were split and vulnerable, and if Falco managed to survive at all, then she'd count that a miracle. Ursion was faring poorly and Tosk would be the next target should they fail to assist him next.

A slightly frustrated huff issued forth as Renee unleashed her other prepared spell, GREASE, to give Ursion a fighting chance!

Standard: Cast Spell (Grease)
Move: None
Free: None

Grease coordinates: AB6xAC7 (10' square) - Should capture AC6 and AC7. DC 15 Reflex.

A grease spell covers a solid surface with a layer of slippery grease. Any creature in the area when the spell is cast must make a successful Reflex save or fall. A creature can walk within or through the area of grease at half normal speed with a DC 10 Acrobatics check. Failure means it can't move that round (and must then make a Reflex save or fall), while failure by 5 or more means it falls (see the Acrobatics skill for details). Creatures that do not move on their turn do not need to make this check and are not considered flat-footed.

She moved quickly to the next one and stabs it!

[OOC: Move to AE7.
Slash at bandit at AD7.

23:02, Today: Radgonda Lebeda rolled 19,4 using 1d20+5,1d8+2 with rolls of 14,2.  Longsword Attack.
Hit AC: 19
Damage: 4]
