Vemuz turns toward Malachi's assailant, but remembers at the last moment that Malachi can more than hold his own. Vemuz look around the room to see if anyone is threatening him. Should anyone move against him, he will respond with a fist across the jaw.

"eerg!" Malachi growls at the stinging of his nose his tusk now revealed and gleaming. He makes a grab at his attackers head hoping to hold it still so Malthas doesn't miss his next shot or else setting the clamdigger up for a Porc forehead to the nose...

(Intimidate 16+ Grapple 19+ Attack 16+)
 

Malthas,

Although you manage to not spill any of few unspilled drinks left on the bar, your swing is uncharacteristically clumsy, and the Standishtowner easily ducks the blow.

Malachi, however, grabs the man by the shoulders, drags him off his feet, and crushes the man's nose with his forehead.

Malachi,

The Standishtowner easily ducks an uncharacteristically clumsy swing by Malthas, but he cannot avoid your grappling arms; he could easily have struck you as you lunge at him, but obviously frightened, he instead tries to escape.

He isn't quick enough; you grab him by the shoulders, ignoring his feeble attempt to break your hold, and snap your forehead down into his face, crushing his nose and producing two spectacular black eyes.

Vemuz,

By now, everyone has seen your fearsome prowess; even with a broken arm, no one dares come forward. Several men, with the look of locals about them, slink out of the door, cowed by your threatening aspect.

Out of the corner of your eye, you see Malachi grab a Standishtowner by the shoulders and snap his forehead into the man's face with fairly impressive violence, easily breaking his nose and blacking his eyes.
 

As the situation seems under control, Nico will pause, bleary eyed and think for a moment...
Looking under the Table, Mr. Arfalinium will bellow Mr. Orleau! Present Yourself!'
At the drunken moans and <possible> snores that answer him, Nico will grab the drunken Jean Orleau and make for the door, scooping up the wagers and bottle of Whiskey as he goes.
Looking back, Nico will yell at Artimus 'Come on, ye scallywag!'

OoC:I assume that my 13 STR is sufficient to carry the man? I just thought of another cool use fr tenser's Floating Disk...'drunk retrieval'. D Also, if the fight is stillunder way, I will continue to attack instead, doing the above actions when I get a chance instead.
 


Malthas looks around, and (assuming) seeing the fight to be pretty much dying down, he takes a last smack at the man Malachai is holding (11+2) and then peers around to see if his barmaid is still around, or if she has fled the bar.
 

Nicodemus,

Orleau, huddled under the table and clutching an empty whiskey bottle, groans and peers cloudily up at you.

"P...p...rresen' an...an...an' ssso...b-b'r" he mumbles.

You and Artimus head out of the tavern, looking for more hospitable lodging, with Orleau lying incapacitated on the magical stretcher, mumbling some snatches of song.

Malthas,

The man, attempting to rise, slides to floor when you strike him. As you look around for the bar-maid, you feel a light touch on your arm.

It is the bar maid, standing on the other side of the bar, looking rather dishevelled, but still wearing that familiar rakish grin.

"Oh, poor you," she says, placing her hand lightly on your bruised and bleeding cheek. "I hope they haven't ruined that wonderful face. Shall I kiss it and make better?"
 

"HAHAHA!" Malachi chortles gleefully as the wonton barmaid once more appears at Malthas' arm

"yol be bless't t'naight Malthas" he grins "bot dhe rest'us bes' be gettin' back t' dhe ship afore dhe authoritees com.
Ah no wont t' be facin' no jailhaus!"
 

Malthas grins, and slides his arm around the barmaid. 'Indeed, my fair lady luck. i fear it could take many hours of kisses to repair all the damage done...."

He nods at Malachai. "But perhaps a place without so much," he gestures to the bodies littering the tavern, "detrius would be more hospitable, hmmm?"
 

Vemuz nods at Malachi as he turns to walk out the door, holding his broken arm.

OOC: Is there a ship's surgeon?
