Internal Monologue
(click to show/hide)

"'ah'm a*hic*fraid 'at ah've ha.. ha.. had *hiccup* doo mawch t' dwrink f'r a fight fewllaaaas" says Kheldar with a drunken drawl. Following the long slow drunken speech you see Kheldar sway dramatically and then fall into the large thug identified as Stuve.

Heavens, a fight! An honest to goodness bar brawl. Only this could turn very ugly if those men with the bows try to carry out their plan and stop Sorrel and I from leaving. Maybe if we subdue their companion quickly...

So ran Alvin's thoughts before he set his mind to forging a second weapon out of the Aether. The wicked dagger at his back would not do for a fistfight so he made the translucent blue forcefield in the shape of a sap this time.

Having forged the weapon, Alvin targeted it at the bruiser assailed by Legion and Kheldar. He then turned his attention to his own situation. Moving carefully, he followed Sorrel over to the group.

Kara gives the thugs her 'not impressed' face as they come charging into the bar. She really didn't understand the situation, but that's never been a real concern for her. All she knew is they were pointing weapons at her friends and so were probably bad guys.

"Be careful with those things. They can hurt someone."
She moves forward, evading attacks and leaps onto one of the tables while drawing a knife from her boot. Silverware goes flying and a drink spills over at the halfling's might. With practiced aim she picks her target and throws a sharp, pointy metal knife at it, her momentum transferring to the spinning knife as it sails towards her opponent.
"But so can I."

Kheldar bounces heavily off the bruiser, falling to the ground.  Stuve looks at him, dumbfounded and trying to figure out why Kheldar is acting this way... and then a translucent blue weapon hurtles over and crashes into his skull with an echoing *thunk*.  Stuve collapses right next to Kheldar, senseless.

Kara leaps up onto the table, hurling a knife at one of the crossbowmen, who yelps as the sliver of metal slams into his shoulder.

Legion exhales, scorching the two crossbowmen and causing thick smoke to fill the room.  There are several yells of alarm and people start making quickly for the exits, coughing.

Sorrel mutters a few magic words under his breath as he shoots at the injured thug.

((Assuming I have a clear path to one of the thugs))

Isaac moved quick as he could, around to one of the thug's outer side. No need in getting too close to BOTH of them. As he moved in, he swung his large sword at the foe, trying to keep up pressure and not allow the use of those crossbows to go unpunished.

Sorrel's bolts take down the injured thug, but the second one nimbly avoids Isaac's swordswipe.  Isaac can hear him cursing under his breath, wondering how this has gone so horribly, horribly wrong.

He takes a step back and fires at Isaac, missing wide left.

Apologies for my absence. Work has begun its busy season, so the resident weasel swordslinger may go on autopilot for a bit. SirP, feel free to have Nora'Luuu do what is needed to end bad guys and be tribal and awesome. I'll post when I can!

Alvin gasped slightly when the crossbowman fired. He would never get used to he or his friends being shot at. Relieved the bolt missed he concentrated on bringing both of his forged weapons to bear.

Actions: 2 move actions to redirect both sap of aether and dagger of aether to the remaining thug.

If target is still standing, Kara jumps off the table and rushes it. "I'm coming to get you!" she says, waving one of her daggers wildly around as she closes in on the crossbowman.

If perhaps you had the time and inclination you might notice that the rather complicated individual currently referred to as Kheldar the drunken, face-slapped, murdering ho.... ahem, Kheldar is slowly crawling his way to the corner of the bar.

As the smoke clears, Legion leaps across the room and throws himself at the still-standing crossbowman.

Pummeled by Æther weapons and Legion's thorny fists, the remaining thug drops quickly.

The smoke clears, and you are all standing over the unconscious (and bleeding) bodies of three members of the Thieves' Guild.

Alvin looks around, out the door and towards the back where the thugs came from, "Are there more of them? Should we be worried about another attack?" His gaze falls on the men on the floor, "If not, maybe we should tie these guys up or something? We should find some guards and have them arrested. Kheldar, you'll testify right?"

"A drunk testifies in our defense? Dubious. Check them for information, first. Tie them up, maybe they have written orders or recorded intentions on their persons?" Isaac wasn't sure whether it was a good idea to include authorities so quickly. But it was easy enough to justify waiting. He went quickly to the door, to make sure no authorities were on their way just yet.

A familiar white cat casually strolled inside the bar by the front door. As Snowy noticed the scene, she shifted back to her humanoid form near Kara. All happy and smiling, she said, "Hey girl... OH! How comes everywhere we go people end up dying! Tell me what's up with that," waving at what she assumed are dead bodies.

Amid the tangle of chairs and tables and unconscious people's legs, popped up Nora'Luuu. Apparently unaccustomed to bar brawls, the weasel warrior was waylaid early by an errant chair and just came to.

He stalked back to the group as it were, giving their unconscious assailants a rather nasty growl.

Sorrel stows his bow and fumbles through his pack for some rope and some bandages.

"Is everyone alright? Alvin, can you help me bandage these thugs up? I don't want any of them bleeding to death in my town. Legion, there may be more of them outside. Can you watch the door?"
