The bandits stop where they are “Gorvar is... was our leader. We’re just a bunch of people that are trying to make ends meat down here. You’ll have to excuse the rest of our group if they attacked you. Some of them can be a bit big headed when it comes to showing off...”
"I can understand that. A harsh environment. We face the same tests. As such, and as price for your attack, we will take half your rations and half your gold."
Tobias will stand behind his diminutive companion with has hand glowing with the energy of blast of sacred flame. "You picked the wrong horse to attach your wagon to."
The group of Bandits step forward slowly, keeping eye contact with Gnarls. One of them keeps looking back towards the cave that they’ve just come from. With his hands above his head, one of the men calls out “We’re going but we’re taking our food with us, we wouldn’t last down here without it” They all Male their way into the larger section of the cave, looking down at their dead comrades.
Verim has been staring at the bandits during this interaction, he places the water back underneath his robes. He gave towards where the bandits came from, then back towards the bandits, still keeping one hand under his clothing.
Speaking Under-common to the bandits
Those who speak under common in Spoiler
Put your spoiler here.”I know some of you will be able to understand the words I’m saying, great beasts and beings lurk in these depths, why stay here at all, Gorovar lies in front of you, think about your next actions carefully, we don’t know what you’ll do next”
One of the men points towards the most eastern passage “You must ‘ave heard of the gas leaks down ‘ere! Sometimes the rocks dislodge and out comes the gas”
Unnoticed by you all, the Bandit slips a dagger into his hand from under his sleeve. You all see it in his hand as he makes his move.
Verim pulls out his concealed flask of water and tilts it over his head and pours it over himself, seconds later an eerie chill can be felt in the cavern as ice spikes begin to appear on Verims chest, his shoulders and surrounding his legs, they form an armour coating of crystal like studs and fill the crevices of Verims robes, sharp and a heavy looking chest plate.
Gnarls runs forwards and plunges both swords into the bandit that has just slipped a dagger into his hand, his blood soaks the ground around him but he remains standing. The blood on the floor begins to freeze over slightly as the cave grows cold and Verim stands with his newly adorned armour.
Far from thrilled to be on another scrap so soon, Cyndral sighs deeply while raising his left hand towards the passage full of foes. He mutters some strange, distorted words before spears of shadow-stuff fly from three of his fingers, screeching into the bandits like ebon falcons.
(Magic Missile, Bandit 8 one bolt 2 Bandit 7 two bolts 6)
Cyndral shoots out his 3 shadow-like balls, the first hits the closest bandit, knocking him instantly to the floor while the other 2 hit the man stood behind him.
Bandit 8 - Dead
Bandit 7 Movement to N10. Dagger Attack Against Gnarls: 20 Damage: 4
Bandit 6 Movement to O9. Dagger Attack Against Tobias: 19 Damage: 4
Bandit 5 Movement to N8. Dagger Attack Against Gnarls: 12 Damage: 5
Bandit 4 Dash Movement to Q5
After being hit, the second closest to you runs forwards, He plants his foot on the wall and does a side flip over Gnarls, pushing his dagger down into the halflings shoulder as he moves. The man behind him sees the opportunity and rushes forwards, planting his dagger in Tobias' upper thigh. Unsure what to do, the two women look at each other for a second. One runs forwards, stepping over 2 bodies and attempts to stab Gnarls who raises his swords and stops her small blade, the other woman darts off, you're unsure where she's ran to.
"You had the chance to leave peacefully!"Tobias ignores the bandit that took a stab at him and instead brings his mace down on the one scorched by Cyndral's arcane blasts (B7).
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
El runs forwards and hurls a handaxe at the bandit behind Gnarls and Tobias (N10) and the second one at the bandit in front of Tobias (O9) skidding to a stop at Q10 just in front of Cyndral.
Attack 1:12 Damage: 6
Attack 2:6 Damage: 1
OoC: El will have taken the dagger with a wooden handle, small purple book and any ammunition from the bandits bodies if that's alright.

Gnarls has visibly about had enough surprises. Gruffly, not unwinding the tension in his body at all he barks at them
"The next step forward is your last. Who is Gorovar, and who are you?"

Shishakli adds to them as they pass, in common, "What is the source of that smell?" pointing towards the cavern from where it's emanating.

Gnarls, contemplating killing them for their food and gold anyways, charges at the closest bandit swords whirling.
Main: Attack: 19 Damage: 8
Off: Attack: 24 Damage: 5
Verim pulls out his concealed flask of water and tilts it over his head and pours it over himself, seconds later an eerie chill can be felt in the cavern as ice spikes begin to appear on Verims chest, his shoulders and surrounding his legs, they form an armour coating of crystal like studs and fill the crevices of Verims robes, sharp and a heavy looking chest plate.

Gnarls runs forwards and plunges both swords into the bandit that has just slipped a dagger into his hand, his blood soaks the ground around him but he remains standing. The blood on the floor begins to freeze over slightly as the cave grows cold and Verim stands with his newly adorned armour.

Attack: 24 Damage: 7
"Eldeth! Go get some of the others!"
Tobias pushes his mace into the bandit. You hear a loud crack as a couple of ribs are broken.
Breaking into her old military ways Eldeth replies with a short “Sir, yes sir” as she turns heel and dashes towards the others. Movement to V22
