genghisdon: sure, recal Mab, that you got 20 gp last game, ok?
genghisdon: we are setting camp/going on watches?
genghisdon: or questioning a bandit?
Smon: It's about 5.15pm, one hour to dusk. Am I right that you killed the Sleeped brigands?
genghisdon: I always miss the end, i dunno
Goonergeezer: yea thats where we finished off last time: Garrick: this close i recon we should set a cold camp, no point in drawing attention to ourselves
genghisdon: M "ok"
genghisdon: any loot on the bandits?
Smon: Yup
genghisdon: & can Flynn track them for the last hour?
Smon: You want to track the one that got away?
genghisdon: M "there may be more about, or their camp could be useful to us"
genghisdon: yes
Smon: The undergrowth he ran into is very dense, you'd need to leave your horses behind to track him.
genghisdon: hmmm..."what was our plan for the horses at the caves?"
Smon: /roll 5d6+3d8
Smon Rolls 5d6+3x8 and gets:

genghisdon: cool
corum: hey did I mjss much?
Smon: no
genghisdon: 9 gp each
genghisdon: 1 for a donation to someone
Mablir Dorlig: could Shite Hawk follow the bandit and we keep pace on horses?
Smon: You only have a few minutes before the Sleeped bandits wake up.
genghisdon: maybe mab, for some armor
Goonergeezer: garrick: shall we split up amd flynn, morgana and the hawk track the bandit and the rest of us look for a campo site?
genghisdon: Morganna disarms them & binds them
genghisdon: @ lightning "can you follow the last bandit?"
Smon: OK, I'll assume Hawkes outfitted you with plenty of rope, you tie them up.
genghisdon: (i have some rope myself, but cool)
Smon: The Hawk flies off into the trees and disappears from view.
Smon: /roll 1d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets:
4,
corum: flynn "we should stick together in these parts"
genghisdon: once the bandits are tied up "help me switch armor boys, and I'll catch the last one"
Mablir Dorlig: think we should kill them rather than leave living foes behind
genghisdon: or not
Smon: The bandits start to waken (10 minutes since Morganna sleeped them).
Goonergeezer: Garrick: look we have bandits rope and nearby tree's, lets just cut out the expense to the city and hang them now
Smon: "Gunr..." the leader opens his eyes and regards you.
genghisdon: "they are just bandits, had we surrendered they probably would've just robbed us, not killed us"
Goonergeezer: Garrick@ leader good morning my friend, not a good day to be you is it?
genghisdon: "good morning sir bandit"
Smon: "That's right" nods the leader. "I don't like killin'."
Smon: GM: It's 5.15pm, like I just said. :\
corum: flynn "who are you working for?
Goonergeezer: Garrick@ leader thats right the crossbow bolts you fired at us were feather tipped wasn't they
Smon: The bandit looks at Flynn. "The boss." He looks to Garrick: "Your Elf were castin' a spell at us."
genghisdon: "yes, i was...who is the boos?"
genghisdon: boss
Smon: All four are now awake. They look over at the two corpses. "Poor Bill and Ted..."
Goonergeezer: garrick: so what do you think we should do with you then?
corum: excellent!
Smon: "The Boss o' the Castle. The Big Cheese."
Smon: LOL @corum
genghisdon: heh
Smon: He looks at Garrick: "Let us go? Or ask us to help you?"
genghisdon: "that's not all that descriptive, can you tell us more?"
Smon: He shrugs. "Don't matter. He lives up in the Castle, behind the Fog. Reckon you can't go there."
genghisdon: "if we let you go, what will you do?"
corum: "I reckon you 'll take us there" through the fog"
corum: flynn @ leader "and if you dont y friend garrick will kill you"
