Let us move and find what we are looking for guestures to the door
we know little about them as yet; but they are organized; well trained, well equipt and have a rigid code of beliefs from what I ahve seen today; if have have numbers as well, and can controll weilders of the One Power; they could be a terrible enemy and vast threat to the Dragon distracting him from Tai Gaimon, If they all serve the shadow; we need tofind out more about them and find their weakness
what is beyond the door then..
If we go indoors; A'mar will put away his bow and noched arrow and take out his sheild and sword. -----
If the shadowsouled have these traveling gateways like what I have seen in the last week or so, this place could be overwhelmed before it resists without the aid of the Aiel, or any such place in the South is at risk. I for one am glad I dont have figure out how to deal with it. Patroling my section of the Blight was hard enough; with Gateways; Ptah, this is going to get really ugly really fast. Even vermin can be deadly if there are enough of them
A'mar smiles the would be the heavy part, Duty, I figure to hand out a lot of feathers to the shadowstained. This organized encampment right under our noses, this type of planning means there is likely fall back plans and thus fallback sites.
A'mar will keep his bow readied as he is in the middle of the marching order and keep careful watch for any who might be lying in ambush of his Aes Sedai as we travel. Have caution Vala Sharise of Fal Dara, Duty is as heavy as a mountain, death light as a feather. The Dragon is not as you would expect and neither is madness far from those close to him.
GM; can A'mar hear these comments?
Not sure what is going on and who is the bad guy; A'mar puts his sheild on his back and puts away his sword and gets out his bow and nocks and arrow and looks around for a target to support the group. Tesliin Sedaii, who are these people and what are we doing here? are we finished; should we withdraw? who are our allies and who are enemies?
A'mar stands close to Tesliin at the ready with sword still out, just behind her watching everywhere as he doesnt know who in this gaggle is freind or foe nor if these guards and mad ogreir will return.
Certainly, she is this way, but mind you I will not be chasing after anyone and leave her undefended in this precarious position without her orders Amorial watches the Ogier leave, "A'mar, can you bring us to Tesliin Sedai? After we regroup we must push forward!"
combat reflexes gives me 3 AOP that could be applied
Damage
Armor stat is right per the book I have... is the only thing going for me as I feel outclassed by everyone else here. ------
use 5 foot step if needed to keep things from getting between Ryland and myself.
if needed; initiative roll
A'mar readies for combat; shield up and sword en gaurde
I am not sure what they are doing or why they are standing among the broken timbers and such, but as for death, it is death to say here as well, at least fighting we have a chance, this building IS coming down, they might can move it or hold it steady with the One Power, but such as we have little chance if this building falls on us. Do you wish to wait for the Sisters and risk Amorial? I would save him if I can.
A'mar gets to the doorways and makes a quick survey and is aghast at the combat between the Ogier and curious about the conflict at the rear of the soldiers. He winces at the terrible blows the Ogier are inflicting, near panic at Amorial's wounds. Ryland, this building is unstable, will fall very soon, I hope the others come quickly as there is now a huge hole in the center. I will not let them kill the Builder and I am thinking we must clear this rabble from the doorway so the Sisters can evacuate. Negotiating from a falling building is untenable. These duels are foolish, let us act in concert and clear this mess ----
Gm: is Ryland fighting? I imagine I see the orges fighting and generall melee in the behind them right?
What was the result of my engineering check and am I back at the doorway?
GM; let me know the round I get back to the doorway; I think it will look like a general melee to A'mar with the ogier fighting and seeing a a melee at the rear which he will likely think is our Roeek coming to help us so I am thinking A'mar will charge into battle.
Engineering; untrained
Tesliin, there is a platoon of soilders at the door and some armored Ogier, we cannot hold them long [\b]
What is the status of the room with teslin and the building now that there is a big hole?
Tesliin, are you ok; how can I help! A'mar rushes in with sword and sheild ready.
in a bold voice There are no Forsaken here, such warped and twisted evil I would sense Elder Ogier A'mar looks sharply toward the direction of his Aes Sedie; then relaxes a bit. quietly to his comrades
A'mar sprints to check the situation of Tesliin and the others.
A'mar tries to keep careful watch of what is going on thinking this all might be a ruse, a loss here certainly would give a tactical advantage to the enemy and this supposed duel appears an interesting strategy to pull our team away from the tactical advantage of the doorway, but tries not to hold any hard feeling against those with him as to their lack of discipline as they are not soldiers.
