Loren may attack again with advantage. Sheyla, Unthir and Joshua also may but with disadvantage as the Goblin is trying to retrieve his scimitar on the ground or take another action.
OOC: Sorry I messed things up on my end. Sheyla initiative 19 Takes an action to heal. So, would have used first turn to heal one and then turn to heal the other. I'll wait till the next turn order to do any movement/attack.
Iymbryl managed to avoid the initial onrush of water but his mail weighs him down, and he is unable to climb the rest of the way up the walls of the tunnel. Rushing towards the bridge alongside the other warriors he watches as Loren engages the goblin and Joshua flings fire at him. Feeling too late to assist much in defeating the visible foe, he prepares for the rest of the groups ascension by taking a long rope out of his pack and tying it to his handaxe, attempting to toss it up to the bridge and prepare a way to pull themselves up.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
When Velshir gets a chance, he’ll shoot another arrow at the goblin. If he doesn’t get that chance because the goblin is already dispatched, he’ll try to climb up to join his comrades instead.
shortbow: Attack: 26 Damage: 14
if at disadvantage, other roll to hit: 18
athletics to climb: 6
sorry, I forgot about disadvantage so I edited in a second d20 roll to hit for the disadvantage, and got a manipulated flag. I don’t know why.
wow, every time I edit, the numbers are changing.
making another edit here and the numbers changed again.
Sorry I broke the forum roller somehow. The crit was a legit roll, the disadvantage roll was initially pretty high, I wanna say 18, and the athletics roll was low, I think 8-11, definitely not a 15
Diving in again, Loren wrestles for a moment with the goblin over the rusty scimitar, Loren gradually gaining the upper hand as he pokes the creature in the eyes with his free hand, having dropped the dagger in his headlong dive. Just as they stand and wrestle above the crevice, arm in arm, a burst of flame darts up from below, followed by a dark arrow that lands with a sickly thud in the creature's back. The goblin goes limp and tumbles to the ground below. Loren, shocked for a moment at how close he came to getting skewered by friendly fire, glares at Velshir. "I had him!" He stamps his foot and recovers his knives, tucking them back in place while cocking his ears, trying to hear down either passage for signs of movement.
If any appear, he will look around for any kind of cover and, not seeing any (I presume), he will deftly swing himself over the edge and onto the undercarriage of the bridge itself, lodging himself amongst the crude but sturdy beams.
If the goblin is not killed by the firebolt+arrow combo, Loren will, after having a bit of fun trying to dance with the goblin, stab him in the face. Rolls in spoiler.
Attack: 21 Damage: 5 + 5 sneak attack damage from rolling at advantage.

(You can't add dice after you hit post reply. You have to do ALL of your dice rolls before you post. If you need to edit them or add advantage or disadvantage, just roll it again in another post. You can always edit the text around the rolls so just put something like *Edit: Check Next Post for Advantage* on the one where you forgot. )
(Edit: Also, you can remove the banner for manipulated post if you delete all the rolls in the post. Then you can setup a clean post where it doesn't say potentially manipulated results-if you want.)
(2nd Edit: The post below is correct. You may add content after the first set of dice rolls once you've hit post but you may not add or alter content before that first set once you've hit post.)
You can add dice after you hit post but its very picky. If you edit the post after rolling you can only add below the previously posted stuff. You can't go and add/edit thongs before the dice rolls. Not even fixing a grammatical error that has nothing to do with the roll tags.
So if I rolled here fake roll 12
I can edit and add at the bottom like I've done 7 but can't edit prior to the fake roll. It can be confusing so like Silvercoins said, it may be easier to just post a 2nd time
Thanks everyone, PBP newby here, I added the disadvantage roll in the middle of the other two rolls, which apparently is the no-no. Sorry to ruin the moment.
Velshir tenses with action, observing how everything turns out with the goblin above him, trying to figure out the best way to act next.
The Goblin is now extremely dead and you don't hear anything particular to indicate anything else is coming. The water here has resumed normal flow but is louder as the stream is much steeper in this area. You may be either on the bridge or below as your preference at this time due to ropes and any persistence. This is your current view, plus a very dead Goblin at the right end of the bridge. Less than 10 minutes have elapsed in this area currently.
"Hey guys, I think we should come up here for a bit - that goblin was shouting something, and I think there might be more of his friends up on this level. I think I could take another two or three of them, but not many more at once." Loren grins as he boasts, standing proudly on the bridge, feeding a rope down below.
Iymbryl gathers the rope up in his arms and begins to twirl it almost like a lasso. Warning his companions still down below with him to stand clear of the axe at its end he looses it in one smooth movement up towards the bridge overhead.
Unthir thought about blowing his horn to try and inspire or trick the enemies-then stopped. He thought about the cave, and how sound tended to get louder in such a chamber.
So he did not bard, instead, he followed Velshir & Iymbryl up the rope.
Loren may attack again with advantage. Sheyla, Unthir and Joshua also may but with disadvantage as the Goblin is trying to retrieve his scimitar on the ground or take another action.
Fire Bolt again Attack: 15 Damage: 4
Joshua hurls another Fire-bolt at the Goblin as it reaches out for the scimitar and it yelps in pain taking 4 points of damage.
OOC: Sorry I messed things up on my end. Sheyla initiative 19 Takes an action to heal. So, would have used first turn to heal one and then turn to heal the other. I'll wait till the next turn order to do any movement/attack.

@lymbryl roll another Athletics check to see if you can hook it high enough over the bridge. @Sheyla - you're ok to attack.
Taking heart with his last attack Joshua will take aim and hurl another Fire Bolt

Velshir will climb up, once it's convenient, thanks to Lymbryl's actions.
Sheyla will follow the suggestion and make her way up to the bridge. She will take her time with the rope and go slowly in her injured state.
Unthir thought about blowing his horn to try and inspire or trick the enemies-then stopped. He thought about the cave, and how sound tended to get louder in such a chamber.
So he did not bard, instead, he followed Velshir & Iymbryl up the rope.
Joshua will give climbing the rope a try
Athletics 11