Smon: He shrugs. @Morganna "Go back and tell the Boss that settin' ambushes on the Old Castle Track is a damn stupid idea. We lost four men to adventurers just last week."
corum: @ garrick "wont you friend?"
Goonergeezer: garrick: very very slowly
genghisdon: "do you have a camp nearby?"
Smon: He shrugs. "It ain't up to me. The Fog don't let just anyone through. Just special geezers, like me and my mates."
Smon: "Camp? Naw, we were going to go back to the Castle when it got dark."
corum: "ay but we will be with you, and so you will lead us through!"
Smon: He looks at Flynn sceptically. "We'll see."
genghisdon: "how many other bandits serve the boss?"
Smon: The brigand looks thoughtful. "Well, er, scratch Bill and Ted... maybe forty, forty-five."
genghisdon: "thanks...how do you feel about robbing monsters?"
Smon: "Fine by me."
genghisdon: "so you louts will lead us into the mouths of madness?"
Smon: "Sure. The ones below the Fog, anyway."
genghisdon: "in exchange for your lives & a share in what we earn?"
genghisdon: "what do you guys think?"
Smon: The brigand brightens up. "Sounds good! I were thinking about gettin' a new boss, anyways."
genghisdon: (i meant the party, but good)
Mablir Dorlig: Can we trust someone who turns sides so easily? I say kill them
Smon: You said genghisdon: "in exchange for your lives & a share in what we earn?"
Goonergeezer: garrick: i think if these lads prove themselves today then they should all get a fair share of gold
genghisdon: yes
genghisdon: Flynn?
corum: flynn laughs and pats corak on the back "does your god not preach forgiveness?"
corum: flynn always agrees with org
genghisdon: "sounds like we have a deal..you'll remain bound until we get to the mouths, but we will arm you there, ok?"
corum: morg
Mablir Dorlig: My family were killed by bandits - my god has no problem with seeking vengeance and justice
genghisdon: (morg blushes)
Smon: The leader frowns at Morganna. "Better loosen our bonds - there's all kinds of critters between here and the Castle, we may need to run."
Smon: "The Spiders, the Harpy, the Giant Ticks, the Ogre..."
corum: flynn @bandits "we will cut your bonds when we see fit and not until"#
genghisdon: "I'm adraid you will need to count on us to protect you through the night, else you might run monster or no"
Smon: "And that's if the Goblins from the Manse ain't roamin' abroad."
genghisdon: afraid
genghisdon: "don't worry, we'll keep watches"
genghisdon: (does lightning come back?)
Smon: brb
corum: flynn belly laughs " we had you subdued within a minute fierce bandits!"
genghisdon: i gather their weapons into a pile "lets make camp"
corum: ((hows the snow in wales mab?))
Goonergeezer: Garrick: i wil take first watch tonight
Smon: Lightning comes back around 5.40pm, having lost the trail of the fleeing brigand.
Mablir Dorlig: (Nothing down by me but a trip to Merthyr tomorrow if I can)
Smon: You're camping here?
corum: flynn will search for a nice spot
Goonergeezer: no we are going to look for a campsite a fair distance away from here
Smon: Brigand: "All kinds of critters roam the Track at night..."
Smon: /roll 1d100
Smon rolls 1d100 and gets:
42,
Smon: The land is hilly, rugged, and heavily forested with dense undergrowth, good camp sites are few.
corum: flynn @ group perhaps we should press on a while, I see no safe resting places
genghisdon: "m will bury the dead bandits if they will help"
genghisdon: "lets just camp on the path/road"
Smon: GM: It looks like the land rises to a ridgeline to the north. The bandits help Morganna bury the two dead in the soggy ground.

