Intrigued by a group containing a necromancer and a paladin, Bran makes up his mind to follow them at a distance.

Well, even if the quest is a bust, the eventual fight between the necromancer and the paladin might be song worthy.

Waiting until they all leave, Bran stands, and moves towards the door.

Following them through some light woods, Bran does his best not to be seen or heard.

With that in mind, perhaps we should be off, I am ready as soon as everyone else is, all of my spells are prepared today and I have nothing to pack, and the sooner we get this over with the sooner we can leave any UNDESIRABLE company behind. Korish speaks this last bit as, yet again, he stares poison and daggers at Ari.
"I will not arrest you for two reasons. The first- We will soon be working together. The second- In fact, I care little whether you practice necromancy. Whatever my god may believe, Necromancy can be used for good or evil, as can any skill. I will not arrest you for it while you stick to the former. What I take issue with is your lack of respect. You began attempting to insult and belittle me as soon as we met, with no provocation. I will not suffer to be constantly insulted. Contain your bias, or remove yourself from my company." Ari says sternly, then closes his visor and walks out of the tavern to join the others.

"Coming with us, then?" Dest says as he notes the movement and sound of snapping twigs beneath the feet of a humanoid figure, walking through the forest. "Welcome aboard."

When the party, now assembled, reaches the Cairn, Dest takes a look in each direction. "Though I make no claim to leadership, I'd like to cast a vote against approaching the snarling wolves just yet."

Inniel gestures toward the skeleton and blanket.Well, finding that blanket was the reason I came, but I think retrieving it can wait until we've taken care of the wolf issue.Inniel takes a defensive stance and draws a steel pick from a strap on his side.

Inniel draws his heavy pick.

Ari

Ari says nothing on the trip. He keeps his visor down and his hand on the hilt of his longsword. When he sees the wolves, he moves to the front of the group and draws his sword.

Leon Arden

Leon will respond to any attempts at conversation from the group, however he is content to remain a quiet observer of the evolving dynamic of the group.

When he sees the wolves, Leon moves up to Ari and brings his shield up to a more defensive posture and draws his bastard sword.

"I am willing to leave the snarling wolves alone for the moment as well, as long as they are willing to do the same."

Korish looks around and speaks up {In Common} I don't really feel to fond of the idea of approaching the wolves myself, but I would like to check out that skeleton, maybe see what it died of then Korish grumbles something about it being dark, even with the sigils spinning around his head giving off light, Korish begins to cast a spell.

Well stranger, I appreciate non-violent solutions but I've never known wolves to favor diplomacy.

Irritated by the fact he had been seen, Bran answers Dest.

"Yes" Bran sighs, "I'm coming along for the ride..." he says in a somewhat disappointed tone.


This would have made for a much better song if I had been able to come to the rescue...

As they continue walking, Bran stays quiet, trying to make mental notes of each person's personality so he might portray them right in his lyrics.

Coming to the cave, and seeing the wolves...

"Hrmm...a cave guarded by wolves...that just won't do. It needs something scarier, like giants or a dragon..."

Bran thinks to himself...

Although I'm glad it's not either of those things...

Full Defence is a full-round action. So you made a Defence action..still a boost in AC. the Wolves all three get their readied actions. Sooo...we have attack rolls..bite attacks..with trip! at that..they are all three attemping trips.

Wolf 1: (1d20+3)[17] Attack roll
(1d6+1)[2] damage
(1d20+1)[18] DC to not be tripped.

Wolf 2: (1d20+3)[13] Attack roll
(1d6+1)[5] damage
(1d20+1)[13] DC to not be tripped.

Wolf 3: (1d20+3)[16] Attack roll
(1d6+1)[4] damage
(1d20+1)[15] DC to not be tripped.

I hope that works..

Leon Arden
Initiative: 14
AC: 19
HP: 9

Seeing the wolves attack his companions, Leon hikes up his shield and moves towards the closest animal. With a deep breath, he lunges forward and lashes out with his over sized blade in a simply diagonal slash.

Attack - (1d20+2)[8]
Damage - (1d10+2)[10]

Korish, seeing his friends in peril, finishes casting his Summon Familiar spell and starts casting Magic Missile, aiming for the closest uninjured wolf.

Seeing the wolves, Dest moves to Ari's aid, taking a series of careful, though seemingly haphazard steps up to the wolves, ending his bizarre approach with a stab from his elven rapier, striking at the wolf from the side while it preoccupied itself with his more heavily armoured companion.

Bran

Spoiler


Seeing everyone inch into combat, Bran sighs inwardly...

And so they methodically, and with much fear, attacked the wolves...

Bran sighs out loud.

That will never do...

Bran pulls out his whip from his belt and moves toward the wolves, making sure to keep the 'armored guy' inbetween himself and the wolves.

I think most everyone has done Initiative and I'm up, so:

Moving forward with his pick ready, Inniel let's loose a shout and weaves into a strike position. He swings his pick, hoping to connect with a wolf's neck.

Move to the nearest wolf and Power Attack for one, pick in both hands.

A moment of frustration at his feeble, quickly quashed, washes over Leon. He takes a half step backwards to give himself room and then lunges forward at the wolf once more.
