Wess frowns at his unsuccessful attemp to subdue the beast. "Maybe we just upon the gate and make sure it crosses the bridge without any trouble."

"It's a fine animal," Saldrina remarks. She approaches calmly, trying to reach out to the horse, but wary of getting kicked or bitten.

As you try to calm down the animal it kicks out wildly at each of you, before finally calming down. Wess is able to dodge a very strong kick, while Khel and Saldrina just gets the wind knocked out of them for a while.

Shouldn't. I don't think 4 points will even beat your Toughness. Even Saldrina was only Shaken by the attack.Aug 11, 2025 11:09 am
OOC:
Yeah, it was hit with a raise, but to save time and since I was at home I rolled the extra die physically to save time. I rolled bad, so while a good hit, it only did enough damage to make you shaken.Aug 11, 2025 4:02 pm
After getting a solid kick, Khel maintained a safe distance from the horse. He needed to stay conscious before the fight, afterall.

Wess will lead the horse out of this place, then rest and wait for Grimwulf to return.
Aug 13, 2025 8:43 pm
Grimwulf has an uneventful trip back to the Thistletop ruins, and you can all meet back up and discuss tactic.

"Welcome back. Were you successful in getting supplies? We have inspected this place while you were gone and the remains likely hold something dire indeed. We will need to be prepared and brave if we want to continue." Chigaru explains about the doors and what is likely behind them.
OOC:
I'm at 2 wounds. How's everyone else?Aug 14, 2025 4:18 pm
Wess stretches, preparing for what's to come. "let's not put this off any longer, and do what we came here for."
OOC:
Wess is good, that rest should have been enough to remove his 1 fatigue

"Aye, two more healing potions, making for three total."
He hands one to Chigaru, "Anybody else? If not, Wess is right. The plan to go after the bugbear next?"

Khel nodded and said, "Yeah, let's get this over with. But I don't want Nualia to get any reinforcement when we finally confront her. Let's take the other two first and then approach her. Also, we don't know if our raid has been discovered and they have escaped or went into a much fortified position."

Chigaru: You already had a couple of healing potions and you found one on Lyrie, so would you have chugged one to get rid of a wound. Need to be done within the golden hour to work.Aug 20, 2025 12:31 pm
OOC:
I'm guessing "you" is the royal you since Chigaru wasn't with the group who captured Lyrie lol. I'll chug one potion then.Aug 20, 2025 8:58 pm
Seeing no one else needing one besides Chigaru, Grim stows the other two healing potions in his pouch.
"Alright, let's do it than." Grabbing his items, the halfing heads toward Nualia's cronies.

Let's fight the two henchmen Orik and Bruthazmus first before we alert Nualia.Aug 22, 2025 5:42 pm

Your first challenge would be to get past the hell hounds without rousing them, or will your try to make a surprise assault on them before they have a chance to howl. They would be through the western door by the information you have. The two lieutenants would be through the southern door.

"Nothing, outside of us and that horse, should leave this place alive." Grim proclaims in a growl.
Looking at the spellcasters, "Are either of you able to silence those things?"

would we know if we skip the hounds for now, if their wails would reach us in the other room? Or if they're able to open doors? Would hate to get flanked.Aug 22, 2025 7:05 pm

According to Lyrie they're loud enough to be heard throughout the whole complex.load next
