Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori gladly lets Evlar wrap his warmth about her... winter is indeed coming...
She will heat the room with a little magic but prefers her body heat to keep Evlar warm as she pulls him to her naked breast within the winter blankets of their bed... for one last night of tender love-making ashore. She sleeps ...eventually exhausted in his embrace... feeling truly content at being 'possessed' by another~ for once in her life.
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
As morning rises, Elvar takes you one final time, before you check out and make your way to the boat. Elvar is positively beaming as he heads back. The captain is quick to put Elvar to work loading up the last of their supplies. Phargas stands at the bow of, his clothes and body looking clean and refreshed. He leans lightly on his walking staff as he stares muttering lightly to himself.
A crew of what appears to be adventurers are loading several crates into the nobleman's room. You're quick to realize the door has been replaced to his room with a reinforced door with a thick, heavy lock. Captain Cormack is stationed behind the wheel supervising. What few belongings you left on the ship have been transferred to Elvar's room and the two of you are clearly intended to bunk together.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori is delighted with Evlar's morning 'wakeup'... she yeilds~ loudly, to him excited at the touch of his rough hands upon her body, and swoons to his warrior's strength holding her firmly as she melts in his embrace. Being taken again~ so early... leaves her breathless and causes her heart to race burning with passion at being possessed by the young warrior's desires stoked to a hungry inferno... but she knows deep within her trembling body that she too possesses him~ his heart like no other woman will!
Returning to the ship.. Sa'sori can't stop smiling either... her flesh a radiant-pallor of slight flush and a breathlessness to her. Her gaze distracted and satisfied she stands at the Captain's side somewhat in a daydream. But she catches the Captain's stern gaze and she blinks out of her afterglow to seriousness.
She quickly makes her way to the main deck blushing slightly to check the rigging and tops for making ready to set sail... adjusting line tautness, securing main-sail lines and coiling pull lines out of the way, eventually making her way to the prow of the ship and signaling back when all seems ship-shape to break dock at the Captain's order...
Profession{Sailor}: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori stands at her station awaiting the Captain's inspection.. eager to be underway. Red Wing is perched on her shoulder preening his feathers.
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
The captain makes her rounds without incident and you finally set sail drifting out until the city is just a dot on the horizon. You're routine is just like it was before, except for a much larger night crew taking over after your shift. Able and his newly stocked crew still take the time to eat with all of you, but after the shift change and dinner, the crew gets the ship travelling through the night as well.
Even with the new staff, you and Elvar are able to enjoy the privacy of a private room.
Phargas spends the morning and the evening on the bow of the ship. He does go below deck during the heat of the day. The friendly old man chats and strikes up conversations with the crew posted near him. Most of these conversations lead to that crewman telling stories about their lives that Phargas is enthralled to listen to.
Your other passenger remains in his room all day. Even when a meal is offered to him, he simply refuses the food and turns the crewman away without ever opening the door.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori attends to her assigned duties with the best of her effort. She will cheerfully chat with Phargas... but unlike the rest of the crew she will make an effort to reveal very little of her 'life's story'... mostly because its not been a very go one until now.. and she rather not dwell on her dark and troubled past.
She does heartily enjoy spending her time with Evlar... alone even if just gently holding hands together.
However, her curiosity cannot be quenched about the other passenger... On deck she will cast her Detect Magic aimed at the rigging and scanning the deck of the ship... before turning her gaze to the portion of the ship where the guest rooms are... knowing full well that the wooden decks do not measure three feet of solid wood.. so if there is magic in the guest cabins she will know it. She will not try to enter the room but if there is magic onboard the ship...let alone powerful magic.. she feels the captain should know about it and where it is!
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Phargas does push for you to tell more. He clearly loves hearing stories, but if you're not willing, he won't overly press you.
Your spell finds all the little auras of the various crewmate's equipment, but when it is pointed towards your guest's cabin, the spell's effect suddenly fizzles as though it were dispelled.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori nods knowingly... pondering.
