> Tries to help Majuba up onto the ground then muscles his arm on front to stand between the Orc and the waters in front of him, raising his shield up' he nods towards the masked teen then faces forward.
Unwilling to let his friend be a human orcish golian shield all by himself, Dergosh sidled up to edge of the water next to the armor-plated giant.
"Careful, friend. With all that armor on you swim worse than three week dead wugaloo. You fall in you never come up."
Without a fishing pole, net, or even a goblin bomb, Dergosh decided to blast the first skum to show its scaly head.
Heard the tall, skinny Majuba speak about incoming targets. So could crouch down slightly as watched the water. Right near the edge of the water as waited to just kick one of the fish heads in.
Shielding her eyes at the light she turned away as it was dropped and darkness filled the top again. Since everyone was so intent on looking at the water she started keeping watch around them drawing her own blade. After all water was on either side and their was still the noises around them. Last thing they needed was someone attacking from behind with everyone looking down one direction

Excellent thinking. Tigerwolf notices that the indistinguishable noises/voices heard before seem to be drawing slightly nearer and are coming from beyond the veil of vines.
Tigerwolf taps Karoll on the shoulder before she goes to move stealthily to one side of the vines ready to strike should she need to.
Two fishmen surfaced in the swirling underground lake, one right at the shore where Majuba had just climbed out and the other further out in the waters. Dergosh’s unleashed his blast of sound at the first skum as it poked its head out, a blare of noise that echoed around the cenote.
No good, the cleric's blast of sound is muffled by the water and does not affect the fishman.

What is Greez doing with the captured kobold?
Tigerwolf prepares to strike or cleave through any that come through that look like a threat. If they go to attack the group or the like.
> Odak raises his sword and shield while scanning the environment through the eyeholes of his helm.
If the one that is near shore is close enough, would do a swinging kick with a foot to try to clock the fish thing's head.
IC:
Garmack, seeing the shoreline pretty well full, turns his bow in the direction of the hanging vines, ready to help Tigerwolf if necessary.
= hexed the following round, but gets normal actions this round since his initiative > Majuba
> Odak readies his sword in order to attack any hostiles targeting him or his allies. He also will use Saving Shield as an immediate action in the event and adjacent ally is attacked (which would be Greez and Majuba provided they haven't moved from me since this time).
Greez misses with his kicks, his large feet dragging though the water just in front of the skum. A spear lances out from the water in return with Odak trying to interpose his shield.
Meanwhile, the fishman further out in the water fires a pair of small barded javelins at Dergosh who is standing on the other side of the golian (Majuba is behind Odak).
The spear slips past Odak's shield to strike Greez in the thigh.
The cleric easily ducks the flying javelins, inciting him to bellow out a laugh. "Puffer fish's barbs not so sharp. HA!"
Tigerwolf hears footsteps approaching and know in the next instant something will be passing through the vines, a target for her waiting sword.
> Odak attempted to help shield his burly Orc ally only to be thwarted by the fishman's spear. The golian grunts as he lifts his heavy longsword up and attempts to attack the Skum that stabbed Greez. He swings his sword down on top of the Skum's head.
The nearest skum continues to stab at Greez.
This time Greez is easily able to evade the spear thrust
Dergosh’s favored tactic was to wade directly into battle, and this was no exception, roiling lake of water or no. He hopped forward to the moss covered islet just in front of him and made a rude version of an arcane gesture at the skum out in the water, unleashing a silent scream at the fishman.
The skum ignored the magical blast and swam towards the cleric, a long trident rising out of the water from the fishman's hand to stab at Dergosh's belly.
Dergosh's breastplate barely turns the attack, as the skum and cleric continue to parry ineffectually.
Over at curtain of vines, another skum bursts hurriedly through the barrier, with more in tow behind him.
Tigerwolf hefted her large blade and sliced it down the scum and prepared to take on those coming after.
She attacked silently and with a grace and strength with the large blade her small form wouldn't seem to be able to do.

Tigerwolf grins as Tigerclaw's bronze seemed to soak in the blood and she could feel it chose this enemy type to soak in its blood and empower her strikes.
A deep grunt came from that attack. This time would just try to send a punch at that fish thing's face if was still in range but doing it using a Flurry of Blows.
Odak’s heavy sword sliced deeply into the skum’s exposed shoulder while Greez’s kicks to his head sent the creature’s skull violently thrashing backwards. The skum went limp and started to sink lifelessly.
Majuba's hex takes affect on the remaining skum
Tigerwolf cleaved the skum coming through vines, smashing him in the ribs while Garmack loosed two arrows.
Between Tigerwolf's blow and Garmack's arrow the skum nearly falls, but he stumbles forward. As he does so, through the vines you catch a glimpse of at least two more of the fishmen if not more.
When in doubt, smash'em in the face
Dergosh tore his loudly buzzing mace from his hip and struck at the skum's head...
...grunting angrily as his blow was deflected by the fishman's spear.

