I mean everytime they challenge an enemy they win and take one or two slavers with them (I'm not innocent to this myself either). And it is quite rarely that any one of them dies in the action.
Yes, I've noticed and I admit I am guilty as well.

If it helps, Shae only actually killed two of the four slavers she fought (one was killed by Reagonn, and later another by Khamir). And during her first fight, she got pretty injured from her fall...not to mention, the second slaver she fought (the one Reagonn killed) gave her some nasty bruises. Though I suppose you also count the slaver she killed the night Azhar and Kwell were rescued as a third, but since he died before the battle, I'm not sure if he's part of the number of slavers we decided on...

Anyways, I wanted to see the number of deaths we have on our hands so far, so I reread the RPG, and this is what I got:

Slavers:

2- killed by Beloan
1- killed by Kwell
2- killed by Khamir
1- killed by Adnan
1- killed by Dorran
2- killed by Shae (unless you want to count the one from the other night?)
2- killed by Rog
1- killed by Joshwan
1- killed by Reagonn
1- killed by Aiwendil
1- killed by Johari
1- killed by Carl and Kwell
1- killed by Carl and Dirand
1- killed by Kwell and two men
2- killed by Nasim, Gamal, and Zaki
2- killed by Khamir, Nasim, and Gamal

Total: 22

Of course, I'm sure a few more will die as we conclude the battle...

Ex-Slaves:

1. Tareef
2. Joshwan
3. Erlech
4. Zaki
5. Ayce
6. Darren
7. Korden
8. Syth
9. Reagonn
10. Rowenna
11. pregnant woman

Well...I'm sure plenty more ex-slaves have died and we just never mentioned them. Of course, we won't receive the final tally of the dead until the battle's completely over, but until then, perhaps it is a good idea to start stacking up even more ex-slave deaths.

This weekend, I might write up something between Aedhild and Eirnar. As I mentioned before, I wanted to kill off Aedhild, and I have an interesting idea...

Don't forget all the wounded ones that Athwen is back working on. She has a few that she can't save. Those are pretty much dead, therefore, and should count in the tally.

I think the slaves have a good chance, Nogrod. We out number the slavers, and we have Rog on our side.

I'm having to use a back-up computer this weekend that doesn't have Word so I'm composing and editing in the post box itself. I'll let you know when it's actually finished....hopefully sometime tonight.

That was fun. One slaver off and running in the direction of the orc camp. Two more for Rôg to dispatch.

Orcs - be my guest. The man is yours. Apparently, a man can sometimes run faster than a boar and sometimes not. So we'll see if the fellow gets there in one piece.

I've managed to fill that part of the save that Pio will need to post. Hilde - I still have to work on Lindir. I hope to do that later tonight.

Child,

Are you better yet? Over your flu, I mean? I sincerely hope so...

Thanks Folwren. It's taken a day or two, but I am much better now.

I'm in the midst of writing Rôg's post -- there are 2 slavers on horseback that he'll deal with; that is, he'll take down the horses. The slavers will tumble off. One will break his sword/weapons arm; the other will be somewhat dazed.

Can your character and Shae take care of the 2 men?

I'll do in a lead in for that, if so.....
