    Dardek, noting that Edgil's fire spell seemed to have kept the trolls from healing, closes his eyes and concentrates on his ancestral hammer. It's head bursts into flames. He points at the nearest troll, gritting his teeth.

    "You, I shall fell in the name of the sun. You shall have no opponent other than I. So says..."

    He calls upon his god and leaps at the troll, swinging his hammer.

    "PELOR!"

    Out of the corner of your eye, you see the hulking blue-skinned creature appear once more, floating in air, he speaks some unhaerd words and a streak of lightning streaks out at all but Edgil, capturing even one of the trolls in it's crackling electricity.

    Siali, suffering the effects of the cold, jumps into the trees behind her and appears to disappear from sight. Suddenly, a dagger comes flying out from the trees, hitting the troll closest to Edgil in the chest before returning to the trees. The troll grunts, and focuses elsewhere for a second before the same dagger hits him again, this time on the shoulder, and then, just as quickly, returns to the trees.

    Siali shakes off the cold and feels her limbs loosen. I hate trolls she thinks as she cracks her knuckles and plans her next move.

    Move Action: Fleeting Ghost to C16 (Stealth Check (1d20+20=39))
    Standard Action: Twin Strike vs Troll B (1d20+20=29, 1d4+3=7, 1d20+20=27, 1d4+3=6) 13 Damage + Sneak Attack (3d8=21) = 34 Damage to Troll B.

    EDIT: meant to say 34 damage if i successfully hide. if not, its just 13 damage.

    End of turn: Save vs slowed (1d20=20)
    ... would have prefered that 20 on an attack...
    Success! Slowed no more!

    Just fyi, Jack currently has 7 damage resistance, so he would have only taken 7 damage from the lightning attack.

    Also, jack no longer has that +4 to AC.

    "Okay, fire seems to be working well. Let's stay with that," Edgil mutters to himself as he tosses a blastpatch near the troll's feet. "Now, let's see..."

    He rushes through the bushes, coming out behind Siali. From there, he pulls out a vial of orange-red fluid and hurls it at where he last saw the mage. The vial explodes on impact, but most of the flames burn out before reaching the trolls.
    Standard: Place 1 Firepatch in E18.
    Move: D19 to B15.
    Action Point: Alchemist's Fire centered on I16 vs. Troll E, Oni Mage. (1d20+16=20, 1d20+16=18, 3d6=6) Hit!, Miss! Troll E takes 6 fire damage, Oni Mage takes 3 fire damage.

    *If Troll B moves into E18, the Firepatch makes an attack as an immediate reaction:
    Firepatch attack. (1d20+12=28, 2d8=8) Hit! 8 fire damage, and Troll B is immobilized until the beginning of its next turn.
    *Perception vs. DC20 required to detect the blastpatch.
    *As a result of spending an AP, Edgil gains Resist 10 All until the end of his next turn.

    "Don't be fooled. The Ogre is right there!" Jack says and points, seeing through his disguise. He moves around the closest troll, fully expecting it to strike at him for being so rash, and comes up to the fake corpse of the Oni Mage. He swings down at it and brings the blade around to strike at the troll behind him, all in one motion.

    Troll A Stands Back Up, his fatal wound from the Oni Mage having closed over, to racous laughter from the Mage. Was this planned?

    The trolls begin their claw assaults anew.
    1. Troll E Takes it's opportunity attack at Jack: 1d20+13 = 33, 2d6-1 Damage (Because of Damage Resistance) = 9 Damage to Jack, Reducing Jack to 49 HP
    2. 2 Attacks on Aziz, 1 On Jack, 1 on Dardek from the respective nearby Trolls.
    3. Troll A vs. Aziz, 1d20+13 = 30, Hit. 2d6+6 Damage= 17 Damage, Reducing Aziz to 32 HP and Bloodying him.
    4. Troll A activates it's Frenzied Strike Power. When he bloodies an enemy, he may make another claw attack. 1d20+13=19, Miss!
    5. Troll C vs. Aziz, 1d20+13 = 23, Miss!
    6. Troll E vs. Jack, 1d20+13 = 29, Hit. 2d6-1 Damage = 1 Damage, Reducing Jack to 48 HP.

    Spitting blood from his fanged mouth, Aziz roared as loud as he could at his assailants.

    "It'll take more than that to fell Abu-Haji Aziz Al-Murzim, you maggots!"

