After leaving the silent barbarian be, Eunh smiled at the results of the armored lady's searches.
"It seems luck hasn't abandoned us after all."

Check what are the "Supplies for Group" and if there is something valuable hidden amidst them. Keep following Talari.

Spoiler: Eunh (click to show/hide)

Inventory:
- Everything he had before he was captured :: clothes, gambling objects etc.
- Finely-crafted shortsword :: A good-quality shortsword, he carried it with him when he was captured.
- cards
- 3 silver
- a spear
- a bit of leather armor
- few crude metal tokens, probably used as currency.
Name: Eunh Destern
Gender: Male
Race: Kind-of-human - You see, Eunh is mostly human, but he has these white rabbit ears and tail and is seriously displeased when someone remembers him of that. (To anyone who didn't get why I did this: rabbit foot > luck > gambler )
Appearance: Eunh is a young man, looking fresh out of his teen years and into adulthood. His skin is white and his face is angular, his head sporting light-brown hair with two large white rabbit ears coming from the its top. His eyes are orange and he has a rabbit tail usually hidden under shirts or pants. His mannerisms are characteristic from gamblers and men of luck, always carrying himself with elegance and usually wearing fine clothing with light armor for protection.
Class: Royal Gambler:
A class of magic casters and skirmishers who are mainly proficient in the use of light weaponry and armor, their attacks are mostly based on agility and finesse, but they also have the benefit of luck alongside them. Their magic is centered mostly on fire, lightning and boosting their physical abilities, and the results of their magic attacks are obtained through rolling die, playing with cards or flipping coins - which they do with a fair amount of flair.
Backstory:
Eunh isn't very keen on remembering his childhood, but he remembers he was raised by a couple of poor merchants, helping them face strife and assisting them in their everyday struggle, being constantly picked on due to his animal traits. As he grew, the young boy discovered games and tricks and was entranced by their nature. His skills in the area grew, and it did not take long until he got the hang of it...And he did it perfectly.

In a few years, when Eunh reached early teens, he was already a professional gambler - tricking only the rich and the greedy, he had swore to himself - and had developed both a street savviness and combat ability based mostly on finesse, trickery and agility to counter what he saw as the lack of elegance of his pursuers.

It did not take long for him to get his hands on a tome of magic that caught his attention on a fair. Reading up on the spells, he decided they could help him, but only as long as they carried some of his personal touch. Noticing magic seemed to have some randomness built into it, the young man capitalized on that aspect and developed his skills as a magician based on gambling with magic, always trusting that bit of luck that seemed to have accompanied him since his birth.[/quote]

"Alright. Looks like everyone is here and ready. We're moving out now."

Head in the direction I saw earlier that resembles civilization.

Spoiler: Talari Kuneho (click to show/hide)

Gender:
>Female
Race:
>   Kitsune
Class:
>   Spellwarden

• An ancient order based on the laws of magic and its freeform usage - within the bounds of general human morality and the concept of balance. The Spellwarden uses magic to benefit the wielder as well as augment their personal skills and talents, with the only effect on others being healing, and to a lesser extend, warding from hostile spells.

Backstory: 'Tala' was born and raised in a monastery, having been adopted by the current monastic order due to a... caravan accident nearby caused by the local lawless factions. He was treated as one of their own, and his mindset is that of a human - minus the fact that he has fox-like ears instead of 'normal' ears and a long fluffy tail, these did not hinder his outlook on life. Aiming for the goodwill of others, while deeply cherishing the need in knowing what had happened in his past, Tala worked as a guardian and steward of his order until that fateful day.

Appearance: White fur and deep brown eyes, Talari stands at the height of five and a half feet tall. His body is lithe and lean in structure, and he sports a fluffy tail which spans up to his neckline. He is normally in a suit of armor - preferably plate mail, and his head is covered by a customary made mask designed to hide his features.

Head in the direction I saw earlier that resembles civilization.

You begin heading up the path, and eventually you are at the base of the mountain, at the start of a strange set of ruins. There is a long broken set of stone doors at the gates, cut impossibly neat in half.

Follow the group, keeping an eye out for whatever possible crafting materials as we go.

!6!: You find a few iron ingots, before you arrive at the ruins with Talari. You also find what appears to be a metal clad skeleton, wielding a long-rusted sword. +3 iron bars for crafting.

Try to make the goo into deadly flying needles,.

You make a small cloud of shrapnel from the goo, then follow the others to the ruins.

Check what are the "Supplies for Group" and if there is something valuable hidden amidst them. Keep following Talari.

