He ignores the threat, and continues fleeing as fast he can -- which isn't fast until Tatterde's spell wears off -- even when Althaea's crossbow bolt hitting him.
[sblock=ooc]for game mechanics purposes, he only moves on his turn, of course, but you're not 'really' fighting in stop-motion. Note that hostile opponents get a +10 to their will save against intimidate attempts.[/sblock]

Teclis Stormborn

"Hey, be a sport and stay! This just started to be fun!" Teclis calls after the fleeing bandits.
He looks at the pixie. "Shall we try to follow him? He isn't that fast, and by flying, we can ignore the tents he has to avoid."

[sblock=OOC]

so, this is over and they are supposed to flee, right?
If not, Teclis can turn into tiny bird with a fly speed of 7 as a minor action.
Or he can spend an AP to fly 14 squares and still has a standard action for his knockdown area attack (Wind Burst).

Vanri looks at his allies "You think it is worth chasing some common thugs down for information?"

"After all those days traveling, it is a nice diversion. But you are right, either they are as incompetent and worthless as they seem, or they try to lure us into a trap."

The black globe Tatterdemalion summoned collapses again and winks out. The pixie shrugs, weighing the entertainment value of catching a thief versus the effort required to do so.

"It hardly matters," she opines. "They'll probably be dead in another few years anyway. Lets just do what we came to do."

Althaea Ripace

Althaea loads up another shot almost reflexively, then pauses and lowers her crossbow. "Hmm," she sighs as her target disappears among the tents, "I suppose you are correct." She unloads the bolt from her crossbow and discharges the empty shot towards the ground. "I wonder what they attacked us for; I don't believe it was simply an attempted thievery. I imagine they could have attacked quite a few less capable citizens if they were looking for coin."

Silas sniffs and cleans off some mud from his clothes. Immaterial. If it was a trap, the mastermind will show their hand again. If it was desperation, we have driven them out. Pondering here will do us little good other than get us dirty. Let us be off.

Soril

The dragonborn stands and watches as the thugs run off, his blade dripping bits of liquid fire onto the ground. He shakes it and the flames flare up, then the weapon disappears. Walking through the mud back to the others he nods to Silas. "Maybe our patron wasn't the only one who knew we were coming. Let's go find her. We can deal with these whelps later."

"We're rich," Tatterdemalion reminds Althaea. "They could murder random people walking by for years and not get the kind of money one of us has. They took a chance, and they lost..."

She resumes her lightly zigzaggy flight down the avenue.

"Even if it was a trap, I doubt they learned much of us other than we are capable of defending ourselves." Vanri mutters.

The swordmage cleans his blade on the cloak of one of the fallen bandits before sheathing it and tying the peace knot to secure it. He starts to walk away, then stops.

"Perhaps we can learn a bit from the bodies of the fallen?"

OOC:

Vanri will search the dead bodies looking for any peculiar or interesting items, tattoos or any identifying features
