Stalwart stays motionless in the hiding pit. He is readying his Thorn Whip cantrip.

Duke remains hidden.

Attempts to stay hidden, but arrow is knocked.

Ronda licks her lips and stays hidden, ready to strike.

The leader of the orcs points to two of the others and gestures with his javelin to various points along the beach.

He is clearly pointing to the areas where you hid your traps.

The two orcs dismount, and draw their weapons and cautiously approach your position.

What do you do?

OOC:
Our hiding place is behind the large pit trap. (Does about 20 feet sound right?) If they move around the pit trap, I will attack the closest one with a Thorn Whip cantrip.
Apr 15, 2019 6:24 am
Sure. One of them will definitely move within 10 feet of the pit should you wish to make your attack.

If Stalwart attacks, I will give everyone a surprise round.

Arina says:

OOC:
To be clear, Stalwart only wants to attack if the orcs are definitely avoiding the pit trap ("move within 10 feet of the pit trap" is not the the same as "move around the pit trap.") He doesn't want the party's efforts to go to waste and wants to give the orcs full opportunity to find the trap the hard way.

FYI, I don't mean to be difficult. The party is already outnumbered against mounted troops. There is no need to reveal themselves until more of the scouts are in close range. The mission fails if the scouts can just ride around us without consequences.

OOC:
Does anybody have something that they could do to startle the horses forward?
Apr 15, 2019 2:18 pm
@Stalwart: They appear to move around the pit, so yeah, they seem to have spotted it. It's time to act. Use it or lose it.

As for moving around you, orcs are notoriously bllodthirsty. You doubt they would back away from a fight unless the odds were significantly against them.

Stalwart casts Thorn Whip on one the orcs near the pit. He stays as hidden as he can.
OOC:
If the attack succeeds, Stalwart would like to drag the orc over the pit area so he falls in. If he can't drag the orc over the pit, he doesn't want to drag the orc at all. FYI, what Stalwart would really like to do on a success is drag the entangled orc into the other orc and they both go into the pit.

Yorrick leaps out of the ground in the most terrifying way possible for a giant sand spider.
OOC:
I believe that includes existing and jumping out of the sand.
He then attacks the closest enemy towards the back of the group.
OOC:
We may all have sand in our eyes.

Unfortunately, Moon was not hidden from the orcs. No one was. The group stealth check was a failure.

Stalwart reaches out with his thorn whip and pulls one of the orcs into the trap. It screams out in pain and rage but it doesn't appear to have been killed.

Ronda rushes up to the other orc near the put and slams her fists into it. The rest of you miss with your attacks.

The leader of the orcs yells something to the others.

Round 1 Fight!
OOC:
Please roll initiative and take your first turn

Duke attacks the same one again. He calls out as he attacks Tempus give me strength to be these Orcs undoing. There is only battle rage now for Duke.

Duke speaks Orc. Was the leader calling in Orc?
