And with the inspiration, that just hits. It's not exactly a glancing blow, but it doesn't seem to trouble her.
Kobold 2 fires its crossbow again at Alton, as he has the clearest view of the halfling:
Attack: 24 Damage: 7
Alton, you are keeping an eye carefully on the goliath when you feel the bolt pierce your back, and you cannot suppress the cry of pain. Alton is looking badly injured.
Alton moves up to put the goliath between him and Balassar, "I thought goliaths were all about fighting fair; explosives don't seem very fair. I guess you must be an outcast." Alton says to Sken as he casts Bane.
Movement: Just up one square Action: casts the spell Bane on Sken and the two kobolds, DC 14 charisma saving throw.

That's an action, right? If so, then yes, it's fine, and Alton heals back up to full health.
Sken notes Alton coming in behind her, and moves down a little to make flanking harder. The triumph of Xhorhas is inevitable. Surrender now, and embrace the void! She attacks Balassar once again:
Attack: 18 Damage: 4
1 for Bane.
With his shield up, the dragonborn is too fierce a defender, and the goliath's blow is deflected.
The former prisoner takes aim with his crossbow, aiming for Alton:
Attack: 13 Damage: 9 minus 2 for Bane.
19 still hits, and does 5 points of damage; Alton is wounded again, though not quite as badly as before.

Wash moves down 10 ft and not having an uninterrupted line of sight on the kobalds and seeing that Alton looks to be doing OK, he calls down Sacred Flames around the goliath. She needs to make a DC13 Dex save or take 7 radiant damage.

Sken's DEX save: 8
The goliath is still on her feet, and still angry. She snarls in draconic: I do what it takes to win. That's why you'll die, Empire scum! She attacks Balassar again:

Concentration save DC 10: 9 to maintain Bane (sorry, forgot about this)
Alton will shift down five feet to flank Sken with Balassar and fire again at kobold that shot him. "Thanks Wash. We just need to take out the kobolds and we will be good. They are doing more than their boss. C'mon Ol' Betsy, take out that kobold."
Movement: Five feet down Action: Firing crossbow at kobold 2 Attack: 10Damage: 9 Piercing
Yip, squeaks the kobold as the bolt drives into its stomach, and blood starts to gush out. It's still up though.
Furious at Alton's taunt, Sken swings round and smashes her sword straight down towards him:
Attack: 18 Damage: 7
The halfling is too nimble on his feet, and as the blade falls where he was moments ago, he's two feet to the left, looking up.
Little rat. This land is infested with your like. We will cleanse it! she growls.
The former prisoner kobold seems to agree, firing this time at Wash:
Attack: 9 Damage: 6
Right into the neck. Somehow missing anything vital, but Wash is in agony, only just standing.
(OOC: I believe I'm right in saying that Bane would reduce the attack, perhaps to 21, but wouldn't cancel the critical, right? Bane isn't an auto-ward against nat 20s.)
OOC: Use bardic on the attack if needed 2

Round Three

Alton and Wash
Sken Zabriss
Kobold Prisoner
Balassar
Kobold 2
Alton and Wash are up.
Alton moves up to put the goliath between him and Balassar, "I thought goliaths were all about fighting fair; explosives don't seem very fair. I guess you must be an outcast." Alton says to Sken as he casts Bane.
Movement: Just up one square
Action: casts the spell Bane on Sken and the two kobolds, DC 14 charisma saving throw.
Be excellent to each other, and roll for initiative dudes!
Charisma saves:
11 13 18
All fails, as Bane takes effect. Wash is up.
[Let me know whether the followings works or whether it would be considered hijinx:] Wash moves the Mage Hand from Balassar to Alton and uses the Healer's Kit Alton has hanging off his belt, Healer Healing: 7
That's an action, right? If so, then yes, it's fine, and Alton heals back up to full health.
Sken notes Alton coming in behind her, and moves down a little to make flanking harder. The triumph of Xhorhas is inevitable. Surrender now, and embrace the void! She attacks Balassar once again:
Attack: 18 Damage: 4
1 for Bane.
With his shield up, the dragonborn is too fierce a defender, and the goliath's blow is deflected.
The former prisoner takes aim with his crossbow, aiming for Alton:
Attack: 13 Damage: 9 minus 2 for Bane.
19 still hits, and does 5 points of damage; Alton is wounded again, though not quite as badly as before.
Balassar is up.

