Location: Maztica, in the jungle
Time: Morning
Tabby glances around and sniffs at the air trying to find anyone ambushing you while
North hides in Ashley¡¯s shadow.
Flynn plays a tune whilst Cerina readies a pair of arrows.
Then the Barbarian sees a shadow shift in the trees and hurls himself up to grab a branch and swing his feet up and over. He leaps through the air, axe arcing through the leaves-
The hoots and howls of a dozen simian goblinoids suddenly sound all about and fist sized rocks begin to rain down.
Brother Ashley gets hit in the shoulder, Cerina and
Flynn each get hit in the back, but?Tabby deftly dodges the incoming inundation.
Sweet William gets hit twice in the chest but ignores the ache, bringing his blade to bear against one of the small creatures, cleaving and dropping it in one hit.
The creatures quickly scatter, still whooping and screeching as they fade into the shadows.
The body falls to the ground near the Gnome. It¡¯s about 3?ft tall with gold,?-like
eyes and green skin thinly covered in coarse, black hair. Its knuckles are scuffed and scarred with callouses.
¡°The Tasloi are no threat to you,¡± a female voice calls in common from about fifty yards away. An instant later a yellow robed, hooded figure steps out of a tree and touches
Flynn, her healing magic relieving the pain from his back.
¡°Sure seemed like a threat to me,¡± Brother Ashley mutters, rubbing his bruised shoulder.
Without lowering her cowl, the woman kneels by the fallen body and asks, ¡°Who are you to kill them in their home?¡± She touches the downed goblinoid and its eyes flutter and blink. It shrieks loudly, rolls over and scampers off, disappearing
into the underbrush.
¡°They attacked us,¡± Ashley explains.?
¡°You are not of the jungle,¡± the woman says, face still hidden in the shadows of her cloak hood. ¡°But?you?are,¡±
she says, turning to face Tabby.
The young Tabaxi Monk sees her own face reflected back at her from within the coif. As the female lowers her head covering, she reveals a Tabaxi face with almost purple-black fur and deep gold eyes.
The mysterious Tabaxi sniffs the air near Tabby and cocks an eyebrow, adding, ¡°Or?are?²â´Ç³Ü?¡±
Before Tabby can reply another female voice says, ¡°Sister, do not be rude.¡± Another female Tabaxi steps out of a nearby tree, this one also looks like
Tabby but with green fur and eyes. ¡°They were defending themselves. The balance was not broken.¡± She turns to examine
°Õ²¹²ú²ú²â¡¯²õ face, adding, ¡°And she most certainly is.¡±
¡°Forgive her,¡± the green one says, addressing the entire group. ¡°We do not often have guests, so her manners are. . . unpracticed.¡±
And what do you do?
