The human-form wolfbrother stands aghast: "A she-wolf.. brother? Was the name not clear enough? Our blessing will not to be diluted. Have you not the scent? You will never be one of us and you have failed to heed our warnings. You shall not leave this alley alive!"
"Yes, I smell the putrid scent of misogynistic sewage!"Gravity grits her teeth in anger while clenching her fists to draw fresh blood. She will attempt to dodge any incoming attacks by taking advantage of her acrobatic skills. "LET ME IN!"
Can she retrieve the gold items from the clutch of the wolfbrother?
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.

Gravity successfully pilfers some of the gold from the discarded belongings of rhe transformed wolf. The grey sky has become overcast and a chill rain begins to fall.
"Silly girl, playtime is over. You think you have what you need to live among us, but you don't know the first thing about our kind." He bares his teeth in a cruel grimace.
From behind him, you see them emerge from the rain: the bright yellow eyes of 1 more black wolves. From behind you, the over the pit-patter splash of raindrops 1 more wolves growl.
In a taunting sing-song, the human-form wolf notes with glee "Rule number one: we hunt ... as a pack."
Having seen Gravity's electric chameleon at work and feeling suitably annoyed with the little nuisance, they set upon it.
Roll a DC 20 Dex save for the steel defender.
<Instead of rolling attacks, I'm treating a wave of wolves as an environmental hazard. On a success, the lizard scales the wall or otherwise scurries away to safety, on a failure, it's ripped apart by wolves. I did the math to make this a player facing mechanic and with any more than 1 wolf it becomes a DC22. Despite that, I'm dedicating 3 wolves to this, making it the environmental hazard i envisioned, leaving 5 wolves and one human to deal with Gravity. If you don'tagree with the destruction, then we csn make it a dog toy that they grapple abd drag away. I'm good with either one - trying to maximize fun here. If it breaks you can fix it in an hour with just 6 seconds of work or else go on a literal fetch quest for it. Alternatively you could just make a new one on a long rest.>
The wolf behind Gravity and the wolf who attacked the halflings pounce on the artificer, Two more at the far end of the alley.

<the homebrew for it on the character sheet does not give it a climb speed, but it appeared here with no fall damage so either it was on the roof with you and climbed down or it just appeared from around the corner, I went with the former. It has a 20ft climb speed now. Additional, they didn't notice it - doesn't smell.like an animal but they should still see it, bit they didn't, because it can camouflage- DC12 static hide check, AD/DA based in environmental factors. Rain would cause DA, since the drops would bounce off of it. Activating takes an action. If you hate these ideas, ignore them, just use them if you want to.>
(To recap, there are three wolves trying to play tug if war with the steel defender, 1 attacking feom behind, two waiting at the far end if the alley, say 40ft away, and the human-form and twin wolf you spotted first attacking Gravity face to face.)
Chadderlay will cast Lightning Bolt at the 3 that are in a line.
DC 17 DEX save or take 34 lightning damage. Half damage for a successful save.
"Enough! The lizard man is no longer a threat. Begin arranging the next fight." Chadderlay is trying to divert attention away from Sam.

"Run thy sword across my chains, Silver Lady, that I may join your dance.”
There were less than 4 in a row, so we did the drop one on another, then there are only a different three in a different line.
I'm okay with Chadderly getting to any side of the arena he wants, but he's at least 10 ft overhead; the line can't hit all three of them spread out as they are because it's not parallel to the ground. If it were, it would hit none.
If I had remembered to post the map, this would likely have been avoided, so I'm going to ask for a reconsideration. If the intention is to draw attention, magic use will surely do it, and it won't affect anyone's betting at this point. At least, they wouldn't think so. Not sure yet what Angus will do.
The first random roll was oiw many rounds before the others show up. You tracked them to their headquarters. It's super close. I'll post a map soon. Gravity is up.
Angus rushes to the edge of the arena, climbing over the parapet onto the the outcropping of the tunnel whose gate shut behind Sam as he entered the arena. With a prayer, Angus exudes an aura of vitality, focusing on Samogri and reviving him from mortal slumber.
Chadderly zaps the dustmen with a lightning bolt, killing two instantly.
<½ damage is more than their full hp, no need to roll the save>
The crowd turns ugly. A woman in the stands shrieks in terror as chaos ensues and people start fleeing fir any exit they can find, clearing a wide berth around Chadderly as rhey shout "Run, he's got a wand! Stay low find an exit. Run!"
<These people are super scared of arcane magic. They know the red wizards are here to deal with things from the elemental rifts, but thus guy just fragged two gladiators who just didn't die. They're freaking out>
One man in the crowd draws a sword and stabs Chadderlay "curse ye, Thayan scum!"
<How? From AC 13 to 20? And what does it have to do with Angus? Reminder, spells don't stack, so 2 shield of faiths is still just a +2. If that was it, it's still AC 17, where is the other +3 from? Im not always tracking player sheet - hp, ac, etc. So forgive my confusion - really need to know though, if it relies on Angus, who I'm botting>

In a taunting sing-song, the human-form wolf notes with glee "Rule number one: we hunt ... as a pack."
Gravity feels helpless when she realizes the fact that it's quite impossible to deal with so many wolves. She will toss the extracted gold at the injured halflings and start yelling, "What are you waiting for? Fly away, fools!"
She will immediately start to shift and assume a bestial form (Bonus Action); her canines are elongated, the distance between her eyes is increased when her earlobes extend upwards to complete the transformation. "I thought that you'd be interested to know about my origin story and behave like a group of intelligent beings. But, you're driven by your primal urge and unable to think straight."

<I gave him a climbing speed, but you can ignore it and not use it if yiu don't like it. I'm just saying this for clarity. Same goes for the camouflage. Con save were for bites, so maybe W6 - moot anyhow due to success.>
The wolves start pulling sockets joints, well, from their sockets as they drag him away into the rain.
The halflings take Gravity's words to heart, scrambling as they half limp-run, half crawl to safety but as they pass the wolf beside them and the other near the exit to alley, they slash at them (ooc, 1 each)

Edited: fixed some typos, as seen below, halflings both made it out of the alley.

The famed halfling luck has saved the pair, it seems, though they leave behind an assortment of woven goods and a bit of gold, they escape with their lives.
<@rob88scps2: Glad you're feeling well. Sam went down, you brought him back up then Chadderlay blasted some guys with a lightning bolt and the crowd went I sane and fled, except one guy who tried to stab Chadderlay (but missed).>
