Iffy fires off two Scorching Rays at the Kraken this time, the great gouts of flame leaping from the Gnome's hands and steaming mostly off into the ocean.
One of the rays strikes the kraken, the other fizzles out during a particularly large spray of water.
"Wow, I was hoping to get a little more of that on 'im! That just stinks."[/QUOTE]
Despite the crushing tentacles, the wizard manages to get a hand free and make the necessary arcane passes. Getting enough air into his lungs to say the words of power is an even greater challenge, but finally he succeeds and completes one of his more powerful spells. His skin hardens providing some relief from the crushing strength of the Kraken. The ring on his finger flashes and his wounds are diminished further.
Baelor yanks his shield back out of the grasp of the massive tentacles.
"Back t' the depths with you, beast!" he shouts, and continues hacking at the kraken with
Korralux, electrical sparks arcing from the blade of the axe.
Shifting his grasp on
Death's Edge to a one handed grip, Mourn scrambles to grip the holy symbol on its chain at his throat and present it to sight.
"Cúlú éag!" His strong tenor voice rings out over the ships deck and a wave of comfort and healing rolls forth, balm to the wounds of his friends and allies.
Vernon moves to get in a better position to aid his wizardly ally, stowing his bow and drawing forth the large blade as he moves.
Hovering above the fray, Maighan's ephemeral form gestures at the waters below and she speaks breathy words in the unspeakably ancient Druidic tongue. The water where she points begins to blurp up with bubbles, then to churn...then to froth.
The human buccaneers struggle useless against the giant tentacles and are squeezed hard. Captain Morgan fires another ballista shot into the creature, this time hitting it square.
Sia also struggles against the tentacles but is unable to wriggle out.
The tentacles continue to squeeze those in their clutches, but Rych is mostly protected thanks to his stoneskin spell. Sia is actually pulled from her feet and dragged into the water towards the awaiting mouth of the kraken, it chomps down on her leg with a resounding crunch, the waters turning red around the beast. Vernon is just able to jump over a swinging tentacle, but Baelor is now the object of the creatures anger, two of its appendages wrap around the dwarf, squeezing him hard.
