"Okay. I think I need just a bit longer." He said sitting back down.

"Very well. I'll keep watching over you and we can get going in the afternoon if you're feeling better", Carter said.
......And sure enough, in the mid afternoon... the pain was mostly gone. (OOC: lost the penalty early thanks to resting more.)

"Alright. I'm ready to go." TM said packing up camp and getting on his horse.

"Very well", Carter said, doing the same. "There's an old plantation complex residence a few hours in that direction. Rumor is the place is haunted, so people stay away. The truth is much darker. It is the den of the leech and its servants, and we will strike it before the night comes. What know you of vampires?"

"Where I come from. You gotta expose them to sunlight or stake them through the heart." He said.

"Here, that still works. So does decapitation, fire, and more... holier things I don't have all that much access to. What guns you have?" he asked.

"I got some fire arrows." He admitted. "Not much beyond that."

"That should work", he said, as they kept riding.
Eventually arriving in sight of a sinister-looking, lone mansion, seemingly long abandoned. Or was it?

"Think just setting the place on fire would do the trick?" He asked.

"Probably not enough. Vamps like to dig their hideouts underground", he said, smirking. "But it'd be a hell of a start. Wake the bastards up good."

"Alright." He said firing a fire arrow into the window.
6 in RC +2 from targeting, +2 from Bow, +2 from fire arrow against the building.

He grinned, loading his six shooters with special ammo and shooting several shots in the building's walls. By the two of them, the side of the mansion was soon ablaze!
"...Keep your guard up. They'll have more pets to send out at us", Carter warned. "Here they come!"
Sure enough, four big wolves were running towards them, snarling in unnatural anger.

"Just keep them from getting too close to me." He said. "I'll back you up as best I can." He said throwing his shield to try and bounce it between two of the wolves' skulls.
6 eff in Kung Lao's MoKF +2 from Targeting +4 from shield. split 8/7 between two wolves.
4 in DD's Acrobatics +3 from Billy Club shifted to defense.
H: 4/4 E: 8/18

"I'm on it, son", he said as he moved ahead to draw the wolves to him, filling one with more of his incendiary rounds, much to the beast's dismay. He also had his horse rearing on purpose, which had the beasts backing off wisely to avoid the hooves to the face kind of trouble.
Taskmaster easily exploited the opening to club two of the wolves with his shield, knocking them both out, leaving only one in the fight.

TM then leaned into the final wolf and brought the shield's edge down hard on the wolf's neck.
6 eff in Cap's CC +4 from shield 4 shifed to defense. The rest of the 9 stones vs the Wolf's neck.