Blocked from gaining a flanking advantage, Balassar strikes at the goliath with his scimitar:
Attack: 9 Damage: 7
He hits, and slices away a portion of her armour as he cuts into her flesh.
Kobold 2 fires a crossbow bolt at Balassar:
Attack: 7 Damage: 9
It would have killed many people, but the heavily-armoured dragonborn deflects the bolt with a flick of his shield.
Round Four
Alton and Wash
Sken Zabriss
Kobold Prisoner
Balassar
Kobold 2
Alton and Wash are up.
Alton will take aim at the kobold that shot him and fire his crossbow.
Movement: none
Action: Attack the former prisoner Attack: 8 Damage: 11 Piercing
Be excellent to each other, and roll for initiative dudes!
That does not connect, I'm afraid. The bolt slams into a large heavy-looking door in the opposite wall.
Wash is up.
Wash moves down 10 ft and not having an uninterrupted line of sight on the kobalds and seeing that Alton looks to be doing OK, he calls down Sacred Flames around the goliath. She needs to make a DC13 Dex save or take 7 radiant damage.
Sken's DEX save: 8
The goliath is still on her feet, and still angry. She snarls in draconic: I do what it takes to win. That's why you'll die, Empire scum! She attacks Balassar again:
Attack: 24 Damage: 8 (minus 4 for Bane)
Again, the luck is not with her, and her longsword clatters noisily against Balassar's armour.
The former kobold prisoner squeals: Yeah, die, dragon traitor! and shoots at Balassar:
Attack: 13 Damage: 7 (minus 1 for Bane)
The kobold curses in draconic as the bolt flies off into the waterfall.
Balassar is up.
Balassar just looks at the former Kobold "You'll make a good snack." with that he takes a 5 ft step in front of Sken and swings his blade.
OOC:
Movement: 5 ft step to put Sken between him and the Kobold.
Attack: Attack: 18 Damage: 10
Sken's in trouble. That was a bad hit and took her into dangerous territory. Her eyes grow wild, and she begins looking from side to side.

Kobold 2 shoots at Alton:
Attack: 7 Damage: 7
I think that takes Alton down to one hit point?
Round Five
Alton and Wash
Sken Zabriss
Kobold Prisoner
Balassar
Kobold 2
Alton and Wash are up.
Wash moves up to Alton and casts Cure Wounds, healing Alton 4
Wash says, "I hope we finish these creatures off soon, I don't have much more left in the way of healing that I can do".
The battle is taking its toll on all of you, but Alton is back to a decent condition, and ready to act.
Alton is up.

Concentration save DC 10: 9 to maintain Bane (sorry, forgot about this)
Alton will shift down five feet to flank Sken with Balassar and fire again at kobold that shot him. "Thanks Wash. We just need to take out the kobolds and we will be good. They are doing more than their boss. C'mon Ol' Betsy, take out that kobold."
Movement: Five feet down
Action: Firing crossbow at kobold 2 Attack: 10 Damage: 9 Piercing
Be excellent to each other, and roll for initiative dudes!
Yip, squeaks the kobold as the bolt drives into its stomach, and blood starts to gush out. It's still up though.
Furious at Alton's taunt, Sken swings round and smashes her sword straight down towards him:
Attack: 18 Damage: 7
The halfling is too nimble on his feet, and as the blade falls where he was moments ago, he's two feet to the left, looking up.

(OOC: I believe I'm right in saying that Bane would reduce the attack, perhaps to 21, but wouldn't cancel the critical, right? Bane isn't an auto-ward against nat 20s.)
Balassar is up. And with flanking advantage if he attacks Sken - she was too angry at Alton to move up.
