As you near the grate, you can see there are a total of four wolves in the makeshift cage. They growl as Chloe approaches the door but make no move towards her.

Brannik
[SHOW]

Checking the dead man's pockets, you find a small rusty key, a few coppers and a small pouch containing some kind of dried meat cut into small pieces.

Chloe

The wolves, being wild wolves, appear to be hostile, however from what you can tell they are hungry.

Go: Kass, Adrian, Gemma

Pocketing the coins but holding up the key and the pouch of pemmican, Brannik nods for Gemma to step over. "Boss?" she asks, quietly.

"Toss this meat in and check the lock with this key. I'll stand guard," the Bull commands her.

"On it." She takes them and steps over, taking out the strips of meat and gently sliding them under the grates. "Nice doggies," Gemma says in a sweet tone, trying for a moment at the lock, seeing if the key works, but not actually opening the grate door.

With the bandit dead, Kass proceeds forward with the others, shocked to see caged wolves at the end of the branch. As Gemma begins to unlock the grate, Kass says, "Are you sure about that? They don't seem too friendly."

"Just narrowing down what this key does," Gemma replies to Kass as she works. "Don't worry, I'm not letting them out."

"We're not leaving them here, though," Brannik makes known. "If we clear these idiot Whisperers out, then the wolves starve. The dogs may not be friendly, but they don't deserve that end."

"I agree," Adrian says, not wanting to see such innocent (if deadly) animals left to die in such a place. Stepping over the corpse of the recently-slain man, he tries to open the chest that his victim had been messing with.

As Gemma tries the key, the lock clicks, unlocking the grate. The wolves, however, pay no notice. Distracted by the new source of food provided by Gemma, their growls quickly subsiding.

Meanwhile Adrian finds the chest unlocked. Searching the chest he finds a couple more bags of pemmican, along with a large pile of rags and a few other miscellaneous mundane items.

"Well, looks like we've got a job to do before we leave this place, hm?" Brannik mentions as he notices the lock disengage at Gemma's trying of the key. "Let's get to finding the rest of these Whispering Cowards." Moving back to the central part of the cavern, the dwarf begins to investigate the paths more thoroughly.

Adrian
[SHOW]

Each bag of pemmican amounts to about a pound in weight. There is a pile of 10 large rags in various conditions, although all are a bit musty at best.

The other items in the chest are a four clay cups, a couple of 10 foot long ropes, a plain scabbard for a dagger sans dagger, a wooden bucket, and a fresh green apple.

As Brannik, Wes and Chloe head back into the tunnels, away from the wolf cage, the wolves finish wolfing down the last of the pemmican Gemma had tossed into their enclosure. All of them now look to Gemma and a couple let out a soft whine.

Adrian grabs the rest of the pemmican and tosses it in his pack, along with the two cleanest rags. He picks the apple up and takes a bit from it before making his way back down the tunnel. He moves past Chloë and Wes, stepping up next to Brannik. "You take left, I will go forward," he whispers to the dwarf, before stepping past him a little further into the cave.

OOC: If Adrian doesn't see any enemies at the end of his movement he will inspect the barrels.

The target of Kass' charge notices her approach, however it is too late and she is on him before he can even stand. She drives her sword through the man, sending him backwards falling to the ground, noticing his trousers are pulled down. He knocks over one of two buckets, splashing human excrement everywhere, including Kass, clearly this part of the cave is used by the bandits for reliving themselves.

Meanwhile, Wes charges the other bandit who hears him coming and is quicker to react. He manages to quickly draw his sword and block Wes' attack, the clash of steel on steel ringing around the nearby tunnels. However Wes is clearly the superior swordsman and breaks the man's block before cutting him down.

The others continue deeper into the cave.

As you move further up the tunnel, light from an unseen torch reveals that there is in fact only one way up ahead to go. Further up the tunnel you can see a natural bridge over head, the top of which you had seen earlier.

Spotting the treasure before him, Wes pockets the coin and jewelry. Returning back to the group, he says, "There's a couple nice rugs back there if anyone wants them after we take care of these scoundrels."

The group continues through the cave system. A short ways further into the tunnel you see light and hear the sounds of talking and laughing. Your round a corner and find yourselves standing in the entrance to a large cavern. The cavern is filled with beds, tables and campfires, along with other stockpiles of resources and plundered treasure. The cavern is also occupied by a large group of men, as a few of them notice you, their conversation dies down.

"Artin! Looks like we have some visitors," one of first men to spot you says, standing to his feet from the table he had been sat at.

"Well boys, let's show them our hospitality," another man replies, also standing up before drawing two axes from his belt. The others follow suit, drawing their own weapons. "Kill them," he orders. "Farryn, you better fucking help this time. We kept you alive for a reason," he adds pointing to an elf dressed in fine clothes.

