So "Hunter Dans" place is a wooden like home with a straw roof. There is archery targets he has outside his place against the wall of the left side of his house.
"Hunter Dan" the wood elf wears leather on left of his chest says hero and has a black Cape around his neck. Here he is at his place shooting his bow at the targets. It is a dark blue bow with a white string and with silver on the top and bottom of the bow. it can shoot two arrows at once. He wears 3 different quivers on his back. He is using the middle one.
Ooc. Sorry everyone the last night I was at a huge cooking event which my college was invited to so I had to quickly look on here and reply.
Now onto what happens.
"Hunter Dan" hearing Orrbet approaching him hears and fires his shoot. Placing his bow to his side. I see you and all your fellow Posey is here and to take on my hunters task. This is an act of bravery and Nobility. There is a beast that is near here to the south in one of the 3 caves it is called a Retrilader which is a Huge 3 tailed scorpion it is also a female and not alone it always has 3 other medium Red scorpions with it. It has a Red like exoskeleton to but it's back is black following up the tails on that side. The claws and poison tips on all of the scorpions are a wolfsbane purple from their consumption of that flower over time it changed that species appearance forever. I would go after this queen like scorpion alone but the unknown risks going into its lair is quite risky even for I "Hunter Dan" a hero yet Hunter extraordinaire! He does a hero's like pose. This is why I asked for help as it would be hard to fend of them all alone is why I need all your help are you sure you are willing to accept this task with me? it is quite dangerous as to why the reward is quite high. You all will also receive some of the scorpions meat as well as one of the stingers tips. It is also armored so it may be used the exoskeleton as well.
So with the party deciding you all head off with "Hunter Dan" to the cave of the Retrilader as he also explains this one is a queen as well as to why it has the black on it's back and to be careful of how close to it you all get as it is so poisonous it emits it and it will be 18 ft long this creature each tail is 9 ft long as well). One most always prepare himself for whatelse is to come before his enemies. Meaning you scope them out this is no different then any of my other hunts but I dont hunt just for the sake of doing so. Only if it is something truly menacing and could be a potential theat. other means is to feed those where I live and provide a good way of living. The Retilader Queen its tracks are round shaped and space out 3 ft apart each leg as it has 8 legs you may also smell a the poisonous odor from it as well is the same with the cave it will be in. Be aware that there will be the flower wolfsbane in its nest as I said it eats them but it also has them as protection against creature and people they are highly poisonous flowers. I have used them to tip my arrows with poison before but not against this kind of beast. (along the way there he does share one of his Heroic stories.) It was 20 years ago I use to live on a land called Vialotia which is the moving land on the ground onto of the ocean; idk how it moves but it does. There was a figure by the name of Drowkon who threatened the land he had his 5 tips of poisons and I "Hunter Dan" ventured off into the 5th tip of poisons Lair Yirakumo who was a gargantuan Blue silver tiger headed Tarantula. Those dont exist at all in nature. Drowkon made him out of Pure Yin and 10 corrupted souls so goes the lore and fused the parts together creating Yirakumo. Who threatened all the underground of the land he would constantly feast on the yin of people well killing them in the process send his smaller spiders up on land to also kill. So me and a man called Antonio Bartolo a Bladenoid assasian went on in and fought this beast in his lair and through many scares and injuries and my bow snapping in the process I couldn't stop to think my life was on the line and the assianas I grabbed my last arrow well Yirakimo was staggered and jumped into and stabbed it right into his mouth slashing the back of the neck open and managed to kill that foul creature. My arrows arent your run of the mill arrows. The rest of them idk what happened. (He shows a extremely large fang mark along his ribs where he was bit from Yirakumo he also does show his arrows they are double spear headed ones but the have a razor sharp double edge to.)
"Pardon my ignorance because i am not a marskman but why double headed arrows instead of the normal single headed arrows? Aren't they way harder to make and take more space in your quiver?"
The Hunter smiles at the readiness of you all. This one should intail for a real fight these creatures are fearsome and strong. No worries to answer your question on my arrow the double headed cuts through the wind with easy making them far more accurate but also does more damage on the one it hits they cut through clean instead of staying inbeded in a body depending on the size. During this you all come up to the dessert like area seeing in the distance the caves.
"What is the master plan Hunter Dan? Do you lead and we sneak a little behind you? I can also scout ahead with you if you need a second set of eyes. I think we are ready to take on these beasty! They can be no match for our wit and strength!" Orrbet looks admiringly at the party around him.
Here are a few rolls in case you need them.

Anything that helps out is worth trying to do. The reason we are going in now is because this is around the time they will be active so basically just waking up right now. While their perception is low we are at our highest at this moment but this will still be no easy ft but you all and I "Hunter Dan" cannot fail this!. Once we kill the queen the underlings will scatter be werey she can call for more back up. Looking ahead you did spot some sand worms they are babies at this moment but the parent can't be too far behind and they are massive. So you manage to warn the party and sneak past them. Getting close to the cave you see there i some water that runs out of the one on the right tunnel there is a path to go in that one has water which has a violet look to it. Careful and don't drink the water this is highly poisonous and can cause illness and death if drink enough. This also means this tunnel is the right one to the Retriladar Queen split up around here to avoid us being barraged by her attacks she has a 10 ft with each tail and 8ft with her claws. When you are all ready we can go in ("Hunter Dan" before entering takes an arrow out of his quiver does a circle in the Ground puts a queen in the middle looks like the chess piece.) We venture on our way to the Retriladar Queen with your guidance Ursula we commend this Hunt for the safety of the kingdom and prosperity of the land. He stops his prayer and stabs the arrow into the circle and goes into the cave you must show respect to every hunt you go on this is my method. ("Hunter Dan" already knew the location of this cave that's why track checking wasn't necessary)
Sshibek does hear the creature it isn't too far in the cave about 100 ft sounds like it has back up 3 other Scorpions can hear them crawling around there is one on the far left of her and two in the middle on the right of her is no sound. We could try to lure it out but in such an open space may give it more chances to hit us at least in the cave we could find places to hide if we make too much noise this could be an insanely large group idk and draw them all out and worst if there is a king Retriladar which is somewhat weaker than the queen but we would have no chance to take on both at once. You all sneak up to the entrance where the Retriladar Queen is you see her in the middle her red exoskeleton and black lining down to her tails and wolfsbane purple claws. You do notice the flowers all around in the cave they will be hard to avoid they haven't noticed you all yet.
Sshibek aims a javelin at one of the smaller creatures, nods at the others to get ready, and waits for Charles to notch an arrow too. Then he throws it.
Attack: 18 Damage: 6

"Hi Hunter Dan, I am Orrbet! This is my pose of adventurers. A little bird told us you need some help tracking a sneaky monster. Can we help?"

"Yeah, I'm here for some beast hunting. If it's armoured, even better. Lead the way hunter, I want to see a hero in action."
"We will follow and help you with these beasties. If you need help with tracking...I have a keen eye and can assist."
Orrbet will stick near Dan and ask for tales of his most courageous hunts as we travel to the cave.

Sulking behind the group Charles sips from his waterskin
" I don't like sand. It's all coarse, and rough, and irritating. And it gets everywhere."
"We better deal with this terrifying ribbit from a distance, 9 ft long tails are not a joke!"
"Have we spotted any of the tracks?"

"Do you have a way of luring the thing out, hunter? Otherwise I'm going in. I'm not one for planning when the pray is so near."
Sshibek approaches the entrance and and looks through the cave. Perception 20
Charles will add an arrow of his own to the circle drawing and nock another on his bow.
"Make sure to clutch together Ribbits, Lead on hunter Dan"
