(Sorry about the wait, folks! The holiday period's been kind of hectic.)
Torfric's initiative: 14
"Well then." Torfric snaps shut a book he'd been perusing, bringing his crossbow to bear. "In the unlikely event that you survive this, I hope you shan't be complaining of mistreatment from the man-folk. A polite nod could have been the sum of this!"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Hey beasts, you'll fight me first!" Fadiyells, holding up his shield and rushing to a position in between both gnolls, as a way to atract their attacks. He also strikes his sword against the gnoll attacking Valen:
Kalhiri holds her shield high to deflect arrows and rushes towards the gnoll with longbow. If she arrives, she aims at their bow hand with her rapier executing a midsection cut that might push the gnoll 5 feet around her and, again, more close to her companions.

Torfric maintains a respectable distance, shuffling sideways to keep his companions out of his line of fire. "I'd say surrender..." he says, slipping another bolt into his crossbow. "...but I'm rather hoping you don't. I do need some fresh materials."
“I’d say those won’t be the last of their kind. We have to be doubly careful with our watch this night.” Kalhiri comments after the last gnoll hit the ground.
Eyeing Pyre-Winder with curiosity, Kalhiri asks puzzled, "Are you digging a grave or hiding evidence from their friends? Apologies, I really can't tell."

(I'm also sorry for slow posting)
Initiative Order:
Pyre-Winder
Gnoll 1
Tofric
Fadi
Valen
Gnoll 2
Kalhiri
The first gnoll catches an arrow in its chest before charging at Valen and wildly swings a spear him.
Attack: 15 Damage: 6
Tofric's turn
Torfric backpedals hastily, aiming a shot at the first gnoll. "Keep him busy there, would you?" he calls to Valen. "There's a good lad."
Attack: 25 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
(Apparently that damage roll didn't work for whatever reason? Rolling 2d8+3 separately for a crit with a light crossbow.)
Damage: 9
The gnoll yelps as Tofric sends a crossbow bolt into its eye. Fadi's turn
"Hey beasts, you'll fight me first!" Fadi yells, holding up his shield and rushing to a position in between both gnolls, as a way to atract their attacks. He also strikes his sword against the gnoll attacking Valen:
Attack: 5 Damage: 7
Valen winces slightly as the spear connects with his chest, then bars his teeth and glowers at the Gnoll in front of him. "Big mistake."
He brings his heavy axe around in an attempt to decaptiate the gnoll.
Attack: 9 Damage: 5
The frist gnoll manages to doge the onslaught of attacks as the second gnoll takes a step back and pulls out a longbow, aiming at Fadi.
Attack: 21 Damage: 2
Kalhiri's turn
Kalhiri holds her shield high to deflect arrows and rushes towards the gnoll with longbow. If she arrives, she aims at their bow hand with her rapier executing a midsection cut that might push the gnoll 5 feet around her and, again, more close to her companions.
Attack: 11 Damage: 11

The gnoll manages to sidestep the attack, you just barley missed. Pyre-Winder's turn
Pyre-Winder clacks his beak and sends another arrow downrange.
Attack: 26 Damage: 12
The first gnoll raises its sword to attack again before being swiftly taken out by Pyre-Winder's arrow. Tofric's turn
Torfric maintains a respectable distance, shuffling sideways to keep his companions out of his line of fire. "I'd say surrender..." he says, slipping another bolt into his crossbow. "...but I'm rather hoping you don't. I do need some fresh materials."
Attack: 21 Damage: 11
The gnoll barks at the lot of you and Tofric sends a bolt at it's open mouth, of it's teeth is knocked out, it snarls at Tofric.
fadi's turn
Fadi holds his ground and tries another swing at the nearest foe
Attack: 19 Damage: 8
Fadi strikes the gnoll with their longsword right in the torso. It dies with one last hideous cackle and falls on the ground. The gnolls are defeated
“I’d say those won’t be the last of their kind. We have to be doubly careful with our watch this night.” Kalhiri comments after the last gnoll hit the ground.

Out of habit Pyre-Winder begins fitting the shovel-head onto his staff and starts digging a shallow grave at the roadside...