Rd. 3 Init.3.
if the skum in the pool is still alive at this point.
The Doctor will cackle as a move action extending the misfortune hex and then give the skum the Evil Eye(Will 18) I will lower the skum's AC by 2. If he fails his save(Which he must roll twice for) it will last 9 rds. if he makes his save. it will last 1 rd.
if the skum is dead, The Doctor will hold his action until an enemy is within 30' and will let loose with the Misfortune Hex(Will 20) on the closest one. All the while staying behind Odak and Greez.
Karol starts to inspire the party, +1 to hit, +1 to damage
Here is an updated map
Will move over toward Tiger's fishmen area. If within 40 feet or less of first non-dead one would send a knee up to it's chin.
> Odak turns his head around to his far right as he spots Tigerwolf being outnumbered 3 to 1, his eyes widen as he hefts his blade up and strides after them with haste. He hurls his blade up into the air then slams it down upon one of the fishmen standing at the end of his sprint.
Odak uses his 20ft movement to get into melee range of the nearest enemy target. He uses a simple melee attack with his sword then ends his turn.
Tigerwolf whiffed but Greez slams his knee into the skum just emerging onto the chamber, killing the wounded fishman. Odak storms over but unfortunately misses with his attack.
Although he avoids Majuba's new hex, the fishman, having had no success so far and still under the effects of misfortune, sinks back under the roiling water.
Seeing the skum sink back into the large, Dergosh roared with victorious anger.
"Come back and fight like a flounder!" he raged, kicking at the water.

Tigerwolf would move infront of the two. She would try to cleave when the two came through starting with the one she already struck. Right to left. If she strikes the second it would be flatfooted. Many never expected the follow through.
• MAJUBA targets 'Skum D' with Misfortune Hex, it is successful! Skum D's AC has been reduced by 2.
• TIGERWOLF targets Skum C and D with a Cleaving strike. In order to get into position, she opens herself up to the Skums' retaliations! The first one partially deflects the blade but sustains a minor wound nevertheless, the second Skum takes the full force of the follow-through and reels 5ft from the blow.
> Hits!
> Deflects 4 damage, receives 5 damage in total.
> Misses. Takes full damage.
Dergosh hops off his rock and moves behind Greez and Odak, prepared to boost either of them with bull's strength if the smelly fishmen prove troublesome. Too many bodies in the way for him to charge in as he preferred.
He glances wistfully at the fallen skum just before them. Oh yes, he could make that rotting fish turn into a screaming blaze if he wanted... For now, he waited to see how the battle would play out.
Garmack: If no one was in his line of sight, he'd fire two arrows at the nearest opponent; otherwise, he'd try to move into position to at least get off one shot.
• DERGOSH moves into position beside the tree-sized legs of Greez and Odak, able to see Tigerwolf at the front fighting the other fishpeople.
• GARMACK takes a flanking route around the landmass to get an unobscured view of SKUM-D, taking a single shot that strikes them in the shoulder!
• ODAK pushes forwards and stomps down around Tigerwolf to be at her side, confronting the injured SKUM with his giant blade! He attacks SKUM-C with a downward thrust...
(Hit!)
Odak critically wounds the Skum across the shoulder and chest. The giant prepares his Saving Shield to Tigerwolf if one of the Skum attempts to attack her.
MAP after DERGOSH, GARMACK, ODAK
Would move up the the Scum 'd' and perform a to him simple kick with a downwards swing instead of upwards.
Would move up the the Scum 'd' and perform a to him simple kick with a downwards swing instead of upwards.
• The hefty GREEZ lumbers towards his foe with a diving roll in hopes to flatten them with a eagle kick. However he ends up falling short and merely dents the ground instead. (He misses!)
[ENEMY ROUND]
The Skum look up wearily at the armoured titan ODAK and at the swift TIGERWOLF and change up their tactics a little. SKUM D takes a quick step next to it's ally and prepares to Aid-Other SKUM C to improve it's next attack roll.
(Critical Success!)
(Confirmed)
• SKUM D's coordinates perfectly with SKUM C, granting SKUM C a +4 attack bonus instead of the normal +2 attack bonus.
SKUM C with the help of it's ally, targets Tigerwolf in a last ditch effort to slay one of their intruders, thrusting their spear towards her chest! Odak's Saving Shield intervenes by sweeping his wall-like tower shield in the effort to deflect the blow, increasing TIGERWOLF's AC by 2.
(It hits!)
SKUM C misses penetrating TIGERWOLF's body but does cut her along her side, only a flesh wound. Meanwhile SKUM A afflicted with various hexes has decided to retreat into the water and out of view.
[NEW ROUND BEGINS, FIGHT!]
Again Tigerwolf swings to cleave them starting with the one on the left, swinging to her right but the wound knocks her aim off.
Will move in closer to the one and attack.
• TIGERWOLF's cleave swipes a few inches short of the Skum she was swinging at and missed.
• MAJUBA takes one long stride towards SKUM C to inflict Misfortune Hex upon it. It is successful and now the Skum is under it's effects.
• GREEZ picks himself up after his athletic roll and lifts his leg up to stomp on the Skum's head. Squashing the fish underfoot with an audible crack. SKUM C is dying and unable to battle.
