**White Beach**

**Days 97 (20th May)**

In following the trail from the attacked farmhouse the party has come across a group of 5 teenagers. The kids are obviously ill equipped for chasing down a wild animal or monster and have come to realise it, in other words they are scared. The party has reorganised the campsite, and rebuilt the fire more sensibly. After brief discussions and investigations of the teenagers, people settle down for the night.

## The Teenagers

### Conn

(Human Male): Ostensibly the leader of the group, he will explain that the farm that was attacked belonged to his Uncle. The occupants of the farm were his Uncle and Aunt and their eldest son, whilst the farmhouse was fortified to a degree there has been no trouble for many years and the occupants would not have expected to be attacked. It was Conn who persuaded his companions to join him, believing that they were after a bear or similar animal. Conn is now not so sure.

HP: 7 AC: 9

Makeshift Spear (D6-1): +1 to hit, +1 damage

Sling + 20 stones: +0/+0

### Aliar

(Human Male): Conns best friend, strong for his age but with a slightly cleft palate – so he doesn’t speak much and generally just follows Conns lead.

HP: 9 AC: 9

Makeshift Spear (D6-1): +1 to hit, +3 damage

Sling + 20 stones: +0/+0

### Theln

(Human Female): Distantly related to the occupants of the farmhouse, she will explain at great length how she always knew this was a bad idea but came along to make sure Conn didn’t get carried away.

HP: 6 AC: 8

Makeshift Spear (D6-1): +0/+0

Sling + 20 stones: +0/+0

### Oosda

(Ariel Male): Persuaded to come by Conn, the parties first impression is that Ossda is probably the most competent of the group. His mother was a nomad, who has now settled in White Beach, and from her he has gained some basic survival skills.

HP: 4 AC: 7

Makeshift Spear (D6-1): +0/+0

Sling + 20 stones: +2/+0

### Chur

(Human Male): Obviously besotted with Theln, and totally out of his depth here. It is difficult to really get much out of him, since he always follows Thelns lead to the point of letting her do most of his talking.

HP: 8 AC: 9

Makeshift Spear (D6-1): +0/+1

Cudgel (D6): +0/+1

Sling +20 stones: +0/+0

## First/Second Watch

First watch has just been completed and those on second watch are up and active, those on first watch are settling down for some sleep. The sky is slightly overcast and there is a light breeze from the east.

The peace is disturbed by a loud roar from the west, and the party hears something large approaching through the grass and brush. The beast (and yes it is an Owlbear), makes the mistake of halting just at the edge of the camp, rearing up and roaring even louder – if possible. The Owlbear bears a couple of wounds, and there is fresh blood on its’ beak.

For its pains, the beast gets peppered with arrows from Umar, Francis and Twoo and collapses in a heap. The group of teenagers, who were awake but not combat ready, let out a loud series of whoops and cheers when the Owlbear collapses – but are quickly silenced by Francis.

For a few minutes nothing much can be heard apart from the odd crackle from the fire, and then a series of roars are heard in the distance. It is difficult to tell, but you would guess four or maybe five beasts…….
