Features

Passives

passive
  • Masked Outlaws

    As long as the outlaws have their masks on, attempts to identify them are at disadvantage

    Questions
    • What unique feature do you notice about the outlaw?
  • Like the back of my hand

    The bandits have advantage on any rolls to traverse or navigate terrain

Actions

action
  • Giddy 'up!
    Fear 1

    Spend 1 fear to move all outlaws up to very far.

  • Bulletstorm

    Spend 1 fear for two outlaws in the back to fire on 1 PC each

  • Stay back!

    Choose an outlaw to shoot at the feet of a PC's within very close range. The PC must make an appropriate reaction roll to keep the mount from startling. If they fail, the mount is startled and runs far in a different direction. If they fail by 5+, the mount bucks them off.

Reactions

reaction
  • Not so close!

    If a PC on a mount comes within melee range and attacks, the adversary can attempt to kick them off their mount (strength roll vs. an appropriate roll by the PC)

About this environment

Suggested mounted chase countdowns: d20 (15 vs 20)

If the outlaws get down to 0, they get away. If the PCs get down to 0 first, they successfully head off and stop the outlaws from escaping.
