Having swopped weapons Linar tries to sneak up to backstab the troll but kicks a stone sending it skittering agasint the bridge.
He misses by miles with the longsword, not throwing in the river but close. The dark elf stabs with his short sword, hioping to actually achieve something i btheis fracs.

MS85, HS85, LS THAC018 [1d100]=97,[1d100]=67,[1d20]=3
SS THAC0 20 dam v L [1d20]=14, [1d8
SS v L (troll) [1d8]=5
Longsword hits AC15. Shortsword hits AC6 for 5 pierce damage, but might be better (AC4 or maybe AC2) if Linar managed to get behind the troll to attack its back.

Jordek moves over to Bullock and lays a healing hand on him, reviving the minotaur. Likewise Fin moves carefully up behind Nocturno and adds a small healing of his own. The troll bellows furiously at the high elf and raises his gangly arms for a devastating blow but suddenly it collapses to the ground, clawing at its back. Linar stands behind the crumpled heap, slinging troll blood from his short sword. In a fury at the beast, Nocturno brings his sword down hard enough to decapitate the troll and strike a spark against the stone bridge beneath! He stands there panting, the fury of his priestly power still coursing through him...


[hope you don't mind, i used the previous roll for Linar from the round where he didn't quite close the distance to his target since it never came into play ;)]
[Nocturno's rolls should have been with a d12 since this is a large creature. you can reroll if you want and take the highest]
========

Jordek casts Cure Light Wounds on Bullock

Fin touch Noct AC10 [1d20]=11, hit

Linar move up behind the Troll to engage it in melee
Linar slashes with the Longsword in his Right at the Troll (AC 4) from behind (+2)
Thac0 18 vs AC 4(+2): Need 12+
[1d20] = 3, miss

Linar stabs with the short sword in his Left at the Troll (AC 4) from behind (+2)
Thac0 20 vs AC 4(+2): Need 14+

Linar pulls out his short swrod and slashes and stabs at the troll, "Someone make a fire? See if the troll can grow back from ashes."

Let's just keep the head apart from the body, and call the damage rolls a wash.

Jordek sets about building a fire but comments, You know, we were told Troll Blood was quite a prize component. It would be a shame to let it all go to waste....

Bull

Thank you, Little friend. This is just another sample of why I need to get some real armor. Let's go collect some blood from that thing to help us pay for equipment and rations.

He moves off to collect what blood he can that isn't his own.

Jordek sets the fire and works on building it up as Nocturno keeps the troll subdued by repeatedly stabbing, slashing and hacking at it in his holy rage. Fin tries a healing spell on the recently revived minotaur, but the magic fails to repair any further damage until he has had a chance to rest.

As they prepare to collect some of the blood, Jordek takes a deep drink from his waterskin. I guess Bordertown isn't far from here, I can get a new waterskin there, but this is all I have to put that stuff in.

Which containers are people using for the troll blood?
