What happens after we go inside?

Sovereign Court

Male Human

Ardent sits at the single straight backed chair near the desk Touchstone spotted earlier. He opens the package, opens a compartment in the desk, and drops the poison in it. He then looks at the small group in front of him.
"Exactly who are you? What skills do you have that I could find useful? Tell me this and I will try to give you adventurers a good job.", he says.

well, I am skilled in survival, and the art of magic

"A magic user!", Grima exclaims quietly, "They are indeed hard to find these days. What about you, Dwarf?"


Human(Vudrani) Cleric(Abadar) 1

"I can help keep everyone else alive by healing them. I am not bad in a fight either, but even better than that I am a good enough talker to avoid most fights."

Sovereign Court

Male Human

"We have our diplomat!", the Ranger mocks, "Truly, we do need someone who can heal though."


M Human Fighter 1

"Simply put, I do what needs to be done", growls Tanrak.


Human(Vudrani) Cleric(Abadar) 1

Was the ranger being sartastically funny or rude? I need to know so that my character can respond appropriately.

Sovereign Court

Male Human

He was being sarcastically funny, Brevan.
And it's good to have you back, Tanrak.

"The strong and silent type. I like that.", the Ranger replies to Tanrak.


Human(Vudrani) Cleric(Abadar) 1

"I do what I can.", says Brevan with a smile on his face.


M Human Fighter 1

Very good to be back. :)

"How many of my men will you need to jump a caravan?", the Ranger asks.

And it's equally good to have you back, Tanrak!


Human(Vudrani) Cleric(Abadar) 1

"That would depend on the size of the caravan, the quality of the guards, and how much we are expected to refrain from killing people."


M Human Fighter 1

"What would you have us do once the caravan has been secured?"

" What is the caravan transporting, and are the people guarding the caravan evil or acting against the law ? I have some spells that might help with incapacitating the guards, and I am in favor of not killing them, in possible."

Sovereign Court

Male Human

Suddenly a hooded lantern is lit and an older man dressed all in leather and animal furs approaches from the far corner of the room. He opens up a map and places it on Grima's desk.
"There are three covered wagons, each drawn by one or two horses and guarded by a decent amount of armed guards. They are probably no match for folks of your battle prowess though (eyeballing Tanrak). On top of it all there is one Ranger leading the caravan. I want him brought here alive, but the means by which you bring him are yours to decide."

"You may do with the guards as you wish.", says Grima, "They are just doing their job, so not evil, but nor are they friends of mine. All this said, how many men will you need?"

"Two, I think. I can take care of a lot of guards with my spells.


M Human Fighter 1

"Agreed"

Sovereign Court

Male Human

The older man nods and directs your attention to the map.
"The road the caravans take is a short run from the clearing, You'll need to leave as soon as possible to intercept those wagons."
He takes a dab of ink on his feather pen and makes a dot where the cabin is, then another on the marked path. He connects the two with a line and hands Nimt the map.
Ardent turns to you all and says, "My men will meet up with you at the hill just above the road. They'll be hiding behind trees and shrubs, so expect them. Anything else?"


Human(Vudrani) Cleric(Abadar) 1

"Where are we trying to stop the ranger from getting to?"

I am wondering if the caravan has to stop anywhere, even to rest. If we can get to him without guards or less guards then no/less guards will have to be killed or injured.


M Human Fighter 1

Good points...not too sure how much I trust the "help" anyway... ;)

Sovereign Court

Male Human

The older man speaks again, "The next town. The Ranger threat there is growing and he's leading wagons of their supplies. If we can give them a shortage, that will slow them enough for our forces to intervene. The caravan will not stop. The guards and drivers work in shifts while the Ranger patrols farther ahead every now and then. If you want to catch him alone, then's the perfect time."


Human(Vudrani) Cleric(Abadar) 1

"We need to figure out the schedule for him to scout ahead. Once we do we can take him more easily."

How much cover is along the path?

Are any of you good at grappling people?


M Human Fighter 1

Perhaps we can simply shadow the caravan and wait for him to leave...then we can set the ambush.

My grapple is nothing more than "standard".

" I'll try to Color Spray him if I am able to act faster than him, and Daze him if not. If we could get our hands on some Tanglefoot bags, that would also help, otherwise we would have to do with Tanglefoot arrows.
Maybe the cleric can use True Strike to ensure that his attack with a Tanglefoot weapon hits ?

Nimt has color spray. :)

What kind of sorcerer would I be if I didn't had it ?
stll, if the bad guys win intiative and get locked into melee before I can cast, that makes things more difficult

This idea works for me.

Have you guys decided what you're going to do then?

I'd just follow Tanrak, if this game is still active..

He is recruiting or just started a 3rd game. I thought this game was dead when nobody was responding, but I was ready to adventure on. I would have applied for the 3rd game, but I have joined another game since then, and I don't want to be greedy. :)
