Mission 1: The Bear in Winter

[Rakle]

 

Vega's eyes widen at the mention of the cubs. She was surprised that no one had been mauled by the she-bear.

"Ghosts?! Did someone kill the cubs and take the pelts? Is she just following the scent of the pelts?" Vega asks. Numerous questions were running through her mind, but she needed to learn more before asking.

Notable Effects

Flurry of blows: Make two unarmed Strikes. If both hit the same creature, combine their damage for the purpose of resistances and weaknesses. Apply your multiple attack penalty to the Strikes normally. As it has the flourish trait, you can use Flurry of Blows only once per turn

Stunning Fist DC(18): The focused power of your flurry threatens to overwhelm your opponent. When you target the same creature with two Strikes from your Flurry of Blows, you can try to stun the creature. If either Strike hits and deals damage, the target must succeed at a Fortitude save against your class DC or be stunned 1 (or stunned 3 on a critical failure). This is an incapacitation effect

Tethyr, Half-Elf Magus

"Ghosts imply someone did kill cubs. Has this ever happened before?" he asks the tracker.

He pauses to consider what he knows of larger bear species in this country, how old would cubs be this time of year? Was there anything unique about them would have inspired hunters or poachers to go after them?

Nature

[foltor]

"Nah. Cubs is alive. Seen the tracks. Ghosts don't leave tracks. Ain't seen travelers. 'Cept those two a couple weeks back. But not with the bears."

"There's a bear sniffing around a barn a couple miles west of here. That's what you're looking for, isn't it?"

The mention and discussion of cubs seems to confuse the current situation more than anything else, and whether they were real or how the mention of ghosts came into the picture as well. The clear statement that a bear was nearby gave her something to immediately focus on though. "Well then perhaps we should go investigate that immediately then?" Ash says eagerly.

descriptionAsh, the shortened version of her name that she primarily uses, especially with the scaleless, is an empathetic young female lizardfolk. Always concerned with the care of those in need, particularly the wounded, she goes out of her way to assist them, even complete strangers. Its why she became a field medic and followed the Way of the Water, for which she had a marked affinity.


She's quite small for a lizardfolk who are typically about the same size as a larger human. Her tribe, a cliffscale species is instead much smaller, slender and lithe, almost identical in size to that of a typical gnome but with a long slender tail of course. Her scales are a sandy tan and gray with darker mottled spots and her hands, feet, fingers, and toes allow her to scale sheer surfaces with ease. Most of her clothing is tan or a shade of gray-brown, her favorite color, and tends towards being short and non-binding or custom fitted, allowing her a freedom of movement more restrictive clothing simply won't. | application | pb sheetAshara'Rusa Chua'Kaolo, a.k.a.

"Perhaps the questions could be answered on the way?", Crastug suggests. "If we can get the opportunity to observe the creature for ourselves I do think we should take it..."

"Would you accompany us?", he asks Terast.

"Are you saying that the actual cubs come out during the day and the bear follows them, then their ghosts come out at night, but she doesn't follow? How can the cubs both be alive and ghosts? Are you suggesting some sort of spirit walk?", he asks, trying to envision what the man is describing.

"Give us the short version now, and then accompany us if you can keep up. If you do, you can explain better on the way, but we don't want to lose track of the bear now."

Flight (25'), Darkvision, Speech

Circe doing her 'there's no-one else in the world thing' while listening to Eireann, turns her gaze to her familiar, Peek. She doesn't make the request of Peek however.

Peek looking through Eireann in the fashion of raptors replies in thuggish common worthy of brothel doorman.. "Yeah, boss ah can dae that.", clearly addressing his mistress. Still looking at Eireann, he continues.. "Ah can see ye lot fir miles anyhoo. Yir Eireann, right?"

Eireann smiled at the owl

"I bet you can, eye sight even an elf can't beat! Colour me impressed. I don't say that to many, be the beast, bird, boy or bunyip. You would make a wonderful look out if someone was up to mischief. But yes, that is right, they call me Eireann."

 

[foltor]

Terast shrugs and grabs a small pack from a peg by the door, ready to follow Peek's lead. He addresses Vega with another shrug.

"Like I said, two bear cub ghosts is out at night. Jus' kinda...rompin' around. Kinda blue and glowy. But, nah, no boot tracks out here, 'cept my own. An' your'n now, I s'pose."

He shrugs at Castrug's questions.

"Unless they're the ghosts of two other bear cubs. There ain't but a dozen bears in the whole valley."

[The Eyeball Kid]

Crastug shrugs, still unsure what the tracker is actually saying about the cubs, but figures that maybe he'll understand once he sees it for himself and follows along.

Devise a Stratagem  (Concentrate, Fortune, Investigator) Frequency once per round
You assess a foe's weaknesses in combat and use them to formulate a plan of attack against your enemy. Choose a creature you can see and roll a d20. If you Strike the chosen creature later this round, you must use the result of the roll you made to Devise a Stratagem for your Strike's attack roll instead of rolling. You make this substitution only for the first Strike you make against the creature this round, not any subsequent attacks.

When you make this substitution, you can also add your Intelligence modifier to your attack roll instead of your Strength or Dexterity modifier, provided your Strike uses an agile or finesse melee weapon, an agile or finesse unarmed attack, a ranged weapon (which must be agile or finesse if it's a melee weapon with the thrown trait), or a sap.

If you're aware that the creature you choose is the subject of a lead you're pursuing, you can use this ability as a free action.
