2.1 Chapter 1: Into the Stolen Lands

Not sure where this fits in but Dalia will shoot the loud one in the face

Dalia's bolt drops the the bandit to his knees. "Elmo!" an unseen voice. A shadowy figure bobs out of the foliage and fires her short bow at Octavius before diving back into cover.

An unceremoniously arrow thuds into Octavius

Round 2

I'll silently command Filbert to use his tremorsense to figure out where that sneaky bandit went and then needle dart her if I can.

Filbert raises a mighty claw and drives it into the ground with unnatural focus.

His eyes widen. "The bandit is behind us!" turning to point towards tall dark figure charging down the approach used to sneak into the camp "Metal the Bandit! Do it quick!"

I definitely metal that bandit

Roll your attack then?

Oh my mistake

Also, Filbert rolled a Nat one by the way (thumbs-up)

With lightning speed Silene turns at the running dark figure incanting hot metal shards to leap from her finger. In the depth of the early morning light the figure dives to the ground, metal deflecting off her armor.

Sparky SQUACKs as he dips sharply to avoid the spray of shards.

"It me!" snarls Jeathal from the dirt.

I become very stern with Filbert about remembering where allies are vs newly hidden foes.

"Get to the sky and spot these clowns" commands Ralf.

As he wonders over to hide behind Silene Ralf shouts "Come out! Come out! wherever your are! Uncle Ralfy wants to Play!"

Sparky raises to the sky, but doesn't call out.

Dalia and Octavius are up



Also new marker system

Octavius stalks through the forest in the peaking dawn. Leaves rustle and the chorus of people echo off the tree. However no target is achieved. Steeling himself Octavius draws his sword and shield

Dalia reloads her crossbow, moves up to stay with the party and makes ready to shoot any bandits that choose to engage
