[[ Sure. Might I propose we also do a d3 to determine how many of the quarry we find? (If we get three hungry wolves I have a feeling I'll regret this, but in the words of King Arthur, "Run away!"]]
4 x 2
[[ Well... 2 is better than 3. But, uh... XD
Want to go with theater of the mind or make a quick battlemap? ]]
[OoC: I suck at maps, so let's keep it simple. Besides, if we can take out one in a sneak attack, we only have the other one to face. Plus, check Roland's fighting style. He's supposed to be the designated tank. Just keep near him and he can take any extra punishment.]
While moving into place, the young elf carefully unhosters his crossbow. Wincing slightly as Luz steps on a loose twig, alerting the voracious beasts to her presence, he quickly fires a bolt at the nearest one. Though his immediate aim is quite spot-on, he nonetheless jumps the gun, his bolt striking the canine on it's side rather than it's center. At the very least, one is now wounded. <And,> he thinks, <at least now there's a chance they'll go for me instead of her.>
[To hit: non-Nat 20, Damage: 5]
He begins to reach for his spear, simultaneously discarding his crossbow...
The boy manages to dodge one beast, but is ultimately gnoshed by the other. He grabs his spear and ready to counterstrike when an unknown wave of thunderous energy comes roaring from his left. He's just out of reach, however, and manages to grab his spear. He strikes out at the nearest beast, his #2's familiar providing the perfect distraction to strike forth with an admirable thrust of his spear!
[To hit: 21, Damage: 7]
Depending on whether or not the beast yet lives, he'll fall back to his partner, opting to protect her even at the cost of himself (if it does still live, he'll hold his ground for that same reason).

"Stabilize, Roland if you can, Savras!" says Luz. The owl goes to make a medicine check on the fallen elf. She finishes, "I'm not taking any more chances."
She utters another arcane word sending a barrage of magic darts towards the wolf. Magic Missile Dart 1: 2 force damage Dart 2: 4 force damage Dart 3: 2 force damage
For curiosity's sake. 5 //acid splash 9 //wolf dex save Attack: 6 Damage: 9 //theoretical wolf attack the next round
With the unconscious Roland before her Luz tries to see if she can drag him, before realizing the going would be much too slow for practicality. She turns to Savras, "Head back to camp and see if you can get someone to come here with a horse." She'll keep watch over the elf while waiting for aid. During the wait she sees about doing some basic cleaning of the wolves. "More dangerous that intended, but waste not want not."
[[ shall we just assume Natasha or Sylas comes along with the horse and be back at camp, perhaps with the wolves too for prepping? ]]

[[ fair enough, let's say the wolves are at 40 ft away? ]]
Luz follows suit with Roland's move towards stealth as Savras spots the wolves.
Stealth: 11+2 = Lucky 13!
So that's not enough to get them surprise in regards to Luz, though Roland would be able to remain hidden at 22.

With the attack, let's give it 25-75 odds of each wolf going for Roland. 1-5, Luz. 6-20, Roland.
Wolf 1: 8
Wolf 2: 17
The wolves charge at the sudden interlopers, snapping their jaws as they attack as one. (pack tactics)

Alright. Both charge towards Roland, one of them landing a solid hit on the fighter.
"Aid Roland, Savras!" says Luz. The owl flies by Wolf 1, clawing at its face, before returning to the sky. help to give advantage on the next attack.
She holds her orb and chants in Infernal, loosing a blast of thunderous sound towards the wolves.

Roland's spear lands true, felling the wolf.
The other wolf, having just seen thunderous energy and a might thrust, decides whether to turn tail or fight.

The elf falls to the ground, bleeding profusely. The wizard's on her own.
"Not good!" yells Luz. Savras swoops in to help his master.
With aid from the owl countering the disadvantage of a raging wolf, Luz lets forth a blast a frost.
