Skip would gasp as the ogre busts on to the battlefield. He would quickly lower one of his hands from his crossbow and place it on his spoon. "please help us to defeat this enemy.." he would mutter as he tries to hex the ogre. He would then pull his hand back up to his crossbow and launch a bolt towards the huge ogre.
Attack: 20 Damage: 10 plus 1 from hex
ooc: The urge now has disadvantage against all DeX saving throws..
you will need to move to do this action. you sure get nice rolls with your crossbow
(OOC: yeah, I am going to keep using it until my luck runs out!)
Skip would have scrambled 25 towards the sound of the ogre, working to avoid the orcs before firing his shot, staying low as he moved in the hope that the small chef wouldn't seem like a prime target.
Noa will do a quick two handed spear stab at O10 before turning to deliver a fast turning elbow strike to the back of the orc's neck. If it connects and O10 falls dead, he'll be moving to assist Yessica by flanking to the right of O7. If O10 manages to still be alive, Noa's going to stay put. Either way, Noa's going to be saying something about stopping for a bathroom break in Orcish.
Gotemash - Quick Peter, let's follow this ravine. There's probably a creek at the bottom we can splash in for a few minutes while we follow it to throw off the dogs. Were those Hell Hounds? <shivers> Then we keep going South after a short rest.
You move down Into the ravine dropping completely out of sight of the pursuing orcs. You can hear distant yelps of dogs as they are killed the treeline attackers and curses I Orcish as they move to assault the assualters.. there is a small stream leading into the forest and you find a good place to hole up for a rest there is a large trunk led tree long dead with a sizable hollow space, just big enough for two full grown humans to sit side to side. This forest is dense and dark, good for hiding.

"Someone make sure that pile of muscle and stench doesn't focus on our archers! They won't last a moment if it reaches them!"Kuori shouts to her companions as she strikes out with both shortswords at Orc 8 and Orc 9.
Action/Bonus Action: Attacking with both shortswords. If Orc 8 dies before her second attack, Orc 9 receives the second attack.
Movement: Kuori will move to stand over the corpse of Orc 2, so as to move away from the wall but not invite an attack of opportunity.
As you approach the well, you see a silver ladel laying on the ground next to it. The water ripples for a second and then grows still. Near the base of the well you can see boot prints that must have belonged to Anyll an you watch in amazement as the moss covered ground swallows them right before your eyes until no sign of Anyll is left.
After having rested (short rest) you feel refreshed and rdy to move further south. In Gotemash's extensive traveling as a ranger he knows there is a burned out town, once known as Conyberry a couple hours more south that would be a good place to hole up longer term with some defendable positions. Also, there is is supposed to be a treasure hidden there that would go a long ways in aiding their escape from Blood Eagle. Just as you are preparing to head out, you hear a person Yelp and splashing sound in the woods nearby. You notice an owl circling over what looks to be a sunlit clearing to the south of you.
Skip takes advantage of the orcs focus on other targets and moves north to get a bead on the Ogre casting a hex on the beast. When he sees the giant foe he takes careful aim and sends a crossbow bolt into the Ogres massive back, using the three goblin arrows as a target zone. The ogre turns again to move against the heroes he can see, Goblins 3-5 staying effectively hidden until it's safe to fire again. Perzy'S seeing the orcs double teaming on Kuori quickly looses an arrow which lodges deeply into orc8's side, making it scream in and agony short lived as Kuori's shortsword cleaves his head from his body. Jaeson pulls from his connection to a leviathan and a giant tentacle erupts from the ground behind orc9, bashing down on its skull, just as Kuori's second sword strikes home into its chest. Both orcs drop nearly simultaneously into a heap on the ground at Kuori's feet.
After Noa successfully dodges the attack of orc10, he uses both hands to slash with his spear. Looking for a quick kill, but the orc is no slouch and parries the spear with the handle of his great axe. The orc isnt prepared for the lightning follow up of Noa's elbow to his temple, causing him to see stars for a sec. Orcs are a hardy people and he shakes it off and prepares to take another swing at Noa.
Yessica reeling from the wound administered by orc7 feels a surge of power and healing provided by Tibby. She quickly slashes the orc across the face with her shortsword as Tibby shouts a particularly painful insult at him. the last words this orc heard was
"the spell Animal friendship was the only way your parents could get puppies to play with you!". It was too much for the orc to bear and he passed from this life in shame.
Goblin 1 and 2 in tower2 pop up and quickly asses the situation, they decide to fire on the ogre to make him really mad an then they will hide again ( no need to take chances) they both send their arrows into the thoroughly angry ogre who is now moving back their way.
Goblins 3-5 shout a warning that there is another ogre in route from the south west. They will fire on Ogre 1.
G3 Attack: 24 Damage: 3
G4 Attack: 25 Damage: 9
G5 Attack: 21 Damage: 4
The ogre is beginning to look like a pin cushion and you can see the effect of blood loss on the beast.
Orc10, still smarting from the elbow of Noa, pulls his great axe blade from the ground and tries an upward angled cut hoping to hit Noa from hip to opposite shoulder
Attack: 11 Damage: 11
The ogre is feeling quite woozy and is going to move towards tower 2 to strike at the first person he sees. Dex save 9 as he encounters the hole and dirt mound placed by Bree. The Ogre steps into the hole and falls prone with a great thump.
Ogre2 move towards the north part of the shrine, just coming flush the North west edge and sees his pal fall on is face in the dirt. Orc 5 and 6 cant see a way to get past the bumbling ogre and so stay put in the gate house, not wanting to eat and arrow for no gain.. The orcs still inside the shrine stay put, preparing to repel the assault they know is coming.
A third Ogre comes from south of the building on the east side. Nobody knew this guy was there as he was taking a leak when Noa and the treesym scouted earlier. He is too far to attack.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Skip would move to the north east corner of the building, with one hand on his crossbow and the other resting on his spoon. Seeing the orge fall prone, he would let the crossbow hang by his side as he held it in one hand and would point his spoon towards the hexed and wounded enemy. As he points the spoon towards the prone ogre, he would cast sacred flame. A moment later a flash of radiant energy similar to a bold of lightning would flash down from the sky towards the battered ogre.
(OOC: He should still have disadgantage against dex saves) Dex 13 save or take 5 plus 5