The supplies are really just some food, as well as some meager bits of cloth, which could be used for bedding. You arrive at the ruins, and [1]: Hear some strange muttering from the undergrowth, and 3 Vaguely reptilian foes appear!

A goblin duelist and 2 kobolds appear! COMBAT START!

Spoiler: Foes (click to show/hide)

 
Goblin duelist:
10/10 HP
1d6 Damage.

Kobold hunters:
HP: 8/8 and 8/8
1d3 damage.

Spoiler: Players (click to show/hide)

Talari:
25/26 HP
1d6 damage

Eunh:
18/20 HP
1d4 Damage.

Urist:
20/21 HP
1d4 damage.

Mara:
15/16 HP
1d6 damage.

The goblin barks out a command to the Kobolds, [4]: they start flanking the group, and [5]: hits Talari for 3 damage.
The sun is lowering in the sky. It won't be long (2-3 turns) till nightfall.
The goblin is clad in a small leather armor suit, wielding 2 small bastard swords.
The kobolds are wielding little tiny daggers. They have small collars around their necks.
The ruins seem to date as far back as the 2nd era, ie 3500 years. The skeleton Urist found must've been a guard of some sort. The rusted!sword looks like a Khopesh.

[Caellath]

((@GM: How were HP amounts and damage ratings assigned? Eunh has weapons and Urist is unarmed, and Eunh also has the leather armor he found and the equipment he had before being captured (light armor) while Urist only has his body for protection.))

"...Trouble already? Well, just surrender, would you?" Eunh taunted one of the kobolds to prevent their flanking maneuver, taking out two dice and holding them between the fingers of his gloved right hand, his left hand firmly gripping the spear.

He smirks, steps forward and quickly swoops towards one of the enemies with a swoop and thrust.

Attack one of the kobolds using the spear.

(( I decided the health scores by the class's sort of role, I thought that say a fighter would have a fighter would have more health than a Mage or rogue, so for example Talari had the most health because s/he was more of a direct combat type. Also, the armor mostly lowers a amount of damage taken, so say a kobold hits Eunh, and rolls a 4 for damage, the armor would add a -1 to the damage roll, making it roll a 3 for dmg instead. Also, for a 1d3, I will roll a d6 and if 1 or 2, then 1 damage, 3 or 4 is 2 damage, and of course 5 and 6 are 3 damage.))

[Ultimuh]

Urist grabbed two of his trusty tools. A hammer in his right hand and a heavy wrench in his left.
"Come get some ye filthy greenskin!"
He taunted the Goblin, not really focusing on the bolds for some reason.

Urist prepares for battle, will attempt to fend off any attacks until the foe is close enough.

[Caellath]

((Oh, ok. I thought the HP was being given due to armor, hence Talari getting more HP (since they have heavy armor).

Your explanation made things clear, but the system now makes me imagine Talari with bulging muscles to soak damage. It is a bizarre mental image.

Also, wouldn't the current system favor warriors, since their damage would be higher, their hp is higher and they have armor to soak damage? Are there any mechanics for agility, to allow Rogue/Duelist-esque classes to dodge better?))

[TCM]

Equip axe and boots. Follow party.

[OREOSOME]

(( yes, rogues would have a bonus to agility involved rolls, and In combat would give the enemy a -1 to their rolls to hit.))

[Tiruin]

"Do not engage! Retreat to the ruins!" Talari shouted to her allies in the tongue they spoke. "They will chase us, then we'll have the initiative in our hands. Grab any weapons on the way but keep running!"

Imbue self with an agility bonus! If possible, keep defending my allies to prevent any tactical assault.

Rally by the ruins!

((What kind of colars are they wearing? Leather? Metal? SOmething else?))

Mara suddenly got a grin.

"Oh i've been longing for this. They'd wish they never have encountered me."

Turn all the metal (Goo+ Shrapnel) Into caltrops, scattering them all around me.

(( the kobolds are wearing studded leather collars, which have little spikes of bone sticking outwards.))

((Edited my action, just to point out. ))

[Caellath]

((Edited my action, just to point out. ))

((People do not want to expose themselves during a retreat, I guess. Especially because failed fallback rolls would end up splitting the group.))

"If we try a retreat, we may end up having some of us cornered during the fallback movement." Eunh said, adjusting his top hat. "Standing our ground and fighting is our best shot."

[Tiruin]

Curses.

"Most of us are unarmored, we need to pitch in better terrain! Unarmed versus these fighters, we're too open!"
