((Okay, have been having a hard time getting in the mood.))
Room to join? I have an idea too, if you'd be willing to take another player.
((Sure, go ahead. As long as the inn exists, the RP is open. If the inn's destroyed... I'll find a way.))
((You're probably not going to get into the current fight though, as you have to be added to the Characters spoiler.))

Spoiler: Characters (click to show/hide)
((Well, that's a confusing action, I'll just assume you mean stab. Oh, and you aim for torso by default.))
Nix stabs at the Flame Man, Gorm and the three warriors slash.
Nix: d20 = 18
Gorm: d20 = 8
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 4
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 6
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 19
Nix and one of the chainclad warriors hit, and fire starts to emerge from the wounds.
"Heh, may have gotten a bit ahead of myself, no matter, a flame will always burn."
The Flame Man slashes at Gorm with sword and newly formed flame claw.
Flame Man (Heavily Wounded): d20 + 2 = 17 + 2 = 19
Flame Man (Heavily Wounded): d20 + 2 = 17 + 2 = 19
Flame Man (Heavily Wounded): d20 + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10
The two slashes hit Gorm, cutting through the chainmail, and dealing a total of 8 damage. Gorm falls backwards, unable to continue fighting.
"Haha, my first kill... no, wait, you're still alive, I'll fix that."
Nix and the three warriors attack again.
Nix: d20 = 2
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 5
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 2
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 6
Somehow, you all miss.
"Oh hey, not so fast. You'll get your turn."
Flame Man walks up to Gorm, and then rams his sword into his chest, burying it deep, damaging the chainmail, and kills him instantly. Then he lets go of the sword, grabs Gorm's axe, and slashes at Nix with his clawed flame hand.
Flame Man (Heavily Wounded): d20 + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16
His claws hit Nix, dealing 3 damage.
"Now I'll kill you."
"Another flame will burn."
The sword is still burning in Gorm's chest.

((In order to kill a living creature, you have to either do a lethal attack, or reduce their HP to -X, where X is the max HP (-10 for 10 HP creatures).
When someone is reduced to 0 HP, they're simply unable to fight, but also unable to defend themselves.
Lethal attacks are either crits, deal half of max HP in damage (cutting and piercing), or all of max HP in damage (crushing).))

Recoiling from the fiery claws, Nix backs up, and throws the javelin at the monster's chest.

((Heh, more meat to the grinder.))

Spoiler: Characters (click to show/hide)
The inn is silent, people are looking at a group engaged in combat, there's a dead Elf on the ground, a sword in his chest, the flames on the sword move down.
As the flames enter the Elf's corpse, the wound starts to glow, and the Elf wakes to life, his eyes start to glow golden yellow.
"Wh-wha? W-what, is... this place?"
The Elf sits up, and pulls the sword out from his chest. The blood has burnt away, but there's something on the sword, writing, but in runes, which you cannot read.

Back to the combating group, three chainclad humans, a spearwielding human, and a man possessed by flame, with his left arm a fiery claw, and he wields an axe in his right hand.
"Heh heh, another Flame has joined."
Nix backs away and throws his javelin at the Flame Man.
Nix: d20 = 2
The javelin flies past the flame man, and goes at the bartender, who barely dodges it.
((Had that been a botch, you might've hit the guy.))
"Hey! Watch where you throw!"
The three warriors attack.
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 6
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 6
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 4
They all miss.
"Oh ho, not so good now that your Elf is dead."
Flame Man attacks the chainclad warrior without a shield.
Flame Man (Heavily Wounded): d20 = 17
Flame Man (Heavily Wounded): d20 = 8
He hits once, his axe cutting through the chainmail.
"How you like it?"

Another round, Nix re positions himself and throw yet another javelin while the wounded chainclad warrior backs away and changed to his bow.
Nix: d20 = 6
You miss, and the javelin hits the wall behind the Flame Man. The two chainclad warriors attack the Flame Man.
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 17
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 6
One of them hits, now fire starts to spew uncontrollably from the Flame Man.
"Agh, ugh, d-damn. N-not, now. Y-you!"
The Flame Man spews fire at the Chainclad Warriors, who try to avoid it.
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 8
Chainclad Warrior: d20 = 11
Neither make it, and are engulfed in flames, burning them, they scream in pain as they continue to burn, while the Flame Man runs past Nix, and towards the door.
The chainclad warriors take more damage from the fire, until one of the bystanders throws water at them. They had gotten some water from the town well while you were fighting.

((Okay, just plop your character down somewhere.))

Nix adjusts himself to the flame man's every movement, and seeing him about to leave the inn, aims a javelin at his leg, and lets it fly.

((Sorry for the delay.))

Spoiler: Characters (click to show/hide)
Nix throws his javelin and Isolde shoots her bow at the running Flame Man. The bow wielding chainclad warrior shoots as well.
Nix: d20 = 9
Isolde: d20 = 5
Chainclad Warrior (Wounded): d20 = 7
The projectiles whiz by the Flame Man, and at a person trying to stop him, he dodges and the arrow and javelin embed themselves in the door.
The Flame Man shoulder charges the door.
Flame Man (Barely Standing): d20 = 11
*CRASH*
The door busts open, and the Flame Man runs out of the inn.
The chainclad

Nix dashes outside, another javelin in hand, and surveys his surroundings.

