Bugs sighs, "this is a bad idea..." he mutters. He then points the trident at the one directly infront of him and takes off running. As he runs he whips out a dart at the creature. He jogs a few more steps, jumps into the air and stabs out with Wave.
Bonus Action: cast hunters mark on B1
Move action: move 30 feet, draw dart
Action: attack with dart, attack with Trident
Dart sniper attack: 21 + bless 4, damage 18 + 3 for hunter's mark
Trident attack Attack: 17 Damage: 4 + 6 for hunter's mark
Thinking maybe bless isn't in effect yet so skip that roll? if it is, then here is bless for second attack 1
((Bless indeed will be next turn, but Bernard is fine without it))
Dart went deep into the flesh of the big creature, making shriek in pain, however it was the Wave's strike that finished the monster. The bugbear (it was definitely the bugbear) dropped down and the trident made a victory howl in Bernard's head, but the sound was cut shot - the third opponent, promised by Keraptis reviled himself. An armored corpse stepped out from the entrance to the small well-room and swung the rasty sword at the ranger:
Attack: 13 Damage: 6
The sword missed and by much, but the other bugbear - still alive - was already attacking too:
Attack: 13 Damage: 9
Alyssa's Blessing lighted Bernard's shape for a moment, but the group could only hope he was still Ok there, fighting two enemies at once.
(Ramious can reach both enemies, Leon - only the armored corpse)

The hiss of steel being drawn filled the hall as Leon unsheathed the greatsword across his back. Striding forward he swung the large blade at the armored figure...
The blade went through the rotting corpse leaving a gaping wound in the body, but the undead was not destroyed, it still moved. The corpse turned moving its attention to the new attacker.
The undead did not get a chance to strike again, it dropped down under Ramious's blade. The second bugbear just watched, surprisingly, not trying to escape - something any normal bugbear would do on its place.
Concentration: Bless Active on All = +1d4 on Attacks (Friendly reminder. Not that you guys needed the help during the round it was active ;) )
Alyssa keeps her range. With the other's striking with incredible accuracy, she'd continue to preserve her stronger magic for now. So, with a flick of he wrist, she'd fire off a pot shot towards the standing bugbear.

Fire bolt from Alyssa did not kill creature out right but left a huge scorch mark and filled the corridor with the smell of burning flesh. May be chaotic movements of burning monster, or may be the bulky form of the weapon (Wave was nothing like the light short sword Bernard was used to) but both ranger's attacks missed. "Pff!" With an undertone of the ocean breeze it sounded like the wind in Bernards head, but still disapproving.
The bugbear tried to make Bugs pay for the pain he endured:
Attack: 17 Damage: 13
but with the wounded monster could not hit the wall in his conditions.
Leon and Ramious now had the chance to put the creature out of its misery.
Burning remains scattered around the passage - the battle was over.
"Too fast! Way too fast. Needs some adjustments, I see." The familiar voice sounded not disappointing but more analytical, as if the observer was calculating the outcome and thinking about further tweaking some parameters. "You may proceed."
"Bugs, would you mind me taking a look at that trident?" Leon says as he steps over. "Unless you are attached to it that is, I likely can at least be more accurate with my strike with the thing..."
With the combat done Bugs steps aside. He holds up Wave and says, "Wave, I'm sorry but I don't think this is going to work out. I'm not the in your face warrior that you are looking for. Let's not kid ourselves into think this will work out. There are plenty of fish in the sea. One of which may be right here," he says gesturing to Leon. "Don't feel bad, it's me, not you."
"I could tell this from the start!"Bellowed wind in Bernard's head, unheard by others around. "I am meant for the mighty hand of a true warrior! A servant of the sea God!" Wave could not really move on it's own and probably finished his speech already in the head of Leon. "You! The one who is willing to abandon his trice inferior weapon - I saw what you can do in the fight. I am willing to give you a chance to abandon your inferior gods as well and accept the guidance and help of Poseidon!"
"I do not know much of this Poseidon you speak of, but, if he is a god of warriors I have no problem following him." Leon says out loud to the trident. "You will have to tell me about him, when we can spare some time for that sort of thing. For now though, we are in the middle of a mad mage's dungeon, and have two more weapons to find." He holds the trident in his hand as he nods to Ramious. "We ready to continue back towards the cat-thing?"
Bugs stands back a moment and stares at Leon's back. He's a mixture of emotions, relief, regret, anxiety. Over all he's not sure if he dodged a bullet or passed on a bunch of emotional baggage to Leon. He can only open that Wave doesn't force a negative change on his friend. Shaking his head, he snaps out of it and grabs his bow.
Turning to Alyssa he stops a momebt seeing that she had dropped the A illusion and then shrugs. "Did I tell you that my new bow talks too?" He holds up his magical bow to show her. "He's kind of hard to understand... what with his accent an all." He pulls the string tight and lets it go releasing a taunt humming sound. "You hear that? It's a thing souther twang." Then he grins a silly grin and keeps walking chuckling at his own joke.
Ramious shakes his head as the events unfold, then he speaks up, looking a bit grumpy, "Maybe now you'all understand how tough it is to deal with powerful influencin magic weapons. I heard nothin but grief about me and the axe, and how it got a hold a me....you guys just never givin me a break...and constantly on me....Ramious....man up...it's just a axe....why do ya keep losin yer mind to an axe....well..ha...maybe now ya understand its not so easy? Don't ya? Ya...that's right..." (No one recalls giving Ramious a hard time about it, but you also don't get the sense that he's being all that serious about his complaints.)
Grumbling to himself, but not really so much, and with a bit of a grin at the edge of his lips, he follows Bernard back to the cat and the three ways. When they get there he swings to his left (so, right passage from the map view) without a word and walks that way, "Bugs...if ya gunna lead.....you gotta be decisive...you know...just....go with yer gut....and just make the hard decision....left..right...straight..left...up...down...whatever........if you really want to...ya know...be that leader I know ya can be..." he says this all as exaggeratedly condescendingly as possible as he walks, and then winks, standing aside to let Bugs walk past him and retake the lead.
Initiative order for now: Bernard B1 Alyssa B2 Leon Ramious
One of the hairy creatures clearly prepared to throw the javelin. But Bernard had a few milliseconds to act before it would happen.

Bugs turns to the last bugbear and just stabs at it twice. No showy moves or anything just two stabs.

Attack: 19 Damage: 4 + 5 for hunters mark, add 1 for bless
