Bricksandparts Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Note: On the stats it says I did not do any damage. Encouraged by his better luck, Alf will attack Criminal SWashbuckler A from the front row!
JimBee Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 OoC: you also forgot to update my health after taking damage in the previous round, I should be at 10 now. (and let's hope being nice to the QM cures my bad luck.. ) Note: On the stats it says I did not do any damage. Geez. Sorry guys, fixed.
CMP Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Atramor grins at his increased power and glares at the pirates. He then charges at Criminal Swashbuckler B from the front row! My Mead should be gone.
Sandy Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Ellaria was pleased that she had gotten such a good hit on the pirate, so she repeated her attack against the Criminal Swashbuckler B from the front row.
Jebediahs Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 After a spot of liquid courage, Atramor pushes his way to the front. Namyrra follows suit, eager for revenge. "Well have at 'em, then. I will attack Criminal Boatswain from the back row with an earth spell." Order of Actions: Atramor Gibbin Namyrra Uq Alexis Fenral Alexis Fenral Ellaria Arbour Alf Gregory En Sabah Nur

Namyrra finally manages to cast a spell, bringing the Boatswain down by 34 health (17x2), and Alexis follows suit by shooting an arrow through his torso ([10x2]+15=35). With the second Swashbuckler defeated, Ellaria moves onto the Boatswain, but he cannot attack Alexis or the cleric. Alf goes on a Frenzy, causing 18 damage to both remaining opponents. Nur avoids the Boatswain's whip only to be kicked in the face for 5 damage.

EDIT: QM Note: Forgot about Nur's lucky effect. Unfortunately in this instance it was for the worse (I think that's how it works...)
CMP Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Atramor grins drunkenly as she Swashbuckler falls to the Sapper. He wheels around (twice), but eventually ends up facing Criminal Swashbuckler A, who he charges at in another slurred rage from the front row. "*Hic* take THAT." Jim, the Lucky effect is to take the better effect of the two.
JimBee Posted December 24, 2011 Author Posted December 24, 2011 QM Note: Actually, I did ask a while back if the lucky effect was subjective to the special damage, but Sandy said that Shield > Critical Hit > Hit > Miss > Damage > Special Damage, no matter what.

Bricksandparts Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Alf grateful at his skill (The waiting in between quests must have made him a bit unprepared) and attacks Criminal Swashbuckler A again from the Front Row! "Stupid dummy not go on Alf boat!"
Jebediahs Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 The criminal Boatswain assaulted En Sabah Nur with a flurry of whip strikes to prevent the mage from casting another spell. Nur evaded each attack but mistakenly moved closer to the pirate in an attempt to make his long range weapon ineffective. Unfortunately for Nur, Boatswain was as skilled in close combat as he was in long range attacks "Son of a bi-" Nur was unable to provide a defense as he was kicked in the face. "Ouch...Well that's not going to do much to appease my headache. I will try another tactic." En Sabah Nur quickly read the text from his Scroll of Confusion and directed the spell at Criminal Boatswain from the back row as his eyes and nose began to swell. Order of Actions: En Sabah Nur Atramor Gibbin Alexis Fenral Alexis Fenral Namyrra Uq Alf Gregory Ellaria Arbour
Quarryman Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 With great pleasure Namyrra saw her spell form and connect with the boatswain who swayed from the impact. Encouraged by this she once again started casting a Darkness spell at the Boatswain from the back row
Sandy Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 With the swashbuckler she originally fought against gone, Ellaria turned her attention to Criminal Swashbuckler A and attacked him from the front row.
JimBee Posted December 25, 2011 Author Posted December 25, 2011 QM Note: Masked, I understand that it's the holidays and that something might have come up, but since there's little danger in repeating the same attack, I'm going to assign Alexis those actions. As it is Christmas Day I will not be around until tomorrow probably, and I'm sure most of you will be busy as well. So no worries on getting actions in, we'll most likely continue the 26th or as soon as all actions get in. Happy Holidays! Results of Round 3 of Ship Boarding Battle En Sabah Nur vs. Boatswain - Confusion Atramor Gibbin vs. Swashbuckler A - Hit Alexis Fenral vs. Boatswain - Summon (Ocven Ice Dragon) Ocven Ice Dragon vs. Boatswain - Spirit Attack Alexis Fenral vs. Boatswain - Critical Hit Namyrra Uq vs. Boatswain - Special Damage Alf Gregory vs. Swashbuckler A - Extra Critical Hit Ellaria Arbour vs. Boatswain - Damage En Sabah Nur begins again by reading one of Elphaba's mysterious scrolls, casting a confused effect on the Boatswain, on top of the sealing which is just beginning to wear off. Atramor lands another drunken swing of his Sapper on the Swashbuckler, bringing him down to minimal health (36 damage). Alexis feels her enhanced powers as an Evoker, and summons Ocven the Ice Dragon spirit for the first time in battle! At the elf's command, the spirit attacks the Boatswain for 15 damage, which takes one ether. Alexis isn't through, though, and shoots another fatal arrow into the torso of the Boatswain ([10x2]+15=35). Namrrya dodges the Boatswain's fury again, and Alf hits the Swashbuckler hard over the head, sending him flying over the edge of the ship into the waves, which have now become choppy ([8x3]+10=34). Ellaria takes a hit from the last remaining enemy, who manages to do so despite his confused state (-10 HP). The sky has grown dark as clouds from the horizon move in, and the water has become fierce. Rain begins to trickle down, and the battle rages on with just the Boatswain remaining.

