As Jordek is lowered down Findalsip readies his sling on the side of bridge ready hurl a missile if the need arises. He keeps his head on a swivel for approaching creatures from either side of the bridge.

Jordek climbs down with the rope about his waist, Nocturno standing by and Bullock holding the line as the two underdark natives stand on the other side watching. The gnome passes under the bridge and out of sight. After a few moments some rustling and tumbling of stone can be heard. Suddenly jordek calls back Oh Shit! Pull me up!!! Pull me UP!!!

Jordek dodges and weaves as he half-climbs half-leaps into view of the others, dangling from the rope as Nocturno and Bullock begin to pull him back. Long, gangly, clawed hands swipe at the Forest Gnome, missing by the barest of margins. A crumbling sound can be heard beneath the bridge and the scraping of rocks. On the far side Fin begins to chant words of power as he embues a trio of stones with magical force.

The Minotaur and the Elf manage to get Jordek back to ground quickly. From behind the bridge a ghastly visage glares at them. Greasy black hair, gaunt cheeks and leathery green skin shake in fury as the figure scrambles up the embankment to face them. Long, sharp claws and spindly limbs flail in anger as the troll roars in their direction; spittle flying form it's black teeth and lips.

Jordek solidifies his position on stable ground and murmurs a quick prayer to bless a trio of rocks. Fin moves a little closer into range and begins to hurl his own three magical stones at the troll, though all miss. The gangly, stinking Troll lumbers up to the Minotaur, topping him by nearly a foot. With a terrible screeech of rotting breath it slashes and bites at the Minotaur, tearing horrible wounds into the fighter.

The minotaur's blade slips from his fingers as he swings and the Giant sword clatters to the stones of the bridge behind the troll. Undaunted, Bullock lowers his horned head and gores the Troll mightily; eliciting screams of pain and anger from his foe. Linar manages to strike the Troll with one of his arrows and Nocturno calls upon the righteous Rage of Corelon; entering a state of pure fury as he rushes up behind the troll.

Jordek begins hurling stones at the Troll as the melee continues. Bullock reaches for his swords as the gangly creature slashes him; dropping the minotaur. The troll turns his assault on the enraged Priest, but the heavily armored elf weathers the attack.

Fin moves closer to the melee as Nocturno cuts the troll deeply. Jordek strikes the hulking creature with two more stones; staggering but not quite dropping the green-skinned monster.
