Choose if you wanna make it or not.

I rolled a 4

You hear literally nothing.

I rolled a 5

also nothing.

But then 2 goblins jump out of a nearby bush and attack you all. Here there be Gerblins! They attack Thomas and Pac, Gerblin A hits Thomas but Gerblin B misses Pac and Gerblin A deals 3 damage to Thomas, roll initiative please.

Am I not allowed to do anything until I hear it or can I attack?

Well battles has just started so you wake up obviously, but roll for initiative before you attack.

I rolled an 18

OH OKAY, so we are gonna have to wait for the others but in the meantime I rolled a 14

Okey Dokey

I rolled a 19

Oh boy, you got a very high initiative roll and I bet these Gerblins will die.

Well what are we waiting on. No offense.

Alright, so Pac goes first. Pac, what do you do?

Okay so Pac is going to fire their shortbow at the goblin that attacked Thomas

roll to attack please.

18 

You hit, roll for damage please.
