Gruk is at -15. He is not answering for awhile.
If this was there camp, then they will not be going to far. I say we track them down and deal with them as soon as possible.
Daal nods and then looks down at Gruk. "We need to mend up though. They will wait for us to leave. Lets check to see what their companions let off."
Daal waits for Kaztor to tend to Gruk's wounds and then he will start dragging all the dead bodies together to check them and then start burning their bodies.
You had a full nights rest. This happened just as people were waking up and getting ready for the day.
Looking at Gruk Mitleid shrugs. "Well I have some minor wounds too, but his are, much more pressing."
Dolgrin, looking around at the crew asks. "Who can I help heal?" He lays his hands on Mitlied,
Katz will burn half of his channels to heal everyone, including himself.
Channels
That brings Gruk up to 1 hp.
Wdrozgrúk wakes; sort of
"Ugh! What happened?"
Elathras continues turning bandits over, checking their bodies for anything of value. Turning to Gruk he points to his silk scarf covering his nose. "You got whacked on the head, Gruk and started to stink, but it's ok, I have a scarf over my nose!"
On each of the dead brigands are studded leather armor, buckler, rapier, dagger, shortbow, 40 arrows, 1d4 sp, 2d4 cp. The leaders have a potion of cure moderate wounds, masterwork studded leather armor, buckler, rapier, dagger, shortbow, 10 +1 arrows, 40 arrows, 1d4 gp, 2d4 sp.
Kaz detects magic on the other weapons, after telling the group about the magical arrows.
Asking to take the arrows Mitleid takes his time to pick the best 60 and adds them to his quivers, and especially the magical ones.
After using his lay on of hands on Gruk, "You still looks a little peaked, I will cure you some more." He then casts clw on gruk twice.
Just the two potions and 20 arrows.
Elathars looks around the group, "Well Gruk, now that your done with you nap we can go right?" Looking at the group, "Do we want to follow the bad guys to their camp or do we want to go to the 'Ferry'?"
Daal picks up one of the potions "If you want to chase them down but they might have more in their camp."
Spellcraft potion A
Spellcraft potion B
Elathras smiles "Your right Daal, but they weren't that tough and we would be doing the people in Zelcor's Ferry a favor!" looking at Gruk, who seems a little worse for wear. "What do you think Gruk, you took the worst of it, do you want a little more pay back, or do you want to go to 'the Ferry'?
"That spellcaster was powerful. If you intend to fight him, you would be wise to do it before he replenishes his spells. Though by my calculations he used approximately 3 spells. He would have much more than that prepared.... Unless he had more defensive spells cast that would wear off."
"Thanks, Dolgrin, I feel better."
"Got some nasty scars, though."
"I think we better go back to Zelcor's Ferry, Elathras."
"We can always come back for a rematch after."
"Going back is the safest option, but if we kill the wizard I could learn his spells for our own uses."
Treasure:
390 arrows. There were 8 brigands and 2 leaders dead. The potions are labeled.
Elathras looks from Gruk to Irenicus, standing between them, waiting for someone to make a decision. 'What's that smell?' turning toward Gruk, sniffing a little, he pulls his silk scarf higher on his nose and takes a couple of steps towards Irenicus. "So's?"
I say we push forward and remove the threat now
"How many of them are left?"
About half where left and they melted into the wood. By the time you heal, they are well gone.
"We'd never catch up to them. They know the woods a darn sight better than us. I think it would b safer, if we left them to go on their way. And now, yes, I say we take whatever is usable from their gear."
"Let's head to the Ferry. Maybe best for them not to be found."
Elathras shrugs and begins to lead the team back to the road they came from and head to Zelcor's Ferry
"I am no fan of exploring woods. Caves, everyday. Woods..Mee!"
"Going back to Zelcor's Ferry is the better option."
"We'd probably walk into another of their traps. Again."
"I agree. Let's get back to the city. Check on our holdings and see if that crazy goblin is still crafting arms and armor..."
So be it
Your march is uneventful during the day.
Watches
Everyone roll perceptions as you sit down for dinner.
Perception
That should bring him back up to 35/39 hp, and a good night's snooze will do the rest.
That will also leave 33 charges on his wand of CLW.
Trakas and Gruk will hear movement coming from the east. Roll init you two.
