Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

Rook

Ever the opportunist, Rook slashes swiftly with Drachthuarach, but the slippery shaman moves too quickly for him and the backhanded attack goes wide.

The shaman having thwarted death for the moment is out of sight. Rook can just hear the sound of incantations from below the bar. A small bag of powder strikes a lamp behind the bar...

OOC: Finn roll a d4 to see if you can manage to break the lamp with the small soft bag.
 


Boom!

The lamp fractures and the bag bursts and it appears at least some of the powder got in for there is a slightly delayed blast. Several nearby bottles burst and add to the fire behind the bar. The nearby Ogre is doused with flames and flying glass and the crossbowman who pulled the shaman to safety and backed up goes down peppered with glass and burning, the foul stench of burning flesh overwhealming the more pleasant aromas of burning rum and brandy. The next crossbowman in line is also blasted and singed, but not out of the fight yet. The three blades thrown by Radoon form a neat line, one going right, one hitting him in the chest and the third going off to the left. The big humanoid totters for a moment, falls to his knees and pitches forward on the floor. The warriors attack (1d20+4=21, 1d20+4=18, 1d20+4=15) Rook, Radoon and Morwyn though only Radoon is struck with a trident (2d4+1=7). Marienna extends a hand and touches Radoon. He feels the pleasant jolt of her healing magic (2d8+7=16). The ogre in the corner bashes (1d20+8=15) at Morwyn, but misses narrowly. The ogre behind the bar roars in rage and frustration and along with his fellow both lob (1d20+5=7, 1d20+5=21) massive javelins at Rook, and while one passes dangerously close neither hits.

OOC: Okay Rook...
 

Radoon - Mariner/Fighter/Master Thrower

OCC - Wow Radoon is taking a beating this fight.

Looking back at M., he will give a heart felt "thanks!" But that is all the niceties he has. He is PISSED that the capt wanted to fight and even more pissed that he is getting battered so.. He will draw his last two daggers and charge to the trident weilding warrior, burying his one dagger at the end of his stride.
 

Rook

Rook makes a lunging grab for the bastard sword in the greedy grasp of Warrior 1, attempting to disarm (1d20+5=21) him and take the weapon for himself.

OOC:

Scott, this is an unarmed disarm attempt (left the Northern Knife in stinky shaman's back, remember?). I wasn't sure if Rook gets the flanking bonus or not - if he does get a flanking bonus the roll becomes a 23. I also didn't subtract the 4 for being unarmed (makes Rook's roll either a 17 or a 19). I do realize that dude gets an attack of opportunity which spoils the attempt if he succeeds.

Not a great chance of success, but it looks cool as heck if he pulls it off!
 

Rook makes a lunging grab for the Bastard Sword in the warrior's hands, his response (1d20+4=16) is to swing unsuccessfully at Rook. The two men struggle with the blade (1d20+8=25); however, the warrior's double handed grip allows him to retain the weapon. A couple of crossbow bolts (1d20+3=15, 1d20+3=12) zing through the battle from behind the bar, but no one is hit. The Fairy clad women attack (1d20+3=12, 1d20+3=22, 1d20+3=6) and Finn is struck (1d4+1=3) , but not critically (1d20+3=7). Captain DeGrasse is busy reloading.
