The hawk looks pensive as ever despite swallowing the scrap of meat, then Aldemaar smiles and nods, holding the hawk in front of him and turning his head to put his ear to the beak of the bird . "Good then, fire away."<br/><br/>As the hawk leans close, there is a low buzzing sound as if of something in the air. The next instant, the bird's form suddenly bloats and explodes into a powerful deadly burst of burning acid, coated with flesh and blood.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">rolls</div><div class="spoiler_body">Roll 2d6 to see if FT or Schn is in radius of blast. 3- is in<br/>https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=101390<br/>1, 4.

Her unsoldierly leather top is blown open by the explosion, the bindings holding in her ample bosom bursting, but not altogether obvious now as she is prone.<br/><br/>What happened to her is nothing though compared to their ally. The body that had once been Aldemaar topples over, its arm head and half of his chest blown apart, pieces of his flesh - or maybe the hawks flesh - now adorning the impassive roots of the gigantic tree that framed the bower he had emerged from.<br/><br/>From the woods nearby emerge two bugbears, only a short distance (ie 5sq) away in this small clearing, grinning, one hefting a big morningstar and the other what looked like a whip but barely a quarter of the length, probably 3-4' long only.<br/><br/>(http://castlesandcooks.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Bugbear.jpg)<br/><br/>From the woods behind them in cover, they can see a shadowy hooded figure within the cover of trees, medium distance, but halfway between them and the figure is forest.<br/>( 5 sq to reach the woods, then pass through another 5 squares of DT to reach hooded figure, and it always has cover )<br/><br/>INITIATIVE<br/>13 Tashiel - 31/39*<br/>8 Enemies<br/>8 Senna - 31/35<br/><br/>* - note Tashiel should have 39 HP due to always using highest stat in place of Con for HP.<br/><br/>( minor edit to increase Senna's init to 8, since Init includes half level bonus )<br/>
