Chapter 5: The Rescue

[jstater]

Grumm, when he gets around to it, will use his pole arm on the trog nearest him.

[Hywaywolf]

Shybolt rushes forward and kills the Trog on the right.

[Sir Bedivere]

Given the narrowness of the corridor, Timorel will switch to his short bow.

If he is presented with a very clear shot at one of the trogs, he'll take it. Otherwise, he'll wait and cover the corridor behind the trogs. If one of them runs, he'll try to take it down. If one to three trog reinforcements appear, he'll let fly into the lead trog. If four or more trog reinforcements appear, he'll let them pile into the corridor and then use Sleep on them.

If he does use his bow, Timorel will yell "Arrow!" as a warning to Grumm and Shybolt.

[Solomoriah]

Shybolt resisted the horrid odor of the troglodytes, rushed forward and stabbed one forcefully in the gut; he could swear he saw fear in it's lizard eyes. Timorel tried to shoot the same one over Shybolt's head, but the stench was too strong for him and he missed.

The troglodytes attacked in unison. The one facing Grumm slashed at him with its claws, while the wounded one facing Shybolt clawed and bit him. Grumm struck back then, hacking at the troglodyte in front of him, but he failed to land the blow.

Grumm took 5 points of damage.
Shybolt took 8 points of damage.
Grumm and Shybolt are faster than the troglodytes, and are unaffected by the stench.
Timorel is slower, and is affected by the stench.
Brother Arven is slower, and is unaffected by the stench.

[jstater]

Grumm will keep attacking.

[Hywaywolf]

In an attempt to not be a liar, Shybolt attacks and kills his trog.

[Nekron99]

Brother Arven is prepared to jump in should one of the others decide to fall back due to wounds or upset tummy.

[Sir Bedivere]

Timorel will stagger backward from the stench to the corner, slipping to the right side of the passage to give Arven room to go by. He'll take any clean shot he can get.

[Nekron99]

Brother Arven lets out a fierce war cry, jumps forward, and commences to show the smelly trogs what holy fury feels like.

[Solomoriah]

In a 10' wide corridor, there really isn't room for Arven, Grumm, and Shybolt to all melee at the same time; Timorel was firing over Shybolt's head. Now, if Brother Arven has a missile weapon, he could employ it.
