OOC:
Ok, so if I have this correctly, Bog has run off to seek out Iustus' guards, but the rest of you (Swarley, Rose, Corvoso, Slammer) are all with the body snatchers. Who is Rose bracing herself against? Also, with the exceptions of Slammer and Bog, I'm considering everyone "nearby" for the sake of distance.
The released figures shamble off the cart, and in the sun appear a sickly yellow, even a little bloated. The silent figures seem to be communicating with them via some kind of sign language, and once the "discussion" ends, the newly liberated figures turn and face the group. Sunken eyes stare you down and bared teeth signal a less than friendly intent.

"You see, complete transparency. Here is our work, to greet you fact to face," says Barsk mockingly.
OOC:
Roll for initiative

Corvoso cruelly fingers his blade, ready.

Rolls

Initiative - (1d20+5)

(17) + 5 = 22

Just meant she was setting her shield on her arm, getting ready for battle.

Edit: she doesn't actually have a shield. She was drawing her spear.
Rose smiles, their foe has revealed his evil and her path is clear.

Swarley assumes an aggressive monk stance, spreading his legs sideways and dropping his body low to the ground with both his fists pulled in close to his sides. He matches Rose's smile and begins a series of deep, slow breaths.

Rolls

Initiative - (1d20+5)

(2) + 5 = 7

I'm not sure if I'll be in the fight or not, but I'll roll anyway

Just to lay out the initiative order:
1) Corvoso
2) Rose
3) Cloaked figures
4) Bog
5) Barsk
6) Swarley (assuming my 18 dex is higher than the shambling dudes)
7) Freed figures

Corvoso draws the much fingered blade and drives it into the squishy bits of the chatty necromancer.

Edit: should be +5 damage on that

Attack - (1d20+5, 1d8)

1d20+5 : (8) + 5 = 13

1d8 : (1) = 1

OOC:
Rose invokes the Sun domain.
[ +- ] Sun/Anti-undead domain
Rose spins her spear above her head, casting a protective shell around herself and her two remaining allies, then leaps forward to engage the closest of the shambling creatures.
[ +- ] Shield of Faith
OOC:
Not sure if that's all my actions, or if I'm also permitted an attack. Is an invocation an action?
May 10, 2017 4:13 am
OOC:
If I'm reading the rules correctly, Invocation is a quick action. From what you have presented here, it looks like that's everything. You get a standard action, a move action, and a quick action. Free actions are also available. I'm taking this information from the Combat section of the SRD. More experienced players might be able to correct or confirm this as needed.
OOC:
Miss on Barsk, but you're in close now.
The cloaked figures seem a bit weary as what is unfolding as Rose reveals herself to be a magic-user of some kind, and dazzles the people with a clear view. However, the quickly scurry over to the cart and appear to be making preparations to leave.
May 13, 2017 4:00 am
OOC:
I'm going to guess that Bog is probably still running to get help.
Barsk looks his assailant in the eye as all expression leaves his face and he himself looks like a corpse. He grabs Corvoso and continues staring eye to eye and let's loose wave of flames.
OOC:
Corovoso takes 8 fire damage.[/ooc

[ooc]Unless I'm mistaken, Swarley's up.

Swarley looks to the cloaked figures trying to abscond with their cart, then to Corvoso as he gets engulfed in flames, then back to the cart. He bares his teeth in indecision and growls. Taking a running leap, he soars through the air like a hurled rock and aims a flying punch to Barsk.
OOC:
Move to engage, Dutiful Guardian opening attack, then move to disengage as a free action from Leaf on Wind. If it hits, Corvoso can pop free from Barsk automatically.

Also just to mention this; as a Monk my AC is going to fluctuate every turn based on the form I'm attacking with so I'll keep my character sheet updated every time I post to reflect this, and Rose's +1 from Shield of Faith is in there, too.

Wow, those were some weak rolls :(

The four figures stumble forward and reach out for Rose, paying no heed to the cloaked figures behind them, or to Barsk, seemingly on his own. As the figures close they overwhelm each other and end up missing their target, barely.

I'll assume Corvoso has taken a defensive stance and is holding a prepared action in case of something... Rose is up.
As the battle begins, a smell from the freed people begins to assail you. It's a pungent odor that lingers in a way that nothing should. You'd swear it was comparable to rancid meat, but there's a battlefield nearby...

OOC:
Sorry, missed that Initiative clock had turned over
Corvoso hisses at the fire and lashes out with his dagger.

Rolls

Dagger attack, with sneak attack - (1d20+5, 1d8, 1d6)

1d20+5 : (1) + 5 = 6

1d8 : (3) = 3

1d6 : (2) = 2

OOC:
No worries
Corvoso swings his blade at his foe, but misses badly, and loses his balance.
OOC:
I'm going to say that there's no issue with Corovos, but the fumble will cost him an attack of oppurtunity if Barsk seeks to disengage. Rose is up

OOC:
Has the escalation die ticked over?
May 22, 2017 1:08 am
OOC:
I'm going to say, "no". The battle hasn't really swung in favor of the party at this point. If anything the opposite, but the bad guys don't get one. We'll see after next round.

Rose strikes out at the closest shambling figure with her spear.

Rolls

melee attack - (1d20+4)

(1) + 4 = 5
