Yey, character details!
Lin -
Depending on how loud the public place is, Lin might actually catch the sound of the string going off. If it's too loud, she's going to judge the trajectory of impact. The chances of hitting her? Slim to none. Her girlfriends habits have rubbed off and Lin rarely leaves her back to an open space. She was already good at spacial awareness even before (spoilers).
Then begins the hunt.
Lin's an accomplished hunter/tracker and has had to give chase in public places before. Advantage hers as she's very used to scaling/climbing/jumping into locations with high vantage points.
The real danger comes from if the person is aware of this fact and used the arrow to lead Lin into a trap. Hunter instincts or no, an urban predator she is not. Fortunately, these days she's not likely to be alone in the pursuit.
Who could it be? Lin's had a long adventuring career, so there's a number of people she's probably ticked off along the way. What she wants to know, however, is if it's someone from her origins.
Eric -
The arrow will Ricochet off of a Stoneskin, Guaranteed. Eric is used to the intrigues of courts more dangerous than a simple stray arrow. Eric, however, would not peruse. Instead, he'd begin to call his contacts to investigate the matter and get back to him. He's a busy man after all, a single assassination attempt can't stall his day.
Hyrist -
This is a guy who'd likely take a hit from it, then go charging after the person till he got a better look or some sort of lead to pass on to his brother, or until he passes out from blood loss. But that would take a lot. Hyrist's from the same background as Eric, he just has no magic to spare.
'Bramble Bill' -
Bill's likely to have returned fire as soon as he's realized the arrow was shot. He's a former poacher. But that's about all he's going to be able to do. He's got someone else to watch over. He will try to figure out if it its one of his former Comrades though. But quietly. He's still got some friends.
My other characters? Shot and panicked, going to Free Company and local healers for help. Depending on the character, they'll be able to provide varying amounts of information as to what went on.
