    "Do you think it's the one we're looking for?" Telim responds excitedly. "Is everyone ready to head in?"

    Oh, damn, I thought I said what and where the creature was, but I probably changed some wording and lost it. My apologies .


    Pryia nods "Might very well be. It looked like a sort of wolf...well,a cross between that and a hyena, I suppose. It was on the right, gnawing on something. "

    Miralynn enters the cave behind Priya, though she leaves a little room for a fighty-type to squeeze by. She tries peeking around again, her curiosity getting the better of her for a moment, while remaining as silent as she can be.

    "K" is a shaggy creature that looks like a cross between a wolf and a hyena, with a spotted coat and a bristling mane running down its spine. It is currently lying down but sniffing the air suspiciously, a large, meaty bone forgotten between its front paws.

    As you enter the cave, it springs to its feet with a snarl. Initiative: (1d20+2)[13]


    Remember that you have to move at 1/2 speed in the cave, due to the rough floor.

    Telim clenches his teeth as he moves forward with mace and shield ready.

    Do I enter the cave before we switch to rounds? If yes, I'll move to E7 if possible - else, I'll wait for my turn.

    Given that it needs a chance to jump up, I'll let you get to wherever you want in the cave (within reason!) before we switch to rounds.

    I've PMed Turk Mannion, since he hasn't posted here in a while, but I don't see any point in waiting for him to turn up, so Jess will sit this battle out unless Turk shows up soon.

    You can start your turn in D7, E7, F7, D8, E8, or F8. Miralynn is first.

    Jess shook his head and realized he had been daydreaming about his family. With an angry scowl, more at himself than at the creature, he pushed as far back toward the wall as he could and readied himself for battle.

    Sorry about the delay, work and home just smacked me around for a few days.

    You can put me at the bottom of the initiative order. I will start in D8 since I had been trying to hide in the shadows.

    Standing in E7, Telim spends a move action to put his mace away. He then spends his standard action to cast Shield of Faith on himself (+2 ac for one minute).

    The creature snarls again and its skin seems to peel back from its face, exposing the bone and muscle beneath! It gives an unearthly shriek, and heads towards Telim, stopping in E6.

    Everyone make a Will save.
    13+: You are shaken by the creature's shriek for 1 round (-2 attack, saves, and checks).
    <13: You are frightened of the creature and flee (on your turn) for 3 rounds.

    Pryia is next.

    Strawberries, you can't really specify direction as your main goal is 'away', but you do try to avoid other dangers. (Where were you wanting to run?)

    @ Savannah: I guess I don't have many options, as the only "away" path is outside the cave (to venture inside means to go nearer the creature). Could I stop just outside the entrance, in a place I consider "safe"?

    Jorkan snarls as the creature and charges angrily. He can feel fear prickling at his insides, but that was what being a warrior was about anyway.

    A sudden terror took hold of Jess, a feeling he had not experienced in combat, much less in life, in over thirty years. All rational thought fled his brain, all intentions of protecting his young companions were instantly forgotten, as he turned and weaved through the others, fleeing with all his speed.

    Move directly out of the cave, 120' (run speed). Sorry guys, looks like Jess is sitting this one out for a while.
