2. Bucolic walk through the woods

Jan 15, 2023 11:08 am
It is dark when our heroes wake up to prepare themselves in order to leave at the first ray of light.
OOC:
This time I am waiting an answer from every player to make sure nobody's left behind on the story.

Albo did not sleep much throughout the night being tormented by dreams of the attack. He wakes up feeling terribly cold and wonders why he decided to join the party to go into the forest. He is just a little halfling bard after all, and although he proudly wears a dagger on his belt, he realises that he only ever takes it out of its sheath to cut slices of dried sausage at the local tavern. Good morning my friends, I think we should get going before dawn, the earlier we get going, the more chances we'll have to find these monsters.

Anne is excited too. "Let's go bust some heads." She replied after eating a piece of deer jerky from out of her backpack since they won't get a chance to eat breakfast before they leave.

I would need to know who will lead ; he will be responsible to not be lost in the woods.

OOC:
Anne doesn't know anything about these woods so she wouldn't be able to lead plus she doesn't know how to track.

"Albo if you can give me anything specific location wise that would be helpful otherwise I known of a few caves and other such locations around where we may find these crueltide elfs."
OOC:
Elias would be leading anything through the woods.

"I have some knowledge of the woods but it mostly comes from the folklore and bardic tales that I have learned. I have never ventured very far, but I can lead the way if you wish." Bosko feels scared about walking in front but he finds the courage to do it for the sake of all the halflings in the village.

"Let us get going then, I know that we should head West if we wish to reach Mount Strumpet. There are no paths in the forest so I hope we won't get lost..." Bosko leads the way.

Anne quietly follows everyone into the woods.

"I make a living off not getting lost, No paths one must pearn is always an exaggeration look there is a rabbits trail leading towards the town, likely it eats something you grow there." Elias sighs looking at the mountain, "Alas I've never did meet Strumpet, so who knows what marks her slopes."

Wyce wakes pleasantly surprised it is a peaceful awakening. As we head out, Elias is the more convincing woodsman. I'll follow him. I'll munch on rations as go.

Nog follows the group as they head into the woods, while not a stranger to the wilderness he's still gotten lost once or trice before.
OOC:

Beyond the ruined cheer of Newville, the group sets off toward mount Strumpet with Mayor Lucinda's simple map as guide. It is almost as if the landscape itself is against you. Within a few hours of setting out, the sky turns gray and clouds roll in from behind the mountain peak. Before long, a thick and heavy snow makes each step toward those dire peaks a more chilling prospect.

Traveling in the harsh cold is no easy task. Almost a foot of snow already rests on the ground and new flakes only compound the problem. Visibility is reduced, and travel is slow.

@KoldikSteelskin I need a Survival check (wisdom) DC 14

"Please everyone, take these," Elias says grabbing some branches and creating makeshift snowshoes,
"if you put them on your feet they should keep you on top of the snow."

Anne puts on the Arctic snow boots and thanks Elias. "They are very snug and cozy." She says.
Jan 18, 2023 3:54 am
Wyce also tries the snow shoes.

Anne hugs her arms around herself and begins to shiver. "It's...c-chilly out here." She says.
