As you all look outside the front door and windows you see five men dressed in fairly common clothes holding a pair of large black dogs with heavy metal chains. Each of the men have rags covering their faces and are wearing thick work gloves. The largest of the men quickly loads his crossbow for another shot at the lizardfolk in the doorway
Attack: 19 Damage: 3
The shot sails harmlessly past and lands with a thud against an interrior wall of the house.
The two men next to him quickly run towards the front door. Drawing shortswords, they manage to stop just at the threshold to the orphanage while the two remaining men stay back a ways holding their now barking and snarling dogs back on their chains.
So two guys up next to darastrix, the big guy with his crossbow standing about 30ft back and then behind him on either side of him is another guy holding a dog.

Two bolts fly by as Darastrix opens the door and the lizardfolk can't help but to freeze. A passing feeling as his more instinctual brother charges next to him swinging at one of the bandits.
"Ash!" Darastrix calls out suddenly as he's brought back to his senses and the realization of what's unfolding before him. Instantly the lizard lunges at the same bandit Ash has struck with the hope of biting free a chunk of flesh.
Not finished, an icicle forms in the lizard's hand just as he's straightening back from the bite attempt and hurls it at the bandit with the bow in the back.
Bonus: Bite attack 2 Damage: 5
Attack: ice knife Attack: 13 Damage: 5 (Hit or Miss the knife explodes and the target and all creatures within 5' need dex 13 or take 4)

Ash makes his way to the front door and delivers a heavy overhand strike with his mace to the face of the bandit (bandit 2), sending him realing right as Darastrix lunges towards him with his teeth bared but the stumbling man manages to stagger out of the lizardfolks way. I moment later the lizardfolk hurls a razor sharp ice shard towards the larger man with holding the light crossbow. The ice shard disappears into the stomach of the large man without a sound before a muffled pop can be heard from inside his stomach accompanied by a small spray of red mist as ice shards shoot out from the mans gut before he falls to the ground motionless. Ice shards manage to zip into the arms and chest of bandit 4 while bandit 5 and both dogs manage to avoid the icy shrapnel

"Oh dear." Vruuk frantically scrambles for his bow, but stops short, remembering his Pa's rules about weapons in the house. "I'mma be right back!" He calls as he moves to sneak around to the back entrance, aiming to get around to the front.
The bugbear disappears into some nearby foliage and begins making his way around the house. The huge cat-like creature is nearly invisible among the leaves and shadows....

Seeing the two bolts fly past Darastrix, Cinders yells in surprise, making a noise that sounds something like like, "Ahh!" Followed by a tickle in his nose. Uh-oh... he thinks as he turns and sees the bandits are quite close, he repeats the sound followed by "Ahh! ...Aa-choo!" as he sneezes, a ball of flame goes flying towards one of the bandits engaged in the melee.
OOC: I am assuming he can see one of the bandits by looking underneath Ash.

“Pok’im cross cos people get angry cos he and his brothers different” he says entering a rage (bonus action) as the townsfolk(?) attack. He looks up at the crossbow bolt embedded in the doorway and wrenches it free ”bah you call this pokey stick?” as he flourishes his pike “now this is what I call proper pokin’ stick” as he leans over and with his 15 foot reach pokes one of the bandits in the back row with his pike Attack: 11 Damage: 14
Cinders manages to scramble between the legs of the centaur and sneeze fire on legs of bandit 1, setting his foot on fire and causing him to leap up in pain as his foot smolders...
(So I thought Pokim was circling around the house being sneaky. So is he coming around the building and flanking the two men standing at the front door from the side? or is he now in the house stabbing at the people at the front door from behind darastrix and ash? The other two men and the two dogs are about 30 feet from the front door down the road a bit.)
(When I read Vruuk was being sneaky and reflected more on my post, I thought that Pok’im getting angry and attacking was more in character so if possible that’s where I’d like him to be)
(When I read Vruuk was being sneaky and reflected more on my post, I thought that Pok’im getting angry and atracking was more in character so if possible that’s where I’d like him to be)
That is totally fine! I just wanted to make sure I knew what was gong on!
Pokim manages to lift his pike and drive it between the lizardfolk and bugbear with expert percision, driving his pike into the bandit (2) and pulling it out with a small sput of blood before the man falls lifelessly to the floor.

The two men watch as their leader falls to the ground after being hit with an ice shard from the lizardfolk. They both quickly release the chains holding back their dogs and walk towards the house, pulling out red glowing flasks before heaving them towards the front door. The bandit on the left (4) throwing at the lizardfolk in the doorway while the bandit on the right (5) throws at the large centuar
Both flasks fly past their targets, one smashing into the side of the orphanage and the other landing inside the house. The moment the flasks come into contact with the hard surfaces they erupt in searing hot flames. Thick black smoke rolling up into the sky and filling the house...
As the house starts to catch fire..
The first large black mastiff charges forward and leaps over the body of the man in the doorway lashing out with its teeth at the lizardfolk. Attack: 20 Damage: 3
The second large black mastiff runs up beside the the first and tries to bite into the lizardfolk as well... Attack: 7 Damage: 7 The second mastiff is able to sink its teeth into the scaly leg of the lizardfolk and attempts to drag him to the ground!

***ASH is up!
(2 guys next to me. 3 guys and 2 dogs stayed back?)
So two guys up next to darastrix, the big guy with his crossbow standing about 30ft back and then behind him on either side of him is another guy holding a dog.
OOC: Uh geez guys. Where am I in relation to the bandits? I mean I was trying to leave but I guess someone else opened the door?
Ash using his mace hits the first guy within range Attack: 14 Damage: 5

(Did I just get trampled 🤔)
(it is a big double door so we will say it is 10ft wide so Ash and Darastrix can be side by side with two bandits in front of them)

Cinders is up and then Pokim!
Seeing the two bolts fly past Darastrix, Cinders yells in surprise, making a noise that sounds something like like, "Ahh!" Followed by a tickle in his nose.
