Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
Brother Derry
The monk eagerly pours himself out of the saddle, grasping the reings in one hand, and strides towards the nearest Lizardfolk. "Take the damned thing! You'd be doing me a favor!" He thrusts the reigns out towards the center Lizardfolk with the javelin in hand.Just in case, in any game I've applied to without being selected: DMs are more than welcome to use my submission as an NPC as they wish!

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
SpoilerQuoeak's checks
SpoilerKnowledge Geography and History:
Lizardfolk are well known as one of the savage races that were pushed into the Outlands during the settlement of Arcopolis. Their usual habitat is supposed to be swamp and marsh areas.
Knowledge Nature:
The surrounding forest consists mostly of coniferous trees growing on what would otherwise be plains. It's definitely not the optimal environment for lizardfolk.
Knowledge Religion:
Lizardfolk religion can vary, and is often imposed by a stronger race of creatures. There is nothing to indicate whether or not these lizardfolk are religious.
Bardic Knowledge:
It's very odd to see lizardfolk outside of their preferred environment. You don't know why they wouldn't continue searching for an area that's at least more humid and instead hunt in the forests.
Spot and Listen checks:
You notice nothing out of place, but then you hear the growling of one of the lizardfolk's stomach, provoking closer examination. Though you're not entirely sure, the lizardfolk look rather frail, and you can almost see the ribcage in some of them.
The lizardfolk look confused and begin muttering to each other in Draconic.
For Quoeak and probably Minus (no bonus languages are listed but no wizard in their right mind turns down draconic).
Spoiler"What did they say?"
"I dunno, I think they're bounty hunters."
"Bounty hunters? Are you sure?"
"Either way, we should kill them just to be safe. But wait for them to give up their stuff before we do."
You see the lizardfolk's eyes widen and his mouth begin to drool when he looks at the horse up close. Suddenly he rushes the horse and tries to bite into it. In response, the horse rears up and kicks at the lizardfolk, hitting him squarely in the face. The javelin-user hits the ground, unmoving. The others on that side are stunned for a moment, unsure of what to do, and left side trio shouts over to check if they're ok, checking their grip on their weapons while they do.
Surprise Round (you can post regardless of order this round)!
Initiative:
Minus: (1d20+7)[25]
Quoeak: (1d20+2)[16]
Cutter: (1d20+8)[16]

"<Either way, we should kill them just to be safe. But wait for them to give up their stuff before we do.>"
Those words echoed in my head again and again. We had to kill them before they killed us. This was an optimal time for action.
But what were those lizardfolk doing here? This was no swamp.
Then, I remembered their growling stomachs. Of course!
Hunger. That was why they wandered out; that was why they were attacking us and taking our money and our horses.
Do I risk my life and ask them why, or do I kill them and risk a valuable source of knowledge that could potentially led us to Maverick?
...I liked living.
I hopped off my pasty coloured horse and wielded my walking stick as threateningly as possible. Then, I started reciting a dwarven epic in the goblin language.
"U', muk uku, dr'n' 'uk u rukno, rukno t'unv..."
I just hoped that my grunting was passable for words of encouragement...

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
Minus groans as he hears the lizardfolk talking.
"So be it! Ha!"
Minus barks out an incantation, and a large badger materializes in between Minus and the lizardfolk to his left. With a command from Minus, it lunges at the lizardman.

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
Quoeak's song helps the fight, letting the others strike a little better, though how well they make use of it is limited.
Minus' spell goes off perfectly but the badger's claws only hit the dense scales of the lizardfolk it strikes.
Brother Derry's manages to land one punch that knocks the wind out of the lizardfolk but doesn't knock it down, and the other two strikes hit air.
Cutter shows some great accuracy, firing a shot that hits his target in the heart, the lizardfolk falling over with little more than a grunt.
Andrew stumbles at getting off his horse and hits the ground off balance, and spends the next moment regaining his balance.
The remaining lizardfolk are slow to react and remain surprised for a moment.
SpoilerEveryone except Andrew gets another round before enemy initiative kicks in.

