The 2nd Fleet: Journey to the Edge of the Known World — IC

[Fialova]

As she hears her lover shout, Caoimhe notices their leader once more at risk of losing his life. While she wants to rush immediately to his aid, she decides first to rush towards the larboard railing to assist Ser Eliva first, as they are easier for her to reach in the initial chaos of the deck. Leaping into action, she makes short work of the two strange creatures she finds, and shudders at the tentacle looming above her as they fall to the ground. We need to do something about those, but how can we focus on them with all of these smaller ones swarming? We must get rid of them first.

Mechanics

Minor Action: Enter Stunning Palm stance
Effect: I can't be dazed or stunned, and until the stance ends I can use the Stunning Palm Attack power

Map

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[FinalTemplar]

Taliesin is frozen for a moment as he takes in the chaos around him. The screaming and sounds of battle almost overwhelm him for a moment before he grips the sheathe of his sword tightly. "Fy llafn i fydd y grym sy'n cymryd eu hanadl olaf." He says almost under his breath before he suddenly disappears, appearing a short way away and slashing out at his enemies.

[Namelessjake]

The battle continues to rage as the ship's captain and his first mate charge into the fray atop the aft castle. Meanwhile Tofyr darts back from the creatures towards Zima, loosing two crossbow bolts in quick succession as he does. One manages to find its mark dropping yet another of the creatures as a couple more also fall to the ship's crew.

[Namelessjake]

Ilmoto's mix of magic and alchemy clear out a good number of the creatures from the aft castle, while towards the bow of the Sea Wolf, many of the creatures and the giant tentacle gripping the ship being to move slowly thanks to his efforts.

The tentacles themselves prove they not only threaten the ship but the crew too. One crewman is sent flying backwards as the colossal appendage swipes at him, while another wraps itself around Ser Lyari, restraining the young knight and lifting her several feet off the deck. Meanwhile the tentacle towards the bow slams down onto the deck sending splinters flying everywhere as it damages the ship, however it appears Ilmoto's powder begins to work its magic as the tentacle goes limp and curls up on the deck of the ship.

The battle begins to be turning in the defender's favour as you clear the deck of the monsters, however there are shouts from those close to the ship's railings as several more of the creatures emerge from the water ready to begin the climb up the side of the ship. This group however are accompanied by three similar but larger creatures. The larger creatures wear crude armour and carry primitive weapons made from driftwood and coral.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[Scratcherclaw]

Louie watches in horror as Ser Lyari is grabbed by one of the gargantuan tentacles, feeling more and more as though he's become trapped in a horror novel. Gods, what have we gotten ourselves into? He grits his teeth, aiming his bow at the tentacle, hoping to maim it enough to free the woman.

[ratwizard]

Zima gasps as an armored fish-person climbs aboard the deck right in front of her. She clenches her teeth, focusing her mind. The Sea Wolf shall protect us from the sea, like we protected it from the flames.

With a creak, a phantom projection of the mainmast's boom swings forward at a dangerous speed, catching the attacker square in the chest. The fish-person is flung seaward, ricocheting off a writhing tentacle as it returns from where it came.

"I can't believe that worked," the seer whispers, turning her attention toward the portside of the deck. She rushes over to Caoimhe, feeling safer with every step. "I'm right behind you my love," she shouts to the woman against the din.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim.

In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

[Fialova]

Caoimhe smiles as the smaller creatures begin to fall, and as her beloved rushes to her side. However, the large tentacles around their ship still cause her worry, and with Zima so close, she can't help but to fear for the woman's safety. Not wanting to put her at more risk, she rushes towards the nearest of the large appendages and immediately tries to draw its attention.

[Namelessjake]

As Taliesin attacks one of the giant tentacles, another of the sea creatures tries to climb up onto the deck next to him. Reacting quickly the elven scholar deftly cuts down the beast sending its lifeless body tumbling down into the water below where it disappears in a splash. Meanwhile on the port side of the ship, another of the beasts along with one of the larger creatures also reach the deck. The larger throws its primitive trident at Louie, grazing the elf, while the smaller creature charges at Zima, slashing her with its gnarled claws.

The ship's crew and the other explorer's guild members continue to fight back though, as more of the beasts fall to Tofyr's crossbow bolts and the crew's swords.

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[Namelessjake]

More of the sea creatures reach the deck of the ship, charging at Zima and more of the crew, striking them all. One of the crew is wounded by the attack, their blood seeming to drive the nearby into a frenzy.

