The cloaked figure speaks a hushed chant under their breath and conjures their invisible Mage Hand into existence as they take a step away from the table to hide. A devilish smile contorts to their face as they start slinking back with a roll of 16 for Stealth.
“Sure thing!” Vezda smiles, but pauses as she looks around behind the bar. She turns to her new barkeep friend, “Can you keep a secret? Oh, and where’s your scraps?”
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The barkeeps eyebrows raise, "A secret?" he seems to chuckle for a moment, though its hard to tell with his strange physiology.
"My tentacles are sealed." he points toward a large barrel at the end of the bar filled with kitchen slops.
Payax you slip into the background unnoticed by the others as you mage hand is conjured into existence.
Syver the orc eyes you warily and his compatriots share nervous glances, but it does not deter them from their task as they press Lina for the money. (Syver take inspiration, as you managed to make the bugger nervous)
"Money now Lina, or its broken bones as a down payment."
Seeing a few of you preparing to back her up at least Lina appears to be a little more confidant.
"With all due respect to Mr Sticks you can go **** yourself Grippa, I'll make my payment and the only bones broken are gonna be yours if you dont piss off right now."
"Right lads, it looks like we need to break some skulls."
COMBAT ROUND ONE : (Vezda you can resolve your interactions with the barkeep as a free action).
Syver uses a bonus action to glare at Grippa, marking him as his vengeful target with vow of emnity. Before he swings his warhammer round at him for a 14 to hit. Which if it hits it deals 8 points of damage.
Syver you lock on to Grippa and give a mighty swing of your hammer. The Orc skips back to avoid your blow with a startled snarl. He's quick for his size!
The other three thugs stand ready behind him.
Payax and Vezda you currently stand at mid-range, the rest of you are in close combat.

"Perfect! Then keep quiet about what you see!" She winks then darts for the barrel of slops. Glancing over her shoulder in time to see Syver swing his warhammer, she plunges her metallic arm into the barrel of slops with a chaotic grin. After a moment of searching, the wires find a nice, round-ish object to roast. As she lifts her prosthetic out, she pulls out a flaming sphere and chucks it at one of Grippa's lads. She then takes a second to readjust her arm.
Fire Bolt (Subtle Cast): 22 to hit ; 8 fire damage

The cloaked figure begins to knock an arrow into his shortbow before thinking of a devious idea. A quick peek over a chair lets the figure guide the Mage Hand as a bonus action over to Grippa as the hand is directed to pull their hat over their eyes with a Sleight of Hand roll of 25 as they take a shot toward them. The arrow flies as the figure attacks from a stealthed position for a 26 to hit for 13 piercing damage with Sneak Attack.
Vezda you launch your flaming projectile at one of the goons and hit her in the side of the face. With a scream of pain she tries to wipe away the burning residue as she fixes her eyes on the bar and you.
"Grunt *****!" she snarls.
Payax your trick works a treat as you use your mage hand to slam down the cap over Grippas eyes.
"What the!!"
Your bolt slams into the Orcs shoulder with a meaty thud.
(Grippa is considered blind until the end of his next turn due to a combination of the hat trick and the successful hit)