    With deft action, he cut into one of his foes before dancing away, ducking under the arm of the troll behind him and felling it with a vicious blow to its neck.

    "Howd'ya like that, then?"
    Aziz is bloodied, and like any dragonborn worth his sand, gets a +1 to his attacks.

    Standard Action... BLADE FLURRY!

    vs. Troll E, 1d20+18=37 and damage 2d10+9=17

    this power allows Aziz to shift (he shifts to G14 adjacent to Troll A) and makes a secondary attack

    vs. Troll A, 1d20+18=20 and
    damage 1d20+9=14, which reduces Troll a to 0 HP

    Move Action: shifts back to original square (you're next, Troll E!)

    Minor Action: Rousing Words on Self, Aziz spends two healing surges, which brings him up to 74 hp.

    Raaargh!

    Dardek grits his teeth against his wounds, and tightens his grip on his hammer.

    "In the name of my ancestors, I shall not be felled by such beasts. Greater foes than you have tried and fallen!"

    Siali jumps out from behind the trees she was next to, and darts to another group of trees, again disappearing from sight. The troll nearest to her notices a rock flying from the treeline, but cannot see where it came from. The rock lands at his feet behind him. As he curiously looks down at it, he feels a vicious sharp pain in his throat.

    Siali smiles as the troll falls to its knees and the dagger returns to her hand.

    With a few more quick calculations, Edgil summons another burst of flame between the two standing trolls,
    and both are caught in the blast. "Delightful!" he says, very satisfied with the effects of his spell.

    With a roar, Jack brings his sword in a wide arc, delivering the killing blow to the still smoldering troll. The blade cleaving through the skull of the creature, sending half of its face flying through the air, Jack finds himself reinvigorated by the killing blow, and continues the assault.

    Without fully ending his swing, be bursts into a charge into the next one, his blade striking down hard from above, cleaving flesh and bone.
    Standard: Recuperating Strike on Troll E, power attack: 1d20+19 = 36 Hit! Damage: 1d12+24 = 35 Dead!
    Jack Gains 9 Temporary Hit Points

    Am I flanking here? I was unsure, and added in the bonus to hit anyway, thought it doesn't especially matter.

    Free Action (dropped a foe to 0): Swift Charge on troll C (square I-13, Power Attack, Howling Strike. 1d20+17 = 33 Hit! Damage: 1d12+19 = 25 3d6 = 11 Total Damage is 36. He is bloodied.

    Trolls A, B and E move back to their feet. What dark power is this? Aziz, however, manages to knock one of them immediately back to the ground.

    The Three trolls continue their assault, but none of their claw attacks land.
    Jack and Aziz get opportunity attacks on Troll E as he gets to his feet, I'll make them on your behalf to keep things moving:
    Aziz vs. Troll E 1d20+17=35, Minimum Damage puts Troll E back down, so that's that.

    Troll A vs. Aziz, 1d20+13=17, Miss!
    Troll C vs. Jack, 1d20+13=14, Miss!
    Troll B vs. Dardek, 1d20+13=17, Miss!

    "That's, right, back down again! And this time you'll STAY down, damned beast! C'mon Jack!"

    Aziz and Jack hewed the fallen Troll, sending its head bouncing across the field!
    Damage from opportunity attack: damage (1d10 9=15) puts Troll at -5

    Standard: Coup de Grace on Troll E with Brash Assault

    automatic critical hit: damage (3d6 19=31) puts Troll E at -36

    Brash assault grants Jack a basic attack with combat advantage

    Jack attack and damage (1d20 19=36, 1d12 11=13)

    Troll E is now at -49 hp, which is 1 hp away from horrible irrevocable death.

    ...and it so happens that Jack gets +5 damage to bloodied enemies! -54hp and DEAD TROLL!

    Dardek narrows his eyes as he continues his assault against the troll.

    Wordlessly, he prays to Pelor to revitalize him and his teammates.
    Invigorating Smite on Troll B - 1d20+12 = 28 Hit! Damage 2d10+7 = 23

    Siali continues darting between the trees and throws another dagger, this one further than she usually throws. It seems off balance at first, but it soon finds its mark and leaves the troll farthest away from her wondering where it came from.

    I am going to be at school for about 8 hours, so I figure I'll post my move now, assuming that Edgil doesn't incinerate them both:

    Jack does not care that they keep rising, strike after strike after strike. Only that there is still a target to bring his blade down on.

