(Oddly enough, there was no damage to the characters from the explosion, which is something you addressed. Also, it would have been lethal damage)

The man, who had been bound in magical chains already, could not have been more demoralized. Or rather, he could no longer be demoralized. The force of the explosion seemed to hurt him more than it hurt the others, in such a way even Mal could understand. Evyr's actions had made it obvious to her the man was dead, given his lack of any sort of reaction to the chains, and Mal could see the blood that smeared when the body was moved by the chains ever so briefly.

Wren pulled herself up, seeing the other two crowding around the man Mal had previously held. She saw others getting up farther down the street, too, so at least they were okay. This man wasn't moving at all anymore, though. She pushed past the others to [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/rolls/2341]search the body (22)[/url], but not finding much of use beyond a tattoo on his shoulder: a crescent moon emitting a flame burst on the top, bottom, and sides. "Any of you know anything about this? Or is it just a mark he got while drunk one day?"

(If Evyr looks, she does recognize it. It's the local branch of this country's thieves guild. She had a matching tattoo before she died, but no longer has it. Each branch has a different moon and flame burst pattern, and she knows a few different variations and to which branch they belong).