{So I suspect it is some magic items that operates automatically.. as clearly there is no one here that could or would counterspell my magic... even if in the man's room they would have no idea I was casting a detection spell on the main deck... so whatever the enchantment is it works continually.}
Sa'sori dismisses from mind the random magic trinkets and pieces that the Crew has in possession, but wondered, {Why would someone not just have a non-detection spell or any number of other more simpler ways to hide the presence of magic rather than actively dispel any detection spell used? That's just ASKING those looking to look harder!}
But she let the matter rest trusting the Captain's judgement on the matter...
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Your shift goes by without incident and as dinner is served you get a chance to get a better look at your new cremates as the Captain goes about introducing them to everyone. Phargas you all on deck for dinner, quietly listening as he eats. When finished he thanks everyone for their hard work and sees himself off to bed.
The halfling is a talkative young man and seems knowledgeable of the sea trade. He shares various sea tales and you gain the impression he practically grew up on one boat or another.
The new human is quiet, with deep dark bags under his eyes. Clearly he is unaccustomed to sleeping through the day.
The half-elf is a fetching young lady with her dark hair tied in a bandanna. She has certainly caught the attention of most of the night shift men hoping to be paired with her.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori will talk often with the Halfling listening to his nautical tales and trying to learn from his experience to improve her own seamanship skills.
She is delighted to know another half-elf has joined the crew... and she practically drags Evlar with her to meet and great the dark-haird young woman interested in bonding on a personal level to learn of her life and share their own life experiences. Again insisting that 'Half-elves must stick together and look out for each other'. Sa'sori will offer to help her in any way she may need... to help make her life more enjoyable or fulfilling... hoping to gain her friendship!
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
The half-elf has a bright smile and a dark bandanna keeping her hair from her face. Bright hazel eyes, and a thin figure wrapped in form fitting leather armor. She will introduce herself as Ashlyne, and happily chats with you and Elvar. While she is friendly to both of you, her eyes and attention definitely focus on Elvar, who seems blissfully unaware of the attention he is receiving.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori smiles; deeply complemented by Ashlyn's interest in the terribly appealing Evlar... which she has not missed.
She had lived so long among the Calistrians that though she was certain she possessed Evlar's love.. she knew life was motion and change and she felt no jealousy for the very rare but sometimes favorable & memorable, 'clients' she serviced while a member of the church. Though she would probably never give voice to it.. she was in her heart a Calistrain and felt that people have many lusts and loves in their life, why should she want to possess someone's love exclusively? Did she not before ... before their abandonment, love Cotton, and Moira the same? Did she not in her heart of heart wonder how soft it would have been to kiss Vera's dark veridian lips... wonder how it would feel to hold Cotton in her arms tightly after pleasuring her into trembling fits, wonder how it would feel to hold Moira close to her bare breast feeling her heartbeat after some strenuous lovemaking taking in the warmth of her touch and fragrant smell of her red hair? Why should she now wish to put Evlar's heart in a cage of her affection?
Sa'sori knows Evlar is too innocent and ...heh 'orderly' to consider or even notice Ashlyn's attention, which Sa'sori finds terrible cute and amusing, wondering herself how soft and fragrant it would be to run her fingers through Ashlyn's dark hair. She does indeed admire Ashlyn's keen eye to notice ...such a fine catch of a young man as is Evlar, so she embraces Ashlyn's interest and friendship... wondering amusingly how long it will take Ashlyn to make a move on Evlar? Then she decides to test Ashlyn's discernment by subtly sending the message with her body language and her choice of words that she and Evlar are a couple... but she is distinctly NOT projecting any jealousy or possessiveness. Curious to see if Ashlyn will move on Evlar of her own or if she will ask Sa'sori about their relationship?
Bluff: 'Innuendo' 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Sa'sori... knows that most half-elves have such lonely lives... wholly not their fault.. and she knows how desperate she herself was to find love and affection! In good conscious how could she deny the lovely Ashlyn the chance at the same? Was she not worthy of the same hopes and dreams as she was? Would not any human lover only suffice for a short term... because half-elves live so long?
