The tiefling twirls in place for several circles before releasing Lebron, but her aim was not as true as she would have hoped and instead of hurling the elf under the table as he had asked, she instead pitches him behind the bar. He lands near Durnan, the barkeep with a handle-bar mustache, who just keeps wiping down the bartop, as if nothing had happened.

The tattooed gangster did not like where this was going, but by his count, his team still had the numerical advantage against the opposing force and so he continued to press the attack against the female half-orc:
Attack (Scimitar): 18 vs. AC 11 (Yagra); dealing 3 slashing damage on a hit.

Terrlynn rolls her shoulders a bit after being struck. She laughs out loud and says, "Did I just get bit by a mosquito?" She then attempts to smack away her foes weapon and quickly follows up with another jab.
Attack on gang member 2
Attack: 17 Damage: 9
Will use superiority die to add 2 Damage and he needs a dc str check 14 or lose gold of his weapon. She will then try to crack him in the face again.
The man was dazed so badly that his weapon slipped from his slackened grip and clattered to the floor, just as a second punch came rocketing in from the opposite direction.
Cyrano watches as the tiefling hurls the half-elf at the Zantarian thugs. "Glad I didn't ask for a fight." he mutters glibbly. He undoes a pouch of ball bearings, then reaches around the post and dumps them out onto the floor covering the area from the 4th thug to their table. He then ducks back and starts to make his way back to Devol.

Busy with attacking the half-orc, the Xanatharian didn't realize that a fistfull of ball bearings had collected around his feet, however the female half-orc (who was facing towards Cyrano) did not fail to notice the svirfneblin's subversion tactic.
In an attempt to prevent a waylay attack, the gangster begins to move towards the axe-wielding, full-blooded orc approaching his cohort from behind, but quickly begins to lose his footing as the small, metal spheres do their work.
GANG 4 Dexterity (Save): 15 vs. DC 10 (Ball Bearings); falling prone on a failed save.

"Ooof !"goes Lebron as he slides across the bar top and lands at Durnan's feet somewhat roughly, almost knocking off a full keg of ale and again getting his clothes stained with stale beer and a wider assortment of liquors as he crashes through the place.
"Right. That big red gal needs to work on her aim, uh ?" he mutters as he carefully peers above the bar and sees the havoc unfolding near the abyssal opening leading down into the Underdark. As he casually picks up a tin jug filled with weak beer and empties its contents onto a nearby pail, he turns towards Durnan and asks: "So... I take it business has been okay sofar uh, D ? You still get a fine jaunty atmosphere in here, I can tell... Let's... just..." he sticks his tongue out as he aims at one of the nearby gang members, "... level that playing field if we can ! Do you mind ?"
Without waiting for answer, he chucks the container across the room then quickly crouches back behind the bar, giving the barman a thumbs-up and a smirk.
"If anyone asks, I'm rooting for these Xans, okay ? Just tryin' to edge my bets, here. Can you tell if I hit that one, though ?"
* Bonus Action:Hides behind the bar. Stealth 17 * Action:attacks Xan #2 from Hidden Spot with improvized weapon either at Disadvantage(target is at 35 feet and I reckon that pitcher probably counts as a 20/60 thrown weapon ?) Attack: 7 Damage: 5 or normally if his Stealth beats the target's Passive Perception. * Movement: goes behind full cover as he crouches behind the bar again.

Durnan looks down at Lebron - "Just don't too 'jaunty', hmm?" he says and then directs his gaze back to a large, shimmering greatsword resting laterally above the bar back on a couple of pegs. Lebron's mug sails towards the middle of the melee and is barely noticed until it smashes into the back of (GANG #2) head. Fortunately, they were all too engaged with the orcs and the Earth Genasi to even notice who had thrown it.
(OOC: Lebron succeeds in his attempt to hide behind the bar.)
GANGSTER 2 Without a weapon, and still reeling from the rock-fisted punches, the gangster makes a half-hearted attempt to shove Terrlynn to the ground.
Attack (Shove): 16 vs. DC 18 (Terrlynn); forcing the target prone on a success.

YAGRA The half-orc stays in place and executes two quick swings of her mace against one of the gangsters.

Devol sighs, shaking her head at her poor elf-tossing form, muttering to herself in Infernal. The tiefling scowls as she watches one of the gangsters bring his sword down at the genasi on the ground. "Hittin' someone while they're down?" She mutters to herself. "Right. You're mine."She draws one of the swords at her hips, steps in, and slashes at the gangster.
Short sword attack on GANGSTER 3: 25; Damage on hit - 10 Piercing.
On a hit, Devol will mark GANGSTER 3 as a Favored Foe and add 3 additional Piercing damage.

The graceful tiefling snaps her short sword at the gangster, landing a direct hit. She then increases the damage as she draws upon her ranger powers as she marks the man for death.
Before Krentz (the gangster with the tattooed face) can make his next attack, several of the patrons let out shrieks and screams as something hideous comes crawling out of the large pit in the center of the tavern...a wounded troll with three blood-thirsty stirges attached to it!
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
One of the stirges detaches from the troll and begins circling overhead, looking for it's next victim as many of the tavern-goers scream and run for cover. From one of the backrooms, a group of drow, masked by the shadows, collects near the doorway to the main tavern and watch the chaos calmly...it was almost as if they were evaluating the situation. Their faces were difficult to make out, mostly just silhouettes, but one shape stuck out from the one in the back - the outline of a wide-brimmed hat festooned with a large, long diatryma feather could be easily seen against the backdrop of the roaring fireplace....
"TROLL!!!" yells Krentz and quickly turns his blade against the monster:
Attack (Scimitar): 14 vs. AC 15 (Troll); dealing 6 slashing damage on a hit.
Terrlynn curls up her legs and rocks forward to a standing position with her arms up to guard her face. Then she punches out hard and wraps her hand to grab his shirt while shouting at him, "We got other shit to worry about!" Then yanks him forward to headbutt him.
Move: stand
Action: Attack: 7 Damage: 9
If it hits Athletic check to grab + combat maneuver dice 17+1

Bonus action
Attack: 26 Damage: 9
The Earth Genasi throws a fist as hard as rock (because it actually was rock..) at one of the gangsters, hitting him squarely on the jaw.
THUG2
Strength (Save): 7 vs. DC 14 (Terrlynn) becoming disarmed on a failed save.
The man was dazed so badly that his weapon slipped from his slackened grip and clattered to the floor, just as a second punch came rocketing in from the opposite direction.

Both of the half-orc's mace strikes hit, knocking the wind out of the gangster, but he quickly recovers and returns fire.
Attack (Scimitar): 10 vs. DC 11 (Yagra); dealing 8 slashing damage on a hit.
ORC
The male orc swings his greataxe sidelong, as if playing a game of stickball in an attempt to divorce one of the gangster's heads from their body.
Attack (Greataxe) 9 vs. AC 11 (GANG 3); dealing 11 slashing damage on a hit.
