Chapter 2.1a: Golden Grain Inn (Orlane at night)
Chase exhales slowly and releases the taut bowstring. The loosed arrow leaps across the Dim Forest and punches into Terry's neck.
Terry the Troglodyte takes 5 damage and falls, gurgling.
Choking from Ted's foul stench, Aanbo attempts to strike back at the malicious monster. At first his attacks are slow and ineffectual, but in the end he is able to kick Ted in the shoulder with a solid blow as the troglodyte is dodging his staff.
Ted takes 4 bludgeoning damage.

Myrtha catches her breath (Myrtha regains 8 HP with Second Wind) and then moves to attack Tommy. The troglodyte is so focused on Theran that it does not see the warrior woman's approach until her sword is biting into its side.
Tommy takes 8 slashing damage.
Theran attacks with his staff and activates his spore cloud, but fails to hit Tommy and the troglodyte withstands the fungal attack (Tommy's CON mod is +2).

Tommy then turns and attacks Myrtha with claws and jaws. Myrtha dodges the claws and shrugs off the troglodyte when its bite fails to pierce her armor.
Ted attacks Aanbo with claws, jaws, and claws again. Aanbo easily dodges the first attack, narrowly escapes the bite, but then is caught by the follow-up slash.
Aanbo takes 4 slashing damage.
Erupting out of the bushes, Trevor attacks Aanbo from the rear with a bite! The jaws sink into his shoulder.
Aanbo takes 5 piercing damage!
The sneaky troglodyte then continues with two slashing claw attacks on the Earthshaker monk.
Shocked by the sudden attack, Aanbo doesn't dodge fast enough, and is hit by both savage attacks!
Aanbo takes 9 slashing damage!

Using that distraction, Aanbo strikes Ted with his staff.
Ted takes 3 bludgeoning damage.
Aanbo then calls upon his years of physical training to disengage and run over to join the others (ducking between Chase and Myrtha).

Chase rushes to get eyes on Aanbo. As soon as he sees that the monk is beset by the other troglodytes, the ranger nocks, draws, and looses an arrow that wings past Ted's head.
Using that distraction, Aanbo strikes Ted with his staff.
Ted takes 3 bludgeoning damage.
Aanbo then calls upon his years of physical training to disengage and run over to join the others (ducking between Chase and Myrtha).

Injured Aanbo has just raced to join the others.
"Get behind me!" Myrtha tells Aanbo and attempts to keep Tommy at bay with her sword, but the monster's scales turn her blade aside.
Never taking his eyes off of the murderous troglodyte Tommy, Theran moves quickly to Aanbo's side. Risking a glance at Aanbo, Theran says "We're going to need you to stay with us" with a smile as he rests a hand on the shoulder of his friend. A surge of nature's bounty coalesces in the druid and rushes into the dwarf.
Theran casts Cure Wounds and Aanbo regains 5 HP.

Only one slash gets past her defenses, however.
Myrtha takes 3 slashing damage.
Troglodyte Ted rushes after Aanbo and finds Theran standing in its way. It slashes at the druid with a claw in passing, and then arrives next to Aanbo to attack with claw and a bite!
Theran takes 3 slashing damage as he is attacked from behind!
Pleased with its ingenuity, troglodyte Trevor ducks behind the rocks to Hide. However, the lichen on the rocks is a different color than its scales, and the monster is easy to spot.

Troglodye Ted takes 7 piercing damage and falls back, dead.
Aanbo is already moving as the troglodyte drops, rolling to the side and springing up to strike Tommy with a solid blow in the head from his quarterstaff.
Troglodyte Tommy takes 9 bludgeoning damage. The monster staggers, sways side to side, and then collapses, dead.

Chase pulls another arrow from the quiver, nocks it, draws, and sights down the shaft at troglodyte Ted, who has moved to almost point blank range. As the monster rears back to strike at Aanbo again, the ranger releases the string, and the arrow leaps from the bow and lodges in Ted's throat.
