Gevaar shakes Ugghh's hand and introduces himself "I am Gevaar Divlja-Zvijer, you may call me Stalker." "It seems we're trees hewn from the same forest, I to care little for what money can do for me' Gevaar takes the half orc's offering with a nod, and pays Ragella for the drinks.

Ugghh frowns a little at the statement made about his javelins not being darts but takes it in good spirits. "I just got done hunting and killing an evil lord and his pet dragon and after everyone had personal errands to run. I am about to head home and challenge an Orc who took over my tribe and challenge him for leadership through right of combat. I just wanted to take a bit of a break afore hand. How about you?"

"Well Ugghh" Gevaar replies "I've recently left my tribe to break away from it's monotony in search of adventure, worthy adversaries to crush under foot, and the glory of a legendary hero." "So far I've just managed to wander into this tavern"

Slider nods slowly, seeming to understand on her talents. " As for myself, I would say I'm a collector. I collect songs, I play a tune. I entertain with music dancing and a few other things I am known to be a expert at. I am selfish in a way, that I want all I can get to love a life I enjoy. I'm quick on my feet, light with my hands and seems I have a talent of trouble always finding me." 

There is a smile but then shrugs his shoulders. Taking another deserved drink from his glass he laughs lightly. " Also, I can't help but strike a conversation with a beautifull face. Plus, it is how you meet new friends, right?" He quickly once again glances towards the conversation between the two tough looking individuals.

Main Room

Ragella looks to Silder. "Collect songs, do you? Well we have our own in-house entertainer in the form of Kelryn. Perhaps you two can trade a story of two at some point."

As Ragella mentions there is someone that works there who also collects songs and stories, he smiles, raises his wine glass. " Here is hoping to meet this Kelryn sooner than later. I always enjoy exchanging songs and stories with other individuals, specially over a glass of wine. I find that it loosens the tongue a bit more." 

At that, he takes another sip of his wine.

Main Hall

"Well she'll be around in a bit." Ragella replies. "Got some chores to do. Anyway, if you've got a story to share, there's a free drink in it for you if you'd like."

Ana gives Slider a smile, "It certainly is." in reference to his comment about conversation. She looks back to Ragella as the topic of Kelryn comes up, "Yes, I'd very much like to see her."

After a moment she moves her hand quickly and as if from nowhere a small creature is suddenly sitting on her lap. It's small, perhaps no more than six inches long nose to tail with reddish brown fur and white down the belly. It perks up on its back legs, looking around curiously before Ana gives it a little scratch under the chin.

Main Hall

The group continues to enjoy drinks for a moment before the door to the tavern opens with a SLAM! as stepping into the tavern is a large green-skinned person, around ten feet in height with a gangly frame and warts over its hideous body. It wears some animal hides on its body and has sharp blades the size of longswords strapped beside its unnaturally long clawed fingers. It looks around ravenously, its yellowish eyes looking wild as it sniffs with a feral look upon its face.

(For those who are not familiar with trolls, they look a little like the picture in the spoiler)

 "Ah, shit. More little pests" Ragella says, rolling her sleeves up. "Well patrons, free round if you deal with this beasty before it can break anything."

COMBAT RULES:

• Monsters will take a turn once every 12-24 hours. Players may take a turn during that time. If they do not post in that time, their turn is skipped.
• The monsters go after the party, so they may act immediately. Keep in mind that you are currently sat down and not having any weapons drawn.
• The troll is thirty feet away from the bar.
• Let's go!

Onyx spins in his seat at the slam of the door, seeing the troll and Rags direction to dispatch of it. He stands draws his short sword raises his free hand and casts Hunters Mark on the troll. And rushes forward for an attack.

Attack: 18

Damage: 8

Hunters mark damage: 2

Ana's little friend reacts first, jumping up onto the bar to hide behind a bowl. Ana herself turns in her seat and narrows her eyes at the troll. She lifts her hands, the left now holding an intricate rod that's about ten inches long, as she begins to cast hold monster (Wisdom Save DC 18), speaking in something other than common. Regardless of the results, she'll get to her feet and move as far from the troll as she can while keeping line of sight.

Ana takes to her feet, as her spell attempts to keep the troll in place.
Troll's Wisdom Saving Throw: 8

The troll seems to pause in place, completely paralyzed.

People who have taken actions:

• Ana

Nia hears sounds in the tavern as this is her first time working here, She literally RUSHING in the door and see the big giant troll, and cast Feeblemind on Troll~ 

Ana smirks to herself as it takes hold. The Troll is now paralyzed which also means it is incapacitated.

"Have at it fellas, I'll hold it as long as I can."

For DM:

Onyx took an action just before Ana. 

Post #370

Onyx targets the troll with his spell and strikes at it. It is not very mobile, even less so after he slashes as the troll suddenly seems to freeze in place. Even so, he can see that the wound is beginning to knit itself back together before his eyes.

Troll: 10 damage, under Onyx's Hunter's Mark, paralyzed by Ana's Hold Monster.

People who have taken actions:

• Ana
• Onyx

Slider was actually having a great time, relaxing and drinking. Yet as he thought all was going well, in the middle of a drink, a troll enters. As all others act, he hesitate as he looks at the troll and his clothing. Taking a big breath, he stands up and pulls out his rapier and dagger, now simply eyeing the best way to get in and out without damaging damaging his attire.

Sildar has drawn his weapons and it prepping to strike when convenient.

The Troll attempts to break free of Ana's holding effect once more:
Troll's Wisdom Saving Throw: 7

The troll is still paralyzed (and therefore incapacitated). However, its wounds still knit together, as if they were never there.

People can go again!

Ana eyes Slider, grumbling about his inaction.. she maintains concentration on her hold monster spell.

She reaches up to touch the circlet on her head and casts scorching ray, sending three flaming rays at the Troll.

Ray 1 Attack: 18 Fire Damage: 8
Ray 2 Attack: 12 Fire Damage: 9
Ray 3 Attack: 18 Fire Damage: 7
