Anastasia figured they were heading into a trap. Mostly because the last 4 priestesses headed down this road had clearly headed into a trap. Still, she had a shield on one arm and a morning star draped over her lap. It was hard to make a morning star 'comfortable'. Especially when your armor came in the form of a skimpy two piece. But she suffered for her ... career? Her thoughts continued like this - until someone talked about a random encounter. Such an obvious one. There was probably going to be nets. Lots of nets. At least the elven girl they'd strung up was<em>cute</em>.<br/><br/>Now what did the Adventurer's Manual say?<br/>One: Open with a cheesy line. This helps win over the ladies.<strong>"Didn't your mother teach you not to hang about in random encounters? You never know what you might end up tied up in."</strong><br/>Two: Draw your weapon. Well she'd already done that! Two gold stars for Anastasia!<br/>Three: Check for ambush. She'd rolled her spot check... Though she was actually pretty sure she'd been seeing more of the forest before she started trying to look at it. It totally wasn't her fault this elf had a cute ass...<br/>Four: Attack the enemy. Right, the enemy... Where were they again?<br/>Five: If in doubt, bluff.<br/><br/>Anastasia put on her most official High Priestess voice, calling out "Random Encounter Surprise Inspection! Would all random combatants please come and form an orderly line beside this horse. Remember to pull out any relevant papers like your Monstrous Guild Membership or your current Random Encounter Pass."<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">10 on Spot (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?v=14)... 13 on initative.
