Tores being the weakling mage he is goes to the back of the group, "I don't want to take the fun away from you guys... but, since they are charging us, I could throw down some caltrops and we could riddle them with arrows! I also got a nasty spell that sends the caltrops flying into the air, but I won't do that for fear it might hurt us as bad as them!"
If party likes caltrop idea:
Pulls out bow and goes toward the front.
If party dislikes caltrops:
Pulls out bow and goes to back.