genghisdon: "well, Tomas, let us worry about monsters on the track, you just help us in the mouths tommorow"
genghisdon: 1 in 6
genghisdon: though you'd mod that if the enemy has bonus surprise
Smon: GM: Flynn senses a slight tremor in the ground, as heavy footsteps approach from the west.
genghisdon: (tell us please?)
corum: flynn @ group we have copany
genghisdon: does lighthning see what it is?
corum: (having cop probs) brb
genghisdon: M readies her bow

genghisdon: cops suck
corum: flynn readies xbow
genghisdon: oh!
Goonergeezer: @ gm are we still mounted?
Mablir Dorlig: Corak readies his sling
genghisdon: yes
Smon: Flynn has just time to alert the others, when from round the bend in the track comes an Enormous ogre, carrying a basket on his back, a giant spiked club in his hands. Two pretty fair-haired maids of 16 years or so peek their heads out from the wicker basket, looking frightened.
Goonergeezer: garrick readies his lance for a charge
Smon: You're obviously not mounted, no.
Smon: Given you were digging graves, prepping to camp, etc,
genghisdon: M in orcish "Halt brute & give up your captives, else we shall smite thee!"
Mablir Dorlig: brb
Goonergeezer: Garrick draws his sword and shield
genghisdon: (get on yer horse & lance it!)
Smon: The ogre sizes you all up, grinning.

Goonergeezer: damn i was gonna roll a 20 there, but the moment is gone now :-(
Goonergeezer: i dont mind that, i should last 3-4 hits
genghisdon: nah, u store it up

Smon: sorry about that, mostly back now
Goonergeezer: np
Mablir Dorlig: not that I recall
corum: (want to use it on my 1st lev party just dont want a TPK)
Smon: GM: So Morganna and Corak shoot & sling at it, Garrick charges at it, swings and misses as it steps back.
corum: Flynn missed
genghisdon: (my players have fought algoids...pretty dangerous..L1 is pretty much auto TPK)
genghisdon: (pretty lame to boot, haven't used on in years)
Smon: I just checked my PHB - sling is not a permitted Cleric weapon, Mablir. God is angry with you now.
genghisdon: "ogre smash?)
genghisdon: (LOL, thought it was a deity specific weapon)
corum: (ok, a spider will have to do then)
genghisdon: (algoid can be bad ass even for VHL chr)
genghisdon: how about he threw a hammer instead?
Mablir Dorlig: (must have been thinking of UA)
genghisdon: (or B/X or 2e, ect)
Smon: So, with the -3 non-prof penalty Corak misses, Morganna hit for 7 dmg.
genghisdon: oh, burn

genghisdon: (and Corak, he maced it, right?)
corum: (I missed that bit sorry)
Smon: Corak threw an irreligious slingstone
Smon: Since he didn't change tactics, it was at -7 (-4 cover, -3 non-prof) - would have missed anyway though.
corum: flynn will charge with long swordif thats ok?
genghisdon: ugh
Smon: Next round, fine
genghisdon: to -7

genghisdon: Morganna circles it a bit more (to rear flank position) firing
corum: stabs himself in the throat?
Goonergeezer: garrick shouting "Aole let a prisoner go to help us"
Smon: You can't circle it, you're on a 15' wide track with very dense undergrowth either side.
Smon: A druid with magic powers could maybe circle it.
genghisdon: "we got this brute Garrick"
genghisdon: (ok, she stays on it's flank then)
Mablir Dorlig: (Reverted to mace but missed)
Smon: Movement off-track is 1/10 standard.
genghisdon: jungle-like i guess
Smon: The ogre & Garrick are 30' from where the rest of you stand, no one else has meleed it.
genghisdon: charge w mace mab
Smon: Garrick, your turn
genghisdon: i move up/around some, no?
Goonergeezer: initiative?
Smon: You can melee it if you want Morganna.

Smon: You have to go wuthin 5' of it if you stay on the track.
genghisdon: simon didn't see you change Mab)
genghisdon: melee
genghisdon: on flank
Smon: You can't flank it, at least not in the same round you melee it. Do you want to charge it or not?
Smon: Anyway can I please have Garrick's action.
genghisdon: simon, i moved last round, how far can it be?
genghisdon: but if charge is needed, fine
Goonergeezer: @ gm is it initiative?

