Butternut

Butternut:

"DRAGON?!" Ren squeaks. "I do believe the carnage I viewed earlier suggested caution but what is this about a bloody dragon? I certainly don't wish to be here by myself if there really is one around." All the while Ren is surveying the skies intently as if the dragon is just around ...

Butternut

Butternut of the Foxburr Clan:

“ Have you struck your head? You really do not recall what happened? How far back can you recall?” she asks the thief curiously.
"Perhaps it was the dragon terror we all experienced last night that ruined his memories," Butternut says, her gaze shifting from the ...

Butternut

Butternut of the Foxburr Clan:

Disarmed slightly by Butternut's energetic answer "Hmmm well at least you know me, though sadly its not mutual. I seem to be a bit addled and unaware of much else. We have at least fought together of that I am sure and assume there was no betrayal here but as to ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Try as she might, Butternut cannot find a better way up. Though disliking being so exposed, Butternut leads the way up the steep mountain path. The only consolation is -- if there are enemy up by the entrance -- they would have to be right near the edge of the flat area to have any ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The sound of fighting fades away behind them as the scouts make their way uphill through the woods. They move roughly parallel to the road; occasionally, they get a glimpse through the woods and note that there don't appear to be any foes moving about this far up. Leaving the known ...

Butternut

Butternut:

With Ren off who-knows-where, they have to choose a next move. Butternut suggests returning to the Eagle's Nest to set up as a staging point for further searching. Vernar agrees, so they have a place to start.

"I did not see much in the way o' enemies up this way," Vernar says softly ...

Butternut

Butternut:

"Headed off that way," Vernar responds, again pointing in the direction he last saw the gnome. "Acted like he not be knowin' it was me or somethin'..."
Butternut looks off in the direction Vernar points, but doesn't see any sign of the missing gnome.

"Maybe he still be sufferin ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Approaching the dwarf, Vernar's reaction seems confused initially, but then takes stock of the situation.

"Um, yeah. I have been alone. Until now." Vernar still looks a bit confused. "Unless I be losin' my blessed mind, I swear that was Ren," he indicates by pointing where he ran off ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Checking both ways, Butternut scampers across the road and into the bushes beyond. She can make out Vernar moving through the woods a little way off and flashes a hand-sign of recognition to him. It is good to see him; she was worried that others of their group might not have survived ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The memory of the battle with the hobgoblins a couple days ago is vivid in Butternut's memory. That black leather armor is unmistakable. She watches as the meeting between the hobgoblins and the orcs and goblins turns to bloodshed.

As the fighting draws closer, Butternut pulls back ...

Butternut

Butternut:

After finding the caravan destroyed by Zammie, Janice, and their friends, the halfling and elfin women start to work their way quietly uphill through the woods. Due to the vast number of goblinoids on the road, they have to stay well off the road, which slows travel. Fortunately, there ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Hiding in the woods just off the road between Crossroads and Gateway, it soon becomes apparent that the passing greenskins are no scouting party. The sheer volume of enemy troops forces Butternut and Kaylessa to pull further back into the woods. They are clearly retreating back toward ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Zammie dashes off and -- in disgust -- Butternut lets her go. As she turns, something catches her eye. She reaches for her crossbow, but realizes that the faint shadow against the tree is Kaylessa. "Ah, you made it. Good."

The halfling woodsman shows her elven companion back to the ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The halfling woodswoman merely raises an eyebrow at the goblin's threat. Butternut's killed enough goblins herself that she doesn't find them very threatening except in large groups.

After letting that point hang, Zammie takes a deep breath and adds, “You're kind is always killing my ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The goblin female slows, but still continues to move away. “How do you know my name? What did you do with Janice?”
Butternut is getting tired from running again so soon after fleeing from the dragon, but fortunately the goblin slows down a bit. "I was watching the fight from the ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Having heard a female voice call out, Butternut had beckoned them nearer. She can hear the woman coming closer, who calls out again in a questioning tone.

Another tense moment passes, then a female goblin parts the underbrush and steps into view. Butternut recognizes her from the ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Minutes tick by as Butternut waits. No response. She hadn't really expected to find one of her companions nearby, but it had seemed like the best first option. Time to figure out her next step.

Extracting herself from the burnt-out stump, Butternut takes a good look around. She can ...

