Furious, the halfling throws caution to the proverbial wind and rush onwards.

First move to J8. Second move includes an athletics of 13 (so, 2,6 squares of jumping possible) to D8
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4581945/
Assuming the darkness doesn't force me to move slower or increase the difficulty of the jump.
That'd be fun

[Melblen_Cairn]

Forging ahead in the darkness, Theo times the jump right and clears where the hole should have been. It is difficult to discern where the goblin is in the gloom.

Grumbling to himself, Galadren races back the way the group had come, eventually reaching the doors that connect this area with the entry room.
Seeking to set up the same trick that the goblins had used, Galadren pulls part of the door shut, hiding behind it while he peers out and waits for the goblin to arrive, breathing heavily from his haste.

Double Move to the square just inside the doorway connecting to Room 1.  I have speed 7 and I believe it's only 13 squares, so I should make it.
Minor Action:  Open or Close one of the double doors, depending on whether we left them open or closed them behind us.
Stealth:

  (-5 from moving more than 2 squares)

[Melblen_Cairn]

Galadren moves quickly and gets behind the door to the entry chamber and he hears a slight sound of stone slowly grinding together from the other side.

Tulugaq steps into the darkened hallway and comes to the edge of the first pit. He clearly sees the prone form of Shandien below in a pile of mushrooms and dirt. Of the goblins there is no sign ahead in the darkness.

Shandien stands, his breath becoming short and weak; however he intends to hold his own weight and gathers his strength to brave on.

Move: Stand from Prone
Standard: Second Wind (-1 Healing Surge, +7 HP)

Saving Throw: This is just terrible

[VennDygrem]

Without the capacity to see, Dunor retrieves a sunrod and strikes it, illuminating the hallway. He hoped that the sounds he heard were his allies running to the entry way to catch up to the other goblin Shandien shouted about.

He then looks in the direction his prey escaped to... and steps to the square he just vacated. Dropping the sunrod, Dunor regrips his weapon with his off-hand, and glares down at the creature in challenge as he whips the weapon up at him.

(click to show/hide)

Dunor takes a minor action to retrieve a sunrod, then a standard to activate it. Depending on what Dunor sees, I may spend move and my action point to catch up to the goblin, but I'd like the updated map before I choose, if it's not too much trouble. As a move action, Dunor shifts to C9. As a free action, he drops the sunrod, and then uses an action point to attack Kon. Seems like a waste, but I'd rather catch him before he can make it to any other goblins.

Dual Strike so I can mark him.
Attack: 1d20(15)+7=22
Damage: 1d6(4)+2=6 damage, and hit or miss I mark Kon until the end of my next turn.

If Kon tries to shift (or attack someone who isn't me, in which case he takes a -2 penalty), then I make a Combat Challenge attack as an Immediate Interrupt. If he tries to make a ranged attack while adjacent to me, or move without shifting, I make the same basic attack anyway:

(click to show/hide)

Attack: 1d20(20)+7 *crit*
Damage: 1d6+5=11 damage (maxed due to crit)

[Melblen_Cairn]

Kon tries to fall away from the swords second blade but is too slow in the sudden flare of light and stumbles back with another wound dripping blood. "Ahhh! Help me you fools!" he shouts out grabbing the small sword belted to his hip and slashes out at Dunor with it. The feeble attack is turned aside easily and as the goblin begins to back-peddle  Dunor's other blade comes around to skewer the goblin through the gut and lifts the creature from the floor. The goblin slides down the blade, legs jerking in spasms. The blade rips free and Kon collapses to the stone in a heap unmoving.

In the corner behind the goblin, Dunor sees Dalanath leaning against the wall casually, nodding in approval of the big warrior's lethality.

(click to show/hide)

Minor Action = Draw short sword
Standard Action = Short Sword attack on Dunor [vs. AC] (1d20+6=12, 1d6+2=4)
Move Action = Shift
Dunor's Immediate Interrupt hits and Kon dies.

Gom turns at the top of the stairs with the door open at the sound of the shout from the swordmage below and see the open door framing Tanthalus' form. He levels his tiny crossbow and fires. the bolt whizzes in on the unsuspecting cleric and slams into the Elf. Then runs off again across the entry chamber and flings the door open revealing Galadren cutting off the route back.

