You mentioned that they were some form of distraction, so I just stated in their current form they had no effect on Jaldoa, nor did he notice them.

How quickly did your character manage all of that? My character had the momentum yours didn't remember, so the moment he hit the ground he was rolling and running away, while your character was mid-roll followed by throwing coins at empty air and then pulling out some thingy and then spotting my character through the trees and then intercepting with his coins. I could probably run that distance faster than your character could do those things, but my jungle troll definitely could.
