The wagons are 60 feet from your group.
The Steg let's you leave and holds a defensive position of the herd.
Now all of you hear the thundering footsteps. Suddenly A Spinosaur Emerges from the jungle bellowing hungrily. The stegs begin to form a defensive circle around the wagons and their young.
The spinosaurus begins to look for easier prey. I need Survival+Stealth Checks from each of you. Knowledge Nature gives +2 boost to both rolls for DC 15 and every five points for which the check is made by.
This is where the checks become important.
Oh and Felixian is 30 feet up in a tree. A very convenient biting height.
The Spinosaurus perks up and turns it's massive head in your direction. It's nostrils flaring as it sniffs the air.
Felixian scurries further up a tree trying to get higher but this draws the dinosaur's attention.
Seeing Felixian the Spinosaurus runs up to the tree and collides with it. Under the weight of the giant lizard the tree shakes violently threatening to throw Felixian from it's branches.
Felixian is at the top of the tree, it is about 60 feet tall. You need to make one, possibly two Reflex saves.
First save is to stay in the tree. DC 15
If you fail the first, then make another DC 15 reflex save.
If you fail the second you fall 60 feet to the hungry dinosaur below you.
If you fail the first but succeed the second, you are hanging from a branch. With a climb it is a simple move to pull yourself back up. If you are forced to make a reflex save in this position, you only need to fail once to fall.
The rest of you have an opportunity to act before the Spinosaurus goes again. The Stegasaurs are content to stay out of this and simply stay by their next protecting it.
I will make sure that I am in a position where I cannot be seen by the large threat and crouch down to remain hidden. I will then wait to see what happens with Felixian.
Anyone else? Someone going to help Felixian?
Thanqoul quickly mutters to himself and waves his hand away from the group.
Thanqoul quickly mutters to himself and waves his hand away from the group.
How far? Do you make sure the dinosaur sees it or does it simply appear and runs off. The dinosaur is focused on Felixian and not going to notice the horse if it simply appears 60 feet off and runs. You have to let me know where it's going to go and what it's doing.
Okay, the horse appears and races past the dinosaur kicking up brush and breaking branches. Once the Dinosaur sees the horse it bellows and begins to chase after the steed. The two are now 100 feet away.
What do you guys do?
Felixian waits until the dinosaur's farther away before quickly climbing down and rejoining the others. He goes to Thanquol. "You're right, that was a neat trick. Thanks for the save."
Thanqoul nods at Felixian.
"No problem, but let's save the celebrating until we get away from that horrible monster. I think we should find a place far away from here to look through what was discovered in the caravan."
Thanqoul waits for someone to lead the way and follows as stealthily as he can.
I am laying on the ground under some brush when all of a sudden a hoof lands inches away from my face, I jump slightly as nearly let out a scream until the horse continues to run off and draws the dino with it. Once it is far enough away I get up and rush over to Felix's tree gesturing for him to come down. Once down I nod at Thanquol's mention of leaving, so I sneak away from the tree hoping the others will follow; unless someone else takes the lead, and head back the way we came until we are in a safer spot than we already are in.
Shilara nods, keeping her bow at the ready. She begins to sneek right behind Nyx, her heart pounding. "That horse stunt was really impressive.. Ill have to tell him that later."
She sneezes and curses under her breath.
You guys have descended and begun to flee the scene as quietly as possible.....not as quietly as you'd like.
You get pretty far but are soon attacked again. Four velociraptors leap from the brush and attack. They have the initiative and move in.
Round One Foes
Nyxalia is attacked by two raptors. She takes 17 points of damage from 5 successful hits.
Razorclaw gets one foe on her who attacks all out. Two attacks hit for 8 damage.
Shilara is also attacked and gets hit twice for 10 damage.
Still round one, your turns.
My furs is starting to turn a deep crimson colour as my blood is leaking through my skin and staining my fur everywhere. I grab the wound on my stomach with one hand almost in tears because of the pain, "Brother ... it hurts. Please make the pain go away." At this point tears begin to roll down my furred cheeks, leaving clean lines where the rolling tears wash away some of the dirt.
Razorclaw yowls in pain as the claws slash at his flesh. Bloodied and limping, the leopard nevertheless snarls as he attacks back with equal force, bestial rage burning in his eyes.

Rishkarri, not currently being attacked, sees two raptors attacking the female catfolk. She starts yowling and making strange gestures in the air, reaching out to one of them, entreating it to join her, before moving in to aid her companion.
Shilara curses as the veloceraptor claws at her flesh, ripping it like paper. "Ugg! You foul beast!" She steps back and aims her bow. In one swift action an arrow flies and digs into the raptors skin. "Nyx! Are you okay!?" She readies herself for the next blow.
Felixian growls angrily as the raptors attack his sister. He moves up to a flanking position and claws at it.

