The day had not been going well for Lyssa, all things considered. Somewhere along the day's path, her bedroll had fallen off her pack and she had not noticed until it was long gone from sight. She still had her spell components, still had the canisters that slotted into her gun, and her spellbook was put away very safely, so she wasn't in the worst straits, but it was unpleasant nonetheless. Plus, she was broke.<br/><br/>That meant the reptilian raiders were a mix of blessing and curse - lizardwomen were notorious brutal warriors if they got up close, and without a ride in sight, these two would likely want the mounts that were currently being used by their client. But for the imminent fight, it'd be a damned good way to let off some steam. She tried to suppress the smile that threatened to dance out onto her lips, but it was a losing game. Instead, she twisted the laughter into arcane syllables and eldritch gestures that invoked power, bringing forth billowing fog around herself and (thankfully) the client behind her.<br/><br/>She then walked out from the mist, her pneumatic rifle finding its way into her hand. She didn't aim it yet as she moved, placing herself prominently at the corner of the junction, at the front. She only watched the two robbers and slowly shook her head, knowing they would see the wagon. If they were smart and took her warning, then there would be no fight to be had, but Lyssa doubted that would happen. But if there was a fight, well, she was ready. Ready and waiting.<strong>"Ready to earn out keep?"</strong>she asked her fellow mercenary, practically humming to herself.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Sheet</div><div class="spoiler_body">Character: Lyssa (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=311475.msg15104618#msg15104618)<br/>Sheet: here (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=2015597)<br/>HP: 16/16<br/>AC: 13<br/>Spells Readied: <br/>  1st: Secluded Grimoire, Obscuring Mist, Grease, <em>Bonded Object Spell</em> <strong>(6 Round General Recharge)</strong><br/></div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Actions</div><div class="spoiler_body">Surprise Standard: Cast Obscuring Mist to protect the client, 7 round recharge (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=140130).<br/><br/>Initiative: 25 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=140131)<br/><br/>Round 1 Move: Draw gun<br/>             Move: Move up</div></div>
