K'Tzhang concentrating on looking for trails, misses anything else around him.
K'Tzhang looks closely at some ellsroot, growing by the side of the track. He dismounts next to the dark green plant with small yellow bell-like flowers, "Hmm, these are quite uncommon I think, but such a pretty flowers. I'll only pick a few, but infused with warm water, them make a sweet liquor, with restorative properties too." Taking out his knife, he cuts through the dark green stem, taking five or six of the coloured flowers.
As the group is traveling along, the come to a clearing upriver, with a camp in it, an occupied camp. As K'tzhang emerges from the treeline, one of them yells out, "INTRUDERS!"
Even those in the camp begin to make their racket, Sunny skips forwards with her bare ahnds raised and calls out,
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Folks should be workin' out who's who afore any one starts throwin' stuff about!"

K'Tzhang ducks for cover behind a tree, taking his horse with him, as it becomes apparent that the men across the stream, consider him and his friends as enemies and the missiles start firing. "What the....who did that....Oi stop it." he shouts, as he ties his horse securely to the tree.
As Sunny fails to have any diplomatic effect on these people, the woman amongst them laughs and says, "All of you will die here today!"
You all hear Donk tell Mr. Skitters to "Stay!" as he goes crashing into the trees, heading in the general direction of the creek.
Polson rushes up and plunks an arrow into one of the men by the logs. He does not fall.
K'tzhang manages to pull his horse out of the way of both Sunny and Belros.
The woman, and apparent leader, tosses two axes at Polson, both striking him. The second blade cuts along his neck, opening a wound that continues to bleed. She yells out, "Die you pathetic half-breed! Kill them you fools or I'll make sure the Stag Lord hears of your weakness!"
The two bandits by the logs hop over one log, taking cover. They each fire an arrow at Polson, and he manages to avoid them both.
The bandit in the tree fires an arrow that misses Polson.
The two bandits by the campfire move a little before firing at Sunny, both arrows missing her.
Belros moves up and plants a bolt into one of the men by the logs. He falls.
Nerik wordlessly moves up, heading for the two archers by the campfire.
Sulna hustles towards the axewoman.
"Okeys, once more from'a top..."
"Look, ye c'n either surrender t' us. In which case none of ye should die." Sunny yells,
"Or, ye c'n keep tryin' t' work fer th' Stag Lord an' hope ye dun't fek up an' Miss Strumpet there does end up killing you." She says indicating the axe wielding maniac-ess. While also beginning to get her x-bow out... >_>
Donk crashes through the trees some more, still heading in the general direction of the bandits.
Round 2
K'Tzhang use the cover of the tree, and pops his head round to fire an arrow at the human that threw the 2 axes. Calling out to Suny, he says, "Suny, I wouldn't waste your breath, typical humans are shooting first and asking questions later. Get yourself safe, before you get hurt."
Polson winces in pain and draws his swords and moves in towards the female bandit.
Polson winces in pain and draws his swords and moves in towards the female bandit.
Moves faster towards the two by the campfire, growling "You should have talked first, your stag can't save you now.", readying his morningstar and grave touch...
Sunny sets her x-bow to he shoulder and takes aim at the loud woman.
Sunny's bolt barely misses the woman's right shoulder.
Polson moves up to the axewoman and is struck by one of her axes.
K'tzhang's arrows plants itself solidly into the woman's left shoulder.
While taking a step towards Sulna, the woman says to her men, "Destroy them! Kill them all!" She strikes Sulna with each blade.
One bandit fires at Polson and misses. Another fires at Sulna and misses. A third hops over a log and fails to stab Polson with his sword.
Of the bandits near the campfire, they both move to on log, and kneel for cover from the log. They both fire arrows at Nerik. One arrows strikes him, the other lands on the log in front of the archer as he accidentally lets go of his bow and it smacks him in the face and knocks him on his back.
More bandits appear from the woods.
Nerik moves up to the log the archer is kneeling behind for cover.
Sunny takes a five foot step to her right the better to keep a clear shot/line of fire on the axe wielding maniac.
Polson moves 5 feet into a flanking position and takes two strikes at the bandit.
K'Tzhang runs forward, taking out his holy symbol and ducks behind the lagre log. Calling to Apzu, he sends a wave of healing waves out, taking in those around him, especially Sulna, Polson and Belros. As the flow of energy approaches the axe wielding bandit, and other wounded enemies his faith diverts the energy around them, thus barring them from the healing effects.
Nerik hops onto the log in front of him.
Out from behind a tree, an elf and human emerge. Belros glances and does a double take as the elf wearing his armor and his sword.
The axewoman sees them as well and yells out, "Tane! Caelin! Get in here and shows these fools how to kill interlopers!"
At her outburst, Polson, Sulna, and Sunny all look and see their old companion and horse thief, Caelin O'Hern.
The elf responds, "With pleasure my dearest Kressle. This lot shall fall easily before you, Caelin and I. Won't they Caelin?!" He fires a bolt which flies over K'tzhang's head.
Caelin locks eyes with Polson and grins. He fires an arrow at Polson, which the half-elf easily avoids. The brigand then draws his sword and readies his shield.
Sulna knocks the axewoman, Kressle with two quick punches, stunning her.
Sunny wastes another bolt, again failing to strike Kressle.
Donk crashes through the trees some more. Nerik can see him.
Polson viciously stabs the woman with one of his blades.
K'tzhang rushes up and sends out a wave of healing energy as he takes cover behind a log.
Kressle stands there, recovering from Sulna's assault.
One bandit jumps over a log, landing next to K'tzhang, trying and failing to stab the kobold.
Various arrows fly and swords flash. Polson is struck hard by one bandit's blade. Nerik and Sulna are each struck by a single arrow, Sulna's being the worse of the two hits.
Grinning, swings his morningstar at the head of the bandit near him.

