The ogre roars and starts down the stairs, walking awkwardly as it tries to fit its huge feet onto the narrow steps. Beneath the stairs, Erista is showered with dust, grit, and dislodged insects...
Ozzy hurries forward and risks a quick look around the doorframe. There is a lot of blood visible in the magical illumination that fills the room, and a fair bit of it seems to belong to the halfling's friends.
Aramil goes even further, stepping into the room to help Fergus and Eilieen, should they need it. The half-elf stands with them, blade in hand.
Foaming at the mouth, and yelling almost as loudly as the ogre, Aarnr rushes at the monstrosity and hacks at its legs as it descends. The angle is wrong though, and his blade is deflected as it strikes the edge of a step and fails to hamstring the creature.
Erista lurks, still, beneath the steps, as the ogre's ponderous footsteps thud on the stone above her head...
Corian raises his crossbow and prepares to send a quarrel in through the door, he aims high, and only intends to shoot when he sees the monster. Hopefully this won't endanger anybody else...
Bilfro steps into position behind the mage, brandishing his broken spear.
Ignoring Aramil, Fergus moves to attack the ogre. His weapon has better reach than the priests, and the ogre has descended a little further. The big farmer's scythe slashes across the ogre's fat gut, spilling even more blood in the room. The beast leaps down from the stairs, swinging its own weapon, a massive, spiked club, two-handed towards Fergus' head.
Aramil rushes forward and raises his own blade to deflect the blow, but the ogre is too powerful. The club knock's the bard's sword aside and fells Fergus...
Corian shoots, but the bolt goes wide of the mark and strikes the wall behind the ogre... The mage starts to reload. Colwyn yells, "Fergus!" and shoots at the ogre too, but the shot is hurried and even manages to miss the doorway.
And Eilieen hurls her weapon. But the shock of seeing Fergus struck down causes her to miss her aim, and the spear clatters against the wall and falls onto the stairs...
