Nelvik returns from being a bit ahead of everyone else. He finds a seat to rest for a few minutes and gets caught up on the conversation. "Who Creolina? Hah, I take him as a bore with a drinking problem." He barely speaks, less than me and I'm not friendly with many as it is." "By the way, if I don't spot anything by the time we need to set up for camp and all is well, I'd like to take watch last. I'll be fairly tired being on my feet all day, keeping you all safe on your butts." Nelvik looks over to Creolina. "You suck." Nelvik chuckles showing he's just having a bit of fun since everyone is bombarding him with questions. Nelvik gets up and jumps down to continue scouting ahead. "I'm going to go farther up ahead, if I don't get back before camp don't worry, I'll be there shortly. I just want to see what we have in store for us in the morning." Nelvik starts jogging in front of the group not waiting for Creolina to respond.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
“If we are taking a rest then I will take second watch friends.” Prax says happily. “I can see a little better than most at night.”
Looking at Nelvik Prax says “if you see anything just scream at the top of your lungs... the adrenaline in your veins will make you taste better if things go south.”

"Talking was never my fine suit. I always just prefer to let the Lord speak for me, while I do the enforcing." Creolina says to Nelvik. "I will ensure my watch goes smoothly." Creolina yawns.
"Sounds like I get a full night sleep then? Why thank you all so much. I do appreciate the gesture after how much attention I've had to pay driving these well trained ox down the high road all day. Hahaha! I can take first watch if needed. Or third depending on how tired Nelvik is when we settle down. He has been out a bit. *to Creolina* And if you prefer to keep your words close, I guess that is fine for both of you. I'm sure Prax and I can talk enough for the 4 of us. Hahahaha."
Roll for a watch? (Not sure I can do the forum one from my phone. I can do it first thing tomorrow.) Rolled an 11 plus my 4 on my phone roller.
Nelvik scouts ahead while the party veers off to make camp.
OOC: Nelvik I will send you a direct message with what you see. You may choose to share it with the party in the morning if you like.
As Nelvik makes it back to the party the other's are bedding down for the night in a clearing in the forest. It is a nice clear night as you bed down, the insects are chirping and all seems right in the world. Nelvik and Prax get some rest as the first watch begins.
First Watch- Rhaucred and Creolina take the first watch. An hour passes, possibly it is the long walk today or maybe some bad rations but sleep overtakes Creolina. Luckily, Rhaucred is fairly alert. Rhaucred, you hear something moving to the south of you. It is not moving very quietly but it does seem to be moving slowly.
Rhaucred- What do you do?
OOC: If you wish to move please try to use the coordinates on the map the best you can.
I'm going to draw my shortbow, and see if I can hear or see anything more to the south. ( I do have darkvision)
Perception 17
I would like to attempt to be stealthy about my movements as well and hide in the shadows made by the fire if it is still going, as I back up north to wake up Creolina.
Rhaucred- As you watch you see a figure on all fours emerging into the clearing. It seems to have snout that it has buried into the ground sniffing. It is walking slightly closer and is now around 40 feet in front you. Now due to your high perception and dark vision you clearly see that this is a Black Bear. It is working it's way toward you but doesn't seem to have noticed you specifically.
My character is a female. I would like to spend my first turn making sure everyone knows my character's gender and also that essential oils are great for the body.

Rhaucred wakes Creolina then fires an arrow from his shortbow. The Black Bear is surprised and does not have time to react. The arrow strikes true into the bear's left shoulder Cumulative Damage to Bear: 11. The bear is now fully aware of Rhaucred's location as it feels pain. The bear lets our a roar bearing it's teeth. The roar awakes Prax and Nelvik. We are now in combat.
Movement: The bear charges up to Rhaucred and will take two attacks against the rogue who hurt it.
1st Attack Bite: Attack: 23 Damage: 3
2nd Attack Claws: Attack: 13 Damage: 6
The bear opens it maw and bites Rhaucred's side dealing 5 points of damage to Rhaucred. The bear then attempts to follow up with a swipe at Rhaucred's throat but the rogue is too fast and ducks out of the way.
Updated Map:
OOC: Everyone may now post their turn. As a refresher, here is how combat works and what you are allowed to do: https://olddungeonmaster.com/2014/07/26/dd-5e-quick-reference-combat/ Each grid square counts as 5 feet. Also, please update your character sheet accordingly if you take damage or heal.

After hearing the loud roar Prax crawls out of the tent and stands right in front of the tent. Prax sees the monstrousity attacking Rhaucred. Prax brings his staff forward and veins begin to bulge in his forehead as he screams the chant of fire bolt.

Nelvik stands up from prone. Drawing his longbow he moves to C11. Nelvik yells towards praxs tent "Prax get out here and conjure up another spider or something!!" As he moves towards C11 he loads an arrow. Takes aim and attacks. Attack: 9 Damage: 11
Rhaucred in one fluid motion after dodging the bears claws drops his shortbow and draws his rapier and cuts a deep gash across the bears face. When the rapier makes contact the bear comes surrounded with a white rippling energy. The bear is not looking good.
The bear recoils in pain at the same time Nelvik and Prax emerge from their tents. Nelvik draws his longbow and fires a shot at the exact same moment a scream cries out from Prax as a firebolt flies from the gnomes hand. Nelviks arrow begins flies faster and strike the bear in the right side. Before the bear can register the pain it’s body is enveloped in pain.
The bear rises up on hits hind two legs and lets out a death cry. It’s flaming body begins to fall forward onto Rhaucred and Creolina when Creolina dives forward plunging her long sword into the bears chest taking its last breath while pushing the bear back.
The bears falls backward and now along with the fireplace you have a burning bear for light. The smells is not the most pleasant but some of you may feel like you need a midnight snack.
OOC: You are now out of combat. Well done everyone! For brevity reasons I will post the remainder of the night. Feel free to post something you do before going back to sleep if you like. Everyone may now click the Long Rest button to regain lost HP and spell slots.
The second watch passes with no danger as does the third.
You awaken to a foggy morning and a smoky bear. If you wish to make any preparations before continuing on please post so now. If you wish to do something specific for example such as scouting ahead please be specific as far as how far ahead you are scouting and if you are more concerned about scouting quickly or stealthily.

You have now reached Creolina. What is next?
From behind Creolina I'm going to try to shake him awake, (or her?) And as they start to wake I'm going to tell them there is a bear to the south.
After they are awake I'd like to fire an arrow at it.
Attack: 23 Damage: 11

20 to hit. Burning Damage 8

Creolina stand up from prone, draws her Longsword and swings at the Black Bear as Nelvik goes darting by.
Attack: 18 Damage: 4
EDIT: Sorry about the spam. Figured out how the dice works now in the combat section.
Prax hears Nelviks plea and says “the spider isn’t real! It is useless but I will try something”
"You couldn't just get scared away, you had to freaking wake everyone up!"
I'm going to drop my bow, draw my rapier, and use booming blade
Attack: 18 Damage: 10
"and then you had to go and bite me! I know you are a damn bear, but that was really stupid!"
Rhaucred in one fluid motion after dodging the bears claws drops his shortbow and draws his rapier and cuts a deep gash across the bears face. When the rapier makes contact the bear comes surrounded with a white rippling energy. The bear is not looking good.
