El Garrapata hustles across the Log (tm), and moves toward the great cow-woman!

El Garrapata and Sidi can restate their actions if they like (though the attack rolls stick this round regardless). Otherwise someone is probably looking at a Large, Broken, Battleaxe of Opportunity (LBBoO).

You're a Brawler; shouldn't you be rolling 1d6 for fist damage?

While Sidi stumbles under the giant's onslaught, El Garrapata dives in and lands a ferocious haymaker that could have killed an ordinary person, but only jostles the minotaur, causing him to take a step back.

Crossing the Log Acrobatics (DC 7), no Dex bonus to AC while attempting the crossing. Failed? It takes a Reflex save (DC 13) not to fall in the rough waters. Instead you just fall prone on the 3'-wide log. It's log, it's big, it's heavy, it's wood.

Tawner clears the mouth of the cave 40' double move, and every other diagonal is 10'- map updated, I've literally just cleared it. Too many things happen at once:
There's a clearing, the sound of rushing water, some green foliage near the river, and chaos! The big men are engaged with an even bigger, deadlier Minotaur! War cries! Slashing!
Tawner hits his stride and digs in for more speed. He tries to yell something like Move away from them you big fat cow!, but all that comes out is, “MOO!” before Tawner has to gulp in more air. Great! Just great! My first battle cry is a cow giving birth! He continues to run full speed towards the others.

Minotaur! wrote:
"MOOOOO!!!" The feral giant does not look happy about the arrow that scored its arm. Hallimir can tell because the thing is looking directly at him.
It pulls a huge javelin (little more than an uprooted and sharpened) sapling from its bandoleer and hurls with terrific force at the elf.
The small tree hits another small tree just to Hallimir's right bisecting it.
Jeez, this thing is just as dangerous at range!!!
Then watching the others close to surround the beast, Hallimir decides that he cannot safely hit the Minotaur with his bow without risking injury to his companions.
He sheaths his bow, hurtles himself towards the stream and leaps across and into a flanking position with El Garapatta. i.e. making sure I have a 10ft run up. DC 10 right?
Acrobatics across the stream:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Like a single viking at a convention of annoying, pointy-hatted gnomes the minotaur lays about itself with axe and horns! This time he concentrates on the big blue one--smacking El Garrapata until the big man topples, before taking a step back to survey the carnage.
Init targets:1d6 ⇒ 6
Large, Broken, Battleaxe of Opportunity v El Garrapata (shaken, Str dam):1d20 + 7 - 2 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 7 - 2 - 1 = 132d6 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (2, 6) + 4 - 1 = 11A swing, and a miss.

Sidi swings his club again as the minotaur gores the odd blue-armored brawler, but it fails to connect. He grimaces in worry.

Are you sure? Cure light wounds is as mentioned before a touch-range spell, and were you are standing now is in the threat range of the minotaur....

You're not trying to pass off some old Bare Naked Ladies T-shirt from 1997 are you? Are you sure? Since it is part of the same roll/the possible result of your attack roll, I'm going to make you re-roll your damage too.

No problem. I don't expect to need to reroll a Fort save to avoid petrification, so I'll use it to try to end the fight. 11 is better than 7. And it's a pretty Season 8 shirt. :)

With loud *THUNK* the like the sound of a pop fly ball, Sidi beans the minotaur whose eyes roll up in his head before it falls over like a felled tree.

"Yeah. Ugh. I'm up. Uh. Oooh." Janira rises to her elbows. "Oh, high guys. Ready to get started. We've got a long way to walk today. Whoooah. Ugh, what did I drink last night? I feel like an ox cart hit me."

Sidi takes several steadying breaths as he moves away from the fallen minotaur and surveys the moonlit clearing. "I hope there are no more. They are fearsome strong."
Airyn turns back toward the halfling and nods sagely, "A Wo-Minotaur"
"Nope. From where I'm laying he is most definitely a man-o-taur. But whatever it was thanks. I owe you guys."
Janira gets to her feet--barely.

"You are right, Lydia," Sidi says, rubbing his neck, "Those two kobolds could not have been the ones murdering the gillmen."
He looks around the clearing. "Those of you who can heal should tend the wounded and then come. There is the other tunnel to explore."

"Agreed, I doubt those Kobold's would have posed much of a threat to the Gillmen over all this time. Possibly that Transparent Jelly like creature we discovered, but we should be sure."
Hallimir stands up and wanders over to El Garapatta and slaps him around the shoulder. "Are you alright my firend...you took one hell of a beating?"
"Killing gillwomen? Kobolds? Jelly? Like for toast? Did you find something?" Janira nearly swoons. "Ugh. I think I need more healing. And maybe toast."

"Apologies Janira, allow me to explain....
After entering the cave we met a deaf old Gillman named Uori. He told us that the cave is an ancient shrine to Aroden which the Gillmen have since been using as a place of sacred place of meditation and worship."
Hallimir turns away from Janira and looks up into the night sky. "Unfortunately, many Gillmen have been disappearing in the caves, never to be seen again, and Uori had no idea why....we agreed to search and try to determine what had befallen the missing Azlanti."
Turning back to the group, "When we began our search, we came across a pair of Kobolds who had set up in one of the tunnels. They attacked us but when one tried to flee, it ended up engulfed in some kind of acidic jelly creature...which also attacked us....We could hear your battle with the Minotaur echoing through the caves and your words spurred us to a swift victory over the creature." Hallimir raises his fist in triumph.
"....we could hear your struggle and came as fast as we could to aid you".
