My mistake with Relle!
A pretty efficient round! Trogs are clear, Dak is across, Ranto starts to cross and of course gets stuck halfway across...
More Trogs up front!

If any of the Dark Jedi fail to kill their trogs, Rand will Grip one of them.
I want to say that I do not think that Chunn will be able to make it across the ropes. If he does manage it, I believe he should come with us. However, no more air for him. He can tough it out or die. Right now he would serve his purpose as sacrificial lamb all that well.
"Of course you shall have some tax relief!" says Rivas. "Your family will need it with their new situation."
"New situation?" says the wretched man
"Indeed!" says Rivas, and gestures forwards.
One of Rivas' bodyguards activates his electrostaff, the ends charging with deadly power. He gives it a fancy twirl and jabs it into the man, causing him to cry out in agony as he dies.
"See that his family gets a bereavement relief," says Rivas. "Anyone else want to claim relief just because times are hard? I can show you how much harder times can be! That man was weak. If he was any sort of man, he would never have been injured in the first place. The weak perish! The strong survive!"
That gets a loud cheer- though whether from enthusiasm or the desire not to be murdered you are unsure.
But your observant eye catches someone else entering the throne room at the top of the steps, and your heart skips a beat. He's wearing a grey tunic with insignia of rank on his left chest.
A Bureau Agent! Harbinger of the death squads that have been wiping out every Dark Sider in the fringes of the Republic. TO see one is to see your doom... what the hell is one doing this far out? He can;t have any jurisdiction here...
Yeah, you'll need to get pretty close to do that. The cabinets are filled to the brim with weapons and armour and scalps... no, actually entire heads and the like. From a distance it is a jumble.
The agent is standing at the top of the room, looking around. Like he is looking for something? Agents come in two types- the fit, military types and the ones that look like they belong in an office. This is the latter. He has thin features and tired looking sunken eyes. Pale too- he looks almost sick.
Damn bad luck that he's come just as you have.
But you aren't sure you believe in luck.
5-5 switches initiative to them.
Not sure what Rianna is swapping for so I cannot do that. But she's missed anyway so all's well!
Sadly, Ranto is starting to panic and cannot advance.
And now Chunn is on the rope as well... and is very quickly in trouble as indeed his Agility is for crap!