"Hope you lot didn't start the party without us. I always hate when I'm late to these things," Wes says with a grin as they enter the bandit den. Rushing forwards, eyes set upon his two closest targets, he cleaves around him. His arcane blade glides through the air, the sheer speed and force slicing at his prey. "I'd sit this one out if I were you, Farryn," the knight shouts towards the out-of-place elf.

Wes immediately manages to cut one of the men down and hit the other. One of the more heavily armoured bandits rushes towards Wes and into the fray, however the young knight easily dodges his attack.

Another man makes his way closer to the group clustered by the cavern's entrance, however he pauses and instead of charging in he launches a dagger at Brannik. The throw is weak and the dwarf easily bats the dagger aside with his hammer.

As the battle begins anew against the apparent leader of the bandits and his minions, Chloë is quick to act. Spotting a suitably-clustered group of enemies, she summons a powerful gust of wind, which quickly dispatches with some of the weaker bandits while weakening the stronger.

[sblock=Mechanics]Move Action: move to (K, 20)

Standard Action: Tide of the First Storm centered on (K, 30)
Attack vs Bandit 6: 25 vs AC = hit

Attack vs Bandit 8: 31 vs AC = crit!
Attack vs Bandit 9: 27 vs AC = hit

Hit: Minions die. If hit, brigand takes 9 damage and is slowed until the end of Chloë's next turn.

No Action: prepared to use Shield as an immediate interrupt if an attack would hit her from a non-minion.[/sblock]

"So we've got you fuckers to thank for the trouble on the Steppe?" Brannik growls, his heavy boots padding along the cavern floor as he engages one of the brigands.

The gravity around the dwarf shifts at his command, and the Whisper before him feels an agonizing compression of his bones and soft organs. "Give up now, and I'll let you walk," Brannik offers. "Or crawl." He smirks, landing a crushing blow from his heavy maul on the man's flank.

Seeing the others quickly storm off into battle, Kass quickly joins them. Ignoring the nearly-dead foe before her, she sets her eyes upon a fresher start. She lands a devastating blow upon him, knocking him backwards into the hot embers of the campfire.

Kass' attack is successful in pushing the man into the fire, however manoeuvring into position leaves an opening and he man is able to strike her first, despite Brannik's best efforts at interrupting the attack.

"Don't just stand there and die. Fucking fight!" Artin shouts at the group of bandits, seeing the group of knights dispatch several men within moments.

The closest of the hooded men attacks from the side, positioning himself between Kass and Brannik, unleashing a flurry of quick short slashes and stabs. Kass manages to dodge the attacks but one of the man's daggers catches The Bull in a gap in his armour. The attack causes little more than a flesh wound but Brannik quickly begins to feel a burning sensation in his veins, emanating from the wound.

Seemingly spurred on by their leader's word, two of the other men charge into the fray, wailing on Kass who is quickly becoming surrounded.

"Stand, fight, it won't matter," Adrian says, as he rushes through the battle towards the apparent leader of the group of bandits. "The end result will be the same. Your pillaging ends here!" As he draws near he launches into a series of blows, the first of which staggering the man and allowing the Gleiosian to work the field to his advantage.

After the first, he follows up with a second, more powerful blow, leaving him feeling more powerful and invigorated. He shoves the man to the ground before leaping towards one of his lackeys, landing yet another powerful blow and shoving the brigand towards his gathered allies and their magical auras.

"Does this count as helping," the elf replies to Artin. As he mutters a few words, Brannik feels the air around him return to normal.

At the same time, the bandit pushed back by Adrian charges the Wind Dancer, managing to land a hit.

Artin doesn't reply but jumps to his feet quickly, seeing Adrian reengaged by one of the other bandits he charges into the fray instead taking a swing at the already wounded Kass, although she manages to dodge the blow.

Seeing Kass in trouble and her mentor weakened, Gemma launches toward the brawl. She slams her spear against her raised shield, Fausta's image emblazoned upon it. "We stand together, we fight together, we kill together!" Gemma cries, before letting out a guttural scream.

[sblock=Mechanics]Gemma

Move: Walk to M23

Minor: Healing Word on Kass, healing her 13 HP from 21 to 34 and unbloodying her.

Minor: Dragonfear on Bandit 1, Brigand 1, 2, 3, 4, Bandit Captain 2, Artin. Attacks vs. Will:18(1d20) +10 = 28; 20(1d20) +10 = 30; 9(1d20) +10 = 19; 13(1d20) +10 = 23; 10(1d20) +10 = 20; 11(1d20) +10 = 21; 9(1d20) +10 = 19

Those hit take a -2 to attack and grant CA until the end of Gemma's next turn.

