You move through the woods careful to make as little sound as possible. You see the two thugs guarding secret the entrance to the Redbrand hideout. Moving up for an ambush to quickly and quietly take them out all seems well.
Suddenly a handful of grouse burst from a bush they were hiding in near Eedim. The thugs heads snap round to face him, "Shazbaatt!", he lets out a harsh curse in the gnomish tongue.
OOC: Well surprise is blown Eedim rolls for initiative :) Kargan, Kryinor, and Titus may attack with advantage on their first round as the thugs still have not seen them.
Eedim raises his crossbow and fires at the thug on the right...
Attack: 17 Damage: 10
The flies true and hits with a heavy wet thud in his guts. The Redbrand groans and staggers, hen with obvious effort pushes him self forwards towards the Gnome, drawing two short swords.
His companion enraged by the intruder and the wounding of his comrade picks up the pace and begins to charge Eedim also drawing two short swords. "You're gonna die you little bastard!" he yells spittle spraying out of his mouth.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
I throw a stone at the nearest thug casting (magic stone) on it just before i throw it, aiming to knock him out. Keeping quiet trying to stay unnoticed
Kryinor launches a glowing stone with his sling, it whipcracks and hisses through the air striking the Thug on the back of his head. He yells out in anger, stops running for Eedim and dives into the bushes.
"So you've go friends 'ave ya. Well they can come die too!"
Kargan hits the bandit charging a hastily reloading Eedim, and with a good swing of his battleaxe drives the bolt and axe head deep into his bowels. The force of the dwarfs blow stooping him dead in his tracks.
Titus's arrow follows the bandit into the bushes and a howl of pain and anger is his reward. For a moment he disappears. Then Kryinor sees the thug moving carefully through the undergrowth towards the cave trying to escape and warn his comrades.
The sling cracks again, the magic stone flies into a bush and there is a loud thud and a crash of branches as the ruffian slumps unconscious to the ground.
Titus, and Eedim keep watch on the area bow and cross bow at the ready, as Kargan moves quickly through the brush to the still form on the leaves.
Only seconds have passed but the violence has given way to the quiets sounds of the forest gain.
"I'll take a look in the entrance, stand watch guys"
Stealth: 24
I'll head into the entrance and move some ways in being careful to check for any hidden areas. Once in a ways I;ll stop and listen making sure i'm positioned at the side.
I will start to cover up the evidence that there was a commotion hiding the dead thug in a bush away abit away from where we fought, checking him for valuables before returning to where Kargan and the unconcious thug are.
Titus melds into the under-story of the woods and moves like a ghost to the cave in the hill side. The area seems quiet and unguarded. Moving in Titus can see that the small tunnel is rough-hewn through the dirt and rock of the hill on which Tresendor manor ruins sit. He sneaks about twenty feet into the passage and with his elf sight can see that it continues to the north for at least another 60 feet.
Meanwhile Kryinor begins to conceal the mess of the combat moments ago and begins to hide and check the body of the ruffian that Kargan nearly cut in half with his axe.
Kargan move slowly and carefully to the remaining unconscious thug in the bushes. At the last moment he sees the body tense and realises that the bandit was playing possum.
"I'll take you with me, you blasted beardling!", he yells and he jumps up and attacks the Dwarf. Kargan is ready to meet him as the bandits ruse for surprise fails.
