Acid dart at the nasty patricide, obviously combining the worst of both races.

If a confirming critical roll is wanted:
How much you want to bet the boy is half drow? Half human pervert, half elf spider worshipper...
Okay MAP UPDATED. Maybe this will help me track it better and you guys can watch the status easier. Make sure I have your lvl2 HP and AC correct, then anyone who wants to act in this surprise round, step around Thumparr's mighty frame and do your business.
PS, i may not bother to publish all the freaking goblin HPs. Each has 6 with an AC of 18.
Sure, I am but your merciful and humble Dungeon Master and shall pay the penalty assigned of course! An harbor the appropriate grudge...:)
Shuddering at the horrific murder, and struggling to not empty his stomach, Dair hurls a a dagger at the unsuspecting son.
--------------surprise round result-------------
Boo sprays acid all over Tsuto. STATUS UPDATED. Dair's knife chatters to the floor beyond him.

Tinuviel hurls another acid dart at the wretched lad (Tsuto)

Menelei sees the sight of the young half-elf and the murdered father. For all the old man was foul, he may not have deserved to die.
"Desna guide us," she whispers, drawing her bow and firing an arrow at the nearest goblin.
For all us: +1 attack, save v fear.
Thumparr pulls his warhammer and charges into the room, heading for the closest goblins (Y 15/16).
"Ye get Tsuto, I'll take care of the gobbos!" he yells as he runs into battle, laughing loudly and cursing the goblins. But as fate would have it in this gods-forsaken place, he slides on some substance on the floor and misses terribly.
------------------round 1 bad guys-------------------
Tsuto realizes he and his goblins are under attack. Turning swiftly he swipes a crossbow from the table before him and fires an expert shot at Eyotah. It lands with a critical hit...She falls to the ground mortally wounded.
The goblins collectively hurl glass at you all, while the two perched up on the bridge crane clamor down the columns to the ground.

Goblin2 for ranged

Result: No one takes any damage but glass shards litter the floor so be careful!
Ah, my father said he had brought some 'friends' along with him! I will admit you all look a little more capable than his normal bloodyknuckles thugs. But no matter. You too shall become burnt offerings from my mistress Nualia to Lamashtu...
Kvothe flutters away from Boo. She will keep an eye on things in flight, unless there happens to be a perch up and out of the way with a clear view of the room.
Tinuviel looks like she is ready to spit acid. She contents herself with throwing a third acid dart at the very naughty boy.
for damage
Menelei stands near the back and fires another arrow at the same goblin.
Thumparr continues his useless attack on the goblins...
Dair if you ever miss a round just go ahead and post it after the fact. You won't ever miss your turn.
one lever actuates cogwheels that move the bridge NE-SW.
A second moves cauldron along the bridge SE-NW.
A third lever lowers and raises the cauldron so you can set it down or lift it up.
A forth lever tips the cauldron to pour it's contents out--hot molten glass. Right now the cauldron is suspended of Lonjiku's head.
You see the control/suspension ropes traveling from the levers up through a series of pully's and ultimately suspending the cauldron from the bridge. Should a humanoid cut these ropes the cauldron would doubtless crash to the ground. They certainly don't meet modern Varisian OSHA standards!
For anyone who doesn't know what a 'bridge crane' is (like i didn't a few years ago)
Dair quickly moves over to the control panel, looks at the levers real quick and drops the cauldron right where it is, pretty much killing the goblins right next to Lonjiku.
BOOM!
BOOM! CRASH!!
The door on the back (K3) of the shop bursts open with a crash, pieces of wood fly across as an axe edge burst though followed by a burly, gruff looking woodsman holding the easy end of the axe
The man rushes in (J4) trying to get his bearings, his eyes scanning and quickly assessing threats and advantages
I’LL CUT THIS WEED AT THE ROOT!!
He holds his wood axe in one hand as he draws a smaller tomahawk and throws it at the closest goblin (L5)
To hit: Damage:
WHO GOES NEXT!?!!
Glass sloshes violently over a 10ft diameter circle centered on Lonjiku's corps instantly melting the 2 flanking goblins and encasing them forever in glass.
Oh, and the culdron comes down smashing Lonjiku's corps into mashed jagged pieces. Gruesome. Nice job Dair.

High pitched goblin voice: My brother, My brother! Filthy woodz-man! Die on dogslicer!
Tsuto is starting to look a little worried about being surrounded.
You are not hired hands! Who are you all?
MAP UPDATED.
Yer kin's not dead...
give up the girl! or i'll keep mowing!
Maltheus grabs his axe with both hands and lets its edge seek the goblin (G5)
to hit: damage:
Tinuviel casts grease on U14. Grease creates a ten foot square of grease centered where T-boy is.
"If you surrender now, we'll let you stand upright. No one else will make you that promise."
"C'mon, ye pansy! I ain't gonna sit back and take it like ye Pa did!" Thumparr yells, swinging his hammer at Tsuto.
Menelei scowls as a second arrow wings the little monster, and takes a step back before firing a third.
Even if you kill me it is too late. My mistress has become more powerful than you guess. She will raise me from the dead and I will take my place at her right hand in her glory...Nothing shall stand in our way!

While Tsuto is distracted by Dairkal's dagger, Thumparr takes another swing at him.

Concentration Check
Just as Maltheus' arrow plunges into his flesh the half elf father murder Tsuto Kaijatsu's rips a scroll in the air over his head. His body shimmers in blue light...and he vanishes before your eyes.
The remaining goblins, thus abandoned by their master, throw down their arms and begin to beg for their lives:
Please master longshanks, don't kill us. We promises no more trouble, we promises!
Maltheus narrows his eyes, looking at the ground around where Tsuto was just standing, thinking it might be some trick...
after a few moments he spits in the ground and puts his bow away, taking his long axe out, with the palm of his hand securely holds the flat of the blade and ribs the goblin with the shaft, nodding towards the center of the room signaling for it to move, then says to the group (keeping his attention on the goblin)
I'm Maltheus, recently from the Churlwood forest, the townsfolk told me you helped them push back the goblin aggression and might find you here, i wanted to thank you and see if i could help...
Welcome, Maltheus - yer likely to regret what ye've gotten yerself into afore it's all over with. Thumparr Ironfist is me name.
Thumparr looks around at the goblins and hefts his hammer. Not keen on letting these gobos go.
he nods to Thumparr, as he walks to wards the group Maltheus picks up his throwing axe, goes to clean it with a rag and sees his bloody thigh,
s*!! he growls in a low voice and looks back at the goblin that wounded him
sits taking out a clean hunting knife and gritting his teeth he opens the gash carefully to clean the wound, satisfied there's no major damage, puts back together the torn muscle and ties his thight with a clean piece of cloth checks his leg again and bends his knee checking the damage, then looks again at the group and seeing Dirkal
you're hurt, let me see if i can help
if allowed, he asks Dirkal to lay on one of the tables, inspects and cleans his wounds, dirkal can hear a hushed prayer as Maltheus does this
The goblins back to the center of the room dropping their weapons and trembling. Cowards. Any character with an eye for treasure sees the following on the Table Tsuto was using just before the battle:
1. 6 tan pouches and 8 grey pouches
2. 10 platinum pieces
3. A masterwork theives tools set
4. A masterwork flute
5. A leather bound journal, open, with a quill and ink sitting nearby, all illuminated by a tallow candle, pig fat wax running down it's sides in thick rivulets...
Assuming it isn't magical, Tinuviel, drawn by sheer nosiness, will walk towards the table and read the journal.
