Re: King Maker Solo
The arrows begin to annoy Vindariel, but he is low on mental energy and needs to keep his focus.
So he draws his own bow and aims at the bandit that freed himself
Spoiler
Did I manage to kill the bandits around me? Cool
If I missunderstood that and I'm still in melee I'll of course keep wacking at the two

Re: King Maker Solo
The bandit is in obvious pain from the attack, but not down. He continues to try to help free his boss.
Spoiler: OOCYes, you did kill them. I fudged the one guy's ac down 1 so there wasn't another round where nothing happened.

Re: King Maker Solo
The bandit collapses to the ground after he is struck with the second arrow. More arrows fly towards you, though all of the others have been deflected by your force shields.

Re: King Maker Solo
The bandit hampered by the moving terrain made a good target for Vindariels bow.
He took his shot. after that he took up his sword again and moved east towards the second tower, so he could take shelter under it from one of the shooters.

Re: King Maker Solo
Your arrow misses the freed bandit. He trudges towards you, sheathing his sword and readying his bow. His and two other arrows fly your way, as Kressle still struggles to free herself.

Re: King Maker Solo
The freed bandit finally gets clear of the grasping vines and roots, now standing firm near the logs (M12). The bandit in the western tower fires at you again, as well as the one by the logs. The thug on the eastern tower prepares for you to climb the ladder, drawing his sword. Kressle is now shouting profanities as she makes no progress in freeing herself.

The arrow hurts and Vindariel can no longer keep the concentration necessary to maintain the effect. Instead he drops the bow and charges the remaining bandit on the ground. With a cry of fury he tries to behead his attacker.Last edited by Pyrophilios; 2017-10-26 at 03:16 PM.

The bandit is indeed beheaded, and drops to the ground. Only Kressle and the two on the tower remain. Finally free, Kressle charges at you, axes raised high.

Re: King Maker Solo
Kressle, too eager to join the fray and off balance from her charge, is killed instantly. While you expect more arrows to fly your way, you see instead that the remaining bandits have jumped down from their perches and are fleeing into the woods, routing at the loss of their captain. You are victorious.
Spoiler: OOCSo I forgot to mention this before, but you were in the previous tile long enough to consider it explored.
Terrain: Forest
Features: Fey Nest
Status: Explored; +100xp
While I'm writing these up, here's what you got for the tile your in now:
Terrain: Forest:
Features: Bandit Camp
Status: Visited
Here's the aftermath of the fight:
+1,480xp
Loot: Potion of cure light wounds, studded leather armor, 2 masterwork handaxes, 4 daggers, 85gp + (leather armor, longbow, 15 arrows, short sword, 2 trail rations, 10gp)x6
And that's just from the bodies. There may be more things around the camp, once you poke around some.

Re: King Maker Solo
Vindariel watched as the bandits started to flee - he wanted to catch one alive. So he concentrated and tried to subdue one of them with his mind before he went out of sight.
Spoiler
If at all possible, I'll use one last instance of Slumber on one of the fleeing bandits
Will Save DC 15 (120ft. reach for the spell)
I'll take 20 to search the place
With that done, he went over all the fallen bodies, checked if anyone was still alive and if so bound their hands and feet after removing their clothes down to their loin clothes.
This time he dug a mass grave for the dead, but not before removing the required heads to claim the bounty at Oleg's.
After that was done, he carefully searched the camp for the hidden treasures of the bandits, weapons and personal belongings. He especially took care to search the hems of their clothes as well as their boots for sewn in gems or coins.
Riding horses were likewise useful and valuable - beside the fact that now no-one was left here to take care of them.
When that was done, he took a rest to regain power and to heal a bit. Afterwards he packed up loot, heads and possible prisoners and put them on horseback.
Afterwards he went back to Oleg in a straight line, visiting but not exploring the territory lying between here and there.

