In Game:
Felipe follows the group without noticing anything of consequence.
Yaeth as the group moves continues to get flashes from the amulet of true sight around his neck but he is confused by the fact the amulet is showing him generic trees and other things with in the grove as they are passed. Its not till the group considers stopping again that he notices that the flashes of trees all seem to be identical as if something was taking a single copy of what a tree should look like and was imitating it. He thought as the group walked. Yaeth also thinks now and then he can hear something in the woods move but shakes the sounds off attributing it to the sounds of his party as they trail blaze.
Alexander continues to get the odd feeling as if the woods are watching him and the group as they move.
Praos stops suddenly as the group was walking and stairs at a tree. 'something's wrong." The words fall from his lips only a moment before he hears the scream from ahead.
Out of Game:
You can tell the tree in front of you is fake. It's fake! It's a monster! You spot a mimic. A large mimic pretending to be a tree.
In Game:
Izumi is taken aback at the thickness of the woods her attention is set on navigating it rather then the environment around her.
Holly as she jumps from one branch of the tree to another is attacked as one of the large trees she is leaping to and from turns out to be a monster. She gives a scream and the mimic bites down hard on her with bark teeth and splintered fang as branchlike hands hold her tight.
Matt and Haru where talking near the midmost of the group as they all walked and where distracted until the scream from holly shattered the silence of the woods.
Out of Game:
Combat begins! please roll for initiatives as well as post your first actions.
Within the tree dince woods is counted as Difficult Terrain. The small clearings in this area are not.
Difficult Terrain
Difficult terrain hampers movement. Each square of difficult terrain counts as 2 squares of movement. (Each diagonal move into a difficult terrain square counts as 3 squares.) You can't run or charge across difficult terrain.
If you occupy squares with different kinds of terrain, you can move only as fast as the most difficult terrain you occupy will allow.

Felipe Initiative roll result:19 + 1 = 20
Reminder that the strength modifier and the attack bonus produced by your magical weapon only affect your attack rolls.
So when you roll for initiative you only roll 1D20 and add the initiative modifier that is all.
No worry's I know your still learning the game.
Holly, I also I for got to tell you how much damage you took from the mimic. Please take 8 damage.
Yaeth I was lightly confused by why you rolled so many times. I know you get 2 shots a turn but you gave me 7 rolls.
Holly screams as she is bitten and tumbles away quickly to get out of range without being struck again. She stands up next to Matthias and Alexander and slings a stone at the tree and begins muttering about acid flasks and fire to burn the bastard that bit her. "Guys, I'm not sure, but I think I made it mad at me."

19 + 10 = 29 Initiative
15 + 30 (+6 [Dexterity] +4 Ranks +20 Boots) = 45 Tumble
