Setting The Trap

Think of this like designing a series of 'Home Alone' traps for a Sweeper being led this way by Hilmir and Tanya. As long as the components are reasonable (or something that can be found in the woods), feel free to suggest it. It may just require a roll or two depending on complexity etc, but in this area you have access to big logs and rocks of various sizes.

Have fun with it! You don't have to come up with all three traps, the NPCs will build off of whatever initial concepts Wenlan has.

Okay, the plan looks pretty solid :)

Ah yes, I know exactly what you mean. :)

None of you are sure how long it will be until the bait group is able to bring a Sweeper this way. What sort of things would Wenlan and crew try to prioritize once these traps are set? Is there any sort of lookout, signals/calls, etc you all may wish to establish? If the recruitment group is successful, some people may be heading your way to help as well. What should they do when they get there? Don't feel like you need to answer all of those or anything, just a few things to ponder if anything comes to mind.

Okay good to know. There's an understanding that this plan is dangerous, and the group warning others about a coming attack would encourage the youngsters to go in a different direction with some trusted members. The only people coming to assist would be those recruited for what could turn into a violent battle if the plan goes awry. That being said, some coming won't really have any applicable skills and could be designated as lookouts.

The weather is clear and pleasant, it actually hasn't been very cold the entire time Wenlan has been in these woods even in the evening, but a little windy in the clearing around the pit. It makes it a bit harder to hear others over a moderate distance, but those closeby are easily heard still it's not a hurricane or anything.
