So we have two little combats going now: one in the courtyard, and one in the dininghall. I'm putting you all in teh situations according to last known positions: Eye and Jack outside, Fiddler, Cho, Dar inside
outside
Glow menacingly at the hostiles, but remain out of their reach.
Glaring. menacing. Dodging.
Yup, Foxfire time. This should distract them long enough for teammates to subdue
you cast the illusion of fire onto them. They begin freaking and beating wildly at their clothes. Now to wait for your teammates.
inside
Hm. Sneak up to one of these new hostiles and give their joints a good and thorough stress test.
you leave your little hat with the coins you just made sitting by the stool. It is immediately snatched up by some asshole. Oh well, there's still the copper from your earlier performance.
You attempt to sneak up behind a guy, but get tripped and go rolling underfoot. You get stepped on at least once.
((Oh, sleep breaks the illusion? I guess that makes sense. It's probably for the best, anyway.))
Be woken up by the commotion. If I arrive to the fight and there's still enemy combatants, enchant myself to have better durability and strength. If the spell works, charge in and start ripping out the enemies' achilles tendons, or possibly lower leg muscles if they have particularly thick boots.
If my allies defuse the fight before I get there, go to a nice vantage point and watch the crowd for troublemakers. Attempt to conceal my collar, too.
You manage to cast a little shield over yourself. it's not much, but it might help. You dash in with the kind of shriek only an angry cat can make, and latch firmly, teath and claws, onto the back of one combatant's leg. He goes down backward, screaming.
Cho-Ja
slap the hostiles with my envenomed tail.
you shoulder your way through the crowd with an angry his and whack one of the fighters right in the head. he goes down screaming. Two guys are down, but the crowd is a tad thick and it's still a bit volatile right now. This could either erupt into a full blown barfight, or end as quickly as it started.
