About Veryadan's injuries:
Quote:

The lone Orc had circled round him, and arcing his jagged blade in a two handed grip cut the Ranger deeply on his flank. Aidwain had by this time brought down the Orc with a deeply driven arrow. Veryadan’s sword slipped from his grasp as he clutched his bleeding side. He staggered back from the Troll whose leering face now looked down on him with a sort of feral glee. The foul creature swept his club round about, catching Veryadan hard on his upper arm.

The Ranger has a long, deep gash on his left flank from the Orc blade and possibly a fractured upper left arm where the Troll whacked him. Also he is probably not conscious at the moment since he was thrown on a pile of rocks by the blow.
