Northlands Campaign

Cade shrugs. "I can take other forms, but the bear is easily one of the best for combat." (Bear has 26 hp vs wolf of 11. Bear gets 2 attacks with a +6 to hit and doing 2d6+4 and 1d8+4 damage. Not sure what wolf gets, but believe it is only one attack. As a tanky fighter form, the bear winds hands-down imo. Wolf does get pack tactics and trip, but can only take one or two hits, where the bear can likely handle multiple hits and keep going.)

"I also have healing, though likely only able to do so once combat is done." Cade adds in. "Though, if needed, I can change back to my true form and heal, if someone is in danger of not making it through the battle."

"That's fine, just glad there are other options." 

"I can heal, inspire and even make you stronger with my voice my lovely friends" (cure wounds, bardic and enhance ability) "I can strike enemies down with a thunderous cord, put them to sleep with a lullaby or persuade them to do as I say" (Thuderclap, sleep and charm) " I have been trying my hand on this here bow and arrow and hope Mr. Wil can teach me a trick or two." Says Bart smiling large. 

Kina wonders what the others are up to and promptly plucks Bart up in her arms and deposits him on her back.
"Let's go see what the rest are up to." she says and arrives just in time to hear the speech.
"I may look large and tough but without armour, I'm a little more vulnerable.... though my particular martial discipline allows me to lightly heal myself and others around me, should it be needed." she says.
"At least it's a little harder to get around me should someone else be badly injured and need shielding... though I'm not keen on getting another sword in my flank, I'm a suitable obstacle to keep attention away from our wounded." she adds.
(Little out of order there, forgot to hit the post button!)

“Sure Bart, once we’re done here we can go over how to use a bow and practice hitting some targets.”

"Ohhhhh...... This is truly excellent!" Barnabus says as he claps his hands excitedly while balancing Fife with his elbow. We truly will be a force to reckon with! Now who wants to accompany me to the supply depot? The distance and time we have to travel will require some preparations." Barnabus scoops up Fife and strides off towards the depot. 

Kina looks over to Bart and with a completely straight face says,
"If you have some practice shooting from horseback, I'm sure you could do some fantastic work mounting me." she says, then ever so slowly looks over to Bart and gives the biggest, cheesiest grin ever, before she clears her throat.
"Seriously though, I'm strong enough to carry any of you; it wouldn't be a bad idea for those of you who are proficient with a bow to get in some practice while riding me. I may not be the swiftest centaur, but I'm fast enough that I can keep enemies without range from getting close."

Kina has won the flirt battle. Bart is completely flustered and only nods as he is placed on her back. And just nods to whatever anybody says.

Wil looks from Kina to Bart to Kina and back to Bart, shakes his head pinches the bridge of his nose and says, “By the gods above and below, will you two just have your pega-saurs already.....” and then, because he can’t hold it any longer, brakes out into big grin, happy for the two ahem, lovebirds.

Once at the depot Barnabus checks in with the duty officer. He confirms that the proper requisition have been made for their departure.

Kina doesn't have that much concern with the goods they managed to secure, but she does want to at least get rid of the silver baton she recovered from the ruins, and at least restock her healer's kits and rations, if nothing else.
"Do I have enough time for a quick stop in the market? I want to see if I can find anyone who will take this bauble. I certainly don't need it and I want to be certain I have sufficient medical supplies for the trip ahead."

(I’m thinking we’ve got at least a day so Rachel can get rested up and ready to continue so I don’t think hitting the market would be a problem.)

(OOC:  The Watch captain would offer to either hold or liquidate anything for you while you're gone at no charge.  Moorsedge is too small to get a decent offer on anything.)

Cade would be ok with someone liquidating the stuff while we are gone.

(OOC: On the lines of loot we got from the last place. I think we should do a more even split. Cade and whoever else did not take a magic item, both are suppose to get 7 K GP. That is outragious. Uncommon magical items only cost 500 GP, and Rare 5000 GP (or so on the rare items.) I suggest we split the loot evenly across the board, with anyone who took a magical item, just paying back in the amount for their magical item. If someone took an uncommon they would pay back 500 to the pot. Another option is to just split the gold evenly. Then those who did not get a magical item yet will get first dibs on one next time one is available if they wish.)

Kina heads to the market to pick up a few more healer's kits, 6 in total. Any more and she risks weighing herself down and reducing her capacity to be the party pack mule. She also shops for some higher quality camping supplies for cooking; rations are fine and all, but they only keep for so long and they're not very flavorful. She'd prefer to grill food she can catch or forage for than rely too heavily on rations. She also picks up some extra fabric and straps to make herself a secondary running harness should the one she has get damaged, and it would take too long for a tailor to make a new, high quality one.

In all, she only ends up spending some 32 gp and 9 SP for the supplies she wants.

She also goes shopping around for some climber's gear. In case they ever come to an obstacle she can't simply charge her way through, she may be called to climb, and without climbing gear, that could prove to be nearly impossible for her. (Which would cost another 25 GP)

Also, if available in what would be considered a small town, she seeks out simple healing potions. While she can heal with ki, potions save a lot of time and effort.

 OCC: Sure, I only suggested the original split because it's been my past experience that it's usually only the magic items people want and doing it this way usually satisfies any feelings of unfairness. And of course the ones who didn't get an item get dibs on the next round. Depending on the players/DM, coin is usually not really an issue or even needed beyond covering some low cost supplies or spell components. I've almost never been able purchase magic items beyond potions, scrolls or minor +1items so I don't even consider the "value" of the magic items in the split generally. Honestly I bet if we took a poll nobody would care that the coin split was 7k for the two that didn't get items. Of course if anybody feels different please say so. Ultimately that's why I even suggested a split for Rachel just to bring down the amount of coin that had to be split. Especially if we start using encumbrance. In the end it's my first time playing with this DM so I'm still working out what things are truly important and which things can be glossed over a bit for game play. But we can adjust the split however you want personally I say take the 7k and enjoy.)

 For taking on this effort on behalf of the Watch, they will cover the costs of the supplies you seek, including climbing gear, and can provide 10 Potion of Healing
