Jericho charges the goblin to the west hiding near the tree, his bastard sword swinging sideways towards the little vermin's head, but it ducks in such a way that the D'orite's blade glances off its studded leather armor and into the bark of the tree.
After extinguishing the flames, Whitney is able to stand, and after reciting a few quick incantations, summons two balls of light and unleashes them on the goblin to the southeast, just as it prepares to unleash another arrow. A little yelp is heard when the arcane energy erupts, tearing through its armor and flesh, violently pushing it to the ground, motionless.
Norri, upon dropping his crossbow, charges the goblin standing in the open to the east, quickly drawing his dagger and thrusting it out towards his opponent, who sidesteps the thrust.
Tarowyn's arrow, with unequaled prescision, flys over Jericho's shoulder into the the chest of his opponent. The goblin, like its kin, lets out another coarse, but pitiful scream. Bhartus advances on the goblins to the west to within 10ft; calling upon the power of Moradin, a thunderous burst of light erupts between the western goblins hiding behind the trees. The goblin facing Jericho and wounded by Tarowyn drops unconscience to the ground, while the other, drops its shortbow, visibly shaken. Jericho, caught in the blast, also drops his weapon, similarly shaken.
Jericho takes 3 and is stunned.
The five remaining armed goblins unleash another series of arrows. Bhartus, taking cover behind a tree, is able to avoid that projectile meant for him, it instead landing on the other side of the tree. Two strike Tarowyn, through his armor, inflicting painful if shallow wounds. One strikes Whitney, grazing her shoulder; the damage is slight, though the goblin obviously knew how where the human neck artery was. The goblin facing Norri steps back five feet and takes a quick, desperate shot on the attacking halfling, wounding the little guy's leg.
Tarowyn takes 7. Whitney takes 3. Norri takes 4.
Whitney is up. Six goblins remaining, one of which is stunned. Jericho is stunned for a round and cannot take actions. Bhartus is 10ft away from the stunned goblin.

Whitney curses under her breath as the wound starts to sting. This outfit is most assuredly ruined. She thinks to herself as she spins to see the goblin that hit her and chants quickly, as two more balls form as dash off at the goblin. (Magic missile)
Whitney unleashes her arcane might on the goblin to the northwest, blasting its little form back to the edge of the campfire light and away from the tree it was using as cover.
As the little whelp echoes through the forest, Norri continues to engage his opponent on the eastern edge of the camp. His dagger is blessed, finding piercing the goblin's shoulder quickly before withdrawing in a minor spray of black blood. The little foe hisses, but does not fall.
Tarowyn swings around and fires off two arrows at the halfling's enemy, both arrows lodging in the ground near the little figures' feet.
Bhartus loads and fires a bolt into the arm of the exposed goblin to the southwest.
Both that goblin and its comrades respond with another torrent of arrows, the staggered goblin immediatly to the west of Bhartus retrieving his shortbow from ground and firing an arrow that lands in the staggered D'orite's elbow. Another arrow, unleashed with deadly accuracy and an awareness of its target's weakness, catches Jericho in the neck, a torrent of blood splashing against the nearby tree(critical). The goblin facing Norri, who is already heavily injured, steps back another 5ft lodges and arrow in the halfling's thigh. Two more arrows hit home, one each in the back of Bhartus and Tarowyn.
Tarowyn takes 6. Jericho takes 21. Norri takes 3. Bhartus takes 4.
Jericho is up and is no longer staggered, though his bastard sword is lying on the ground near his feet. There are 5 goblins remaining, three of which (west and southwest of bhartus, east of Norri) are obviously injured.
