Eline, you and Norman put down an Orc warrior each and Tomi gravely injured one. Four more are coming up on you fast. You know Tomi is a rookie in regard to training and experience, but he knows his way around his bow.
Robwin squints across towards the scene… he tries to gauge how far away him, Wolfsong, and TT are from Eline and the first Orcs, and also from the second bunch of Orcs?…
With a dead run and your movement you (Wolfsong, Robwin, and Rinn) can be right on top of the fight or thirty feet north of it if you did not go through the building.
You overtook and outpaced the dwarfs and TT.
Knowing the crumbled walls of the building between the well and the outer wall, you went right through the building to literally jump out into the middle of the fight or running northwest along the building's outerwall turned the corner and are now thirty feet north of it.
Maybe you stopped short to do something.
Let me know.
TT is at a minimum ten feet behind the rest of the party. While you did catch up the dwarfs you did not overtake them. It's still impressive given what you're carrying versus their lighter gear and build.
(( We describe our action, bonus action, and roll our attack and hit points in one then modify the story as we go. As you saw in previous posts. Any questions, feel free to ask. ))
Robwin, You see two Daraktan and a humanoid fall as your companions run toward the skirmish at the outer wall. One warrior in heavy armor and a light green sash style cloak who had just cut down a charging warrior made a swing at a smaller oncoming enemy, missing completely. What do you do?
Robwin sees the fight and continues to move forward to within about 35ft of the nearest fighters.
((OOC: Is it immediately obvious who the goodies and baddies are here?! Or is it all just fighting? Are the Dwarfs we met out here when we first arrived still around, and nearby, or involved with the fighting?))
If the dwarfs we already met are around, Robwin will ask / call out, “What’s going on?!… Who needs our assistance here?”.
Otherwise he’ll simply call out to everyone, “What is the meaning of this?! This mine is under our protection!!…”.
He will ready an action to cast fire bolt at the nearest enemy, when it’s clear who the enemies are.
(( The two dwarfs you had met before, Dazlyn Grayshard and Norbus Ironrune, were running toward the conflict and calling you to aid. You passed them up on the run. ))
Hearing Robwin’s questions, Ironrune responds, "Bloody Hells! They're Bloody Orcs!" It's clear who he believes the enemy is.
Norman plunges his blade into another oncoming attacker while Tomi looses another shot from his shortbow. (( N. To Hit 17 damage 7; T. To Hit 13 damage 4; ))
Wolfsong will keep charging forward towards the nearest orc, letting loose an animalist roar as he calls forth the wild nature within him entering into his bestial rage causing the nails on his hands to grown into sharpened claws.
Initiative:
Eline: 14; Robwin: 13; Lia & NPCs Wagon: 9; Rinn: 8; NPCs Dwarves: 7; Wolfsong: 5; TT: 4; NPC Daraktan/Orc: 3

What are you doing?

Rinn's Initiative: 8
Rinn would stop short, readying his longbow with an arrow as they moved up.
(( Yes, exactly. Eline's up, top of the round. ))
((Okay, here goes!))
Eline comes down with a vicious downward strike with her ax onto the top of the helm of the very orc she'd been attacking before.

That’s enough for Robwin! He fires at the nearest Orc…
((But I suspect an 11 misses though?))

Norman plunges his blade into another oncoming attacker while Tomi looses another shot from his shortbow. (( N. To Hit 17 damage 7; T. To Hit 13 damage 4; ))
Tomi's shot takes down the Orc he wounded previously.
Norman draws back his weapon using his shield for leverage to pull free of his enemy's guts.
(( What's Rinn doing? ))
The dwarfs are double timing to get to the fight.
(( Wolfsong, TT, your actions? ))
Wolfsong will keep charging forward towards the nearest orc, letting loose an animalist roar as he calls forth the wild nature within him entering into his bestial rage causing the nails on his hands to grown into sharpened claws.
Rinn draws his readied bow and fires at one of the orcs that is already engaged.
Longbow Attack: 19 Damage: 9
Sneak Attack if applicable: 7
He then scampers up one of the ruined buildings nearby if he can see a good footing to gain some elevation.
As Rinn takes down another Orc, more are coming.
Wolfsong bursts into the Melee. (( Make your attacks. ))
((Cool I was not sure if Wolfsong would be in melee))
Wolfsong goes to strike the orc with his claws slashing at its chest.
Claw Attack 1: 6 Damage: 5
Claw Attack 2: 20 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
