I'm happy for Barek to become a background character. Hopefully things will settle down, the last few months have been a real strain.

I really hope so. A couple of the games I've left were pretty much dead anyway, but I've had to drop out of several that were fun and ongoing. I'm pretty much down to just the games I run and a couple I"m still playing in, for now. :(
I'm going to have to apologize. I put in a post withdrawing from the game several weeks ago and it obviously got eaten. I certainly didn't mean to look as if I'd ghosted on you. 2019 has hit me hard and I don't have the spare time I had so I'm dropping most of the games I"m playing to concentrate on those I'm running first.
"That's nice, walk over to me so I can hit you."
"Or not." He mutters at his feeble strike.
Barek slumps to the ground with a groan. "Five minutes with the bastard who set that!" He mutters, "Five minutes when I can lift my bloody arms that is."
Barek looks dubious, but supplies a drop of blood from himself and Mong, soothing the confused dog after extracting the drop. He also calls on the bound between himself and his dog to gain Darkvision for some minutes.
Barek activates his bond with Mong, gaining Darkvision for a minute and readying his arrows.
Barek will compare the tracks to those he saw at the murder sites.
Barek continued firing at the Werewolf, but winced as Eluvias got mauled again.
Ignoring the howling Barek draws and fires smoothly.
"Crap!" Barek realizes a problem as the light fades. "Anybody have any magic for nightvision?"
"Shape shifter of some kind, or most likely a Werewolf." Barek sighs. "Can't be anything easy can it?" "Likely someone new to town as well, since we haven't had anyone killed and half eaten before."
"Wolf or Worg by the looks of the bites." Barek states after going over the corpses carefully. "Same animal both times too!" He straightens up and calls Mong to him. "I'll go check the kill sites." He ask to be taken to where the victims were found.
"Sounds like a plan to me." Barek agrees, giving Eluvias some more healing.
"I'm nearly out of spells as it is."
Worthless spawn of an infernal anus!" Barek curses angrily as Eluvias falls. Shooting again, hoping to end the thing in time to heal the Elf.
Drawing his dagger Barek starts cutting the ropes on Eluvias as quickly, but safely as possible.
"I hope Johund can do something about it before Eluvias is finished!" Barek thought grimly, continuing to try and keep the Elf alive.
Barek curses as Eluvis is captured, blood running from him. Stepping up behind the Elf Barek casts a healing spell on him.
Barek aims at eh glittering thing and shoots again, trying to stop it calling another monster to join it.
"Starting to really dislike this place!" Is Barek's terse comment.
Barek noting that it didn't seem to like cold send another Flurry of Snowballs at Red.
"No idea." Barek grumbles. He casts a spell on the thing.
And Mong makes the set complete.
Barek stares blankly.
Barek grits his teeth as his gorge rises. "Will you shut the hell up!" He growls.
Again his arrow flies wide.
Barek is shaken by the unsettling attack, his arrow going wild. Mong howls in distress as his ears hurt.
"That's an unhealthy thing to have hanging around." Barek growls suspiciously.
As two fall quickly Barek takes aim at the last and fires.
I'd need a new computer for the computer game sadly.
Barek calms the masses. "Don't be silly. Of course he's not selling prisoners for slaves! Our farms need fertilizer after all."
Barek grits his teeth and almost wills his arrow to hit the target this time. Mong helpfully bringing back his last arrow with a wagging tail isn't helping his mood.
Barek grumbles at his last shot and aims at Yellow again.
Barek takes aim at the speaker as well.
Barek groans as again things go badly. He aims at the snake fighting Johund.
"Man has point." Barek agrees, "It'll be winter soon and we better have some real shelter up by then." He looks at Oleg. "Mind if people have a problem it works a hell of lot better if they say so, rather than farting about claiming Amadeen is some kinda evil witch queen."
I hope you meant Goldenwood? I vote for Country: Mongtonia and Capital: Mongtown. :)
I'd be happy with that, still plenty of pests around.
Barek nods. "The fort is a good place to start up." He agrees. "Bit of a run to Oleg's though. We'll need a marked route and some form of patrol to cover traders and settlers."
"He's just gonna keep scaring the fishies till he gets what he wants, isn't he?" Barek sighs.
Barek shrugs, he's already bored at Oleg's and keen to get back out into the open hills again. "Entering the stolen lands covers a lot of territory." He remarks. "Anything that gives us more of a trail?"
Barek just looks around blankly until Amadeen points out that the trap had been sabotaged. "Trappers can get nasty over their favorite trapping areas?"
Barek will move to get a clear shot.
With a whistle he sends Mong around to harry the bear from behind.
Barek looks around with caution, Mong sniffs the area for any signs as well.
Barek gets closer and again shoots Orange.
"Lead with yer chin and you'll soon be toothless." He grumbles as he sees Johund get trapped.
Barek steps up and aims at Orange.
Barek is not happy about Mong being mutilated and ignores the parties byplay while patting his friend in sympathy.
"Who's evil enough to pick on a dog?" He grumbles.
"probably the only thing holding the hill up." Barek nods, looking around carelessly.
Barek was unsure of this Kingdom business, he'd joined up to make some gold and see the world prior to settling down somewhere he could stand. But the people around here needed someone in charge, someone who was more concerned with peace and building rather than someone like the selfish, greedy nobles back in Brevoy. 'If you're going to moan about the nobles then you better be ready to step up and do something yourself!' He finally decides ruefully. "Hold up!" He calls softly to the others when he spots the hidden entrance under the tree. "Looks like somethings lairing there?"
Likewise Barek has 4 ranks in Survival and will keep on growing at it.
