Cahleth leads Targul to a suitable ambush spot just off the road. They hunch down behind some large brambles. Cahleth has his eyes trained on the approaching party. He tries to discern who among them gives the orders (Insight). That will be his primary target, if no such individual stands out, he attacks the one in the middle, hoping to cause the most alarm and disarray.

He fires his first shot, then quickly his second at the man farthest from him (Trusting that Targul will soon intercept the nearest man).

As round 2 comes around, Cahleth fires again at the same two targets. If any of them turn to run, he will try to stick them in the back of the thigh… not killing him, but disabling him for questioning.
Out of Character: Cahleth only has advantage on those attack rolls if he acts before his targets. Advantage on Initiative due to Natural Explorer.

The Shaper of Thoughts says...

Sar'ai puts on the bandit's gear and rips some long pieces of cloth off some of the others' clothes and dips them in the one of the several pools of blood that formed on the ground. She then begins wrapping her head with the pieces of cloth making sure to cover as much exposed skin as possible but leaving just enough room for eye holes. Not knowing the full extent of the equipment this bandit kept, the half-drow will try to keep her hand crossbow concealed somewhere on her person, probably hanging from a strap on her back. She also moves her daggers to more easily accessible places given her new attire.

After some healing from the clerics, Sar'ai and Lia head on, "As we get closer, I will need you to act as if you're helping me because I was 'injured'. If we move at a steady pace, I do not think this would cause alarm."

As the two approach and the northern camp comes into view, Lia's jest amuses Sar'ai, "Indeed. It would appear that these individuals are in much need of a little 'proselytization' from your goddess, wouldn't you agree?" Sar'ai begins to act injured and leans on Lia as she guides them closer to the camp then whispers, "Time to play!"

Out of Character: don't know if a roll is needed at this point for deceiving yet, but I'll roll one just in case my disguise needs just a bit more convincing. And if things go south immediately I too will roll for combat.
Also, Paul, when raging, unless you attack reckless, enemies don't have advantage against you.

The Quiet Shadow says...

Geoffroy gets into position with Cratol, Poljen, and Targul nearby in the underbrush to help take out the two scouts. He had been healed up and ready to go by another cleric a part of the caravan as Lia went on to take care of the guard disguised and work with Sar'ai to free the prisoners.

Though he would not be quite as good when it comes to stealth but as long as he was able to have the scouts come within the range of sixty feet he could call upon a Flaming Sphere to appear behind them if they try to excape the arrows let lose by Cratol. Before doing so he would say, "I will call upon a Flaming Sphere so if they try to flee their path will be blocked."

The guard at the North camp briefly glances at Lia and Sar'ai as they approach. "Oh? Did the sheep fight back for once? I don't suppose they were carrying any drink with them, we're almost out."

The three scouts continue to pick their way through the woods. They do spot the ambush and begin to react, but its far too late.

Cahleth's arrows drive one to the ground and wound another, Poljen takes off the arm of the man in front, and Cratol strikes the wounded man between the eyes, he falls over with a whimper.

Out of Character: They didn't last long.

Lia and Sar'ai. You're about 50' from the guard. How do you want to play it?

The Shaper of Thoughts says...

Sar'ai whispers to Lia, "Just keep moving forward". She then looks up at the guard, acting like it's a stain to do so, "They… ah, they had… a wizard! A fire… fireball took out, ah… nearly everyone! Al… most got… me too." Sar'ai pretends to stumble a bit but has Lia catch her.
"We were… sent back. Sent to, ah… get you… to hel… help bring back… prisoners. Boss said… to get some sha… shackles and rope. Enough for thr… three."

Out of Character: Sar'ai has Elanna tell her if there are any other guards perhaps missed before now that they are so close.
Also, if the guard seems like he's not buying it, she is readying a cantrip.

Elanna is not reporting anything of concern at the moment.

Concern in his voice, the guard looks at the pair and says, "A wizard that creepy bastard Linn could not handle? What the hells kind of traders were they? How bad… Wait, you're not… ?"

The man reaches for his long sword frantically, his chair tips over and he goes sprawling.

Out of Character: The bluff lasted long enough for you to get the jump on him at least. You two are only twenty feet away, he's prone, and you have a chance to act before he gets back up.

The Terror says...

Targul, upset that he didn't get a chance to strike at one of the bandit scouts, says "What a load of dragon dung! I say we attack the southern camp now, while we can still surprise them! Those bandits will taste my blade yet!"

Cratol will check to see if any still live. IF so he will use a knife to cut their shirts to make a strip to bind their hands. He will then search them for any valuables to add to his pile back at the wagons.
