"Apologies for not following proper procedure, but there wasn't time," Daos answers. Also, nobody had mentioned it. He would have thought that Serpentine at least would have known this. He adds, "What sort of crisis?"

A loud thumping sound comes from the end of the hall before she can answer. "Sek raza dahl Bahamut, they must have heard the Alarm! Be ready for a fight!"
"A fight with what?" Valerie asks, before the steel door flies across the room and nearly hits her. Two lanky, green limbs reach through the empty doorframe.
"Trolls, that's what!" the guard says, as she readies her stance.
"Trolls? How did they get in the school?" Meine asks, drawing her sword. The guard scoffs.
"I wish I knew. They mentioned it so casually. 'Oh, by the way, there are trolls loose in the school, so if anyone teleports in unexpectedly, tell them to come back later.'"

As Valerie gets out her bow, the two Trolls crawl into the chamber and each growl hungrily at the group.
"We'll handle the one on the right!" the guard cries, charging at it with her greatsword.

Caelynn pulls out her short bow, and fires at the first troll.

Acting quickly, Caelynn nocks and fires an arrow at the troll, but it just bounces off its tough skin. It roars at her, then charges, swinging its claws and hitting her right in the weakness in her armor. With its other arm, it strikes Daos with a force so powerful even his armoring spell can't block it. It then lunges downward to bite at Caelynn, but she dodges its vicious fangs.
The first guard is not so lucky, taking the full brunt of the other Troll's attacks. Though she looks injured, she grits her teeth and swings her greatsword at the monster, although it clangs helplessly against its skin. The second rushes to help her, burying his greatsword deep in the Troll's skin. He tries to plunge it deeper as it roars in pain, but he only manages to lose his grip and fall onto the floor.
"Stop its regeneration!" he calls to the other guard, who points her finger at the Troll. A blast of fire comes out of it, to Meine and Valerie's surprise, but the spell sails over the beast's head.
Noticing that the Troll is distracted by Daos and Caelynn, Valerie looses an arrow into a vulnerable spot, dealing significant damage. Meine tries to rush at the Troll with her sword, but whiffs. Finally, Selena casts a spell that Daos is unfamiliar with--one that briefly surrounds her skin with a green glow.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Caelynn fires her bow at Troll 1, missing. Troll 1 claws Caelynn, critically hitting for 17 damage, then swipes at Daos, hitting for 14 damage. It tries to bite Caelynn, but misses. Troll 2 ravages Golden Knight 1 with two claw attacks and a bite, dealing 26 damage total. Golden Knights 1 and 2 make two greatsword attacks at Troll 2. The first misses twice, and the second hits for 14 damage, then fumbles and falls prone. Golden Knight 3 casts Fire Bolt, but misses. Valerie Sneak Attacks Troll 1, hitting and dealing 17 damage. Daos hits Troll 1 with Magic Missile, dealing 10 damage. Meine attacks Troll 1, missing. Selena casts Achlys' Venom Skin.

"And how do we do that?" asks Daos, now half-dead after only a single strike. He tries to blast the troll with Snilloc’s Snowball Swarm, assuming he lives long enough to finish the spell.
====================
Daos casts Snilloc’s Snowball Swarm on Troll 01 (3d6): 2,4,2 = 8 cold damage (half if saved). He'll sculpt the spell to only hit the troll and not any friendlies in range. SHzov7mK3d6 3d6

Caelynn was not looking good after a single hit from the troll, but that doesn't stop her from trying to fire another arrow at the first troll.

