Kel scratches his chin. "I don't right know. Seems he lost his nerve at the prospect of being defenseless amid that horde. He muttered something about 'Leaving the kettle on,' grabbed his gear, and headed back toward Greenest. Perhaps he'll deliver the news, but I'm not sure we can count on him to have done so."

The Ranger simply watches, remaining quiet, and stays on the alert.

"Well that escalated quickly, I am glad it could be resolved without bloodshed. As for me, I had been a investigator in the city guard, so when this situation started, as many of us that could be spared were sent to asses things and help in any way we can. Though I wouldn't count on meeting any more, we were, by necessity spread quite thinly."

OOC:
No rush at all since I am just a couple hours away from boarding a big ass cruise ship for a week but once you have finished introductions you can review the spoiler and attempt to formulate your game plan.

Actaeon pulls out the cultist robe and mask from his pack, and turns to the group, My disguise tactic worked at the windmill in Greenest- perhaps I could utilize it again to do some infiltration, and gather information before we lay waste to them.

To Acteon... "Hmmmm, I thought we had a plan, Sah. But if you want to investigate with stealth I’m afraid I cannot assist you there."
Jan 21, 2019 1:53 pm
"Either way, I can accompany you. I'm sure a mercenary is no rare sight in that camp."
Jan 21, 2019 5:22 pm
Actaeon replies, Yes, I know we briefly discussed it, but never formulated a real plan. I strongly think we should gather intel first, and then strike. You lot can hide in plain sight as mercenaries, and possibly cause distraction while I have a peek about?

"Just so I understand, Sah... a real plan is my plan but you get to sneak around? Sounds OK to me, Sah..."

Precisely, I just wanted to make things were clear on both ends.

"As I am new to this situation, I will bow to your previous experience."
Jan 22, 2019 3:48 am
"If you new guys are stealthy I would prefer to employ the buddie system, just to make sure Actaeon does not get into trouble..."

Kel picks his sleeve, suddenly concerned with an idle thread. "Take care of each other. Blend in. Find out what you can. Meet back here before sunrise. Sound good?"
Jan 22, 2019 11:07 pm
"I have some experience of remaining unseen, though I must admit I am more used to an urban environment."
Slate ponders a moment.
"What groups then?"
Jan 24, 2019 9:17 pm
"Well, I may be new here, but I do have some ideas." Athas shows his teeth in a crooked grin as his mind turns with possibilities. He points to Actaeon and Slate. "I can only assume you're Actaeon. You're disguise idea is good, and I think you and the Guard should work on infiltrating and gathering information.
He gestures to Bartholomew. "My friend, don't take this the wrong way, but I think you may be the wrong shade to be able to hide in plain sight in this camp." Athas's dark eyes light up. "But, I do have some ink in my bag. If we were to water it down and paint you, we might be able to convince the unobservant that you aren't here to spy on them. You and I could likely pass through without much issue then."
Finally, his eyes fall on Kel. "Now, I'm afraid I don't know enough about your skillset to know where you'd be most useful. It may be beneficial to have someone keeping an eye on things from a vantage point. Or, you could join one of us. But, ultimately, it's up to you."

Kel nods at Athas. "In a wizard. Your plan is sound. If you need help, well, try not to attract the whole encampment to your predicament. Maybe set a small fire, with smoke, and billow the smoke twice if you need the others to gather to you, thrice if you need rescuing. And four times if you have what we need and everyone can clear out."

OOC:
OK..sorry for the long disappearance...at the tail end of our vacation my wife got ill...ended up being gall stones and the other night she had to have her gallbladder removed. Things are starting to settle out again...always something.

So who is doing what? If anyone is choosing to stealth then please provide stealth rolls. otherwise we can move forward however...

I think Acteon and Athas are going to stealth their way and investigate while the rest of us just wander in like we own the place?
Feb 1, 2019 5:36 am
Actaeon adjusts the cultist disguise, and then nods, I'll be heading out then.

Rolls

stealth - (1d20+6)

(10) + 6 = 16

Slate will join the stealthy crew, quickly casting Guidance on himself for a little boost first.
OOC:
that was meant to be all together, not sure why it became separate. So total 15.

Rolls

Stealth - (1D20, 1d4+5)

1D20 : (8) = 8

1d4+5 : (2) + 5 = 7
