This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

"I owe you one!" Caden shouts over his shoulder to Alric as he makes his way out of the brawl.

Once Caden is well clear of the fighting he will reevaluate the situation and see if he can discern the cause of the trouble. He will also find a spot to sit for a spell and take a breather.

Bright Leaf surveys the melee spots Caden and Hana and waves them over.

Mr. Kent

"With you in a moment!" Hanalee cheers to Bright Leaf as she soaks up the adoration of the crowd. "HaHAHH!" she yells, continuing to pound on the tough opponent.

Artifacts of Amber

If Caden has made it clear he leaps to assist Hanalee, not that she needs it. He mainly is trying to do what he can to defuse and end the brawl as it winds down. If he notices anyone in dire need of medical aid, he will call that out to the rest of the group.

He will probably continue these actions unless their is some big change.

Bright Feather stamps her foot and gives Caden and Hana a withering glare...and hisses angrily.. "come here already before you both make more work for Karni and myself".

Caden notices Bright Leaf and decides he will head in her direction instead.

(OOC) When Karni arrives her and Bright Feather will start their plan...Dragoner remember you can stack effects on top of the main effect just like I plan to do. Just waiting on you Opa.:)

Karni arrives slightly out of breath. "So what is the plan? I was thinking of thaumaturgy, I can cause my voice to boom."

OoC: Marleycat, feel free to advise me on what spells I should use. :)

(OoC) I make a clap, you start with thaumaturgy with the stern admonishment, I add a soft golden light around you and add unearthly sounds at your break points and you add a little temblor and whatnot when appropriate and I add another clap or unearthly sound at the same time. It's doable within both our singular cantrips working in concert nothing else needed. Thank God she knows about clerical magic.:)

Gives Karni a frustrated shake of her head..."Ok, I make a clap or unusual sound or ordor to make people focus on you..you do your sermon voice and I will put some lights around you to focus them and then visual and audio counterpoints to your speech and maybe you shake the earth a bit....."

OoC: I could do a light on a holy symbol, or a command, if someone tries to attack.

(OoC): If we work this right neither of us should have to use any actual spell slots beyond whatever you feel needs healing if that. I could put a glow or shimmering lights around your holy symbol if you prefer though...but if we have to use actual spells Command would be good or I can use Charm Person or Sleep.

OOC: Good, keep planning! FYI, each Prestidigitation & Thaumaturgy takes 1 action. You're going to have to be selective and order the effects for each round. Do note, Bright Feather, that you get a round head start, Round 44, before Karnath arrives. You therefore have an action in addition to yelling at the rest to meet up with you. Karnath, you will be free to use Thaumaturgy on Round 45.

Hanalee, thanks for your Round 43 & 44 rolls. Alric, thanks for telling me what you are doing, too. I'll call it Help, which will in turn give Hanalee advantage. Re-roll your attack rolls, Hanalee!

Caden, for Rounds 43 & 44 you sit a spell and try to use Insight to piece what you can about this melee from overhearing the crowds and watching the fighters. Give me two Insight checks, first an easy one at DC 10 (something a bit more than "drunkenness"), next an average one at DC 15 to get a more who's who.

Summary

Caden, two Insight checks.

Hanalee, roll your two attacks again, take the highest.

Alric, thanks for Helping Hanalee re-roll.

Bright Feather, any use for that round 44 action? Or perhaps attempt a Ready action with it? (Turn your action into a triggered reaction, such as "As soon as Karnath arrives to the brawl...")

Karnath, keep running! BTW, any bonus actions?

Main Street Brawl, Round 43

And another one of the two last regular guys goes down! The crowd cheers the bloodsport, the brutality whipping them into a frenzy of shouts. Hanalee's big guys returns a mighty shot of his own to the ribs (Hanalee takes 3 damage). Alric is lucking out that no one is taking him as a serious combatant, now that he isn't taunting.

Main Street Brawl, Round 44

Shit, one of the bruisers recognizes you, Alric. And as a dwarf, he has no qualms about "hitting someone his own size." An eye squint of recognition is the only lead up before he jab-cross combos your face (Alric takes 3 damage).

A different bruiser to Hanalee's side plants one in her left kidney (Hanalee takes another 3 damage). Her previous attacker found something wrong with his neighbor and swapped targets, which basically means staying still and just angling a bit to the right. The fighters, having been in a single group for several rounds now, are tightening up into a smaller ball. Just about everyone looks worse for wear.

Caden, after a brief breather, decides to take the heat off his brave buddy. He walks in nonchalantly and pommel shots with his dagger the dwarf antagonist behind the ear at the very last second. It would have looked like a regular punch to the head, but seems like that dwarf has a saloon girl friend with sharp eyes. "Ooh! Cheater! He used a weapon to the back of his head, he did! You tried to kill him on the sly you bastar—"

A loud clap interrupts the din from the uptown side of the brawl.

"Alric! Hanalee! Caden! Get here now!" Bright Feather yells out just as Karnath arrived.

"Cheaters!" The crowd picks up the call of foul play. "Killers!" The rabble is roused, you are hearing the call picked up like ripples in a pond. "Assassins!" All about flash the sight and sounds of weapons being drawn, of wild (arcane? divine?) gestures being started. (I rolled a 4 on an Easy DC 10 save for the crowd to not lose their shit. It was my GM second chance at mercy, and I am so sorry...)

God help you all, here comes Round 45...

OoC: I ready an action to make as loud of a clap/noise as I'm able centered on Harni right before she starts speaking.
