Usul was leading the group quickly, so just now noticed that they've all stopped. He'll just watch the interaction for now. He'd been the small boy in this many times, but has never really been able to stop it before.
Gatt alerts the party to the confrontation in the alley; their reactions vary. Sen successfully hides in the shadows, while Usul and Aria take up more cautious postures - Aria more defensive, Usul more of an observer.
Crush grabs one of the young men by the arm and the crows began cawing aggressively. Veryes unleashes her insult at the man grabbing the boy (correct me if I'm wrong and you want to target the other one). I rolled a 1 for his wis save so not only is he going to take damage, he's going to drop the kid and drop to 1 knee, grabbing his head, so whoever attacks him next gets advantage.
Roll damage for that attack and everyone: Roll initiative!
Ok, the gang's all here. Here's the initiative order. You're up against two of each of the following: thug, mastiff, swarm of ravens. To keep things simple, they're going in pairs. Should be a quick and easy fight for you all to get your feet wet.
Aria Veryes Gatt Ravens Alexandra Thugs Crush Usul Sen (Usul and Sen both rolled a 7, but Usul has higher Dex, so gets the nod here. I feel like Sen would be ok with that). Mastiffs
Crush has one of the thugs grappled and the other is down on one knee, having taken damage from Veryes. They alley is approximately 10 feet wide. Aria is up first.
Aria looses an arrow toward the ravens, and it narrowly misses one of the birds, who is just barely able to hop out of the way, making a loud KRAAA sound as it turns back and makes direct eye contact with the ranger.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Will hold Gatt's action.
The ravens fly into action, one swarm going after Aria for her attack, the other going after Crush (rolling damage here so I can get used to using the dice roller, I won't always have my rolls out in the open like this).
Attack on Aria: 22, damage if it hits 6
Attack on Crush: 23, damage if it hits 3
The swarm of ravens are easily deflected by Aria, but Crush isn't so lucky - they're able to swoop by him and slice his arm, doing minimal but annoying damage.
The javelin from Gatt misses its target. Alexandra is up. Gatt can go whenever he's ready.
EDIT: We posted at the same time so I'll keep the original initiative order.

I go draw my rapier and dagger and weave in low to stab the thug I insulted using two weapon fighting
Veryes rapier attack 31 Dmg:4

If I can since he was on the ground I'll back up and my back to the wall after attacking.