Butternut

Butternut:

As they back away, the smoke continues to thicken until she can barely make out Vernar, no more than a dozen paces away. Breathing is becoming a challenge too, and she holds a fold of her cloak over her nose and mouth in an attempt to filter out the worst of it. Hearing Vernar call for ...

Butternut

Butternut:

With the smoke and flapping wings, Butternut accepts Vernar's recommendation and waits on trying to contact the female warriors. Instead, she back away from the sound of the wings, hoping to find a spot where the smoke is less dense. She keeps her crossbow at the ready, in case she ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The drow mage and her goblin friend Zam move out of sight as the fighting continues. As the fire reaches the barrels of that horrid goblin beverage, the smoke and stench get worse, causing Butternut to hold her nose.

The wind suddenly shifts to coming from above and the flapping of ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Spotting a male hobgoblin standing over a female goblin with sword raised, Butternut mutters, "Not in this lifetime..." and fires. Her bolt plows into the back of his head, causing it to practically explode like an overripe melon.

She turns to Vernar with a huge grin on her face ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Fire is spotted down near the main road, so the scouts set off to investigate. They glide through the underbrush, keeping their senses peeled for any sign of ambush or foes. As they draw closer to the source of the firelight, the unmistakable sounds of combat are heard.

Moving more ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Climbing down off the wagon, Butternut returns toward the other. As she goes, she checks each wagon she passes to confirm that they are empty. She spots Ren rifling through the various hobgoblins' pockets when she passes a gap between two wagons.

"I do not want t' be sayin' that was ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Seeing that Vernar is confident about finishing the wounded ogre alone, Butternut clambers up onto the last wagon. Moving from one sleeping hobgoblin to the next, she efficiently slits their throats while whistling a jaunty tune. Once done with those on this wagon, she makes her way up ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The wounded ogre seems to have difficulty tracking the small assailant as she circles and comes in on his left flank. The severed hamstring makes it impossible for the ogre to stand up fully and so it has adopted a crouched position. Determination etched on her features, Butternut ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The ogre never sees her coming. Slipping in behind the beast, Butternut's dagger slices through its left hamstring just behind the knee. Pain causes it to roar and thrash in its harness, resulting in her short sword missing the other hamstring. A rough backhand serves as a painful ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Advancing through the woods with Vernar watching her back, Butternut is puzzled by the lack of reinforcements with this wagon train. 'Perhaps Flare misunderstood his friend,' she muses.

Finding a good spot, the halfling elementalist pulls a pinch of dust from one of the pockets sown ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Peeking around the large maple's trunk, Butternut observes the caravan rolling by. Now that she's close, she can see that this wagon train is about the same size as the other and they have arrived just as the middle wagons are passing.

Glancing over at Vernar, she jerks her head to ...

Butternut

Butternut:

While not a skilled cook, Butternut's training in hunting and survival included some basic food preparation so she gives Sorvani a hand as best she can. She mostly focuses on the meat, since that's what she has the most experience with. Once a fire is built, the halfling ranger applies ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Laurel will sidle over to the small group and pipe up, "I'd like to listen in if a lesson is being given... I'm pretty good with picking up languages."
Butternut looks up and gives the quiet priestess a ragged smile. "Sure, join us. If you're good with languages, perhaps soon you'll ...

Butternut

Butternut:

“Here you go,” Sorvani says as he produces the spell book from his pack. “I was able to learn new spells from it last night. Hopefully you'll find something useful in there.”
"Me too," Butternut grumbles as she accepts the heavy tome. Returning a couple hours later, she hands it back ...

Butternut

Butternut:

1st Level (3+1): Magic Missile, Metamorphose Liquids (bonus), Shocking Grasp, Sleep

2nd Level (1+1): Mist Magic (bonus), Strength

Note: Bonus spells must come from Elem Water school.

Butternut

Butternut:

"That be my choice," Vernar replies. "Finish 'em an' be done with this mess."
Butternut replies with a nod and a smile. It pleases her that she and the dwarf are often on the same page regarding what needs to be done and how.

After a moment, Vernar asks Butternut a question, "I ...

