GWG, just to make sure I understand, OOC, are you talking about Juba or Falvich? Juba is the human behind you, Falvich is the elf ahead looting corpses.

TURN 10

Juba Freedmen

Stuff every single item I find into the sacks as I go no matter what it is, find the ogre and very politely tell him to follow me then head straight off the battlefield as fast as I can whether I find him or he follows me or not.

[1] Juba finds nothing as he [3] hurries along the tracks and spots the half ogre just as it begins to run off. [4] He begins sprinting through the battlefield after him glancing back, Juba spots several heavily armored figures lumbering after him.

Derm

Onwards!

[3] Soon, Derm finds the path leaves the forest out into an open plain. [3] In the distance, he thinks he can see what looks to be a stone wall.

Gweg Kenson

Keep.
Running.
FAST!
(Grab any loot I come across, I'm seriously in debt.)

[3] Gweg continues to chase after the elf who seems to have stopped and is now looting a nearby corpse. [3-1=2] While running Gweg only manages to find a sack. [4] He glances behind him and realizes he is being followed by a human.

Atla

Creepy. Just like the time when I was up in Oratay. That place was weird. Hang on to the spear for throwing and check out the halberd. What's it made of? Is it sturdy or just fancy? Anywho, attempt to discern the source or direction of the "thundering". Grab some armour while I'm discerning.

Atla examines the halberd, [4] it seems to just be a sturdy steel halberd. Checking around him he notices several heavily armored soldiers heading towards him. [1] Too distracted by the approaching figures he fails to grab any armor.

Falvich

Falvich just wants out of this damn place. But, wait...What's that? Is that a wizard's corpse? Oh em gee, it must be relived of it's objects of value! Who knows what would happen if a WIZARD ZOMBIE arose, shrouded in HIGHLY MAGICAL ROBES with DOZENS OF VALUABLE, ENCHANTED RINGS and a staff of +6 MURDERING? Gods above, this elf must SAVE all those poor, potential victims! By...Looting! By the way, he'll loot without running. He's far enough away, he can take his time. If that guy gets closer, just shout out something like "I'm just a poor peasant m'lord, trying to escape this gruesome battle which, miraculously, I survived! Please don't harm me!"

"My loot cries out for the vengeance of my other loot, which can only be repaid with at least twice as much loot! Or maybe three times as much loot! Like if you went to heaven, and it was full of loot, and that loot was on fire, and it was raining loot, then maybe that would be enough loot! Eh... but probably not."

Falvich goes utterly batshit insane and starts looting a nearby wizard's corpse. [6+1=7] He snatches up two unidentified rings and [2] a sack. He glances around and notices the half ogre hasn't gained on him but an old foe has. Three of the heavily armored figures from before are approaching from his left.

Groz Talvor

Groz sniffs the air. "Storm's acoming. After looking for any other valuables - magical or not - he scurries away from the thundering.

[5] Groz grabs a ring and a robe from a nearby corpse and begins to move away from the thundering, checking around he notices a couple of heavily armored soldiers moving toward him.

A Bunch of Heavily Armored Soldiers

Find the survivors!

It was 9AM when you posted that.

Fixed.

TURN 9

Derm

Onwards! To the left assuming I came at the trail perpendicularly!

Derm turns and heads down the path to the left for some time [2] not making much progress, but progress nonetheless. [1] Derm sees absolutely nothing of note... except some trees.

Gweg Kenson

"Oy...This can't be good...and there's that coward..."

Chase the figure. Request that he tell me the phrase used to denote his identity, unless he is curious as to the structure of the Afterlife. Not in such fancy words.
If possible, grab loot, because my dedication to not grabbing stuff when it doesn't make sense to has left me under-equipped.

Gweg begins running toward the figure [2 vs. 3] but fails to gain any ground. Gweg calls out, "Identify yourself, I do not wish to kill you but I may have to if you do not respond!" [2-1=1] While running Gweg fails to grab any loot.

Falvich

Falvich will push onwards, and get out of the battlefield!

But, while doing so inthemeantimehe'llstopbyandgrabanyvaluables such as, but not limited to: Magical trinkets/scrolls, jewelry, coins of any kind/etc.

LOOT, man.

Falvich hears a voice calling out from behind him "Identify yourself, I do not wish to kill you but I may have to if you do not respond!" [4] Falvich continues running through the battlefield, [3-1] failing to get any loot as he does so. He should reach the edge of the battlefield next turn.

Atla

High five!! You're so cool.
Search for better armour, even though I'm technically made of it.

[3] You give your golem high five and begins searching for armor, [4] He finds no retrievable armor but he does find a nice halberd.

Groz Talvor

"You need to walk the other way, fella."
Reform figure's feet so they're on backwards.

Calling upon his magic [4-1+1=4] Groz twists the figure's feet around at the ankle [1 vs. 6] the figure trips and falls to the ground and impales his heart on a nearby sword.

Juba Freedmen

Follow the tracks and continue gathering equipment.

[2+1] Juba continues to follow the footprints and hears a voice calling out in the distance. [6-1=5] On his way through he manages to grab 5 sacks from some nearby corpses.


Falvich, Gweg Kenson, Groz Talvor, Juba Freedmen, and Atla all hear a loud thundering in the vicinity.


By the way, I added a modifier of -1 when attempting to loot while running.

((Onyxjew944 said I can't do anything but try to get rid of you. I'll die next turn if I don't reach shelter.))

TURN 8

Juba Freedmen

Turn round and head back into the battlefield towards where I saw the half ogre earlier, continue gathering equipment on the way and look for any other survivors, but do not head to far back into the battlefield.

Juba turns away from the meadow and heads back through the battlefield, [1] through his trek he finds nothing, no survivors, no equipment. He searches the general area around the half ogre's position [1+3=4] and notices a trail of large footprints.

Groz Talvor

Call out to the approaching figure.
"Greetings, fellow flesh! Come to partake in the pickings? I thing I got everything I need here though; you can have the rest. Except for any shinies. Those are mine."
Search around for any rings, bracelets, necklaces, amulets, etc, that might be around here. Use magic to see magic items; collect those first.

Groz calls out to the figure, "Greetings, fellow flesh! Come to partake in the pickings? I thing I got everything I need here though; you can have the rest. Except for any shinies. Those are mine." Seemingly enraged the figure raises its sword and charges toward him shouting "You bastard!", though the figure appears to be limping. [3] Quickly Groz snatched up a small ring and placed it in his pocket. The figure should reach him by next turn.

Derm

Keep heading outwards. Keep Harquebus at the ready.

[5] Derm hurriedly climbs back down the tree and begins moving his way through the forest once more, Harquebus at the ready. [4] Soon after, he finds a small nondescript trail.

Atla

Pat my golem on the head. You're such a badass dude.
Find a way off the battlefield.

Atla pats his golem on the head while calling him a badass. [6] The golem raises his hand with his fingers splayed out, he seems to want a high five. [1] Atla is too preoccupied with his golem to try leaving the battlefield

Falvich

Falvich will leave this battlegrounds! Looting on his way out, of course. Aim specifically for magical items/money/good weapons to replace his old, junky ones.

Falvich ignores the voice calling to him and runs while he is running he grabs [6] 3 [5+1] exceptional daggers, dropping his other junky dagger on the floor. [4] He should be out of the battlefield in two turns.

Gweg Kenson

Do I hear the thundering? If so, try to figure out what and where it is. If not, call out to the figure again.

Gweg no longer hears the thundering, but it's too late to call out to the figure, it has already ran off. Suddenly, the booming returns. [2] He turns and looks around but fails to spot anything. [4] It seems to slowly be coming closer.
