((Okay, he's playing possum and he's tougher than he looks. He's also got at least 3 buddies hiding somewhere under the sand nearby. This is going to be a bit tricky. ))

(So is Ulmwin aware of the attack on the caravan? If so, turn around and move back, prepping a crossbow bolt (let me know if I could fire). Otherwise, continue sprinting what I presume to be southish)

((I'd say not, since no one has attacked the caravan, and no one has raised the alarm.))

Ulmwin sprints to try to catch up to Randy and Galt.

Randy takes aim again at the individual, whispering words of power under his breath.

Long bow: 1d20+5 = [12] = 17
Long bow damage:1d8+3 = [8] = 11
Hail of thorns: 1d10 = [3] = 3

Total damage to target:14. Anything hiding within 5 feet takes 1-3 damage from the splinters, depending on if they dodge successfully or not.

The arrow strikes true, sprouting a burst of splinters mid flight as the fellow gives a startled yelp and throws up a robed arm to shield his face.

((What is the Save DC?))
DEX save: 1D20+2 = [11]+2 = 13

(( I copy and pasted it into Randy's profile that Badge put together. I'm not sure he gets a save being the target. Anyone in range around him that saves takes 1/2 damage.))

Zephyr says "I hope you're ready".
She draws her sword and as she starts moving to the other side of the well, uses her momentum as she jogs to hurl the sword as far to the NW toward the person she noticed as possible.
As she comes to a stop she opens up her arms in a beckoning manner and roars "WHEN YOU FINISH SUCKLING AT YOUR MOTHERS TEATS, COME AT ME YOU COWARDS!"

((Your WIS is 16, so 8 + Prof + WIS = 13. He saves.))

The figure lowers his arm, plucking a splinter from his cheek as he smiles at Randy, also plucking the three arrows from his robes and tossing them to the sand as well as he moves to stand. ((Just flavor, isn't up yet as his turn isn't coming for a bit.))

Image

Zephyr tosses her sword into the desert and shouts a challenge as she moves around the well. No one seems to be taking her up on it.

Tren pulls up her crossbow and fires towards the most revealed of the figures at the top of the dune, the bolt burying itself in sand.

Tren: Light Xbow: 1D20+4-5 = [8]+4-5 = 7

((Should be at DIS, but she's not hitting with a 7 anyway.))

Crossbow attack: 1D20+3 = [15]+3 = 18

Xbow damage: 1D8+1 = [2]+1 = 3


Coljin shoots his crossbow at the south most man on the dune.
Unsure if everyone at camp has seen them all he announces with a loud shout, "There are four of them hiding on the dunes, Stay in the camp and defend, they will have advantage if we fight them on their ground."
He will hop out of the cart and move west 15 feet.

Randy looks closely at the figure in front of him, trying to determine WHAT he is.

The bolt flies over the dune into the desert.

Szartha loads a crossbow, but holds it ready should they reveal themselves more.

He's a swarthy little man with a close cropped beard, his grin pulled a bit on the left side where a scar leaves a gap in the hair.

Not about to leave the caravan open, he'll follow Ulmwin by dashing back, readying his crossbow as he does so.

Randy warily watches the stranger, keeping his bow ready.

He yells to the stranger "Who are you and what do you want?"

Holger figures that surely Dornikal, Maji, Randy, Galt and Ulmwin should be able to settle anything they encounter down here, and heads back to the wagons to support the folks there... and possibly good that he is, as Zephyr, Coljin, Szartha and Tren seem to have their attention seems to be focused on the dunes to the north west... ... where did Tess get to?

Galt keeps running to catch up to Randy, greatsword in hand. He pulls up nearby, having seen Dornikal drop as well. "What's the play?"

Randy calls out, asking the intentions of the guy he's shot a few times so far...

He doesn't have long to wait, however, as the kneeling figure finishes standing and begins walking towards Randy, drawing a scimitar as he lets out a warbling call.

On cue, four others stand up from shallow trenches, arrayed around where Maji and Dornikal fell, shaking off sand as they likewise draw scimitars.

The two to the ranger's right focus on him.... ((and Randy gets to make 2 WIS save attempts!)).

Another is advancing on Galt. He shakes his head stubbornly as the robed figure growls in frustration, "Careful, they're trying something!"

Image


Back at the caravans, a cry rings out from the south, and the four figures on the ridge stand up, silhouetted against the pre-dawn sky. Each places a hand on the hilt of a scimitar at their side, but they stay in place on the ridge.

Their eyes seem to glow to Randy's vision, as the dunes seem to swirl around him, but he blinks and manages to shake the effect and stay on his feet.

Randy shakes his head clear, growls, drops the bow and equips shield and sword (the burning one). He glares at the leader and spits in the sand. "Come on then!"

((After moving 25 ft, the two nearest to Randy are within the 80 ft range of your crossbow. I don't recall if 120 ft is a range that matters for any of your spells, but all 5 are within that.))

Ulmwin hurries forward and gets ready to get involved...

Randy switches to shield and flaming sword, which the robed fellows regard a bit apprehensively.

Image

Back up at the wagons, Zephyr considers her next action since none have them have done more than stand up in response to her challenge.

(( :chuckle: Randy may be bluffing a bit with the flaming sword, but it's a bluff with teeth behind it since he can still use PW with it. It may be a bit surprising if they're expecting fire damage and instead get blasted across the dune. ))

Zephyr draws upon the magical energies within herself (flamboyantly) and casts Fire bolt at one of the standing men (the one straight NW of her).
Fire Bolt: 1D20+4 = [20]+4 = 24
Fire Bolt Damage (Crit): 1D10 = [3] = 3
1D10 = [10] = 10
= 13
