As the gnomes welcome the party, the brim of Landrae's hat was tipped just low enough to protect her eyes from the deluge of colours that sprang forth. She quickly ducks back away from the gnomes and responds to the welcome, "Is bewitching folk the only way that you can get people to buy your goods?" She whispers something short under her breath, tension evident, her poise one of readiness to react as she awaits an answer.
Mio quickly ducks out of the shop and around the corner to avoid the cone of the spraying color before returning to her original position behind Landrae, this time with her bow in hand. She doesn't want to get caught unprepared just in case this is an opening to an ambush and not just a gnomish welcome.
“I don’t know exactly, but a wash of bright colors erupted from them and now I can’t see!”
Out loud to the gnomes: “What kind of treatment is this for potential customers?!” Anger begins to well up within her. It is as though a storm is brewing in her chest and about to burst forth. She just manages to keep it under control, since she wasn’t actually hurt, but it is right under the surface.

The three gnomes act innocent enough, but it's as if they don't know what they are doing is wrong. They continue their sales pitch by moving swiftly to a tray of cookies on one of the counters. "Here are some of the best chocolate chips cookies in all of Neverwinter!", they shout in unison as they hold up the tray together above their heads. "And next...", they let go of the tray but hangs in midair.
"...is the wonderfully delicious apple pie!", as the three gnomes pickup the pie in the same process.
The previous tray of cookies in the air starts to vibrate erratically; then stops with a high pitch, "Ding!"
"By the light of the Forge! What tomfoolery is this?" The dwarf already in the shop shouts as he flails around blindly. "If I could see you I'd be pulling your beards out!"
He hears the shop door open "Oh great, now you've left me here..." The sound of the gnomes singing gives him shivers. "Get out while you..." Unfortunately his warning comes too late as the song finishes before he can.
Landrae, ready for further shenanigans reacts quicker than she had against the rats. "Mio, stuff an arrow in their pie hole!" the bard shouts as she breaks away to the left of the group and flanks the pastry wizards. "You should have made rock cakes instead!" She hurls the insult at the nearest gnome, taking to any cover available from the ensuing food fight.
#1 (3xGnome Wizards' Wisdom Save 7 Damage: 3) One of the gnomes gasps as if he was struck on the cheek, "B-but I did make roc cakes!", he says as he points to the bird design cakes on the far wall.
Mio is still not quite sure if this is an all-out attack or just very very dangerous and unfunny pranks. Regardless, she finds it a bit difficult to properly shoot in this confined space so she decides to go into "Burn the Witch" protocol, closing in on the wizard Landrae mocked and lunging with her rapier.
Rapier (non-lethal): 15 Dmg: 1 Pierce EDIT: Forgot to add DEX to damage. It should be 4.not 1.
+Sneak Attack if there is an ally within 5ft of the gnome Mio attacked: 4
EDIT2: Using Barding Inspiration on the above attack roll. 4
Since this post was a mess with the bardic inspiration and forgetting sneak attack and forgetting damage mods, I'm just posting the final results here: Rapier: 15+4 (bardic) Dmg: 4 + Sneak: 4
Vondus calms himself and listens carefully for the direction of the gnomes, focusing on their singing and the rustling of their ribes. (Perception Unable to parse dice roll.)
When he is comfortable with his decision he moves in that direction and swings his quarterstaff in a tight arc. No force, just letting the weight of the staff dictating the speed (non lethal).
Attack 7 for 5
((Attack made with disadvantage due to blind condition. Hope that's correctly rolled))
((Don't want a Manipulated Dice roll so I'll redo that Perception roll 9))
#2 Mio's rapier thrust catches one of the gnomes by the collar of his robe and lifts him into the air! "Oh boy! I got a disgruntled customer!", the gnome shouts happily, "You guys go on ahead! Show them more of the sweets!". The other gnomes reply with a cheerful "O-Kay!".
#3 Vondus's swing attempt with his staff while blinded does land a hit! On a stack of nearby bagels that shoot across the floor!
#4 The tray of cookies speed toward Sir Seigfryk(Dex Save, 12 @Disadvantage(Blinded). Damage: 19non-lethal). Two remaining gnomes let go of the apple pie as it remains floating in midair and they move hastily across the counter in the opposite directions.
The gnome going left stops to pick up another dessert, "This isss theee bessstchocolate cakeyou will ever taste!"
The gnome going right, "And here is the smoothestred velvet cake that will melt in your mouth!"
Marva blinks several times as her vision clears again. Taking in the various desserts hovering in the air and the gnomes’ undiminished enthusiasm, she attempts to grab the gnome heading for the red velvet cake on the right. “Stop this nonsense!” (She wants to grab them by the collar, lift them in the air, and possibly give them a little shake to get their attention. Athletics roll for the grapple attempt: 16 )

#4 (Sir Seigfryk Dex Save 4 vs DC12) The tray of cookies slam into the blinded knight with a spray of cookie crumbs and a mighty CLANK!!! Sir Seigfrykstubbles a few steps- then falls flat on his back with a cookie over each eye. Sir Seigfryk is unconscious!
#5 Marvagrasps for the gnome on the right as he tries to slip away (Acrobatics18).
Sir Seigfryk is snapped from his daydreaming by the eccentric bakers. The light from their surprising onslaught blinds him! He staggers back two steps, rubbing his bleary eyes with one hand and finding the pommel of his sword with the other.
His vision clears just in time to catch sight of a bundle of chocolate chip cookies hurtling toward him! He experiences an odd mixture of nostalgic delight and blinding pain as the cookies collide with his open mouth, and he falls unconscious.
#5 Marva grabs the small gnome up by his collar and begins shaking him! "Lookie! I got a customer's attention too!", the gnome shouts happily, "This is wonderful for business!" All three gnome shout in unison, "HURRAY!"
Aghast that the knight has been downed by so frivolous a foe, Landrae gestures towards him as she utters, "Be careful of the pie, this is no place to die."
Turning her attention to the gnomes again, she charges towards the gnome that hoisted the red velvet cake, "Don't you dare waste that cake!". She makes an attack with her dagger's pommel as she closes on the rascally wizard.

#1 Landrae'srhyme awakens the knight from his cookie-coma(is still prone) and her dagger's pommel smashes into the gnomes smiling face! However, the gnome wizard keeps smiling even as his nose breaks off from his face and lands of the floor. "Haha! You got my nose!", he says excitedly. There is no blood on his face or on the floor. (Hiting this gnome felt like striking a brickwall.)
Mio is not having it. She makes her way over the counter to the Gnome Landrae stuck and with her own rapier, bashes it in the side of the head with her rapier hilt.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
It starts with shadows, then blurry outlines and finally the crisp images he's used to seeing. Vondus' vision returns to normal. He looks around the room as he kicks at the bagels someone has knocked over. In a booming voice he tries to talk the gnomes out of their current course of action. "Damn you half baked gnomes. CUT IT OUT! We all just want to buy something. No need to try and convince us. If you stop this onslaught we can get down to business."
As the gnomes welcome the party, the brim of Landrae's hat was tipped just low enough to protect her eyes from the deluge of colours that sprang forth. She quickly ducks back away from the gnomes and responds to the welcome, "Is bewitching folk the only way that you can get people to buy your goods?" She whispers something short under her breath, tension evident, her poise one of readiness to react as she awaits an answer.
