Default RE: Bumblebee

The narrow tunnel boomed with the sound of battle. The dwarf grunted with effort as blow after blow by the ogres crashed down upon his armor. The man, bracing himself against the wall on the dwarf's right, held his ground against the ogres push to surround the two. Thin rivulets of viscous blood already were streaming down the floor behind the pair, freed from the already fallen ogres that heaped the passage way. Oddly, many of the dead sported small arrows tucked under an arm, or protruding from a soft neck.
Bumblebee slipped out of the shadowed recess for a moment, loosing a dart-like arrow at an ogre's exposed leg. It whistled in and found the artery on the giant's inner thigh. Already wounded from the fierce battle, the mountainous creature crumpled to the bloody floor. Without hesitation, the brownie leapt across the width of the passage to the opposite wall. Inhaling deeply, he imagined the varying shadows to be thick and real, drawing them too himself with the inhaled breath. Sighting along the arrow's length, the next one was away to find its target.
((OOC
Bumblebee made a trip into the Haven mine with a pair of fighters. I oocly did not expect him to be a large contributor but was complete taken aback by the damage he dealth. He snuck along and played the part of "looter." After a few initial battles, though, I got the hang of moving to within sneak attack range. The little fellow dealt quite a bit of damage!
It was a good RP session and Bumblebee really held his own. He even got to slip a potion the man when he slipped to -7 hp. Lots of sneaking, emoting about shooting arrows from the flank, etc.
This trip, though not terribly deep into the mine, was a huge confidence boost to Bumblebee ICly. He is beginning to understand how to mix stealth into combat.