Ser Percival moves to help fight off one of the large tentacles restraining the Sea Wolf. He strikes the tentacle which responds, recoiling from the attack before quickly wrapping itself around the young knight and lifting him off the deck much like one of the others did to his fellow knight Ser Lyari. She is still fighting against the tentacle however it suddenly tightens its grip around the woman crushing her. It then relaxes, letting her drop to the floor where she lays, still conscious but heavily wounded.

The tentacle to the aft of the ship slams into on of the crew, its great bulk and speed killing them instantly. The other tentacle at the ship's bow begins to stir, moving again as the effects of Ilmoto's spell appear to be wearing off.

Those near the edge of the ship see three more of the armed and more intelligent creatures emerging from the waters.

[ratwizard]

As two of the abominable creatures surround Zima, she feels the rake of their claws — tearing through her seer's robe and rending her skin with a burning sting.

The pain and the fear swirl in her mind, and she lets out a bloodcurdling scream in the face of her attackers as she tries to remove herself from their onslaught. Involuntarily amplified through her mind-tap, her wordless cry echoes and echoes and echoes inside their fishy skulls. They desperately claw at their faces and eyes and ears, unable to escape the beyond-deafening screech as they sink to the deck, dead or simply catatonic.

Eyes narrowed on the tentacle, he sees an opening as it released Ser Lyari is released from its malevolent grasp. He focuses and plucks on his bowstring, a stirring chord echoing from it in the direction of the tentacle.

Ser Lyari picks her self up and pauses to catch her breath for a moment, recovering from the tentacle's brutal constriction. Meanwhile the Arc knight Ser Elvia loosens another bolt of lightning from her sword. Arcing from her blade it strikes on of the attacking creatures electrocuting it.

One of the crew attacks the tentacle holding Ser Percival, burying an axe deep in its flesh. The tentacle recoils in pain, dropping the young knight as it does, sparring him the wounds Lyari took in a similar fashion.

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[FinalTemplar]

Taliesin takes a moment to recover after his swift retaliation against the sea creature. He sheathes his blade and spends most of his remaining effort attempting to avoid the tentacle as it picks up and then is forced to let go of Ser Percival, thanks to an attack from another member of the crew.
"I call upon thee, Bronte the Stormlord! I pray to you now, to smite our foes! Heed mine call in our time of need, so that I may continue to act in thy name!" He shouts proudly as he holds his katana's sheathe firmly, and then slashes out at the tentacle in a flash.

Mechanics

Religion Roll to see if Bronte hears his prayers: [1d20+6]=8+6=14
Minor Action: Aegis of Assault vs Tentacle 4. This ability allows me to use Guardian's Counter as a reaction.
Standard Action: Eldritch Strike vs Tentacle 4 AC: [1d20+12]=15+12=27. Damage: [1d8+9]=6+9=15. The attack also forces the enemy to Slide, if that would work here I'd like to try and slide the tentacle away from the ship, but I think that's more the bounds of a Push or Shove.

The winds seem to pick up for a moment as Taliesin shouts his plea to one the ancestors, however beyond that his prayer seems to have fallen on deaf ears. The creatures towards the bow of the ship finish off one of the heavily wounded crew before moving to encircle another. Two of the larger creatures climb up near Caoimhe, she is able to land a solid blow against one of them but it doesn't stop them from surrounding her. She is able to dodge one of their tridents but not the other as they attack in unison from both sides.

Aft, the ship's captain pauses to challenge energy into his sword. It begins to crackle with arcs of electricity, similarly to Ser Elvia's, however unlike with the Arcane Knight it does not leap forth from his blade. He slashes at the tentacle drawing blood. As he strikes it, the electricity arcs from the tentacle to one of the nearby creatures, frying it alive.

The creature's sudden demise frees up Pierna's first mate who had been engaged in melee with the beast. Tekito rushes past Ser Elvia, sliding down the railing of the aftcastle stairs, before burying her blade in the back of one of the creatures around Caoimhe. Pulling her bloodied sword from the beast's back she gives the Explorer a nod.

Tofyr lets another bolt fly at one of the larger creatures, however this time he misses his mark, the bolt embedding itself harmlessly in the deck of the Sea Wolf.