No. Sa'sori decided she would win Ashlyn's trust, friendship, and eventual affection.. and try very hard to communicate her wish to share the affection she and Evlar had found.. so Ashlyn would know.. no matter what happened in life.. she would have their affection as well! But Sa'sori carefully reminded herself she must go slow.. so as not to spook Ashlyn.. there where very few people She had learned she could trust.. and it came hard for half-elves...
She would have to closely watch Ashlyn to make sure she was not sending her the wrong message and perhaps find the time to have a heart-to-heart "girl-chat".
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
In conversation Sa'sori asked Ashlyn if she was trained to defend herself in battle? Or if she even possessed a weapon ... intimating her offer to help train her to fight and protect herself if she was unfamiliar with combat.. suggesting that perhaps Evlar a experienced fighter might be able to help as well... a sly smile hard to hide in her expression.
Outwardly Sa'sori to Ashlyn seems one of those people who is very 'touchy-feely'.. embracing Evlar {and clearly enjoying how he blushes when she does so} and Ashlyn in a friendly sisterly fashion. Very evident Sa'sori has highly developed social skills... and WANTS HER friendship!
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Ashlyn is hesitant at first at the touchiness, but quickly adapts, returning the friendly touch. She will inform you, that she has been trained and wistfully remarks on how she would like to train with you, but since you are on opposite shifts, it was unlikely to have time off together.
Catching your innuendo, she does ask how long you two have been a couple and subtly questions at the seriousness of your relationship.
Elvar has gotten accustomed to your public touch, while he does still blush, he happily keeps you close and lets his strong hand rest on your hip squeezing you in occasionally.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori smiles brightly, and informs her, "I'm sure if we were to speak to the Captain.. she would allow us time to train together between shifts, she and I also share a ..'bond' of past life experiences."
Sa'sori grins, "Oh... Evlar and I have been a couple for about two months or so. I've found the love I so desperately needed for such a long time in his arms... I know that for me, there has been no other man who has touched my heart with such tenderness and nobility. I know that he loves me.. and that is enough."
Then gently taking Ashlyn's hand in hers her voice becoming tender and full of empathy,"..but, I know how lonely the lives of half-elves can be..many of us are rejected by both human and elven cultures as... 'too outsider'. Know you Ashlyn..dear sister of our shared blood... I am not a jealous woman.. who would seek to claim Evlar's affections for only myself. Believe me.. I know how terrible a thing it is to be Owned by another.. and I'll have no part of inflicting such on ANYONE! Evlar has possession of my heart.. freely given to him.. and I his, but I would not put so wonderful and tender a young man's affections in a cage of my own selfishness. YOUR life.. and happiness are Important to me, just as the young man~ Evlar... who I found in a bar heartbroken, lost, and without a home or family to call his own. I claimed him as my family.. and then as my lover... just as now I would claim you dear Ashlyn as my sister. If your heart seeks affection and love.. how could I possibly deny you Evlar's if he was inclined to share his heart and affection with you? You need not ask me..for my permission.. the choice is Evlar's to make! I will still love Evlar and my bed be open to him regardless of what he chooses! I care about your well-being, your safety, your hopes and Your fears... and I want you to be happy!! If you are not happy.. then I am not happy, if you need love.. how could I deny it to you if it is freely offered?"
"We half-elves are looked up with mistrust and disgust by most, only wanted for others selfish desires or schemes.. but here.. with us.. Evlar and I~ I want you to know, you have family. WE will claim you as our sister and friend! When all others turn away, or die of old age.. you can always turn to us as your family and friends.. yes even lovers if that is what you need and you'll ALWAYS find home in our company!"
Sa'sori leans against Evlar's chest gently caressing his hand at her hip and batting her eyes at him, "He IS Dreamy isn't he?"
Then taking a mock serious tone her jest clear speaking to Evlar, "You just be certain to treat my dear sister Ashlyn well buster! Just as respectfully and tenderly as you are to me.. if you do choose to share your love with her!"
And then very tenderly she caresses his cheek she speaks so very softly and intimately to Evlar, "..and wonder not beloved, for me.. there is Only You! My first Love..."
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Ashlyn seems stunned by your openness. She had already begun to see you as a rival, but your proclamation has left her at a loss for words.
