OOC: Re-roll critted. Sardna is in the water, and enemies repositioned to end grab. Prior post edited. Anything else?

OOC: Yes, Hastings should have taken 10 more damage (5 from each warlord).

 

[Iron Sky]

HAH, TRANSFORMING INTO A BAT? SIR EXSIXTEN NEEDS NO SUCH CHEAP TRICKS! AS FOR BECOMING A HYBRID, SIR EXSIXTEN'S SUPERIOR BREED CANNOT BEAR THE TOUCH OF LESSER-

With a sudden screech of tortured metal he transforms into this:

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA <ERROR: 'MWAHA SCRIPT STILL NOT RESPONDING, ABORT?>

CUR EXSIXTEN IS HERE TO MAKE YOU ALL HIS BITCHES! GET IT? IT'S A CANINE JOKE, MADE APROPOS BY MY CURRENT (BADASS) FORM.

He leaps forward and tears into Glugyug, Dak, and Hastings.

CORRECTION: UPON REFLECTION, A BAD ASS WOULD BE AN INFERIOR VERSION OF AN ALREADY STERILE HYBRID EQUINE. MAKE THAT "MY CURRENT ROCKINSUPERCOOLAWESOMEWOLF FORM."

OOC: Thanks to all Dorn's sorcerations, don't even need to use Come and Get It this turn. Save it for when they get back on the boat. Summary: Sir Exsixten is in Q15 at 5+106/116 hp in wolf form. Dak, Glugyug, and Hastings each take 21 damage, are marked, and have -1 to AC(save ends)

[Dekana]

"Ahh! You're all monsters!" Uncle Jaz cries out upon seeing the canine and demon party members. But he has his own problems (like being set on fire), so he tries to refocus himself on the fighting.

The kobold scurries back to the upper deck of the ship, turns, and looses a pair of crossbow bolts at the genasi in the water. It's a little difficult to see the effect of the attack through the water and the magical darkness, but the first bolt at least elicits a scream from the woman.

Uncle Jaz takes another look at Dorn flying menacingly in the air. He then retreats even further to the rear of the ship.

[sblock=Uncle Jaz actions]Start of turn: 10 fire damage from ongoing. Uncle Jaz is at 37/91.

Free: I'll take the 5 shift to U14.

Move: Trapmaker's Trick.

Free: Backstab #2 .

Standard: RBA vs Sardna hits AC 40 for 32 damage, and Sardna has -2 defenses TENT Uncle Jaz. (1d20+22+2+3-2=40; 1d8+8=14; 3d6=8; 2d6=10)

AP-Standard: RBA vs Sardna misses AC 27, but Uncle Jaz still regains 13 hp from the WL bonus and makes a save at +5, which succeeds. He's at 50/91. (Atk: 1d20+22+2+2-2=27, Save: 1d20+5=19)
--Skirmishing Presence: Shift to Z15.[/sblock]

 

[TwoHeadsBarking]

OOC: Dorn's Lightning Surge should have done 5 more damage to Hastings and Exsixten's attack should have done 10 more.

 

[Luinnar]

GM: Just waiting to see what the werehobgoblin does

 

[covaithe]

Seeing Dorn wind up for a magical burst, Quagmire uses Andras' distraction to dart behind one of the port side cannons. "I wonder if there be sharks in these waters," he bellows, seeing several foes go overboard. "Let's find out!" With a grotesque popping sound of strained and twisted cartilage, he transforms into a hybrid shark/hobgoblin monster. He quickly stabs down into the prone kobold foe, chanting a battle cry, then leaps into the water. His sharklike form disappears cleanly beneath the waves, but a cry of pain from Hastings a moment later reveals his position.

[sblock=actions]
On Andras' turn: shift to P14 from Reorient the Axis
Minor: soul of the shark, transform in to shark hybrid.
Standard: Stand the fallen vs. Dak, 31 vs. AC hits for 27 damage, and allies within 5 can spend a surge and heal surge+7.
Move: Jump in the water, to N13. Maybe down a bit; see next lines.
AP: Ok, here's what I want to do: grab Hastings and pull him under water, preferably with my teeth as part of a bite attack. I can breathe and have a swim speed, as well as functioning arms and such; hopefully that will give him some nice meaty penalties in the water. (Is it clear water, or murky? I.e. does it provide concealment or cover or anything? Also, are there actual sharks around?) Failing that, I'll just bite him and try to keep him from climbing back in the boat. Here's a bite attack:
Hits 34 AC for 24 dmg. From using an AP near Andras, I get to shift 5 before or after. If I'm allowed to grab him, I want to go straight down with that. If not allowed, or if that doesn't work, I'll shift around to the north side of him, like L13.[/sblock]

[Luinnar]

@Iron Sky Your wolf form makes you lose you shield bonus to AC, did you still want to use it or would you want to use your more powerful hybrid form which allows you to keep your shield? (as well as give you +2 power bonus to speed and damage and 6 regenerate when not bloodied).


[sblock=Dm notes please ignore]

GM: All allies gain +3 to hit for one turn from Dorn. Only works once I'll say anything underwater is heavily obscured. No sharks.. yet at least.

GM: All allies gain +3 to hit for one turn from Dorn. Only works once I'll say anything underwater is heavily obscured and it does not effect Quagmire. No sharks.. yet at least.

they say i am batty, but i disagree. Count TenSixEx says, turning into a bat and flying towards the other side of the deck. male genasi warlord are you related to female genasi death domain cleric? because if your not- hey get back here! he shouts trying to slash Andras as Sir ExSixTen rushes in to defend and gets hit instead.

male warforged fighter let me sire you. you will become hybrid gangrel|fighter and join the masquerade! it gives good benefits like 401K and an extended lifetime plan! the Warforged says.

LESS TALKING, MORE FIGHTING! Hasting yells.

I spit on your questionable heritage Hobgoblin! Hasting says distracting Quagmire, rushing in and stabing Quagmire with his rapier striking a vital organ, then following up with an attack with his main-gauche. He attacks again, but fails to penetrate Quagmire's armor.

Heheheh...Boom, boom! Dorm Wellington shouts, summoning up a giant fireball and flinging it at the party, lighting Jax, Dorn and Uncle Jax on fire, but failing to effect Andras.

Heal bosssss mannn! The Goblyn says, summoning up magic from the dark powers of Ravenloft to heal Hastings.

Eat tasty kobold! he shouts attacking Uncle Jax with his double axe and biting onto him with his teeth.

Ahh! Get this thing off me! Uncle Jax cries trying to shake Glugyug off.

Ummm...take this! Cousin Dak says, stealthy moving over next to Uncle Jaz and throwing dirt in the party's eyes. Only Jax fails to close his eyes in time.

Oh-oh that did not work out well...

You are going to need more healing than that sweety. Sardna says, healing the rest of Hasting's wounds with her powers.

Your magic is nothing compared to mine! Darkness come to me! the female fire Genasi shouts at Dorn, summoning a shadowy aura around her and blocking out most of the enemies from view.

[sblock=Terrain]
The barrels, cannons, boxes etc. are difficult terrain.

The party is currently on the upper level, they can go down the stairs or just off the bannister to reach the lower level. Climbing up to the upper level without using the stairs requires a DC 18 athletics check.

Characters can be pushed off in the water but get a save. You can use ropes on the ship to climb back up out of the water, this requires no check but takes a full move action.

The round wooden things is the mast, You can pass through but not end your turn in the square.
