Poljen throws off the netting and strikes out again, felling one man and wounding another. Cratol and
Velon dive into the fray as well, inflicting their own casualties.

And then chaos breaks loose as Tazskan reveals himself and summons a small hoard of wriggling tentacles. One tries to snare Poljen, but the barbarian avoids it. Many of those around him are not so lucky, several being grabbed and constricted.

Two men, having narrowly avoided being grabbed, turn tail and start running for an alley. The rest stay and keep fighting, though many are looking panicked now. Several are drawing bladed weapons rather than the clubs they had been using, and the netcasters abandon their attempts.

Perry rounds a corner and almost runs into the Flaming Fists already on their way to the scene.

Out of Character: Velon didn't even need shield to avoid getting hit, Cratol took a light strike for 7. Poljen ended up with another 37 (19 after resist) Anron, there isn't a limit to how many creatures are affected by the black tentacles spell. Even if there were, you couldn't designate an ally to be targeted last. Such spells are indiscriminate.

Poljen wonders which of his allies has cast the spell creating the black tentacles. He may be slightly annoyed it also attacked him, but is more grateful it has grabbed some of his opponents. With Velon and Cratol stepping into the fray, he is more confident of the outcome of this actual battle. But he is left wondering about the overall plan. Then he notices some of the thugs drawing their blades and knows he doesn't have time to worry about the boss anymore.

"Now you realize that your boss sent you into greater peril than you knew, eh? If you wish to run, like your wiser companions, I will not chase you down. But if you stay, I promise nothing."

Out of Character: : Holding his action to see if any run. Any with blades out that come for him will suffer his attacks. I will roll them here. He will not attack any restrained/constricted by the tentacles, or fleeing, including (Especially) the wounded fellow.

From the area where Taz arrived, Lawrance completes his own spell, summoning a massive turbulence of air in the midst of the battling thugs! The Air Elemental surges forward at his command, barreling through all the enemy it can reach and tossing them left and right!
Specific Action: Conjure Elemental CR5 and have it move through as many bad guys (NO good guys) as possible (90' move), using the Whirlwind effect to toss them like leaves. Hold it's slam attacks for any major threats.
*Edit* Forgot init rolls.

Penelope backs up against a wall and out of the way, letting the Flaming Fist members pass to go do their jobs. She knows that Mari must be close by but is probably too well-hidden to be seen. Once all the guards have past her, Penelope will watch the rest of the “fight” from a safe distance.

She watches in horror as writhing black tentacles restrain and batter the thugs, Cratol and Poljen strike down the thugs, and a huge whirling air elemental tosses the thugs around like ragdolls into walls and onto the ground in this populous city. She holds her mouth agape at the sheer carnage of this sight. Blood is being splattered through the streets as some of the common thugs flee for their lives into alleyways as the superpowered force for good demolishes them mercilessly.

At this point, Penelope has been gently carrying Zhurtle close to her chest. She looks down at the cute reptile with her mouth still agape and notices that the turtle too has his mouth agape. The two share a moment of brief, silent understanding as the disaster continues to unfold.

Redheaded Mari runs past Penelope and smiles. She now has a dagger in each hand and a calm expression on her face. Mari will attack one of the enemy that has their back to her. She will lunge forward with curved blades at the ready. Mari tries to drive the blades through them.

Out of Character: : If the thugs break and run before she gets there then she will pursue those that ran. She will use her bonus action for her off hand attack.

The Protector. says...

Tazskan, Continues to maintain his concentration on the black tentacles spell. He briefly notices Lawrences entrance near him with a whirlwind, and elemental.

However, with his next action.He observes the crowd in detail, how well his comrades are faring, who is running where? How many thug casualties if any? Whats happening now, particularly, now that Lawrence has entered the fray.

He observes escape routes, carefully, in case he needs to make a expedite retreat.

His next action, will be determined by the outcome his next observations, of the crowd, his comrades, the Thugs, and arrival of Flaming fists??

Specific Action: Tazskan, will get a birds-eye view seeing and hearing through Pseudodragon's eyes. Insight on the thugs action and reactions. Insight for escape routes.

The moment if, or when? The flaming fists (Local enforcement's) arrive, will drop concentration immediately on black tentacles, and spell will cease.
Won't offer resistance to them, and allow them to carry out their business.

Will, take cue from previous observation's, if his comrades choose to escape will do likewise, if they remain and fight, will stay. If they offer themselves, up to authorities will join them, taking ownership.
If escape, is the plan will become invisible again.

Out of Character: Will roll initiative here.

The Quiet Shadow says...

Zarra, invisible though Tazskan's spell cast upon her, would work to get into position to use her bow and help end the battle though take longer then she intended to do so with the chaos all around her. Yet finally, once she has an opponent in sight and prepared to duck into the shadows knowing the invisibility spell will fall.

Out of Character: : A bit late to the party, but perhaps I can still play a part in the tail end of things.

Specific Action: She will attack from a position with a clear of line of sight to an opponent yet in a place where she might be able to stealth afterwards.