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
Brother Derry finally manages to subdue the Lizardfolk, who falls unconscious to the ground.
Cutter's arrow hits the javelin-user straight-on, but only wounds him.
Minus' crossbow bolt misses entirely, but the badger manages to sink his teeth into the lizardfolk he was attacking, the creature screaming in pain. (You forgot to consider Augment summoning into the Badger's rolls.)
Quoeak continues to support the others and remains wary.
Their brains finally turning on, the Lizardfolk begin to react. The lizardfolk that's afflicted with a severe case of badger struggles against the creature, drawing a lot of blood and making the badger angrier. The remaining Javelin lizardfolk tries to retaliate against Cutter, but his throw is rather pathetic and the javelin clatters on the ground and skids right under Cutter's horse. The lizardfolk on the top left charges in and attacks Andrew, managing to strike with the club.
SpoilerOk, Andrew then everyone else can go, since the slowest lizardfolk was incapacitated all of your turns are consecutive now.
Andrew takes 4 damage from the lizardfolk. I forgot to consider spell duration for summon monster, so the badger keeps the extra turn but disappears when Minus moves (so no more actions from the badger).

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
SpoilerTailiu: You technically shouldn't be able to both concentrate and feint in the same round, but that's a pretty interesting way to go about it so I'll allow it for this case.
Brother Derry moves to assist Andrew, striking at the lizardfolk from behind in attempt to subdue it. The lizardfolk takes a moment to register what Quoeak just said, and then he stops and his face wrinkles up as he tries to process what just happened, taking a punch to the back of the head, lucky enough that Andrew's rapier hit his scales instead of piercing.
Minus' crossbow shot hits the bottom left lizardfolk right on his bite mark, causing it to hiss in pain but otherwise causing little damage.
Cutter's shot barely skids by the other lizardfolk, leaving a minor cut.
The the lizardfolk on the right gets really pissed off by Quoeak's feint, and tries to charge him. Fortunately this leaves Brother Derry and Andrew a chance to attack it, and both their strike connect, leaving the wounded lizardfolk unconcious.
The middle left lizardfolk limps over to his fallen comrade and takes his club, and attempts to shuffle over to Cutter.
The lower left lizardfolk picks his club back up and moves toward Minus, bleeding heavily and full of anger.

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
The two remaining lizardfolk topple under the assault, leaving the group in peace, at least for the moment.
As you recuperate, you have one more issue to address. Three of the lizardfolk are unconscious, one of them to soon bleed out. If you let them live, you may regret it as they know what you're really out here for. But they were merely looking for food, desperation driving them to fight. Do they really deserve to die because you were too slow to remember your cover identity? What do you do?
SpoilerThe combat may be over, but you still have to address the last part of the encounter. A bunch of good-aligned people have a difficult decision on their hands now.

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
Cutter expertly stabilizes the one bleeding lizardfolk, and determines that the other two are fine and should wake up soon.
Meanwhile Brother Derry walks over to the edge of the tree trunk to see how easy it would be to get around, but before he makes it all the way an unusually large bear suddenly crashes out of the woods, charging into him and grabbing him as it plows into the trunk, causing it to spin around and eventually back on the bear, throwing it into the woods along with the unlucky monk still in the bear's mouth. Bewildered by the tree, the bear charges back into the woods at a blinding speed, and the sounds with it quickly fade. The tree trunk spins to a stop so that it runs parallel with the road, your path westward no longer blocked.
SpoilerBrother Derry has left the party due to Medic! disappearing without response for 3 straight weeks. As an FYI, you can't catch the bear.
The party gains 1000 xp each, and you all level up! Technically I was supposed to give less but level 1 is painful to balance properly and I'm sure we'd both like it to be over with.Last edited by Aldurin; 2013-01-27 at 01:47 PM.

The death of that odd monk - it was expected: they had warned us of the dangers of entering such an uncivilised and chaotic place. I will mourn for him, but I haven't time now. A more pressing question rebounded throughout my mind: what of the lizardfolk?
The lizardfolk will be angered once they awaken. What is our plan? No, I didn't know. What are their plans? What are my companions' plans?
Is our plan to interrogate the lizardfolk? We had slain their friends; it would be foolish to assume that they would agree to spill information. Were we to leave them there? They will die of starvation!
My companions will know - they must.
"What are we planning to do to the lizardfolk?"

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
As the bear crashes back into the undergrowth, Cutter is quick to follow. Sprinting on foot he charges after it. .... only to return a couple of minutes later.
"That is one fast bear. I could follow it's tracks for a bit, but we have no way of catching it on foot. And our horses can't travel through such thickets. Vengeance will catch up to him though. That is the way the world turns."
As Cutter looks around him, he wonders.
"This land is far more brutal then the forests I lived in. The bears there are scared of people and there are no lizardfold or anything like it. What did we get into....""Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."

Re: Maverick of the Outlands - The North Expedition
What did we get into?! The answer was simple: a mess.
Still, there were more pressing issues.
"Speaking of Lizardfolk..."
"...What should we do with these?"
