Fynn grabs their crowbar and scrambles to pry/bash a sufficient weapon from the nearest mattress.

As Flynnhorn struggles with the crowbar, Renaer's frame falls apart in his hands. He tries to look all cool and badass, but it was probably luck that he picked a fragile one.
He passes improvised clubs to Flynnhorn and Vinnie.

The rotten door smashes into soggy splinters as the Xanathar henchmen flee the ooze. They run straight into your ambush. The human's blackened hand still smokes as he makes a fist and the duergar reaches for his warpick.
Patience and Jodelle have ready actions. Jodelle's stealth wasn't good enough to be an unseen attacker.
Everyone else has their full turn.

Seeing that the ooze is still behind he swings with his axe at the closest thug, "It's exceptionally unfortunate you you that you've stumbled upon two misfortunes in one day perhaps it is advisable to return to the sludge you've dissipated from." Vincent is to busy talking to realy pay attention to where his axe is going.

She withdraws her bloodied blade from the thugh and feels in a winning mood.
"Hey Xanathar scum! My friend is right. Eventhough we look better than the sludge, we are way worse. Nothing will stop us for a good story."
She rapidly follows up with her blades against the same thug.
Action: Attack MH against N6
Bonus: Attack OH against N6 if he is still standing
Will apply sneak attack on the attack that first hits, with Vinnie in 5ft

Jodelle spikes the human like he was a bad story. He's out.
The duergar is tougher, and the crowding in this room is making it difficult to get into the melee.
Patience and Vinnie prove that the pen is mightier than the sword... when the sword is wielded by characters who roll threes and fours.

Fynn looks to the duergar with a soft sadness in their voice.
"Tough day at the office for you, eh? There's five of us, just one of you left, and the thing on the other side of the door is an even worse fate than dealing with us. Just seems like a bad situation, really. You probably weren't even getting paid that well, were thinking about deserting but couldn't figure out an escape plan. It's a really shame. So, uh, sorry about your situation my man."

The duergar does not mourn his fallen comrade but assumes a defensive stance ready to parry more incoming blows. He risks a quick glance backwards.
"Look fellas."
Then appends a "Ma'am" when he sees Jodelle.
"I don't want trouble. I know when I'm beat. Let me past, an' thee'll not see me again. I've always fancied workin' in the B'Gate anyhow, it has to smell better than City o' Splendours."
Renaer mutters something about the dashed cowardice of ruffians.
Again, the duergar throws a hurried glance back at the approaching gloop, and his voice rises in panic-pitch by an octave.
"What's thee say, eh? Sound like fair deal?"
The door frame smokes as a questing, oozing tendril makes its way towards you.

"I would guess that the likelihood of obtaining your freedom would be substantially increased were you to parry with the ooze." Vincent Responds, he personally doesn't want to deal with the ooze so maybe they can get this frightened Duergar to do it for them.

The duergar looks at Vinnie incredulously.
"Thee ain't serious, mate?"
He points back the way you all came with his war pick.
"That way. Behind thee. Scarper."

Vincent doesn't block the dwarves path, content to let the others decide his fate now that he's spoken his piece, however he'd hoped the dwarf would listen it could have made thing much simpler for them.
Jun 3, 2022 4:59 pm
"Hope we won't regret this, Vinnie. He might be back with half of Xanathar's guild.... but then we will all pile them up for the oozes to feed on!" she calls out the last part a bit louder, to make sure their duergar friend hears it, as she won't block his way out.

Fynn shrugs and readies their club, eyeing Krentz. "Go on, move thine arse," they say, also leaving the dwarf a path to escape. "Or lose it."

Realizing that everyone has sticks at the ready and she still has just her swords, Jodelle takes a step back, wriggling herself between Fynn and Renaer, to find a good piece of wood from the pile of broken beds, only to feel not very confident about her wooden-stick-smacking-skills.
