With the awkwardness of trying to strike with the flat of the blade, however, he doesn't connect with the bounty hunter.Torrent cries out, "Hey, jerk! Leave her alone!" as she crosses the room and swings her axe at the thug who just brained Cassandra. She stumbles a bit on a floorboard as she approaches, however, causing her swing to miss wildly.Cassandra ignores her pounding head, and steps back around the corner of the bar. As she does so, she speaks some words of arcane power and gestures dramatically. Then, a fan of brightly colored prismatic light shoots forth from her fingertips, enveloping both of the attacking thugs. The first thug blinks but manages to shake off the effects, but the second thug topples over like a stone, his senses overcome.Aridha rushes across the Poison Apple's common room, slashing with her knife at the first thug, but her blow is turned aside by the man's shield.Xander tries to put down the remaining thug with a powerful swing of his greatsword, but his blade fails to connect as well.Markus grips his short spear and watches the stairs, certain that there must be more attackers above on the second floor.Markus' vigilance is proved right, as more Black Horse bounty hunters appear on the stairs. The first two begin to descend with saps in hand, and grim looks on their faces. More enemies are visible at the top of the stairs.At that moment, the pub suddenly explodes into chaos! The building shakes, and there is a deafening boom from overhead. Ceiling boards crack and buckle, and flaming oil from upstairs leaks down into the room like a fiery rain. From above, screams sound out, and one flaming bounty hunter tumbles down the stairs past his two startled companions, obviously dying. The bronze bust of Emperor Coaltongue falls off the wall and lands with a thud. Taren, Coldan, and Markus are burned slightly by the flaming oil that sprays down as bits of fiery debris rain down from above. END ROUND 1[sblock=ROUND 1 MECHANICS]Coldan issues Knight's Challenge to Thug #1 successfully. Attacks Thug #1 with longsword.
