Turning your head towards it you see a sight that you wouldn’t think possible. The massive wolf steps out of the save and it’s body ripples with muscle and power. A few arrows stick out of it’s hide from where you scored a blow on it a number of days <br/>ago but the wounds have clearly sealed up. You also see something within its eyes. They are black as night and flicker with in-human intelligence. <br/><br/>It moves slowly as if pleased with the results of your efforts bearing its sharp, blood soaked teeth in your direction. You can feel it smiling at your plight as its body tenses for the charge. Initiative: 9 <br/><br/><strong>Area: </strong>Lightly wooded cover and bushes, along with the tree you are trying to climb, even with success it can jump and attack. Which will force another climb check. There are some dead trees you can use as elevated terrain or bushes for light concealment. But they would only last a round or so. <br/><br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>He found a number of things to be unexpected.  First, why couldn't he climb this goddamn tree?  Second, the dire wolf was a werewolf!<br/><br/>"Of all the nasty tricks," he muttered, dagger clenched between his teeth.  Before the wolf could even take a step forward, the ranger leveled his heirloom, the magical bow that had been bestowed upon him at his father's march into the darkness, and shot two arrows, one and two, in an effort to stop the beast.  Then he jumped to the side, in an effort to cease the charge.<br/><br/>A high-pitched squawk of a hawk is head overhead.<br/><br/><strong>OOC</strong><br/>Wick rolled a 15 initiative.<br/>Wick rolled an 18+8=26 on first arrow, doing 8 damage if successful.<br/>Wick rolled an 11+9=19 on second arrow, doing 12 damage if successful.<br/>Wick has moved 5 feet as a free action to disallow charge attempt (wolf will not get a +2 to ATK, -2 to AC) if and only if werewolf has a 5 ft. face.