Smon rolls 1d6 and gets:
4,corum: flynn "we should stick together in these parts"
genghisdon: once the bandits are tied up "help me switch armor boys, and I'll catch the last one"
Mablir Dorlig: think we should kill them rather than leave living foes behind
genghisdon: or not
Smon: The bandits start to waken (10 minutes since Morganna sleeped them).
Goonergeezer: Garrick: look we have bandits rope and nearby tree's, lets just cut out the expense to the city and hang them now
Smon: "Gunr..." the leader opens his eyes and regards you.
genghisdon: "they are just bandits, had we surrendered they probably would've just robbed us, not killed us"
Goonergeezer: Garrick@ leader good morning my friend, not a good day to be you is it?
genghisdon: "good morning sir bandit"
Smon: "That's right" nods the leader. "I don't like killin'."
Smon: GM: It's 5.15pm, like I just said. :\
corum: flynn "who are you working for?
Goonergeezer: Garrick@ leader thats right the crossbow bolts you fired at us were feather tipped wasn't they
Smon: The bandit looks at Flynn. "The boss." He looks to Garrick: "Your Elf were castin' a spell at us."
genghisdon: "yes, i was...who is the boos?"
genghisdon: boss
Smon: All four are now awake. They look over at the two corpses. "Poor Bill and Ted..."
Goonergeezer: garrick: so what do you think we should do with you then?
corum: excellent!
Smon: "The Boss o' the Castle. The Big Cheese."
Smon: LOL @corum
genghisdon: heh
Smon: He looks at Garrick: "Let us go? Or ask us to help you?"
genghisdon: "that's not all that descriptive, can you tell us more?"
Smon: He shrugs. "Don't matter. He lives up in the Castle, behind the Fog. Reckon you can't go there."
genghisdon: "if we let you go, what will you do?"
corum: "I reckon you 'll take us there" through the fog"
corum: flynn @ leader "and if you dont y friend garrick will kill you"
Smon: He shrugs. @Morganna "Go back and tell the Boss that settin' ambushes on the Old Castle Track is a damn stupid idea. We lost four men to adventurers just last week."
corum: @ garrick "wont you friend?"
Goonergeezer: garrick: very very slowly
genghisdon: "do you have a camp nearby?"
Smon: He shrugs. "It ain't up to me. The Fog don't let just anyone through. Just special geezers, like me and my mates."
Smon: "Camp? Naw, we were going to go back to the Castle when it got dark."
corum: "ay but we will be with you, and so you will lead us through!"
Smon: He looks at Flynn sceptically. "We'll see."
genghisdon: "how many other bandits serve the boss?"
Smon: The brigand looks thoughtful. "Well, er, scratch Bill and Ted... maybe forty, forty-five."
genghisdon: "thanks...how do you feel about robbing monsters?"
Smon: "Fine by me."
genghisdon: "so you louts will lead us into the mouths of madness?"
Smon: "Sure. The ones below the Fog, anyway."
genghisdon: "in exchange for your lives & a share in what we earn?"
genghisdon: "what do you guys think?"
Smon: The brigand brightens up. "Sounds good! I were thinking about gettin' a new boss, anyways."
genghisdon: (i meant the party, but good)
Mablir Dorlig: Can we trust someone who turns sides so easily? I say kill them
Smon: You said genghisdon: "in exchange for your lives & a share in what we earn?"
Goonergeezer: garrick: i think if these lads prove themselves today then they should all get a fair share of gold
genghisdon: yes
genghisdon: Flynn?
corum: flynn laughs and pats corak on the back "does your god not preach forgiveness?"
corum: flynn always agrees with org
genghisdon: "sounds like we have a deal..you'll remain bound until we get to the mouths, but we will arm you there, ok?"
corum: morg
Mablir Dorlig: My family were killed by bandits - my god has no problem with seeking vengeance and justice
genghisdon: (morg blushes)
Smon: The leader frowns at Morganna. "Better loosen our bonds - there's all kinds of critters between here and the Castle, we may need to run."
Smon: "The Spiders, the Harpy, the Giant Ticks, the Ogre..."
corum: flynn @bandits "we will cut your bonds when we see fit and not until"#
genghisdon: "I'm adraid you will need to count on us to protect you through the night, else you might run monster or no"
Smon: "And that's if the Goblins from the Manse ain't roamin' abroad."
genghisdon: afraid
genghisdon: "don't worry, we'll keep watches"
genghisdon: (does lightning come back?)
Smon: brb
corum: flynn belly laughs " we had you subdued within a minute fierce bandits!"
genghisdon: i gather their weapons into a pile "lets make camp"
corum: ((hows the snow in wales mab?))
Goonergeezer: Garrick: i wil take first watch tonight
Smon: Lightning comes back around 5.40pm, having lost the trail of the fleeing brigand.
Mablir Dorlig: (Nothing down by me but a trip to Merthyr tomorrow if I can)
Smon: You're camping here?
corum: flynn will search for a nice spot
Goonergeezer: no we are going to look for a campsite a fair distance away from here
Smon: Brigand: "All kinds of critters roam the Track at night..."
Smon: /roll 1d100
Smon rolls 1d100 and gets:
42,Smon: The land is hilly, rugged, and heavily forested with dense undergrowth, good camp sites are few.
corum: flynn @ group perhaps we should press on a while, I see no safe resting places
genghisdon: "m will bury the dead bandits if they will help"
genghisdon: "lets just camp on the path/road"
Smon: GM: It looks like the land rises to a ridgeline to the north. The bandits help Morganna bury the two dead in the soggy ground.

