Two of the strange, shadow kobolds get off a shot at Thorg before he can close in but their shots deflect off his shield. Renard moves next and heads to the kobolds' flank before unloading two rapid shots at the nearest creature, but their shadowy forms are difficult to focus upon and Renard also misses. The next kobolds fire, and this time get past Thorg's raised shield, harming the priest with two well-aimed bolts (-4 hps to Thorg).
Guy is the next to act, his boasting increasing his fighting skill as he leaps over the obstruction and attacks with both blades. His short sword connects, leaving a red trail of blood over the arm of a darkened form. He does not fell his opponent, but he leaves him quite scared with a nasty gash.
Samuel moves in behind Renard for protection and to provide support, but his sling shot goes wide despite his witty banter. The fifth kobold fires a shot of his own with a bolt that misses Thorg by a mile. All five kobolds drop their crossbows and begin to reach for daggers at their hips.
Carl attempts to disarm one of the kobolds, but has trouble getting a clear lane of attack because of the pack of people and the overturned tables and nearly hits Thorg instead. Thym moves to attack also, but his blast goes wide and he instead blows a hole in the surface of the table.
Thorg moves forward and misses despite his confident demeanor, snapping off a leg from the upturned table instead of a kobold's head.