CMP Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 Atramor yanked the dagger from the corpse of the Swashbuckler, whirling around to face the Boatswain. He could feel the effects of the Mead wearing off...still, he intended to get his money's worth (figuratively speaking), and he stumbled towards the still-familiar pirate, stabbing at the man from the front row. Slowly, he felt the rain pattering down on his hat. McCafferey squawked up at the sky indignantly, as if annoyed Neron and Neredice had decided at that moment to start squaring off.
Sandy Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 OoC: If there's only one weak enemy left, the rest of the battle should be played automatically since everyone will target that enemy anyway. As the enemies fell one by one, Ellaria was relieved that this sudden battle would soon be over. She prepared for one final assault, this time against the Criminal Boatswain from the front row.
Quarryman Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 Feeling more and more frustrated with how her spells flat out refused to form properly Namyrra pondered if just jumping overboard might be a good way to clear her head, but a quick look at the rough seas and dark skies convinced her otherwise, so instead she for the hopefully last time went to the back row to cast a Darkness spell at the Boatswain.
Jebediahs Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 Nur took a step backward as the impressive dragonwithno100x100pxpictureavailable took form. "I'll... attack Criminal Boatswain from the back row with an earth spell."

Masked Builder Posted December 25, 2011 Posted December 25, 2011 "Take that you pirates! I will attack the Criminal Boatswain from the back row with my bow." OoC: It's fine JimB. I was doing some traveling yesterday.
JimBee Posted December 26, 2011 Author Posted December 26, 2011 OoC: If there's only one weak enemy left, the rest of the battle should be played automatically since everyone will target that enemy anyway. I know, but there was danger in putting Nur first in the battle order, and I didn't have enough time anyway.

However, the tempest rages on, and a maelstrom forms between the ships. Both crews struggle to keep their ships under control. Orders are shouted, but the efforts are futile. Both ships are overcome by the extreme weather, and swirl around and around until they are eaten by the sea. The heroes go down, holding onto anything they can find, not hearing their own shouts over the storm... *** The party awakes on a beach. As they come to, they notice that the sky and sea have become perfectly calm, and there is a gentle breeze rolling through. They are on the sandy beach of a lush island. Beyond the beach a dense jungle can be seen. The only other souls in sight are those of Captain Whales and Thimlin. What will the party do?
CMP Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Atramor awakens, spitting out a copious amount of sand, seawater, and Mead-induced vomit before standing, swaying on his feet, soaked to the bone. He merely wrings the Cloak of the Elven Spy free of moisture, however, and laughs harshly. "Haven't seen a storm like that since....well, I never had." He belated realized McCafferey was not by his side - he whirled around, concern swimming in his eyes, before he noted the chicken, surprisingly completely dry, bawking quietly at the shapes of his companions. He sighs in relief, while digging around in the sand for the Sapper, which he quickly sheaths. He then looks over his fellow Heroes, who he quickly notices probably wouldn't have had as much experience with such weather as he did. "You alright, mates?" he asks, checking to make sure they're all alive, and then sitting down on a sideways piece of driftwood, staring at the morning sun rising over the horizon. "Well, that ain't the most typical nor preferable means of ending up right smack damn in the middle of nowhere." He then vomits again, slightly regretful of the Mead, but knowing it was rather important to his fellow Heroes and crew that he did so. Magic wasn't the best way of solving problems, in his mind. A good stab with a dagger, a swift decapitation with a sword, or even a heavy bash on the skull with a staff were more appealing to him.
Masked Builder Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Alexis picks herself up off the ground. It had been many years since she had been in such a storm, but she still didn't like it. She brushed the sand off her self, wishing she could take a bath to get it out of her hair. After the rogue spoke she turned to him and answered. "I'm fine, a bath would be nice, but I can live for now. What do you say we ask the captain where we are?" OoC: I should have 11/17 ether.
JimBee Posted December 26, 2011 Author Posted December 26, 2011 OoC: I should have 11/17 ether. Nope, you spent one to keep the ice dragon in play for another round.
Jebediahs Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Loot: 10 gold - Ellaria 10 gold - En Sabah Nur 10 gold - Alexis "Yes, I appear to be in one piece. And all of my equipment is intact as well. Perhaps we'll have a look around once everyone checks in." Nur's eyes widened as he realized their was no sign of their ship.
Sandy Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 OoC: I just noticed that my inventory in the party listing has two extra scrolls. I should only have the Scroll of Sealing I borrowed from Atramor, unless I've missed something. Ellaria gets up and takes a look around. "I don't think we're in Eubric anymore, Toto... Uh..." The cleric holds her head to clear her thoughts. Who is this Toto she was talking about, anymore? Then she turned to her companions. "Are everyone alright? Oh Namyrra and Nur, you both seem to be wounded. I don't seem to be in a particularly good shape myself, either..." Ellaria heals Namyrra Uq, En Sabah Nur and herself for 3 ether, then gulps down one of her tonics to restore 5 ether.
