"Strong psychics, excellent tracking skills, advanced armor and weapons. Work best in packs. Coalition engineered them as soldiers, and sent them out in on anti-magic / anti-psychic packs, specifically to take down folks like myself and Dusty here."

Dusty nods, "I've had a scrape with one before..." he glances down at his arm, "If they even nick you, then you lose all of your powers, Vi," Dusty sighs. "So I wouldn't be so keen on diving right at em."

"Unless they have armor, I'd suggest that any help we bring in will be more of a liability than a help. If we're doing this, we should do it now ... Tracks won't last long with all this blowing snow!"

"I somewhat agree," Dusty replies, "We need to keep the wolves at bay. But the kid's right about the dogboy's smarts. They are just as smart as us, some even smarter. The wolves are there to goad in a large force. But if you don't bring a small invasion force, then the wolves will pick us apart. Fido is a smart one... So, I say find the den, scout it out, then make our choice."

Vi looks at Tyran," then I suggest we get to moving on him. Sense he appears to command this pack of wolves ."
Vi looks at dusty ," dog boys can permanently strip any powers ??

"How many wolves has he got left?" Tyran asks.

Vi seems eager, "Then I suggest we get to moving on him since he appears to command this pack of wolves," then addresses Dusty, "Can dog boys permanently strip any powers?"

"Not sure," he shrugs, "The one that I fought made it a less than even fight. If I hadn't had my trusty knives, he would have killed me."

"That's wise. We need to find the den and then plan the attack before he gets a jump on us," Megana sternly dictates as she prepares to move, gun still at the ready.

"How many wolves has he got left?" Tyran asks.

Adam shrugs, "Well, at minimum, a dozen. But his full force was around four dozen. They seem to attack one person to ensure a kill. They usually pick out the weakest or dumbest. So don't get caught alone!" He pulls out a stone axe as Payton and Ant produce spears.

Dusty shakes his head, "Yep, and if this human mutt is ex coalition, and still has his gear, then he's going to shred us! We ready?"

Trevor checks his clip, making sure it's full, then nods.

For once, Payton has no joke.

Vi starts to check her gear and tries to listen to the surroundings.

"You guys stick together, so as to not get picked off by groups of wolves ... But not so close together that he can take you all out with a single grenade or explosion," Tyran advises. Once we've got any sign of then, I'm going to disappear again ... Hopefully I'll be able to get close enough for a surprise attack while he's observing the rest of you at more of a distance."

He turns to Dusty. "What's that you mentioned about losing powers? Does that apply to just psychics, or more?"

He pounders the response for just a moment, then sets off. "Okay then, let's go!"


Heading back to the previous clearing, his senses on high alert, he plans on heading back to where the arrow had come from; then tracking from there. Opening himself to the environment, he begins drawing on the ambient energies around him in preparation.

OOC: any nearby ley lines or Nexus points, if this goes south and Tyran needs an escape route?

"It was a decently sized pack from what i remeber not large nor small."Megana spoke out tryingnto remeber

Vi speaks up, "If their den is like a cave, then Megana or Dusty, can you do your voodoo stuff? Just to see what we got to deal with. I can do what I do and ensure a good part of them won't be a problem. In case any get past us, you guys can handle them? Or just throw a lightning bolt my way?" Vi starts to check her gear and tries to listen to the surroundings.

Fighting can still be heard somewhere through the whiteness, towards the northwest.

"You guys stick together, so as to not get picked off by groups of wolves. But not so close together that he can take you all out with a single grenade or explosion," Tyran advises. Once we've got any sign of them, I'm going to disappear again. Hopefully I'll be able to get close enough for a surprise attack while he's observing the rest of you at more of a distance."

He turns to Dusty, "What's that you mentioned about losing powers? Does that apply to just psychics, or more?"

Dusty's face flashes realization as he absorbs the question, "Finger wigglers, those faerie tail creatures, monsters and psychics, kid. That's why they have them in their NTSET patrols. Also why they love grenades, knives, arrows and traps. Just one cut..."

"It was a decently sized pack from what I remember not large nor small." Megana tries to remember, realizing that a dozen being medium sized is a matter of perspective.

He pounders the response for just a moment, then sets off. "Okay then, let's go!"

Heading back to the previous clearing, his senses on high alert, he plans on heading back to where the arrow had come from; then tracking from there. Opening himself to the environment, he begins drawing on the ambient energies around him in preparation, completely restoring his potential psychic energy reserves.

Trevor flips off his safety as Adam readies his longbow, keeping his tomahawk where he can easily grab it. Ant and Payton ready their spears as they follow.

Eventually, they happen across multiple wolf tracks, nearly obscured by blowing snow, the paw pads have filled in already. Most of the tracks seem to head southwest. The arrow is gone...

OOC: any nearby ley lines or Nexus points, if this goes south and Tyran needs an escape route?

OOC2: In his weeks of scouting with Trevor, Tyran knows that there is one about a mile away (close enough to draw from) and another one about 20 miles away over a big lake.