A'mar feels great frustration and a bit of shame at this situation that is channeled to his Aes Sedai.
I cannot help you, my oath binds me to another path. May peace favor your sword A'mar stands ready in the doorway fully prepared for battle.
I wonder how many of this Lost Ogeir clan of Gardeners will be comeing for their support, I wonder how all this could be here under the Aiel noses and them not no; impossible really, Aiel have sharp eyes. I wonder if Aiel play the game of Houses
A'mar looks at the Builder agap Peace! Is that not ...hasty Tesliin
Spoiler: A'mar is momentarily shaken and disturbed for a moment
Interesting, are they nobles? trial by arms is the right of nobility against their accuser; at least in the Borderlands and I hear the Children have such a thing; though I dont know the trueth of it.
Amar yells so upstairs can hear
normal voice, with doubt
Ogier warriors! Peace! the world truly is mad. Is Gardeners a reference to Ogier Groves? I have never seen one but their are many famous ones in books. Builder, your people are so gentle and so kind; how can they be warriors, this troubles the heart. In this day we have seen many strange things; stranger more to come I should think Tesliin
Spoiler: A'mar's cool is broken by a wash of emotion and shock; then replaced with coldness which is his normal prelude to battle.
A'mar in a voice of command; but still behind the wall shouts out the doorway in a calm, steady; almost boored voice. so whom do we have, in the honor of the Light, the fortune of facing this day? Are you but misguided mercenaries we shall send to rebirth in the wheel in hopes of a Light guided return, or are you honorless Darkfriends to be crushed underfoot? Does duty and honor mean anything to you as it does to us? A'mar takes a look at them to see how they are arrayed and their probable tactic they will use for entry.
that was odd; he thinks us farmers, as if we hold hoes and sycles? Empress? hmm, let us remember these names; Subitie, Saske and Neij, I dont rememeber hearing their like before.
A'mar waits for the place to get rushed or for orders from the Aes Sedai
A'mar nods back. crouches with sword and sheild ready.
Rylan, Amorial, if they rip the front off this building, we will need to form a triangle back to back in front of the stairs; otherwise; I suggest Rylan and I on either side of the door and you, Amorial, wait back up; if they push in you may need to (bull) rush them to push them back out so we are not swamped by numbers. The fallen should also help block the doorway. This is going to be messy.
And here we go!
I will move down the stairs.
A'mar advances to I-9 if that is possible for a move action with sword and sheild ready and cloaked, my thought is to attack any who come through the shrubs as it might hamper their agility and the shrubs should help conceal me as I provide a buffer between the main group and the enemy; I will use my attack action if anyone comes close. Attack; warder sword;
Call your Red Sheilds to Arms then Roekk, if the Light please you, let us be about this
Still, for the Lord Dragon the Tyrant, we should find out who they, are, how many they are; and their intentions. Has the White Tower ordered any decree about such chained Aes Sedai? it seems an abomination that must be ended.
A'mar will step in front like a spectre; sheild ready and sword drawn. If he sees and incomming fireball, he will rush ahead and hit it with his sheild that it explode there and not on the whole party, otherwise will await the actions of the others. I am ready Stealth
We should set clear goal to victory then. In any battle, lines of withdrawl to regroup need to be set before going into action lest things go badly. Perhaps you Ashaman can just kill and cast fire and tear up earth, but the Aes Sedai will not channel to kill unless in defense. We have no idea how many troops are nearby, but perhaps the Lord Dragon would be very interested in these lightening legged users of the power. This is either sedition or a prelude to invasion. Has anyone weighed the risk to the Mistress we seek to rescue; can this be done quietly? The clash of arms, explosioins and sounds of the dying are far from quiet.
if you seek to do anything her besides watch, then death is inevitable; them or us, or rather death for us and a chain for you. The wheel weaves but there is little point negotiating with shadow. I would like to know what troops or reenforcemnts they have nearby, but from what I saw at Duamaii Wells, I guess it doesnt matter.
are all the Ashaman here; what do they suggest? I do not believe we can rescue the roofmistress without removing the the threats of the women with the leashed Aes Sedai nor the threat of the warrior and odd Ogier, but this may be beyond us.