Elvar on the other hand just seems confused. He leans in whispering, "Sa'sori, I love you, no one else."
Ashlyn finally finds her words and with a gentle laugh, finally says "You're an odd one. Sorry, I just met your boy, and while he definitely looks like a fun time. I'm here to travel the world not find a man."
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori turns to Evlar her expression one of pure adoration, "I'm ... so very happy to hear you say that beloved! I.. just didn't want you to think ...I was being possessive.. like I owned you or.. something. You're your OWN~ wonderful man.. the man I love!"
Sa'sori chuckles at Ashlyn's confusion, "Serving in the Temple of CALISTRA does that to you, the less you know the better. I want no misunderstandings or unfriendliness between us... there are more than enough in the world that will have ONLY that for our kind. So you've come to the right place Ashlyn! Cause traveling the world is what we're doing!"
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Ashlyn raises an eyebrow suspiciously eyeing Elvar. "To tame a Calistran temple girl, you must be some lover." There is certainly a hint of jealousy in her voice as she speaks, before sighing and standing back up dusting a few breadcrumbs from her lap. "Oh well, time to get to work."
Elvar on the other hand just blushes and seems flabbergasted. This is now the second woman who he considers well out of his league to flatly tell him how much they want to bed him. While boosting his confidence, he is still astonished.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori just cuddles a little closer to Evlar and whipsers, "...its your honest, forthright and heroic heart, beloved~ THAT makes you ... irresistible!"
To Ashlyn she says palyfully, "I'll talk to the Captain see if you and I can get some training exercise together... for now.. you shall be the ship's Mistress of the Night, and I the Siren of the Day!" {wink}
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori's delicate pointed ears straighten and her toes curl at the sudden passion in Evlar... sighing softly she practically melts in his arms. She needs NO further encouragement to retire to their cabin.. for a ... long night!
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Elvar, clearly excited by the sudden attention, attacks you with a fervor as soon as you're behind closed doors. Your training clearly has had an impact on him. He aptly play's your body like a fine tuned well practiced instrument, making you sing with every move and motion. Pressing and teasing your most sensitive spots. His enthusiasm isn't short lived either, as he keeps pushing you well into the night, longer than he has ever been able to go.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori is overwhelmed with pleasure! Clearly Evlar is a fast learner... when he violates her navel with his insistent tongue, or suckles slowly and suggestively at her long sensitive pointed ear tips; little techniques she has used upon him to drive him delirious with pleasure~ which now she endures in a thorough ravishing sending her into trembling quakes of pleasure through her entire body leaving her breathless with ecstasy!
In the heights of passion, his tongue clearly savoring the taste of hers in a deep kiss, one of his rough hands gripping hers pinning it above her head, the other caressing her cheek as she endures a passionate meaty impaling; she grips one of his butt cheeks with her soft free hand and one foot gently caressing the back of his thighs... her thoughts crying out in joy...
{Oooh~OOHHH.. g-gGGGODDESSSssss... save me! I'm going to be worthless tomorrow 'snicker'... he'll do this to me again in the morning 'sigh'.. and I'll let him.. I'm gonna need more tea! 'gasp!'}
Needless to say.. Sa'sori THOROUGHLY Enjoys her night with her young Ardent lover!
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori trembles in building pleasure again at his touch, and whispers back, "Never beloved! I'm yours... body and soul..."
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori does not dream that night.. she's living her dream...
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori.. is almost...Almost, relieved at her reprieve from a morning ravishing. She can't stop grinning though, but she is helpful.. careful not to excite him too much to ruin his day with exhaustion.. using her magic to clean and dress both herself and Evlar... content with a quick peck on the cheek as she leads him to breakfast and the daily chores.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori smiles warmly at Ashlyn giving her a quick sisterly hug, "Good morning to you too.. Mistress of the Night... anything weird or exciting to report from last night's watch?"
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
"Smooth sailing and calm skies." Ashlyn says perking up slightly as she returns your hug. Catching Elvar's eyes, Ashlyn adds, "You look exhausted." Turning to you she smirks teasing you both. "You didn't have to wear him down just to keep him too tired for me to enjoy."
