The village of Plucks Gutter sat near the ancient forest. Its people had long exploited the bounty of forest.

But they delved to deep, and violated a sacred grove. This earnt them the wrath of the elves. Skarloc and his wood elf archers decided to punish the humans for their wonton destruction.

In the late afternoon the villagers gathered ready for a performance by the vaulted actor Wilhelm Engels.

Wilhelm shouted a command to the villagers and they quickly took cover from the dreaded elven bow fire.

Glam the laughing warrior`s blades were thirsting for blood. He somersaulted over the wall striking out at the blacksmith, and the town drunk. This blades bit into the two villagers, forcing Ludwig back, but the blacksmith held his ground.

Meanwhile, a arrow from Hallar's bow struck Wilhelm in the back. The thespian staggered out of cover. Skarloc smiled at his good fortune and loosed two arrows into the poor actor.

A scream of rage erupted from Helga Stromm, the shield maiden, when she heard the old actor succumb to the fifth arrow that hit him. She unleashed her fury onto the elf in front of her. Her blade cutting into his fair skin.

Brigitte Helm smashed her fists in the back of the the elf, Maeron`s, head. The blows forced the unfortunate warrior onto Tunnelly's waiting hammer.

The noble wardancer twisted and turned but couldn't avoid all of the blows from the angry mob as they pummelled his graceful form.

Dalos Silverhelm 's shot went astray as he saw the downfall of his two kith.

Skarloc 's Rune sword cleaved through the shield maiden's defences, and took her out of the fight.

An arrow streaked across the market square embedding itself in the chest of Ludwig, the town drunk. A look of surprised indignation came across the inebriated man's face as he sank to the ground.

Dalos steadied his aim and hit the unarmed village maiden in the knee, ending any hope of an adventuring career. This blow was too much for the villagers, and they fled abandoning their homes.

Skarloc and his men torched the village, putting an end to human mistreatment of the forest. At least for the moment.

Ah, the mixture of luck and skill.. with enough skill you can just about sometimes over come bad luck and without skill, you need to be very lucky.

Of course, the Elves lost.. I mean, the village was cutting down parts of the forest to make it, and they set fire to the village? that forest is gonna burn ^_^
