Against the Storm: Luskan (Summoning shaff)

[Tanstaafl]

"Would they let us in if we were on our way to meet someone?"

She watches the guards for a moment, trying to see who they are letting in and who they are turning aside. {Spot?}

"Jonathan, i regularly come here to shop and so forth, been to the pub a couple times. So maybe they would recognize me.

And yes, they would probably let us in to if we were coming to see someone, but they will probably ask who it is, and why we are visiting them. And i dont know if we want to give them all that information.

Maybe i could say i was coming to town to do my weekly shopping and now have u 2 living with or near me so i was showing you around town so you could do the shopping in the future."

M moves forward a bit and finds a place where she can monitor the guards. The guards seem to be accepting enterence papers of some sort. Those without them seem to pay a fee, although some without them are turned back. She doubts that she can get close enough to evesdrop without being noticed. As a group in a covered wagon talks to the guards, a hobgoblin uniformed as an officer in Storm's forces sneaks towards the side of the wagon, and padlocks a chain onto the backwheel. Soldiers draw weapons and point them at the two men riding in front, and the Ogre-Mage and a Luskanite officer approach the vehicle.

"Let's get in line, we can use the shopping story and pay the addmittance fee." Mechothli sais, she keeps one eye on those approaching the wagon as she slowly moves forward (assuming the others agree with the plan - if they don't she'll stay where she is).

Ravin quickly and defensively casts haste and then casts lightning bolt down the stairs if the orcs are still climbing if not he will cast flame wall to cut them off from getting to him, hot side towards the orcs.

After either are accomplished Ravin will look towards the window and jump out casting featherfall. Then head to nearest hiding spot.

 

[shaff]

Rannos starts walking forward as to go into town using the shopping story. But as he sees the wagon incedent, which im hoping he does since hes got a "decent" spot. He stays and watches.

Ravin hastes himself and blasts the Orcs, throwing them down the stairs. He grabs his pack and feather falls out the window, only to be confronted with two angry Orcs in front of him, who were waiting below the window. They begin beating him with big iron clubs, one hitting him in the face, one hitting him in the back, and the other in the stomach. Ravin falls down at the base of the wall (35dmg, hp --> 5)

Suddenly a man with darts from the shadows and drives a longsword into the back of one of the orcs. The orc turns from Ravin in pain, just in time to see the man kick the other orc into the wall. The orcs raise their clubs, preparing to fight.

 

[DM_Matt]

Several elves leave the back of the wagon. Instead of surrendering, however, they draw swords and battle the guards. Meanwhile, archers shoot the driver and the man next to him with Xbow, and the OgreMage throws the driver off the wagon.

 

[shaff]

"Aye, this may be our chance to get in unchecked, let us go help the gaurds of this fair city, who knows what those elves have done. " With that, Rannos says to bollan, "stay", and dashes to the aid of the gaurds.

 

[Tanstaafl]

With a regretful glance at those fighting the guards, Mechothli follows Rannos.
