Saris anchors himself into the ground as he pushes against the boulder with all his might

Not only do you manage to dislodge the boulder, your aim is perfect. The boulder rolls down the small hill right at the moment the orc turns his back to it. He doesn't even notice until the last possible second. He lets out a stragled yell as the boulder crashes into his chest, crushing him completely.
OOC:
Nice roll. One orc left.

Herod rushes up to the last one, channeling his energy inside and attacks the orc as quickly as he can. He does a spinning kick, striking with the quarterstaff in one hand, and attempts to kick with each of his feet in mid-air.
OOC:
Using a ki point, Herod uses Flurry of Blows against the final orc.

1d20+5 : (2) + 5 = 7

Herod leaps down the rocky outcropping and launches a flurry of blows against the remaining orc. The orc puts up a valiant last stand but he is quickly overwhelmed by the fury of Herod's assault.

After a few moments the combat is over and you are alone amongst a pile of orc and wolf corpses.

What do you do?

Herod is going to search the various orc corpses for loot, as well as search their campsite.

He is going to do it sneakily, if possible. Herod doesn't want to be found by any orcs that may have been out for one reason or another.

Rolls

Stealth - (1d20+5)

(14) + 5 = 19

Perception - (1d20+4)

(9) + 4 = 13

Investigation - (1d20+1)

(1) + 1 = 2

Nyx joins you and the two of you do a quick scouting mission but neither of you find any missing orcs. It looks as though you got them all.

When you turn back and begin to search the bodies you find 127 gold pieces and 45 silver. The orcs have some provisions and othwr things but they are all crudely made and you doubt that they would be worth taking back with you.

Nyx begins skinning the Dire Wolves and after a short while the other hunters arrive and help her.

Once they have finished, Nyx takes you to a stream where you wash off the blood from your armour.

Camp here or head back to Berda? she asks.

It is well into the evening at this point.

Saris looks about the dead bodies a bit disappointed he did not really do much but happy with the completed mission.

It may be best to move away from here just in case another parry comes by

Ve shud comp hhherre. Huunterrs, can ju tek ker ov ze watches? Ai need to medeeetet end rrrecober.

Herod is visibly and audibly exhausted.

@Snowy: I'm not gonna lie. This encounter went waaaaaaaaaay differently than I had planned.
Jun 4, 2018 12:01 am
Nyx leads you and the other hunters a small distance upwind of where the orc camp and you make camp next to a large fallen Berda tree. The hunters set up a watch rotation leaving the two of you to rest for the night.
OOC:
Congratulations, you have levelled up to level 3

The night passes uneventfully. The next day you head back to Berda Trading Post. It takes you most of the day.

As soon as you get back you make your way to the inn. It is currently deserted except for a single table where a dragonborn and a humanish looking creature are sharing a meal. The dragonborn has a beautiful blue bow and the human. The human appears to be in possession of a green shard, identical to the one you fought in the dungeon a few days ago. As Herod approaches, his coin begins to glow a soft golden colour and Saris Bracers begin to grow. The armour weaves and transforms into beautiful mithril gauntlets.
OOC:
Please welcome our new companions Sovelin and Tomas.
What do you do?
Jun 7, 2018 12:36 pm
So, Tomas what are you planning on doing with that? You seemed to be talking to it earlier... Sovelin says not noticing the newcomers.
OOC:
Also hi everyone :D

The pale, human-looking man in simple chainmail armor stops fiddling with the shard in his hands and looks over to his dragonborn companion. His stocky proportions suggest he's had some sort of physical profession previously and a battered quarterstaff is leaned on the table next to him, the end on the ground held in place by a deflated-looking pack which is probably mostly empty. As you get closer, you notice the tips of his ears come to a point, rather than rounding off. He turns his hand over and sets the glowing shard down on the table, folding one hand on top of the other.

"I'm... not sure. It can speak. Said we saved it and then it helped us get out of the cave. I was talking to it some more while you were learning how to use your bow and it did something to me. My thoughts are... more complicated now. So is life."
OOC:
HCCraft, there are a few more posts you should read in our duo thread.

Also, hello everybody. You can thank Arina for saving you from having to read some of former Tomas's dialogue. If you would care for a sample, feel free to check out the other thread. Tomas doesn't actually look as glamorous as in the photo. His beard is still growing in (not due to puberty, Tomas doesn't look that young) and his hair is in an awkward stage between short and long lengths. Take the picture to be what he'll eventually look like, after some time. Could you please physically describe your character too? Excited to play with you all.

Upon seeing this interesting group, Herod being tired and his accent showing, he says, Vell met, mai frriends! Mai nem eess Herrrrodd, and zees eess mai frriend, Sa-rrreees. Ve jest errived frrrom e mishon for ze town.

He then notices the glowing in his pant pocket, and he pulls the coin out and flips it in the air and catches it.

Eeet seems zat ve ar ment to verk to-gezer. Ju shood come vith mee.

He stashes the coin in his pants pocket again and then walks out of the inn to find Bella Fraught to discuss the success of the mission.

Talking to Tomas Its true, you do seem to have more understandable speech, anyways let’s go with the somewhat interesting people. As far as my original reason for going into the Wild...I think this bow and your gem are proof enough of how strong we are, I will have to see if it is enough later.

Hmm I want to ask that man about his coin, but perhaps it is better to get to know him first
OOC:
didnt realize there were more posts. My bad :p

OOC:
Are both your characters from the Sapphire Isles rather than Immerald? If so, Tomas is from the Sapphire Isles as well. As he's looking at you two, let me know if either you carry any clothes or distinct adornments that would mark you as his potential countrymen.
Tomas gives the tall, bald man and their companion a once over. Looking around the empty room, he shrugs.

"Might as well. I'm Tomas, this is Sovelin, you're Herod, and this is...?"

He looks at the bald man's companion as he gets up, ready to follow the duo.

Theeesse eeess mai frrriend Sa-rrrreees. Herod says, looking back briefly and pointing to his companion as he continues to move in looking for Bella.

You arrive at the headquaters of the Western Trading Company just as they appear to be closing for the day. The two marines stationed outside recognise you and allow you to enter unescorted. You enter the trading post and take the stairs to the second floor. You knock on the door to Ms. Fraught's office and you hear her deep commanding voice.

Enter!

Herod walks in and says Hhhellooo, Belllau. Ve verrre successful. Ze hhhomesteads dos not need to vorry about ze orrrcs.
