Derrigan runs around the table, swiftly moving with an easy grace that makes him a hard target for the one greenscale that he does pass... skidding to a halt next to Dioban and quickly motioning for his bow, daggers, rapier, ANYTHING to fight with, while keeping a wary eye on the enemies.

Move action around Greenscale #1 and ending up at G7, then go to total defense. Mobility feat adds +4 to AC vs. AoO, and Total Defense adds +6 at the end of the round.

Round 2

"Stay down here, and we will protect you." Jin waves his hands around in gestures that appear like that of a caster, then finishes his transformation and becomes the spitting image of the Queen.

“Stupid humans! Now you die!” Green Monster 1 screams. “I’m a Dwarf you numbskull.” Dzarro barks back, and turns beet red, quite offended.

“Stupid Dwarf...” Using its positional advantage, the slimy creatures kicks the wizened Dwarf in the face and then grapples him about the neck before Dzarro can shake it off again (8 and 6 damage)

Green Monster 2 joins its brood in assaulting the beleaguered Dwarf biting and clawing the advisor before he has a chance to recover. Fortunately, the old Dwarf is as tough as old boot leather and while bloodied, stills stands after the ordeal (6, 5, and 5 damage) “Is that all you got!”

Green Monster 3 holds his side in pain, still stunned from Rogesh’s well placed blow.

With his opponents deserting him, Green Monster 4 turns his attention to the diminutive figure next to him, Rogesh. The Halfling’s cat like reflexes save him from the worst of scaly creatures attacks but he still suffers a nasty bite for his troubles (9 damage)

Outside the din and chaos of the battle in the dining room comes a great “WHOOSH” followed by a flash of refracted orange light viewed up through the destroyed ceiling window. Shouts from concerned crewmen reach the couriers ears.

Discarding the methodical approach, Dioban just dumps the chest out onto the floor and starts chucking weapons to the other couriers.

Nikos takes advantage of the Rogesh’s handiwork, bypassing the stunned monster closest to him (3) and races over the spilled pile of weapons were he retrieves his longsword.

Derrigan recovers his prized weapon from the mess of weapons and smoothly draws and looses arrow straight into one of the filthy creatures neck, felling it neatly back onto the table (12 damage)

Longbow attack vs. 3 (1d20 14=17, 1d8 1d8 3=12)

Jayden picks up his spiked chain and slams it at his closest opponent (3) with all the rage and frustration his failed tumblings brought up in him. Wood splinters fly out from the dining table and remnants of crockery are smashed into even smaller pieces but the couriers aim is off.

Rogesh tries to emulate his earlier stunning strikes, and although he makes good contact, leaving the green lizard (2) with a bloodied eye and nose (4 and 3 damage), it shakes off the worst of the halfling’s pressure point attacks.

Flurry of Blows vs. 2 (1d20+9=21, 1d6+2=4, 1d20+9=23, 1d6+2=3)

Captain Arimart picks up his sabre and slashes at a monster (2), cutting it across the forearm (3 damage)

Dzarro continues his boxing match with his creature but losses this round on points and a distinct lack of razor sharp teeth (6 damage from AoO).

Taking a full round action to dump the chest and try to arm all the others.

Jin calls out with his own voice, "No, stay here where I can protect you!" then pops up from behind the table looking just like her now and speaks in her very proper manner, "I'll not sit idle while these monsters attack. I'm not helpless you know." Quickly, she (he) takes a step back to the corner of the room and (at E3) flicks a wand of grease at them. Instantly the area of the table where the creatures are standing becomes slick with grease.

Using Bluff to hide the casting of the wand: 25. Are these troglodytes? (KS: Dungeoneering: 26

I'm wondering if Jin can secretly draw a hidden dagger from his wrists, not sure if this got past the guards before. If not, Jin will have to use a chair as an improvised weapon.

Any courier adjacent to Dioban or the chest can use a move action to pick up their weapon(s) of choice

nickbeat - Minor changeshape is a full round action, so that wand routine will have to wait until Round 3

Touch attack (opponent gets -2 couse of the stun on AC and no Dex bonus to def), trip attack (not sure a stunned oponent can defend from that at all), hit with -5 for full power attack (but the opponent gets -4 for prone and -2 for stun and no Dex bonus to def), damage (forgot the +10 for full PA) (1d20+8=11, 1d20+6=21, 1d20+3=5, 2d4+4=11+10=21)
