Thorgrim readies his crossbow and then grabs a handful of pebbles and tosses them outside the mouth of the cave, trying to draw the orcs out.

Throm waits for an orc to poke its head out so he can chop it off with his axe.

(Sorry for delay. Family stuff...)
All falls silent in the cave again, then some rustling. Some hushed orders are barked. More rustling...
An arrow flies from the large tree above the caves mouth burying itself into Craxzus shoulder!
The orc ducks behind the trunk. The orc in the tree seems to yell into the tree trunk. All is quiet in the cave again.

Eirenaios' sling bullet bounces off the tree trunk and Thorgrims green bolt trails off into the sky.
Throm throws his magic ax through the tree branches and strikes the orc.
(You also add 1/2 your damage bonus to throwing axe)
Throm Damage Bonus [1d4] = 2 for a total of 7 damage.
The orc grunts in pain and you can seem to hear it falling down INSIDE the tree trunk!
Some grumbling can be heard within the cave.

Eirenaios hides behind the tree hoping the orcs inside didn't hear the commotion

Throm summons his ax back to his hand and stands to the side of the entrance waiting for an orc to show it's ugly face.

It remains quiet inside the cave. You can feel tension rising.

Thorgrim attempts to find a vantage point that will allow him to see into the cave while still offering some protection, possibly a rock or tree in front of the cave. If he can get a peek into the cave he will loose another bolt at the orcs.

Crossbow Attack (34%): [1d100] = 59
Dodge (73%): [1d100] = 44

The orcs did a good job covering the front of the cave with bushes and branches. There is no good peek hole. You may have walked right by the camo if not for the smoke from inside.

Craxzus moves around the back of the tree that orc is in. If he is not not spotted he will climb the tree.




OCC- The toxic powder of Paralysis that Craxzus is carrying. How is it contained? Glass, ceramic. leather pouch.

No signs of activity from within the cave.

Craxzus move quietly (34%) [1d100] = 3

Craxzus Climb EASY CHECK (50 becomes 75%) [1d100] = 56
Craxzus manages to stealthily climb the tree. A hole can be seen in the large trunk, big enough to accommodate a person. A ladder descends into darkness below. The smell of campfire and orc is strong here.

Craxzus will look for something plug up the hole. So that the cave will fill with smoke.
