[LPF] Distant Relations

[sblock=OOC]Two minor things:
Initiative should be Quioan, the eel, everyone (including Quioan), the eel, etc. Look at that first action by Quioan as the surprise round. After that Quioan acts on the party initiative with everyone else.

Geography: it's all upstream from Venza.[/sblock]

Blargh. Edited round order, and removed mention of the direction of flow. I've decided I will be steadfastly ignoring the bad logistical choices involved in sail-propulsion upstream. Am bum-savingly declaring that Renlow is Just That Good, lol.

Thanks for helping out, GE. Someday I'll get this stuff right. ;)[/sblock]
 

In a flash, Quioan reaches for his bow, glad that he had kept it on hand. As he does so, he shouts, "The creature's tail is electric - avoid it if you can!" As he speaks, he narrows his eyes, focuses in on his target, and then lets an arrow fly; even as it leaves his hand, the elf smiles, confident that it flies true.

OOC: Let's hope I didn't use up all my good rolls in one go. ;)

Also, I just wanted to mention that I'm hoping to have Quioan work on learning a few spells from scrolls on this journey, so that's what I have planned.

The eel rears up, mouth open and hissing, but before it can even think abou moving, Quioan's arrow flies into its maw. The force of the missle carries the eel to the fore of the ship, impaling it to the deck. It twitches once, then goes limp, the buzzing it created gone.

"Now *that* is why I don't mind having your type around!" Renlow calls from the wheel, beaming. "Well done, boy. And something exotic for dinner, eh?"

A series of loud elven expletives rises up from the stair-ladder, followed quickly by Nevil.

"Fixemup! Fixemup!" the half elf calls out, stabbing at his hands with a plain-looking stick. You can see now that they are, indeed, scalded by the electric charge channelled through him by the eel.

"What are you on about, Nevil?" the captain asks.

"Is wood magic!" Nevil insists, holding up the stick. "No, magic wood!" he corrects himself, then swears again. "Is knowing word from shaman who is giving to Nevilantura when he is leaving home, but is magics that will not work for Nevilantura, even when hands is burned by water devil! Is wondering maybe shaman tricks Nevilantura."
 

GM: So, with that anticlimactic but rather in-character-for-me battle (some day I'll make it past 3 rounds in a combat... :p), 150 xp to each of you. Welcome to level 3, Quioan, now go get your sheet fixed up and approved. ;)
 

OOC: Hah! I know one day you're going to wreak your revenge, jk; I just hope Q's sniping from a safe location when you begin to do so. :)

Looking forward to updating to level 3; it's actually a big one for the build, mechanically speaking, since I get both the lvl 3 feat and the lvl 2 ranger feat. Rapid shot here I come!

And thanks for the level-raising encounter, jk.
 

Yoshiki Akita (Human Monk 3)

Before he even starts shifting his weight to charge the creature, his new elven comrade as already fallen the sea beast. A broad smile forms across his face. "Impressive my friend. I'm definitely glad I on the same team as you. My confidence in our success has greatly increased today."

Quioan shouldered his bow, smiling at both the dwarf's enthusiasm as well as Yoshiki's compliment. "Well, they're not all going to be like that, I'm afraid, but it's a nice feeling when it does happen. After almost a hundred and twenty years of practice, I should be able to properly slay a seabeast," he adds in Elenka's direction. Turning to Renlow, he adds, "So you know how to cook that thing? Never had eel before." He looks a bit dubious, but willing to have a go.
 

Elenka has barely figured out what is going on and then it is over. Her mouth gapes in surprise then she smiles and claps.

"Bravo! Well done, Quioan!"

While Elenka is gazing admiringly at the elf Drevezh'korol has heard the cries of Nevilantura and gone to aid the half-elf. Drevezh'korol gently takes Nevil's hands to examine them: compared to the wood spirit's hands Nevil's looks like a baby's. Drevezh'korol clenches his fist and a drop of sap drips into the half-elf's hands and Drevezh'korol gently rubs it into his skin.

"Anna, you are a sorcerer, are you not? Check out this stick; Nevilantura says it holds some magic. Maybe it can help him. My skill at healing is rudimentary at best..."

Drevezh'korol scowls when he realizes his ministrations are not helping Nevilantura.

Anna cocks an eyebrow at Quloan as he drops the eel in a single shot.

"Very impressive. Remind me to stay on your good side.... she says with a smirk.

At Drev's query, Anna walks over and takes the wand in her hand.

"I prefer the term Sorceress, but yes. Let me see what I can make of this..."

Her eyes flare as she whispers something indiscernible. The glow fades to a burnished auburn as her spell takes hold, rendering the magics visible to her. She looks first at Drevezh'korol, smiling slightly at his glowing aura before turning her attention to the wand. She begins to study the wand intently, turning it this way and that, watching for slight shifts in the items magical ley lines that may divine it's purpose.

OOC: Taking ten for a total of 18 on spellcraft to identify the wand. That should work unless it's over caster level 3.