Elvar blushes brightly at the teasing.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori beams~ grinning lasciviously, "...better be careful with him.. he's a Tiger in the sack, and worse... he's a fast learner! Had my toes curling and my ears wiggling.. among other things; all night long!" {Wink!}
Sa'sori just Adores seeing Evlar blush...
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori grins, sticking her tongue out at Evlar.
As Ashlyn passes, Sa'sori gives her a quick swat on the tush, "..I'll try to resist coming down here and ravishing you in your exhausted state!", her pretty violet eyes twinkling with sinful meaning...
With that she wraps his arm around her and leads a cheery red-blushing Evlar to the main deck for morning duty...
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Elvar whispers to her softly, "Some days I feel like I'll never understand you."
Reporting in to the shift, Captain Cormack has already finished morning inspection and quickly sets you both to work. Your morning goes by without too much of an incident.
As the noon sun reaches it's peak a crewman calls from the crows nest. "Ship, hard to port! Captain."
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori snickers, 'Keeps it interesting beloved.'
On deck Sa'sori leaps into her duties... as a rigger herself. It seems Evlar is a swab~ as per Skull & Shackles Crew jobs
On the spotting of the ship... Sa'sori lets Red Wing fly forth to get a good look off the vessel... and a feel for the crew's intentions.
Red Wing- Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31
- Red Wing is just as intelligent as a human so he's looking to see if the approaching ship's crew are preparing weapons or boarding gear for an attack.
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
"You really planning to sleep with her?" Elvar asks voice sounding both hopeful and slightly jealous.
...............
The ship is much larger than the Red Lady, it flies a Lastwall flag and another flag below it. They do appear to be sailing towards your ship.
Knowledge local and/or knowledge nobility checks.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori chuckles, "Whao.. down boy... I don't even know if she's into girls... let alone three-somes! But did you see her slender shapely figure~ bet she's a Rogue, those gorgeous amber eyes, and all that long silky fragrant dark hair? 'Yayeah!' Who would wouldn't want some of that?!? I'm mostly into guys.. singularly one terribly cute and innocent guy I know.. but I'm not blind either.. Ashelyn is a Beautiful! But, whether I sleep with her will be up to her... and YOU, of course, if you don't mind! But we are mostly strangers to her now.. so I'll give it some time.. I'm just playing with her... just to let her know.. I've noticed and am interested. If she's interested.. I'm sure she'll eventually let us know. I'm not intentionally trying to sexually frustrate her but it is kind of fun!"
Then adding in a joking tone...
"You know what they say about Rogues? They steal hearts and do IT in secret!"
"You know what they say about Bards? They do IT with.. well Everyone!"
"You know what they say about Fighters? They do IT with a specialization!"
"You know what they say about Clerics? They do IT ...behind the alter!"
"You know what they say about Monks? They DON'T Do IT!"
"You know what they say about Rangers? They do IT in the Woods!"
"You know what they say about Druids? They do it With the Woods!"
"You know what they say about Paladins? They do IT with Divine Grace!"
"You know what they say about Wizards? They do IT with magic!"
"You what they say about Sorcerers? We do IT... without magic!" {tee-hee}
............
Unfortunately Sa'sori has only a limited selection of skills and those knowledge skills are not her specialty... but she can make a unskilled check with a cap of 10...
Kno (Nobility}: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
Kno (Local): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
You recognize the first flag as being from Lastwall, the other is clearly a coat of arms, but to who it belongs eludes you.
Captain Cormack seems calm and collected. She gives orders to slow the ship to a crawl, allowing the other ship to catch up. She sends one crewman downstairs to wake Able, and then calls for you to remain by her side.
In a hushed tone, she whispers to you, "No casting. Nothing that can provoke them, but be ready for this to go poorly. If anyone seems to be casting anything at our ship, I want to know. Quietly."
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori nods silently and casts a detect magic immediately.. keeping her senses keen for any magical spell being cast or in operation, and mindful to keep her detection cone away for the passenger cabins to avoid reactive counterspelling of whatever the nobleman has with him...
Whispering her own reply. "Yes, Captain, Ma'am... I'm on it!"
