You swing at the bush and crack it for 4 dmg breaking it into twigs as it falls DEAD.
(I also want to say that folks can do checks to try to identify creatures. It's possible someone would have heard stories about it or read about it, etc. Depending on the result I'll give you no info, basic info and right up to linking the creature. In this case it would be a nature check)
occ: I would like to thank all of you for allowing me to come along on this journey to see what play by post is all about, unfortunately work and family responsibilities are picking up and I would prefer not to have you guys waiting on me for turns or have someone in the party that does not participate much. Feel free to take over or kill off my character, and best of luck finding those missing shipments!
(That's a bummer, but I appreciate you letting us know. For now if you could keep your character linked until I find a good way for you to exit that'd be great. I'll figure out a way for you and Sinjin to make your way out today)
(Oh, the bushes are all dead now. Tordal got the last one that had thrown itself to the ground. Btw. You guys were in a pretty safe area so I gave you a 10% chance of a random encounter. I rolled a 91 so.... You feel confident the rest of the night will be quiet :)
Ooc: apologies! Been keeping fairly busy here!
Vail confused, and a bit startled gives a heavy right hook to one of the bushes.
atk: 19
dmg: flat 4, 1 + 3str mod
”What the hell are you?!”
being ambushed at night brings back a flash of bad memories.
(No worries)

That's what happens when you wear a helmet your whole life!
My house rules
Sinjin and bushes are up.
The 2 remaining bushes attack. One going after Vail, one after Tauriel. They swipe out with pointy branches.
Vail: Attack: 14 Damage: 5
Tauriel: Attack: 21 Damage: 3

(shouldn't have brought up not getting hit Tauriel hehe:)
One branch swipes past Vail missing him but the other bush hits Tauriel for 3 DMG

Ooc - how many bushes are left?
2

Ooc - okay. It's been 2 days since Sinjin posted, how long do you want to wait for him?
Yeah, crap. I'm going to have to kick him again.
Sinjin will cast magic missle, one at one bush and 2 at the other.
Dmg1: 3
Dmg2: 5

So one bush goes down DEAD in a blow of force but there is one remaining just barely clinking to life, with most of it's branches blown off.

My house rules
The last bush, barely hanging on falls down on the ground over something and tries to curl up to protect it.
That brings us to Tordal
That's what happens when you wear a helmet your whole life!
My house rules
Running towards the last bush... thing, Tordal brings his mace down in an overhead strike
Attack - 15
Damage - 5
Actually now that it's prone you'd have advantage so give me another roll please.

ooc: hell yeah I punched a guy to death! I’ll give the nature check a shot!
natire: 6
Ooc: wow. Nice job vail
Advantage roll - 21
It is embarrassing that I am so inept with this have that I need an advantage roll to hit a bush
Lol. Tordal you do manage to hit the last bush and KILL it. It crumples to a pile of sticks.
Vail you don't recall haering anything about these things

"Come at me bushes!" Tauriel taunts.

Before climbing back into his sleeping save, Tordal dogs though the broken branches to see if the attackers had anything of interest.
