His anger dissipates but he doesn't smile. Instead, he runs his fingers through his hair and then shakes his head. "Al'right, I might have overreacted, but you have to u-understand that we in the Regulars are all a bit frazzled. It's been a hard couple of m-months." Akos can see that the man is bleary-eyed and a bit unsteady on his feat.The other guards nod and lower their swords."I told you to knock it off!" Vinccenzo takes a swing at Mani with the flat of his blade, but the doppelganger avoids the clumsy swing. "You're not going anywhere but to a cell!""Is she really a doppelganger?" a female guard asks.[OOC]Akos' roll makes the guard sergeant become Indifferent to the group while the other guards become Friendly.[/OOC]Anton looks through the fog to try to find the face that goes with the voice. Then he sees the kobold and his smile disappears. "Your the one who helped my cousin. Those rats came back! You need to give the money back to him or finish the job!"[OOC]Okay, so Tuck's Diplomacy check wasn't great, but was mitigated by Akos roll. I'm going to say that Anton is only Indifferent to Tuck and Friendly to the others.[/OOC]Mutt moves in next to Mani and nips at the doppelganger's butt. His teeth meet only air.The doppelganger tries to shuffle away from the guard sergeant and the adventurers and slither out of the ropes Akos bound it with. It misjudges the location of the open door and knocks its head on the open door and falls over onto the ground."The gods hate me!" It screams in anger.[OOC]<a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=242593" target="_blank">Mani - Escape Artist check (DC 14): 1D20+3 = [1]+3 = 4</a> (OMG! I rolled a 1 again!) <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f923.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":ROFLMAO:" title="ROFL    :ROFLMAO:"  data-smilie="18"data-shortname=":ROFLMAO:" /> <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f923.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":ROFLMAO:" title="ROFL    :ROFLMAO:"  data-smilie="18"data-shortname=":ROFLMAO:" />[/OOC]As the doppelganger tries to stand back up, Tim steps forward and swings the flat of his greatsword over Tuck and Akos' head and tries to connect with the shapechanger. The blade misses but the big half-ogre brings his shield down on Mani's head, but doesn't put all his weight behind it.The doppelganger goes down in a heap."Was that really necessary?" The sergeant asks. "She wasn't going anywhere.""Sarge, look!" Anton gasps.The visage of the old woman disappears and is replaced by the doppelganger's true form."I guess I am an effing dragon.""We need to lock it up, quickly," Vinccenzo says. "And once this fog clears, word needs to be sent to the Lord Commander and The Five.""Anton, Mariana, take that thing inside and lock it up!""Yes sir, Sarge," the woman replies. She and Anton pick up Mani with Vinccenzo's help and drag the doppelganger inside and through a wooden door into an enclosed area and dump Mani into a cell big enough for one person and lock it."She's not going anywhere," Anton notes.Back in front of of the guard post, the sergeant goes to shake Akos' hand. "I owe you a debt. I nearly made a mistake that could have cost me my job. If you ever need anything, just ask."OOC: <a href="http://roll.coyotecode.net/lookup.php?rollid=242595" target="_blank">Tim - Nonlethal damage with Rizvan: 1D6+7 = [1]+7 = 8</a></blockquote>
