After the savage death of their companion Lombdas the adventurers counter-attack with renewed strength. Beltyne throws a dart at Lombdas' killer but misses his target. Sir Pelandres moves slowly towards the elf's foe while continuing to fight his two other adversaries. The fury of blows does not let him much time for a strike of his own and he cannot do more than block and evade the strikes coming now from three sides. Ugrab tightens his grib on his huge two-handed sword and cleaves in half one of the lizard monster. Adoven does a quick spin with his blade and chops the head of his opponent. Jamdak the dwarf hits low one of the lizardmen who is attacking Sir Pelandres. It is not enough to kill the monster, but the distraction provided by the dwarven warrior might give the knight a break for his next attack. Rattlehead moves in to cut one of the humanoid with his dagger but the blow only glances on the lizardmen's tough hide.
Apart from the three beasts on Sir Pelandres, the only one still standing is fighthing against the nimble Rattlehead but it is not fast enough to catch the rogue.
Please post your actions for the next round of combat.

Adoven
Adoven, with renewed vigor, turns towards Rattlehead's attacker with a smirk still holding his bastard sword two-handed.
Now you die...

Rattlehead
I'll nimblely put my dagger in his throat in this round.
I'll try to look like I'm taking it easy, I'm the only one who hasn't kill one yet.

Ugrad,
Seeing that Rattlehead hasn't killed his opponent, I slash the fourth lizardman.

BeltyneWell done Adoven, Well done Ugrab. I shout while throwing another Dart. If you do this, that means you're gonna shoot at a target engaged in melee with one of your companion. You might want to reconsider.

Their morale not failing the lizardmen attack the adventurers; with one of them stabbing Jamdak in the shoulder! The dwarven warrior is strong though and continues to fight, striking back causing another small wound. Again Sir Pelandres misses but Ugrab severly wounds Rattlehead's opponent. Adoven is too slow to be able to finish the monster and Rattlehead is too busy dodging the attacks to be able to deal an effective blow.
Retaking the initiative, the adventurers go for the kill again. Distracted by Ugrab and Rattlehead's strikes, the lizardman do not see big dumb Adoven swing his bastard sword. He chops off his foes' legs in one savage swoop. Frustrated, Jamdak waits for his opponent to lunge for him and splits the lizardman's skull in half with his handaxe. The last two lizardmen jump on Sir Pelandres who hasn't been able to do much more than protect himself. He receives one nasty hit between his armor's plates while the other creature's spear pierces through his shining armor and hit him viciously in the chest. The valorous knight is a strong warrior and will keep on fighting but it will take him many weeks to recover from these grievious wounds.
Emboldened by their success against Sir Pelandres, the two remaining lizardmen rapidly strikes at him again with their spear. But this time, the knight wisely protects himself behind shield emblazoned with the White Tower of Tashal. All miss their target except for Jamdak who again inflicts minor damages but Adoven's grip on his weapon slips and his bastard sword goes flying and drops 20 feet or so away in the murky waters of the swamp.
The melee dissolves into a chaotic mess with the adventurers jumping on the remaining creatures with mud and stinky water sprayed high into the air. Almost everybody misses, with Adoven, having lost his only melee weapon, trying to pummel one of the monsters to death. Only the shortish Jamdak manages to squeeze through the flurry of blades, spears, fists, fangs and claws to disembowel one of the lizard by hacking again and again with his now bloodied handaxe. During this time, Beltyne is fairly content to watch the chaotic brawl from afar, comfortably seated on Lombdas' corpse in order to keep his robes and arse dry.
The last remaining lizardman, the biggest one and probably the chief, doesn't back down and grapple Sir Pelandres. As they both fall down in the grey, opaque waters, the lizardman impales the knight on his spear. The foul creatures' grin of triumph does not last for long as brave Sir Pelandres advances on the spear shaft, blood gushing out in the waters, until he reaches the now terrorized creatures and plunges Lightbringer through its mouth and the back of its skull.
Sir Pelandres collapses to the side. His head underneath the water which are now crimson with blood. You are not sure he is still alive.