genghisdon: 1 in 6
genghisdon: though you'd mod that if the enemy has bonus surprise
Smon: GM: Flynn senses a slight tremor in the ground, as heavy footsteps approach from the west.

Goonergeezer: @ gm are we still mounted?
Mablir Dorlig: Corak readies his sling
genghisdon: yes
Smon: Flynn has just time to alert the others, when from round the bend in the track comes an Enormous ogre, carrying a basket on his back, a giant spiked club in his hands. Two pretty fair-haired maids of 16 years or so peek their heads out from the wicker basket, looking frightened.
Goonergeezer: garrick readies his lance for a charge
Smon: You're obviously not mounted, no.
Smon: Given you were digging graves, prepping to camp, etc,
genghisdon: M in orcish "Halt brute & give up your captives, else we shall smite thee!"
Mablir Dorlig: brb
Goonergeezer: Garrick draws his sword and shield
genghisdon: (get on yer horse & lance it!)
Smon: The ogre sizes you all up, grinning.

Smon: sorry about that, mostly back now
Goonergeezer: np
Mablir Dorlig: not that I recall
corum: (want to use it on my 1st lev party just dont want a TPK)
Smon: GM: So Morganna and Corak shoot & sling at it, Garrick charges at it, swings and misses as it steps back.
corum: Flynn missed
genghisdon: (my players have fought algoids...pretty dangerous..L1 is pretty much auto TPK)
genghisdon: (pretty lame to boot, haven't used on in years)
Smon: I just checked my PHB - sling is not a permitted Cleric weapon, Mablir. God is angry with you now.
genghisdon: "ogre smash?)
genghisdon: (LOL, thought it was a deity specific weapon)
corum: (ok, a spider will have to do then)
genghisdon: (algoid can be bad ass even for VHL chr)
genghisdon: how about he threw a hammer instead?
Mablir Dorlig: (must have been thinking of UA)
genghisdon: (or B/X or 2e, ect)

Goonergeezer: garrick shouting "Aole let a prisoner go to help us"
Smon: You can't circle it, you're on a 15' wide track with very dense undergrowth either side.
Smon: A druid with magic powers could maybe circle it.
genghisdon: "we got this brute Garrick"
genghisdon: (ok, she stays on it's flank then)
Mablir Dorlig: (Reverted to mace but missed)
Smon: Movement off-track is 1/10 standard.
