Now to go to the raiding mission.

[ May 15, 2005, 06:31 PM: Message edited by: KirbyBoy2000 ]

[[sage]]

You report to the meeting place for the raid. There are 5 seats behind a desk, facing a large amount of seats. Three woman and one man are sitting on the four outer seats. A minute later, Terra walks by you, over to the middle seat and sits down. She motions for you to take a seat near the front, since few others have arrived yet. You obey, as people start filing into the room, into the rows, front to back, filling in all seats. A little more than a 10th are filled.

Terra confers with the people on both sides of her before speaking. You can't understand what they whisper about, and then she begins to speak.

"As all of you know, with the exception of a couple of new recruits to the base who are here, the Velazian Camp Dracospire has been one of our primary targets in the past month, due to their size and relatively close location. Our last raid has left them hurting for supplies. Our scouts and spies have discovered that they have a new wagon train of supplies being driven in. If we are to drive Velazians away from our lands, or destroy them all together, we must get rid of Dracospire. Three parties will be sent. One, to ambush the wagon supply train. There are about 120 of you in here, and about a third or fourth of that number is needed for that task.

More importantly, one of our spies within their ranks is on duty tonight at their gate. He will let us in at the designated time, and a majority of you will sneak in, under the cover of darkness. Being as stealthily as possible, kill any Velazians you come across. Feel free to loot, but be prepared to flee at any moment, for you will be vastly outnumbered within their ranks. Stealth is the only weapon you have that is capable of competing with their entire force.

The third party, needing to be the smallest of you will held in reserves, waiting nearby for any signals sent from within the camp or from the ambushers. A runner will be sent back to tell of the news, while the rest will be sent to assist.

Now, when I call for a task, stand up if you wish to join that force."

Just tell me when one you stand up for, Wagon, Camp or Reserves.

[KirbyBoy2000]

Wagon.

[[sage]]

After the groups are split up, she adresses each group, your group first, which consists of 33 women.

"You will all make your way around Camp Dracospire, which lies to the north of this camp. You'll have to go around the west side of the camp, skirting any guards posted, and meet the wagon caravan which comes from the North West."

She looks at the group, and focuses her gaze on a tall woman with red hair.

"Sara, you'll be in charge of the ambush. I know you well, you are an experienced commander, and the highest rank of the group. Pick two field commanders. Since your group needs to travel the farthest, you will leave as soon as possible."

She looks back and forth across the ambush team.

"Do any of you have any questions or wish to switch teams. If you do, speak now."

[KirbyBoy2000]

None here.

[[sage]]

No one else has any. The group leaves the camp and begins the trek over to the ambush spot. Nothing goes wrong on the way.

Sara "Alright, they should be arriving any minute. When they come into view, hit them with any magic you have to keep them blind or deaf, but preferably not damaging, we'll get in close, and slaughter them. If you have nothing along those spell lines, don't bother with the light spell on your wands, or deafening with the whistles, those will only make those in the fort aware of us at this distance."

The first wagon comes into view.

"Not yet, not yet..." she says.

The rest of the wagons trail in.

"Now!"

What do you do?

[KirbyBoy2000]

Sandstorm on the wagon.

[[sage]]

You cast sandstorm over the wagon. Various other spells are cast which you can't really tell their effect right away.

Sara calls for the group to advance.

Want to cast Dancing flames before you get there?

[KirbyBoy2000]

Yep. I'll use my wand to reduce it's cost too so I can use more spells later.

[[sage]]

HP: 40/40
FP: 15/15
WP: 30/45
Wand: 19hp

The group advances, as half a dozen guards rush out of the storm, carrying greatswords. Two more, a larger man, in platemail with a battleaxe walk out. The second is an average sized man, in chainmail and a black cape, in his hand is a rapier.

Sara calls out "Ready Attack spells!"

Six more swordsman, and six bowmen walk out, followed by a young woman in a red dress, her hair pulled back in a ponytail.

Sara "Attack now!"

What do you cast?

[KirbyBoy2000]

Overheat, Wand(1/2MP) and Explosion on the guards

[[sage]]

You aim explosion at the middle swordsmen, hitting basically everybody.

When the explosion clears, only the man in the black cape, the women in red and the large man in platemail are left, looking quite surprised.

The woman calls "Well damn. Now we have nothing to bring them. Let's get rid of these pests." She chants a spell, and a large globe appears around the three of them as various other attack spells would hit them.

The man in black says. "Damnit Avonese, couldn't you have saved the guards? Now it's three on thirty."

She shakes her head. "Two on thirty actually. I expended too a lot of energy just blocking those attacks. Have fun." She grins, and reaches to her necklace, whispers something and vanishes.

The man in the black cape looks at his partner. "Well Garth, we've faced worse odds. Let's fight!"

Garth looks at him "Agreed Zen."

The two of them charge at the ambush party.

Sara calls out "Idiots, we have you outnumbered over 15 to 1, Surrender!"

Garth "No way, you're going down!"

Sara shakes her head "Attack!"

[KirbyBoy2000]

Attack Zen(The one in the cape and less armor) with 2 blunt arrows.
