"No. Let them come to us. Be ready." He squints at them, "They're bulky and carrying large weapons. They're holding them at the ready, don't look aggressive. Maybe a patrol? We will see. Be alert."
"Bulky, could it be orcs from these lands? If so, we should be on guard". Slasher will draw his longsword and shield but will leave them by his side ready to spring to combat if needed.
"I am happy with Anastasia talking, I am not the greatest with talking to people however I am not terrible at it. I suspect Anastasia will be able to talk to them better."
(Looking at the character sheets, we have a fairly intimidating party. The average intimidation score is +5. Only Anastasia and Gerlan are great at other forms of communication though)
As the figures come closer, you begin to make out more details. By the time they are within shouting distance, you can see the outlines of furs and skins that make up their clothing, the somewhat rough condition of the weapons (what appears to be a greataxe carried by the middle figure and two large hammers), and most importantly, the outlines of large tusks coming from the mouths of the outer two figures. They continue walking towards you, now 50 feet away, weapons still drawn.
Anastasia draws no weapon and at this point the rest of the party realizes that she's not armed with much more than a few daggers and a light crossbow, but she still looks incredibly confident. "Morning, boys. What brings the three of you here with such large weapons?"

The figures stop, and a voice rings out in rough common. ”I’d ask you the same question, seeing as you stand on my territory. But I already know the answer. Go home and tell your Peacemaker that he’s not wanted here.”
The middle figure steps forward. He wears more ordinate furs than the others, terminating in a skinned wolf’s head on the top of his own. ”You speak to Gorathi, son of Gorath, warleader of the Gorathal people and rightful ruler of these lands. And you, interloper, will leave. Take your traitors and outcasts with you and tell your Peacemaker that he will face my father in the rite of leadership if he wishes to impose on our people.”
"Is that actually name people around here? Did your father just decide that his name needed to be on everything? This seems out of place compared to my internal database."
((Unless you know the 1962 movie, probably not. Just a name I chose. Your character would know of him if you want more information))
The man just snorts. "Think what you want, machine. I know your type. Made for war probably. Slaughter, burn, and pillage. That's all you know. We have nothing to discuss."
Starting at 7th level, if you spend at least 1 minute observing or interacting with another creature outside combat, you can learn certain information about its capabilities compared to your own. The DM tells you if the creature is your equal, superior, or inferior in regard to two of the following characteristics of your choice:
Strength score
Dexterity score
Constitution score
Armor Class
Current hit points
Total class levels (if any)
Fighter class levels (if any)
I am observing Gorath, and I choose current hit points (mine are 104) and strength score (mine is 20)

You judge that the man seems to have superior hit points, but is slightly less strong than your own metal frame.
