This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Benagol knows nothing of this Ratsomething but he know the owner of the inn quite well.
It was suprising how many helped him on the spot, if it was not for them, he would have never risked but , especially after that magic boom, he can feel he must do his part and cannot hold back: he quickly unsheath his pike and attacks the ruffian that spoke so threateningly.
At first he tries to knock him prone and then he attacks him
FREE ACTION: UNSHEATH PIKE
bonus action: attack with the rear of the pike but forgo attack for knocking the ruffian prone: my athletics 12 vs his
ACTION: ATTACK WITH REACH: If he is prone: advantage: Attack: 8 Damage: 11
if he is not prone: normal attack: Attack: 24 Damage: 4
"Larkan, get down!" Basiel yells, and the barkeeper ducks under the table. He then runs over and attempts to shove the ruffian to the ground. However, the man was too strong for the halfling, and stayed on his feet. Filli then jumps into action, sliding her shield over her shoulder and onto her arm, and getting between the man and the counter. Mugs stands, claps her hands in front of her, and chants. A thunderous wave of energy emits from the clap, sending plates flying and candles snuffed out, leaving the room in near darkness. "Guards!" she shouts loudly, as two of the ruffians are thrown back into the wall, one unconcious and the other dazed but alive. Two others stand their ground to the shockwave.
The leader of the ruffians pushes the halfling down, pinning him onto the ground ((I'm making these rolls for you guys, so combat is smoother.)). Two of the bandits charge at Mugs, who seems like the obvious threat at the moment. Both pull out their flintlocks and shoot. One shot goes wildly off target, smashing a window, while the other hits Mugs in the shoulder ((take 5 points of piercing damage)). The living ruffian who was pushed against the wall rises, and rushes at Filli, attempting to bring the second halfling down.
Erika throws her dagger into the chest of the last bandit, wounding him mortally. She then charges in to help Filli, using the cover of the counter to conceal her movement, and strikes at the bandit holding Basiel down. The man saw the strike in his peripheral and dodged out of the way, however leaving Basiel to get back onto his feet. Benagol runs into combat, using the butt of his pike to hit a bandit in the stomach, and then using the blade to stab him through the chest, killing him. Dara whips out her staff and chants a spell, sending a burst of cold white energy streak towards the lead ruffian. It hits him squarely in the shoulder, and he stiffens, as if he had gone numb.
Basiel, now on his feet thanks to Erika's strike, stabs the bandit through the chest with his shortsword ((nat 20!!)). Filli stabs the last bandit with her dagger, dropping the last of the ruffians.

There are now five bodies on the floor. Tables, plates and chairs are strewn everywhere, and the room is almost completely dark, except for the little light coming in through the windows. A frightened Larkan cowers behind the counter. The only wound was that on Mugs's shoulder, where a bullet had hit. Four of the bandits are dead, and one is knocked out against the wall.
Once the danger has passed Filli immediately turns to Larkan, moving over to him to check he is alright “Larkan, are you okay? Did you get hurt?”
She then glances up from behind the counter at the stranger who took a shot in her shoulder and adds “And you friend, do you need aid? How bad is the wound, I am a healer.”
She then stops herself as if only noticing everyone for the first time before finally adding to everyone “Oh, and thank you all for protecting Larkan.”

Erika goes to get her dagger, and commences searching the bodies to find any clues as to what just happened. If they have anything of interest she’ll take it and leave a ball bearing. “Hope you use this in the afterlife to trip,” she mutters to herself.
"I'm fine," Larkan says, "just a little spooked is all. I've seen bar fights before, but those never included guns or sabers. Thank you so much for your help."
He proceeds to straighten the tables, trying to busy himself and not think about what just happened.
Filli’s face lightens as Larkan says that he is okay. As he moves to straighten the tables she doesn’t let him go at that however and the look of concern returns again. “They knew you friend. What is this map they were looking for, are you in trouble Larkan?”
Basiel looks around at the mayhem as he wipes the blood from his blade. He nods at Filli, and Larkan in-turn, as she thanks the group for their aid. He proceeds to help Larkan clean the bar up as he listens for the answer to Filli's question.
Larkan's face clouds over with concern. "A gnome came to me one day, with a roll of parchment. He said it was important, and that I need to keep it from Ratbeard at all costs. I didn't know what kind of trouble I was getting into at the time, and kept it. I never heard from the gnome again." Larkan pulls out a chair, and takes a seat. "I got a letter in the mail later that same day. In it was a single black coin. Ratbeard's pirates would send it to whoever they were going to kill next, or so I heard. I panicked, and hid the map away, I didn't know when they were going to come and kill me, but all I could do was wait."
Larkan shudders. "I don't know what they want with that map, but whatever it is, it isn't good for you or me."
Mugs sifts through the unconscious or dead pirates and grabs any coin pouches she can find.
Afterwards she walks over to Larkin and Filli resting an elbow on the bar she examines her wound. Interrupting Larkins conversation with Filli, "To think I risked my neck for you after you didn't even give me a discount on the soup." Mugs remarked shaking her finger at Larkin.
"Why don't we talk about this situation over a complimentary bowl of soup?"
Filli: “And you friend, do you need aid? How bad is the wound, I am a healer.”
Mugs smiles at Filli "If you would be so kind I would appreciate it greatly."
((If Erika grabbed everything I put my hands out to her expectedly and request my cut. shaking my almost empty coin pouch in her direction))
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Basiel scowls at the inelegant request for concessions. He puts some plates he had picked up on the bar, and seats himself with Larkan and the others. "Who was this gnome? How did you know them, and what motivated you to take the parchment?"
Being a local, has Basiel heard of Ratbeard before?
History:21
If he has not heard of Ratbeard, he also asks: "And who's this 'Ratbeard'?"
((Not sure if that's the right roll. Let me know if not!))
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Filli looks up at mugs, annoyed at the demands directed at Larkan despite the situation and says to her “I will buy you all the soup you want after this is cleaned up. Now let me fix your shoulder.” With that she moves to Mugs and places her hand on the wound as she utters a prayer to Argon and casts cure wounds for 5
As she does so she listens intently to Larkan reply to Basiel’s questions keen to know more.
Erika and Mugs search the bodies. Erika, take 3 gold and 4 silver. Mugs, you get 1 gold and 2 silver.
Basiel has indeed heard of Ratbeard. He is a pirate captain, and one of the most feared around the local area. Any local would know of him.
Larkan begins to speak, "The gnome was an old friend of mine. He left Valencia due to the Clockwork tyranny, and came here. He stayed, learned to cook. I took the map because I feared for his life. I'd rather he live than me."
Larkan sighs. "He may be dead. He disappeared around the same time as Gerant did. Ah, if he was here today, he could've cooked all the soup you'd ever want. Alas, he is missing."

Benagol goes to tie the unconscious bandit
"I'm fine," Larkan says, "just a little spooked is all. I've seen bar fights before, but those never included guns or sabers. Thank you so much for your help."

After searching the bodies, Erika will sit down and finish her food while listening to the conversation.
