You've been huntnig down a wizard who's been sending orcs to pillage the country side.  After getting the information from an orc, you find out where this guy's been hiding in the woods.  You manage to sneak up most of the way, when you see him with four other orcs.  So far, they don't see you.

The orcs are wearing scale mail and have falchions and javelins.  The wizard appears to be donned in loose-fitting clothing, and it looks like he has a crossbow hanging at his waist.


Initiative rolls:

Thorden -> d20 + 1 = 6
Ixen -> d20 + 8 = 10
Serias -> d20 + 8 = 16
Aepa -> d20 + 9 = 29
Grizz -> d20 + 4 = 7

Wizard -> d20 + 6 = 25
Orc 1 -> d20 = 15
Orc 2 -> d20 = 10
Orc 3 -> d20 = 9
Orc 4 -> d20 = 8


Modified Initiative:
Aepa (29)
Wizard (25)
Serias (16)
Orc 1 (15)
Ixen (10 - higher Dex)
Orc 2 (10)
Orc 3 (9)
Orc 4 (8)
Grizz (7)
Thorden (6)


Map:


Round 1
(I'll call this round 1 in that it's not really a surprise round.  No one even knows you're there.)


Aepa!  You're up!

without a map I can't say too much, but I know I will attempt to move closer stealthily so that I can be in range to use my powers.

Double move to Z10, half speed to not take penalty to hide and move silently. 1d20+12=17, 1d20+12=25

Double move to W22 sneaking.
Hide, Move Silently. (1d20+8=10, 1d20+7=26)
Not good rolls, lets hope the distance makes up for it.

And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right?
