"The woman was a ruse!" Kevin tries to shout to his companions "Be careful there may be more assassins in the crowd!" He starts advancing on her, but sees to his relief that Carfal is allright. That's good, it means he won't have to kill the witch for revenge.
If the cleric's spell successfully stops the woman, he runs up and smacks the side of her head with the shaft of his spear. Otherwise he charges and stabs her with the spear.
[sblock=combat info]
Since Carfal goes first in init, my action is dependant on the results of his. If she stops moving, I'll try to subdue her, taking the -4 attack for nonlethal. (+6 attack, 1d6+4 nonlethal damage)
Otherwise, I'll just go for a Power attack(2). (+8 attack, 1d6+7 damage).
Either way, it's a Charging attack.
I'm not wielding my shield at the moment, so my AC is 15, but my weapon is currently held 2-handed (dealing more damage).

Hearing Kevin's shout, Garren nocks another arrow and turns to scan the crowd, looking for anyone else who might threaten the nobleman. If he sees an obvious threat, he will shoot. If he sees something suspicious but not clearly aggressive he will shout a warning and demand surrender from the person in question.

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
Scanning
Seeing others efficiently react to the threat, Logan continues in the wake of Grogan.
He scans thinning crowd trying to notice someone either spellcasting or having missile weapon ready or threatening Grogan's back, preparing to command them to stop if they try something.
2 reactions:
If he gets to the lord safely Logan heals his mount.
If he cannot move through the crowd due to press of bodies, he casts Detect Thoughts getting Lord and woman in emanation (and of course anyone around them, trying to discern is there any other threat around).

Uncertain of exactly what's happening and who's involved, and concerned that it might be spotted and mistakenly targeted by the panicked crowd below, the small maroon dragon lazily beats the air with its wings as it slowly ascends higher (unseen servant directed to move Kosj diagonally up and 5-ft. towards the direction the woman seems intent to flee). With a muttered word and a wave of talons, the small Vorastrix casts detect magic as it snakes is saurian head around, trying to uncover any other hidden threats below.
From the Rooftops- Round 2
[OOC: Did I knock the guards down or did they avoid me? ]
[OOC: Since you were in a hurry, I assumed -you- avoided -them-..
]
Grogan is successful, with his sword jammed in the ground and his hands around the bridle of the horse. The horse appears to hate the presence of the half-orc (failed animal handling) but is responding to the brute muscle jerking its head around. Likewise, Ashchenon looks suprised and not at all pleased, but seems to change his mind once he sees what Grogan is doing.
The crowd becomes unruly, and the press gets worse. The Lord helps wrestle down his horse, and once the two guards fight their way back he says, "Leave the half-orc alone!"
The woman begins to run away when Carfal's hold spell hits her; she crashes into a few people, and they scatter, yelling. If anyone has put together that she's really not got the plague, they're drowned out by the crowd panic.
Garren, his bow drawn, doesn't see any new threats. He does see the rainbow-colored dwarf wandering around, the crowd retreating, the knot of people around the Lord and the figures converging on the downed halfling.
Logan manages to fight his way through the press and reach Grogan and Ashchenon; the heal spell goes off, he pulls out the quarrel, and the horse calms down considerably.
Vorastrix casts detect magic; he sees the occasional flash of a magic item in the retreating crowd, as well as magic on the Lord and the leader of the guards. All of them, suprisingly, has the same signature, as if the same person or people made all the items.
Ghelt reaches the halfling, who appears to have a broken leg and a punctured lung. There is a slowly spreading blood pool beneath him. The halfling's features are frozen, as if from a spell or from some poison.
Stonecipher fights through the crowd, jostled a bit by the press. [Still with us, Stonecipher?]
Kevin follows up behind Carfal's spell and whacks the woman with the butt of his spear; she continues to not move, though a bruise appears at her temple. It doesn't look like she's going anywhere for a while.

Grogan lets go of the bridle, slaps the horses flank in reassurance that everything is OK, and pulls his sword from the ground. He looks to Logan who he sees cast a healing spell and states "Attend to the fallen, especially the traitorous swine. Make sure they do not pass this world for the Dales have justice to dispense." He smiles at this thought, for if they do not dispense justice appropriately, that means he will.
Grogan whistles again for his horse and is getting a little impatient for its lack of attention to his need of his manacles.
He nods to Lord Ashchenon and says "Grogan of the Ebon Jaguar tribe at your service." as he looks scampers off to the closest of the fallen assassins.
[OOC: That works. Mowing them down is not a requirement.
Would be great for effect, but not necessary. I suppose earning the ire of the local lord's guards is not a good idea. ]

With the sudden conflict below seemingly winding down, the small maroon dragon continues to circle idly overhead while searching the local weave for magical auras. (Continuing to concentrate to determine the number, strength and school of all visible auras, Spellcraft +7)
OOC: Looking back at the roof that the halfling sniper was on, does it appear that he left or dropped anything there before falling to the street below?