(Sorry - I keep missing posts! Will try to be more vigilant.) (Also - just curious - what kind of forms did we see emerge from the woods - humanoid? Could we tell any more?) (And was the yelp and splashing coming from the direction of the clearing? Or the stream?) (Finally - is it still nighttime? Has the sun begun to rise yet?)
Peter sighs. "Never a moment's rest, my friend," he says to Gotemash. "Shall we see who this new interloper is?" He sighs again.
He peers carefully out of the dead trunk to see if he can discern the source of the yelp, while trying to avoid being spotted by the owl. Perception: 16
On Tibby's next turn he will run to hide behind Skip being freaked out by Jaeson's tendril attack thing. "Skip did you see that? I insulted a guy to death!"

Ok here it goes: the forms that exited the forest to attack were humanoid, but you could not tell what type. The splash and yelp came from the clearing, and the sun has risen, but most of the forest here is dense and little light makes through. The clearing is filled with sunlight. You will have to approach to the edge of the clearing to get a view of what is going on there. You can tell there is a small structure in the center
As quick as the orc tried to retaliate, Noa would dodge just as fast if not even faster. Spinning from the dodged upward swing from the orc, he brandished his spear along with his movement and swiped at the orc's jugular before making a sweeping leg kick in response for attempting to attack him.
"Lay down your weapons or die!" Noa threatened in Orcish.
If O10 dies, Noa will be moving to support Yessica one square down from her. If not, he's staying put.
Skip would jump as Tibby surprised him from behind. "Oh! Hey Tibby!" Skip would reply frantically looking around the battlefield with spoon and crossbow in hand. "That is pretty impressive lad, Sometimes hurting someones feelings is worse than any cut or burn... although.. it sounds like you must have given him a pretty good burn with your words... right?... Burn... like... insult? Did I do that right?" He would add with a wide grin before shaking his head and trying to focus again on the battle.

Daishi advances carefully toward the well. He gestures to his retainers to hang back.

Yes, Pete. These woods do get lively at Sundown, don't they... And that owl bears watching.

It looks to be an ordinary owl. The only thing different from it's normal routine is that it is circling the clearing like its hunting or something
