Ershin, go ahead and take a turn - in the IC post above yours, I rolled initiative for Toria and it was 21.<br/><br/>(I'll sometimes roll initiative for PCs, since it can potentially save a post cycle, if all the outstanding PCs turn out to be after the NPCs.)<br/><br/>Generally speaking when multiple rolls for something happen, I like to use the first one. I avoids selection effects (the result of the first roll having an effect on whether the second ever happens.) In this case, if I'd rolled lower for Toria than the NPCs, I would have taken the NPCs' next turn before you did your roll...so if I were to use your roll, it would mean in effect that Toria was getting the worser of two rolls (since you would have either never made the 2nd roll, or not gotten the benefit of it, since the NPCs would've already taken their first non-surprise turn).
