"Wat'eva ya say, boss! We're on it!" Beedo replied, recovering rather fast from the surprise. He dashes a little ways along the cliff wall before attempt to scale it as nimbly as a mountain goat. If he can reach the top well enough, he does away with the usual surprise and boldly fires at the hill giant's face, hoping -- if perhaps foolishly in hindsight -- to catch its attention.
With the exception of D.O.R.K. and Lukian the party dismounts from Golemogote who despite Toruun firing a musket right next to, D.O.R.K. manages to keep under control. Beedo manages to scramble up the steep slope (OOC it is not a cliff but rather a steep slope that requires hands and feet to climb not an acrobatics check). Ebonitus joins the two goblins on top of the cliff.
Hungryfella picks up a rock and lobs it at (1 - Beedo, 2 - Devin, 3 - D.O.R.K. 4 - Ebonitus, 5 - Golemogote, 6 - Lukian, 7 - Toruun, 8 - Vark) [7 - Toruun] {Attack: 24 Damage: 23}
Unta (Bugbear #3) closes on Devin and swings his morningstar at the cleric {Attack: 22 Damage: 14).
Gotcha (Ogre #2) stomps down the path but is unable to get past the two remaining Bugbears and Grabba.

Still standing in the howdah and brandishing his glowing sword and emblazoned shield, Lukian entreats Lathandar to bless him with a spiritual extension of his new sword to cut down the infidels. As he finishes his prayer, a slightly larger and more ethereal Dawnbringer materializes within the midst of the bugbears and ogres (N10). It immediately swings at Grabba's back. As the spiritual weapon attacks, Lukian immediately begins speaking again, calling in a strong, loud voice, petitioning Lathander to send his holy light to purify the unbeliever. In response, a light shines down on Finda. Without waiting to see the outcome, the elf climbs down to the ground to stand beside Golem.

Vark hops back up to his feet, and after deliberation, he charges just north of of Beedo's position to throw a javelin right for the Hill Giant next, aiding his fellow goblin in trying to grab the giant's attention. He throws in a few garbled words in giant from listening to D.O.R.K, hoping one to be an insult to further add salt to any wounds.
Vark's Movement: Spend 1/2 to stand, then to 7i.
Vark's Action: Javelin ze Giant! (Short Range, Thrown)Attack: 28 Damage: 15 of non-magical piercing. Plus crit damage(crits 19-20): 6 for 14 total non-magical piercing damage.
(S/N: Forgot to include -2 penalty, but crits a crit.)
D.O.R.K steels herself as much as possible as the construct hands rises to point imperiously at towards the Ogres and giant, marking them as both figuratively and literally as the biggest threats. Then in giantish, some sharp order is barked prior, her holy symbol flaring to life as if issuing some divine edict.
"You will obey the Mother's word, and GROVEL!"
"If are going to insist upon firing off that thing brother, I would recommend you following Beedo's example. So that I may room to maneuver Mr. G." She request.
Action: Cast (3rd level)Grovel upon Hungryfella, Gotcha, and Gutta to Grovel. All three must succeed Wisdom Save(DC 14) or spend their next turn going prone before immediately ending it.
D.O.R.K yells out to the giant and two of the ogres (Gotcha and Gutta) to grovel: Hungryfella DC14 - Wis & 19 rolled meaning he ignores the command Gotcha DC14 - Wis & 4 rolled meaning he falls prone Gutta DC14 - Wis & 15 rolled meaning he ignores the command.
Devin grunts as another blow reigns down on him. He's beginning to wonder if he should have stayed back at a safe distance. Steeling himself he decides to stick with it and he calls to the Lady for aid.
"Lady Mystra, protect me!" he yells as casts Spirit Guardians and a number of blue stars begin to flit around him to a distance of 15 feet. Devin quickly designates his allies and Gol to be unaffected by them.
(Every bad guy but the giant should be in range).
He then continues to his best to keep his against the canyon wall so he doesn't get flanked.

