3+1=4 initiative roll. So I'll watch the carnage for now.

I hope somebody rolls high enough to bring him down, this round. I'm not keen to take dragon/snake-like attacks!

Tommy burns a luck point to hit on 13. I believe everyone else in the front row hits without burning luck. Takes the shots if you'd like, but there's a high chance of hitting an ally. Not a simple "you miss his AC, so you hit your friend" but in that ballpark. You mean for next round or in...

For the surprise round, I don't recall if Tommy rolled the one or two for damage so I'll re-roll it: 6 damage (or if you want, I did a coin flip and that gave him the 1 damage result). I'll expend luck to up the to-hit to whatever it needs to be to connect. It's at 12 right now with the modifier for...

Looks like that second row is going to get crowded. Travis rolls a 11-3=8 agility check to be in the second row with his pole-ish weapon. If that gives him a strike, he rolls a 10 to hit. Tommy rolls a 10 to hit the lone guard, or if he spots someone on the way, he'll swing there (really not buying ...

My character lineup is: Tommy with the long sword, then Travis with the pitchfork, then Lala with the ranged weapons. Tommy rolls a 17 for his agility check. Before he runs to close to melee he is trying to see if the throwing star came from another direction than from the lone hallway guard. Lala i...

Grab some spears and let's raid the castle! How about we try the grappling hook+rope on the wall to circumvent the gate or maybe a few of the stronger/agile characters will do this to get the drop on the guard(s) at the gate? In any case, let's not waste too much more time after suiting up. Once we ...

I was thinking we'd need either Ninnim or Ward to give us the directions to the place, but maybe it's more obvious from the streets? As far as special dress for getting in, maybe the toughs in the street had something in common that set them apart from everyone else? Maybe there is a secret code tha...

(ooc: Oooh, hehehe!) Lala is already on edge from losing her childhood friend - Flea - but practically jumps out of her skin at Sanitor's abrupt entrance, "Damn you! How many times have I told you not to sneak up on me?" She stomps on Sanitor's shoe for not the first and probably not the l...

I'm down for interrogating Ward. I'm not sure we should take him back to the Boot in that case, but maybe back to Ninnim's. Did Ninnim clear out as soon as we entered the Cloister or is he somewhere nearby? I agree that we should figure out anything we can from the keys, papers, as well as from Ward...

Travis says, "We also want no more blood shed here. We'll release you, Matron, as soon as we're outside of the Cloister; but the goon stays with us until we're out of sight of this establishment. Do we have a deal?" Travis asks this as much to his comrades as to the Matron.

"Let's get the hell out of here!" Tommy yells. Travis and Tommy bum rush to where Lala is standing, each making an attack at an assailant who might be in the path. The rolls have gone sour, I'm afraid. 6 for Travis to miss, 1 for Tommy to continue his string of lousy luck (3 on the fumble ...

Travis gives out another shout as it appears the hostage situation might not take. "You may not believe me, but the man in this office knows to fear the Fork of the Favela! It has already claimed two lives today!" He presses the seemingly god or demon guided farm implement closer to the Ma...

Also, Gnomeboy, does shifting gears mean some of the other employees are drawing weapons or moving in as if to attack? If yes, Lala will change her move and aim for one of them to "make an example." To hit 10+1=11 and 1 damage. If she misses she'll act as if the shot was purposefully off (...

We could use those attack rolls from Fenris as grappling checks? Tommy shouts, "Give 'em the Boot!" He rushes to help pin the goon and adds +2 to the check on the goon with an agi check = 17. Travis thrusts his pitchfork up close to the Matron's face, "Everyone hold it or your Matron ...

I think I might have been stretching how believably we'd be able to coordinate as a fighting force anyway, so I don't mind (and I think it's pretty hilarious). I'll wait for gnomeboy's adjudication. Also, I was hinting at firing off a shot with Kylie at that security guard on the stairs. If I'm read...

Haha, so long finesse. We are bar hooligans, right?

16+1=17 initiative roll if we didn't get surprise (Fenris surprised me, so haha, maybe?).

I'm jumping on the assumption that Gunnar mentions the presence of the goon to Brun and Travis in that huddle. Travis knows this is the time to make a move or it's going to get entirely out of hand. He quickly outlines the plan to make hostages of the goon and the manager. If anyone has detected the...

I think we lose our shot if we go out into the courtyard, if we can even get out there. I think we have a 2-1 advantage on the room with the manager and the thug. The hope is that gives us the leverage we need to get a look at whether Other Molly is here. I'm gambling on the idea of Travis having sl...

(Waiting for Fenris to respond and then I say we make a move on that room with the recognized thug and manager. The rest of the party takes some sort of defensive circle in whatever area they are in, while slowly making their way to the manager. Taking the manager hostage, if successful and the empl...

...missed the fact that our gang (we ARE kinda a gang, yes?) instigated the initial brawl at the Favela. I thought we just walked into a riot outside the Taphouse, lol. Time to turn up the heat a bit! lol Actually, you were challenged to leave and it erupted. The Lords of Deepwater gang were the in...

(ooc: Meaning fully grasped. Yeah, we need to make a move now or we're about to be taken on one by one. I say we corner the manager and try to use her as a hostage. What do you say, Fenris and Jeff?)

Tommy and Lala are quick to be led on by their one-use suitors. Travis, somewhat out of bitterness because he hasn't been chosen, measures up the employees. He looks at the strapping young lad leading Lala to a room. He takes in the body type of the young man. Is he built in a softly-toned pleasing ...

Symptoms may linger.

My characters are watching the other party members and are ready to act on their decisions (based on not noticing anything in particular).

Maybe the flattering words don't quite fit or Tommy can sense some of his friends tensing up and this breaks the spell the temporary companion has held on him. He excuses himself from his company, for a moment, he promises, and moves over to join Travis, Gunnar, and Brun. Travis is standing with Gun...
