Lilith

"Ah! That looks like a good spot to rest. Lets rest here for the night." Lilith heads towards the hill top first, checking it if it's actually safe or not.

Perception Check: 11 (or -2 to the roll for investigation)

Lilith looks for any sign of movement from within and around the trees. The trees move slightly as the wind moves a few branches and there is the faint noise of a few small creatures that have made this small section of woodland their home. 

(OOC- Hey guys I have to leave town till Wen. DM please bot me. )

(OOC - Ok Brightree, will do)

Blightree 

Blightree steps forwards rubbing his hands together “The forest should keep us safe. I’ll pitch my tent if somebody wants to get a fire started” Upon finding a small area within the forest, Blightree grabs the tan coloured cloth from on top of his backpack and starts attempting to erect his tent. 

Chad will also attempt setting up his tent. It is apparent to the others Chad is not one for sleeping in tents. A few curse words escape his mouth, but he has now managed to set up shelter. Chad begins to moves sticks together into a pile and snaps his fingers, lighting the pile of sticks. 

Zack makes sure the oxen are secured nearby, so they don't wander off, but makes sure they have places to eat, though he realizes there's no water around for them. A problem he'd attempt to solve soon. if he could. For now, he offloaded his backpack, and pulled out his tent, setting it up with the ease of years of practice doing it on the fly, his was up within a minute or two. Laying out his bedroll, and blanket. 

Just as he did so Chad lit a campfire nearby, but Zack noticed Chad hadn't prepared a pit... or rocks... and quickly comes over, digging his sword into the ground nearby, and hefting it like a shovel, to create a small 'crater' of dirt around it, even if Chad protested, telling him without this the whole area could go up in flames from a stray ember. Once that was done, he'd shout to the whole group So uh... Who's gonna take watches? It'd be best if people who could see at night would do so.. but I will take first watch if no one else will volunteer? OH also.. can anyone create water or uh... ice? Something that the Oxen can drink?

Blightree

After setting up his own tent, Blightree  watches as Chad grabs a few sticks together and easily lights them with a click of his fingers. (It’s a shame to see wood being burnt this way but the branches were already dead) He shouts out “Ah, it’s good to have a man of such talents with us. I can never get a tinderbox to work” Once the fire is letting of enough light to the area Blightree is going to search around for any sign of any mushroom growth within the area. 

Investigation 15 

Blightree discovers a small patch of orange coloured mushrooms that are meaty and funnel shaped. He believes them to be Chanterelle mushrooms and he's quite sure they're edible.

Hearing Zack's question, he closes his eyes, mutters some words while clasping his hands together and casts Frostbite in a controlled manner to form two small balls of ice.

"Nice find, Lilith!" Nadia says, giving her fellow elf companion a pat on the back on finding a suitable place for them to rest. She wasted no time in hitching up her tent and assisting the others in doing so as well (if they looked like they needed it, or didn't shoo her away when offered). "I don't mind sharing my tent with anyone else." She offers in general, just in case. When Zack asks the question in regards to water, the elf shook her head. "Sorry, kinda useless in that department," She gives a short laugh. "But I have some water in my water skin I could share with everyone? Promise I'm not sick!" She quips with a smile, holding up her water skin for the others to see.

Lilith

"Hm... I don't have the spell prepared right now but tomorrow morning I could make us and the oxen all water, if you don't mind waiting. And um... if its alright with you Nadia, can I sleep in your tent? I can keep first watch as well, but someone needs to keep second watch. I have to sleep after all." Lilith let's out a little giggle as though she's just told a joke of some kind. As the fire is lit she sits near to it and begins to eat her rations. Once she's finish eating, she will go to the oxen and feed them as well, apologising for the lack of water. "I'll have water for you two tomorrow, I promise." She gently pats their heads as she speaks.

Blightree 

Blightree stands with the ice balls in his hands and offers them to Zack. 

“I take up most of the room in my tent but there should be just about enough room for Gribz to share with me. As for keeping watch, my vision in the dark isn’t brilliant”

(OOC - Evening watches will be split into two groups, each keeping watch for 4 hours. Whoever decides to take these watches, roll Perception. A long rest isn’t 8 hours of straight sleeping, if there is an activity that you’d like to spend a small amount of time doing then mention that too)

Lilith

(OCC - Lilith will take first watch with whoever else wants to)

Perception check: 13

(OOC -short on time before work, quick posting)

Zack would nod his thanks, taking both the ice balls near the oxen. they could atl east lick off it to hydrate themselves a little at a time. Zack would rather leave watches up to people who can see in the dark!

Nadia is more than happy to share her tent with Lilith when she retires off from her watch. Nadia herself opts to take the second watch, agreeing with Zack in his suggestion of letting those who could see in the dark take care of it. The elf was fine with taking her watch alone, but would happily accept anyone’s offer in staying up with her.

(OOC - Three of you have darkvision. Lilith, Nadia and Gribz. So far Lilith is on 1st watch and Nadia is on 2nd. If Gribz wishes to add assistance to either watch then he’ll need to roll for Perception. Nadia will need to roll too) 

Gribz

Gribz will thank Blighttree for offering space in his tent and join Lilith for the first watch.

Perception: 11

"Ahh... There's something about the open road that holds a special place in my heart." Gribz will say to Lilith, walking with her along the perimeter of the campsite for a bit. "I get antsy within city walls. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the comforts of civilization as much as the next guy. I just feel... Free when I'm travelling outdoors between shows. Maybe it's the fact that I'm one generation removed from sleeping in caves and wandering the land with a tribe... Whatever the reason, it's nice to get outside every now and then." Gribz will say with a smile.

The group begin to relax around the campfire, feeling its warmth as they each eat some rations. Gribz and Lilith keep an eye and an ear out towards the trees that surround them. After an hour of looking out, Gribz hears the cracking of a branch and a low snarling noise to the west of the camp. Seconds later, Lilith hears some movement in the bushes to the North East. 

Gribz

"Lilith! We may have company over here..." Gribz will say as he fumbles in his pack for a torch. He will light it in the campfire and hold it in his off-hand while holding a scimitar in the other. Gribz will watch the area he heard the noise from, staying within the perimeter of the campsite.

Lilith

"I can hear it as well..." Lilith brings out her mace and shield, preparing to fight.
