Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

[Scotley]

OOC: I need initiative even for those not in the water.

Gnurl Whiskerling

Initiative: 11 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1449759/

Gnurl ignores those trying to rescue his dumb butt for the moment, and instead, casts Summon Monster III.

Spellcraft check for casting while bobbing: 35 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1449763/

THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A CONCENTRATION CHECK, IN WHICH CASE IT'S ONLY A 34. SORRY!

Gnurl summons a small water elemental, which will be in contact with Gnurl as soon as it appears, so it will not be hampered by Gnurl's invisibility. Since Gnurl is already invisible, the fact that he is riding along in the middle of a "pool" of water elemental should (he hopes) keep him safe from the zombie sharks and other nasties. It is Gnurl's intention to have it carry him to the surface so he can breathe (or, more accurately, prevent him from sinking since he's already at the surface), and then swim him over to the 'Sheet and deposit him on deck, however, this is not possible since the 'Sheet has moved away. As soon as Gnurl sees that it is not where it was before, he'll direct the elemental to place him on the drydock in a safe place near his companions.

H'Roosh

When he hears the others enter the water, H'Roosh surfaces from his search for Gnurl.

"Back to the docks! Quickly, now! I'll hold them off while you climb out!"

H'Roosh prepares himself for combat with the Zombie Sharks as he remains in the water to protect the others while they climb out.

Gnurl summons 3 small water elementals. He has one of them carry him to the surface so he can breathe (or, more accurately, prevent him from sinking since he's already at the surface), and then swim him over to the 'Sheet and deposit him on deck. The other two small elementals are to guard Gnurl and Elemental #1 from the zombie sharks and all other dangerous beasties, and prevent any monsters from interfering.

OOC: Do you want to go all the way to the Rumpled Bedsheet, which is currently pursuing the Ice Ship at full sail? I don't think you'll have the duration or speed to catch them. Was your intention to get back on the drydock?

Gnurl Whiskerling, wet, bedraggled gnome

I have edited the previous post for Gnurl to take the absence of the 'Sheet into account. Bummer, eh?

OOC: You're either going to have to let us escape soon, or else kill us off! Gnurl's fixing to run out of spells!! Gnurl, the Illusionist, may actually have to cast a few illusions. (Provided, that is, that we have opponents who aren't UNDEAD, and thus immune to them!)

OOC: Gnurl's spellcraft check a while ago should have been a concentration check, which makes the result only 34 not 35. Sorry, see revised post 2132.

Mingo Frasse (HP39/76 AC26) Anson (HP56/63 AC23*) Mig (HP30/35 AC19)

Mingo drops the rope to Anson as he surfaces. Mingo then looks for Geoffrey and Gnurl in the water.

Anson reaches the surface of the water, sees the rope from Mingo and climbs up to Mig, who helps by slowly backing away from the opening in the deck.

OOC: Hey, I seem to remember an Illusion taking out the toughest foe in that last fight. There were two other foes that were also subject to Illusions had Mingo not stoned them to death before you got around to casting at them. Sadly for you the biggest baddest foe of the place is an undead. Anyway, this little adventure only has two more encounters. Maybe you'll manage to hang on until then? That is after the zombie sharks of course.

H'Roosh 20
Geoffrey 20
Marienna 12
Gnurl 11
Mingo 5
Anson 5
Radoon 4
Mig 4
Zombie Sharks 4

H'Roosh moves to intercept the sharks, Geoffrey manages to get a hand on Marienna's whip and soon with Radoon's help he is back on the drydock. Gnurl begins casting his summoning. (the elemental will not arrive until next round.) Mingo and Mig pull Anson up as well. A pair of sharks move in on H'Roosh and another pair are searching for the invisible Gnurl, but sharks aren't really visual predators and they are coming toward him, though neither manages to find him and one decides to chomp at Geoffrey just missing him as he is pulled up.

OOC: I need an attack from H'Roosh before I can finish the round and give the rest of you a chance.

OOC: Yeah, ok, phantasmal killer is an illusion. But I was actually thinking about major image and the more free-form illusions that require more thought and creativity on my part. I'm doing my best to hang on! It'd be easier to hang on if you would quit stepping on my fingers, though! It's a long way down to the bottom of this cliff!
