Azig looks in where they had been. Not wanting to actually search he calls out, "Anyone in here? It's time to leave. This building is on fire...." "Does anyone have flint and steel? I wasn't thinking and don't have anything with me for starting a fire...." He'll watch from across the street.
"Good. We can light the fire, watch a bit to be sure we aren't hurting anyone, then head to the castle.... Right? Unless it's too late, then we go tomorrow."
Azig finishes up his stew and drink and hears the anger in the dwarf's voice. "Valid point. You'll notice that Daranil mentioned Lamm's performance? Sometimes he talks like that as if life were just some big play. Don't take anything that he says like that at face value. None of us would ever consider creating undead, even from a waste of skin such as Lamm. He's dead and his soul should be well on the way to his 'final reward'...." He pushes away from the table a bit and listens. Does it still sound like an active battle outside? "I would like to finish the job though. We weren't able to find Zellara's head or hands so we can't give her the proper burial. She did request that if we failed that we burn the place down so she could rest in peace. I don't want to have to fight through a mob to do that. How is it going outside?
Azig takes a taste of the stew and smiles. "All good for me. How much?" He digs out some coin and pays his part.
"I think just a vegetable stew for me. Thanks!"
Azig takes a seat across from Hiogryl. He replies in dwarven, ”More the fools who try to take the Father of Creation’s weapon from Toragdan.” He glances up to the waiter and says, ”I’ll start with a mug of ale for myself and our new friend.” He returns his gaze to Hiogryl. ”I’m Azig Bohrs. Thanks for sharing your table. The city has gone mad.”
"Preferably not close to anything breakable or dangerous." He points his rapier to the Red Lady Inn. "That way. Perhaps our most intimidating types could lead?"
You had to 'step out' to check on something? Would account for not being in the melee.
Azig pulls his rapier and looks around. "Weapons out and ready guys. The crowd should keep their distance if we look dangerous."
Everyone should be level 2 https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75j49fp/gameplay&page=9#419
Sounds good!
Azig glances around at the 'discussion'. "Well, I'm sure the Queen will want her jewelry back. And earning the favor of royalty can be a good thing. Let's get the copies made and contact the authorities, then head to the queen's castle."
Azig continues staring at the brooch, listening to the others. "No. We go to the authorities. We tell them that we confronted Lamm to get something that he had stolen. The deck. And that he attacked us. We killed him in self defense, and ran off his accomplices. Then we searched for other evidence. We show the information that we found. And we mention that we found something that we think belongs to the Queen. We don't show it unless we have to but tell them we need to get word to the Queen's people."
Azig studies the brooch, turning it over and over, hardly believing what he sees. ”Ah…. guys? This brooch is. I mean I think… I’m almost certain. I mean, I’m certain that this thing belongs to the Queen. And there’s a reward for it! I can’t imagine how that dirt bag got it. But I think we should take it to her. It looks valuable, and I mean, the Queen!”
Azig takes a look at the brooch.
Azig looks around as the others peruse the ledger. "We need to find Zellara's head and hands if we can. Or burn this place down. Lamm and his men are gone so I don't think burning it down serves any good...." If anyone follows Azig leads the group to search, very carefully searching for traps and any other sort of dangers. Remembering the croc he stays as far from water as he can.
Azig is startled by the ghost. Oddly not frightened. "Yes. This Harrow deck is hers. We went to her home." He addresses the ghost directly. "I'm sorry there wasn't a better outcome from this. But hopefully you can rest in peace with this monster dead. What should we do with your deck? And your home?"
Azig picks up the deck of cards again, wiping the blood off as well as he can and looking at the pictures on them. "I don't know how these things work, but I hope we can clean this one up...." "I think we should take the gems to a professional. They look pretty valuable, but I'm not a jeweler."
"Sorry. I thought maybe 'cause dwarves are know as the best miners and such. but maybe I was thinking metals, not stones? I didn't mean to offend you." "They are pretty and might be worth a bit of coin."
"I think we should still search the rest of this place. I'm sure the jerk had books, records of his money. And he probably has other valuable stuff hidden with them. The authorities should know of everything he was involved in, and maybe get his allies in crime!"
Azig takes the items and stands. "The way they spoke I thought there might be some great stash of platinum coins. Thoric? Do you know gems?"
He hands the sack to anyone that might be able to appraise what they are worth, then looks at the bloody deck of cards. "Bloody likely from the owner of the deck. Can anyone detect if there's any magic on these?"
Azig points out the needle trap to the others. "If it's the same as before get ready to restrain me again." He puts all of his weapons out of reach and then tries to disable the trap and open the safe.
Azig focuses his attention on the safe. "but we still need to open this thing. And the jerk might have it trapped as well.... Anybody see notes or keys or anything that might help?"
Basically taking 20 to open it if I'm able? 27 to open: Crap! Unless that 26 opens it I believe the 1 breaks it....
Azig starts searching.... "Is that it?
Azig shakes his head as the humans wisely turn and run. "OK. Did they just mention a safe?"
I agree with Bridgette. Maps are nice, but these battles weren't very complicated. Azig is a really weak fighter and is built mainly to aid another in a fight. But, using the theater of the mind I can just say that he tries to position himself by whoever he is trying to aid. If that is possible and I get my aid another roll the GM can add the +3 to hit to that person. I'm liking the pace of this game. So many others are dragging and dying! Now can we kill those flunkies and search this place for spoils!?!
Azig stands "tall" beside Lem and snickers. "Or, I don't recognize humans any better than you recognize rats. So you could turn and run away and maybe the others won't be able to pick you out of a line-up for the authorities either. Keep in mind that Lamm never intended to pay you a severance package, so there's nothing here for you anymore but pain.
Azig yells in his best high pitched scream. "Lamm put out the lights. Kill him for breaking the truce!"
Azig steps away from the three men. They've dropped weapons but might pick them back up and he doesn't want to be in the middle of that....
Where is everybody? Don't ghost us!!!
Azig spins around. Seeing the group of thugs he chugs his last extract and charges into the middle of them.
"Stop talking and kill him!" Azig throws a dart at the hated man, missing him completely....
Azig spits with contempt. "Sounds like you just lost the last bit of value that your life had!"
"You think you're going away? After the crimes you've committed, the people you've hurt. The families you've destroyed? I only hope the devils treat you properly when your soul arrives in hell."
Azig stays out of the way of the bigger, warrior types.
If he saves he isn't held in place but still takes the effects of the tanglefoot bag: reducing the attack by 2, dex by 4, and movement speed by half. Not sure what dex an alligator would have.... LOL. Never mind. Just read the game thread.
Was the gator affected by the Adhesive Spittle?
Seeing the gator Azig moves forward as stated in the spoiler.
Can Azig see the alligator? And can he get to 15' from it?: Seeing the dangerous reptile Azig moves forward taking one of his flasks to his lips, then he spits at it.
"It happens. Let's get the jerk!"
Can Azig aid?:
"That's him! Get him!!!" Azig tries to scurry after Lamm but likely has to wait for others to get through the door before him.
