I get the feeling I should end every post with a reminder of those that still haven't acted. I might have to start dropping them down in the initiative order, get all the action in over a day or two then wait a day for the inactive to pipe in somewhere?
Gajimi it's your turn!
Darvin - still waiting for his turn actions
Cloud - still awaiting for her turn actions
Adam - still awaiting to finish his last turn
Aust - Non-responsive and will auto-Dodge till he does
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
You're at Disadvantage to hit to your target being Lightly Obscured due to the Dim Light (your Darkvision bringing it down from Heavily Obscured due to Dark Light)
But 16 misses anyway, so don't bother with another roll.
The Drow shakes the frost off his arms, seeming unaffected by the cold.
Herald's turn, inactives moved to bottom of initiative order!
Initiative Order:
Drow enemy
Gajimi
Herald
Arthur
drunk elf npc
Untaken actions, jump in whenever you can:
Darvin
Cloud
Adam
Aust
(You can turn on notifications for just this thread if you wish to keep up, we will wait a bit for you at the end of Initiative order before restarting. Lots of stuff to cover.)
Herald will spend his turn staring at the drow from the roof edge directly across from him. Debating whether he can survive jumping to the ground and climb the building behind the drow's current perch...
Ok. Although idk what is going on ( as in arthur ) I ask the tabaxi " pray tell, can you tell me what's going on here?" And also " if you are missing a scimitar there is a half elf sailor below us using it for defense . My name is Arthur by the way, and I'm certain the city watch will arrive soon".

(had to type this up off site and paste it here cause it kept resetting on each of my stops, hope my dice macros are correct)
(time to send some of these to the fridge for now to clean it up a bit)
Aust points to the north side of his building, and him and Adam head off that direction.
Darvin shouts to Cloud that he's checking down the southern alley. Cloud looks at Arthur and utters what sounds like a thankful "meow", grabs her bow, and shoots off quick as lightning after him.
6 members of the City Watch arrive from the East. 4 keep a lookout while one begins tending to the bloody half elf. The Watch Captain asks "What befalls"?
The half elf responds "I think I was attacked. I remember pain and blood before passing out. I think I woke to that man saving my life" as he points to Arthur. The Watch Captain turns to Arthur, about to speak when all eyes turn towards the sound of an explosion down the street.
(Cut to the rooftops) The Drow, upon hearing the noise in the street below, gets up from his sitting position and wanders south. Standing in the air just past the building, he glanced back at the half elf that has been pursuing him. He draws his pistol to snap off a quick shot before disappearing below the roof....
Attack roll with Disadvantage due to his target being Lightly Obscured in the Darkness:
Arthur will accompany the city guard incase they need assistance as any good paladin would do . He does have his great sword out, as the usual precaution , if the guards are observant his holy symbol is his amulet , which hopefully tells the guards he is no threat to them
The Captain sends 6 members of the City Watch to check out the explosion.
"Stay your sword, son of Tyr. The City Watch has this under control, there is no need to involve yourself in this gang war. I'm Captain Staget, and I..."
His face takes a far off look for a moment, then looks around at everyone around him. "Either one side has employed a dark elf, or wants to throw us off the scent. Jenkins, split the new squad and search down both alleys. Keep sharp." A new squad of 6 shows up, and is split in two groups heading down the alleys. "And send a squad after that panther! This place is just getting weirder" Turns to Arthur. "Unless there is more you'd like to add to your statement?"
My statement ? I decided to take a stroll . I've only been in waterdeep a few weeks now. I heard 2 loud booms as i was sightseeing in these docks. That's when I came across the half elf sailor and the tabaxi archer, both wounded and near death. I healed them and this is where we are now . ( billy ask's if the sailor is still near by )
"Did you heal them with your sword? Though it does look rather clean, and this guy still has his head on him."
He turns to the half-elf "And which gang are you mixed in with, Zhent or Xanathar?"
The half-elf "I don't even know who that is, my ship just pulled in today. Name's Cletus, a deckhand on The Belladonna. I'm out tonight drinking up my pay before we ship off"

"We'll be checking out both your stories. I'll kinda ask you, again, to put your sword away, citizen."
Gajimi, you notice a 4 member squad of the City Watch approaching you cautiously with their weapons drawn.
Arthur slings his sword back where it belongs. " My apologies Capt Staget . It was out because I was ready to help you. I understand if you don't need or want my aid concerning your guard but at least allow cletus and myself to help search for innocent survivors if there are anymore casualties "." Btw my name is Arthur Darkeyes the 3rd "
"We'll Mr Darkeyes, while we appreciate your help it is highly unadvised. There is a gang war going on right now that we are dealing with. And while we have no problems with scum killing scum, we don't like it spilling into the streets. Our suspicions are naturally up we come across a scene like this. Especially when it also comes with someone who "takes a stroll" of the Dock Ward at night looking like they are outfitted for a wilderness expedition".

Herald will spend his turn staring at the drow from the roof edge directly across from him. Debating whether he can survive jumping to the ground and climb the building behind the drow's current perch...
The Drow sits there, eyeing both Gajimi and Herald, then turns his attention to the East as noise of a large group of people approaches.
Arthur it's your turn!

And
10 poison damage
(Edit, Fixed the R to r on the dice macros)
He missed, again! Damn Darkvision being used correctly for a change.
Gajimi, you're up!
I yell he went that way and point to the direction of the drow
Then I wild shape into a panther, climb down and chase after the drow. Can I see the drow?
You get down to street level, but do not catch sight of the Drow.
Herald's Turn!
Herald said he's moving to the southwest corner of his building, casts a spell, and keeps a lookout.
Arthur is up.
Arthur will accompany the city guard incase they need assistance as any good paladin would do . He does have his great sword out, as the usual precaution , if the guards are observant his holy symbol is his amulet , which hopefully tells the guards he is no threat to them

"Hold on for second, Mr Darkeyes, my squad approaches that runaway pet"
Gijimi, you're up.
