"Yep! There in here alright." Three confirms with her face all scrunched up, and even freeing up a hand to pinch her nose. "Can hear'm scrabbling. Definitely not one or two I bet! But... where are they." She adds in more nasally voice, squinting along the ones and even up towards the ceiling searching for signs of the creatures.
Once she hears at least some of the others move in to follow, she proceeds on further while hugging the left side(right side on the map) of the cave wall, while circling around the center area searching for any signs of the creatures hidden in the area.
Thistle moves with Three looking for whatever is making the noise Perception 17
Taman stoically watches Three, then Rivon (but only for a moment), Marius, and Thistle as they all move to the cave entrance. He then grabs an agate from one of his pouches, mutters a few words, hen slowly passes his hand over his face, after doing this, he slowly moves forward with the rest of the group and looking around with a better sense of the dark.
Stealth: 3. Perception: 20
Rivon, being used to the shadows is the first to see them. Two Troglodytes, one coming straight at them from the chamber across the chamber, the other heading into the chamber to the north as fast as it can. Three and Thistle see the one coming directly at them. This Troglodyte is a little different than the ones in the main chamber, it's wearing breastplate armor and brandishing a longsword.
You have 1 round to act before Initiative.

Rivon fires his bow from the shadows at the Troglodyte coming towards your group. The arrow pierces it's neck as the Troglodyte gurgles a little bit, then falls backwards to the ground.

Three raised her weapon high, ready to meet the Trog's charge with one of her own! But, she hardly gets out the word "Let's!-" before seeing seeing the creature almost immediately collapse to the ground. "Ah... Oh c'mon! Am I gonna be able to hit anything at this rate?!" She said, before with a huff went looking around for more foes. Which, seeing none (as only Rivon saw the 2nd one), she wanders closer to the center of the room, acting as bait, if albeit with Maul in hand and Ready to strike the first foe to come in range.

Three, ready for a fight, is slightly disappointed by the fact that her only opponent just dropped dead (with an arrow in it's neck) in front of her. she then storms off towards the center of the cavern waiting for another opponent to face. Three is able however to see a couple new passageways.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Durlan runs to Three's side to cover her flank just in case something extra nasty waits inside. He'll also take the Ready action to attack if any monsters enter his 10' range of his glaive.
From the southeast, 3 Troglodytes are rushing to the north. Seeing Three and her companions they get ready for battle and charge as Three takes a swing at the nearest one. Taman and Thistle waiting for one of the creatures to get near them.
Durlan hits the first one rushing in with his glaive (Three please give me your attack, then I'll roll Initiative).

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Three swings and clobbers Troglodyte 1, smacking it in the face with a backhanded swing, knocking it's head to the side as the neck bones snap and pop as it drops to the floor.
Troglodyte 2 rushes up and attacks Three striking with ferocity as it slashes at Three with its longsword twice and then trying to bite her.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
What Three did not evade by often times the narrowest margins, her carapace absorbed with hardly more than a grunt out of the chimera from the discomforting impact of either blade or fangs. She then swiftly takes advantage of any opening as Tom the Maul is brought to bear, bruising flesh and snapping the bone of whatever unfortunately gets caught up in her over the top swings!
Which fortunately for all, she at least kept in the general direction of the Trog's, pulverizing the second one to charge her, before almost gleefully leaping to the next with an overhead swing to smash its head back into its body. It's not until after the frenzy of attacks that she even notices the spiny, scorpion like tail that grew from the initial rush of adrenline, and now swayed protectively over her form.
Bonus Action: Rage(Tail Form).
Action: Strike at Trog(2). Tom - #1 Attack: 12 Damage: 15 non-magical bludgeoning. Tom - #2 Attack: 13 Damage: 15 non-magical bludgeoning. (if 1st attack kills Trog 2, direct 2nd attack to Trog(3).
(Forgot the Stench Save from last time, if still applicable. One sec: 10. Okay, so no changes to the above.)
The charge of the trogs prevented Rivon from hiding back in the shadows, but being his normal calm, cool and collected self, he takes a steady aim at Trog 3 (or 2 if that's the one which is still standing) and uncorks an arrow, center mass.
Steady Aim
As a bonus action, you give yourself advantage on your next attack roll on the current turn. You can use this bonus action only if you haven’t moved during this turn, and after you use the bonus action, your speed is 0 until the end of the current turn.
Sharpshooter Shortbow + Sneak Attack with advantage from steady aim: Attack: 21 Non-magical Piercing Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
Three savagely attacks Troglodyte 2 while a scorpion tail grows out of her back and swings wildly, yet somewhat protectively of Three. Troglodyte 2 drops with the blows, leaving only 1 standing. Thistle attempts to strike Troglodyte 3 as it's still standing, but misses as the Troglodyte falls to the ground with an arrow sticking out of its mouth.
(Combat over, the Trogs are dead)

"Quite well exicuted." Taman says with approval, as he wrinkles his nose in reaction to the unpleasant smell. "Anyone wish to search them for items of interest, or should we just continue onward?"

Taman trails behind at the rear, keeping an eye out, but trying to also keep the more martial of his companions between himself and any enemies.
@Orileo Just noticed this, Durlan is half-elven so he has 60' darkvision too.