(click to show/hide)

Standard Action = Hand Crossbow attack on Tanthalus [vs. AC] (1d20+9=29, 1d6+4=5), Critical! Full damage is 10.
Move Action = Runs to C1 (Grants Combat Advantage again until the BoNT)
Minor Action = Open adjacent door.

The stairs are difficult terrain. To go up them will cost 2 squares of movement instead of 1 for each square.

Realizing the extent of pain that his compatriot is in, Tanthalus moves back to administer aid.

I had everything planned out but then Shandien didn't go anywhere.
Oh well, I should have actually said that I had a plan.

[Inspectre]

Lips splitting into a grin as the goblin nearly crashes through the door right into him, Galadren gives him a greeting nod as he slides back and raises his crossbow.

"Bozzvek."

Galadren repeats as he takes aim and fires at his quarry, already a new bolt in his hand to slide into place as soon as the first one leaves.

Tulugaq steps back a few feet and leaps across the span at a run.

(click to show/hide)

With a roll of 11 you would not have made it across standing near the pit. So I had to give you a two square running start but to do that would have ended your move over the pit under the normal 6 square move. The only option was to go back the two squares and take the jump at a run which grants a combat advantage until the start of your next turn. Since there are no goblins in the immediate area, I figured it was an acceptable change within the context of your post.

for a total of 10 dmg.
if I'm able (if I can see and reach him). If not, that's my next attack roll

[Melblen_Cairn]

Theo surges ahead stepping over the skewered goblin. The room around the corner has flickering light in it, as if by torch or lantern. Two stone sarcophagus are seen at the lights edge and shadows are thrown everywhere on the walls. Putting his back to the corner looking for more goblins as lightning dances across his small hands, Mister Munroe is not disappointed when a hobgoblin pops up from behind one large coffin leveling a crossbow and fires, the bolt scratching a line of blood. The sorcerer's response is swift but the solid sarcophagus in front of the attacker has a large chunk blasted from it much to the shock of the one behind it.

(click to show/hide)

Knerug was delaying until an enemy rounded the corner.
Move Action = Stand from Prone behind stone coffin.
Standard Action = Crossbow attack on Thespias [vs. AC, from delayed turn until someone moved around the corner] (1d20+2=19), 4 base damage.

What we have here is a delay in response to the move. Then I was treating Theo's attack as readied which misses solely due to the cover.

"My gratitude," said Shadien to Tanthalus. "Let's return to the others. I doubt we will be able to catch the goblin now. Hopefully, our allies heard my shout."

Move: Run to the space behind the left door
Minor: Opens door
Move: Run as far as possible up the stairs

Note: Shandien still think that the goblin is heading for the right door in the entry room, which is why he said what he said.

[Melblen_Cairn]

Taking the stairs several at a time, Shandien bounds after the goblin.

The second move action will get you about halfway up the stairs. Next turn a double move will get you to the top of the stairs.

Dunor mutters to his ally, "Dammit, Theo, we should wait for the others... Fall back!"

The warrior holds his position and waits to see what happens.

(click to show/hide)

I'm not sure if I can reach down into an adjacent square and pick something up, or if I have to be in the same square. I'd imagine so since you can manipulate objects, like levers or doors, that are in adjacent squares. I'm even less sure if I were to pick up the sunrod, if I can lean around the corner to toss the light, and imagine I have to actually move in order to throw the thing with anything resembling accuracy. That's probably a bit much.

For now, I'll merely ready an action to use dual strike if an enemy comes within melee range, and otherwise stick close to the wall.

(click to show/hide)

Attack: 1d20(7)+7=14
Damage: 1d6(5)+2=7
Regardless of a hit or miss, the enemy is marked. If the enemy shifts or makes an attack that doesn't include me, I can make a Combat Challenge attack as an immediate interrupt (though not on the same turn as the enemy who triggers the readied action). No matter what, they're still marked and take a -2 penalty to hit anyone but me.

If possible/required, Stealth to use the corner as cover: 1d20(7)+9=16
