Just interested to see how other referees would handle this situation.

Just interested to see how other referees would handle this situation.

The party, minus one character, are leaving a shop and find themselves confronted by four ruffians. The fifth member of the party, a Deft Halfling Assassin, was two minutes away at his aunt's. To see whether she kept him talking a while or not, he rolls a d6 with a 50% chance and succeeds, so he rocks up behind the ruffians, unbeknownst to them. Combat begins, and he goes 2nd in initiative, before the ruffians. How would you handle him sneaking up and making a dagger attack?