((what do I see, and how many javelins do I have left?  Or am I out?))

((Oh right, almost forgot. I'm losing my grip on things.))
Spoiler: Bump and Charsheet (click to show/hide)
((Hm... I'm not going to accept it just yet, I'll just ask some questions, because she's not quite fitting in here.))

((So is her training incomplete? If it's complete, why would she only be given padded armor and a sword?
Also, no long swords, those swords have yet to be developed. All swords instead are one handed. So you might want a shield.
Except... hm... Actually, that's an interesting idea.))

Two Handed Sword
This is a new kind of sword, not common. If you want one, you'll have to have it specially crafted. Because of this, there's no solid price on it.
The two handed sword has a longer blade, but also a longer tang, so the balance is still the same, but it's also heavier.
It deals 4 DMG instead of 3, so it gives you more damage, at the cost of being able to use a shield.
Also, it's a pain to sheathe, you'll have to carry the scabbard over your shoulder, because of length.

((Okay, made a rule for a two handed sword, so the option is there.))

Spoiler: Characters (click to show/hide)
Nix rushes outside, to try and catch up to the Flame Man.
The shield of the Flame Man is extinguished, but there's some strange heat radiating from it.
Nix: d20 = 14
Flame Man (Barely Standing): d20 = 5
Nix manages to get close enough to throw his third and last javelin.
Nix: d20 = 16
It flies through the air and hits the Flame Man in the back, who falls to his knees.
"One of many."
"D-damn."
He falls forward, planting his face in the dirt.

Outside the Great Skull Inn is the village of Lindfall, named such because of a Wyvern (specifically, a Lindworm) that was slain here, said to be big enough to eat people whole.
There's a number of buildings around, even a village well. You can easily recognize the Alderman's building, as it's decorated, in contrast to the plain houses around here.
There's also a shrine nearby, for the worship of the Celestial (Sun, Moon, and Stars). The Celestial can bestow great boons upon you, for a price.
Then there's the barracks and village blacksmith. The village militia is busy training, just in case the dragon attacks, can never be too careful.
The blacksmith is usually occupied just fixing the village tools, and even making new ones from time to time.
But with the influx of people, he has made some openings in his schedule for weaponsmithing.
There's a market in view too, where padded armor, shields, axes, spears, javelins, swords, and knives are made. There's also a bowyer, he sells bows and arrows.

"Oy, Flame Guy, why're you burnin'?"
"D-damn you."
A Harpy watched the spectacle, and is now lightly kicking the body of the Flame Man.
Harpies, like women, but with wings, and quite greedy. They're fast and agile, but also weak and fragile.
Harpies are exclusively female, somehow, it's not entirely certain how they reproduce. Also, their wings and arms are separate, so they can still use weapons,
Her feathers are reddish brown, and she got quite the wingspan, even for a Harpy.
Flame Man is still on fire, though it seems mostly like normal fire.

((Yeah, I sorta made you throw the javelin anyway, because I thought you would.
Anyway, you have 3 javelins by default, as I find that to be a good number.))

Nix, drawing his knife once more, walks to the prone Flame Man.  Holding the blade to the thing's neck, he asks:

"What.  Are.  You?"

((You don't carry longer swords over your back. You'd need a special half-sheath for that - it has to only cover half of the blade. It's not physically possible to draw the sword otherwise.

And uh, sure. Yes. Definitely. That's exactly what I was thinking of. Yes.))
Also, it's a pain to sheathe, you'll have to carry the scabbard over your shoulder, because of length.
((Actually, I never said back scabbard, you carry it over your shoulder, as in, like a rifle with a sling.
That way you can take the scabbard off, so you can unsheathe the blade.
It's a heavier alternative to the half-sheath, but also protects the entire blade from rust.))

((I'm no stranger to the "no back scabbard" thing, I like that people are paying more attention to the details.
Anyway, if you want it that way, re-post your character sheet with the changes.))

I gaze into its milky depths, searching the wheat and sugar for the meanings I can never find.
It's like tea leaf divination, but with cartoon leprechauns.
There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

((Sorry, got caught up in stuff.))
((wait... so... we throw the scabbard away? How... how does that work? This is getting really hard to picture))
((Well, yes. Having the scabbard for such a long sword would make it rather clumsy.
So the options are either to put it on your back after having unsheathed the sword, or throw it away, to pick it up after the battle.
The choice of having those half scabbards is a practical one, as two handed swords aren't really that common yet.))

((Basically it's my choice in the setting. I choose to stick to the viking/barbarian aesthetic, and that one isn't all that keen on two handed swords.
But I will allow the existence of such swords, because big monsters require big weapons (also may explain why two handed swords appeared if I continue the setting).))

((It's a bit complicated.))

Spoiler: Characters (click to show/hide)
Dobby Duff swiftly exits the room, a look of shame upon his face. He is still not in view of the people of the inn, as he is upstairs.
One of the ladies who was with him are laughing in the room, quite loudly.

Meanwhile, outside. Nix has drawn his knife and is holding it at the Flame Man's neck, asking what he is.
"I was you, the flames live in death."
"I'm not telling you anything."
"The flames live, the flames kill. Beware the Dragon."
The Flame Man seems oblivious to the second voice.

The Harpy is still here.
"So, what's happ'nin'?"
"I will burn, y-you wont stop us. We will burn."
