Boren
The large man adjusts his horned helmet on his head, also scanning the camp. He held two throwing axes, one in each hand. As he licked his lips, obviously ready for battle he looked down the line of vikings gathered with him and nodded grimly.
"I'm told their leader has magic at his back. What type I'm unsure. There are probably sentries about the camp, so keep your guard up."

As two Gnoll sentries appear at the edges of the camp Boren wastes no time and one of his throwing axes splits the air, aimed at the closest Gnolls head.