(if both hit)
Thanqoul winces as he hears Nix's pain. He reaches into his bag and pulls out a scroll.
"Nix get next to me, so I can heal you."
Seeing Felixian get into postion to attack, I slash out at the dinosaur with my claws as well.
Once I have slashed out with my claws, I step towards Thanqoul as he says he can makes some of my pain go away.
Round One Results
Between Nyx and Felixian, you two bring down one of the raptors.
Shilara scores a hit as well.
Um....Thanquol heals Nyx? I don't know how that ability works.
Razorclaw hits with two attacks and confirms the crit with the claw attack.
Round Two Begins
The Raptors attack.
Rishkarri - The one Raptor presses against Razorclaw with four attacks scoring with only one, the talon for 5 damage.
Shilara - The Raptor in front of you five foots to melee and full attacks you. Two attacks hit for 6 damage.
Nyx - The Raptor presses after you and full attacks. Hitting once for 4 damage.
Their first volley benefited from charge attacks and you guys being flat-footed.
Your Turns.
Razorclaw snarls at the cut, but it doesn't bother him as much as the others did. He continues attacking, practically a blur of fur and claws.

The druid closes the distance to the same raptor, swinging her scimitar at it with a feral growl, as if to say nobody touches my friend and lives.
, ,
The Raptor slashes its claws at me in retaliation for attacking its kin and it strikes a painful blow across my thigh. This pain causes me to collapse to the floor unconscious.
Even though I have collapsed on the floor, but injuries do not appear to be getting any worse, therefore my life in no danging of ending through my current wounds.
Going to hate myself for this, but..
with that taunt Thanqoul steps back and finally casts the spell he promised Nix.
Enya lets out a grunt of pain, her eyes narrowing and a hiss escaping her lips. "You clever girl..."
As hard as she tries, she cant get her injured arm to pull back the bowstring. The arrow plops down harmlessly at the raptors feet. "S@+&..."
Felixian roars in rage as the raptors rip into his sister. He attempts to vent his fury on Nyx's attacker.

Round Three begins
Raptors attack:
The badly wounded raptor Rishkarri is now scared and withdraws, fleeing back into the jungle.
The other two raptors remain and fight.
Felixian - The Raptor you scratch turns to scratch you back. You are hit twice for a total of 8 damage.
Shilara - The raptor that was attacking you and pushes harder against you. However, in spite of the volley of attacks, the Raptor misses completely.
Two raptors remain. Both are hurt. Your turns.
Shilara laughed as the raptor missed, taking a quick step to the side to dodge. She aimed her arrow right at the beasts chest. "You need to be put down." Ignoring the pain pulsing all around her body, she let the arrow fly.
Felixian hisses as the raptor scores a couple hits but presses the assault. Unfortunately, the scratches distract him, and his claws miss.
if both claws hit
Even though I regain consciousness I remain on the floor until some more of my wounds have recovered.

This situation is SOOOO tempting for me to be malicious. But I am a nicer GM than that.
Thanqoul moves and pulls out his crossbow before trying to fire at the raptor attacking Shilara.
Rishkarri growls and snarls at Razorclaw, pointing to the raptor by the male catfolk, directing him to attack. She then charges at the raptor by the snake-woman, swinging her scimitar in a deadly arc.
,
The leopard, hearing the command, runs at the other raptor by the strange furry person, skidding to a stop and sinking his teeth into the beast's leg.

Round Four Begin

Shilara - You are hit twice for a total 5 damage.
Felix and Razorclaw are flanking with one raptor.
Though Rishikarri is opposite Shilara, Shilara is using a bow and does not threaten the raptor, no flank is available.
Your Turns.
I remain on the floor still, waiting for more of my wounds to heal. The pain is immense, but definitely fading away slowly.
come on, I need to end this... Angered by his recent misses, Felixian rips into the raptor with everything he has.
Barely able to concentrate, she stumbles 5 feet to the side. She draws an arrow back, but because of the pain, cannot focus. She prays it hits and winces as the shock of the bow jilts her arm.
Thanqoul sighs.
This is a horrible idea, but I have to guard her.
Thanqoul mutters some words and moves in front of Shilara.
Razorclaw attacks the raptor three times, first sinking his teeth into its flesh, then slashing at it with both paws. He bounces around as he attacks, keeping light on his paws, trying to bring the creature down.

His human, meanwhile, swings her blade at the other dinosaur, snarling in a bestial manner as she does so.

It withdraws managing to avoid AoOs from Rishkarri and Razorclaw.
Combat Over
Two Raptor corpses are on the ground.
As soon as the last raptor drops, Felixian runs over to Nyx. "How bad is it, sis? Can you walk?"
Once all of the fighting has stopped I climb up and fail to stand up, falling hard onto my bottom. I look up at Felixian, "You remember when I fell out of the big oak when I was little and couldn't move my arm for a month... it hurts more than that! But the furless mans magick seem to be working, the pain is slowly dying down." With that I try to stand again, this time succeeding but I am very shaky from the waist down, where the majority of my wounds are. I look down at the wounds and see them closing slowly, and smile weakly at Felixian, "He's good to have around."
After about a minute my wounds stop closing and I seem a bit more steady on my feet, if a bit out of breath.
The druid cleans her scimitar on the grass, then crouches next to her leopard, purring reassuringly. The cat blinks up at her, nuzzling into her side with a small mewl of pain. Rishkarri sighs, knowing she is unable to do anything more for now.
She looks over the others, and gives a curt nod, as if to say "job well done". She then looks over the raptor corpses, trying to remember whether their meat is good to eat or not.
As the wild woman starts to carve up the corpses of the dinosaurs I sit back down on the ground and reach into my back where I pull out the box that was on the caravan. I then reach onto my belt and retrieve my lockpicks which are made from Antler and metal.
I look around to make sure that this is a good place to sit before I start working on the lock. Then if it is clear I start work on the lock.
