Chapter 2.1 - A Request for Aid

[frogman210]

Glad to hear it! Jo'Davan claps Spira on the shoulder.

I would imaging if these are what we find this far out what we are looking for could be much larger...

[info] Perception: 21
     There does not appear to be any other threats around at the moment. However, you do notice that the thralls appear to have come from the same direction as the camp. [/info]

[frogman210]

well, I am ready to continue on if the rest of you are?

[pringerbeam]

     You continue on your way towards the logging camp. The sun slowly begins to creep its way down towards the horizon and quite soon you are in the twilight hours. You figure you must be quite close to the camp as you begin to come across stumps of trees that appear to have been cut down and not long after you come to an area that has been more thoroughly cleared.

     Ahead in the dim light you can see a lodge lit from within by lamplight. Crowded around the front of the lodge are more thralls trying to claw their way through a makeshift barricade erected in from of the entrance which appears to have had its from doors either battered down or torn off. Several loggers stand behind the barricade armed with wood axes and other improvised weapons, trying to keep the thralls at bay. In their stalemate neither side has noticed your arrival.

[info]Initiative (Perception)

As you are unnoticed, you may also attempt Initiative (Stealth)

Light level is Dim Light, lanterns at the entrance to the lodge shed Light within 30 ft[/info]

Moving swiftly to action, Spira closes the distance to the thralls so they are within range of a thrown object. Pulling a small flask of red liquid from her belt she hurls it into the group of thralls.

     The bomb arcs through the air and explodes on contact with the thral, sending gobbets of alchemists fire in all directions. The fire takes to the thralls quite well and the ones set aflame let out a rattling screech.

     The Thralls, now alerted to your presence, begin to turn and shamble towards your party. One of them lurches and begins to shuffle towards the party but barely makes it in reach of Spira. The next is close enough to approach Spira and flails at her with grasping hands but it fails to connect.

[okay]Thrall 1 misses Spira[/okay]

     Helba rides out from the rear of the party on her goblin dog, aiming and firing at one of the damaged thralls while her mount tries to bite at the nearest Thrall.

     Another Thrall peels off from the barricade to shamble towards the closest party member and claws at Helba. It snags the goblin with a sweeping swing trailing yellow puffs of pollen. Helba appears dazed from the blow as her head seems to tilt aimlessly despite the immediate peril she is in.

Seeing what's going on Jo'Davan takes his first action going three squares to the right, and two squares up. Then he readies (holds? Not sure what the right verbage is) A flurry of blows attack for the next enemy creature to come within range.
