(CSRHoD) Creamsteak's Red Hand of Doom II [IC]

Warren sticks behind Pender, letting the big, armored soldier go ahead of him, because there's no way he's going to waltz in first without the element of surprise. Out of the water now, the halfling keeps his short sword ready.

The group carefully edges their way up and onto the roof of the town hall, soon finding what looks like the bedding of a large creature in the middle of what would have once been a hallway. The upper floor is decrepid and filthy, covered completely in refuse and the garbage of whatever dwells here.

While at first it seems deserted, everyone hears the sudden blathering snotty discharge as a large humanoid-like creature releases a sudden impulsive and uncontrolled sneeze, discharging a puddle of mucus out from around the corner and onto the gravel below.

A sudden pause on both sides as they are both fully aware of each other (the players and the... enemy).

Six lumbering ogres lurk just around the corner, one of them having heroically spoiled their ambush with an uncontrolled bodily function and revealing their position. Another sound echoes up from down below, two deep bellowing voices growling in common, "Is dey dere yet?" "Were hungry!"
 



Tyrla fought to stifle a chuckle- even the enemy horde apparently couldn't get capable brutes, it seemed. Arcane energy crackled lightly around her hand as she extended her arm, ready to blast whichever foe was unlucky enough to appear first...

OOC: Ready action to invoke an eldritch blast at the first ogre to come into view. +10 ranged touch, 4d6+1 (point blank)
 

Larian withdraws his metamagic rod and uses it as he casts a now-familiar spell, speeding himself and his allies up and giving them an edge in the coming fight.

Avril - Human Druid (Crocodile) - AC 21 - hp 42/49 - Spot +13 - Listen +13

They found the enemy at least. It wasn't what the crocodile Avril was expecting, but now was the time to rid this place of evil and make another dent in this army's plans. In her current form she was perhaps not best suited to this battle, but she could remedy that with a few spells. She quickly used the magic of Nature to improve her agility and defenses, while keeping a steely crocodile eye out for the approach of their enemies.

(OOC: I think Pender just gave up on this game when it went inactive for several weeks, or just got fed up with EN World's horrible lag over the past few months. Warren's actions kinda depend on the big tough folks out front, since he won't go jump into battle without either surprise or allies beside him.)

Pender moves up the steps and straight into the first ogre in his path. He swings his greatsword scoring a respectable hit (16 damage).

Everyone Else
Everyone else, you can start anywhere within the red dashed outlines on the map (it's really just 2 areas, not 4, as they overlap between the two images) and act as you please. I'm going to disregard your posts above for now and wait for new posts declaring your actions since I changed the situation somewhat.
