==== Monsters ==== {{encounter header}} {{encounter row|1, 18, 0|{{Cn|Crusader}}s | The mercenary captain stepped forward:<p>{{Cn|Crusader}}: "What the hell! This is our secret encampment. Nobody knows of it!"<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: "Relax, buddy!" I said. "Me and the lads are merely exploring the island."<p>{{Cn|Crusader}}: "I will relax you, permanently!" spat the swashbuckler, drawing his sword.</p>}} {{encounter row|3, 6, 0|{{Cn|Gorgon}}s | Unexpectedly, we spotted out scout running toward us in fulll sail. He flew right past me before I could even get a word in. As we scanned our surroundings in confusion, several enormous beasts leapt out from the jungle. They looked like a cross between a cow and a [[basilisk]].}} {{encounter row|4, 11, 0|{{Cn|Ogre}}s | The most unpleasant creatures in existence, after wild [[orc|orcs]], are wild [[ogre|ogres]]. And the latter are even dumber than the former. Dressed in hides with skulls hanging off their fetid clothing, these great shambling green hulks were breaking through the jungle. They could be heard from miles away, and those huge cudgels they carry can smash a human like a bedbug. That's why I advised the troops to quickly retreat to safe ground before opening fire.}} {{encounter row|4, 21, 0|{{Cn|Orc|name=Orcs|image=Orc (HotA)}} | We kept encountering skulls impaled on stakes. I've heard that wild [[orc|orcs]] mark their territory that way. With this in mind, I ordered my men to ready their weapons.}} {{encounter row|5, 3, 0|{{Cn|Roc}}s | A piercing screech sounded above us. Looking up, I spotted huge predatory birds circling over our heads. I don't know what we looked like to them, but whether men or mice, we had to be prepared for a sudden attack.}} {{encounter row|8, 21, 0|{{Cn|Lizardman|name=Lizardmen}} | An arrow whistled within inches of my ear. [[Patris]] jumped behind a tree just in time, and I quickly followed suit.<p>{{Cn|Pirate}}: "It's a trap!" yelled one of our boys.<p>Thank you so much for the clarification. As if I needed a hint that this wasn’t a meet-and-greet party. Squinting, I managed to spot our culprits hidden in the undergrowth. They looked like mean with lizard heads, dressed in loincloths. The [[lizardmen|lizard-men]] were standing ready with their bows, obviously not here for negotiations.</p>}} {{encounter row|9, 11, 0|{{Cn|Iron Golem}}s | {{Cn|Iron Golem}}: "Access denied, password required!" a voice boomed from within the iron statue.<p>The presence of these statues on the island warned me. I assumed they were golems, possibly guarding something of value.<p>[[Patris]]: "Cap'n, these things look like they're guarding an old storehouse of some kind," said [[Patris]], pointing over the golems' backs. "Surely there's booty aplenty in there."<p>{{Cn|Iron Golem}}: "Password not provided. Trespasser to be exterminated!" boomed the iron guard, jarring me from my deliberations. Suddenly, the guards attacked!</p>}} {{encounter row|13, 2, 0|{{cn|Dragon Fly|name=Dragon Flies}} | What could be worse than giant carnivorous dragonflies living near the river? Perhaps us getting near said river? Perhaps the fact that said dragonflies were looking at us? I managed to cut a few down, but it did not deter the rest of them.}} {{encounter row|16, 13, 0|{{Cn|Serpent Fly|name=Serpent Flies}} | There was a loud stir coming from the jungle. Fueled by curiosity, some of the crew and I went to investigate. As we moved in closer, the noise seemed to be moving toward us! I was about to command the crew to turn around, when suddenly a host of mosquitoes flew out of the jungle, each the size of a gull. I barely managed to unsheathe my sabre before they fell upon us...}} {{encounter row|17, 23, 0|{{cn|Crew Mate}}s|We came upon human footprints in the sand.<p>With high hopes, we followed the path, eventually finding a smuggler's hideout. They were unloading something from a boat when they spotted us. They appeared startled, but their sabres came out in no time.<p>[[Patris]]: "Cap'n, don't kill them all," [[Patris]] whispered.<p>"Just kill the hotheaded ones, and maybe the others will join us."</p>}} {{encounter row|21, 17, 0|{{cn|Mage}}s | I would not expect to see [[mage|mages]] here, but that structure towering over the jungle-I've seen those on [[Bracada]]'s coast before. But here? [[Patris]] jabbed my arm and wouldn't you know it, I turned just in the right moment to to see [[mage|mages]] appear out of thin air.<p>{{Cn|Mage}}: One of them yelled, "Aha! [[Malcom]] wasn't brave enough to show up himself, so he sent [[pirate|pirates]]! Whatever-we will not reveal out secrets!"<p>Who the hell is [[Malcom]]? Well, I don't think we'll have time to explain ourselves...}} {{encounter row|32, 5, 0|{{cn|Ogre Mage|name=Ogre Magi}} | A large axe-wielding [[ogre]] came out to meet us. He wore a surprisingly neat chainmail shirt and a black eyepatch.<p>{{Cn|Ogre Mage}}: “Did you come for your friends?” he growled.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “What friends?” I replied in surprise.<p>{{Cn|Ogre Mage}}: “[[Collar]]’s band. We captured their hideout and all their treasures. And we’re about to top our own coffers up a bit with your belongings,” the [[ogre]] grinned menacingly.<p>{{Hn|Jeremy|0=}}: “My dear friend, I have no idea what band you’re talking about, but if you want to take my stuff, then you'll have to take them from my corpse.”}} |}