Belros plants a bolt in the bandit next to Polson and the man falls with a thump against the large log beside him.
Nerik hammers down with his morningstar on the bandit below him. Sadly, the man is still alive, and conscious.
The elf with Belros' crossbow fires a bolt, scratching Belros.
Caelin easily clears the stream while charging Belros. He strikes the half-drow mightily.
Just as Caelin's blade bites into Belros, Sulna strikes Kressle twice. The first rocks her on her heels, the second causes a loud and easily heard crack as Sulna spins around, slamming his booted heel directly into the woman's chest, shattering her sternum and collapsing her ribcage. Though her armor doesn't break, it's obvious from the amount of gore that her flesh is broken beyond repair. Her eyes reveal she is dead before Sulna withdraws his foot, and long before her body his the ground.
Donk bursts from the forest with a roar and charges up. With a single swing, he removes the head of the bandit Nerik struck just a moment before.

Seeing Polson seriously injured K'Tzhang calls out, "Don't go too far, I'll see you right." With that the little blue kobold starts to move, hoping to duck the blow that might come from the bandit attacking him. As he swiftly makes his way to Polson, he takes his little metallic dragon, holds it and starts saying words in draconic. The symbol glows and the blue kobold concentrates... A golden light appears above Polson before it drops down enveloping him, and sinking into his body.
Polson smiles as the healing from K'tzhang washes over him, stemming the blood and pain. He tightens his grip on both swords and adjusts his stance for combat...

Just as K'tzhang is reaching out to heal Polson, the bandit next to him stabs him in the back. He does manage to heal some of Polson's injuries.
The bandits strike, one firing an arrow at and striking K'tzhang, one an arrow at and missing Sulna. The standing bandit by Polson stabs the half-elf. The bandit still alive nearest to Donk flees for his life, dropping his bow.
As Belros runs off to face Tane, Caelin strikes him down.

"Donk! Get Caelin!" as he moves down the log towards the bandit to his NE, grinning widely.
Sulna moves 5' to the left and attacks the bandit. (Assuming I'm reading the map correctly.)
Belros stops bleeding out.
Tane, the elf using some of Belros' stolen property confidently strides over to Belros and nudges him with his boot. "Ha! Still as weak when we found you before. Maybe you'll stay dead this time!" He laughs.
The traitorous Caelin charges past a smaller tree, and slashes Sunny with his whip-like blade.
Sulna takes a quick jump, nearly overbalancing and failing to strike with his first attack, but connects with his second. You have bloodied his nose.

"Here! Have some back!" She yells as her bolt skewers something vital on the target of her ire.
"Here! Have some back!" She yells as her bolt skewers something vital on the target of her ire.
K'Tzhang tries to protect his friends from the arrows that reign down from the bandits far away. Holding his silver dragon, he walks to a safe position and saying a prayer of obscuration.
