A desperate attempt to reclaim the ancestral Dwarvish mine of Tar-Urkatha from the darkness that has engulfed it....

Feigr listens as Love explains his thinking, "I suspect we're going to have to deal with the gnolls before Stonebrow arrives. But, I don't mind putting it off a little longer. Like you've said, perhaps more information or an ally is available."

So that's Love and Feigr in favor of backtracking where the giant came from and seeing what remains in his home.
One more in favor and I'll consider it quorum...

DM, how much time has passed since the last missive to the caravan? Seems like this would be a good time for an update if possible.


Minor Crab-beast

You're due for another message if you wish to send one now before heading off.


Minor Crab-beast

Missive to Stonebrow can be done in retrospect

Enlisting the aid of Nabo's olfactory senses once more the party sets out to follow the trail of the Giant's coming - leaving Tar-Urkatha to slowly shrink to their backs. It is hard going for the little jackalwere as the trail is old and there are many competing scents; but he manages to keep on it's path.

After a good few hours travel Nabo suddenly stops and rears back on his haunches growling faintly. You are just in front of a slight rise and turn in the path. He says quietly "I smell dog-head men near-close..." gesturing with his snout around the corner ahead of you...

Cynara quietly readies her weapons and makes sure her CLW wand is easily accessible. Leaning down towards Love, she whispers, "Well, then. Would you care to take a look ahead before we go rushing in?"

Female voice: No, no! You're going the wrong way! We're right there, we can cut our way through them!
No. That's been tried and failed. We will go about this methodically. You're an axe and I'm a dwarf, we have a long time to do this right.

Padrym follows with the others, preparing for combat.

Assuming Feigr thinks he can cast without attracting attention, he softly whispers, "Battle may be near again. Dwarves of old, come and shield me with your skill."

Dolgrym casts Mage Armor on himself, improving his defenses for three hours. After that he silently stands behind the group, letting the trackers do their thing, creating no distractions for them.


Minor Crab-beast

I'll assume Love stalks to the corner for now.

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 Perception: 1d20 + 5 - 15 ⇒ (19) + 5 - 15 = 9 - safe
Perception (inc. Canny): 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 7 + 4 = 30

Love moves forward to take a look around the corner and sees that there is indeed gnolls ahead. Roughly 150ft away over clear ground there is a small camp of roughly four or five tents and he can see gnoll and hyena both. The lay of the land means that there is only one way to come upon them, and there is no real way to avoid conflict if you aim to keep going this way.

You count ten gnoll and four hyena there, you also note that one of the gnoll is armored better and there appears to be a priestess among them. Judging by what you can see of their armament and supplies you gauge that they are likely a hunting party. Checking the ground near to you yields no tracks, so you guess that they come from further up the path.

If Love is after any other details, I can fill them in

Feigr listens to Love report on the gnoll encampment. "Well, roughly two of them to each of us. I don't like the idea of getting pinched between them and the forces at the gates. We should be able to take this group if none are hidden in the tents. I should think we should plan on how to eliminate the priestess. I don't have any magic to incapacitate her. Anyone else?"


Male Human Paladin /4 ]Hps 36/36 AC 23 FF 21 T 11 CMD 18 Fort +10, Ref +6, Will +8 Init +1 Per +0

"My tactics are pretty straight forward. I can advance on her and ignore the others until she is dead. Otherwise I would suggest ranged weapons. I probably should focus on the heavily armored gnoll."


Female Elf Oracle (Life)/7 Swashbuckler (Inspired Blade)/1 HP 55/65 AC 20/T 14/FF 18 Init +3 Perc +14 Fort +4 Ref +7 Will +7/+9 vs. ench. effects

"I have a suggestion. Start by attacking one or two of the hyenas at range and shouting. Once wounded, they'll be less easily controlled, and more likely to simply charge in our direction; we can deal with them while the gnolls are still closing. Dolgrym can use his toppling attack to knock down the priestess, so even if she survives she can't support the gnolls as effectively. When they close, Khepri, you focus on the leader, Feigr and Padrym work on the rest, and I'll work on keeping everyone healthy. If they try to return ranged attacks, we retreat out of their line of sight."

'I don't like this we are badly outnumbered and they have magical support. But I dont see much of a choice." Love draws and readies his crossbow. "Old Grey Gary had two peices of advice on fighting. First, don't it is only wasted overhead and second, kill the casters first.
We need to remove the godbotherer. I don't think I need to tell you what kind of havoc they can bring down if you give them the time. That said we have some good casters here and the gift of some time. Do you all have any magic that can guide or bolster us? We'll need every edge we can get for this barny."

If we start with Cynara's suggestion, I will cast spells to help guide our ranged attackers. I agree with Love that we should throw everything we can at the priestess."

"You've seen about all I have as far as my ranged bolts. I do have one other spell to make one of us much stronger for a few moments. While I am sniping, one of you who will be closing initially could use it more effectively, I think."

To Dolgrym,"Any aid in battle is appreciated"

"So, it sounds like we start with myself and Cynara providing magical guidance to Love, Khepri, and Padrym. The three of them shoot the hyenas. Dolgrym starts immediately on the priestess to see if he can keep her off her feet. As they close, we concentrate on the faster hyenas first, then the gnolls. As soon as we can get a clear shot at the priestess, we concentrate all efforts on her, especially Khepri. Any adjustments?" While waiting for an answer, Feigr grabs his skin of whiskey and takes a drink, preparing for battle.


