Its that RP thread again! Spectators can shitpost, new players can try it out with little/no investment, and established players need no explanation.

We return as most of the party is either in Sparintenar preparing for a swank banquet - a custom among the Spartans - or speeding towards; except Thez. ;_;

Our newest player Stix is exploring the surrounding forest area, as is his proclivity as a ranger.
Tracy, speeds toward Sparintenar at full speed for some reason unknown to GM at time of OP.
Thez is at the Sticky Wickett, having brought Bones along to have a mostly one-sided conversation, accented occasionally by >doot

Game is temporally not set to fire off at a particular point, but last thread passed 2nd bump so,....
1364 replies and 103 files omitted.

You took a hombrew feat to get 4 extra spells, and you can cast a 7th level clerical evocation, and your mount/cohort has a higher ECL than you do.
At least Might Makes Right is published material.

As Stix stands there wondering the significance of the tree, a weird sound slowly starts to resonate. Its night time by the way.
Its almost like a buzzing, but at the same time it sounds like a disorganized jumble of sounds. It seems to emanate from the tree, and is growing louder.

Hastily attempting to conceal himself amongst the fallen leaves and debris, Stix watches as a series of tiny humanoids, no more than approximately 3-4" tall, start streaming from the tree in swarms. They collect together into large groups, that are constanly streaming, climbing, and jumbled together into masses that seem vaguely humanoid sized, each a swirling mass of constant tiny moving. Oh, and they're all gibbering at eachother unintelligibly.

He sets up his bow by digging one end in the dirt a bit. As you could imagine, bows are not a pony’s first choice in long range combat.

and could I set up a trap for them? Would that take a roll to set up, or only one when they activate it to see if it works?
