Already riding the razor thin line of sanity, Turngut sees the hound bite into Nalia. Whipping his head around, he can't find Poppo. Assuming the worst, his yellow, blood-shot eyes, zero in on the 2 other approaching hounds and he tips over the edge of sanity and enters a void filled only with hatred, rage and the thirst to end his enemy.
Turngut charges just crushes the canines skull in.
The three huntsmen draw light crossbow's and begin firing on Turngut. While the red huntsmen bolt whizzes off because of the wind, the yellow and blue both land shots on the orc. The yellows shot is particularly brutal as it thuds into Turngut's chest

As Turngut takes those two blows from the Huntsmen the camera panes under the bridge revealing two hanging large cages containing the skeletal remains of two ogres. They animate and begin climbing up the side of the bridge.
Bobie, Poppo, and Nalia the battle of the bridge rages on what do you all do?
Poppo wants no part of a skeletal ogre, as he reappears, and then immediately disappears again. He rushes over toward Turngut and calls out.
Kill this dog, then go crush those ogres! Poppo's not sure if he'll follow directions, but he doesn't want to fight giant skeletons.
Poppo briefly reappears giving Turngut instructions before disappearing again. Bobie casts another spell on Beatrip as they move up. Nalia recalls some knowledge about the creatures climbing up the side of the bridge these are skeletal ogres . She then chops into the dog killing it swiftly.
The final dog bites into to Turngut Turngut you're up!

Not seeing Poppo reappear, but only hearing his voice, Turngut's grief and fury-clouded mind has trouble making sense of what he head. H-hoppo? Hoppo dead. Ghost!? Hoppo's ghost tell Turngut how to be good from now on!
With that, he sizes up the dog, feints and roundhouse kicks it cleanly off the bridge. Before the animal even begins to fall, Turngut spins and begins to advance on the climbing ogre skeletons, bellowing an Orc war cry.
Turngut puts all of his force behind his kick stunning the dog before in a classic pro wrestling move pounce launches the dog over the railing. However as the dog falls to its doom the wound from the dog bite begins to fester
The dog turns into a thin pudding as it falls two hundred feet onto particularly spiky rocks. As he looks to the emerging skeletal ogres he reckons it would probably be especially difficult to push them over the railing due to their size.
The skeletal ogres emerge one goes to hit the ghostly Beatrip but slips a bit on the icy bridge missing the attack. The other strikes Nalia nearly a lethal strike but thanks to Nalia's protective armor she is able to avoid what could have been a critical strike . The huntsmen continue to fire on Turngut but only one is able to land their shot .

The dog is still indeed a thin pudding among spiky rocks.
Poppo tucks in behind Turngut and begins casting a spell.
Beatrip's first slam narrowly misses, but the second manages to connect. Bobie is getting used to his long spear as he expertly spins around distracting skeletal ogre and stabbing past its thick armor and severing the creatures head from its spine. Nalia heals herself but cant quite get past the thick plate armor of the ogres.
Turngut you're up.
Turngut continues his spin, ducking under the skeletal ogre's clumsy swipe, but an arrow sinks into his calf from the archers. Using the pain of the strike to fuel his rage, Turngut unleashes on the remaining skeleton.
Turngut batters the remaining skeletal ogre to a dust.
The Huntsmen fire on the closest thing, Poppo but only is able to even graze the halfling

Not being in full control of his anger, Turngut's mind clears after he shatters the final skeleton and a wave of exhaustion comes over him. He looks around briefly, as if seeing his friends for the first time in the combat. As the arrows continue to pelt them from the Huntsmen, Turngut signs, but steels himself and runs at them, attempting to hammer one (Yellow) with a knee to the gut.
But right before Turngut rushes off, Poppo finishes casting his spell and suddenly Turngut grows large. He then rushes behind Turngut.
Bobie's bolt soars past red. All of the huntsmen five foot step and draw hand axes. While the blue and yellow huntsmen miss their chops, the red one sinks his axe deep into the achilles tendon of Turngut nearly bringing the now large orc to his knees

Turngut howls in pain at the slash. Breathing heavily, he eyes up the Yellow huntsman and tries to shove him over the edge.
He then activates his Daredevil boots and tries to leap over Blue (and maybe Yellow if he's still there).
You watch as Turngut pushes the huntsmen to his doom. He is then able to acrobatically run on the rail and get around the remaining huntsmen.
Once Turngut clears the way, Poppo advances swinging his axe at the blue huntsman.
Nalia rushes in but due to the wind and the very precarious hole she misses her attack. Poppo sees Nalia miss her attack and takes his time compensating for the wind and keeping his breathing steady despite the thin air. Poppo chops deep into the huntsmen shoulder but the strange thrall doesn't go down.
Bobie you're up.
Beatrips gets chopped as she moves up to attack but does manage to hit the huntsmen but not take him down. Bobibe misses with his crossbow shot. Both huntsmen five foot step and take chops at the large orc both hitting the orcs legs .

Everyone can go!
Riddled with arrows, bleeding profusely from the critical wounds on his legs, and still spent from his brief rage, Turngut stumbles to the side, sees the yawning chasm behind the remaining huntsman and shoves with all of his might.
On a success, target pushed back 5 ft. For every 5 by which your attack exceeds your opponent’s CMD you can push the target back an additional 5 ft.
You can move with your target if you wish.
If there is another creature in the way, immediately make a second CMB check (with -4) to bull rush that creature. If successful, push both the lesser distance of the 2 rolls.
With a slash from Nalia and a quick sparta kick by Turngut the final huntsmen plummets to the sharp rocks below. As he does the sound of his reverberates up the mountain and you hear the snarl of some sort of creatures below. As you look down you see pale skinned humanoids climbing easily over the sharp rocks and devouring the bodies below. With the bridge threat dealt with you look up at the sky piercing tower. Ominous lightning strikes nearby and the ear bleeding sound of thunder ricochets off of each of the towers.
Before the huntsman hits the rocks, Turngut's eyes roll back in his head. He sways briefly and then falls over in exhaustion, snapping one of the protruding arrows as his massive body hits the ground.
Uhngh. Uhhhngh? Friends safe? He murmurs.

Turngut! Your friends are safe. Let me try and ease your pain, don't struggle....
Healing blessing so extra 50% and burn my bane spell for CLW sub
so plus 4 to bring to 12
then will switch to wand.
Poppo, can you check these critters for any healing potions? Unfortunately, the two who might have had any are at the bottom of the chasm all smooshed up.
The huntsman that wasn't pushed off the bridge doesnt have much on him a handaxe, a light crossbow, ragged studded leather armor, and a torch. The skeletal ogre has a large set of rusted half plate and a large great club. The dogs have nothing on them.
After a few moments (for fatigue to wear off) and the magical healing, Turngut nearly looks back to normal. He slowly heaves himself up from the ground and looks around at the carnage. Good. Friends are safe. Turngut happy to have strong friends.
Poppo hops around searching the bodies.. Well this is a bunch of junk, nothing shiny here. What were the weird grey things down there?!
If Turngut is feeling better, I say we press forward!
Poppo watches on as Nalia puts flourish into here wand work maximizing the healing power trapped within.
