Sable stealth 10

Sable was having an off day today, though she didn't trip and clatter, she wasn't as quiet as she usually was.

So, as you're walking, Lightning Keep comes into view as you crest a snow hill. It is a well-preserved structure with battlements lining its granite walls. A straight path leads to a stone gatehouse, which contains a closed set of heavy wooden doors behind an iron portcullis. You see no signs of habitation and no other entrances. 

Outside the keep, there are eight wolves. They look hungry.

Ulysse, would you like to cast pass without trace now?

(So are we in a spot where we can see all of this and talk? Are we that far away from the wolves to try to game plan as a group or is it a spur of the moment call?)

 You can make a stealth check to see if they notice you.

Boils Stealth: 16

Erzer stealth: 16

Alright, you all succeed your group stealth check. Sable is about bump into Boil, but the rest of you make sure that doesn’t happen. 

You have some cover where you can have a whispered conversation without the wolves noticing. 

Sable offers in a whisper, "Nn. Draw wolfs away from gate? Can hit from here."

"Sso what's the plan? We could use the ssneaky ssneaky trick we did before, but I'm not sure how ssneaky we can be trying to get into that place. Perhapss my firey friend can help uss get into place with itss little teleport trick? Again though, won't be quiet. Do we deal with the wolvess now or later?" Ulysse ponders. "Perhapss we deal with them now while we have a drop on them as Ssable ssuggestss. Not great meat but might be usseful grub or peltss in there."

 So, would you like to attack the wolves, or…

Ulysse votes to plan an ambush plan and then work to get inside without concern of the wolves attacking. 

Boil doesn’t want to worry about an attack from behind, and votes to take care of the wolves first

Sable is good with taking care of the wolves first. She seems to enjoy fighting monsters.

Alright. You have the element of surprise. Who wants to attack first?

Sable will go first unless someone stops her. Advantage from surprise, sneak attack from advantage...

Was starting to roll, then realized I didn't know how far, and that made a big difference. 60' or less 2 attacks with psychic blades, 80' or less 1 attack with short bow, more than 80' 1 attack at disadvantage (balanced by advantage for surprise for unmodified roll).

Also, what range do others want for their attacks?

Ulysse best within 30' but his sling goes up to 120'

You’re currently about 60 feet away. 

"I could run up and throw ssome fire at them and run back? Or could bring out my firey friend to help fire them up." Ulysse looks to see the others thoughts on how they propose to handle the group since there are 8 of the wolves.
