Sinjin crawled out if his bunker and brushed himself off.
"Well that went better than expected." He said honestly and looked around "Is everyone ok?" Sinjin asked and closed his spell book, returning it to his belt.
Rhogar sees sinjin pop out from his bunker. He walks over to sinjin and claps him on the shoulder with a sincere smile. “ well done brother.”
He signals the party to regroup around the downed bandits Vail is guarding. “Aye I think our new friends are the ones that need help. So what do we do with these cowardly bandits?”
OOC: OK, wait a sec.... why are you congratulating each other. We're still in initiative. There's still one alive (or awake) on the right and 2 running on the left.
Nouvis charging headlong after Tauriel trips over a root and in a most spectacular display somehow manages to get her head wedged between the Y in two branches and snaps her neck suffering 44 points of damage.
occ: I know it's not my turn yet but I may not be able to post again tonight so if it gets to me....
Oslamir moves to guard the two sleeping bandits, aiming his loaded crossbow at them in case they awaken. Once the other bandits have been dealt with and the rest of the party is ready, I would like to wake these two and question them...
"Who are you and why did you attack us? What do you know about the caravan shipments that have gone missing recently? Are there others in your group? Where are they located? (insert any questions anyone else would like to ask)."
Ooc: indeed! Sorry for delay! Can I chase after the two guys running? I’ll use one action for 30ft if that gets me close enough and make a swipe at one with my sword. If it’s too far I’ll use an action to sprint and catch up.
ooc- Correct. I have a race feature that lets me do a bonus horn attack so I'm different. You can still use a bonus action if you have anything that can be done during one.
Rhogar runs in front of the bandits fleeing. He shouts “ you chicken shits are too cowardly to even be good at robbing people.” While laughing. Attempting to draw them into a fight.
Oslamir wakes one of the sleeping bandits and does succeed in spectacular fashion at scaring him to death. Vails voice getting suddenly deep and gravely he pounds him with questions until he sees a dark stain appearing on the bandits pants. Sputtering the bandit is shaking "Honest sir, is all Milo's fault. He put us up to it. We were just gonna scare ya and take yer gold. he said we wasn't gonna hurt no one. He says thems all soft rich folk in that halfling house aint none of em gonna wanna fight. Please don't kill me. I dont know nothin about no caravan" He breaks down into wailign sobs "I'm soooorrrry, times are so hard and i aint smart enough to do nothin but beg, pleeease, pleeease don't kill me"
Vail does catch up to one of the fleeing bandits and slashes him across the back killing him in one mighty stroke. The other seeing this falls to the ground in a fetal position yelling "I surrender, I surrender!"
ooc: I think that catches us up and you are out of initiative as there are no bandits left willing to put up a fight
Rhogar walks over to the one vail woke up. He says in a cool calming voice. “ aye you have nothing to worry about.” With a smirk on his face. “ so which one is Milo, your leader?”
He looks around sees the other bandit thats still asleep and point "That's him right there! He's the one ya want. You should talk to him and let me go"
Hearing the man's story, Oslamir's face quickly changes from anger to sympathy. This man is obviously no fighter or true bandit. We wake up Milo and ask him the same questions, "I understand better than anyone what it's like not knowing where your next meal will come from. Feeling trapped, without any hope, knowing that stealing might be the only way to put food in the belly of people you care about but threatining to kill and rob people is not going to solve your problems, only make them worse. Trust me. I'm sorry things got out of hand and if what you say is true then I am truly sorry your friends had to die but if you want to return home to your family you will tell us everything you know about the missing caravans.... and know that if we find out you lied to us, we will come back and find you."
"I don't know nothing about no caravan sir, honest. This is my first time doing anything like this! I overheard some funny looking folks talking at the bar about how easy the pickens were. They's the ones that gave me the idear. I just thought with thems fancy folk who come and go from that halfling house we could get us some coin. I'm sorry we snared yer friend and I was never really gonna shoot her with that arrow, really i wasn't, we was just tryin to scare ya some"
Sinjin crawled out if his bunker and brushed himself off.

Ooc - is Nuovis still with us?

Nope, she left the campaign. I'll take her over as an NPC for now and then kill her in a most dramatic fashion <evil grin>

Ooc— haaa whomp whomp. my bad I thought we were out bc they alerted running. Getting back on track Do we know how far away are the bandits running?
So back on track it's Vails move.
There are still 2 running away to the left and one gored by Tauriel on the right.
It's been half a round so the ones running are about 45 feet away.

attack: 21
damage: 13
Rhogar shouts for back up as he DASHes forward to try and engage or cut off the fleeing bandits.
Ooc- when I dash I can’t make an attack correct?
ooc- Correct. I have a race feature that lets me do a bonus horn attack so I'm different. You can still use a bonus action if you have anything that can be done during one.
