D&D 5E Storm King's Thunder

[Neurotic]

Ordrar looks over the side to see the effect of the Drens attack. Seeing both the ship and his friend targeted he makes a hard decision and waits to see the effect of Drens spell ("since when can he cast?!") he wonders, but leaves it for later. After all, he doesn't look like a caster and casts. If anything, the monk with his robes looks more like a wizard than Ordrar does.

He tries to target (such as is possible with such an imprecise spell) the bow itself rather than the body of the great engine.

OOC: he will too cast shatter either on the one targeting the ship or, if it is destroyed the one targeting Dren
Any creature (such as the operator) also takes damage (half on CON save DC 13)
Shatter: 3D8 = [1, 7, 5] = 13
@KahlessNestor, I think you're confusing your DnDs Shatter doesn't grant any save to objects, but does not do double damage.

Aremus: Please roll perception!

Shatter Attacks: Both dwarves are successful with their magical attacks. The remaining two ballista operators ( rolls of 6 and 8) are launched from the crows nest. There are no remaining threats on the top level of the vessel, but there are plenty of angry sailors below.

OOC: Perception Check: 1D20+3 = [15]+3 = 18

Dren cracked his knuckles, seeing the ballistas had been taken out of commission.

“Noo time f’r some sailors t’ gae f’r a swim,” he muttered. “Let’s get tha’ giant free!” he called across the ship to Ordrar before heading down deeper into the ship’s hold, heading for the nearest set of chains.

Tranio laughs as he sees Dren leap over the edge. "Good for you!" he shouts as his colleague drops from sight. So much for Bless, he things, and draws his sword.

Looking over the edge, he spies some crewmenbers and points his short sword at them, as a chilling beam of necrotic energy bursts from it at first one, then another.

OOC: Chill Touch: : if there are two crew members within 5' of each other, near the ballistas, that's his first target. If not, then anywhere on the forecastle, aftcastle, or crows nest. He doesn't want to target the general crew, only officers or gunners. If there aren't two with in 5', then just one of the gunners. To hit: 1d20+8=21. If a hit, damage = 2d8=13 necrotic, no resistance. Range 120' If there is a second target 1d20+8=16. If a hit, damage = 2d8=9 necrotic, no resistance.

Aremus: You would determine that part of the "Squid head" of the ship would be the most secure part to launch the anchor into.

Tranio: There is a combatant in the crows nest that you can take care of with the chill touch. All of the ballistas have been unmanned.

Dren: Are you jumping down deeper into the ship or climbing?

Tranio: There is a combatant in the crows nest that you can take care of with the chill touch. All of the ballistas have been unmanned.

Done!

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Aremus threw the anchor around a tentacle-like protrusion on the squid-shaped ship and slid down the cable. He immediately headed to meet up with Dren so that they could rescue the Giant King.

 

[KahlessNestor]

Dren will jump down deeper into the ship. His Slow Fall should protect him from damage.

 

[seriousmoonlight]

Aremus & Dren: As you slide (or float) down towards the imprisoned giant, a few things become evident. The Storm King appears to be frozen in times, unblinking eyes gazing towards the heavens. The giant sized chains that hold him in place also glow green. Two kraken thugs stand on either side of his head. They draw their scimitars as you get closer and scream out for others to join them in battle.
