You don't hear anything else from inside the Sleeping Giant. The street is empty but for the corpses of the men you killed.

Whispering to the party, Hollow says, "Should we retreat for now? Or draw them out? Not that I'm opposed to a full on assault. We have another potion if you need it Kama. "

"Two left, barred door," says Kama, reiterating what they're up against. "Don't know if there are more inside, but given the way bullies and thugs think, it's likely we saw the lot of them out on the porch."

He remains seated, slowly working some life back into his muscles. His body was resting, and it isn't quite ready to give that privilege up just yet.

"Do you think they'd be open to parley?"

A thought occurs to him. "Maybe someone needs to check the back door."

As you're discussing your options you can hear a man yelling inside, followed by a shriek and a loud thud. Something is going on inside, sounds like somebody got hurt.

"That someone will be me," growls Kama at the sound of activity within, and he picks himself up off the ground. "I'll take that potion, Hollow," he says as he heads around the eastern side of the Sleeping Giant, to the back.

Kama is assuming there is a back door, of course, and that perhaps the thugs inside haven't yet thought to bar that entrance.

Hollow, as promised, hands over the potion and Kama works his way to the other side of the building, where he does indeed find a back door. he can hear no sound coming from the other side.
Dec 4, 2015 8:23 pm
Kama down the potion, wincing at its taste. Suspecting that the cry and thud was further conflict within the building, he readies a handaxe and tries to see if the back door can be opened.

Kama easily opens the door, revealing the interior of the tavern and a very surprised thug standing right in front of him. It seems he had just thought of opening the door when Kama had opened it. You can see the other thug about 20 feet off to your left, standing over the bloody body of the barkeep. The barkeep is gasping for breath, so he is still alive, but not for long.

Going to give Party the initiative for surprising the people inside! You may all retroactively choose who had followed Kama around back and who stayed up front.

Kama had planned on throwing his handaxe, but given the close proximity he decides to use his two-handed maul instead. He steps inside the tavern to clear the doorway and sweeps his maul at the thug's legs.

OOC: Not sure how wounding to incapacitate works, but I'm trying to ensure we have at least one of them alive to interrogate.

Maul vs XBow1 - (1d20+5, 2d6+3)

Hollow unleashes an Eldritch Blast at the barred door hoping to break it down.

::Not sure if an attack roll is needed on a door, but i will include it. I'm sure damage needs to be high, but here's hoping.::

EB vs. Door - (1d20+6, 1d10+4)

Kama swings his Maul at the thugs legs, there is a loud cracking sound as the Maul connects and the thug lands on the ground holding his shattered knee.

Hollow's spell connects with the door, turning it into little more than kindling.

Xora and Wish still have a round

Wish will race through the door and across the room to attack Xbow 2 (whom I think is at the very edge of his movement).

Rapier thrust, damage - (1d20+5, 1d8+3)

Wish weaves in between the tables and thrusts his blade at the unsuspecting thug, who has his back turned, catching him in the center of his back, and slipping through and out his front. He looks in surprise at the sword and slumps to the ground.

Rolls

Wish attack (advantage) - (1d20+5)

Wish's opponent is dead and Kama's is on the ground with a broken leg. The barkeep is laying on the ground with his hands covering a wound on his stomach.

Combat over, everyone gets 50 xp

Kama checks that his opponent isn't going anywhere. So long as the thug is incapacitated and reasonably alive, he moves to the injured barkeep and works to stabilize the man.

Rolls

Medicine - (1d20)

(13) = 13

Wish attempts to stabilize the dying barkeep...

(OoC: Whoops! I wish I had reloaded the page before I did that; I could have offered to assist or ask for assistance if I'd only read that Kama had attempted medicine first.)

Kama and Wish are able to stabilize the barkeep, but his breathing is shallow and now that he's in someone's care he passes out on the floor. Still wounded but not at immediate risk of dying.

Kama sighs in relief. "We'll have to get him to the temple, or bring the Sister here," he says, absently.

He obviously has something else on his mind, however, and he leaves the barkeep to approach the thug with the broken leg. Kama binds the man's hands behind the back, and once secured rummages through his belongings to remove any weapons or items of value.
Dec 7, 2015 11:54 pm
Kama is able to tie the man's hands up and finds two daggers, a short sword, and three gold pieces on the thug.

Wish will drag the bodies into the tavern and search them.
