[QUOTE="jkason, post: 5706965, member: 2710"] Anna's magical bolts strike home, and the only remaining coherent halfling falls to the deck. His still-senseless companion grunts in confusion as the other magical bolt flies into him. While the roiling of the ship makes aiming more difficult, and Quioan is sure one of the other halflings would have managed to avoid his shots, the victim of Anna's beguiling spellcraft isn't in a position to see or respond to anything, and both arrows thunk home in his chest. He's barely the time to gasp, sucking in a gurgling breath, when Drev's wooden fist crumples his skull as if it were no more than a paper lantern. The pirate falls, his lifeblood already a large pool on the deck of The Downpour. [color=olive]"Hooray for hero doings!"[/color] Nevil cries, popping up from below decks just as the final assailant falls. [color=purple]"Hooray for doing your bloody job and taking that bucket of bolt's sail down so we can get ourselves righted, you spineless git!"[/color] Captain Renlow calls from the wheel, where he's still struggling to keep the ship on an even keel. Nevil hops to, bounding to the enemy vessel furling it's sail. The dwarven sailor sighs in relief. [gm]Actually, Qik, between dropping its shield from stunning, losing its Dex mod, and taking the additional -2 from the stunned condition, the halfling's AC was only 11. I didn't bother rolling damage, though, because that one is very, very dead. Not so much Halfling Luck for that poor pirate, it appears. ;) Defeated Pirate goodness = 400 XP for each of you. At least one of the halflings is currently stable. Two others Aren't Quite Dead Yet, though they continue to fail self-stabilize checks.

Halfling C: -3 HP (Stable, Unconscious) Halfling D: -6 HP (Dying) HP: Drev: 9/29 Quioan: 19/24 Yoshiki: 15/22 Elenka: 15/23[/gm] [/QUOTE]
