1) Avoiding getting lost:
Mori'an, Syntax, Zilmora, Astrid, and Lyric all appeared to get lost as well. As a result, they suffer a -2 modifier to searching the forest for the children. Astrid was the worst with a modified 0.
Azmyra, Wolfrik, the Professor, Tsavani, and Gareth don't get lost.
Thudak and Faris were completely at home in the woods and gained a +2 modifier to searching the forest for the children. Both sported rolls/modifiers of 20.

2) Search the forest:
Mori'an, Syntax, Zilmora all continue to struggle. They find no clues of the children...of anything really. About to give up, they stumble across a footprint the size of a child.
Azmyra, Astrid, Faris, Tsavani, and Gareth find a gold coin near a child's footprint. +1 gold for each of them.
Thudak, Wolfrik, Lyric, and the Professor all find that gold coin near the child's footprint, but also find larger animal footprints that appear to be from large wolves. They are a little more alert and ready for tomorrow and gain a +2 defense.

Syntax has an ability of Tinkerer, which allows it to spend 1 gold to add +1 to any D20 roll (presumably before the roll) for it's stats. I chose to pass on that today. Thudak clearly did well today, while Mori'an, Syntax, and Zilmora certainly suffered.
