Jack nods, "It is done," he says, and then turns around to check on the other cat bodies.

The cat has nothing in it pockets and you find no form of pouches anywhere on it. Aside from a mace, a javelin, and a set of cloaked armor, it has nothing. While searching however, you do find a bald patch on the underside of its arm, as if it was shaved and a brand in the shape of two crossed bones.

Searching the other small one, you find the same; an itemless cat—aside for the two weapons and armor—with the same shaved patch two bones cross.

Searching the larger one, reveals it is actually a dog. It has nothing in it's pockets and only seem to own a battleaxe, a shortbow, and a set of cloaked armor. It has the same shaved spot but instead of the two crossed bones, it is a brand of two fish skeletons forming a circle.

I couldn't find anything dealing with what happens to monsters that drop to 0, only players, so I'll be using what I'm most familiar with. That being the case, unless it is otherwie stated, all damage players do will be lethal.

Marvin feels a paw on his shoulder and gets a smile from Lexie "Don't be so glum; we are good dogs, we protected our home."

"Hey! One of these is a dog... and they all have brands. Anyone want to see if they recognize them?"

Wastl calls to the others: Hey, look at this! and points at the shaved spot on the cat's body.
Have any of you seen something like this?
OOC:
or has Wastl?
Too bad they're dead and we couldn't question them. This could be gang sign so they were probably not alone.
OOC:
Fair enough!

HypCo sent a note to Naatkinson
OOC:
Nope, nobody has seen anything resembling the brands before today.

"Yeah they said there were six of 'em."
OOC:
Champ tries his best, but sometimes he's slow on the uptake.

Jack waves Champ's comment away, "A common intimidation tactic."
Sep 21, 2017 4:32 pm
"Well it didn't scare us!" Champ says, proudly puffing out his chest and brandishing his rapier.

"If dogs were working with cats I'm not sure if they'd give any answers." Lexie tries to ease Wastl's dilemma "I do believe Jack is right, that it was just an intimidation tactic this time. I do apologize but I think we have to post-pone my personal request for the time being; at least until we deliver the news of these brands and dogs and cats working in tandem. Come, we have to make haste." She climbs into the driver seat and tosses her crossbow at her feet then waits a moment for everyone to load up.

Much less concerned about looking the part of a traveling merchant cart, the pace is quickened and you make it back to town fairly quick. "I do apologize again, I was just expecting a common bandit group or something of the like. If you'd like meet me at Bar K again, informing shouldn't take that long; feel free to tell the owner anything you get will be covered for. I have to run now, see you soon." After that she hurriedly makes her way down the street.
OOC:
Feel free to do as you wish. Also, everyone advance to 2nd level.

Wastl picks up the weapons he left behind as well as the bandits'.
Anyone want any of these? If not, I know a few good dogs who could make use of them.

He'll then pass the time at the tavern with a couple of bowls of ale and food, discussing the weird brands with the others but making sure they aren't overheard.

Marvin waves dismissively at the weapons. "No, thank you."
He joins Wastl at the tavern, unwinding after all the excitement. "Those sure are strange marks. Why would a dog do that to themselves?"
Sep 28, 2017 1:45 pm
"The dog's presence there is troubling. What kind of dog sides with cats against his own kind?" Jack asks, sipping from a glass of water.

Champ spends the rest of the day and the next practicing his swordplay. The fight at the wagon was the very first real fight he's ever fought and his head is filled with thoughts of grand adventure.
