This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Norros kicks things off with a sharp word for the tabaxi: "You failed the moment we decided to get involved."
The unsettling words detract from his next saving throw by 3. Speaking of which... Norros casts faerie fire across the guards and tabaxi, DC 14 dex save
He felt some hope of them escaping the place before a battle proper started when Ellis stood, or rather tried to, in response to Norros urging her to action. Whatever the Tabaxi put on her veins made her fall to the couch. On the bright side, Noah thought as the situation devolved in further chaos, she won’t resist being taken from here. The problem was the guards close by her. To focus on taking the halfling would be the same as inviting opportunistic attacks from them. MaybeI should transform, he considered. On the hybrid form he was harder to hit and his resilience was substantially increased. But then it, if he was hit, there was a chance he would lose control and strike against his allies or even Moir. Besides it was hard to say how his colleages would react to his nature.
“Be sure to follow me, guys.” He said taking out his overcoat, and holding on his left arm. “And tell the others to get out.”
Deciding that the transformation was not worth the risk, the Lycan started running towards the couch, hardening his mind to take the incoming blows. He would take her in the right arm, focus all of his forces on running and jump, make the way to the window and jump beyond it.
Notes: Noah runs toward Ellis, takes her and run to the window. Upon reaching the window he jumps while holding her. Before determining if the enemy attacks hit I would like for the DM to check if I will spend Noah's reaction to use Bloodcurse of the Eyeless (since it can make an attack that would hit end up missing).
With a quick prayer to Elastine, Thordah roars into action, summoning Torstun his spititual weapon avatar and swinging at the server. He follows that up with a swing of his own from his trusty warhammer.
To Hit: 20 Damage: 7
He then will attack the server double-handed with his Warhammer:
To Hit: 17 Damage: 6
(ooc: Since Noah moved more than 30 feet away Thordahr will create a new bond between Finn and Varlan (so stay within 30 feet of each other please). Then he will cast Spiritual Weapon and attack the Tabaxi server

Finn busts into the room and really has little clue what is going on or what to expect but she followed in the two guards so they are her focus. She figures disrupting, delaying or bothering them is a worthwhile task no matter what shenanigans her teammates are up to! She considers focusing instead on the one who tried to capture her with a net but they were behind her so she'll worry about them later! Point is for the others to escape without there being solid proof she was with them.
"You stealing, cheating, lying thieves! You can't run away from the cheating at the poker tables!" she cries out in aggrieved fury, continuing to play her role. As she is screaming she runs up to the closest guard (Guard 2 preferably) and attempts to shove them to the ground!
Guard must beat 4 plus 3 with a Str or Dex check or be knocked prone...

With 30 movement speed you can reach Ellis Moir, but you cannot make it back to the window as she is 20 ft from your current position.
Bloodcurse of the eyeless will not work for opportunity attacks. Only attacks on their turn.
(OOC: I forgot to explicitly mention the use of the dash action. That is what the "focus all of his forces on running" part was.)

Its Thordahr's Turn
Noah makes it out the window and down stairs with a dash action
With a quick prayer to Elastine, Thordah roars into action, summoning Torstun his spititual weapon avatar and swinging at the server. He follows that up with a swing of his own from his trusty warhammer.
To Hit: 20 Damage: 7

Well the net throw missed