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
The other ship rolls up next to the Red Lady[i] a well armored man in polished shining plate calls across to the Captain. "Good morning milady. Permission to come aboard?"
The captain is curious in her response, "The [i]Red Lady always welcomes passengers. May I ask what business you have with her?"
The man frowns heavily, twisting his thick mustache. "We're looking for a man who may have been kidnapped. I'll need to see your crew manifest immediately."
Captain Cormack eyes the man with a fierce glance. "On whose authority are you asking to searching my ship?"
"Lord Mayor Akarian Vash."
"The Lord Mayor of Vellumis, well then who am I to refuse. Drop a plank for them immediately." Captain Cormack relents.
Two crewman quickly slide a boarding pike across to the other ship. The well armored man and two of his crewman march across with a small courtier in tow. The courtier quickly makes his way up to Captain Cormack presenting a letter of authorization for operation in Vellumis. He next presents a sketch of a man that greatly resembles your passenger.
The armored man's booming voice draws your attention again as he barks, "Have you seen this man? It is imperative we find him immediately."
All three men who have boarded this ship have magical armor and weapons. The courtier has a magical abjuration effect active on himself.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori makes no response, as she was not directly addressed in her opinion... and she does not respond well to people she does not know or respect barking at her...
But she is concerned this seems likely a setup...
She eyes the courtier trying to determine the nature of the abjuration effect she is sense upon his person.
Spellcraft: {Id Spell effect} 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9
But is clearly not making much progress analyzing the effect.
Thinking, {Grrr... perhaps I need to focus more on my arcane book learning instead of flashy displays of magic?}
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
The Captain pretends to study the letter of authorization, biding her time to decide how she wishes to handle this situation. She finally returns the papers asking, "May I ask what he's done?"
The armored man answers curtly, "He's no criminal. This man's estate was attacked three days past. The city guard found the estate ransacked, it's vault emptied. A number of dead bandits and servants. Unfortunately we found no traces of this estate's owner or any of the contents of his vault."
Captain Cormack nods and answers, "I'm sorry, he does not look familiar to me. Good luck with your search Captain."
The man pauses, then asks, "I do apologize ma'am, but we were ordered to do everything in our power. I'll have to have my men search your ship. You may have your crew supervise if you wish."
"And if I refuse?"
The man shifts into a defensive stance, "Then we will have to take the ship by force."
"Sir, I'll hand a manifest copy over. You will not search my ship. That is my due diligence for docking in Vellumis. You were allowed to board as a cutesy. Now get off my ship." Captain Cormack is no longer speaking politely to a fellow captain. Her words drip with agitation.
The courtier steps away from the Captain, as the armored man draws his blade, his crew quickly following suit.
Roll initiative.
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori Initiative: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
As soon as things become clearly.. 'unfriendly' Sa'sori, Draws her elven curve blade {move action}, and steps to the Captain's side, but still out of weapon threatening range of the armored man {free action - 5'ft step}... and opens hostilities without any compunction...
Aiming her spell high so as to keep the 15'ft-cone from touching the deck of the ship... she casts {Standard Action} - Burning Hands at the armored man and his two crewmen.. keeping the courtier out of the AoE... since he did not draw weapon and stepped away from the Captain!
Damage -Burning Hands: {REF Save DC15 - 1/2 Dam} 5d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 2, 4) = 11
Her Arcane tattoos glow brightly with the unleashed arcane fire! {Wa-WHOOOOSSSHHHH!!!}
Sa'sori calls out "To Arms.. the Captain is assaulted!"
DM_Kumo Gekkou |
Captain Cormack Initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Elvar Initiative: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (15) + 0 = 15
Enemy Captain Initiative: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Courtier Initiative: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Enemy Crewman Initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Round 1 Turn Order: Courtier, Captain Cormack, Enemy Crewman, Red Lady's Crewman, Enemy Captain, Elvar, Sa'sori
The courtier standing by Captain Cormack will begin to cast a spell. A burst of flames shoots from his hands licking at the captain and you.
