((While under a hail of blows from his friends, the charmed ruffian ‘leader’ must continue to follow Robwin’s suggestion, to the letter, to the best of his ability (with no chance for a further save) for the next 8 hours))
Robwin shouts around the square, “Anyone still wishing to leave, do so now! Let the record show that I gave you all TWO chances.....”. And with that he fires magic missile into the mouth of the new one that just spoke...
(( @Grwobert - We'll say everyone before you including TT and Ruffian Bandit (B) is holding their action ... Robwin's magic missle will go off next round. ))
(( @AndrewFairall - TT is within 30 ft of all these assailants. Ruffians Bandit (B) has just spoken. It's clear all of them are watching the party ready to strike.
TT, You see some hesitancy in a few eyes, but it's clear they're going to follow orders. What do you do?
(( Yes, the party members are all currently within 30 ft of each other with TT and Blaire farthest northwest closer to the Luck Shrine and Common Green while Robwin is farthest southeast near the road that runs corner of the Stonehill Inn. Rinn is roughly parallel with Robwin near the center of the main road. Wolfsong, Eli and Ikki are splayed out behind him. Hope this helps. ))
TT will cast Bless at 2nd level targeting Rinn, Robwin, Wolfsong, and Ikki.
Whenever a target makes an attack roll or a saving throw before the spell ends, the target can roll a d4 and add the number rolled to the attack roll or saving throw.
Wolfsong places a hand on Robwin's shoulder, "My turn."
Wolfsong looks over the group of ruffians and gives a small nod before shouting, "You have been given your warning, anyone before me with a weapon in their hand is now prey in a hunt and I will not stop until I have taken down each and every one of you!" The last word comes out as a roar as Wolfsong ignites his bestial rage causing his nails to grow and sharpen into claws.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Rinn ducks behind a building to hide (bonus action) at the corner (Stealth: 23), then nocks an arrow to hold an attack should anyone not follow Wolfsong's order and attack him and Robwin.
Held Longbow Attack: 19 Damage: 8 (+1 to attack from Bless)
Extra Attack Roll in case of advantage from hidden: 16 (+ above D4 to attack from Bless)
Worlfsong threatens, changes, roars, the Stonehill goblins, wolves and Blaire respond in kind.
Redbrand Ruffian (A) (under suggestion) is on his knees.
Redbrand Ruffian (B) 5 who had issued the second challenge, says, "Oh, hells, no!", and and breaks into a run east down the road towards the Sleeping Giant.
Bandit (A) faints right in front of Robwin and Wolfsong.
The Bandits (B-F) say various things like , "Pays not good enough.", raise their hands and start to back away.
The goblins likewise start shouting disorganized mixture of goblin and common.
Redbrand Ruffian (C) 18; manages to keep his composure and start whipping the Goblins and Bandits back into line when Rinn's arrow catches him right in the throat just above his manubrium, dropping him choking to the ground.
You hear the smithy, Thagren, holler, "Lay down your arms or by the gods you lot of ruffian's will pay in blood!" ( It is clear to the party, he is addressing the Redbrands. )
Rinn, You do see Sister Garaele, Blacksmith Thagren, The Orchard Keeper Daran Edermath, Thistle and some others grabbing and binding the various ruffians who are surrendering.
You all see that there is more trouble going on in the south.
Blaire, yells, "Halia! Jubilance!" She firms her grip on TT still on her back and says, "Come-on!" to the clan while breaking into a run south down the main road.
Robwin calls Lia down from the sky, as he follows everyone south towards the commotion. He gives her the instruction, “FIND. ELSA. ... ... Start in the tavern. If she’s okay, stay with her. If she needs me, come get me!”. He heads south with the others, to see what’s going on there.
He also calls to Wolfsong and Rinn with a heartfelt and genuine “Nice work!!”, and a frown and a sincere nod to each.
