Since the covering of tracks is already taken care of, Zaiashi will be a good little priest and pray.
While the rest of the group covers their tracks and prepare for the trip ahead Zaiashi finds a quiet place to pray.
OOC:
so that would be a plain d20, right?
OOC:
ouch

The DC to track the group this first day will be 22.
OOC:
@ChrShr, the praying activity would be a Religion check, so you can add your Wisdom modifier to the total of your check, unless you can justify praying with another attribute.
Your first night is spent without any problems, you can regain your spell slots and missing HP. As you prepare to leave in the morning, you spot in the distance three horsemen coming your way. They are not coming from Northminster, but they are heading in that direction. They seem to have also spotted you and are coming your way, though they do not look hostile. You have a few moment to prepare yourselves before you can start to talk (or fight).

Scarfs doesn't do anything special besides riding Pinto near the wagon unless some has special in mind.
Jun 21, 2024 3:51 am
Zariana bundles herself up in her cloak and heads forward to talk to the riders. "What direction shall I say we're heading and from whence have we come?" She asks the others quickly as she puts her best smile on.
OOC:
Directions other than where we've come from and where we're actually going.

Ugost give a quick suggestion before slipping out of sight. Don't bring it up but if they ask then just say the next town up the road or let Belton handle it. and he prompts Belton to provide Zariana with the name.

Oozing through the cracks of the wagon he hides himself out of sight of the riders. Hiding under the driver seat, supplikes, or any other area that will hold him
OOC:
Bagh, lousy rolls :P

Vuraz will greet the guards, however he is wary of them.
Jun 21, 2024 2:25 pm
OOC:
well that would be +3... So it would be 7...That's not much of an improvement, sorry I guess my god is pissed at me.
After an uneasy praying session Zaiashi rejoins the group and feels a little uneasy after seeing the horsemen but joins Zariana.

As Vuraz greets them, they will wave at you, finally acknowledging you. They finally address you. "Hi there. We've been urgently called back to Northminsters, some dangerous criminals have escaped. Have you noticed anything or anyone unusual?"

Yep. 'Note'. That is the specs I have written on the character sheet for Pinto too. Of course, wanted to up the HP but I didn't.
Riding Horse (Pinto) Large, Beast
16 STR (+3), 12 DEX (+1), 12 CON (+1), 2 INT (-4), 10 WIS (+0), 6 CHA (-2)
AC 10, HP 19 (3d10+3; bloodied 9), Speed 60'
Proficiency +2, Maneuver DC 13, Passive Perception 10
Hooves. Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5', one target. Hit: 1d6+1 bludgeoning damage
Innocently looking Scarfs with sad eyes calls out with an odd accent in her voice, "I'm no criminal! But the guardsman that secretly traded me for this beast should be. It is nice but not nearly as much as I traded for! It doesn't fly no matter how hard I try. Those mothers of pearls were dear to me." She portrays and innocent women with lacking knowledge taken advantage of.

"And now I hope that he suffers greatly to his superiors about losing his horse and whatever story he concocts."

She adds on, "But that is rule of trades, I can't get my mother of pearls back."

She attempts to direct all attention her way and make the party look more innocent.

"It went like this" She says from horseback and with a word to she changed into the guardsman. She then portrays a story of him taking advantage of her in trade for Pinto. She makes him looks rather sintered and threatening to force her to trade. "You see I had no choice, but a trade is final." She makes sure the guardsman image is close but not the same as the others she has seen.

"He knew among my peoples that is the way. Our people seal agreements with images." She makes it appears she is from someplace distant. A foreign culture.
OOC:
Scarfs does what she has done for so long. She portrays another person. Just not the normal ones she has done before. She should get Oscars for her work. Scarfs is an actress (Charlatan) among other things. She still favors "Mistress Morgana". Who knows, who she portrayed while in the cult. She doesn't remember. She has been more herself among the party. Party has already seen her do a similar trick to this.

Besides that, roll could be for deception (+4) on the dice roll.

Mentally face palming at Scarfs "subtle denial" when no one asked about the horse the ooze listens intently as his hiding prevents much direct observation. Maybe they offended some god and are being punished . . .
Jun 24, 2024 5:48 am
Zaiashi bites his tongue while listening to Scarfs then interjects, "We have been on the road for a while but have not seen anyone out of place. Are we in danger from those criminals?"
Jun 24, 2024 2:29 pm
Zariana nods, "We've only been here for the night but the road has been quiet m'lord." She says showing the officer some deference, "Is it safe from where you've come?" Zariana asks pointing back up the road, "We'd really rather not run into a bunch of bandits."

The three riders are a bit surprised by Scarf's "sob story", they sort of only half-listen to what the rest of the group is saying... Surprisingly enough, one of them seems sympathetic though. "If you give us your name, we might be able to see about getting your mother of pearls back..."

He gets nudged by the other two riders who take out their bows, point them at you, and glare at their more gullible companion. "We're going to have to ask you all to drop your weapons and come with us back to Northminster..."

Seeing his other two companions, the gullible one also takes out his bow, but is obviously confused as to what is actually going on...

This sounds like initiative time!

Riders' initiative.

Trying to avoid combat.

Sad eyes Scarfs says in her odd accent as she semi clumsy dismounts from Pinto, "I heard stories." (reference to those taken.) "Please just take the beast and let the wind go as it may. (another words for let her go free.)

Appears their words have scared her some as she offers the reins of Pinto in hand to them. (Wearing padded armor with a shortsword and dagger combo on her belt.)

Scarf, I'm only missing your initiative. If anyone is attempting to smooth the situation over, now's the time to give me a roll, but it's going to be difficult, I say you roll with disadvantage.

We'll pretend Garbuffel is sleeping in the bedrolls during this combat, somehow, this seems appropriate for his character... :P
