Seldor, Strife, Lady Susanne, Feng, you each move to your positions and watch as Vappa, slides silent as a shadow into the large cleft in the cliff. What are you doing as you wait?
Vappa, if you're wanting to be stealthy, make a Dexterity (Stealth) check to see how well you do.
"Uhh... I uhhh.. I am a little worried about being alone over here... uhh.... Can I stand over by you Feng?" Strife would whisper towards his companion.
you slink into the cave and the smell of death washes over you. You feel bones scattered about your feet and manage to quietly step over them. It is very dark in the cave and you cannot see anything, but you can hear the breathing of some large creature, echoing from deeper within the cave. In order to continue on quietly, you would need a light source or another way to see in the dark.
with your Passive Perception of 13, you notice a large dark shape gathering itself into a low crouch near Lady Susanne. Moonlight reflects off of two large amber colored eyes that follow her every move.
Lady Susanne,
the hairs on the back of your neck stand up as your innate sense of survival alerts you to impending danger. You turn around and scan the thick jungle vegetation behind you... You see two large, amber colored eyes staring you down from roughly 30ft away.
Feng will look toward Strife and grin. "Sure, you stand by us." He will whisper back as he motions him over. Feng then readies Entangle. Waiting for the monster to reveal itself so he can entangle it.
(OCC: If anyone has an objection to my entanglement, let me know)
you light your torch and see many corpses litter the cave floor around you. They vary in race and state of decay from a rather juicy looking Grung torso to a withered humanoid skeleton covered in strips of leathery skin. Ahead the cave widens and terminates, ending in a medium-sized room. A large Saber-Tooth Tiger naps amid piles of bones. It hasn't noticed you yet.
Seldor, Lady Susanne, Feng, Strife, roll for initiative!
Seldor and Lady Susanne were not surprised by the Saber-Tooth Tiger thanks to their relatively higher Passive Perceptions, so they and the Tiger will have a free turn ahead of Strife and Feng.
Seldor's dagger strikes true, burying itself to the hilt in the large beast's side for 7 points of damage.
The Tiger will burst from the trees and charge toward Lady Susanne, attempting to knock her down with a swipe of its huge paw. It misses as Seldor's dagger slams into its side!
Lady Susanne is up next, then we will go in initiative order.
I've added brown circles to the map to represent the tree trunks for line of sight and cover purposes.
Feng and Strife, you two were surprised by the Tiger so you'll have to wait 'til the initiative order starts before you can take your turn. Shouldn't be long, just waiting for Lady Susanne to take her free turn.
All, roll for initiative please (including Vappa).

GM,
Vappa has a tinderbox and torch. He will use said tinderbox to light the torch to give him vision.
"Susanne, behind you!"
And then he'll toss a dagger at the creature behind her.