Butternut

Butternut:

From her hidden spot watching the road, Butternut can just hear the murmur of the group endlessly debating this and that. Why can't they be quieter?! Yeesh. At least the smoke rising from the burning wagon and all that noise don't draw any curiosity from the goblins in Bollo's Shield ...

Butternut

Butternut:

As the distribution of goods among the wagons is debated and tested, Butternut works with Ren and Flare to set up some fun surprises for any goblins who come for a visit. Several of the barrels of goblin spirits are used as tempting lures to encourage investigation.

Once that work is ...

Butternut

Butternut:

“Good shootin' there, Squash!” Kendell will tells the Squash Halfling.
After the battle, Butternut grins up at the big warrior. "Thank you, Kendell. You did some fine work yourself."

'Toss them down,” Sorvani will suggest. “We can use all the arrows we can carry.”
Soon, Butternut ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Casting her spell in amongst the hobgobs, Butternut is disappointed that it only puts three of the five into la-la land. She grumbles angrily for a moment, but the battle is not yet over and there is more yet to do. Lucyus and Kendell slay the remaining two ogres, while Flare and ...

Butternut

Butternut:

As she advances through the woods, an ogre gets close enough to Flare to swing at him! The archer ducks, managing to evade the brute, but his aim is off and he misses his return shots - which he blames on his sobriety! Butternut just shakes her head, glad that the ogre missed, then ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The halfling tunnelrat glides into the woods near her gnome friend. She can hear his arcane chanting and smiles to herself. Moments later, Ren releases the spell and all six hobgobs fall insensate! "Good job, Ren!" she whispers loudly enough for him to hear.

Raising her crossbow ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Ren has continued on ahead and veered into the woods, so Butternut advances as well. She spots an ogre just coming into view down the wagon line. To her right, several of the squad are finishing off the ogre and hobgoblins driving the fourth wagon.

Kneeling down once again, the ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Vernar returns her gesture, confirming their next move. She waves for Ren to come with her and starts to move up past the next wagon. As she runs forward, she sees Lucyus and Kendall fighting an ogre and two wagon drivers. She screeches to a stop, takes aim, and puts a quarrel into the ...

Butternut

Butternut:

“More than enough for what we need!” Ren answers with a wicked grin.
Shaking her head, Butternut emits an amused snort. "Good."

Vernar shares his plan for the trap, and Butternut sets to working on her part. It only takes a few moments to dig a small, shallow hole with one of her ...

Butternut

Butternut:

“Some,” the gnome reports. “We should have plenty of fuse cord to use and at least a dozen pots of Alchemist's Fire. Should be fun!”
"Seems we have a bit of a pyromaniac in the group," Butternut says, raising one eyebrow at the gnome.

Laurel's cat reappears after M'Lady returns ...

Butternut

Butternut:

There is a good bit of discussion about plans which Vernar listens intently to, but also notices Butternut's disdain for it.
Butternut notes Vernar looking in her direction and makes a gesture with one hand like a bird squawking, then rolls her eyes.

With all the talking finally ...

Butternut

Butternut:

The thrill of the hunt has Butternut's blood up as she stalks silently through the woods. Looping around to get behind him, she employs every trick she has learned over the years to catch the hobgoblin flat-footed and unsuspecting. Stepping close, she drives her shortsword in just ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Gliding wraith-like through the woods, Butternut follows the fuse line. At a sound from Kaylessa, she pause and looks at the elf, who points at an exposed bit of similar fuse disappearing behind a tree on the other side of the road. "Good eyes, elf," Butternut whispers in reply ...

Butternut

Butternut:

"I feel like a drunkard's mug today," Gerett smirked. "As soon as I get filled up, I get emptied out again."
Butternut chuckles at the dwarf's description. "At least you haven't lost your sense of humor, Gerett. Always a good sign." Not long after, the improvised shield wall begins ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Butternut does her best to stay behind the lurching wall of shields. Seeing how much the bigger folk are struggling with the ungainly shields, she's glad she didn't get stuck carrying one. With no good targets, she doesn't fire very often, choosing instead to conserve her quarrels ...

Butternut

Butternut:

Squeezing off a shot at a hint of movement among the trees at the bottom of the hill, Butternut hears Vernar sigh. Glancing at him, she snorts mirthlessly before returning her gaze to the woods below. She loads another bolt, then looks over her other shoulder to see how this shield ...
