The rogue curses as he slips off the beam he has been walking along but he floats to the floor without harm. As soon as his feet sink into the muck he darts off past Erwin.
Oscar gasps in surprise as his foe suddenly becomes slippery as one of the eel's he used to try to catch with his brothers back home.
"Oh". "So you wanna play rough do you". "I tried to do this without messing up your pretty face".
Unarmed Strike
Non-lethal damage
Oscar's fist slams into an invisible protective field around Natalya's body. She ignores him, though, screaming in rage and maybe even fear as Shiv disappears through the doorway on the other side of the room.
Ellantera tries changing tactics, waving both hands in front of Natalya. "You are not being rational, Natalya. Do you want the satchel back? All you have to do is come with us and we will give it back. We will hold it as an assurance that you won't attack us again. Fair enough?"
Kassandra hears the noises from above and remains below the high platform, intending to react if Natalya jumps down, tries to follow Shiv or run away.
Erwin hasn't much to offer right now, so he'll just delay and hope that someone finally manages to take Natalya down.
"&@¥$% this!" Galyna mutters as she fires.
Galyna's bolt hits the air directly in front of Natalya, but like Oscar's fist before it, some invisible protection shields her from harm, sending the bolt skidding away.
Natalya jumps down to the lower level.
Kassandra looks surprised as the woman brushes next to her, jumping down unexpectedly. She feebly tries to stop her by slashing with her dagger, but she only cuts the open air. Frustratingly, she curses and throws her dagger towards the general direction in which Natalya attempts to flee but isn't even close.
If Natalya gets within ten feet or so of Urasia and she can do so without injuring any party members, she will cast Burning Hands at Natalya. If not, she will hold her action, hoping one of the tougher members could grab her.
Damage
DC 15 Reflex for half
Oscar lashes out at the slippery eel.
Warhammer
Damage
"Enough playing nice". "Let's just send her to the afterlife".
Uraisa fires out a sheet of flame that wraps around Natalya, singeing her. A few wisps of smoke rise from her, but she seems largely unharmed by the magic.
Miet attempts to use colour spray on her again if she can avoid hitting the others.
Miet sends another blast of color into the face of the fleeing thief.
The magic again stuns the woman, blinding her and making her twitch uselessly.
"Miet! Oscar! Galyna! What are you doing!? You are going to hurt her if you are not careful!"
Glancing around the corner to see if the woman is giving chase, Shiv sees her enveloped and staggered by Miet's magical spray of color, "Knock the lass out Salt! Don't leave all that coin sittin' on tha table." Leaning, out of sight, back against the wall he opens and digs around in the satchel, "Let's see what all tha fuss is about, shall we?"
"Oh Hells"!
Oscar leaps from the top intending to squash the reeling woman.
Acrobatics
(CMB?) Flying body drop attack, +1 for higher ground.
Damage ?? (to both Oscar and the woman....
Splattered by Oscar, Erwin has lost his patience with the mage by now, and steps forward, drawing his mace and getting reay to teach her a hard lesson.
Kassandra descends to the room floor by using the ladder, then loads her crossbow and tries to aim at Natalya, but she won't fire yet.
Galyna points her crossbow at Natalya and fires another shot at her.
Galyna's care in trying not to hit Oscar or Erwin keeps her from hitting Natalya as well. Her eyes focus on the two men in front of her, but she doesn't seem able to do anything about them.
"Pile on her now!"
Aid another check to grapple
Miet will also try to aid the grapple
"Don't hurt her! Galyna, put that thing away! Just grab her!"
Ellantera will move back to the ladder and move down it as fast as she can manage in her armor. Once she's ten feet from the bottom, if she's stuck behind an ally, she will attempt to jump off to get around them.
"Well, it can't get much worse.." With a sigh, Erwin drops the mace and joins the mudwrestling pile.
Since it look like he has help for grappling the woman, Oscar decides to try again. "She's slippery as an eel that one". "We might be wasting our time". "Maybe we're better served just to beat her into submission".
CMB (+2 for everyone that is able to help.)
Ellantera, not wanting to hurt Natalya, tries to grapple her, too.
Kassandra moves to block Natalya's route escape, but doesn't try to grapple her with all the sewage and grease around.
Oscar, Uraisa and Ellantera manage to get a grip on the supernaturally slick thief, even as her eyes flutter into focus. Seeing herself surrounded she screams in fury, trying to twist away from the hands that grasp her and break free to chase after Shiv again.
Shockingly, though, even her spells cannot buy her liberty, no matter how she struggles.
"Yeah". "That's it grab her hair". "And you two fingers in the nostrils, and pull her head back".
CMB
Shiv slings the satchel back over his shoulder as he comes back around the corner into the room. He chuckles to himself as he takes in the wrestling match, "That's the way ta git dirty with the lass Salt!" He points at each person with his dagger as he addresses them, "Uraisa, Salt, El, good job gettin' the lass ready ta be trussed. Ya two little people, (pointing at Erwin and Miet) git some rope and make use of it! Galyna, stop wavin' that 'bow round and go punch her til she stops strugglin'! Kas, keep standin' there jus' like yer doin' cause the gods know I need somethin' nice ta look at in this sewer." He saunters over to the tussle as he is giving commands.
Dropping her crossbow Galyna storms over to the tangle and delivers a punch to Natalya's face.
"You like controlling people b%#@@?"
Oscar will pin her, until the others get her tied up.
Once the others press gang her, Uraisa releases her hold to find a length of rope to try and tie up the thief.
After a few moments, Natalya is trussed and bound, although she continues to scream and shout obscenities, her eyes remaining fixed on Shiv and the satchel he claimed from her.
Ellantera says, weakly because she knows they aren't listening to her, "There, you have her. Now go easy, OK?"
Tired, she goes to the pipe that had the occupant earlier. Looking in, she says, "We caught her, you can come out now."