Looking around, Ilmoto realises he might be in the safest spot on the ship.
His allies, not so much. Caoimhe is standing dangerously close to the ports bulwark flanked by monsters from the deep. Zima and Louie are also under attack. Ilmoto jumps down the aft in an attempt to close in on his enemies.
Then he falls.
Ilmoto's hurts himself on a pet project, safely hidden away in one of his many pockets.
With a command the wooden and metal parts that crushed his fall move towards the starboard and ignite.
Hellish flames spring forth from the hound-like construct as it bites the enormous tentacle.

Mechanics

Move From P11 to P12 by hopping down [1d20+3]=1+3=4 Fail, so Ilmoto falls and is proned.
Minor Action: Summon Magma Beast in U19
Standard Action: Apply Inferno Oil to Flaming Incendiary dagger +1
Magma Beast Intrinsic Nature: attack Tentacle 4 [1d20+10]=7+10=17 VS. reflex
[1d10+9]=6+9=15
15 fire damage and 5 ongoing fire damage (save ends)

Another of the crew falls to the creatures as those still standing continue to try and fight back, with one rushing to try and aid Louie. Meanwhile two of the tentacle whip at both the ship's captain and Taliesin, knocking both men to the floor with their immense weight. One of the others attacks the ship itself sending more splinters flying everywhere. Louie's chord however appears to have an affect on the tentacle he targeted and it releases it's grip of the ship, moving away from the vessel as it does. Three more of the weaker creatures emerge from the water as the assault on the ship continues.

A sharp pain stings through Louie's body as he's caught by the creature's trident. Gritting his teeth, he breathes through it, stepping away to give him some breathing room from the monster. Gods be good... What have we done to deserve this fate? Once out of arm's reach, he nocks another arrow, attempting to shoot it near-pointblank at his foe.

Looking to the deck, he catches sight of Taliesin, bloodied and bodied on the ground. "As good as a nap sounds right now, this isn't the time nor place," he says with a pained chuckle, his words soothing the man's wounds and attempting to encourage him to keep up the fight.

Standard: Jinx Shot on Deep One 1
Attack: [1d20+12]=5+12=17 vs AC = Hit?

Watching Caoimhe suffer harm from the sea creatures pains Zima even more than her own injuries. I will protect you, as you protect me, she swears to the elf. Her eyes go wide and she bares her teeth at the armored sea-person, placing her hands on her temples, and concentrating intensely. Transferring her own fears to the creature, it lurches around Caoimhe and swings frantically at one of its own in self-defense. Why do you attack us so? she demands of her target, leaving her mind-link open whilst hardly expecting a response.

The seer turns her head right and catches a glimpse of the forecastle where she notices a surviving crewmember surrounded by sea monsters. "Come! Quickly! We can fend them off together," she cries out, repositioning in a defensive position behind her partner.

Zima

Opening your mind to the creature you sense a presence unlike any you have ever felt before. The creature clearly possesses some intelligence but it's mind is alien to you. The message you receive is muddled and strange but you are able to feel out some of its meaning. Kill... Eat... Sacrifice...

So close to his target, Louie's arrow fails to find its mark. Tofyr is charged by one of the creatures but he deftly uses his crossbow to harmlessly parry away its trident. The crewman near to the senior explorer also has success, striking down another of the weaker creatures.

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[Fialova]

With the tentacle now temporarily out of commission from Louie, Caoimhe fully focuses her attention for the time being on the nearby larger sea creatures. Bracing herself for follow-up attacks from the beasts, she attacks both with a strong leg sweep, hoping to knock them off balance. If we can get rid of the small ones while the big one is distracted, this will all be much easier. 

Mechanics

Move Action: Eternal Mountain Movement Technique
Effect: gain resist 4 all until the end of my next turn. Shift to (M, 19)

Minor Action: Nature's Wrath feature to mark Deep One 6

Standard Action: Eternal Mountain Attack Technique
Attack vs Deep One 5: [1d20+8]=15+8=23 vs Fort = hit
Attack vs Deep One 6: [1d20+8]=5+8=13 = hit?
Hit: [2d8+5]=7+5=12 12 damage, and the target is knocked prone. I gain resist 3 to the attacks of any hit target until the end of my next turn, though I think that is overridden by the movement technique.

