Both Hark and Ars do their best to discretely check the trees above them (RollMind3 each, rolled 2, 2, failure, 2 XP each), but to no avail.
Sudden a hail of javelins rain down from above!
Hark instinctively raises his shield and blocks the incoming javelins while Phas scambles behind tree. Ars and Kromwell as not quite as fast, unfortunately, and they each get hit by a javelin (both Ars and Kromwell lose 1 hp).
As you try to recover, eight gobleans leap down from the trees all around you. They raise their short swords and attack!
OOC: I'll allow one free round for missile fire and magic if anyone wants to take a shot before close combat begins.

Kromwell lets loose an arrow and then draws his sword!

After being hit by the javelin, anger wells up in Ars and he strikes back with a lightening bolt.

His shield already in hand Hark simply prepares for battle, firmly waiting for the enemy to approach.

Kromwell fires his bow (RollBody2, rolled 3, hit, 1 damage). The arrow strikes one of the gobleans wounding it.
Phas hurls a stone from his sling at a charging goblean(RollBody 2, rolled 1, miss), but the stone strikes a tree instead.
Finally Ars focuses his magical power and summons a bolt of lightning! (RollSpirit2, rolled 3, success) The bolt leaps from Ar's hand and into one of the gobleans. The foul little creature is blasted back to the ground and does not get up again.
Then the gobleans reach you and the battle is joined.

Phas, having failed with his sling, immediately sweeps out his sword and prepares to defend himself.

Hark shouts a guttural war cry while moving to attack the nearest foe.

Kromwell and if there's a goblean still in a tree, heads up there and draws his sword. Otherwise, he'll engage whomever his companions are attacking.

The gobleans descend upon you, coming from all sides. Kromwell, Hark, and Phas each face two while Ars, who was slightly shielded by the others, only faces one.
Hark charges forward with his spear and shield and attempts to skewer (rolled 4) the two gobleans approaching him (rolled 4). The gobleans manage to block the overconfident warrior's spear and push him back a couple of steps.
Kromwell lunges with his dagger (rolled 3) as the two gobleans attack (rolled 3). The rogue is able to fight them both off.
Phas draws his short sword and defends himself (rolled 3) against his two foes (rolled 2) and his able to deliver a solid blow against one seriously wounding the goblean.
Ars readies his staff (rolled 4!) and faces the last goblean (rolled 0!). To everyone's surprise (especially the goblean), the wizard strikes the goblean in the temple with his staff killing it instantly.
OOC: Next round starts now. Six gobleans remain, two are wounded. Ars is not currently under attack and is free to cast spells.

Annoyed by the resistance of the gobleans he is facing, Hark decides to try and bash one of them with his shield, while keeping the other at bay with his spear, in an attempt to tip the odds in his favor.

Ars take his moment of brief reprieve to cast lightening at one of the wounded Gobleans.

Emboldened by his success against 2 Gobleans in round 1 Phas advances swinging his sword hard. In an attempt to distract his opponents he tries some 'trash talking'. E.g. 'Your mother was friendly with B'Norks', 'Have you got any engravings of your wife with no clothes on? You want to buy some?', 'You're sorry excuses for Gobleans, I've had fights with tougher bunny rabbits', 'You fight like girls!', 'What is that perfume you're wearing?'

Kromwell says, "Again? Again!" and lunges with his blade at a goblean.

Hark slams his shield into one of the gobleans he is facing and tries to skewer the other (Rolls 6). The gobleans falter before the warrior's skill (Roll 3 total). One has it's face bloodied by the boss of Hark's shield (takes 1 hit) while the other gets a spear through the belly (takes 2 hits) and falls dead.
Phas struggles to fend off his two foes while shouting insults (Rolls 2). Suddenly one of the gobleans is zapped by a bolt of lightning that leaps from the smoking fingers of Ars (Cast Lightening DR2, rolls 3, 3 hits). The other goblean attacks (Rolls 2), but merely matches the rogue.
Kromwell does not fare so well (Rolls 3); the gobleans hack and slash with their short swords (Roll 5), cutting though his leather armor and drawing blood (Kromwell takes 1 hit).
OOC: Only four gobleans are left; one (wounded) on Hark, two (one wounded) on Kromwell, and one on Phas.

Phas makes a quick mental note to thank Ars for his help when the battle is over. He then grits his teeth and concentrates on dispatching his remaining opponent.
