Scene II: Horsehead Ranch

11 + 1 = 12 for some clamberin'.

You, meanwhile, I have just recalled, are still recovering from your close shave with death.

You need to sit down and rest (+d4 HP) and maybe take a smoke (+1 HP) and a drink of water (+1HP) to recover from the ordeal, before you take any further actions near the ranch house.

[Stormbringer]

11 + 1 = 12 for some clamberin'.

Nice work!

You climb up that rope like the Pale Rider's on your tail!

Haulin' your ass over the side of the well, now you're in a state of shock and need a rest (+d4 HP) and a smoke (+1 HP) and a drink (+1 HP) to recover!

That's 2 on the d4. I don't have any water as I tipped it away to decant two doses of my laudanum into the flask before making the molotov (although I see now it's not on my character sheet, so not sure if I wasn't allowed to do that or if it just got missed in all the excitement?)

Either way I'll light up a smoke as I ponder the interior of the main house, to go up to 3 out of 4 hp.

Cumflutter passes the CK his water bottle.
" Just a sip now, you hear!?"

Ah, cool, yes I missed that detail but I shall amend this right away.

1 on the d4.

I thank Cumflutter for his gentlemanly concern and hand him 25 of the silver coins from the well for his troubles.

[Sly Boots]

Doc moseys on back to the rest of the group sitting around the well, including a wide-eyed, bedraggled Cadaver Kid - looking every inch his nickname, currently, Doc thinks to himself.

"Well, while you were taking in the many delightful spelunking spots in the region, I had a quick look-see in the main house. I couldn't see any sign of the inhabitants, which makes me think they're towards the southern end of the building - or not the north end, leastways. Nor any sign of Mumbling Manny, who I assume has escaped to warn his fellows about our presence.

"I suspect we'll need to act fast if we're to retain any element of surprise, though what that action should be, I can't imagine."

[Sly Boots]

It also occurs to Doc that they still haven't searched the hut Manny and co were in properly. Now that the eastern hut is free of tomahawks and other delights, he'll go over and poke around there looking for anything useful...

[Animalmother]

"Let's search and be done with this hellish location. Once proceeding have been completed I propose we burn the whole structure to the ground"

[Stormbringer]

I couldn't see any sign of the inhabitants, which makes me think they're towards the southern end of the building - or not the north end, leastways.

May I just remind the Doc that while he did indeed not see anyone through that one particular angle, he did hear some folks laughing and chatting in that room...

(also, Cadaver Kid might need some laudanum right now...not that I want to interfere too much)

[Mantis]

"Let's search and be done with this hellish location. Once proceeding have been completed I propose we burn the whole structure to the ground"

"I agree, good sir. It's time we quit all this jawin' and do things the old fashioned way."

Roach cocks his shotgun and aims it at the main building.

"Now just say the word boys, I can put that little door in with my big ol' boot, no problem. Don't ask how I know where to kick, I developed this skill in a rather harrowing affair of which the memory still displeases my stomach."

[Wrathbone]

Battered and stinking, I reload my revolver.

"Remember we want that combo, if we can persuade 'em to give it up. But I concur that they've signed their own death warrants."

[Animalmother]

"Our hungry friend in the well could be used to persuade the desired information if needed "

"Getting lowered head first into those jaws would get the devil himself to start yapping "

[Sly Boots]

Sensing the growing restlessness of his companions Doc will hasten his search of the building recently vacated by Manny...
