4 Crew (8) Crew #1 - #8 except #2, who is prone, but now conscious, running for the cabin/shelter.
Yoggrith and Sanne both spot the form of the huge elemental a small distance off of the stern of the ship.
The second elemental, brings two more fists of air down onto the gnome, his is able to avoid the first, but the second cascades over his small form cracking his freshly knit rips.
Heeding Voadam's words, the elven archer focuses his shots on the elemental not confounded by the wizard's spell. All three arrows strike true, the elemental sputters once, then explodes into hundreds of unorganized torrents of wind.
Its brain scrambled, the elemental continues to lash out at its attackers, catching Dalwir and Sanne with slashing tendrils of air. Sanne swings her crackling rapier once again in response, but loses her footing on some blowing flotsam on the deck, spoiling the attempt. (AP used for Sannes riposte, MISS)
Dalwir lunges at the elemental twice and manages to connect once, further wounding the creature.
Jaxel lets out a sigh as the elemental was destroyed in front of him,Aye, I had im finally where I wanted im and now its gone .. Bullocks! He notices the others looking towards the aft and sees the returning form of the elemental.
Lieutenant Isolda, spotting the form of the elemental off the aft pulpit, screams,ITS BACK! and grabs a vial from her belt and drinks it. All her visible wounds disappear.
"Thank you sir," Sanne says after the halfork heals her.
"Now, if you would assist the Captain and I in removing the presense of this creature, which is an affront to my House, I would appreciate it.
The elemental appears somewhat startled by the scream from the first-mate, and Sanne capitalizes on it, executing a quick spin and slashing twice with her glowing rapier, infusing the creature with an enormous amount of electricity, which breaks down the last vestige of will keeping the mass of air together its form breaks down into several gusts of air, which scatter to the four winds.
"It's moved to the back, has it? Interesting." Yoggrith murmurs amidst the chaos. His eyes close momentarily to get a sense of whose life force is ebbing, then begins moving straight at that person. Through the Shadow's power, Yoggrith notices that the downed crewman is on death's door, and infuses his still form with the power of his diety. The man chokes a few times, but his eyes open.
Hearing the scream from the back deck, Morika spots the dark form of the elemental. She laughs into the face of the whirlwinds and screams again into the sky, lightning playing along the clouds before spearing through the elemental which has made its way back into view. She grimaces slightly when she notices that the lightning stroke was not as powerful as before.
Voadam scowls at the elemental's reappearance and with a violent gesture flings four darts of pure magic to streak unerringly towards the elemental off the stern. Remembering a bit about elemental's and their element affinities, he glides back down to the ship deck for the moment.
30 Elemental #1 (Lightly Wounded) - Confused Returns to the ship, moves to D/E/F 2, attacks Lieutenant Isolda, HIT for 11 damage
26 Aeranduil (64/64) Move to E12, Attack Elemental #1, 1 hit for 14 damage before DR

4 Crew (8) Crew #1 - #8 except #2, move towards the cabin, load and fire their flaming crossbows at the elemental, 4 hits for 35 damage before DR
The scrambled elemental makes its return to the ship, as it crashes over the stern. It seeks out the closest living creature and slams it with a tendril of storm.
With unnatural speed, the elven archer bursts through the cabin and looses a pair of arrows at the creature, one of them finding its mark.
The captain yells out for the crew to form a firing line near the cabin, then closes on the elemental, striking the creature with his flaming rapier.
"Crazy tornados movin' all around." Jaxel grumped as he made his way closer to the enemy.
Sanne rushes to the captain's side, her rapier ready to riposte if the creature should get a clean attack at her.
"Shall we take down another one of these together, then, captain?" Sanne says. This was a Lyrandar airship she was fighting to defend; she would risk her life for one. For her own ship, she'd risk more than that.
As the crewman sputters back to life, the halfork immediately rises again and turns to face the other end of the ship. As he sees the elemental come back over the stern, he hustles forward himself to put him near the action. "Things are wrapping themselves up it appears. This is good. The Shadow falls across us to keep us safe."
Morika spins in mid-air and shrieks at the relentless elemental, hammering it with more lightning as it breaks over the stern.
The celestial touched wizard moves aft towards the stern and readies himself to swoop in should anyone need a flying rescue.
Sanne rushes to the captain's side, her rapier ready to riposte if the creature should get a clean attack at her.
"Shall we take down another one of these together, then, captain?" Sanne says. This was a Lyrandar airship she was fighting to defend; she would risk her life for one. For her own ship, she'd risk more than that.
OOC: I don't think Sanne can charge the elemental, because there are other people in her way (you can move normally through a square occupied by an ally, but I don't think you can charge through one), so she'll take one move action to move to F6, and then another move action to Tumble to F3 (she can't fail a DC 15 tumble check). She'll use an AP to Storm's Riposte if attacked.

