The War in the Willows - Chapter One

Now we start getting into the heavy hitters for my warband.

Thomas is a level 5 Snail (Tortoise Profile)

He was supposed to be my tank, but ended up more like a pillbox.

For skills, he has Tough 5 and Lucky.  He is armed with his trusty mace, heavy armour and a heavy shield.  If he can get into combat, he is pretty good at whacking.

He is going in with 5 fate points (as per my previous post, a lot of my characters are going into the finale with a ridiculous amount of fate)

Morrigan is next.

He is a level 7 Crow (Large Bird)

He is equipped with a Bow, Sword, Light Armour, 6 Broadhead Arrows and 3 doses of Mortal Poison.

For skills he has, Flight (obviously, he’s a bird), Expert Shot, Wounding Shot and Tough 1

Morrigan has been fun to play, he is incredibly self-centred and does his best to stay away from trouble.  He has a fortitude of 10, making him quite resilient to taking long-term injuries.   He has made a friend of Neville and has something of a love-hate relationship with Thomas.

He is sitting on 4 Fate Points and 2 Experience Points.

The next up is a bit of a surprise…

Maverick!

Yes, Maverick, my Level 9 Fox, who is also my leader, is not my highest-ranked member.

He has the following skills: Strong 4, Tough 4, Fearless, Lucky and Furious Charge.

He is sitting on 5 Fate Points going into the final battle and is equipped with a Two-Handed Sword, Heavy Armour, +2 Ring of Protection and a Mirror Talisman.

Maverick has been the backbone of my force.  Holding the line where needed and being taken out a few times, although never actually suffering a long-term injury.  If Neville can get a Haste spell off on him, he can cover a lot of ground and give a pretty hefty smack to someone.

That just leaves the top spot, which goes to…

…Bramble, my second in command, who is a Level 10 Fox.

Bramble has the following Skills.  Strong 1, Tough 1, Expert Shot, Wounding Shot, Crippling Shot and Spot the Weak Point,

She is equipped with a Venom Bow, Sword, Light Armour, a Mirror Talisman and 6 Broadhead Arrows.

Bramble has been very lucky, managing to get not one free advance from the Temple of Light but two.

With a Perfect Roll on her bow after focusing, she hits at 21 points with 11 points added to the wounds, ignoring Tough from armour.  It’s insane.

She will be going into battle with 5 Fate Points.
