Spoiler

Can I get to the colonel and cast cure Wounds in one round? Or is the distance too far?

Nortar is correct. You'd be too far. Keep in mind Brytter is in the center of Spike Growth, which is currently covering about 5x5 blocks around him, and Mumbles is just outside the ring, so Mardrey would need to figure out a way to circumnavigate that terrain.

Grab a rope, toss one end to me and I will hammer throw the halfing.

If Catacombs is fine with this we can try it for sure

Can't think of anything else that's helpful right now

Actually I think my turn is spent of orc tossing. Might have to wait a turn in which case you might as well start legging it.
Maybe just grapnel your way to the Colonel.

Spoiler

Okay I would like to make my way towards the colonel then. I wanna avoid visible dangers ofc and try to move around the bushes

Mardrey bit her lip and checked her own wounds. She was bleeding but it was bearable. Pondering on what to do she decided to move forward towards the near dead colonel. She knew she had to enter the battlefield to get to him and it would take her a couple of seconds but she couldn't let the human die. She crawled out from the bushes and started running towards him with her heart pounding heavily.

I'm assuming this is a sprint to cover the distance?

Insofar as a halfling can sprint, I suppose.

Spoiler

Yes the dash action to be precise, not sure if 5e has running rules. Dash action lets you move twice your normal speed iirc

If my turn was not spent in halforc tossing I'd like to jump to the nearest tree and work out an arboreal path out of the thorned earth.

You did not use the turn. Roll Dexterity for the jump to the tree and Athletic for your ability to scale it.

Spoiler

Brytter successfully scaled the tree. I'm interpreting as only movement, so you still have an action left.

Battle Log

Bryter: He crouched, took a deep breath, and leaped to the tree near him. His clamped his arms and legs around the base of the tree and held on for dear life. He then shimmied his way up onto the branches. Thankfully, the tree is strong enough to hold his weight. He's now about 12 feet above the ground and can see the battlefield around him.

Shooting prone targets is not an easy task, so Kilur got a different idea.
The dwarf darted towards the fire, grabbed another burning stick and chunked it into the area covered by the greasy oily mess.

Roll strength for how far you throw the torch.

Something like this:)

Battle Log
+------------------+

Kilur: The dwarf ran to the fireplace and scooped up a flaming piece of wood. He charged about dozen feet and threw, with all his might, the wood toward the hunter. The wood careened through the air, landing right at the edge of the grease pool at the man's feet. A small ember caught the crease, and, within seconds, the grease ignited, racing toward the man and engulfing his clothes in flame. He's now on fire, receiving 7 points of damage.

Spoiler

Unless the Hunter figures out a way to put out the fire, he will take 2d6 damage each turn.

"I LOVE THE SMELL OF BECON IN THE MORNIN'" - Mumbles sniffed appreciatively as he shared this valuable insight with his adversary.

"Come on, your turn now. Remember: No handz, just your noggin" - he instructed the bodyguard matter-of-factly.

Spoiler

ready action: as soon as he attempts to attack/move, headbutt again

Thomas turned to the others nearby with a concerned look. "I say, do we want either of these ruffians alive?" In the meantime, he hunkered down and began preparing for a fresh assault.

Spoiler

Stay in place, kitty casts Guidance on Brytter again. Unless she got knocked off when ERYFKRAD went brachiating?
