Rova 17th 17 - Smarter than the average Kitty Cat

The group head south east

Whilst travelling Natalia senses a large natural creature a number of miles away from them, as they head towards the creature’s position the group discover an overgrown and disused camp.

Just as they’re about to walk across the parameter Miro notices a number of bear traps amongst the long grass some had been triggered whilst the majority were still primed.

Once Miro had disabled the traps the group walk into camp where they find various signs of a massacre around them, at one edge of the camp laid an large fallen tree with claw marks etched into the bark, Natalia believed that the creature that was clever and had purposely pushed the tree over into the camp to bypass the bear traps.

After some time of exploring what’s left of the camp the group continued on their way and soon discover a valley of thorn covered plants between two sloped hills. Amongst the bramble a natural archway of the brambles forming a path through the plants was soon discovered allowing passage through.

As they’re walking through the tunnel Natalia senses again that the large creature was a little ways ahead of them even though the half eaten corpse of a horse they had just passed kinda gave them the same idea.

Soon afterwards the tunnel begins to widen up with more corpses littered around the floor followed by a loud deep roar as a large dire tiger starts charging towards the group.

Vaneer casts Flamestrike and burns the tiger,

Otto casts hold monster which takes effect,

Boss shoots at the tiger twice, his animal bane arrow missing but hits with a normal arrow,

Hugo charges at the tiger and lands a blow,

Miro flanks the tiger and hits it,

Tiger manages to break the magical hold,

Natalia casts Ice storm getting both the tiger and Miro,

Vaneer takes a hit at the tiger but gets hit in return,

Otto casts hold monster again which again holds the tiger,

Boss shoots two arrows and again the animal bane missed whilst the normal hit,

Hugo swings at the tiger (Spear Tooth) and kills it on the spot,

Speartooth had be rumoured to cause havoc around the lands and so the group take the tiger’s corpse back to fort Drelev.

The group rest over night