Re: King Maker Solo
You find a stockpile of stolen items stashed underneath some supplies. Loading everything up might be an issue, though there are two more horses present, and the cart in the road would be usable if you took some time to replace the missing wheel.
Spoiler: L00tThere's some food, firewood and tents if your interested. In the stash is the following:
321sp, 90gp
Pair of silver earrings (Appraise DC 10)
A wooden music box (DC 15)
Three crates of furs (DC 10)
and a polished wooden case, filled with 8 bottles of a green liquor (DC 20)
Also the will check to see if you can subdue one of the bandits: (1d20-1)[7]
Make one appraise check for me to estimate the values of the various items. Hitting the DC means you know the price, missing means you are either high or low.

Re: King Maker Solo
Fixing the wagon sounds like a fine idea. Thanks to his astral repair skills, it's no problem to return the cart to functionality.
Loading up gear, loot and prisoner and hitching the horses in a line, Vindariel turned straight towards Oleg's outpost.
Spoiler
Astral Repair can restore hitpoints even to destroyed objects, so fixing the cart should be no trouble at all.
I'm 50XP shy of the next level (btw. I replied in the OCC), so the next explored hex will bring me there.
I assume the bandit's heads will be enough prove to collect the bounty on Oleg's black board

Re: King Maker Solo
You value the earrings to be worth 150gp, and each crate of furs to sell for 50gp each. The music box and liquor are both harder to estimate, being of unusual quality. You feel confidant that 85gp is close to the right price for the music box, and you guess that each of the 8 bottles could go for about 25gp.
You hastily make your way back to Oleg's, slowed only by your cargo and the woods your team of horses pulled it through. Your return to the trading post causes quite a stir, seeing how you return wich much in the say of spoils.Last edited by Eonn; 2017-10-28 at 11:49 AM.

Re: King Maker Solo
Ignoring for a moment the stir, Vindariel went straight to Oleg:
"I have eliminated a bandit camp - and brought enough heads to collect the bounty. I'll entrust you with the loot to sell it - including the cart and the horses.
I have also a captured bandit. I need to keep that one separate from the other one, so I can interrogate them and compare their stories.
This Stag Lord is still somewhere out there."
That done, he searches the Kesten Garess and shows him the heads and his captive:
"Is one of those that traitorous member of your crew?
Anything you can tell me about that Falgrim Sneeg?"
Spoiler
The following items I'll sell:
horses x3
cart
Masterwork Hand Axe x3
Daggers x4
Leather Armor x6
Longbow x6
Short Sword x6
Pair of silver earrings
Three crates of furs
I'll keep the alcohol and the music box for now.
That done, he begins to interrogate the two prisoners - gladly accepting help from the mercenaries if they want to.
He is interested to learn more about their boss, where he is and who else is with him, how their camp is protected and anything useful beyond that.

Re: King Maker Solo
Oleg interjects before you head to Kesten. "By any chance, did you find a ring in there? My wife's wedding ring, those bandits pried it right off her finger the first time they came through." You do not remember seeing a ring anywhere in the camp.
"As for the men you've captured, the guards have been holding him in one of the middens. It'd be easiest to talk to the one you just got now, and bring the first up once your done."
While Kesten is happy to sign off on the general bounty, he shakes his head solemnly when asked about Sneeg. "Falgam is a man who knows his way around the battlefield. It wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't in charge of his own group. Unless this Stag Lord has decided to keep him close."
While you discuss this, the bandit you have just captured is taken into the storeroom (which now has some things in it), and bind him to a chair in preparation for questioning whenever your ready.
You see Svetlana occasionally poke her head out, only to see that you're keeping busy. It seems she wishes to talk to you once you finish your business.
Spoiler: OOCOleg offers to buy the horses and equipment for 868gp, and the earrings and fur for 300gp. He only has 500gp on hand though, and will need to send things into town to pay the rest.
Essentially, you'll get 500gp now and 668gp in a week. He also has 500gp worth of goods in stock if you'd like to trade, and he can order in more expensive items as needed (which will also take a week to arrive).
