Mylene Durza After dropping her longbow in the bushes along the road, Mylene moves up and strikes at the orcs with her hand crossbow. Both bolts fell an orc, #1 and #4 going down.
Silcon calls on his blood rite magic and orc 4 rises to its feet and slashes at orc 7... The dead orc's greataxe bites deep into orc 7's side, leaving the other orc barely standing.
Naivara sends an arrow flashing into the rear-most orc, hitting and leaving an arrow sticking out of its shoulder.
Sylcan Naïlo Moves up to the spot north of redbrand 7 (forest is difficult terrain, so that ends your movement, plus those were all diagonals,which costs double movement for every-other square...) He then sends an arrow in to strike orc 12, the bolt driving into the orc's shoulder.
Kierro Moves up and sends a spray of fire into the orcs. 7... is taken out. 8... is taken out. 10... is injured and barely standing. 9... is injured and barely standing. 11... is injured and barely standing. 13... Dodged much of the blast.
redbrands The redcloaks move in, most going for one of the orcs, some moving into the forest to head around to reach the orcs. The following ones attack... RB7 ... takes out Orc10 rb4... takes out Orc13 rb5 ... takes out Orc11 rb6 ... strikes twice at Orc6 but the orc easily deflects the strikes with its greataxe. rb2 ... takes out Orc9
Vlune The massive bugbear, Vlune, moves in behind one of the redcloaks and, using his impressive reach, strikes twice at the orcs... (reach for him is 15 feet...) He misses orc 14 as the orcs hide armor deflects the glaive strike. Vlune's second strike though leaves a bloody rent in that hide armor.
orc The orcs start by ganging up on individuals, then any unneeded attacks will go to whomever else is close by... Orc16, Orc19, and Orc20 all attack redbrand 4 The first orc is able to leave a shallow cut down the redcloak's side, but he evades the other two blows, deflecting them with his shortsword. Orc17, Orc14, Orc18, and Orc15 all start out attacking redbrand5. The redcloak is hit hard, but she manages to deflect the second and third strikes, but the fourth was just too much and she goes down with a greataxe buried in her chest. The orcs howl in glee as the greataxe is ripped free. Orc6 attacks redbrand2. the redcloak is caught unaware and the axe buries in her side, but she is able to thrust it off and keep to her feet, barely.
Vilana Casts a spell to bolster her health.
Three darts of power then streak from near Vilana and strike one of the orcs. Orc6 is taken out.
higgul Continues smashing his way through the woods. He does a double move and gets up near the orcs this round, but cannot attack.
walter (bardic inspiration x 1) Strikes at Orc15 with his bow, the bolt striking the orc in the throat and taking it down.
Tessa Moves quietly around onto the road behind Walter, his concentration on the orcs keeping him from noticing. She slashes at his legs twice, hitting both times and leaving bloody gashes on each. "Ware the halfling!" Walter calls to everyone as he whirls to face Tessa, stumbling a bit on his injured legs, but still up.
Montru Moves past Kierro with a pat for his bottom, then slashes twice at orc17. Both strikes hit, the final one driving across the orc's throat and sending him down with his lifeblood spilling onto the road.
Latrius Moves in to strike at Tessa, calling to the others as he does so. His strike hits, dealing damage to Tessa. (Tessa takes 13 damage but is still up.)
Brun Steps forward and, with 3 well-placed slashes with his two longswords, takes down 2 more orcs.
Vlar Moves in to stab at another of the orcs, but howls in rage as the orc is able to dodge the strike.

Mylene's youthful and delicate features twist from basking in ecstasy to fury. "Treachery! What madness is this? You're in league with these orcs, halfling? Or just completely insane?"

Honor
Honor moves forward about 20 feet, then curses. There are too many people between her and the orcs for her to get into melee. She sets the longsword she just retrieved at her hip, and instead throws her dagger at Orc 20. Attack: 21 Damage: 10

OOC: That's still a lot of damage for a dagger, smite or no smite. I assume a magic dagger to get damage to 10? Would we notice the magic dagger as obviously enchanted, or would it appear mundane? In the chaos of battle Mylene is trying to keep tabs on all that's going on. As Honor is aiding against the Orcs Mylene would want to make sure Honor reclaims her own enchanted equipment at the end of the battle.
(It's not magic - dagger is finesse, so that lets me use STR, and I have the Dueling fighting style, which adds +2 if only wielding 1 melee weapon, and the Honor has the shield in one hand and had the dagger in the other. Though if DDenn wanted to say it doesn't apply for thrown attacks with a melee weapon, just like Divine Smites don't, I could live with that. But either way, no magic, you'd probably just see that the dagger embeds itself *really far* into the orc.)

OOC: Got it, I did not account for dueling style being added to a thrown weapon, and assumed a magic dagger - I just figured with all the chaos of a confusing melee and a halfling shanking one of our allied forces, if someone's tossing around a +3 Dagger, she should keep tabs on it! That makes sense, though. Now that this turn is wrapping up, got to see about keeping some of our people alive.

(Doesn’t she also have resistance to the damage?)

OOC: I kind of assumed we do full damage to one another, regardless of whether the weapon we used is magic otherwise, due to our shared properties.
No, you are correct, Tessa would only take half damage, so 7.
(Now here’s a question I hadn’t thought of before—is hunter’s mark damage magical since it comes from a spell?)

can you split out the mark damage vs the weapon damage for me? I cannot access the rolls directly. Mark damage is magical, weapon damage is not.
