The injured bugbear ducks behind a column of natural stone and shouts to the others in Orcish,
Swarm the archers! Missile fire!. Linar begins pulling at the threads of magic, weaving a shimmering spray of brilliant light that burst out across his attackers. The two orcs before him and a third somewhere behind drop to the hard ground, unconscious. The drow deaws his sword as he begins to sway in the defensive forms of the Bladesong.
Orcs begin flooding towards the archers, and the orcs with bows and crossbows begin to take cover behind various stone features of the cavern. Linar rebuffs the attacks of several of the archers and his new melee foes' spears and polearms like the dance of a whirling entertainer.
Far in the back, Fin hears the sounds of combat and moves closer. The Svirfneiblin presses his back to the living rock and calls upon the power of the Smooth-Hands himself to lend the priest the strength of stone. His wiry muscles fill out and harden as his god answers his dedicated follower's prayer. Nocturno draws his own weapon and hustles forward to stand beside the dark elf, only to be met by his own foes as the Orc leader assaults him. The Fighter-Cleric's superior armor prevents the broadsword from catching flesh, but the uninjured bugbear advances; looming menacingly from the second rank. With expert aim the wicked bladed polearm dips under the High-elf's guard and cuts a neat slice in his side.
Bullock advances as well, squeezing himself awkwardly through the narrow portions of the passage to eventually stand beside Katten where there is more room to properly emply his bow. Missile shots fly from both sides and Katten is caught in the shoulder by an arrow.
Her original target down, the Ranger takes aim at the glaive wielding orc who has replaced the pikeman. Her first shot is thrown off by the rapid movements of the melee, but she anticipates the bedlam and sinks the second arrow fletchings-deep in the orc's chest; dropping it instantly.
Blindly, Jordek follows the wall until he reaches Bullock and speaks a prayer to the Wildwanderer, Blessing himself, Katten and Bullock.
[Actions for R2?]
[Since Bullock took more than half his movement to get into position, he will not be able to attack this round. But the rolls already made will be used for next round]
