Boldol quickly assesses the situation, grabs his spear and charges the nearest kobold. Unfortunately, he still has some remnants of sleep in his eyes and the kobold is able to evade his thrust.
Boldol's Attack (Spear): [1d20+3] = 4+3 = 7 + 2 = 9

Sanzaru sizes up his opponents and rushes at the nearest kobold pinning it against the wall. Using his axe like a butcher knife it only takes one swipe to sever its head from its body.
Sanzaru's Attack (Battle Axe): [1d20+3] = 18+3 = 21
Sanzaru's Damage (Battle Axe): [1d8+2] = 5+2 = 7


Pebbles quickly leaves his dreamworld behind and looses an arrow at the rear-most kobold (#2). The missile seems to know exactly where it needs to go, bringing a swift end to your opponent.
Pebbles' Attack (Short Bow): [1d20+7] = 9+7 = 16
Pebbles' Damage (Short Bow): [1d6] = 6


The kobold sideswipes Boldol's clumsy thrust and slips under his guard, leaving a long, razor-thin wound on his arm.
Kobold 1 Attack: [1d20] = 19
Kobold 1 Damage (Shortsword): [1d6] = 3


Seeing his comrade fall to an arrow, a kobold at the rear slips a bullet into his sling and sends a projectile speeding back at Pebbles. The slug careens off of Pebbles' shoulder leaving his arm stinging and numb.
Kobold 4 Attack: [1d20] = 16
Kobold 4 Damage (Sling): [1d4] = 1


Mumford swings his quarterstaff at the closest adversary but it swishes harmlessly wide of his target.
Mumford's Attack (Quarterstaff): [1d20+1] = 5+1 = 6

Alena targets the kobold nearest to her with a warhammer but her throw sails over the head of the kobold and clatters against the wall.
Alena's Attack (Warhammer): [1d20+1] = 4+1 = 5

Round 2
Boldol Initiative: [1d6+4] = 3+4 = 7
Sanzaru Initiative: [1d6+1] = 6+1 = 7
Pebbles Initiative: [1d6+4] = 2+4 = 6
Mumford Initiative: [1d6-1] = 4-1 = 3
Alena Initiative: [1d6] = 2
Kobold's Initiative: [1d6] = 2

Indignant at the nerve of the kobold to sling a stone at him, Pebbles decides to fire off an arrow at Mr. Big Shot with a Sling.

Sanzaru will run forwards and try to sandwich a kobald between him and the wall violently, then hew at its neck with his axe.

Having gotten in close range, Boldol will drop his spear and switch over to his dagger and shield, and then he'll plunge his dagger into the kobold that attacked him.

I've edited and updated the previous Round 1 post with Sanzaru's and Mumford's actions.
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1181&start=630#p49265

Pebbles and Boldol have already posted Round 2 actions so if Alena, Mumford, and Sanzaru can post actions I will resolve Round 2 on Sunday. Here's the Round 2 initiative order again for reference.

Round 2
Boldol Initiative: [1d6+4] = 3+4 = 7
Sanzaru Initiative: [1d6+1] = 6+1 = 7
Pebbles Initiative: [1d6+4] = 2+4 = 6
Mumford Initiative: [1d6-1] = 4-1 = 3
Alena Initiative: [1d6] = 2
Kobold's Initiative: [1d6] = 2

Mumford will opportunistically swing at any kobolds that come within range.

Boldol prepares for close combat by dropping his spear and grabbing his dagger and shield. His shield catches on his armour though and throws off the timing of his attack. The kobold easily evades his ill-timed jab.
Boldol's Attack (Dagger): [1d20+3] = 4+3 = 7

The first kobold's head has barely the floor and is still bouncing away as he turns and viciously swings at another kobold. A heavy overhand chop splits the enemy neatly into two halves.
Sanzaru's Attack (Battle Axe): [1d20+3] = 19+3 = 22
Sanzaru's Damage (Battle Axe): [1d8+2] = 4+2 = 6


Shaking off the effects of the previous attack, Pebbles draws his bow again and sends another arrow towards the arrogant kobold. The missile's hurtling flight is interrupted as it buries itself in his foe, snuffing out their life.
Pebbles' Attack (Short Bow): [1d20+7] = 9+7 = 16
Pebbles' Damage (Short Bow): [1d6] = 3


As the last kobold falls you all stop to catch your breath. After looting their bodies you add the kobolds to the pile of goblins. Between the four of them you find a total of 50 cp and 41 sp.

You return to your beds and watches and the rest of the night passes uneventfully.

Pebbles retrieves his arrows if possible, then sleeps the sleep of the innocents. In the morner he studies his spell book and readies sleep once more.

Boldol will take a proper sling off the kobold that shot a bullet earlier, and will gather up any bullets the kobolds had.
