Café de Nuit

Alhoon, you can post if you like. Minor update in your scene.

Not reading the OOC, Alfonse really saved the day...
As well as the props Gertie has bought. Be prepared, and all.

To be sincere, I laughed when Aldron's chosen men abandon the fight and their boss and keep running when the watch arrived.

Anyway, now we can blame everything on the masked men including the abduction and hope Elissa sticks by us. Richard would have been a lucky man...

Elissa isnt daft to be sure,,,, I hope she does help us out, alhoon, and yes Gertie is always prepared for almost any eventuality, thankfully

If we manage to reach the Friar, Fild would try to find something to eat, but he won't go to sleep. He would suggest that they keep watch in case enemies\the watch arrives. We don't know our fellows were not captured.

Fild hasn't said it out loud but he considers the most probable "hick up" that the watch arrested the group, investigates Richard and Aldron for their complicity in such a high-profile crime and tortured our friends to find where we are. He believes either our friends or the nobles will sooner or later point a finger at us and send Hoblin mercs or the Watch to our door.

Let's see Fild's track record:
- He vouched for Aldron during the meeting, failing to figure his motives, even though the plan seemed weird.
- During the abduction, he helped Alfonse look over the fence and that was it
- Suggested the party splits up, which at the time seemed a sound idea, but nearly proved disastrous a couple of times (and it might still prove bad) where bigger numbers would have been beneficial (guarding Elissa, blocking the mercs, defending from Aldron).
- Can see in the night and still got lost in the night.
- Suggested the half-party go to the Admiral instead of Friar, landing us in an encounter


It is obvious that the best career for Fild, based on the outcome of his decisions and his choices is politician.
Fild for Povero mayor!

Slight Edit for clarity.

Ohhh...
Meh, you spoiled it. I preferred if Aldron would have brought complete turn-coats and morons with him. I would have proposed him for Vice-Mayor of Povero in Fild's political speeches if he had done so.

I imagined them rushing by us, a few on horseback and one off-handedly telling their boss "See you! The watch is coming. Byeeeee!"


Yes, in hindsight I realize that is completely unrealistic and not the most pragmatic and disloyal mercenary wouldn't have done it.
But it was a fun thought.

Hilarious sis.

So... what are we accused for?
If anyone in the town where we stolen Elissa from identifies us... will Elissa's word that "it's OK!" count? Or it will be "they are not allowed to abduct you with or without your permission, nor to put your life in danger, whether they saved you or not" ?
I hope the head of the Hoblin house will be grateful enough that we saved Elissa (after putting her in mortal danger in the first place) that will not pursue charges. If not...

Lower is better/ friendlier.

That was quite low.

Watch are now your allies in this scene.

SECOND COMBAT


Party (unless you flee)
Six watchmen with polearms

Versus 7 of Folbre's men (who are mounting horses)
(Some already fled)

Watch are slightly outnumbered.

On foot they will not be able to catch these guys after the first round, unless they really get them tangled in melee.
But they do have pole weapons, which helps.

Are you guys aiding the watch versus the killers?
