It seems a surprise attack is the best option, you quickly sneak up and give the bandit on the right a good thunk with your foam-padded staff. He grunts in surprise and turns to see you, he sighs and dramatically falls to the ground. The rules of the game state that you must hit someone in armor twice for them to be "dead." Evidently, they had already been trading blows before you arrived. The other two bandits are confused and one spins to face you while the other is suddenly on the back foot facing two Rangers. The bandit looking at you, flashes his best evil smile while staring at your cleavage, "oh, this one is mine" he shouts and swings a padded club at you. You spin away and dart backwards from his swing while thinking all those years of working out sure come in handy today. The bandit and you walk in a slow circle, probing with your weapons, looking for an opening to thunk each other. Finally, the bandit lunges and you duck his attack and catch him in the side with your staff. He groans, and drops his weapon and falls down. You turn around to see that the last bandit is now cornered himself against a tree. Sam the Ranger orders, "yield now and you will be spared." The bandit drops his club and raises his hands.
Sam turns to you and says, "our thanks milady, you arrived just in the nick of time, Cassidy help our friends." The red-head goes over to the fallen Rangers to render assistance, so they can rejoin the game in a wounded state. Meanwhile, Sam the Ranger orders the surrendered bandit to lay down his arms and armor. The bandit sighs and pulls a padded dagger from a sheath on his thigh and pulls his hauberk over his head and places it on the ground. Without his armor, he would be "dead" in only one hit instead of two. Sam helps his fallen Rangers up, "we must get our friends back to camp to heal, and we need to take our prisoner back for interrogation."
The four "dead" bandits get up and start walking back to the starting area. One of them is ribbing the guy that you defeated, "little elf girl got you good Jack." Jack smirks back at you over his shoulder as they walk away, "someone will get her." A shiver crawls up your spine despite the heat.
With the bandits gone, Sam turns to you. "well met, lass, you can handle yourself pretty well" You introduce yourself, "I am Thomasin, I was sent by Boltigar to aid you." Sam grins, and nods. "And aid us you did, you defeated two bandits and you will get a share of the bounty, but we heard the bandits talking before the fight, their leader is still out there. His name is Moktar and we need to catch him to get the full bounty. Funny name, could be an orc or goblin."
You think to yourself, there couldn't be a better way to win the day and gain the respect of the Rangers than if you were to catch up to the bandit leader and beat him. That could be enough to get you a title maybe.
