Log
Exploration
- The party finds wolf tracks and follows them to a trail of blood
- Boddruk has an identity crisis as Fen questions his title "The Undwarf"
- Fen determines that the blood is not from a humanoid.
- The trail of blood leads us to a small cave. Whatever was bleeding must have been dragged in.
- The wolves dragged a large moose in and they're eating it ravenously, as if they haven't eaten in a week.
- Elasha sneaks up on the wolves to begin combat.
Combat: Party vs 6 wolves
- Elasha is at Dying 3 within the first round.
- Grist valiantly rushes forward to stabilize Elasha.
- Bodrukk takes out the first of the wolves
- Elasha is back to Dying 3 in the second round
- Elasha passes away as she is torn asunder by wolves.
- The party dispatches the wolves without too much further difficulty.
- We pay our respects to Elasha and collect her items to pass forward
- As we take our leave, we hear weird wet snarling from creatures closer to the start of the cave!
- Evergreen takes up a bow since she had no chance to refocus
Combat: Party vs 3 Mutated Wolves
- Mutated Wolves look like half bullfrog half wolf - very chonky with these gross open pustles on their body.
- Infection with Bloodfire Fever upon being bit
- Bodrukk goes down after taking a surprising number of crits
- Lots of healing resources put towards Bodrukk to get him back up
- Bodrukk goes back down to Dying 3
- Evergreen goes immediately to Dying 3
- Fen brings Bodrukk and Evergreen back up to 7 HP with Heal
- The party begins to run from the wolves, given the high likelihood of failure
- Bodrukk hands his clan dagger to Bright Eyes and bravely runs back into the fight! He is rewarded a hero point for this.
- As Bodrukk is near death in front of Mutated Wolf, Bright Eyes dives on top of him and raises his shield.
- Fen uses a deus ex machina Heal scroll to save Bodrukk's life!
- Bodrukk continues fighting in the frontlines, angrier than ever.
- "If Bodrukk doesn't kill this on his turn, it will attack him" (thereby killing him) * Dag
- Bodrukk slams the last Mutated Wolf with a **52 damage critical hit**, ending the encounter at Wounded 4 and very little HP.
End
- Everyone earns 20 GP and 360 XP.
- Bodrukk and Bright Eyes overcome the disease from the Mutated Wolves