No Action: Eternal Tide Flurry of Blows
Effect: Deep One 6 takes 4 additional damage

No Action: prepared to use Warden's Fury or Warden's Grasp as mark punishment if either condition is violated by the Tentacle

Despite the creature moving, Ser Elvia is able to maintain her spell, keeping her lightning bolt on target. The surrounded crew member towards the ship's bow heeds Zima's words and runs towards the safety of allies. As she does, the larger creature jabs at her with its trident, hitting her in the back - although she is still able to get away.

Ser Lyari follows her, attacking the creature downed by Caoimhe. Her flurry of strikes leaves it wounded and unable to move.

Taliesin is tossed aside and feels the wind get knocked out of him. He winces in pain as he takes a moment to recover from the shock of the blow, then looks around at the continuing combat. Is this the end?... There seems no end to these creatures. My life's work... it cannot be folly, right? He thinks to himself before slowly, shakily rising to his feet. "I'm not out of this fight yet." He utters, spitting some blood from his mouth.

[Namelessjake]

The creatures chased after Ser Lyari and the member of the crew who retreated from the bow of the Sea Wolf. Meanwhile the people and creature alike continue to trade blows in the melee to the port side of the ship - Caoimhe is raked by a trident but is able to dodge at the last second preventing the attack from dealing a serious wound.

To the aft, Pierna stands and unleashes another lightning infused attack on the tentacle gripping his ship, spurring on those around him to continue to try and fight it off. Tofyr darts backwards from the creatures, loosening another two bolts in quick succession which fells one more of the beats.

Ilmoto stands up. I am hurt. Caoimhe is still in a tough spot. I can change that.
Ilmoto produces a bottle labelled 'extremely volatile' and uncorks it.
He hurls the bottle towards the tentacle near Caoimhe. The bottle explodes on impact and rains fire on the tentacle and those nearby.

Mechanics

Move Action: Stand up
Standard Action: Freezing Burst centered on J21
Against Tentacle: [1d20+10]=8+10=18 Vs. Reflex
Ingerno Oil Secondary Attack: [1d20+8]=17+8=25 Vs. Reflex On hit target gains vulnerable 5 fire (save ends)
Free Action: Activate flaming weapon item power: target takes [1d6]=1 Fire damage (6 with weakness) and ongoing 5 fire damage (save ends)

Against Ser Lyari: [1d20+10]=4+10=14-5 for 9 VS Reflex no slide on hit.
Against Deep One 5 [1d20+10]=3+10=13 VS Reflex On hit slide to K18
Against Deep One 6 [1d20+10]=14+10=24 VS Reflex On hit slide to K19
Against Sea Creature 18 [1d20+10]=18+10=28 VS Reflex no slide because I assume it kills.

All targets hit take:[1d6+7]=4+7=11 Fire damage (this damage applies before the weakness from Inferno Oil I think)

Magma Beast Intrinsic Nature: attack Tentacle 4 [1d20+10]=6+10=16 VS. reflex
[1d10+9]=7+9=16 fire damage and 5 ongoing fire damage (save ends)
Ilmoto is slowed until the end of next turn.

Immediate Reaction

Use Contingency robe when able (damaged by an attack while bloodied)

The blast from Ilmoto's bottle nearly knocks one of the creatures off the edge of the ship, but instead its bounces off the railing and lands on the floor. The creature Zima had previously sent flying away from the Sea Wolf finally manages to climb its way up the starboard side of the ship and onto the deck, although it is the only creature to emerge from the water with the steady stream of the creatures apparently having come to at least a temporary halt.

The member of the crew who retreated from the ship's forecastle, is followed and struck down by the trident of one of the creatures. The tentacles to the stern and starboard try to grab Tenant Zavil and whip at Taliesin however both are quicker enough to dodge them. Louie's spell forces the portside tentacle even further from the ship, although unmolested the tentacle gripping the Sea Wolf's bow constricts more, further damaging the vessel.

Round 5

Go: Louie, Zima

Map

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[Scratcherclaw]

Louie takes another deep breath and attempts to fire another arrow at his nearest target. It goes wayward, however, and the elf frowns. Determined not to give up yet, he gives the apparent battlefield a cursory glance, eager to aid an ally in need. We might still pull through...

Mechanics

Standard: Jinx Shot on Deep One 1
Attack: [1d20+12]=2+12=14 vs AC = Miss

Ready Interrupt: Rhyme of the Blood-Seeking Blade

With the battle turning in their favor for the moment despite the crew loss, Zima ignores the pit in her stomach and continues on. Seeing the tentacles abated, she manifests an after-image of their presence, forcing it into the minds of the creatures before her.