"You lot should know it's improper to gang up on one person," Wes remarks with a grimace as he watches his cousin repeatedly take blows, surrounded on all sides. "It'd be high time someone taught you a lesson in manners, but I doubt you'll be too receptive to word. Maybe my blade can teach you."

As his says this, his arcane sword begins glowing a fiery red. With a smirk, he swipes at the trio in front of him, leaving them vulnerable to more should they take their eyes off him. Meanwhile, he rests his eyes upon Kass, looking for the opportunity to get her out of trouble.

[sblock=Mechanics]Minor: Aegis of Shielding on Brigand 4
Brigand 4 is marked, taking a -3 to attack rolls that don't include me. If these attacks should hit, the damage is reduced by 9

Standard: Sword of Sigils on Brigand 1, Artin, & Brigand 2
Attacks: 8(1d20) +14 = 22 +2 = 24 (Flank CA); 13(1d20) +14 = 27; 10(1d20) +14 = 24 vs AC = Hits
Damage: 2(1d10) +7 = 9

Each target is marked (-3) until EONT. Until it ends, any time they make an attack that doesn't include me as a target, they take 5 force damage. Additionally, I can interrupt and reduce their damage by 4 should the attack land.

Move: Rubicant Blade
Teleport Kass to M26, teleport Brannik to O26, and teleport Wes to O24

Ready Action: Dimensional Vortex
If anyone else (preference towards Kass if it happens) is hit with a melee attack, I interrupt this and teleport the attacker up to 5 squares. The attacker then makes this attack against the target of my choosing[/sblock]

One of the now weakened bandits, takes another swing at Kass, although this time he misses as is countered by Wes' magic. The smouldering campfire at the feet also hampers the man, setting fire to his trouser leg. On the other side of the cavern, one of the hooded men moves to flank Adrian and catches the Wind Dancer off guard, landing a powerful blow.

Go: Brannik, Chloë, Kass

[sblock=Mechanics]Wes: marks, hits x3, marks x3, teleports x3,

Brigand 2: misses Kass, takes 5 force damage, is bloodied, takes 3 fire damage from campfire

Bed rolls: Normal terrain[/sblock]
[sblock=Enemy Info]Bandit: Poorly armed and unarmoured, these are little more than men with a sword or axe.

Brigand: Larger and better equipped than their companions. They wear leather armour and wield broadswords and shields, they look like they can handle themselves in a fight.

Bandit Captain: These men wear leather armour and hooded cloaks. They appear light of their feet and their blades look to be poisoned.

Farryn: An elf who looks to be a magic user. Dressed in fine clothes.

Artin: The apparent leader of the bandits. He wears hide armour and wields two axes.[/sblock]

With the enemies all bunched together, giving Gemma quite the beating, Chloë moves to act. Knowing Brannik is best at dealing with many foes at once, she sends a powerful blast of wind at the clustered men in an attempt to push them away. As they move back she steps forward and unleashes yet another powerful gust, aiming to move them in position for Brannik and Adrian to deal the finishing blows.

[sblock=Mechanics]Standard Action: Beguiling Strands from (L, 21) - (P, 25)
Attack vs Artin: 16 vs AC = miss?
Attack vs Bandit Captain 2: 17 vs AC = miss?
Attack vs Brigand 1: 17 vs AC = miss?
Attack vs Brigand 2: 24 vs AC = hit
Attack vs Brigand 3: 31 vs AC = hit
Attack vs Brigand 4: 30 vs AC = hit
Attack vs Bandit 4: 24 vs AC = hit
Hit: 7 damage. Bandit 4 dies. Brigand 4 is pushed to (N, 26). If any of the others are hit, Artin would be pushed to (O, 27), Bandit Captain 2 would be pushed to (P, 26), and Brigand 1 would be pushed to (P, 27).

Move Action: move to (K, 22)

Action Point: Beguiling Strands from (L, 23) - (P, 27)
Attack vs Artin: 20 vs AC = hit?
Attack vs Bandit Captain 2: 30 vs AC = hit
Attack vs Brigand 1: 27 vs AC = hit
Attack vs Brigand 2: 23 vs AC = hit?
Attack vs Brigand 3: 16 vs AC = miss?
Attack vs Brigand 4: 32 vs AC = hit
Hit: 7 damage. If not already there from last attack, Artin would be pushed to (O, 27), Bandit Captain 2 would be pushed to (P, 26), and Brigand 1 would be pushed to (P, 27). No one else is pushed

No Action: prepared to use Shield as an immediate interrupt if an attack would hit her from a non-minion.[/sblock]