Female Elf Oracle (Life)/7 Swashbuckler (Inspired Blade)/1 HP 55/65 AC 20/T 14/FF 18 Init +3 Perc +14 Fort +4 Ref +7 Will +7/+9 vs. ench. effects

"I fear that they'll be atop us before you could get a third shot off. And Love's right--killing the priestess would be better than simply knocking her down. So I'd say one of you shoots one hyena, the other two shoot the priestess, and then Dolgrym knocks her over. If they charge, by the time you take your second shot you should have some closer targets; take your shots at them while Dolgrym tries to take the priestess completely out of the fight. There's another thing that the last couple of fights showed: we can't split up. Even though spells can make us suffer when we're in a tight clump, none of us should be in a position to be surrounded and cut off."

Cynara casts bless on the party to start with, followed by guidance on Padrym.

You'll have three minutes of it, Khepri, so that'll be plenty of time to fire off a couple shots, too.

Well planned by all!
Will have the update setting the scene tonight when my son's gone to sleep in line with the agreed tactics.


Minor Crab-beast

Fickle Wind of Fate:
1d2 ⇒ 1

The party gathers to prepare themselves for the assault upon the encamped gnolls. Nabo is left to ensure the camels do not get spooked and take flight once the combat is joined. After the combined weight of divine and arcane fortification has been applied, you surge into the line of sight as one to open proceedings.

The gnoll camp is clearly not expecting conflict, as they have remained mostly at rest with no sentries or watch posted. They mill around a campfire, weapons at their sides - but not drawn. The well armored gnoll is one of the closest towards you, crouched on his haunches eating something. The priestess is out of sight at present, lost within the milling group of gnolls. The four hyena lie to one side resting on their bellies.

Initiative Block:
Feigr: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (17) + 0 = 17
Khepri: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
Padrym: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Dolgrym: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (5) + 0 = 5
Lowfield: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12
Cynara: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
Gnolls + Hyena: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (20) + 0 = 20
Priestess + Leader: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

Initiative Tracker (Surprise): Feigr, Cynara, Lowfield, Khepri, Padrym, Dolgrym

Surprise round is all yours (remember standard action only) - you have a clear LoS bead to gnolls and the leader - who are standing; or the hyenas - which are currently prone. You cannot pick out the priestess in the surprise round at this range, so cannot directly target her.
Each of you start roughly 150ft minimum from the lead gnolls, unless you would like to be further away (I'm assuming Cynara at least would stand back from the front line).

Once you've taken your Surprise round freebies, I'll insert the opponents into the initiative order in their place and roll onto Round 1.

Love's surprise round still to come. Please toss it in with your Round 1 action.

Both Padrym and Khepri's missiles fail to find their target, though Dolgrym's magically guided bolts of force have greater success. Slamming into the startled armored gnoll they rock him back on his heels though do not force him to the ground.

Eyes squinting to the distance he barks a few words and the gnoll and hyena are surprisingly quick to respond. The gnolls start to eat up the ground between the parties, while the hyena find their feet and follow upon the right flank. The gnoll draw javelins as they move, and as the gnolls rush forward you can pick out the priestess within the camp.

Initiative Tracker (Round 1): Gnolls + Hyena, Feigr, Cynara, Lowfield, Khepri, Priestess + Leader, Padrym, Dolgrym

Damage Tracker:

Gnolls are ~90ft from the front line, and hyena are ~100ft. Leader and priestess are both now visible, though with soft cover from the gnolls.

Love's first bolt strikes true and deals the armored gnoll a solid wound, though his second does not have the same accuracy.

Cynara girds Khepri against the coming foes, while Padrym's second shot is more accurate - striking the armored gnoll who seems to step less solidly and waver as he stands.

The armored gnoll barks at the gnolls and hyena before him, exhorting them to greater speed as he pads forward himself. The priestess runs behind the pack, keeping them as a screen between herself and her foes.

Twin bolts of force arc out from Dolgrym once more - striking the Priestess but unable to force her from her feet.

Some of the gnolls heed the words of their leader and charge headlong towards the party - eating the ground with long bestial strides. The other gnolls continue to jog forward more warily. The hyena loop around to the right, looking to attack the party from the flank.

Initiative Tracker (Round 2): Gnolls + Hyena, Feigr, Cynara, Lowfield, Khepri, Priestess + Leader, Padrym, Dolgrym

Four gnolls ran this round to close into melee. Two are attacking Khepri, while a single gnoll is on Padrym and a single gnoll on Feigr. The other six gnoll lag behind at ~30ft away.
The priestess and leader are both still ~100ft away at the top of round 2.
The four hyena are wide on your flank by about twenty feet and just behind the front line of scrimmage.

Cynara squints at the gnolls that have suddenly appeared in her restricted field of view and comes to a decision. She steps forward 5' so she's just behind Khepri and feints with her spear at the gnoll directly in front of the paladin, trying to force him to dodge into Khepri's stronger blow.
