[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 9596886, member: 42856"] We leave Emeritus' house and make our way through the busy streets of Crescentium. As we pass by a street market, we notice a local woman being molested by two Thulander barbarians in a back alley. Thuland is probably not-Norse, but geographically closer to England. It's, IMHO, not-Danelaw. [ATTACH type="full" width="277px" alt="1740313906860.png"]397474[/ATTACH] Despite having the chance to not care at all and keep wandering through the bazaar, we decide to intervene -- we have basic decency, at least. We diplomatically call them fatherless rodents and remind them that even a Ta'ashim woman is above their station. [I]We're expert at insult both the offenders and the person we're trying to protect. We're really experts at diplomacy.[/I] Surprisingly, they don't like us interrupting and the insult. "They didn't like that. You can see that you have a fight on your hands now", the book informs us. We're collectively flabbergasted that they don't decide to politely excuse themselves from the conversation. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1740314210722.png"]397475[/ATTACH] FP 8, PA 6, AR 0, Damage 2d6+1, Awareness 7, HP 30. Special rules: we need to win within two rounds or turn to 443. Technically it should be possible to inflict enough damage (Trixie can do three attacks a 1d6+3 for a total of 21, Winny two attacks at 2d6+1 for a total of 26, Salvia can fire two arrows for a total of 12, and Esmeralda can off one Thulander each round (enthralling one and vaporizing the other, or sheet lightning for 14 damage to both...) so we can deal a total of 60 damage in two rounds. It's heavily reliant on all the attacks connecting and the maximum damage being rolled. Any suggestion? Moving one of our frontliner to sandwhich one of the Thulander would cost a round of taking the moving action, but it might allow to concentrate our physical attack on a single foe while Esmeralda deals with the other one.
