CF - Jerian

"Very well, the group should be ready to go within an hour or so. It will be led by Dusan Chase, and you'll work with Alwin Thall." He pauses for a short time before continuing. "I know its a small group, but I need to keep a few men around here for defense, and besides, I trust that you are all strong enough. However, if you feel you need a bit more help, I'll allow you to take some equipment from out of the armory here."

Blake · #22

I'll go check the armory.

KirbyBoy2000 · #23

You head over to the armory, the entrance is guarded by a large guy in armor. After telling him of your mission he stands aside and you enter.

I'll put my shortsword and leather armor in the armory and pick up a hand axe and the cuirass.

KirbyBoy2000 · #25

You leave your equipment in the armory, place the hand axe as your side weapon, and put on the Cuirass before leaving.

Want to do anything else for now? If not then the mission will start.

Blake · #26

Nope, I'm ready to start the mission.

KirbyBoy2000 · #27

You head outside and wait for the group to arrive. Alwin appears first, carrying some new equipment.

"Hey Jerian. So you're on this too? Now we just need to wait for Dusan. Oh, wait, here he comes."

The archer you saw before on the training grounds walks towards you, He's wearing leather armor and has a large quiver on his back.

"So, you're the guys coming with me on the mission? Fine. Just don't get in the way too much. Come, lets go."

He starts walking away from you.

"Nice to meet you too..." Alwin mutters under his breath before following.

On the way over bandits attack you.
Dusan fires 2 arrows at the bandit. Deals 180 damage.
Alwin attacks bandit for 95 damage.
Bandit attacks Alwin for 70 damage.
Bandit attacks you for 30 damage.
Your turn.

Jerian - HP: 330 MP: 0
Alwin - HP: 190 MP: 0
Dusan - HP: 400 MP:0 (A:49/50)

Bandit - HP: 280 MP:0
Bandit - HP: 100 MP:0

(If you're wondering about why you're slower now... weight hurts your speed... even more so when it gets higher than your power stat.)

Blake · #28

Dang, I meant to get those leather boots earlier too :o

I'll attack the bandit that's attacking me with my iron axe.

KirbyBoy2000 · #29

You attack the bandit for 70 damage.
Dusan fires two arrows, one at the first bandit, one at the other. Bandit 1 takes 90 damage, Bandit 2 falls.
Alwin attacks the bandit for 95 damage. Bandit falls. (Man, I can't believe I forgot to put in Alwin's damage...)

Oh well, you win. +45Exp, +2 training. You now have an extra point for training in your skills, such as axe-weilding.

After the battle you check the bandits and find 50gp, Dusan takes it. Your group then keeps moving on, stopping once just a little away from the village. Dusan looks closely at it for a short time before speaking.

"I see two bandits keeping watch at the entrance to the village with bows, but I can't see much more from here. I'm sure if we approach more will come. Either of you two have any ideas?"

"Well my only ideas are if one of us were able to enter the village unarmed to scout the village from the inside and then exploit the least secure entrance to the village, but it may arouse too much suspicion. Otherwise, we can perhaps sneak up and take bandits out one-by-one to avoid alerting others, but of course getting to the village undetected is half the challenge."

KirbyBoy2000 · #31

"Hmm... yeah, we should try to get in without them noticing too much." Dusan answers.
"Or we could do the opposite." replies Alwin
"Huh?"
"Oh, I was thinking something like a distraction. Have one of us attack on one side, then while they're focusing on it rush in."
"Hmm... I don't know. What do you think Jerian?"

Blake · #32

"I like the idea. You're the strongest of us Dusan, so if you distracted the bandits while me and Alwin rushed in from behind, I believe we would eradicate the bandits as painless as possible."

KirbyBoy2000 · #33

"Alright, I'll go around to another part of the village and get their attention. Wait here for a bit, I'll send a signal once I think I got their guard weak enough."

He runs off around the village. A short while later you see a glowing arrow fly off into the sky.

"I'm guessing thats what he was talking about. Lets go."

You and Alwin start running toward the village. The bandits at the entrance notice you approaching.

You can either run forward or throw your hand axe at them to start the battle.

Blake · #34

I'll throw my hand axe at one of the bandits and then rush in with my iron axe asap.

Edit: Oh yeah, I'll put my extra training point in axe-weilding

You and Alwin take out the Bandit. You get back your Hand Axe. Alwin takes a Short Sword and 20gp. You both gain 10exp and 1 extra point for training.

You both rush into the village, at the other gate you see several bandits guarding the base.

"Wow... there looks like there are atleast 8 of them over there. Dusan sure has his work cut out for him... think we should help him out, or is there something else you think we should do first?"

Blake · #38

"I doubt he can take them all alone, so I think we'd better give him a hand before checking anything else out."

KirbyBoy2000 · #39
