Awakened by the ruckus outside, Mona peeked out from her tent and looked upon the scene with horror. Her divine magicks or martial skills would do her little good here. She did however, begin the incantation for healing (next round).
Earstwhile, Scun continued battling the spiders. He plunged the burning brand in the midst of the crawling things, igniting a score of the spiders (crit, 3 damage). These spiders spread out in pain, candle-like flames flitting about the crawling darkness. In their agonized wanderings, these little spiders managed to share their pain with some of their other brethren.
ooc: Nezrak's turn. He is currently at the campfire where there are two firebrands left.
Round 2:
19-Scun
19-Nezrak
15-Spider Swarm
14-Ogrin
14-Rasereit
06-Rillian
04-Mona

Nezrak picked the remaining brand of fire and offered it to Rillian. (free action to recieve it on Rillian's turn).
The swarm advanced upon Scun, who tried batting the crawling vermin away with his weapon (1 damage, 4 damage total). But they were an irresistible force, making their way unto the half-orc's legs and biting him there (5 damage, 10 total) . He felt his body resist the effects of the poison and he was able to stave off the distraction that being in the midst of them brought.
But the pain was too much, even for the stalwart cleric of Mongrel. He fell soon after and was engulfed in the swarm's area. (Scun is at -1 hp)

Seeing his comrade fall to the vermin, Ogrin swallows hard and leaps to attack them as soon he has a hot fire to attack with.
OOC: If it would be more expedient to drop his unlit torch and pick up Scuns fallen torch he will do so instead. Otherwise, Move to fire, light torch, attack if possible.

/ooc Does it appear that a significant portion of the Swarm is not actually on Rasereit (not sure since swarms are large?)? If the Swarm is all on him, Rillian will attack with burning brand as previously stated.
If on the otherhand, a sizeable portion of the swarm is not on him, then consider the following in character (though probably more than one action):
Rillian, finally shaking the cobwebs from his mind, rushes back to his pack and grabs out one of the wineskins filled with oil. He then rushes back to the Swarm and starts squirting the oil onto the portion not covering Rasereit, while yelling "Light the oil, Light the oil on the spiders!"

to Rln: if by expedient you mean less dangerous, then I shall have Ogrin light his own torch.
Ogrin moved to the campfire (MA*) and lit his torch on the remaining burning brand (MA). It took a few seconds for the torch to become aflame but, soon enough, the halfling now held a flaming brand of his own.
He turned to face the vermin that swarmed over Scun's body.
RillianPA: I assume that when you wrote "Rasereit", you meant "Scun" since Rasereit is currently out of the swarm's area and beside the campfire... as was Rillian.
Rillian made his way back to his large backpack (MA) and after some searching, took out aclay flask (edit: waterskin) filled with one pint of oil (MA).
* Move action
An incantation sounded past the chaos of the vermin attack. Mona rushed into the midst of the spiders and lay her hand upon the prone Scun, her fingertips aglow with divine power.
"Awaken, Scun! Quickly!"
The thousands of bitemarks on the half-orc closed as the spell took effect. Though he was fully healed, the spider poison still coursed through his veins. And of course, there was the problem of being surrounded by vermin.
Scun is still prone but it is a free action for him to retrieve his fallen torch (it's beside him on the ground).

/ooc Nimisgod, if you will check Rillian's character sheet, you will notice that he specifically has 2x 1pint skins of oil (as well as 2x flasks). In answer to your question, yes I meant Scun, so I assume from your description of the action that a significant portion of the Swarm is not on Scun, and Rillian will begin squirting oil on his next action
