This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
“Birdie” wonders if the “servant” is autonomous or under direct control of its master. He will decide to focus on the “master” and hope that stopping him will end the encounter.
Bonus Action: Fighting Spirit (giving advantage to himself on all weapon attacks during his turn)
Free Action: He will draw the automatic pistol from his belt and see how this thing works.
Attack: 20 Damage: 7
Elven Accuracy allows one more 1d20 to hit: 14
Movement: looking for cover or an alleyway, otherwise move to provide some separation to mitigate AoE.
DM ruling needed if he is entitled to a second attack (reloading property vs. “automatic” 15 shot capacity), ignore or apply what’s below.
The robed man raises a magical shield in the nick of time to avoid being shot, the bullets plinking off the barrier inches from his body
As for cover, there are a few boxes and barrels on the sidewalk, each providing half cover. Alternatively, you could backpedal down the street, or duck into one of the burning buildings, which should be save to hide in for a minute or two before the fire spreads too much.
(OOC-aaaa im so sorry for blocking your shots that you spent resources on, please forgive me 😩🙏)

“Birdie” will shout, “HE’S GOT A SHIELD!” (Hoping everyone remembers that it lasts til the start of his turn - meta, I know. Now I need to seek your forgiveness.)
He will move to unburning half-cover and weigh his options.
Gianna is concerned about the innocents in the area as well as her new found crew. Are there any injured bystanders?
She also sees no harm come to the robed figure when Birdie attacked him with a thunder wand. "Ah, if he can be ignoring the thunder attack maybe is the metal man can being hurt."
mmmm choices.
If there is an injured person close by, she will wrap her hand in a corner of her cloak and use Hand of Healing on them for 3
---
If not, she turns to the metal man, wipes her spear on her wrist and makes with the stabbing! poke poke! Attack: 13 Damage: 12 , on a hit DC 12 CON save or 6 poison damage.
Then she spins and Flurry of Blows kicking at the metal man.
kick! Attack: 12 Damage: 7 , on a hit DC 12 CON save or become poisoned.
knee to the groin! Attack: 25 Damage: 5 , on a hit DC 12 CON save or become poisoned.

There are no bystanders, no. They cleared out pretty fast when the fight started. Ceesh is very injured, so the Hand of Healing can go to him.
The spear glances off its plating, along with the first kick. The second kick however, connects, but does little damage and fails to poison it.

Caught completely off guard by your sneak attack, the robed man looks quite surprised that an arrow managed to slip past his barrier, and even more surprised that it hurt so much.
Coriana is up.

In the interests of keeping things moving, Coriana's turn will be held. You may take you turn any time before the next round begins.
The robed man looks a bit worried about his grievous arrow wound and calls out:
"Servant, our time has come! We will channel our gifts to destroy these thieving lowlifes!"
With these words, a gray mist surrounds the robed man, who vanishes without a trace.
The armored figure takes note of the man's words. The glow from its helmet intensifies, and with a loud whirring, begins to shimmer. Within a second or two, the armored figure has gone completely invisible, but the whirring noise continues on from the same location.
Robin is up.
