OOC:
She is wearing a pouch attached to her belt that could contain material components. No focus or holy symbol as far as you can tell but without seeing her cast a spell, it's hard to say. She isn't armed, though.

Taz relayed her observation to the party via a careful whisper.

"What do you think? I don't like resorting to violence as a first recourse, but the messengers made it sound like their leaders weren't interested in compromise. We can try to take them by surprise, or make ourselves known and see if they'll talk." She looked from one face to the next, her own countenance heavy with concern.
Nov 13, 2021 3:35 pm
"As much as I dislike violence we may never have a chance like this again and as you say they seem very uninterested in a negotiated settlement." Narissa says quietly. She glances about to see if there are any obvious escape routes for the others.

"If they run, they'll likely head into the mine."
Nov 13, 2021 3:54 pm
"Ooh! Maybe a compromise?" Taz chirped softly, when Narissa espoused a similar disdain for violence. "Most of us can spread out and surround them. Then one of us walks out to try and talk to them. If they respond with violence, then the hidden ones can unload on them and still surprise them, maybe." She looked towards the dwarvenragonborn in particular for approval, as Arphaxad had seemed the most frustrated with slower approaches.
Nov 14, 2021 3:47 pm
"I doubt if one of us walks up we're going to have any surprise left."
Nov 14, 2021 5:04 pm
Taz nodded grimly in response to the tiefling.

"That is a risk," she agreed. "They may spot us all once one of us speaks up, no matter how well the rest try to hide. So."

She paused, and meet the glance of each one present.

"I would hate to see any of you hurt when we could have prevented it, but that's a concern no matter which way we decide," she said, looking towards Narissa at the last.

"I vote we surprise them and try to subdue them. We don't need to make things lethal unless they leave us no choice. What do the rest of you say?"

I guess you're the one who's gonna be talking to them lass? Arphaxad said after the hush mini-conference was concluded. Unless of course, someone else would volunteer...and don't look at me! I'd rather smash heads and be done with it...

"Given your ancestry Tas, that's not a bad idea," Belathor agrees with Arphaxad.

"I think we’re better off taking them by surprise," Narissa says quietly, "if one of us goes down there they’re likely to be the focus of all of their rage." She looks at the group her crimson eyes lingering on Taz, "And no one wants to see that."

"If we circle the clearing and come in from different directions that will likely add to the confusion." She points towards an area not far away.

"I can toss an ice knife at them when I get closer, that’ll be your signals to attack." She looks at the others, "Does that sound reasonable?"
OOC:
Assuming there is a general agreement she’ll wait for the others to move before stealthing in to her position. If she fails she’ll move quickly into range and toss the Ice Knife.

OOC:
do we have a map to see where each fae creature is located? so we don't bump into one of them unknowingly

OOC:
Once it gets to combat, I'd make a map. All the ones you can see are grouped together in the middle of the clearing near the cave entrance while you are hiding in the forest near the edge of the clearing

Narissa pulls in the magical energies she needs and summons a dagger made of frost an ice which she quickly tosses at the woman in the middle of the group. Once she’s done this she steps back behind cover and casts mages armour

As the group is still debating the best approach, Narissa sneaks closer to the clearing and suddenly fires off an ice spell at the elven woman among the fey creatures.
Apparently spotting the attack as it approaches, the woman waves her hand and the ice knife shatters in the air right in front of her , showering her, the fey leader and one of the messengers in tiny ice shards, that don't seem to do much damage, however.

As soon as Narissa's ice shard hits, all the group on the clearing turns towards her (and by extension her companions. They spot her but the others are still obscured in the thicker forest beyond the clearing.
The group of messengers you had been following reacts quickest and the rider and the one on foot that got hit by some of the ice splinter charge towards Narissa. The rider doesn't quite make it to her and throws its dagger at Narissa. The other moves up right next to her and tries to stab her with his dagger.
The third one just glares at Narissa and she suddenly feels her blood burning in her veins, making movement painful and slow.

OOC:
Alright, going through this bit by bit
Taz moves through the forest and then fires off a shot at the rider. The arrow hits and the rider does seem to take some serious damage but it's still alive and kicking.
The elven woman points at Narissa and shouts something at her in the strange sounding language that she and the fey were communicating in before. Narissa can't understand her but she still feels hurt by the words as they are clearly insulting.
OOC:
Vicious Mockery. Narissa, succeed at a DC12 Wisdom save or take 1D4 points of damage (rolled below)

The group of fey approach Narissa but don't attack her yet.
Arphaxad runs up to the closest of the fey and swings his axe at it. The weapon sinks deep into the creature and for a moment, it looks like he might stay on his feet but then he collapses, lying unmovingly on the floor as its blood drains into the ground around it.
OOC:
Messenger 2 is dead

OOC:
It's been a while since that post so I'll let Narissa decide if she wants to redo her turn or keep it as is.
