Raid on Snowspire/Defending Snowspire

[Griff Trevin]

Griff travelled ahead to Snowspire before everone else so he could get some scouting done. He stood in the snowy pass, looking down on the villiage with Tucker at his side.
"If I had of realised it was this cold I would of brought some warmer clothes" Griff said to Tucker.
Leaning against a large stone, he looked over the villiage, mentally noting all the entrances and guards patrolling.
The path down to the villiage was a short one, though it was steep and appeared to be slippary. There was a large fortified wall that ran around the perimetre and two large gates at either end, with guards in a tower overlooking the gates.

"This isn't going to be as easy as I thought, but there has to be a decent amount of money in there for the taking." he thought.

He sat down in the shelter of the rock and waited for the others to arrive, hoping that Violet was safe at home.
"She's obviously warmer than I am right now. Tucker, come lay on me, I'm freezing"

[Gregory Marrowson]

Gregory hiked up to the meeting point for the raid. His usual clothing kept him warm enough. At the top of the hill was another bandit and a dog.
"Griff I believe. You greeted me before Hawk made me a bandit of his camp." Greg stuck out his hand.

"I didn't give you a name though, Gregory Marrowson. But call me by my last name."

[David G. Fairfax]

David was in the pub, he had heard the whispers of the raid and was prepared to stop it. He was able to evacuate a few people, but most didn't believe they were in any real danger. David took one last swig of his beer and then tried to enjoy were he was, this was his first time in the Northern Wastes. But that aside, their was no time for sight seeing, the Bandits would attack soon, David could feel it in his blood.

[Rex]

Rex arrived. He had brought a sack of fur clothing for the bandits, and masks, so when they attacked, no one would know who they were. He passed the new clothes out to the two men who were already there.
"They are prepared." Rex said to Griff.
"They know we're coming."

[Hawk]

Hawk emerged from the white snow. He looked around and smiled, his bandits were already there preparing themselves for the raid.

'So what's the plan of action?' asked Hawk to Griff. He knew Griff would have scouted the area for any immediate danger before any of the bandits came so that they would not get ambushed.
Hawk looked over the edge to see a long steep path heading down towards the village. He heard Rex explain that the guards knew they were coming.
'This may be a bit tougher than the Knothole Glade raid' said Hawk quietly.

[Rex]

Rex whispered to Hawk. He had tactics Hawk did not yet know.
"Hawk. If we send a smaller force to act as a diversion at the front gate, then we flank them and sneak over the walls, attacking the defence from behind, and circling them."

[Hawk]

Hawk listened carefully whilst crouching down in the snow so that nobody from the village would see him.
'Sounds like the sort of tactics I would use' said hawk with a smile.
'Griff what do you think about this plan?' asked Hawk to Griff who was sitting nearby talking to the others.
'If this does go ahead though, I think I will provide the distraction as I am not the best at climbing walls' said Hawk whilst looking down at his giant size.

[Rex]

-Whilst Looking down at his (almost as) giant size, Rex spoke.
"Neither am I. That makes two of us." Rex said, unsheathing his warhammer.
"I think Hawk and I are more than capable to cause diversion for rest of you."

[Margath Lurzaneck]

Margath nodded. "Agreed." he said as he took out The Markus. "hope you two can handle it."

[Rex]

Rex nodded at Margath, waiting for Griffs reply.

[Linsey Callows]

The rogue walked up on the bandits and smiled.
"Hello everyone. I will be more than gladly to climb over the wall for ya. I've done it so many times in my childhood, that its like taking a bite out of an apple. " Linsey said. She looked down at her old village. Where she was born and raised. Inside a small orphanage. The first thing she would do is go to the orphanage and get the children out. If any bandit tried to kill the children, workers, or burn the small shack down; Linsey would personally defend the orphanage.

[Griff Trevin]

Griff had listened to everyone's point of view on how to get in, and he wasn't too fond of putting Hawk and Rex in the open. The one person who had interested him the most was Linsey.
"Well Hawk, I have no doubt that you and Rex can hold your own as a distraction, but Linsey is the key in my opinion. She knows the villiage, and she can climb the fence. Why not have her get over the fence and open the gate. She is small and agile enough to move around quickly and quietly. We could wait here, and once we see those gates open, we run in, blades drawn." Griff proposed.

He slipped on the warm clothes that Rex had brought with him and continued.
"I won't stop you guys if you want to do some fighting, but this way we at least know the gates will get opened for us, then we can fight all we want. What do you think?"

[Gregory Marrowson]

"I'll go with her. It shouldn't be too hard and if she needs help on the other side before the gate open, I'll be there to help." Gregory wasn't too large in size like Hawk or Rex was. He was quick and agile.

[Margath Lurzaneck]

Margath stared at Griff and nodded. "Good plan."

[Hawk]

'Ok, lets just hope they don't get spotted by the watch towers' said Hawk with a smile. He took out a flattened carrot from his back pocket and began to munch on it whilst lying down with his back against a large pile of snow.

[Griff Trevin]

"Ok Linsey, Gregory. This raid relies on you two getting that gate open. We'll be ready, as soon as it opens we will charge in" Griff said

[Linsey Callows]

Linsey nodded and turned to Gregory.
"Follow me and attempt to keep up." The rogue ran and jumped off a rock landing on a slope sliding down to the village, she ducked down while sliding; she made a hand motion for Greg to duck down while sliding as well. Linsey learned her lesson when she got caught trying to sneak back into the village. The both of them reached the bottom and Linsey dashed for the gate wall and hid in the looming shadow.

"Now, what were are going to do is practically fly up the wall. Just take a few feet back and run. Press your feet on the wall and jump. IF you jump high enough grabbed the top and place one of your feet in that crack." she said pointing at the hole in the wall.
"You got that?

[Rex]

Rex pounded on the gate. He thought the new idea was ridiculous, and would stick with his tactics. The gate opened, and the guards ran out, emptying the town. They began their attack on Rex.

[Gregory Marrowson]

Gregory chuckled at Linsey's comment. He followed her every move sliding down the slope to ducking down. The bandit reached the bottom of the slope and sprinted to the wall. As he reached it the wall he leaned against the wall blending in with the shadows. Greg nodded and walked back a few feet and grinned.

He ran at the wall full speed. With ease, he pressed his left foor against the wall and forced his body up. In a matter of seconds he barely reached the top. His hand grabbed the wall's edge and he guided his foot into a crack. With his right foot, Gregory kicked off the wall and jumped over the wall.

He landed in a pile of snow with a soft thud. Quickly the bandit unstealthed his sword ready to kill any gaurd that spotted him.

[Linsey Callows]

Linsey let out a quiet giggle. Greg had a little struggle reaching the top. That is the reason she stuck to light things. Linsey followed Gregory's exact movements (but was able to reach the top) and landed next to him. She noticed that the bandit's sword was drawn so she pulled her daggers out and stood in attack position.


"You ready?" Linsey headed to the gate to let the bandits in. As they reached their destination, the gate was already open with the guards attacking the idiot Rex. She turned to Greg.
"Please don't tell me you are going to help the fool?" Linsey didn't wait for a reply, she ran for the orphanage to evacuate the orphanage and the people who raised her for a part of her life.

((Hope you don't mind about what I put in the first paragraph Greg ))
