"and how do we know that you haven't simply given yourself a convenient cover and are here to take the gem for yourselves?" Drozak is suspicious that they showed up right at this time.
Drozak will hand the mystweaver his blade.
"removing the stone is a risk, but leaving here a greater one, perhaps we can bring it to the authorities and say we found the temple with the guardian already dead?"
"given what these carvings show perhaps we should leave this gem in place at least until we can confirm that we won't release a hostile spirit by removing the gem."
Drozak will slash the statue again

Remembering what Kajala said about the animated statue, Drozak is ready for combat. "Kajala, Hrusk form a line with me, we will engage the statue directly. Rhanviel back us up with magic, Aralu, Iruaka circle around and take the statue from the flanks. Niusha get the gem. Our goal here is the get the gem not kill the statue, no point risking our necks once we recover the gem."

Drozak will charge one of wolves, preferably one away from some of the others.
confirm pretty sure that won't confirm, but the wolf is probably hurting.
"Kajala, my friend, are you feeling better this morning? We will depart after we have breakfast."
Aralu gives a moment's pause, "I suppose we are only splitting the value of the ruby then? What of anything else we find? Maybe he would be just as satisfied giving us the location of the gem and us retrieving it without him." Aralu looks over her shoulder a moment before turning back to the discussion. "He is heavy in drink and weak with regret, it would be careless of us to bring him along in his current condition. A liability I care not for, and he likely will worsen by totomorrow./b] [B]"I will speak with him and let him know that my friends will be happy to help, splitting everything we find equally between all of us, but he must be sober if he wants our aid." Drozak will then go over to Kajala and give him the news. "Kajala, my friend, my associates will agree to aid you under the following conditions, everyone who participates gains an equal share of the value of everything we recover and all participants must be sober. If these conditions are acceptable to you we shall leave at daybreak tomorrow."
"Bhakiri could be a lure to trap us." Aralu says as her wicked grin appearing on her expression. "This doesn't change my curiosity, as I think we shall be here for the week. Guaranteed work is hard to come by, let alone free meals and room away from the commons. Tomorrow we'll drag addled Bhakiri to his revenge and our supposed reward, and the next day we'll arrange a tracker to find the camp we bypassed on the way here." The smile fades from her mouth. "Sound good?" She asks, her tone barely making it a question. "it is true that Kajala may be trying to trick us, but he will regret such an action quite rapidly. If he is genuine he may prove to be a useful friend and what better cause to make money than helping one avenge their fallen friend. I approve of your plan for the next few days, who knows they may lead to other work as well."
"I know not the exact sum, but the Bhakiri has agreed that it will be split evenly between all who participate."
Drozak will fill everyone in on the side job Kajala has for them, and also reminds people that they should visit the bandit camp, there could be good of worth there.
"If my friends agree yes, I will go and speak with them now."
"If Kajala share profit equally with all, Drozak may have some friends to help recover the ruby and avenge your friend."
"Did you get the ruby at least?"
"Well met my friend, I am Drozak. There is nothing better than a good drink after a good fight is there."
Drozak will take two and pay with a silver. "I know not who you speak of."
Drozak will get a drink from the bar, then find a place with several seats to sit.
Drozak How do you respond? Do you agree to move on? I want to get other people's opinions before I push us one way or the other.
"There are no more of us. Our camp lies roughly two miles north of here, through the woods. Will you let us go, if we take you there?" "Is there anything of value in the camp?"
Drozak will tie their hands and feet with his rope. "Are their more in your band? Where is your camp?"

we need to take at least one alive for questioning.
"Throw down your weapons if you want to live for more than the next few moments." Drozak says to the surviving bandits. Diplomacy check

Hopefully my talk at least bought us some time for people to get in better positions.
"let us say this comes to blows, we have about even numbers as you. Even if you come out ahead I estimate that at least half your men will be dead or close to it. How do you like your chances of survival with half your men dead, several injured to take care of and large caravan gone missing in your territory. And if you lose I will personally see that every surviving member of your band is swinging from a branch before this day ends. Step aside or face the consequences." Diplomacy While he is talking Drozak manoeuvres himself into a position where he can charge the bandit leader. His curved blade is still sheathed.
Other than the PCs how many people in the caravan can/ will fight?
Drozak spends the first half hour after he gets up practicing with his blade, going through a series of blocks and slashes repeatedly, varying his footwork and speed with each new iteration. Once his drills are complete he approaches the rest of the group, "anyone care to spar for a round or two? Drills only help one's technique so much." While he awaits an answer he will grab a quick bite to eat and a drink from his waterskin.
Initiative Drozak will wait until after the shaman has cast his spell then charge one of the shamblers, preferably one that was hit by the spell but didn't die. He will power attack. charge
"Don't worry Hrusk, we will handle the camp. Why don't you check to make sure that there aren't any surprises waiting nearby?" He turns to Aralu, "Perhaps you and Niusha can get the fire going while I arrange the camp?"
Gameplay thread is up. What sentry rotation do we want, Drozak can do any time.
