[QUOTE="SelcSilverhand, post: 3909501, member: 30016"] The sound of steel striking steel rings across the deck as the sailors and pirates begin trading blows. Midian completes his spell and watches as thousands of tiny spiders seemingly crawl out of cracks in the wood and out from under ropes and barrels. They swarm all over the two men holding the heavy rope. The bare chested warrior who threw the grappling hook swats ineffectively at the biting insects. He draws his scimitar and bellows as he prepares to leap over the railing onto your ship. He is struck while balancing on the rail by Whispers bolts of energy and he topples overboard. Midian raises his shortbow and sights in a pirate on the upper deck across from him and puts an arrow into his stomach. The second pirate who tied off the line to the mast retches and shrieks in an un-manly way as the spiders crawl up and over his face. He moves unsteadily across the deck towards the opposite side trying to escape the swarm. Seria's quarrel strikes his leg, slowing his retreat. The sailors have their hands full trying to hold back the pirates leaping aboard. The first set of pirates move away from the railing, allowing two of their comrades to make the crossing. The last grappler hurls his hook across and hooks onto the railing of your ship. He shouts triumphantly and begins tying the line to a ring set in the deck. The pirate Midian hit staggers for a moment, gripping the arrow with one hand and pulling it free. He then picks up a short spear and hurls it across the short distance between the ships.
