I ... hope I have a few modifiers to that...

Strider, Insight and Uncanny Agility all apply here so you make it safely across but not without consequence.

Im heading home late tonight and will be home in the wee hours of Friday morning.

I will require a decision soon. One thing to keep in mind is that daylight is almost as disadvantageous to Orcs as darkness is to humans. They get -1 to most rolls while the sun is up and -2 when it is particularly bright (such as noon on a sunny day). The weather here is also still much like the b...

Can Morwen cast a 30' cube illusion of just a tumbleweed, anchored on a small rock that one of us can carry (or kick along) as we walk across in a tight group? Illusion Magic like Chimerical Force can’t make you invisible. It can make things you can hide in but it has to make more things to perceiv...

The two Elves can basically walk across the area using their Elven Cloaks with little fear of detection and both can cast Invisibility as well. Morwen has a lot of spells she can use as rituals in this instance. She can make very convincing illusions in a 30' cube, throw her voice with Ventriloquis...

That's a majority of the PCs. The group holds and allows the Orcs and their Wargs to pass. Just before dawn Earnan has the watch and detects the troupe on its return trip. They are moving quickly in an effort to be back in their dens before sunrise. Soon thereafter the band is roused and ready to m...

The band travels in a winding fashion so as to stay below the hilltops until they find a campsite by a cleft in a hillside where they can prepare a fire and bank it where an enemy would need to be on top of them already to notice. They are just at the edge of badlands with their spires and mounds of...

The blue line is your basic route. You are being sneaky so while it is only 4 hexes it will still take two days as you don't want to have to deal with Orcs after a march at night when your forces are better by day than the enemy. Travelling light your party has a movement rate of 5 hexes. Badlands ...

It is settled. Dramm & Barnaby , Morwen & Macnav and Earnan & Eithlin gether their gear and ready to set out. Dramm is the slowest of the band afoot, but he has strong mounts. He stows his own dragonhide armor and that of his destrier on his sumpter and rides his courser to keep pace wit...

The final reports return and it is decided that a small band of heroes will travel light in order to launch an attack against he western Orcs while a more potent armed force led by Sir Ji-ho will ride to meet up with the Dawi Slayers who went that way and destroy the eastern threats. Macnav bobs his...

Its nearly two weeks before anything begins to change. The scouts go out each day and learn what they can while skirmishing with enemy outriders. But soon they get a chance to ride deeper into enemy terrain and when the reports are collated they find gaps in the way the enemy is encamped. Two such o...

Springvale is a fertile and pleasant domain with hamlets and villages extending for a dozen miles along the High Road toward Ravenswell . While the entire area experience easy growth due to the sacred waters it is commerce that determines which way the settlement has grown. Some folks take advantag...

I have returned. Leitza and I will do some rolls for the logistics and massed army stuff by PM. This will set the backdrop for the next stage. It will take several weeks most likely which is why Morwen is staying in her lab for now so she can keep working on her latest project and hope to have it f...

I am away again until Sunday.

Let us skip ahead from here. The messengers are dispatched and you are moving in force through friendly, well patrolled areas until you leave Ravenswell so we will pick up in the shadow of Morwen's tower. The seventh day arrives and the strongest force seen in the Borderlands in many years sprawls ...

It is Easter weekend and I am traveling so I do not expect to get an update done.

Happy Easter to you all.

The Margrave will muster his forces and march when ready. The Abbot will wait with him. Jiho needs to get word to Eastfort to muster. He can send someone or do it himself. The Dawi have to go to Eastfort and rally their people. Mag and Gurav have to go in person. Morwen will return to Ravenswell. D...

The consensus is to go to Springkeep. The Council goes on long into the night until finally a consensus is reached and the details of the undertaking are settled. In the morning they will muster their forces and then head north along the High Road to Springvale. It will take a few days to make the ...
