Standarii sees several of their allies being hit hard and doesn't think they can do anything to stop the cleric from being taken down, so they use retributive strike on Quickblade (resist 5 to the general mayhem damage) -
Blue recognises Khagra as a serious threat and stabs at him twice before stepping onto the table next to Quickblade.
"You've lost! I have the high ground." rapier:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 241d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 rapier, MAP:1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (5) + 9 - 5 = 91d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Yellow steps to his attacker, Standarii, stabbing the conrasu then moving back out of his reach.
Khagra and BakBat are both hurt, but not severely.

Elixia Zielle, (active Bless, 5ft) (unconscious, 0HP)
Port Peril Barfight (Hazard)
If Elixia is still unconscious, he will take a step towards her and Lay on Hands (15 hp).
If she is awake (looks likely thanks to Luciola), he will continue to press the attack on Blue. If Blue goes down after the first attack, he will stride (path shown with green arrow) to set up a flank on Green and strike again.
Blue is an adept combatant and despite taking two blows from Standarii, it is the first strike from Quickblade that takes him down, falling in a heap off the table.
Quickblade then repositions through the calmer area.
Green steps into Khagra, stabbing at him once, then stepping back.

Elixia opens her eyes and smiles at Luciola, mouthing a "thank you" as she stands up, then concentrates on her spell to expand the Bless effect. Finally she casts shield on herself.

Standarii uses Lay on Hands on Quickblade (+12 hp and +2 AC for one round), then strides around the obstacles to end up behind Khagra, before swinging their asp coil at the last opponent.

"I think you're right Luciola, but we should also take advantage of this calm window..."
With everybody on her team hurt Elixia risks using a wide-area spell, casting a 3-action healing font that should help everyone on her side except Bakbat and no enemies.
Luciola grabs the contract, assuming it is still on the table. It's a bit awkward, being as long as she is tall in its rolled up state. She then spends her next two actions, moving as far as she can through the now pacified crowd towards the entrance.
The combined blows of Khagra and Standarii take down the last gambler, removing all the individual foes. The fight still rages in much of the bar, including around Khagra and Standarii.
Elixia pushes out a wave of positive energy, healing our heroes and bar patrons alike, ensuring most will have nothing but a sore head later.
Luciola puts herself in harm's way but again has an impressive way with words. Or maybe the patrons are so fascinated by the glowing sprite that they stop and stare.

Standarii takes advantage of the situation to stride three times, getting ready to try and quell the last bit of mayhem blocking their exit at their next opportunity.

Standarii enters the last bit of fight blocking their path out, warbling and pleading with them to let the group out...so thrashings don't have to follow behind.
Characters can continue to interact and I won't close the thread for a while. The following is what will happen overall.
Hlar navigates you back to the sandbar she originally picked you up at, leaving you with some dried squid and a large jar of fresh water. A day later, another commissioned ship travels by and offers to transport you all to Absalom. There, you present Stella Fane’s contract to Venture-Captain Ambrus Valsin, notifying him that she’s agreed to aid the Society with passage through the blockade, and that the way to Vidrian is open.
In gratitude for their service, Valsin offers an archaic wayfinder.

As per the Organized Play Foundation Community Standards, each player must decide if they will allow their characters to be damaged by friendly fire (usually via splash damage). I need to remind everyone that damaging a PC who doesn't give consent will generate infamy.

Khagra get splashed.
As a note Tea, your warning is out of date as of the May 5 Guide update.

Fixed out of date sentance implying that engaging in PvP awards infamy. Non-consensual PvP is never allowed.
Old Bit:
In keeping with the “Explore, Report, Cooperate” motto of the Pathfinder Society, engaging in non-consensual character-versus-character conflict is prohibited. While accidental friendly fire happens due to missed attack rolls or other factors, players must obtain the consent of other players before deliberately including fellow PCs in damaging effects. Engaging in character-versus-character conflict will award Infamy points and may render a character unplayable. This rule does not apply in situations where a character is not acting of their own free will, such as if they’re being mind-controlled by an NPC and forced to attack a fellow Pathfinder.

I'm okay with splash damage - accidents happen. Besides, if I'm in a position where I get splashed, it's my own stupid fault and I probably deserve it.

Hi! Just fyi I usually am only online really late at night US time, after 1am central but I'll keep up with posting however I can! Elixia shouldn't be in the thick of battle or else something is really wrong but she's fine taking splash!

Greetings program!
Splash damage is okay here as well, although you might get an emotionally hurt "but...why?" from your naive companion in response :P
Also, to note, I am one of the leads running PaizoCon this year, so some evenings I may get tied up in meetings unexpectedly. If you haven't seen me post by around this time (2am US Eastern, UTC -04) and you're waiting on me, feel free to move along without me. Assume Standarii is spinning their head around taking everything in with a sense of wonderment (will make sense after character intros).
I will be on holiday from tomorrow morning (British Summer Time/GMT +1) until Wednesday. I will still be able to post from my phone but I will be slower.
Scorching Ray doesn't trigger your blood magic - it's not a bloodline or focus spell - and without Dangerous Sorcery or Burn it!, I don't see any other damage adds.

I need to apologize for not posting over the last few days. I've been dealing with a minor emergency with my cat's health. You have my word that I will have a full update posted within the next few hours.
