Tiger's Heart (Inactive)

Is the forest darkening because it’s becoming night or is something else going on?

If sun is going down then look for place to camp, otherwise press on.

survival : 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

let us press on....and prepare for the worst....i doubt we will find a welcoming tavern waiting for us with fresh ale and smoked eels

Dardanius agrees with Tarvoth's logic

Weed, I agree that there's no hope of a tavern. And I don't want to lose this trail, but we will need to rest at some point, Tavern or no.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 7

whats the time do we think

It's getting darker because you are moving deeper into the thick canopy of the forest and it is past mid-day. You estimate that you have 3-4 hours of usable daylight remaining.

Rolls for Weed and Turran.

perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (3) + 11 = 14

survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20

survival: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

Tarvoth keeps a keen eye to the trail and picks up enough signs to keep the party in hot pursuit. He gets the sense that you are at least keeping pace with the wolves, maybe even picking up some ground. The trail leads down into a small creek valley and follows along for some time before leaving the water and climbing towards what you guess is a series of small hills.

Continue on or camp for the night?

Rolls either way.

Vote for camping.

camp it is

Dardanius will help keep watch

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 8

Oh no . . .

Need camping rolls for Weed and Turran.

perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

survival: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

i suggest we get going before the sun rises to gain ground

1d4 ⇒ 21d20 ⇒ 4

During Tarvoth's watch he hears at least a few massive 'somethings' stomping about in the woods nearby.

If they are coming towards camp wake everyone, if not pass the information to the next watch. If Tarvoth is the last watch then just inform everyone in the morning and resume tracking the children and their captors.

perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (3) + 12 = 15

survival: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Assuming we are back on the trail:

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 7

retcon camping
perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19
survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

next day on the trail

perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

The sound of massive forms moving about in the darkness continues to get closer to the campsite so Tarvoth (1st watch; party is not yet rested) wakes the rest of the party; Tarvoth gets the sense that they can smell your whereabouts.

The party wakes and quickly readies itself as three monstrous amalgams of fur and feathers, bizarre half-bear/half-owl monstrosities, burst out of the woods, ursine claws lusting for blood and strigiforme beaks snapping hungrily for flesh.

Dardanius takes a step back and looses arrows into the beast:

Rapid Shot: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 9 - 2 + 1 = 15

Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

As a swift action use 1 pt from my arcane pool to give the black blade an extra +1/+1

Weed wounds a beastie, Tarvoth increase the party's chances, Dardanius misses wide with his first shot but blasts an arrow into a soft spot on his second, Turran misses.

The roar of battle echoes through the woods:

On Tarvoth
claw: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 171d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Dardanius nimbly avoids his target's jaws and gives a reply of two arrows:

Rapid Shot: 1d20 + 9 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 2 + 1 = 14

Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Weed swings wildly and misses; Dardanius' arrows can't penetrate the creature's thick pelt; Tarvoth heals; Turran's blade jolts into 1d3 ⇒ 1 Tarvoth's foe causing significant damage.

opps...thanks

Tuuran strikes again, but his magical force is significantly muted for some unknown reason; Weed's axe connects furiously, dropping the massive beast to the ground, blood spurting about; Daranius refocuses and lands two shots, seriously wounding the beast; Tarvoth heals and helps with the greataxe damage.

Dardanius keeps fighting the monsters:

Weed and Dardanius are able to bring down the last two creatures.

Tarvoth will channel for the group then cast a cure on himself. Then take a look around before resting for remainder of the night.

Do we need to roll for the other watches?

The remainder of the night passes without incident, but you do feel watched by many eyes. The massive beasts carried no loot.

did the beast come from the direction we are tracking?