    With a step foward Jack puts his whole body behind one downward cut on the troll, cutting deep and felling the beast, but leaving Jack vulnerable for a few precious seconds.

    -

    Move action: Shift one square forward to K14.

    Standard action: Avalanche Strike, Power attack, Troll C: 1d20+17 = 20 Hit! Damage: 3d12+26= 45 Down!

    Anyone attacking Jack this turn gets a +4 to hit

    Edgil makes a mental note to look through his spellbook for more fire-based spells the next time he has a few hours to study. After a few seconds of remembering the other books he was hoping to study, then forgetting which ones he had already read, he remembers the nearby troll, recently risen from apparent death.

    "Oh, yes of course," he says as he summons another burst of fire. The troll is consumed, not by much, but just enough to bring it back down to the ground.

    "Has anyone seen that mage?" he says as he looks around, "I think he may be dangerous."
    Standard: Scorching burst centered on E12 vs. Troll A (1d20+14=33, 1d6+9=10) Hit! 10 fire damage. Troll A is down.
    Minor: Perception to locate the Oni Mage. (1d20+10=16) Yeah I'm guessing that's a fail.

    We'll just say that as Troll C was the only one left and he'll likely get OA'd to death upon rising that he is kept down long enough for Edgil to set the body on fire.

    The trolls fallen, several minutes pass scanning the area for the Oni Mage, but he does not return. Just as you begin to feel he may have gone away, your attention is drawn to some frantic rustling in the bushes.

    A battered and disheveled looking Human Man runs out.

    "Gods! Thank the gods you came by. They killed my partner! We were on our way to moonstair when they ambushed us!"

    He looks around. "Did the big blue one get away? Lets not wait for him to return. We must get out of here immediately!"

    "Calm down, man. I'm trying to set fire to what's left of --"

    Aziz nearly dropped his flint as Edgil's magic set the Troll's corpse aflame. It wasn't easy to tell when a Dragonborn wasn't keeping a straight face, but Edgil had known Aziz long enough to tell that he was acting gruff while barely containing laughter.

    "You watch yourself, wizard! If you weren't so damned useful I'd have fed you to those things!"

    He walked over to the panicking human.

    "There is no need for alarm, sir. You're in safe keeping with us. Now tell me... what happened, and why were you on your way to Moonstair?"
    History Check on Moonstair, 1d20+12=15 :/

    Insight Check to get a sense of the dude's frazzlement, 1d20+4=8 and I suppose that's a big No.

    And a little Diplomacy to try and calm him the fuck down, 1d20+14=20

    Nothing Siali thinks to herself as she serches the perimeter for the Troll Mage. That means either he's still here, watching us, or we're going to have to deal with many trolls next time. She let out a sigh of desperation. I'll just have to set them up for Edgil to finish.

    As she walks silently through the trees and bushes, she sees Aziz speaking to an injured human. Could it be the mage, masquerading as a helpless traveller? She steps out next to the human, on the opposite side of Aziz.

    "Who is your friend, Aziz? And how did he escape the fate of his horse?" she asks, pointing to the desecrated horse corpse.
    say that 3 times fast...
    also, i guess ill roll insight as well, but i doubt it will be successfull.

    Your insight reveals! That he's a traveler, a roughed up one, by the look of it.

    "That horse was Derek's. Mine ran off after chucking me into those bushes there. Came to during the fight, but didn't dare show myself. I'm surprised I'm still alive, to be honest."

    "Siali, how many times have I told you not to be so suspicious? Most people are going through their lives like this man, just minding their own business when things like this happen. And besides, there hasn't been a great number of Trolls near Moonstair in a long..."

    Aziz trailed off for a moment. He then looked back at the traveler.

    "My good man, I suggest you take the fastest route away from Moonstair. It's not safe there, nor this place, nor anywhere near it. Not for you or anyone else. Do you understand?"

    "Well... could I go with you?" the man stammered.

    "I'm afraid not."

    "W... why?"

    "Because my friends and I are going to Moonstair."

    "As you know, we have work in Moonstair," said Aziz, patting his rucksack for emphasis, "but at the moment something concerns me more. You see, Moonstair isn't a new city by any means. It was built on the remains of an ancient one, whose ruins remain to this day. A city that was once a part of the Empire of Vandar...

    "An Empire ruled by Trolls."
