The group sneaks down the road unseen and unheard.

As they reach the bend, peeking around it, they see the guard seems to have fallen asleep and is snoring softly.

What do you do now?

Linder will advance carefully and be ready to fire his bow at the guard if he wakes and sounds the alarm.

Does he see a horn? If he does, that might tempt him to sneak in and steal it. ;)

OOC: Actually, now that he looks closely, yes! Yes, there is a horn lying right next to the snoring guard's left hand. ;)

The thief grins to himself and slips ahead, putting his weapon away and focusing on stealth. He intends to get in close, snag the horn, and withdraw without waking them. If he fails, he'll snatch the horn and run!

As the line of heroes creep forward Linder, off in the verge of the forest, suddenly steps lively across the dirt road and into the Orc camp.

Silently he sneaks in, carefully grabs the horn, lying next to the sleeping Orc guard and starts to back away. The Orc snores, startling Linder, and he scampers back making more noise than he likes.

Behind him he hears the sounds of movement, but no shouts, or worse yet, arrows come after him as he disappears back into the underbrush beside the dirt trail.

Those on the road see all this and also see the Orc guard and one of the others move restlessly as Linder starts to move away. Neither wakes as one turns to the other side and the other scratches their ear and seems to slump even deeper into slumber.

Salma makes a very quiet "woof" at this as a grin spreads across his face.

The Kobold in your company whispers under his breath so only those near him can hear, "Crazy! Foolish! Could'a slit throats, while he were there."

Linder waved the horn at them with a grin, tucked it away, readied his bow, and waited for the others to act.

de Francisco smiles at the returning Linder, feeling a bit more confident with their approach.

He waves back and waves people to keep advancing, at 10 feet away he signals the general charge.

Is the plan to rush in and kill the Orcs, or try to capture them?

Also, I'm going to give everyone another day to post something. I'd really like some of the other players to post...<sigh...is it JR, Terry, ateno (Eric) and Dartihe here?
