no, but we do lose it all if we get hit by a trick attack.

This is true, which is why the plan includes Halting Vortex specifically to stop that.
Also true, which is why I think we should get rid of all the scrubs (or at least render them disorganized and useless) first before we deal with that person. That'll make fighting a serious foe a lot easier.

they are positioned above us, the mooks are in a tunnel, they are on top of it and there are holes to drop stuff down into the tunnel if we make short work of the mooks the Christian will likely drop something down that hole and it probably gonna use a nasty trick

Plausibly...but Halting Vortex would almost certainly stop that dead, something they would very much not be expecting from someone without a shield. I think that definitely makes the risk worth it.
Like, what are they gonna drop on us? Rocks? Halting Vortex stops that. Thrown weapons? Ditto. Hot oil? Halting Vortex probably works there and even if it doesn't we're, uh, not very flammable.

Sure, but if we jump in to kill the Sergeant we're going way ahead of them, and will likely take the brunt of any fire-related stuff...which is good since our defenses are excellent and we're fire-resistant.

"You stumbled into a treasure like her by mistake?"
So... blatant Fabio expy?
If he's interested in Halla, then Asva is not his kind of girl.
I feel like we ought to have a plan for "go straight for the guy up above", but I don't have the ergs to make one myself. Given that....

I was waiting for someone to get it
Specifically it's the Fabio from his 'Viking' book, to stay in theme.

Not necessarily. Depends on how narrow his type is and whether it's a physical...Asva is Halla's sister (so presumably a similar physical type) and seems assertive enough even if not in a combat-oriented way.

It's pretty clearly not about things like hair color. It's the "is gorgeous, and also a badass".
Incidentally... do we know if Asvir is interested in anyone? She s our older sister, right? How is she doing as far as standard marriageable age?

That's not actually clear. It's possible, but Halla also hits a lot of other buttons so it could be one of those. There's a reason I mentioned 'being assertive' in reference to Asva, for example. Some people are attracted to things like assertiveness, or to competence regardless of field, and would be just as attracted to some non-warriors as they would be to Halla.
She's a little old but not weirdly so from what I was looking at...she's 18 and 'married by 20 at the latest' is the cultural expectation from what I understand. So she could definitely use a spouse but she's not an old maid yet or anything.

In the medieval period, most people married in their mid-to-late twenties.
Now, the Norse aren't most people

Our older sister is Asva. Asvir is the vilage.
I like the idea of having the Halfdans on our side.

this plan seems alright, and is kinda what I was going for. Knock the leaders, scare the chaff, and make out with the maximum l00t.

I think our raid leader is jealous of the storybook romance between our two lovebirds. I know I would be!

Wait is our entire raiding party like 5 guys and halla? Lmao. I wonder if those we raid have people with abilities aswell. Or else I can't imagine why they would consider a couple dozen militia and sergeants to be sufficient protection for settlements near the coast.
Or maybe they're just holding out till their knight arrives?

Our raiding party totals 13 people...7 of us are at the gates here. And yeah, since all Norsemen are cultivators, this makes them very able to raid even places like this whose defenses outnumber us vastly.
Yep! And +3 Hamingja to boot, which is quite the boon going forward.

thee is more than 5 guys, this is one of 3 groups. one at the gate, one at the walls, one at the mayor's house there is like 11-12 of us
It's not like we're a representative tally of the Norse, either. We're specifically a group handpicked by the Jarl after holding trials for who's fit to raid.
