Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

Gnurl Whiskerling, gnome illusionist AC17, 57hp

Gnurl welcomes "Torrent" the water elemental to the Prime Material Plane, and offers himself into the elemental's bosom for transport to a safe place on the drydock near Anson.

Map

OOC: Here is a current map. H'Roosh is now beset by 3 zombie sharks, while one still searches for Gnurl. The water elemental will appear on Gnurl's turn and lift him from the water. The octagon shows the acid damaged area.

Potintial places for undead or Allois to be include the two big ships on the dry dock, the sleek yacht, the area covered by a tarp, and the building. The small boat is open and unlikely to hide much.

The sounds of combat from the Radiant Sun have died down.

Radoon

Radoon will help H'Roosh from the water and if the opportunity presents itself he will stab at the sharks from his position on the dock.
 

H'Roosh

As soon as he's sure his friends are clear of the water, H'Roosh will make best speed [OOC: Is there a 'defensive swimming retreat' maneuver? If so, he'll use it to avoid AoOs] to the nearest helping hand and climb to the docks.
 

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

Mingo retreives her haversack and warsling from the saddle, while Anson dries his bowstring and arrows. Anson also holds the rope so it can be dropped to H'Roosh or Gnurl if they appear in the water next to the dock.

[sblock=OOC]
Any damaged arrows or is the bowstring ruined?

Gnurl Whiskerling, Gnome Wizards Kick A$$

When his new friend, Torrent places Gnurl back on the dock near Anson, Gnurl says, "Thank you my Dear! And may I say that you are looking absolutely ravishing! I'll bet those boy elementals just can't keep their waves off of you!" (You didn't think that a water elemental could blush, and you still wouldn't believe it if you weren't seeing it!) "Oh, and one more thing before you go, please, could you remove all of the water from my person, clothing, and equipment?" Gnurl steps to the edge of the dock, and Torrent rises up from the water next to him. It appears as if she is splashing herself onto Gnurl, but really, she is just getting microscopically close to Gnurl, so that the water that is on his person will adhere and cohere to her substance. In just a jiffy, Gnurl is bone dry. "Ahh, thank you my dear!" And, looking to his companions, "Is there anything else that we need Miss Torrent for, gentlemen, or may I dismiss her?"

A pause for breath

After giving the sharks a good bashing, H'Roosh manages to get back to the dock without feeding them. His trip up a proffered rope is much less flashy than Gnurl's method for regaining the dock. Marienna calls upon the magic of her healing staff and the acid burns on her hands and face fade to pink new skin. As Anson and Mingo ready missile weapons, Anson is pleased to note that his brief dip in the sea did not harm his weapons. After helping to pull the monk to the relative safety of the drydock, Geoffrey comments, "We can deal with the sharks later if that is acceptable."

OOC: Actions? Other than the sharks still circling below there are no obvious foes to be seen. As noted earlier there is no longer any sound of battle to be heard.
 


Gnurl Whiskerling, Gnome Wizard

Gnurl knows his spell is soon eo expire, anyway, so he turns to Torrent and says, "Thank you for your service, Madam Elemental, you are released!" He then turns to his friends and says, "So what's on the agenda now, Gents?"
