Club DEX: 4

Sword DEX: 3

Unarmed tries to grapple Zenodor: 16

Unarmed tries to grapple Pepin: 19

Round 1 summary... sort of:

The thugs with weapons attack, those without try to grapple.

Zenodor uses all 3 blasts to kill his thug with the club.

Pepin uses a flamethrower to roast his thug with the club and Randall's thug with the sword, they both look crispy. (personally can't see a cone effect hitting more than 1 target if all are in melee with you, but theater of the mind suggests 2 targets are hit with a 15 foot cone... this is my compromise :))

Randall strike with both Lightbringer and his spectral weapon, both look severely bruised.

Round 2 begins:

Club vs. Pepin Attack: Attack: 6 Damage: 2

Club vs. Randall Attack: 5 Damage: 4

(let's try again)

Club vs. Pepin Attack: 2 Damage: 5

Club vs. Randall Attack: 18 Damage: 3

Sword vs. Zonodor Attack: 7 Damage: 7

Sword vs. Pepin Attack: 4 Damage: 9

Sword vs. Randall Attack: 5 Damage: 5

Round 2:

(Zenodor is up. Pepin is next, and then Randall... all 3 in a row, lol)

@Tempe

You find it easy to meditate as you currently have the whole shrine to yourself. There is that odd serenity and peace that only comes when no one else is present.

@ Petcan

"Where others go? They been gone long time. How come we stay behind? Skrud no good to help but Skrud think Petcan very good. Skrud confused why new friends leave Petcan behind?"

Randall:

Sighing at the unknowable stupidity of street thugs, Randall steps in close to his allies and conjures defending spirits, then he wallops another miscreant for good measure.

”If you lot had any sense you would sign up for the war effort instead of committing suicide by adventurer,” he says wearily.

Spirit Guardians spring up around Randall and his companions and target only the thugs.

15 foot radius, DC 18 Wisdom Save for half damage:  8

Spiritual Weapon:  Attack: 14 Damage: 16

Quote from Brian_Avery >>

Unarmed tries to grapple Zenodor: 16 

Contesting roll (Dex, Athletics) against the grapple: 15

Z then continues to blast away at the nearest thug (presumably the one grappling him) 

Eldritch Blast 1: Attack: 22 Damage: 12

Eldritch Blast 2: Attack: 12 Damage: 14

Eldritch Blast 3: Attack: 28 Damage: 16

Tempe says a prayer after meditating pays his tithe and wonders outside to find the others.

(@Z ranged spell attack while someone next to you means disadvantage)

Pepin takes his warhammer and imbues it with booming energy before striking at a Thug nearby, making sure that his cannon can fry one or two others behind or in front of him.

Action, booming blade: Attack: 27 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.

BA flamethrower: DC17 or 18 fire damage.

Unable to parse dice roll.

2nd unable to parse dice roll; so from gamelog: 11 bludgeoning and 11 thunder

Pepin's Sword's DEX save: 16

Randall's Club's DEX save: 6

Zenodor's Sword's WIS save: 8

Pepin's Sword's WIS save: 5

Pepin's Unarmed's WIS save: 9

Randall's Club's WIS save: 8

Randall's Sword's WIS save: 2

(All the rest died to other attacks this round.)

This leaves only 3, and after Randall's spiritual weapon attack against Pepin's Sword only 2.

Zenodor's Sword and Pepin's Unarmed are the only 2 left.

WIS: 16

The last 2 are turning and fleeing, or attempting to at least.

(The combat is over because these last 2 will no longer fight, regardless of how you all decide to end this.)

@Randall

Trying to think of it from their perspective you realize their numbers (8 to 3) more than outnumbered your small group (missing 2 PC's) by 2 to 1. Add to that these troubled times and you realize many citizens may be losing hope and turning to desperation and despair.

Dusting himself off, Zenodor glances with disgust at the running thugs. He then approaches the woman in the mud, and will offer a hand to help her to her feet, and will help to pick up her basket and belongings.

"We hope that you are unharmed. It appears we arrived just in time. What terrible times we live in that such thugs would set on innocent citizens!

Tell me, what has been going on? What are such ruffians up to? And why are all the shops closed?

I know of course about the siege and the Goblins - that is why we are here in fact. But so far it seemed that the city was coping well and all was in order. Has this changed?"

 (Good point. Will remember next time. But probably too late now anyway)

Randall:

As the combat ends, Randall releases his concentration on the Spirit Guardians and raises his holy symbol.  He channels a thread of healing to everyone—enough to just barely rescue the thugs from the edge of death (1hp to all alive thugs) and any spillover to the potentially damaged elf lady.

”Lathander has granted you your lives.  Leave and make better choices!” says Randall.
