Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

Dropping the Blunderbus, Annora attacks with her dagger once again, but fails to hit. Finn, still stunned from the Monk's kick, takes no action. A shadowy image enters the room and moves straight at Gold Tooth. He looks up at the vague figure and screams like a little girl, a look of abject terror on his face. (Will Save (1d20+5=15)). The thing moves in and reachs for him. As it touches him, his eyes roll back in his head and he collapses with a rictus of terror on his lips. (Fort Save (1d20+8=11)) Marienna starts moving toward Rook's body. Her blade flashes and inflicts a minor cut on the tattooed monk. "You'll not escape me this time, Krûpe! I've been waiting a long time for this!" A tall man with pale green skin and long dark green hair flows into the room through the 'new window,' tattoos rippling across his muscular chest and arms. He slips effortlessly around the tables and the bodies of the fallen and just as he comes to a stop in front of the pirate monk he lashes out with an elbow, putting his entire body and momentum into the blow. The Monk is staggered by the blow and falls in a heap. As he drops he makes a sound like crashing surf as he says "H'Roosh?" Radoon finds that there is no enemy left in this fight.

The King is dead, long live the King...

The newcommer steps aside so that Marienna can attend to Rook. She looks up with tears in her eyes, "He's dead." A check reveals that all the pirates are dead. The bard recovers from Gnurl's spell and quietly returns to his drinking. Annora turns to Finn and says, "If this is what you do for a second date, I'm not sure I can survive a third." She reaches behind the bar for a bottle and takes a pull before passing it to Finn. It proves to be fairly decent brandy.

OOC: Well, with that Spellcraft skill check, I should know that, right? Unfortunately, I didn't know Marienna's class. I presume that the bard was just fascinated by my rainbow pattern?

Gnurl goes over to apologize to the bard, and buy him a drink. Gnurl says, "Sorry about my confusion, but I wasn't sure who these pirates were friends with, and I certainly wasn't sure that we could defeat them if another spellcaster was on their side. I hope you can forgive me." :)

OOC: Actually, I'd like to strike up a friendship with this bard. What's campaign policy on henchmen for pcs?

Sipping his fresh drink the fellow laughs it off, "Think nothing of it. It just looked like such a fine fight I was inspired to song." He's obviously quite drunk.

Gnurl calls for more fine whiskey and says "Excellent! Sing me a song now, then?"
 

OOC: I previously asked whether this bard might be henchman material, but if he's that much of a sot, then Gnurl will have to wait and see him sober at least a few times before he would even consider taking on any degree of responsibility for the dude! Gnurl may be a gnome with all the propensity for humor that his race entails, but he's probably one of the most serious-minded gnomes around, and his tolerance for b.s. is extremely low.