Caoimhe's blows finally kill one of the larger creatures. Ser Elvia makes her way down the stairs from the aft castle, holding her sword aloft, maintaining her bolt of lightning, continuing to electrocute another of the creatures. Meanwhile the still wounded Ser Lyari shows no signs of her injuries hindering her. She deftly deals a strike with her sword to one of the creatures before quickly turning it on another.

[Namelessjake]

Caoimhe is able to lure one of the creatures into a position where it is surrounded by her and some of the other defenders of the ship, however as she does one of the weaker creatures is able to land a heavy blow on her. However surrounding the bigger creature gives Tekito, the Sea Wolf's first mate, an opening. She darts in and, after an initial miss, is able to landing a killing blow.

Meanwhile the ship's captain continues to fight off the large tentacle to the aft of the ship and Tofyr fires another bolt at the creature Taliesin is engaged with, burying it deep in its shoulder.

Round 5

Go: Ilmoto

Mechanics

Taliesin: misses.

Deep One 1: Attacks Crew 6, 15 vs AC = miss.

Deep One 5: Attacks Crew 3, 14 vs AC = miss, Caoimhe punishes with Warden's Grasp, slides and slows/cannot shift until the end of this turn.

Sea Creature 16: Attacks Caoimhe, crits for 10 damage.

Captain Pierna: Intuitive Strike against Tentacle 1, crits for 11 lightning damage, until the Pierna's EONT allies gain +2 to attack rolls and CA against Tentacle 1.

Tekito Shimashu: Moves to (L, 20), Acrobatic Strike against Deep One 5, 14 vs AC = miss, Nasty Backswing, 27 vs AC = hit for 9 damage, kills.

Crew 3: Moves to (O,21), attacks SC16, 17 vs AC = miss.

Crew 5: Attacks Tentacle 1, 15 vs AC = miss.

Map

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Lyari: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Ser Elvia: The leader of the Arcane Knights on the expedition. While she is not wearing her full armour she is better armed and protected than most.

Crew: The various crewmen and crewwomen of the Sea Wolf. They wear no armour but they are seasoned sailors and equipped with pistols, swords and axes.

[BartNL]

On the starboard Ilmoto's mechanical hound has bitten down on the giant tentacle, and it's not letting go.
The hound roars as fire spout from it's body, and the tentacle begins moving slower and clumsier.
Ilmoto raises his good hand and with a flick of his fingers shoots a red bolt up into the sky which then strikes down the monster attacking Ser Lyari.
Magic missile, such an elegant spell in it's simplicity and effectiveness.
Then Ilmoto hears a loud thud as the tentacle under attack by his mechanical creation crashes on the deck seemingly lifeless.
"Good boy" Ilmoto says under his breath with a sly smile on his face.

Mechanics

Standard Action: Magic Missile against SC32 autohit so it kills

Magma Beast Intrinsic Nature: attack Tentacle 4 [1d20+10]=16+10=26 VS. reflex for:
[1d10+9]=9+9=18 fire damage and 5 ongoing fire damage (save ends)
Ilmoto is slowed until the end of next turn.

Immediate Reaction

Use Contingency robe when able (damaged by an attack while bloodied)

Two more of the creatures reach the ship's deck and charge at Taliesin and a nearby crewman, slashing at them with their gnarled claws. Caoimhe too takes another hit, being stabbed at by a trident. The tentacles attack again, slamming into the ship and just missing Tenant Zavil, as the one Louie managed to move away from the ship begins to make its way back towards the Sea Wolf. However the tentacle to starboard succumbs to the burning caused by Ilmoto and falls to the deck apparently lifeless, before it slowly slips off the ship and splashes into the water, disappearing beneath the waves once more.

Zima gasps as Caoimhe is stabbed with another trident.

Eyeing the malevolent sea creature still before him, Louie plucks another disconcerting note from his bowstring. No doubt, their hearing is adapted to sea life... He smirks as the creature reels backwards, clutching its head, and allowing one of the crew members an opportunity to swipe.

[Fialova]

Caoimhe is hit twice, both quite forcefully, but she manages to fight through the pain and shake off some of it. Annoyed by the incessant attacks from the strange sea creatures, she tries to finish off the two still remaining near her, in hopes that she can focus her attention back on the massive tentacles that seem set on destroying their ship. If we don't stop thing, it doesn't matter how many of these little ones we kill.

