[Adventure] Path of Cold (DM: Velmont, Judge: Ozymandias79)

Georg, holding his staff in one hand, draws out a rune scribed book. A few quick words envelope the dwarf in a halo of fire. He then points his staff off the deck and a ball of flames shoots forth...

Right after flame's embroil the envoy, it is drawn away, ice forming around it. It is drawn into the construct, holding its fist's high as it calls upon its dark arts.

Unsure if the shark-headed humanoids mean to board the ship or hurl their harpoons, Raiyek readies his shield and a javelin. "Palladys guard us and grant us your valour," he utters softly. I hope we don't have to kill her, I don't want an enemy of Poseeydus, he thinks to himself.
[sblock=OOC]Minor: Draw javelin.
Move: None.
Standard: Ready shield.

Does anyone have any powers that pull enemies? I didn't see any glancing through everyone's sheets, but didn't notice any.

Consider Raiyek a willing target for Incarnation's Unspeakable Bond at any point, unless it would knock him out. [/sblock]

Dane is surprised when the shark-men surface the waters. It appears the little lady meant business after all. He readies his shield and draws one of his hand axes. The dwarf then braces himself against the mast. Whispering so that only Incarnation can hear, "Ya know, dwarves & water don't mix. When's the last time you've seen a dwarven priate?"

[sblock=Actions] Ready shield, draw hand axe, shift to M13 [/sblock]

The heat of the burst of fire from Georg seems to be absorb mainly by the water, without affecting the creature in the water.

Incarnation have more success and hit the Envoy, but the cold attack doesn't seems to have the plain effect on the creature.

[SBLOCK=OOC][MENTION=57255]Lord Sessadore[/MENTION]: Raiyek is acting after the monsters, so I ignore his action for now and you will be able to take a new course of action.

-''Well, I am not a follower of the god of war, but since I am not a follower of the god of diplomacy either, it seems to amount to the same thing...''

As she is hit by Incarnation, her appearance change into a grotesque mass of rubbery, squidlike flesh with numerous tendrils. She swims around the boat, shrugging most of the damage of the lingering spell cast by Incarnation. She raises her tendrils and five of them turns into sea serpents that jump on each of the member of the group. Dane raise his shield in time and Hadrak dodge easily and Goerg use his magic and ward himself from the attack. Incarnation and Raiyek are both grabbed by the serpents and feels their life being suck by the creature.

The warriors jump into the boat. Two team up on Georg, but the caster's shield seems to hold off the attacks. One get on Incarnation and strike true. One last go on Hadrak who block the coming blow.

One last fishman, slender and faster, jump into the boat, in front of Incarnation. He tries to surprise the warforged but Incarnation block the blow.

The group starts to feels a nauseated stench filling the deck. The smell is so string they have difficulty to breath.

[SBLOCK=OOC]
[MENTION=834]Mal Malenkirk[/MENTION]: Incarnation was at N15. That's 6 squares away. I guess you didn't wanted to run, so I moved Hadrak to N14. By the way, you can move your PC on the map yourself.

Vile Stench: This is an aura. Anyone starting a turn within 2 squares of a warrior or the slayer takes a -2 penalty to all attack roll until the start of their next turn. These aura doesn't stack with other such aura and it is a poison effect.