A gazillion blue stars suddenly appear spinning around Devin in series of circles. Unfortunately for Gutta (Ogre #3) he is directly in their path and (Wis save 16 but 10 rolled) means he takes 15 of damage.
He (Gutta) presses up against the two remaining bugbears in an effort to get closer to Devin.

Torunn slings the musket across his shoulder and picks up his maul. He turns back to DORK, "Don't worry Red, that was just a one off. I have a new toy."
He then starts making his way towards the bugbears, whispering a blessing over his maul. Elemental Weapon
He then sends his spectral maul flying into a bugbear.
Toruum sends his Spectral Maul flying at Unta (Bugbear #4) and while it hits knocking the Bugbear backwards a bit it is not sufficient to drop him. Toruun then closes to stand beside Devin.
Grabba (Ogre #1) then attempts to bat away the flying blue stars circling Devin and now Toruun (Wis DC 16 & 4 rolled) meaning that he takes 6 of radiant damage as the stars burn small (very small) holes in his skin.
Enraged by the stars Grabba swings his club - Attack: 16 Damage: 15 - at (1-2 = Devin or 3-4 = Toruun {1} Devin who nimbly steps to one side.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ebonitus, having been observing the battle, casts healing word upon Devin, for 8 HP restored. "My Lady, restore this brave warrior's health so he may continue to defend against the threat of the giants."
And for his bonus action, he brings the spectral hammer down upon the same ogre as his last attack (Ogre #1). Attack: 20 Damage: 8
(@GFC OOC - did my previous attack connect? I see no comment on it. post #2778).

Beedo kept close to the slope with bow in hand and sized up targets. When he finally stops just a little ways northwest of Devin, the goblin tries to line up a shot on nearby bugbear. Yet every attempt to make it perfect either gives time for the wind to blow what little hair he has into his face, or sending a chill up the arm, shaking up the shot. "Erg! Fook'in wind! Oi! Any one of ya go'a pray ta calm w'ateva blow'ards got it out for us?"He called, before eventually abandoning the target to fire upon the Ogre instead.
If it hits, he proclaims out "Got Beedo's the Bold got ya, ya fook'in manger!"Though if it doesn't, he more quietly grumbles to himself. In either case, he proceeds northward to hide among the scant greenery, disappearing from sight.
Beedo's Movement: To 9K.
Beedo's Action: Fire Upon Grabba(Ogre#1). (Short Range)ShortBow - Attack: 22 Damage: 6 non-magical piercing. (Wind Penalty included)

Beedo manages to adjust for the wind successfully and sends an arrow straight at Grabba piercing the Ogre's thick skin.
Hungryfella ignores D.O.R.K.'s command picks up a rock and attempts to lob it at (1 - Beedo, 2 - Devin, 3 - D.O.R.K. 4 - Ebonitus, 5 - Golemogote, 6 - Lukian, 7 - Toruun, 8 - Vark) [8 - Toruun] {Attack: 16 Damage: 27} but as he does so 20 he drops the rock on his foot inflicting 1 of damage.
Unta (Bugbear #4) frantically tries to dodge the whirling blue stars (Wis DC 16 & 18 rolled) and takes 12 as the stars pierce his flesh. Unable to reach Devin or Toruun he scrambles up the cliff and swings his morningstar at Beedo (Attack: 18 Damage: 5)
Gotcha collapse to the ground as commanded by D.O.R.K. To add insult to injury he too is subject to the blue shurikens (Wis DC 16 & 14 rolled) taking 18 of damage.
Lukian slides by Torunn and Devin (to M9) and swings Dawnbringer at Finda. If the bugbear is still up, he then directs his spiritual weapon to also swing at Finda. Otherwise, he directs it to swing at Gutta.
Dawnbringer attack (one-handed) vs. Finda: 10; damage: 12 radiant damage
spiritual weapon attack on Finda or Gutta: 15; damage: 9 force damage
