Round 2
Korra rushed up, slashing her axe at the harby, slicing into the creature’s torso. The winged woman shrieked in pain and anger.
Alara called on her magic, but didn’t release it yet as she eyed the other people on the skybridge.
DePoe looked for a place to hide, but the area was pretty open.
Ogham swung out his thorn whip, wrapping it around the harpies abdomen, and pulled the creature away from Korra and closer toward him.
Rotom moved up and drove her dagger into the harpy.
The harpy shrieked again and turned on the little kobold, the only one immediately in range. Rotom blocked the harpy’s claws with her shield, but it left her open just enough that the harpy managed to catch her with its club along the side of her head. (4 bludgeoning damage to Rotom)
As the fight broke out, the other four individuals loitering on the skydeck gave out cries of surprise and fear, running away from the confrontation as quickly as they could, fleeing the area.

1 unicorn-shaped feather token for each character: When you fall at least 20 feet while the token is on your person, you descend 60 feet per round and take no damage from falling. The token’s magic is expended after you land, whereupon the disk becomes nonmagical.
Stepping forward, Ogham closes the small distance between him and the harpy. His already raised mace comes down, but it is a clumsy strike, nimbly deflected by a surprising tough wing.
Alara winced as blood flowed once again from the injured Rotom. She flicked her wrist and a blue ball of flame struck the harpy squarely in the chest. The air filled with the smell of burning feathers.

Round 0
DePoe snuck an arrow into the harpy, and it shrieked in pain.
Ogham stepped up and hit her with his mace, causing her to stagger in the air.
Alara finished the harpy off with a bolt of fire that left her smouldering on the skybridge.

Alara looks at the bystanders. "One of you - summon the Watch!" She calls. The wizard gives the direction not so much as a call for reinforcements but as a declaration of innocence.
"We need to move on quickly," She urges. "We can't let him escape."
