Out of Character: Just to be clear, Avan wanted to search in the ruins above ground first. Not sure if that was clear or if everybody was in agreement.
The party deliberates a while, then agrees on the order. Bastion and Avan walk side by side in front, followed by the Cleric. Rivoril and Arilynia are next and the jackal brings up the rear.
Avan casts Bull's Strength and Shillelagh as we go in to last 6 minutes and carries a lit torch in his off hand. Rivoril attempts to make no noise as he moves silently (Rolled 24) with rapier drawn. Arilynia has her bow drawn and ready.
Out of Character: Sorry for disagreeing and taking so long, but majority rules. Besides, we're not sure if the jackal will have the room to be in all the battles anyway.
The Jackal may end up making a great scout if he is unable to go into the opening itself or at some point along the way. As an idea to make him useful.
Rivoril, will keep in close proximity to the party, moving into a large room. He suddenly encounters 6 trolls, heading towards the party.
As Rivoril, had already drawn out his rapier, he re-sheathes it. Takes out his short bow, to let off a couple of arrows before they close in to melee.
Specific Action: Rivoril, has already cast mage armor on himself, which grants him AC 19, for 8 hours duration. Which will stop non-corporeal creatures from attacking through his armor. But not so with Trolls.
Therefore, he will, attempt to quickly set off a couple of arrows off before the trolls close in to melee.
Trying to make his moves more silent and deadly, in the process.
Arilynia bow at the ready, shoots at the trolls once she see them coming at the group.
Out of Character: She will be using Point Blank and Rapid Shot. Doing Spot ck as requested.
As Avan spots these enemies, he realises he's in quite a precarious situation. He immediately tries to recall what he knows of trolls and warn his comrades. "Should we hold the cave mouth so they can't all get to us?"
