Pender, Male Human Fighter 6
Pender's natural reaction is to ride Northwind into the woods and take on the trolls directly. But he heeds Larian's words. No need to split up just yet. He reins Northwind in and draws his sword, his eyes darting around to take in the evolving situation.
[sblock=OOC]Quick Draw as Free Action.
Then Ready an attack against any troll that enters a threatened square (let's say I start in the top left corner). Will use Ride checks to Guide With Knees, Fight With Warhorse, etc.
Currently mounted and in full armor.[/sblock]

Avril - Human Druid - AC 15 - hp 42/42 - Spot +12 - Listen +12
It felt strange camping another night without Scarlet, and even stranger still journeying back through the Witchwood without her companion by her side. The hurt had no faded away much, and so she kept mainly to herself as they walked, trying to concentrate on the battles that lay ahead and the army that awaited. Fear and nervousness were as much part of her journey as longing and sadness were.
Her anxiety heightened as they neared Vraath Keep again, and she wondered whether she could quickly divert to check on Scarlet's grave. Her thoughts could not come to fruition as troll-like creature's emerged from the forest. "Forest trolls!" she hissed in alarm as her eyes immediatly checked what her allies were doing. "Beware their poison!" she called before jumping after Warren, and pulling a wand from her belt as she moved. Once there, she touched the wand to Warren, coating his small frame in a deadly acid that would damage any natural attacks these creatures could throw against him.
[SBLOCK=OOC]
OOC: Move to J8 beside where Warren ends his action, drawing her Wand of Babau Slime as part of the move. Cast Babau Slime on Warren, covering him in acid which means any natural attack that hits him suffers 1d8 points of acid damage in return.
Spells and Abilities Active:
Babau Slime (Warren, 1 minute)
Spells Cast and Abilities/Items Used:
Wand of Babau Slime (1 Used)

Explorer
This time it's just a canopy, and probably won't effect this fight unless someone wants to fly above and fire down.
Initiatives - Surprise Round
Warren 23
Larian 18
Tyrla 15 - does not act in surprise round
Pender 13
Avril 13
Siobhan 13
Trolls 11
Warren: Adjusts his positioning slightly.
Larian: Larian's ray catches the Troll for 15 fire damage.
Pender: Stands ready.
Avril: Avril touches the halfling, granting him a protective ward against enemies who stray too close with their teeth and claws.
Siobhan: Siobhan is ready to charge if the trolls get in range. (I'm assuming slightly here, since on a surprise round you're limited to a single action, so I assumed readied partial charge if they come within range for it).
Trolls: All three chuck Javelins into the party. They have a range penalty due to the distance. None of the Javelins strike blood. One of the trolls steps out from his cover to take his shot, but otherwise they don't move. The one in the west calls out in a strange voice, "Come and gets me elvsies. Come and gets me!"

Avril - Human Druid - AC 17 - hp 42/42 - Spot +12 - Listen +12
Avril quietly thanked the spirits that they had avoided the powerfully thrown javelins. While she'd not encountered these vile forest trolls before, the spirits of her Forest had told her snippits of information about them. "Let's stay together. They're still trolls, though smaller." she cautioned, getting her shield firmly into place while dropping the wand at her feet. She then called on the elements of fire in nature to eradicate the vile beasts, evoking a powerful ball of fire onto the troll that had challenged them. "Abominations will be destroyed. The creatures of this forest are not yours." Her voice was strong and filled with conviction.
[SBLOCK=OOC]
OOC: Stay where she is at K9, and drop her wand at her feet. Ready her shield and cast Flaming Sphere, planting it on top of the troll to the west at A11. Reflex DC 15 negates 2d6 points of fire damage.

Babau Slime (Warren, 9 rounds)
Flaming Sphere (6 rounds)

Warren the halfling, HP 39/39, AC 29, Child of Shadow stance
Warren mutters "Ugh..." as Avril's wand covers him in slime, but holds back his revulsion. "I'm not very good at ranged combat, I'm going to advance on 'em slowly until they move their butts or I get within striking range." the halfling says, while carefully moving a bit closer to a troll, maintaining his defensive posture. He twists the shadows around him into a concealing cloak as he goes.
(move to N-8, maintaining total defense, changing stances to Child of Shadow for 20% concealment miss chance)

Trolls, huh? And they won't come closer? Let's see if we can force their hands a bit. With that he throws a pinch of sulfur and guano that forms into a glowing ball of flame when he speaks the word Incendio.

Siobhan controlled her impulse to dash and sink her hammer into the face of one of the trolls, more out of the fact that one of the creatures was clearly trying to goad them into doing just that than because of Larian's words.
Speaking a few strong words, she instead brought about a weapon of pure force forged from Kord's might. The weapon then struck at the troll that had spoken.
[sblock=OoC]Cast Spiritual Weapon. The weapon has +7 attack bonus and does 1d8+2 damage[/sblock]

Tyrla could agree with the wisdom of staying together- she had no wish to face trolls at close range, and their tactics suggested ambush lurking in the trees. Without a word, she pointed one hand at the troll who had spoken, and a crackling lash of energy flew in that direction...
OOC: 5 foot step to K 11, invoke Eldritch Spear at the troll on the west side; +8 ranged touch, 3d6 damage

Pender dodges a javelin, then continues to hold his ground as he waits for the casters' gambits to play out.
