Swiftly transforming into the vicious kobear while he charges towards the ettercap, and no doubt spurned on by Lumen's inspiration, Krackle tears into the creature with his claws, ripping a bloody gash in its side. He then follows with a ferocious bite, tearing at the ettercap's bulbous hide with razor sharp jaws. The creature lets out a horrifying screech as it reels from the devastating, bloody attack.
Vesper's turn.
(Edit: Yes, with the Bless, Kackle would not have needed the bardic inspiration for the second attack to hit. So go ahead and save that for another round.)
Reeling in a mess of rage and blood, the overly hefty ettercap lashes out at the Kracklebear in an, instinctual defensive fury. Adopting an aggressive posture, the creature springs forward with perhaps more agility than it's bulbous nature would indicate as it tries to sink its two sharp spider-like jaws into the brown bear's neck, Attack: 14 Damage: 4, and attempts to swipe at him with a powerful swing of its muscular, clawed arm. Attack: 17 Damage: 5 Fortunately, Krackle barely escapes the venomous jaws, but he does take a painful claw to his left side.
A short distance away, the swarm reaches Lumen, and he suddenly finds his lower limbs covered once again in annoying and slightly unnerving mass of tiny spiders that are crawling all over his legs, digging into every crevice in his armor. He feels the sting of hundreds of tiny bites, but they pain is not enough to do any lasting damage. Attack: 9 Damage: 7.

"Oi! You should know better than ta pick on wildlife when ya got a wild dwarf in front of ya!"Chrys yells at the ettercap as she swings her hammer around forcefully.
While Lumen fidgets about and does a meager job scraping the mass of crawling spiders on his lower body, the battle ensues in full swing against the ettercap. From just a few feet away, he can hear the loud grunts, clangs, thuds and sickening, bone-crushing thwacks of the fight. Between Krackle's relentless and furious attacks he makes in bear form, and the brutal determination with which Chrys wields Due Process, they both draw much blood and deal a considerable amount of injury to the strange, spider humanoid.
Vesper's three arcane missiles slam into the ettercap with another explosion of light and magical energy. The creature reels in furious agony from the attack, having been battered, clawed, bitten and now hit with magical missiles.

Kess is quick with her bow, but in the ensuing mayhem of her two companions in close combat with the creature and the frenzied motion of limbs swinging, heads bobbing, shields bashing, hammer slugging, claws raking and jaws gnashing, it turns out to be a very difficult shot. She uses caution so as not to hit either Krackle or Chrys, and ends up shooting too wide.
The ettercap, clearly fighting for its life, lashes out in desperation and vengeful fury once again at the brown bear who has ripped some of its flesh into bloody shreds. Swinging with a powerful blow of its muscular arm, it tries to swipe at Krackle's face, Attack: 18 Damage: 7 and sink its venomous jaws into the bear's own flesh. Attack: 4 Damage: 7. Once again, the enraged kobear takes a bloody, painful strike to the side, but luckily manages to avoid being bitten and perhaps poisoned.
Meanwhile, the mass of spiders continues crawling all over Lumen's body, moving past his waist and fanning out in all directions over his torso, hundreds of tiny jaws biting into any exposed flesh the find, and causing him an excruciating level of pain. Attack: 10 Damage: 7
Ok, onto Round 3. Everyone else can take their next turn.

Lumen absolutely roars in pain and fury. The biting, which at first had seemed so minor, have taken a grievous toll. He swears in Orcish, something to the effect of asking why insects keep targeting him and trying to kill him, weaving in Dundragon's name a bit. He tries again to scrape the spiders off him with the daggers.
Between Krackle's relentless offensive and the brutal pounding of Chrys's warhammer, the two pummel, bash, bite and rake the large ettercap, wearing down its defenses, until they are able to finish it off and send it to the underworld. The creature lies bloody and broken in front of you, and as your own breathing settles down, you hear your Lumen behind you, screaming, cursing and yelling in frustration and pain as he tries to scrape away the swarm of spiders that's crawling all over him.
His own attacks with the sharp edge and point of the dagger seem to have little effects on the creatures, there are just too many, and it seems as if he's just wasting energy and being worn down himself by the swarm.
Lumen tries to cast prestidigitation on himself to make it seem like he smells and tastes absolutely wretched. So repulsive that spiders -- any living thing, really -- would want to flee in terror to get away.
If this does not work, he looks at Vesper and her flame-y hands with a silent expression that says, "go ahead."
(Running out of ideas on how to repel swarms with garbage rolls!)
As Vesper did before, Kess takes careful aim and casts her arcane fire bolt at her friend, hoping that she doesn't actually burn him instead. Lumen closes his eyes and winces in anticipation, but fortunately, she's able to fry a particularly large clump of spiders that are crawling up the middle of his chest. There are a few left, though, so perhaps Vesper can try the same technique and finish them all off...
