"I wish I knew," Aria answered, "I was first hired on sf-" noticing the goblin's perked, pointed ears and keen interest, Aria bonked it across the temple with the sap. Its eyes rolled back unconsciously, its tongue lolled, and the back of its scalp thunked against the cobbles. She drew rope from her back and began tying the creature, gesturing to the body of the other and remarking, "Maybe you can loot the dead one while I do this, they might have valuable stuff - I mean, useful information, haha..." she winked conspiratorially, and her hazel eyes twinkled while she grinned a sharp-toothed grin. "Come to think of it, the little bugger's whole dead body just might fit in an extradimensional haversack if that's quicker; I'm wearing one and maybe you are..."<br/><br/>"...anyway, I was first hired on for this event, a few of her usual bodyguards were unavailable. The priest you saw had mentioned a priori he might use such a spell in such an event. I didn't ask where, getting the sense they liked to keep that privy. Maybe the residence I escorted her from and where I 'interviewed' before, though."<br/><br/>While tying the goblin, she'd stolen it's actually-rather-nice-looking cloak, as that made it much easier to tie the thing up anyway, also mentioning, "Can't wait to sell and split some of this stuff with ya, Rose, and thanks again."<br/><br/>She smiled at her handiwork with the rope on the goblin itself, gesturing to Rose that it was ready, as was she to hop piggyback on the enlarged lady, or however she meant to carry her. Then Aria's head flew up suddenly at a symphony of awful, carrying screams from a few blocks away; in the direction of the stadium but not necessarily within it. The screamers weren't visible back up the avenue, but a plume of smoke rose from above and behind the gingerbread-like shingled roofs of the last block on the left before the avenue ended at the stadium.<br/><br/><br/>Take 10 (I think she can here?) on use rope for 21, or rather 31 with the general +10 bonus use rope gets vs future escape artist checks<br/><br/>each goblin has:<br/>(mw = masterwork-quality looking weapon or armor, or high quality other item, like a piece of jewelry that might be magic or valuable-ish)<br/>(weapons and armor sized for Small creatures)<br/>mw rapier, chain shirt, cloak (means all 3 look mw)<br/>light crossbow, sleeve of 20 bolts<br/>5 daggers, 5 throwing hammers<br/>12 flasks alchemists' fire<br/>12 flasks of acid<br/><br/>each hellhound also has a mw-looking barding chain "shirt" - probably takes longer to pull off though - haven't found looting mechanics...
