Vivian narrowed her eyes at the newcomer calling her a elf woman. She heard better maners coming from a orc, and that was saying something. He had informed her of something watching them from another directionand when she looked in its direction her dark vision taking effect, making a lot of it look like a black and white film to her eyes, she indeed did see something. The creature growled as the group was joined by a newcomer and it felt it had spotted it. Its ears heard the man give him away and he cursed and rose up from the sand. The form of a large dog like creature could be seen as the sand poured of it. The creature stood on two legs and howled into the night like a wolf. The signaled the others. Nine more rose up from the sands. The party was completely surrounded. They all carried shields and waraxes. Each one took their waraxe and began to beat against their shields. The sounds were followed by loud cackling or laughter. The sound was similer to that of a Hyena. Then the aparent leader of the group rose up its hand in the air. The Gnoll howled once more and then drew out a greatsword and charged at the party. The other nine gnolls did the same. Vivian knew there were too many and drew out both her hand crossbows as she rose up and took aim. She then let fly two bolts. They hit into the chests of two of the gnolls. They fell face first into the dirt. The bolts didnt kill them out though. The poison that coated the bolts did. Foam gathered at their mouths. She put the crossbows away and drew forth her longswords. Time to show what a drow can do. "Names Vivian by the way. Don't call me elf woman again."
