Bree casts Sorcerous Bolt at Luigi using the Psychic type
24
the damage is complicated
If you roll an 8 on a d8 for this spell, you can roll another d8, and add it to the damage. When you cast this spell, the maximum number of these d8s you can add to the spell’s damage equals your spellcasting ability modifier. (+4)
The robe wearing bandit that everyone somehow intuitively knows their name is Luigi, who had only moments before, removed a light crossbow and begun to aim in Bree's direction, is struck by Bree's spell just in time - Luigi cries, grabs his head, and falls to the ground. Unlike Feydon's trial, its over within a few moments, and Luigi gives up the ghost.
Feydon yells a short battle cry that becomes a kind of 'hyah', tugging on his reign, and with his rapier drawn, he uses his advantage from mounted combat to make a connecting hit that, with its extra sneak attack damage added, brings, the woman to within an inch of her own demise.
Geren rides up and fires his shortbow. His arrow plunges into one of the bandits, who wonders if this is divine justice for having shot a previous adventurer in the knee.
Hnefa, following just behind Feydon and Geren, finishes the 'Distressed' woman off with a solid thud from her Maul +1 now with added cold damage - even if she'd only barely connected, it would've brought her to her end. But it was a solid connection, and the woman's back practically snaps in two as she crumbles into the dirt, just as she was beginning to cast some hostile magic.

Dawn urges Dusk to move up as well. Dusk kept pace with Mousey (Feldon's horse).
Once she was closer to the bandits, she cast a spell targeting the one Geren hit.
Gui was now absolutely convinced it was divine retribution, as he heard the chime of a dolorous bell ringing his death. Jak can also hear the bell, though he's not affected by it.
Eltra rides Old timer behind some bushes for cover against the ranged bandits. Eltra always the wily one flings 3 magical darts at the bandit who is ironically named Bandit. Poor Bandit couldn't take the blasts leaving three gaping holes in his torso (13 damage)
The bandit that looks very much like a Mack - but also a Jak somehow - aims his crossbow at the nearest target - Hnefa - and fires.... and is just barely off mark, her horse, Tiny, moving her out of the way just as the bolt arrives where her head had been. Looking at her angry expression, he begins to rapidly reload, panicking that so many of his comrades are already down.
Karl continues to snore loudly, deep into some kind of dream that has him scratching at the sky almost like a kitten. Poor Karl. Never felt that it was his destiny to be a human. If he'd had his way, he'd either have owned a restaurant chain like his father, Karl Senior, before him... or would have preferred to have been a cat. But, being beset with clinically obvious amounts of psychopathy made those dreams difficult to attain. It's hard to get into business with people when you keep poisoning them just to see what kind of expressions they'll make when they die. (Karl is a right bastard - you can just tell - so don't feel bad about striking him in his sleep lol).
Frank, out of range to use his scimitar, draws out his own light crossbow and takes a shot at the largest and nearest target to him as well - also Hnefa.... and it misses by even more than the last shot. So much so, to his relief, Hnefa doesn't even notice the shot from Frank.
Bill, being just a little older than his comrades, is determined to demonstrate that he they're not all completely incompetent and mirrors the actions of Frank and Mack/Jak before him, firing his own bolt toward Hnefa.... instead he almost drops the crossbow as he shoots, missing by the most of anyone so far - if he'd messed that up even a little more, he may actually have tripped and hit his head or something. He manages to stay standing, and keep the bow in his hands, but has had the opposite effect of convincing anyone that these people are anything other than totally inept buffoons that bit off WAY more than they can chew.
Simon has had enough. As the de facto leader of this 'gang' of misfits - well - after the Distressed Woman anyway, who was their literal leader - Simon is determined to fill that vacuum by a display of martial skill. Again the easiest and closet target is Hnefa - he fires... and HITS! Hnefa is hit squarely in her left shoulder. She growls from the pain, but is otherwise able to remain mounted and focused on her revenge. Mack/Jak breathes a sigh of relief seeing that Hnefa now has a new target for her fury. (Hnefa is hit for 4 damage)
Larry, recognizing a spell caster in Dawn after her cantrip had finished off his third best friend, Gui, focuses his Crossbow on her... fires... and misses almost as badly a Simon had missed. Not quite. But it was pretty far off the mark.
(Jesus - I'm not making this up, the rolls are in the log, these guys are SUCKING)
Larry, coming up to his second best friend Larry, copies his action exactly, firing at the young Aasimar.... and missing by several feet, his bolt soaring far too high and disappearing into the bushes on the other end of the clearing.
From behind a hidden alcove in the bushes, one of the areas Feydon first pointed to as potential spots for harboring more enemies, emerges another bandit - Larry's absolute BEST friend, Phil. Unlike the others, Phil's first sight is that of the Goliath again, who also happens to be closer - so he takes aim at her and fires... missing by a wide mark again, though not quite as embarrassingly as his other friends.

Bree did you see Dawn's message about using the 'play' button on your character sheet?
You can also just describe what you'd like to do. Can you see the map at all? If not I can drop a screenshot of it in the thread here.

(OOC: its Geren's turn)
Geren rides up and fires his shortbow. His arrow plunges into one of the bandits, who wonders if this is divine justice for having shot a previous adventurer in the knee.

DC 15 WIS save to avoid 7 necrotic damage
The bandit that somehow is clearly named Gui clutches his chest, and oddly also his knee, and collapses into a heap, expired.

"That's one for Old Eltra, youngins!"
Paul manages to arouse himself, but can do nothing else for the turn.
