Zaxx quickly urges Mr Skittles to caper in front of the barbarian to get his attention without being stood upon. Mr Skittles performs his best "Look out! Orcs about!" paw-signals.
While still trancing Zaxx will utter "Orcssss" loud enough for Kryinor to hear
Breccha edges forward (about 3 squared) keeping tight against the wall and stopping just before the corner behind Mr. Skittles. Body tense in ambush mode pressed against the wall...
(whispering) "ok lads, lets show these greenskins how to set a proper ambush, you take up firing positions, and I will advance down the left wall. Be ready with bow and wand when they move to attack me"

Kryinor, seeing the passage north becomes quite tight moves himself out of the way so that he will not block the shots of the ranged combatants. He hugs the south wall and stops (OOC at the cross section of 'B' and 'Sk') so that he can see up the north corridor ready to spring into action should any enemies get past Breccha and Kargan. He also keeps one ear focused on sounds to the East incase of an ambush.
Mr Skittles moves quietly back down the passage and stops in front of Breccha.
The Rat gives a small squeak and begins to hop up and down. When the Barbarians eyes fall on him he stands tall on his back legs paws extended into hooked claws and a rather dim witted yet violent look on his face. Then he draws a single claw across his throat and falls down in pantomimed death. A moment later one eye opens and stares at Breccha to make sure he 'got it'.
Every one listens to Kargan's plan, and then moves to a place of readiness.
Zaxx, Titus, and Breccha wait in the small area to the south, spell, bow, and javelin at the ready.
Kryinor's huge shaggy form melding into the stone, a deep growl the only hint of his presence, lies in wait hind legs tensed to pounce.
Then Eedim, reliable as ever, guards the entrance for returning Ocrs or reinforcements.
Kargan moves up the West wall of the passage North. The Dwarf moves forward with heavy confident steps and soon the nervous face of an Orc comes into view in the dim cave light. The creature looks Kargan directly in the eye and sticks out its thick purple tongue...
It then turns and does a runner to the North east pas the banked fire and towards a passage in that part of the cavern.
"No, Kargan! It's a tr-oh, bugger,"cries Zaxx as the dwarf moves further into the caves and Mr Skittles scurries up the mages leg into the safe folds of his robes.
Zaxx grasps the glasstaff in one hand and prepares to move in behind the muscle.
[OOC: Depending on initiative Zaxx will hold his action until the heavies have moved in and then will advance and cast a Fire Bolt at the nearest orc but I'll hold off rolling until we know what's going down].
OOC: Kargan and Titus easily see through the crude ploy to draw them forward. Kargan while aware that some sort of trap is laid is not aware of what it is.
Titus on the other hand can see a small pile of what looks like fire bombs in front of the Goblin with the bow to the Northeast.
He thinks that if they were to advance any further they would be in range and the trap would be sprung.
The Greenskins continue to hold and taunt trying to draw you all further in.

Have a care my altitude challenged comrade. It appears they have prepared a bbq reception for us. Hold station while I see if we can’t turn the tables and roast some grobbi to borrow your vernacular.
ooc if the fire bombs are charged Titus will fire an arrow into them setting them off at his feet, if not he will lob one of his molotovs at them.
Titus releases the arrow. It flies straight and true hitting the primed firebomb and igniting it. There is a WHOOSH! as the flames engulf the Orc and its Goblin comrade.
The both cry out in pain and begin to move away from the fire and slap themselves trying to put the flames out.
The flames begin to spread around on the cavern floor.

Kryinor stands and starts to pad forward, a low rumble emanating from his chest. The glint in his eyes hard once again.
Breccha edges forward (about 3 squared) keeping tight against the wall and stopping just before the corner behind Mr. Skittles. Body tense in ambush mode pressed against the wall...
(whispering)
"ok lads, lets show these greenskins how to set a proper ambush, you take up firing positions, and I will advance down the left wall. Be ready with bow and wand when they move to attack me"
Ooc don on the west wall opposite where you skittles.
Titus advances to his position bow ready eager to see what mischief the dwarve can produce.

"Ach, come back here an' do that, I dare ye lilly livered, scabby arsed, snuff snortin', washoon!!"

Breccha realising any suprise has been blown, allows his rage to build as he prepares to charge in...
Emotions check : 5 to pass
Fail : rush in
Pass: keep his wits and hold his position

Kryinor's muscles tense but he does not move he sits and waits watching infront and listening for behind.

Well we’ll chaps it appears any chance of the drop on these fellows is past. Let’s have at em I say!
Titus then moves up to kargans position he just vacated bow ready.
Kargan advances cautiously forward suspecting green skin trickery.
Titus backs him up bow at the ready.
Zaxx, his warning unheeded, readies his spells for the coming battle. Many contingencies flying through his mind.
Breccha works himself once again up to a murderous rage , muscles tensing, face reddening, a coiled spring ready for release.
Kryinor still inhabiting the from of a huge shaggy wolf also tenses, perhaps a momentary internal struggle conquered.
Eedim gives a heavy sigh, "Dorfs..." and moves further to the West to open up avenues of fire to the East and North.
The Orc moves a bit farther into the Northeast passage and gains some small amount of cover. It raises a javelin for a throw at the advancing Dwarf.
Next to it a goblin hides on the other side of the pillar, a short bow readied arrow knocked.
The Orc gives an obscene leer at Kargan and hollers, "Come and get me you stunty bastard!"
OOC: could Kargan and Titus make another perception check, and a sense motive please :)
Then an initiative roll from Kargan :)

sense motive 17
