The Silver Stars of the Eclipsing Moon

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
Holding up his hand for silence, Tyrgen creeps forward and listens for a moment outside the bedroom door (move silently (1d20+4)[22], listen (1d20+5)[12]).

[The Great Skenardo]

Bronsk
The yellow-eyed wolf glances once at the horse yet tied outside the house, then returns watching the windows for any sign of attempted escape.

[Ozzy_G]

Karl, in the form of the woman from the sewers (though still in hybrid form behind his disguise) waits behind Tyrgen.

[Maryring]

"Hmm... should this go here then? No... no effect here either. Argh, this is so confusing." There is an audible sigh. "Now, lets see... perhaps the cup..." Is heard from inside the bedroom.

[Amiria]

Lisaa

Lisaa also follows in hybrid form with her bow ready. She tries to be silent.

Move Silently: 1d20+12 = 17
Listen: 1d20+8 = 11

[Maryring]

(The woman's speech is understandable with a DC 10 listen check.)

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
Well, at least she isn't expecting us. Tyrgen beckons Karl forwards, signing that he wants to whisper something to him and Lisaa.

[Ozzy_G]

Karl creeps forward, putting one hand up to his ear.

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
Leaning his head close to the other two, Tyrgen whispers "We go in quick. Grab her, make things safe. Then we ask her things." He looks at the other two for acknowledgement and puts his hand on the door handle.

[Amiria]

Lisaa

The wolf-elf nods and leans her bow on a wall. She positions herself to jump into the room as soon as the door is opened.

Initiative: 1d20+7 = 15

[Ozzy_G]

Karl, still in his disguise as the woman, nods. Just don't get us confused, he whispers.

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
With no more ado, Tyrgen shoves the door wide open. "Surrender!" he shouts at the lady inside.

(Intimidate: (1d20+1)[10] ; Initiative (1d20+2)[12]).

[Maryring]

The door opens up, revealing the woman standing by the window, looking at those standing in the door. She does not appear to be surprised or frightened.

(Initiative 24. Need Bronsk and Karl's initiative.)

[Ozzy_G]

Initative (d20+3)[9]
(make that 11, for extra dex from hybrid form)

[Maryring]

Before anyone else manages to react, the thief, equipped with all the relics she stole, jumps out of the window and grabs hold of the roof and pulls herself up onto it, out of reach for those assaulting her. Bronsk can see her feverently looking around for a new place to run too, yet she also appears ready to strike against those after her.

[The Great Skenardo]

Bronsk
Vakri...You'll have to handle this one.

Vakri
A sudden change appears to come over the wolf's demeanor. Its stance becomes at once more fluid and more tense. The wolf dashes quietly to where the horse yet stands (presumably still somewhat spooked) and with a snapping of jaws slices the rope holding it fast.

[Amiria]

Lisaa

With a growl Lisaa dashes through the room and jumps out of the window. She also tries to climb to the roof.

Climb: 1d20+5 = 22 (+ a bonus for having claws ?)

((edited Initiative up to 15 [forgot increased dexterity of hybrid form]))

[Maryring]

With a firm grip, Lisaa manages to struggle herself up towards the roof. However the thief was prepared at being followed, and before Lisaa manages to get up completely, she is struck by a dagger thrown by the thief. Despite her armour and thick skin, the dagger sticks in deep and causes a nasty wound. The wound causes Lisaa to almost lose her grip and fall, but she manages to push herself up and get next to the thief.

As soon as the ropes are cut, the horse runs away as quickly as he can, frightened by Bronsk's presence.

[Amiria]

Lisaa

Lisaa tries to get a hold of the thief and then purposefully loose balance with her on the roof to fall from the house.

Grapple check: 1d20+6 = 22

[Maryring]

As Lisaa attempts to grab hold of the thief, the thief spots an opening and stabs Lisaa with the relic sword. It is a direct hit, but thanks to her strong hide, the sword bounces of harmlessly. The thief is nimble however, and Lisaa's attempt at grappling fails as the thief nimbly evades her claws.

[The Great Skenardo]

Vakri
Turning its lamp-like yellow eye from the retreating horse, the gray wolf watches the combat occurring on the roof. With a crackle of bone and tendons, the wolf rears up on its hind legs and changes.
Newly-formed fingers retrieve a small white disc from one of the bulky belt's pouches and flings it up on the roof at the thief.
Mid-arc, the token springs out into the shape of a gigantic glowing whip, which lashes out, trying to take the thief prisoner.
Touch Attack: 1d20+10 = 20
Damage: 1d6+1 = 3
Grapple Check = 1d20+15 = 30

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
Tyrgen's form ripples, and his chain vest falls to the floor as he changes into hybrid form as well, becoming more monstrous with each stride after Lisaa to the window. He flips the glaive back onto his shoulder, seizes the upper window and attempts to gain the roof by main force.

Climb: (1d20+5)[22]

[Maryring]

In an amazing feat of raw power, Tyrgen manages to pull himself up onto the roof with little trouble at all.

[Ozzy_G]

Karl searches the room to see if any of the artefacts are here.
search - (d20+2)[15]

[Maryring]

There are no relics inside the room. Karl does find a strange inscription on the bed though, but he is unable to dechiper it.

Meanwhile the thief says out a strange word, and the sword gains a radiant blue aura. She then cuts into Lisaa once more, however the sword bounces of harmlessly. Frightened, the thief then retreats further up on the roof, away from the edge.

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
"Give up and we won't hurt you!" shouts Tyrgen, his voice a feral roar. He moves into position to strike the thief with the flat of his glaive if she tries anything.

(Readies action: non-lethal attack with Glaive. 1d20+4 to hit (+2 if flanking), 1d10+5 subdual dmg.)

[Amiria]

Lisaa

Lisaa jumps towards the thief and tries to grapple her again. "Surrender !"

[Maryring]

The thief makes a cunning sidestep and avoids Lisaa, however before she manages to return the favour, Bronsk/Vakri has climbed up a nearby tree and called into exsistance a magical whip. The whip binds itself around the thief and pulls her towards the edge of the roof. The thief struggles to break free, but isn't strong enough.

[paddyfool]

Tyrgen
Seeing the thief held for the moment, Tyrgen moves around behind her and grabs her wrists to ensure she doesn't get her sword out to strike again.

The thief deftly twists her arm out of Tyrgen's grip.