Taliesin quickly strikes down two of the creatures as Caoimhe also tries to strike back. She is less successful however one of the crew is able to kill one of the weaker creatures as Caoimhe leaves them open to attack. Ser Lyari catches her breath while Ser Elvia continues to electrocute one of the creatures, which, now free of other the other defenders of the ship, charges at her but fails to hit her while blinded by the magical energy beam.

Back towards the stern of the Sea Wolf, the ship's captain strikes again at the large tentacle, pinning it to the deck with his sword. One of his crew then proceeds to hack clean through it with an axe, severing it. The remaining stump appears to recoil in pain before retreating and slipping back beneath the waves.

Map

Map Info

Aft/Forecastles: The Aft and Forecastles of the Sea Wolf are about 10 ft above the main deck. Both have stairs to the port and starboard allowing access, although the walls can also be climbed with an athletics DC: 15.

Rigging & Masts: If you wish to climb the Sea Wolf's rigging it can be done so with an athletics DC: 10. The masts are 100 ft tall and require an acrobatics DC: 15 to not fall off of each turn unless in the crows nest squares. On the deck level, the masts don't take up any full squares and so can easily be moved around, entering any of the squares they occupy as normal.

Ship's Wheel and Anchor: The squares occupied by the ship's wheel on the aft castle and the anchor on the forecastle are both difficult terrain.

The Sea: For those who end up in the water, it is athletics DC: 15 to swim. Each turn in the water you must make the check, failure by 4 or less means you can't move, failure by 5 or more means you can't move and sink 1 square, success means you are allowed to move that turn. In the water you move at one-half your speed.

The side of the Sea Wolf is littered with features which make it climbable, athletics DC: 15 to climb up, using standard climb rules. The main deck of the ship is 20 ft above the water level while the fore and aft castles are an extra 10 ft higher.

Tentacles: As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square. They are numbered 1-4 in a clockwise direction starting from the upper leftmost. On their turn they will either attack enemies in range or attempt to deal damage to the Sea Wolf.

Enemy/Ally Info

Enemies

Sea Creature: These strange humanoid creatures stand on two feet and are comparable in size to a human or elf. Their necks have gills, their clawed hands and feet are webbed, and dorsal fins protrude from their heads and backs, making them something half way between fish and man.

Tentacles: The tentacles of a great beast beneath the waves, which threaten to pull the Sea Wolf under. As they are constantly moving, their squares can be entered and they can be attacked from any adjacent square.

Deep One: These are aquatic humanoid creatures much like the others attacking the side, however these are larger and appear more intelligent. They wield primitive spear weapons made of driftwood and coral, as well as wear a crude form of armour.

Allies

Captain Pierna: The Captain of the Sea Wolf and disgraced former Imardanian Naval Officer. He wields an ornate sword and pistol set.

Tekito Shimashu: The first mate aboard the Sea Wolf, Tekito is originally from Talguta and there are rumours amongst the crew that she was originally a pirate before meeting Captain Pierna. She fights with a Ghian blade.

Tenant Zavil: Armed with only a short sword and a staff, the zoologist from the Great Library is far from a skilled warrior.

Tofyr Sobriall: A Veteran Explorer's Guild member and one of its highest ranking members, leading the expedition. While he is a scholar and explorer by nature he has seen his fair share of combat in his endeavours, particularly in his youth, skilled with both the sword and crossbow.

Illoren Dorquen: The now second in command of the Explorer's Guild contingent of the Fleet, following the death of Talrelia during the loss of the Albatross. He is a seasoned explorer but not much of a fighter, only carrying a short sword for defence.

Ser Percivall: One of the young OCB knights assigned to your expedition for protection. He is the son of a prominent Order commander and by all accounts is only here to further his career. While he is not wearing his full armour he is better armed and protected than most.

[Namelessjake]

Ilmoto's fiery hound jumps up at the creature, tearing out its throat in a fiery blaze, as the survivors from the fighting on the aft castle rush forward to help in the continuing battles ahead of them.

The tentacle off to port finally moves back in range of the ship and swings at the current melee. Most are able to easily dodge it however Caoimhe is skewered in the leg by the nearby creature's trident. The creature's attack leaves her unable to avoid the heavy tentacle which smashes into her. The elf skids across the deck, her unconscious body coming to rest some feet away from her starting position.
