Shattered Honour Chapter Two (Supply route)

Recommended Posts

In a wild streak of good fortune, the party realises that the hideously inactive Rine is still at camp! What luck! And you just thought he was really fucking quiet. The only actual Tascaran soldier thus out of the way, the rest of you pass through without event, and regroup over the next hill.

The way to the city is mostly uninterrupted, but when you're about a day away you see a fire in the distance. Certainly not a camp fire... something is legitimately blazing, and it's uncomfortably close to you.

A fire, or something like. Bilbo didn't care much for that. Might be a forest fire. It happens, he says to himself.

The fire is not immediately in his way, so he simply keeps walking, maintaining his pace to keep at a steady distance from Izdihar's glorious buttocks.

Bowel status: calm after the storm. He almost squeezed one through while passing the post.

Seeing the fire in the distance Izdihar almost gets excited about being able to slaughter a few enemies then roast and devour their corpses because she's a fucking psychopath. In any case, she turns toward the fire and picks up the pace at which she walked. Fortunately, no one could see her dumbass psycho smile. She would have made a call for everyone to pick up her pace and follow her if she was a talking person, but not only is she not one of those, but she would just go and fuck about herself if necessary.

Unfortunately for Bilbo, the 'not immediately in his way' quotient was kind of ruined when you get close enough to see that it's a caravan in the middle of the road. A few guards are still being slaughtered by brigands that vastly outnumber them. You could probably rush down in time to win the fight.

Seeing the fire in the distance, Leon slowed his pace down. 'Forest fires aren't common in these parts. Must be enemy soldiers.' He hesitated on what to do next when he saw Izdihar begin speeding towards it. 'Maybe I should go with her. Sure, she threatened me, but I'm not cruel enough as to let her go into battle alone... I should go with her before I change my mind.' With that, Leon started to jog closer to the fire, unaware of the woman's true intentions.

Izdihar rushes into the battle as fast as she can manage and attacks the ugliest shit she sees with her wonderful battleaxe.

"Oh, fuck me," Bilbo says, forgetting his loving manners.

Bilbo's weak will and a few shoves get him dragged into the shitty battlefield. Izdihar's already hacking away at some guy with a single eye and a twisted face, who looks to be a bandit, or so the rags he's wearing would imply.

"Shit."

His chubby legs are waddling him on.

He feels for his pouch and his crossbow.

Check.

"Fuck."

A mighty battle roar is heard, but not from Bilbo's mouth.

The first man Izdihar deems 'ugly as fuck' happens to be an already wounded bandit, who screams and goes down. The caravan guards cheer, and seem to fight on with something almost approaching vigour.

"What is she doing?!" Leon yelled at Bilbo. "They're too outnumbered to help out! Damn it... Alright, Bilbo stay behind me and try not to draw too much attention to yourself. Looks like this'll be a tough battle." Leon mentally prayed to his family for protection, 'Mother, father, everyone... please give me strength through this battle.'

Ibn quickly closes in on the battlefield. Watching Clarke carefully, he gestures subtly to his sister.

OOC: Ibn prepares to sneak attack the fuck out of Clarke as soon as somebody else attacks him. He'll auto-hit if they do. It should deal 7 damage per hit, so 14 damage total.

(The off-hand gets -1, but yeah, as long as someone else hits him you're good)

Leon's turn.

OOC: Not my off hand, I double him, with off hand I guess I get a third attack. Coolio.

Delves wasn't entirely sure why he hadn't bolted yet.

There were flames everywhere, the bandits he had fallen in with were under attack by some new group and things looked like they could go pear-shaped at any time.

Then again, that's exactly how Delves liked it.

((i exist guys))

'Alright, no turning back now.' Leon looked around at the enemy to see who was the most wounded. 'There,' he spotted him. Leon was about to attack, when he noticed Ibn get into a stance, 'What is he planning...! He's planning to attack him too. Alright, I'll just go for the next wounded one!'

Leon then lunges at Dallia, and striking twice with his right sword, and once with his left sword, causing 11 damage to Dallia.

Xavier's turn

OOC: I hope I'm doing this right.

Note: There's been a change to Backstab: You can no longer double with it. You can still dual-wield with it, though.

XAVIER

Xavier hacks at Dolph with both swords, laying the smackdown for 8 damage as the guard's armour weathers the damage.

ZACKE

Zacke prepares to Backstab Harris.

Izdihar, noticing Ibn's gesture, sees he's about to attack an already wounded bandit. However, she decides not to help him with her own blow as she's clearly the best at killing things on this battlefield, and that bandit will likely go down easily enough. So, she decides to Slam Talbot (auto hit, got the stun two and a half times). "HEY!" Izdihar yells as she swings her mighty axe at Talbot to get SOMEONE'S attention, once she brings the axe down she points towards Clarke and yells "SOMEONE HURRY AND GET AT THAT GUY!"

Bilbo takes a quick glance at his crossbow then decides that was the stupidest idea he has ever had. An arcing movement catches his eye, and he watches a bandit strike some guy with two swords. Bilbo's innards withered right there.

He remembers his pouch, and also remembers he can do things with it.

BILBO uses his POULTICE on DOLPH, healing him for 8 HIT POINTS.

KWYNN

The scout hacks at Harris, the axe ripping through armour and flesh for 7 damage.

Zacke blindsides Harris, shoving both swords into his back and through his chest for a fatal 13. The guard twitches, and when the bandit kicks him off his swords he collapses lifeless.

RHEA

Rhea, engaged in a fierce duel with the guard bowman, delivers a vicious back-handed blow to his chest for 7 damage.

DOLPH

"GIDDY UP, MOTHERFUCKER!" roars Dolph, tearing himself away from his herbal care and slashing at Xavier for 10 damage.

RADGAR

Radgar immediately follows Izdihar's command and lays into Clarke, slicing into him for 8 damage.

Ibn leaps from the shadows! He slices! He dices! Clarke takes 13 damage and falls like a chump.

DALLIA

Dallia has felt better in her life. She takes this out on the impudent rogue that just shanked her, Slamming Leon down for 12 damage. Leon resists the stun, however, and is free to move.

Delves snuck stealthily around behind Xavier. There wasn't really any need to pretend that he was on their side any more, this new group looked like it'd be far more... healthy to stay with.

With two swift moves, he drew his knives and stabbed the rogue, killing him instantly. Hopefully, none of the raiders would notice that one of their own had turned traitor...

5 atk - 1 armor = 4 damage

8 hit > 7 evade INSTA HIT

4 HP - 4 = 0 DEAD

((is this right?))
