Kama replaces the gag around the orc's mouth, and follows the goliath to the cave. He looks back to check of Xora and Gimblyn are in position and ready.

Peering into the mouth of the cave, you can see that the area is fairly open, with the expected orcs inside, the obvious leader is a huge orc with arms as big around as Kama's head, and the ogre sits in the corner, chewing on something that looks like a goblin leg.

Realizing that the cave isn't as deep as he would have liked, Kama shakes his head and makes the abort motion to Stormsong. Time to come up with a different plan.
OOC:
How wide is the cave mouth?

After backing away 60' or so, Stormsong sugggests, "Since they're huddled fairly close together, I can cast a spell from here that will make all but the quickest of them glow violet, making them much easier to hit. When they come out, I can suggest that the ogre walk back to the land he came from because the ogeress' miss him and have lots of food for him to eat. It usually works...After that we concentrate on the chief."
If there are no objections, he'll act.

Kama nods. "Yes, that sounds good. Xora, you and Gimblyn find a better vantage point, but try to stay in cover. Orcs won't hesitate to charge your position even at this distance." The half-orc draws Talon and takes a deep breath, trying to steel himself against some of the scarier aspects of his father's stories. He then approaches the cave entrance to lie in wait for the orcs to emerge.

Gimblyn scurried through the brush to a better location, a more defensive position. He didn't want to be left open after his initial attack.

The orcs leap to their feet as four of their number, including the leader, are shrouded in purple flames. They look around in confusion for a moment before beginning to turn to the outside of the cave.
OOC:
Everyone will get a chance to act before the orcs, Stormsong excluded as he already went :)Oct 19, 2016 10:21 pm

Kama holds his holy symbol and offers a prayer for Tymora's blessing on this battle. He then readies himself, waiting for the leader to emerge and strike.
OOC:
Casting Bless. I forgot to do this earlier so I'm not sure who else is within 30' of me now that I'm at the cave.

I shoot towards the biggest in the group first, and then fire a second arrow at whoever is closest to him.

OOC:
Stormsong, Xora, and Gimblyn will each have Bless, and can add 1d4 to any attack roll or saving throw for the next minute, or until I lose concentration.Last edited October 20, 2016 3:55 pm

Gimblyn fires off a group of magical missiles at the leader of the orcs. They slam into him one after another, but he refuses to fall.

The orcs begin their charge at your group. Two of them make it to Kama and two make it to Stormsong's position (the leader and one other). The ogre climbs to his feet and grabs a large club and begins making his way over to your position.
One of them lands a glancing blow on Kama (7 damage).
The leader and his companion work together excellently, both of them landing a blow on Stormsong (9 and 13 damage).

OOC:
Four of the orcs, including the leader, have reached the front lines, while the other 3 are about ten feet back, rushing to join in the fray. The four in melee have all been affected by Faerie Fire. The ogre is 25 feet away from the combat now, but will probably be there in the next round.Player Turn!

Kama swings at an orc to keep it occupied, hoping to whittle down the number of combatants.
