As you enter, a massive form rises to attack you. It looks like a huge bear except for the owl's head, making it instead a freak of nature. Despite your caution, you are surprised at the sudden attack....
Round 1 - Party is surprised.
Having the choice between Rondo and Si'Nat, the creature lunges towards the elf, swiping with both claws and snapping with its beak. Si'Nat, in an amazing display of dexterity, weaves and bobs and manages to avoid all three attacks.
Round 2 - Creature gets initiative.
Still choosing to go after Si'Nat, this time the creature's paws connect and in a sickening <thunk>, tears two huge chucks from Si'Nat. He drops and is out of the fight.
Party's turn...
