Kayla shrugs. "Well, he wanted to see the moon, so maybe he kept his window open. If so, Poe should be able to fly around and find him. If not, I guess we can just listen at doors or play "Oops, wrong room" until we find his."
"Doesn't that magic trick you just pulled work through doors, Cecil? Just track those auras you were talking about, no?"
"Doesn't that magic trick you just pulled work through doors, Cecil? Just track those auras you were talking about, no?"
"It's line of sight."
"Doesn't that magic trick you just pulled work through doors, Cecil? Just track those auras you were talking about, no?""It's line of sight."
"Although..." Cecil says after a moments thought, "Owen has been here the whole time..." Cecil continues to absently pat owens head as he lays on the ground next to Cecil's chair"... and probably has his scent. We could just track that to the correct room. Assuming he hasn't already gotten his smell all over the inn somehow."

Owen stands and stretches his great dane form. Whispering to keep himself inconspicuous: "I will find Marrok, you'll have to chase me down and leash me when you catch up. Just play up the "bad dog" and we should attract no undue suspicion."
Owen barks loudly and bounds around the tavern before racing up the stairs to the inn. He is sniffing hapazardly, but the Dragoons can see the method to the madness. Soon he disappears around the landing, but his scufling feet are audible: even over the sound of his sniffing.
"Owen! No, bad doggie! Owen get back here!" Kayla will chase down the "bad doggie" Owen with Cecil, apologizing to various people they disturb along the way.
Kayla apologizes to Owen for calling him a bad doggie. She feels odd calling him a dog since she now knows he is intelligent and can talk.

Seeing the look on Kayla's face Owen wispers, "It's fine. We all have our roles to play sometimes. "
Cecil says to the group quietly when everyone is back at the table
"So, wait for him to leave his room and jump him? I assume he'll leave through the window. Some of us can wait on the roof and some in the hallway. Is that about the whole of it?"
"That sounds about right. It'd be good to catch him in the act of doing something.

"So, wait for him to leave his room and jump him? I assume he'll leave through the window. Some of us can wait on the roof and some in the hallway. Is that about the whole of it?"
Continuing to think out loud,
"..Of course we could just storm his room and beat him into submission. No one said he needed a fair trial. It'll be considerably easier to question him when he's removed of his weapons and bound tightly. "
"I'm actually fine with that idea as well. I'm just a bit worried about collateral damage to the inn. That's why I was hoping we could follow him out into the open."
"I'm actually fine with that idea as well. I'm just a bit worried about collateral damage to the inn. That's why I was hoping we could follow him out into the open."
"we can buy them a new inn. Although what if something were to happen in the night that caused everyone, including our quarry, to vacate the inn. "
"We are not starting any more fires."
"We are not starting any more fires."
"There are other options."
"Well, what other spectacle or natural disaster could we arrange?"
"Well, what other spectacle or natural disaster could we arrange?"
"Loud noises, we could just yell fire, flood, famine. Of course the more I think about it the worse of an idea I think it is. We should just break his door down and be done with it. "
Nodding as each new plan is suggested, Osslend's face goes from eager to frustrated. Eventually he points to the man's door and says in a quiet voice, "Someone pick the lock or I'll bust the door down."
After a moment, he'll add, "Someone has about a minute before I just bust it in. He could be hearing all of this. Time is of the essence."
"Give me 30 seconds to pick this, if not we're going in."
Brynn hastily takes lead into the room as he draws his shield and flicks his wrist to suddenly produce a silver dagger to his right hand. He hunkers down and waits for an opportune attack while peering into the dark corners of the room.
Shinami keeps close to the walls and slips on silver knuckles on one hand and brass knuckles on the other.
Brynn scans the room as his allies fall in behind him. Nothing...wait, a noise out the window?
"Owen, Get him!"
Owen Bursts into action and appearing as a great dane leaps out the window. When his front half clears the portal his bat like wings unfurl dispelling the illusion.
meanwhile Cecil grabs brynn by the shoulders and says, " Jump out the window. My magic will catch us." Cecil then proceeds to quickly lead Brynn to the window and jump with him assuming Brynn doesnt resist.
...Meanwhile...
Owen has darkvision 60'
Perception to find him in the moonlight
Survival to track by scent if needed
Owen has a 60' fly speed. Assuming he sees him he's going to throw his body at the man and attempt to grapple him to the ground.
CMB
Shinami runs to and flips out of the window, grabbing onto the windowsill then scales down the wall following the mage and the warrior.
Growling as he looks at his own armor, Osslend starts to turn to run down the stairs when he suddenly stops, turns back to the room and looks around carefully. With a few hand gestures, he commands his hounds to do the same.
Sensing the Houndmaster paushing above him, Shinami stops his descent and clings to the wall, a dark shadow blending into the exterior of the tavern.
Does Osslend sense something?

Shinami stops on the side of the building and hears a low growl from his left. Looking over, Shinami is face to face with a werewolf! Its greying muzzle dripping saliva.
The wolf grabs Shinami and falls off the building holding the ninja toward the ground.
The fall hurts Shinami, but the wolf seems relatively unharmed.
Fearing for Shinami's safety, Kayla says a quick prayer to Sarenrae and scrambles down the side after them after them.
Round 2
Owens Turns about and lands next to the grappling pair He then tries to take a bite out of the werewolf.
Bite
Free trip if bite hits CMB
Seconds before Owen attacks Cecil Says something arcane and all his companions seem to be able to move faster.
School transmutation; Level bard 3, sorcerer/wizard 3
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (a shaving of licorice root)
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Targets one creature/level, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart
Duration 1 round/level
Saving Throw Fortitude negates (harmless); Spell Resistance yes (harmless)
The transmuted creatures move and act more quickly than normal. This extra speed has several effects.
When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may make one extra attack with any weapon he is holding. The attack is made using the creature's full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a speed weapon, nor does it actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round.)
A hasted creature gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves. Any condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes you lose dodge bonus es.
All of the hasted creature's modes of movement (including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim) increase by 30 feet, to a maximum of twice the subject's normal speed using that form of movement. This increase counts as an enhancement bonus, and it affects the creature's jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Multiple haste effects don't stack. Haste dispels and counters slow .
If the werewolf is running away, Kayla yells after him: "Approach!"
If he is still nearby and fighting, Kayla yells "Halt!"
Osslend growls, "I hate being right sometimes."
With that, he and the hounds race out of the room and head for the stairs, planning to run out and around the building to join the fray.
"Get OFF of me, mutt!
Shinami struggles and squirms about looking for a weakness in the hold, ready to snake out.
Clones.
Shinami wriggles free and becomes a dance of shadows.
Bryce, watching from the window, sees Shinami break loose of the creature and fires his bow.
1d20+9 1d8+8
Brynn's float down out of the window leaves him with a bit of momentum into what he can now see as a fairly standard melee fight. Standard except for the man-wolf. Seeing the hulking mass of fur and muscle, Brynn goes with his gut instinct and drops his dagger and shield. His grey eyes shift into a hawk-like focus as he gains a sudden surge of strength, with which he uses to propel himself into the wolf sword first.
Full-round action: Charge to K9 (<--lol), power attacking the wolf.
