"Ooouurgh, no. You can't beat me. Not like this."
Sephird is next; the large hairy goblin is bent double, holding the wall. Still conscious, he looks up and stares into your eyes, with resignation.
With a manic smile on his face, Sephird yells back, "Puppy licker!" while attacking again.

The door opens, and a human in incomplete half-plate runs through, carrying a bastard sword and shield, heading for the stairs, drawing AoO from Sephird and Ensu, if they wish. (Tregar and Valoria last had missile weapons drawn, so don't threaten his path.)
Ensu attack
Current initiative situation for this round is;
Furry No-pants (acted),
Valoria (acted),
Galstok (acted),
Sephird (acted),
Goblins (acted),
Armoured Swordsman (acting),
Kavrik (KO),
Ensu,
Tregar.
I need to know if Sephird is taking that AoO, before I complete his action.
Not unless it appears that he is attacking, if just running, Sephird will let him by. (Sword raised to attack or lowered in flight)
The goblinoid snarls, takes a 5' step to the western edge of the room, by Sephird's side, and goes one of the trophies on his shoulder.
It is a shrunken gourd of some kind, and you realise, as he breaks the top with his gnarled claw, that he intends to take a drink from it.
+2 if flanked
Distracted from the human, Sephird unfortunately misses an opportunity to shish-kabob the goblin.
He holds the gourd between his teeth, and throws his head back, blocking your blow with the handle of his flail.
He then spits the wrinkled remains into the corner, and gives a momentary shudder, before grinning at you, with a leer that goes from ear to ear. His earlier fatigue seems to have worn off, and he appears partially rejuvenated.
Valoria takes aim at the grinning goblin and fires her crossbow hoping for a true strike.
Damage:
Galstok steps forward following the creature out of the room. Fatigue and injuries warring with his eagerness for battle, Galstok brings his hammer swinging in from the side.

The goblins take advantage of the distraction, to throw some parting shots;
Attack of Opportunity
Attack of Opportunity
Attack of Opportunity
but, even fatigued, you manage to show them up.
Your blow hits the larger goblinoid, putting him back in his earlier state, staggering and leaning against the wall.

And Happy Christmas to all.
It's 10:50 am in Snorter HQ, and I've managed to get all the present opening out of the way. Managed to sneak a minute on the PC, in between Bob the Builder and Spongebob games, then I've to get ready to visit the in-laws for lunch. I expect everyone else has similar full diary, so today may be a slow posting day, so if we don't hear from you till Monday, don't sweat it.
Sephird will take a step to stand north of the big goblin and swing at him again.

Galstok; you are aware of a chittering and sniggering behind you, and a goblin attempts to castrate you with a broken bottle.
Attack
She drives it up and under your groin, but luckily, you were wearing your studded leather skirt, which takes the cut.
You whirl round to face the snarling culprit, and see Kavrik's feet disappearing from sight.
Seeing the beasts drag the Chelaxian further into the room, Galstok hesitates until hearing the big creature drop behind him. Moving back into the room he readies his hammer, thinking to himself What am I doing saving a Chelaxian's arse?! Assuming he's even still alive
Entering the room he will swing on either one threatening Kavrik directly or nearest one he can reach.
Round 3/4 of fatigue
Attack:
Damage:

Ensu steps back to the far wall, guarding Galstok's current space in front of the door, and stabbing the fallen goblinoid.
"I'll not catch them; someone else go upstairs. I'll hold off these runts, if they break out."
The body on the floor writhes involuntarily, as the spear point sticks in his leg.

FYI; one of the reasons for me being busy this last week has now been uploaded HERE. Now with typos corrected!
Valoria speaks out, "I will go to Tregar. Someone chop that goblin's head off to make sure it is properly dead."
She heads up the stair to Tregar.
Hearing Valoria's request, Sephird will poke the goblin at his feet.
Sephird will next move to help finish off the goblins in the room.

As you clear the corner, you can see Tregar's back, and beyond, in the door frame, is the swordsman. Neither seems to have gained the upper hand, both fighting cautiously.
MAP HERE.
A single move of 30' will take you all the way up to the square immediately behind Tregar.
Valoria runs up the steps and stops as she rounds the corner seeing Tregar in battle with the swordsman. Realizing the difficult situation at hand, she decides to cast her final spell as magic missile at the swordsman.
Magic missile damage:
|
The missile flies past Tregar's ear, into the swordsman, making him wince.
You can tell that Tregar appears to be focussed on parrying or dodging the swings from the swordsman, which appear to be made with considerable force, given the chips that fly from the doorframe.
"Give it up! We got five more coming, right behind me. We're here for the goblins. And for the Tian half-elf."

He's using the bastard sword one-handed, and appears to have no difficulty keeping his balance, while keeping his shield up over his vitals.
He then steps back out of sight to his left.
That map has more info than you are currently aware of, but it doesn't matter for now.
