Wex will allow himself to be dragged into the alley. Assuming their grip on him has him either Grappled or Restrained he can’t get away, but can still cast spells.
At their first punch (or stab, I guess, if they are hardcore) Wex will cast Shield. Then he will attempt to shrug them off.
Acrobatics/Athletics: 17
Whether that works or not, he will use his most dire voice to drop the drunk act and say, “Fools... you do not know with whom you have dealt.”
Intimidation: 19
Whether that works or not, his next move will be to summon as evil looking a broad sword as he can (could be weird if he’s still hung up between them!).
Finally, if they aren’t suitably scared off at this point, he will say, “Leave with your lives, or you will not see your death coming,” and cast Darkness, which he can see through, and leave as best he can.
Stealth: 16
Hopefully all this goes off well and we can avoid Sevrn coming and killing them!
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The men carry you into the back of the alley, Wex. You're thrown to the ground, rather roughly! You land on your back somewhat looking up at these men. "We lost some good coin to that clown in there and now he's done playing. That money was hard to come by you drunken fool!" The men move closer to you. "Ya! and now we can't cheat it back from him....Guess we'll just have to get it out of you!" One of the men pulls out a crude club, the thing looks more like a chair leg than an actual weapon. He takes a swing at you!
Attack: 7Damage: 5
The man's club swings down as your spell goes off. The club bounces harmlessly off of you, sending vibrations through the man's arm. The man steps back gripping his arm, his companion follows suit. They look at you as you get up from the ground. Your words come out in a deep menacing tone,“Fools... you do not know with whom you have dealt.” As they're said a wicked Broad sword slowly appears in your hand starting from the hilt and materializing upwards to the tip of the blade, finishing with its customary slight pop! With an evil smirk on your lips you say“Leave with your lives, or you will not see your death coming,”The men's looks of absolute horror, vanish in your darkness spell. You hear the screams of them as they try to run. You watch as both of the men start running into each other, tripping over things, still screaming. Your smirk turns into a huge smile and you even have to cover your mouth to stifle a laugh as you dodge around them and make your way back to the Inn.
Walking around the corner and outside of the darkness you meet up with both Flynn and Theo.
Wex will vanish the sword as he leaves the darkness. "Ah, hello. Inside now, let's go." He notes Theo's perhaps sour look, but hustles the others into the inn anyway. Once inside, Wex will stop concentrating on the darkness spell. He'll settle up with the tab and head upstairs, indicating to the others that we should get out of the common room if we want to talk.

ey/em/eirs, or they/them works, too (just not he). Role-playing since that keep on those borderlands. I love it so.
“I have been called worse,” Wex smiles. “We are not here to fleece the locals, obnoxious as those three might have been. Maybe they needed separating from you, maybe you from them.”

"It was all under control before you decided to intervene, so any fall-out is completely on you to explain to the murder elf."
Theo smiles back, seeming less annoyed. "Though I do enjoy the rush of a get away, this should be fun. But don't ever come between me and cards again."
Theo smiles a bit and laughs. "Thank you, though you probably did stop me from taking them from everything they are worth..which is probably for the better. So what's the plan?"
You all disappear to your respective rooms for the night. The morning comes without any interruptions. The tavern area is pretty empty, just a few people having breakfast. There are no signs of Theo's "card buddies".
Theo smirks. "Technically no one is cheating is everyone is cheating. Also, don't ever invest in Wex's judgement. You might get mugged in an alley." Theo collects his things and passes any bills for the room or food on to Wex. "For my troubles." At that Theo is ready to depart.

Theo rolls his eyes, but follows Flynn to help and to try to avoid anyone getting hurt.
Perception to see where they went: Passive:16, Active: 13
OOC > Just read up on Darkness and Wex will cast it in the alley (not on an object) so that it does not bleed out into the street much.

As Wex hurries Theo back to the inn, Theo simply says: "You're an idiot."

"That was brilliant, Flynn says with a grin but maybe we should forgo the common room the rest of the night

“Um. Sleep. Leave in the morning? If they come looking for me, I’ll play dumb. Us idiots are good at that.” Wex smiles to soften the retort.

Unless anyone else has anything.....
You all disappear to your respective rooms for the night. The morning comes without any interruptions. The tavern area is pretty empty, just a few people having breakfast. There are no signs of Theo's "card buddies".
Wex is eager to get out of town. Never pays to linger. He’ll grab a hunk of bread and some cheese, settle up and be ready to go.

Theo will gather is stuff and go over some light reading while he eats breakfast before they depart.
Flynn eats a quick breakfast an is ready to go
Laissez les bons temps rouler
Sevrn is an early riser and is already outside preparing the horses when Wex, Flynn, and Theo exit the inn.
"Uneventful evening?"
“A little of this, a little of that. Don’t play cards with Theo. He cheats.” Wex says with a smile. He mounts up and is ready to hit the road.
