Bloodcove Disguise

OOC: If you are more than 5' away it is impossible to hear anything less than a shout as the crowd is yelling and cheering the fight in the water tank right now. Syldar, are you going to continue towards Lura and ask the question you previously posted?

Syldar pauses briefly to contemplate the situation. Ideally, they would like to handle this subtly. However, it appears that Lura already knows about them and is, in fact, preparing to fight. Solving this through diplomacy always seemed unlikely, especially since they could not come up with a better plan than asking Lura for the antidote out of the kindness of her heart.

"It looks like it's time to turn this into your type of party," she says to Raynucio. "Try to leave enough of Lura that we can get the antidote from her." With that bit of advice, she begins to sway her hips in a dance that draws approval from a few of the nearby patrons.

As Syldar draws her bow, a cry goes up from patrons around her. The crowd surges away from Syldar and you notice that both of Lura's bouncers have drawn swords. The crowd surges away from them too. Everyone is buffeted about by the crowd and finally find themselves in a cleared area around the aquarium.

OOC: game effect is that everyone has their weapons out and no one is considered flat-footed. We will start with normal initiative.
 

As looks at the patron who seems to have ignored him, hoping to get his attention, he sees Syldar draw her bow. Well, I guess we are going to start this thing after all... maybe blending in wouldn't hurt too much.

As the crowd begins to clear some space, Chaucer stands on his chair to give himself a clear view of the festivities like a few other patrons are doing. Hoping to not draw attention to himself, he tries to hide the movements of his hands as best he can while he draws upon the same arcane energy he used in the shop that morning.

Current effects: -

Actions - Chaucer uses a move action to stand upon his chair, and a standard action to cast Grease DC 14 or fall - aimed at Lura and the Tall Body guard. (If either has moved before Chaucer gets a chance to act, he will aim it for the tall female scary lady.) Outside of the spell, he has no weapon out, in hopes of blending in with the crowd that has cleared to watch the fight.[/Sblock]

OOC: I am envisioning the crowd pushing back into the middle of the Pit has cleared around the combatants, but that much of the crowd, pressed up against the wall, has stayed to watch the battle. It is in that crowd that I assume Chaucer is going to try and blend in for a bit. If not, let me know and I can adjust my actions...

Round 1
23- Thugs (move and ready attacks)
20- Aradra (shot is stopped by Lura's chain shirt)
17- Chaucer (casts grease)
16- Kalinn (charges Bellu and lands a solid blow while her spirits ravage Bellu)
14- Syldar (moves to G-10 and fires at a thug, but his armor stops the arrow)
13- Lura (stays down and heals Bellu for 12 pts)
9 - Bellu (lashes out at Kalinn and drops her)
8- Mandalo (heals Kalinn for 3pts)
4- Raynucio (finishes off Bellu)


Chaucer, you notice that none of the crowd is fleeing. In fact, it looks more like they are getting ready to bet on the outcome of this fight. You easily blend in and no one seems to notice your casting. Since you go before both Bellu and Lura you can cast your spell on their area. However, then they will notice you.

OOC: The line I have drawn on the map represents the edge of the crowd. The area inside is empty of people, but any movement into crowd squares is considered difficult terrain.

Thug 1 moves to J-15 and readies an attack. Thug 2 moves to N-12 and also readies an attack. Both of the women slip and fall in Chaucers grease. As he finishes casting the people surronding Chaucer shove him into the cleared area.
"If your gonna fight, ya gotta be in t' arena!" someone shouts.

OOC: Chaucer, you are now in O-9. Btw, nice success there with the grease, you just saved someone from a world of hurt from Bellu, she has pounce :)

OOC: I'm assuming Syldar's actions this round are starting to perform and drawing her bow. Let me know if there was a surprise round and she can do more.

Everyone who goes after Syldar gets +1 to hit and damage!
 

Aradra smiles again as he notices the crowd flying past him. "I guess this was never going to end peacefully. " to Kanli beside him. Taking his bow out, he aims and fires, just as he hears Chaucer finishing his chant.

OCC: as I go before Chaucer, they would have remained standing for my shot. Going to roll it normally.

Move: Drawing Bow
Standard: Fire at Lura. +8 / 1d8 +3.

Also, POUNCE?! ugh...
