The whirlwind moves frenetically, mowing down the crew members one by one – where they were standing is vacant after the wind moves past. One second, the cyclone is on the front bow, the next moment, it has raced the length of the ship and engulfed half of the crew, and has run past several of the newcomers. The three heroes on the starboard side of the ship quickly take cover from the whirlwind and are spared the ill effects. (Aeranduil, Ipshivi, and Sanne all made their reflex saving throw). The other elemental forms a fist made of swirling winds and strikes out at the shifter druid, taking advantage of its long reach and catching her across the face, sending her reeling. Once past the whirlwind, the elf mutters [COLOR=SeaGreen]"Shael air val air vys,"[/COLOR] quietly in elven at the sight of the elementals on deck. The elf continues moving to make room for the others behind, firing off a single arrow at the remaining elemental on the foredeck. Meanwhile the battle in the stern part of the ship rages, Dalwir, realizing that his dagger is having no effect on the creature, switches to attacking with his flaming rapier, hitting once. The elemental responds by lashing out a tendril of storm and creating a laceration across his shoulder. The small gnome moves up to the ships railing and defiantly crosses his clangs his blades together in an “X” formation, attempting to get the elementals attention. Without notice, the small halfling retreats invisibly back down the stairs into the main cabin, believing that discretion is the better part of valor. Back on the stern of the ship, the Lieutenant, a half-elf female named Osolda, furrows her brow as she sees half of the crew engulfed in the monstrous elemental – its coloration starting to take on red tinges from the blood of her men. She retreats backwards cautiously from the towering elemental before her, after fruitlessly striking it with her rapier. In true heroic fashion, the scion of Lyrander infuses her weapon with energies so that it is the bane of these creatures. She strides cautiously out onto the foredeck and prepares to defend her houses ship against these horrendous beasts. Entering the scene somewhat late, but well prepared, the half-orc strides up the last steps onto the deck, now brandishing an imposing looking quarterstaff. His eyes beholding the elemental hovering off of the ship to his left. Her concentration jarred by the blow from the elemental, Morika is able to regain focus and finish her spell, causing small batlike wings to sprout from her back, although they do not look strong or big enough to actually allow her to fly.