OOC: Double move to the group. Intention is to try and reach Jaxel for eventually healing, so he'll get as close to him as he can.
Aeranduil continues firing arrows at the elemental.
Rapid Shot + Woodland Archery on Elemental #2.
Three arrows - Attack +15/+10/+15 for 1d8+7 each (if any arrow misses, each subsequent arrow receives a +4 to attack roll.

5 Morika (45/66) Call Lightning on Elemental #1 for 14 damage before save
5 Voadam (43/43) Surveys the scene.
4 Crew (8) Crew #1 - #8 except #2, reload and fire their flaming crossbows at the elemental, 1 hit for 5 damage before DR. Crewman #2 moves inside the central cabin for shelter.
The elemental continues acting in a strange manner it begins to babble something in an unknown language and remain silent hovering slightly off of the deck.
With unending movement, the elven archer rains down another 3 arrows on the elemental, the first and last finding some purchase, while the second impales itself on the wheel of the ship, grazing both Yoggrith and Sanne with the fletching as it almost takes off an ear or two..
Taking advantage of the brief respite from the elementals attacks, the captain brings his rapier up and down twice on the elemental. Let us send this monstrosity to the fires of Fernia!"
Jaxel takes a moment to survey the large airmass, trying to determine the best way to attack it without plummeting to the ocean below, unaware of the trail of blood he leaves behind him, or the pool that forms beneath him.
"One of your kind has fallen to my blade already today, creature. Shall we make it two?" She quickly begins another attack routine, feinting quickly with her off arm then deftly plunging the crackling rapier into the wind creature, arcs of electricity engulf the elemental briefly before fading.
The halfork watches the gnome giant-hunter continue his fighting ways, and the blood that drips from the numerous wounds Jaxel has acquired. Yogrrith slides up behind him and reaches out... letting his healing energy infuse the short warrior.
Morika continues to dance and call down strokes of lightning at the massive tower of air the entire area begins to take on an ozone-like odor.
Voadam feels he is in a good position so his allies can capitalize if it charges him mindlessly so he stays put. To his companions Voadam shouts "It might charge me, flee from me, stand confused, or stand and fight as the chaos I put in its mind bounces around moment to moment, be ready and it might expose itself tactically."
However Voadam keeps a close eye on the combat, ready to spring forth should a flying rescue be needed.
OOC: Shouldn't Sanne have been able to take two move actions (move to F6, tumble to F3) last turn? If I'm counting squares wrong or something, she'll tumble to F3 and attack this turn.

You are correct, I didn't see the tumble to F3 part, so will update the map.

Thanks.
"One of your kind has fallen to my blade already today, creature. Shall we make it two?"
Facing yet another elemental, Sanne's blade flashes twice as she attempts to find her own opening to strike it. If it offered her another opening, she'd take that as well.
OOC: Full attack the elemental, again using an AP for Storm's Riposte if attacked.

However Voadam keeps a close eye on the combat, ready to spring forth should a flying rescue be needed.
Morika scorches the skies again with her lightning, determined to at least take one of these air-brained elementals down or at least out. The last thing they needed was to be chased the entire journey!
OOC: Fifth verse, same at the first, a little bit louder, and a whole lot worse!
Bump, just to keep from falling to like the 4th or 5th page.