"Fire damage! Or Acid!" the guard cries, answering Daos' question. Unfortunately, he realizes he doesn't have any fire or acid spells. Luckily, he sees Miss Serpentine magically form a ball of acid in her hands, ready to hurl at the Troll once it's wounded.
With Meine distracting the Troll, Caelynn is able to take it by surprise, striking a powerful blow. It roars at her as its injuries close up. It looks like it's going to charge her, but noticing Meine standing close, ready to strike, it changes its mind. It claws at Meine and lunges in for a bite attack, but she blocks the blows with her shield and armor.
The other Troll, also regenerating, slashes at the fallen guard. He protects himself from the first attack by summoning a purple shield, but the bite and second claw push through the magic barrier. He stands up and swings his greatsword at the beast, as the first guard retreats, but his attacks bounce off the Troll's thick skin.
"Duck!" the third guard cries, as she casts a spell, blasting a cone of fire at the Troll. She aims high to avoid her ally, but that allows the Troll to dodge the brunt of the spell. What few flames lap its skin barely seem to do any damage.
Meanwhile, Valerie and Meine work in unison to strike the Troll with a pair of attacks, and Daos' snowball spell hits everywhere except where Meine is standing, barraging the Troll with icy magic. Selena throws her acid spell at the Troll, and it seeps into its wounds. Oddly enough, it seems to resist the acid, somehow.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Caelynn Sneak Attacks Troll 1, hitting for 18 damage. Troll 1 automatically regenerates. It regains 10 hp. It then attacks Meine, missing with its two claws and bite. Troll 2 automatically regenerates. It regains 10 hp. It then attacks Golden Knight 2 with advantage (prone), who casts Shield as a reaction. It misses a claw attack, then hits another claw attack for 8 damage, and a bite attack for 5 damage. Golden Knight 1 disengages and moves 30 ft away from Troll 2. Golden Knight 2 stands up and misses twice with his greatsword. Golden Knight 3 casts Burning Hands. Troll 1 makes its saving throw and takes 11/4 = 2 fire damage. Valerie Sneak Attacks Troll 1, hitting for 17 damage. Daos casts Snilloc's Snowball Swarm. The Troll fails its saving throw and takes 8 cold damage. Meine hits Troll 1, dealing 8 damage. Selena casts Acid Splash. The Troll fails its save and takes 16/2 = 8 acid damage.

"You sure about that?" Daos asks, noting that neither fire nor acid seem particularly effective against these creatures. He then switches back to magical missiles, empowering the spell further this time.

"I don't think the acid is working," Caelynn says as she fired another arrow.

"What? That's ridiculous," the guard says as one of Caelynn's arrows sails over the Troll's head. "It's supposed to keep them from healing." Though Miss Serpentine's acid and the guards' fire didn't harm the Trolls very much, their regeneration is visibly failing--the new skin that grows to cover their wounds is burnt or melted.
The first Troll continues its assault on Meine. It manages to strike a powerful blows with its claws, but its biting lunge is knocked away when Meine bashes her shield into it, knocking out a few teeth. The second Troll attacks the guard next to it, whose magical shield is still floating next to him. He dodges one claw attack and blocks the other, but the Troll's bite cuts deep into his flesh. In retaliations, he hits back with two slashes of his sword, and the other guards blast fire into the wounds--though it still seems to resist the spells.
While Valerie misses her attack on the Troll, Daos and Meine hit it with a pair of powerful attacks. The Troll looks like it's starting to fall apart. Its regeneration starts to come into effect, but another acid attack from Miss Serpentine puts an end to that. Its arms and skin start to melt and disintegrate, and it roars in pain.
"Good job! It's as good as dead, now," the guard says. "Can we get some help with this one, now?"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Caelynn Sneak Attacks Troll 1, but misses. Troll 1 attacks Meine. It misses the first claw, hits the second for 15 slashing damage, and fumbles, allowing Meine to strike it with her shield for 4 bludgeoning damage. Troll 2 attacks Golden Knight 2. It misses the claw attacks, and hits with a bite for 7 piercing damage. Golden Knight 1 casts Fire Bolt, hitting the Troll for 9/2 = 4 fire damage. Golden Knight 2 attacks the Troll with his greatsword, hitting twice and dealing 16 slashing damage. Golden Knight 3 casts Fire Bolt, hitting the Troll for 11/2 = 5 fire damage. Valerie Sneak Attacks Troll 1, but misses. Daos casts Magic Missile, dealing 12 force damage to Troll 1. Meine hits Troll 1, dealing 12 slashing damage. Selena casts Acid Splash, dealing 14/2 = 7 acid damage to Troll 1.
