With her full dash action she can actually get right to the edge of the bushes and will be within 60 feet of the bandit covering the other's escape into the cave.Aug 25, 2018 9:43 pm
Keavan continues to advance, not with Falka's ferocity, but with a steady, intimidating inevitability all his own.
Then seeing Yohna rush to join Falka he sighs a little and dashes to catch up to them, standing ready to protect them with his shield.

Nice. You guys will also receive the 1/2 cover bonus for being behind the bushes.Aug 26, 2018 1:37 am
"So what, then, Midnight? You're just going to sit here behind a tree while everyone else does all the work? Come ON!" Midnight takes a breath, then runs after the others.
OOC:
She'll try to get within 60 feet of the nearest opponent so that next round she can use acid splash.Last edited August 26, 2018 1:38 am

Hold that thought. Breezy still has to take his action this round. But, she can do that this coming round as soon as Breezy goes. She should be within 60 feet with her full movement this coming round 25' so you'd be able to take an action also.Aug 26, 2018 5:57 pm

im not sure how far Vardo is from the fray, but I'm sure he's in longbow range. That said, he doesn't want to be so far as to be unable to rush in to help if needed. If possible, he'd like to manoeuvre to around 60' from the confrontation.
He repositions for better line of sight and fires again.

Breezy
Breezy swiftly moves in closer all the while reloading his crossbow in haste. Breezy can see now that the bandit is dressed in plain dark blue tunic and trouser with the lower half of his face covered with white cloth. Breezy, lets his bolt fly, hitting squarely on the bandits sternum near his throat. The bandit lurches forward and lets out a gurgle. White cloth covering his mouth is now stained red.
Vardo and Breezy : 90ft/70ft/30ft (cliffside/bandit/edge of bushes)
Midnight : 100ft/80ft/40ft
Falka : 75ft/55ft/15ft
Yohna, Keavan : 60ft/40ft/0ft
Midnight and Vardo
Midnight moves in near Falka. She closes her eyes and lets out an arcane chant while moving her hands in semicircular motio as if manipulating an unseen globe. A sickly green bubble of smoke forms around her hands. Gesturing as if pushing the bubble, it flies straight towards the bandit.
The bandit, still reeling from the injurty from Breezy's crossbow, pulls the bolt out and stands straight only to realize to his surprise that an arcane orb of green smoke is flying straight for his face. Unable to react in time it hits him. The bubble bursts into green acidic liquid burning off the cloth along with the majority of his face. His face is a mush of chemical burns, the skin peeling and dripping off his face. He gives a terrible, loud shriek as he tries in vein to keep the structural integrity of his face in tact.
As if that wasn't enough, soon an arrow escapes Vardo's bow and sticks squarely into the bandit's neck. He drops to his knees and slumps forward lifeless.

At this point. There are no immediate threat present.OOC:
The cave mouth is between 10-15 feet wide and you can see what appears to be torchlight emanating from within the cave. You also saw the two bandits escape into the cave.[ +- ] Sketch of the clearing

"Is everyone alright?" Yohna asks as soon as she sees the immediate threat fizzle and disintegrate in a grotesque display of overkill. "Midnight? Ser Falka, you were wounded, were you not?" The cleric sighs and looks to the entrance of the cave.
"We should stick close from here on out. We were too vulnerable back there, spread thin."

"I'm okay, thanks." is all Midnight says before turning to stare silently at the entrance to the cave.
Aug 26, 2018 11:21 pm
Falka grasps at a grizzly wound in her hip, a crimson patch spreading across her robes around a small gash in the fabric. The arrow skimmed past and hadn't stuck, but it left a cruel pain in its wake. Nonetheless, she nods lightheartedly in assent to the cleric's concern. Through gritted teeth, she breathes a curt sigh before beckoning the others to join her at the cave mouth.
"We can bury the dead and check for survivors later," she says evenly. For a moment she takes in the grotesque state of their latter foe. "Or mayhap just the burying. But for now, there are more scoundrels to be had."

Vardo nods to Yohna to let her know he's unhurt and to indicate his agreement with her call for more uniformed actions for the group. He gathers any of his arrows still intact and within a reasonobale range, then moves to a position where he can easily cover the mouth cave while the team assembles.

Breezy moves to join his companions, recovering one of his bolts as he does so. He gazes over at Falka, concern crossing his face at the sight of her wound. "Do you need help?"
Reloading his crossbow, he takes his place and eyes the cave opening.
"I’m pretty sure we won’t be surprising them. he says, trying to keep it light.

Keavan moves to cover the entrance to the cave, ready in case the bandits rush out while his companions prepare.
Aug 27, 2018 2:44 pm
Keavan can see that the cave's path immediately veers to the left (facing the cave entrance) so can't see further down unless going in. There's a source of light from inside the cave (most likely torches). He can hear faint murmurs that he can't quite make out. Other than that, it is eerily quiet.
OOC:
So what is the party's course of action?Aug 27, 2018 2:58 pm
Vardo stows his bow, draws his rapier and moves close enough to Keavan to be able to converse at a low volume. "I can scout it out...or we can form up in our marching order and go in as one unit."
Aug 27, 2018 3:39 pm
"They know we are coming now, let's just form up.
I will take the centre, that way I can cover you and Falka with my shield."
