Nightstorm once again tries to drive the point of his sword in between the chitinous plates of the reefclaw, but he flounders in the water and it prevents him from driving the tip home.

Lightning swims down to the fray below, stopping by Nightstorm, and laying a hand on the struggling swimmer. "Perhaps this might help," as an aura of energy spreads from his hand through the human ninja, giving the man a slight boost of inspiration.

ooc: Casting Guidance on Nightstorm with the ring of allies between him and the creature.

Kalir paces up and down the reef looking for a shot at the crab. However, his companions have got it surrounded and he can't get his shot off without risking hitting one of the good guys.

Kolto continues to maneuver gracefully in the salty water, looking for a good opening. This time, he manages to drive home a solid blow.

Water churns and froths around Tara's hands as she grits her teeth and maintains the strange, unsettling power that she has in them. She pauses for a moment, waiting for an opening, then darts forward...reaching out to slap her palm against cold scaly skin!

(Dehydrating touch thingus again!)

Combat Over - and everyone's alive.

Kolto finds a soft spot as Tara moves in with her lethal touch. But the death of the creature isn't the end of it's body spasms before falling still and starting to float to the ocean's surface. As it thrashes about, one of it's barbs from a claw buries itself deep into the leg of Nightstorm.(HP:02/10)

OOC: Rolling what I forgot with the first creature.

As the group gathers in the knee deep water once more Sandara looks over at the two floating bodies. "You know Mr. Plugg said the captain wanted something other than chicken and fish to eat. What do you think?"

Kaodi · Oct 31, 2012

Nightstorm swims back to the shallowest part of the reef so that he can get a good look at the damage. "Close enough," he says through gritted teeth as he tries to extricate the barb from his leg.

"Whatever we are doing, we better do it quick. I do not fancy just waiting around and bleeding all over. That is just an invitation to any passing shark," says the ninja. "But seeing as we have dealt with these two creatures, maybe our sea-blessed friend Lightning here can drag Kalir along and they can take a quick look inside that ship. I cannot imagine those things would have permitted anything else to live amongst them."

sunshadow21 · Oct 31, 2012

"I think seeing their faces when they ask what we brought them would be priceless. I can provide myself and one other person with a very short bubble of air to explore the ship, but it'll only last a minute, so I would suggest someone strong who can carry a fair bit."

Kaodi · Oct 31, 2012

"Kolto is probably your best bet then," says Nightstorm, gesturing towards the red sorcerer. "I was thinking of volunteering for the trip myself before we were attacked, but that beast got me pretty good. And I think they had some sort of poison too, because I am not feeling my best."
