Lerraina would be the only one with a constant and direct line of sight to what was going on outside of the wall. Everyone else caught tiny glimpses in comparison. So far as how many of the entire group of Orcs remain, I would refer you to Lady A. I have only been working with the guard out front for purposes of the fight.

Leader trio? I always figured Keystone was just highly outspoken. If the group's looking to [i]him[/i] for guidance, that's an interesting group dynamic. Troubling, but interesting. Maybe it's his ironically charming underclass upbringing, or his ability to fell trees via styxian ass roar that's earning his position of leadership among the masses. Hell, we elected a president with fewer qualifications just recently. 

If I recall properly, Cremwise put Kyra in charge. Then again, that contract went bye-bye the same moment a bear fell out of the clear blue sky and wrecked his wagon. Perhaps this needs to be addressed IC. 

That aside, let me be clear that Keystone's opinion of the group (including Thomas) is influenced purely by IC actions. I've even got a running cheat sheet of stuff he's observed to keep his reactions consistent with character attitude and history. I should actually commend Grey his choice of character and the decisions that said character made. Keystone had only ever tried to choke out a party member that soon after meeting them once before - said character was putting the rest of the group in danger by giving away their position with constant, willful bickering about an issue of pride. 

Now, if Grey feels that the only character worth playing is one that is immediately accepted by the group without conflict of personality, as a friend and equal regardless of attitude or psychological quirk, without first proving one's self, then he is missing one hell of a roleplaying opportunity for the sake of convenience. 

IC actions will result in IC reactions from the other characters. They won't always be positive. Case in point: backing away from the group while keying up a spell, without actually telling them the intent of the casting first might be seen as an act of aggression, considering the situation. 

Speaking to this situation, though: it makes sense that a character with zero skill as a healer would try to forcefeed a potion to an unconscious person, thinking it would be helpful. It also makes sense that friends of the unconscious person will be suitably upset when she almost dies because of it. Now, if Thomas feels safer now wandering off in undead infested woods by himself in the middle of an Orc/Human armed conflict than the group, that is his decision to make.
