Unrelated to the current conversation, would it be reasonable for Aleksand and Falxio to have know of each other before Aleksand fled? I figured as such, given that Falxio is a businessman and Aleksand is the black sheep of a merchant family, but I still would like your opinion on the matter, Zolkabro.
I suppose you're right. He's a relatively well known citizen of Prophos, even if he doesn't know you, you may know him, and he will almost certainly know somebody else in your family if it's a big merchant family. In fact, I'm sure he would not know you personally, because if something like that happened to a big rich family, they'd hush it up. It would be a big disgrace is somebody shamed their name and ran off. He would probably have no idea of your existence, even if he knew your father or uncle or some other person he does business with.
Although being recognised may irritate him greatly, he'd rather nobody here knew of his reputation for having a huge ego, and being all talk. It's true, of course, but he'd still rather keep it quiet.

For all intents and purposes, she has not quite given up yet. So, sure, let's do the disarming rolls. She already failed at the Attack of Opportunity, so here's her opposed attack roll, taking a penalty total of -10 for her conditions and use of a light weapon: 8
Ok. Looks like I'm trying to disarm with an unarmed strike, as that's a Light weapon, I'll take -4 on my roll.

Edit: Wow, smooth. I'll edit the IC post I suppose.

I don't think Aleksand would know of Falxio, given that Aleksand's conscious memory was erased when he remade as an elan. The goldies might know about Aleksand, though, given their underworld nature...
Ugh, I hate when I have to do this. My time has been growing short and I feel I should probably drop this game, I don't feel like the rules are really meshing with me and though I'd rather continue on and try some more, it's not working for me. Sorry...

Oh, that's a shame.
Do we have any more alternates? I suppose it's just as well I picked a combat class. I originally picked it because I thought Iceman was the one who quit, I got mixed up, and made it to replace a monk, so maybe if we bring in another alternate they choose a class that would replace a sorceror rather than a monk?
Well, thanks hugely for telling us. I hate it when somebody quits, but doesn't say, so we sit around waiting for them. Thanks for saying, I hope you find some kind of game you enjoy, even if this one hasn't worked out.
Also, I checked, and I do not have to roll intimidation again. She will be intimidated for as long as she is in our presence, and a while afterwards. So, as I won that check, she should back down each below threat I make as she has already been intimidated.

Also, do I have to keep rolling reflex saves out of combat? can I take 10 ?(I know its not enough, just want to know. Am i distracted by the prisoner?) since talking is a free action can I assume that by combat standards less than a round has passed so I don't have to roll again?

Talking may be considered a free action, but you've got to use your common sense. Not everyone can talk at once, and a round is only 6 seconds long. Several have probably passed by now. To be honest, as 1 minute (the duration of Thomas' Entangle at this level) is only 10 rounds, it's probably ended by now, or is about to, I just didn't want to make any assumptions.
It is always best to check these things though!
... I really want to link to the TV tropes 'Talking as a Free Action' page, but I'm not sure I can deal with the responsibility of sucking away several hours of all your lives by directing you there.
Long-winded? Look at half the stuff I post, especially on the first page of the thread!
Anyways, I need to do an NPC roll.

Edit: Not as good as I expected, but close enough. This is going to be fun.
Edit 2: Wow, I'm forgetful. I'll send Shayanuser the response to his check via PM. I'm sorry you can't continue the campaign, Iceman. Thank you for letting us know directly instead of simply failing to respond to anything for three weeks like SwordScythe. Unfortunately, we have no other alternates lined up. Still, six players is still a fairly large size for a party. I don't think we'll have any trouble with one less player.

Regret is listening for any clank sounds from outside the room: (d20+3)[21]
Is the tangle spell finished?

It all comes down to if you want it to or not. It isn't explicitly said so, but most would interpret the description of the spell to mean it affects "anyone the caster considers and ally at the time of casting" so you can chose when you cast it, but cannot later change your mind without casting it again.

Then I'll grant her the bonus too.
It may be a risk but I imagine Thomas would want to protect her as a start towards atonement (or some such) and giving her a bit of help defending herself is protects her a little bit.

Related to the state of Elanna, it's fortunate that Remove Curse is only a third level spell. It shouldn't be too expensive to commission a cleric for that, though having to wait until we've reached that level of experience could cost more than it's worth.
Perhaps we wont need Remove Curse, me and Thomas can prepare Protection from evil which can suppress mind control for 1min/level. We can get the information we need and wait for a more permanent solution.

You guys are free to try any spells you like to get rid of Sharps's control, but keep in mind that you have next to no information about how it even works - what variety of magic was used, the method of enchantment, and stuff like that. I've solidified all the exact details of what the "curse" does, including how to get rid of it/suppress it. Needless to say, it will be up to you guys to eventually figure it out.
I'll make an IC post as soon as Falxio gets a chance to respond to this situation. Everyone should have the opportunity to act before what's going to happen next.
I'm really sorry I haven't been online in a while, as I warned you my house has been overrun with children, and we have been having a wonderful time doing touristy stuff around London. I have not been on my computer in some time. This certainly won't stop, however, because I am enjoying myself hugely with my neices and nephew. So I'm going to warn you that I will be on erratically. For now, I will do a long post, catching up with what is going on.

Elanna is already intimidated, so she should do as I say. She will be intimidated until a while after I leave her company. I don't need to make another intimidation check.
I will however make a diplomacy check with this guard. Falxio is trying to present himself as fairly innocent, just doing his bit to help the city, defending against criminal gangs, take them, spare me, fawn fawn fawn, etc. He may even lick the guard's boots, but only if he gets really desperate.
Fingers crossed: (1d20+2)[15]

Casually walked towards the guard but staying just outside his reach.
So if you're out of his reach, unless you've got a reach weapon then he'd be out of yours as well.
Also, the argument could be made that as the previous combat is over we are no longer battle ready. If another combat were to start, this would have been the Guard's surprise round and we'd all be flat-footed until we acted. You can't make AoO whilst flat-footed.
That latter point is probably debatable:

You can also take free actions during the surprise round. If no one or everyone is surprised, no surprise round occurs.
Unaware Combatants
Combatants who are unaware at the start of battle don’t get to act in the surprise round. Unaware combatants are flat-footed because they have not acted yet, so they lose any Dexterity bonus to AC.
As we are all aware of each other, but an argument could certainly be made for it i.e. not viewing the guard as an immediate threat etc.
Zolkabro has the correct interpretation. Elanna dropped her knife before the guard was able to kill her.
Another secret roll is called for.

And no, I don't think a trip would have avoided the attack on Elanna. Sure, you might still get off a trip attempt, but his attack would be already made. Also, the guard was trying to act friendly and non-combative before raising his crossbow for half a second to shoot her. Some people might have interpreted that as ending combat or stopped considering him an enemy for the few moments he needed to shoot.
I'll make another IC post in a few hours, after my next class is over.