Reflex save for you and Captain Cormack for half damage. DC 14
Fire damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4
Captain Cormack's Reflex save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24
Captain Cormack's rage is evident, her fury boiling over as she shifts the bandoleer on her coat off, it transforming into a bow in her hands. "You dare come on my ship and attack me!"
Shot 1 at Courtier: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 16
damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 2 = 14
She looses an arrow at the courtier, knocking him to the ground. The arrow clearly impacted but you see a lack of blood. As she draws her second arrow, you see the tips of her arrows are blunted.
Shot 2 at Crewman 1: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 12
damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 = 12
Shot 3 at Crewman 1: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 6
Her second arrow knocks one of the enemy crewman out, and her third arrow bounces harmlessly off the last crewman's armor.
The enemy crewman bounds up the stairs, swinging his blade at Captain Cormack, but she easily sidesteps his swing.
Crewman attack vs Captain Cormack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
The Red Lady's crew watch with anticipation. Trying to tie down ringings quickly so they can join the fray to defend their captain.
The enemy captain also makes his way up the stairs, the wheel being in his way to attack Captain Cormack, he instead steps to the side attacking you.
Enemy captain vs Sa'sori flat-footed: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Elvar seeing the blade come out dripping with your blood flies into a rage. "Get away from her!" he yells at the top of his lungs as he abandons his post charging up the stairs and bringing his cold iron longsword down with both hands, a spray of the enemy Captain's blood splashing out.

Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Everything happened so fast Sa'sori intention was simply lost in the rush of battle as arcane fire rolls over her...
Reflex Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
..nimbly enough she pirouettes away form the bulk of the flames.
Only to turn right into the enemy Captain coming right at her swinging a falchion to bite deeply into her shoulder, 'Arghggh!'
Sa'sori seemingly in slow motion steps away form the enemy Captain... her vision blurry with blood loss, {free action - 5'ft step} to take a position next to Captain Carromac, drawing her elven curve blade to defend herself {move action}, and she begins casting on the defensive her Magic Missile spell at the attacking Captain...
Concentration: {DC15+spell Lvl '16'} 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25
Her arcane tattoos flash with power and three bolts of magical force strike the enemy Captain center chest!
{Shaaa-crack-crack-crack!!!}
Magic Missile Damage: 3d4 + 3 ⇒ (1, 4, 2) + 3 = 10
...Sa'sori is dimly aware that Evlar has attacked the enemy captain.. which keeps her from unleashing her cone arcane fire at him for fear of hitting her beloved!

The captain reels back at your strike grunting in pain.
Captain Cormack takes a step back loosing another volley of arrows at the crewman, only the last one striking him. Even still it is more than enough to knock him out. Then the captain turns her fierce gaze to the enemy captain. "You have a choice to make, weather you leave my ship conscious or not."
Shot 1 at crewman 2: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 12
Shot 2 at crewman 2: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 14
Shot 3 at crewman 2: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 1 - 4 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 2 = 10
The enemy captain frowns heavily, "You dare make an enemy of lastwall. Fine! I'll surrender for now. But you have not heard the last from me."
Combat over
Sa'sori 'Kalisreavil' |
Sa'sori is not taking any chances as she casts shield spell {Standard Action}upon herself in the pause of the fight...
Then the feisty young half-elven woman speaks her mind, "Sir, you claim this man, you seek~ his estate was attacked three days ago, yet you make no accusation and bear no evidence suggesting any of our crew had anything to do with this attack! You have our manifest, showing what we have onboard that is of any concern to the Authority of Lastwall... you in effect have NO just reason to search our ship other than insulting us and calling us liars! No sir.. it is YOU who have made an enemy of US for no polite reason or are manners and common civility lacking in Last Wall?"
She has not sheathed her elven curve blade yet... but is not currently pointing at him but is blade point down with both her hands resting on its pommel ready to lift for use if needed...

The man just growls in response as he starts to drag his men across the plank back to his ship. All under the watchful eye and pointed arrow of Captain Cormack. "You were shown mercy. Don't throw your lives away by returning to this ship."
The crew of the Red Lady help returning the unconscious men over to the other ship and just as soon as the last has crossed, the plank is removed. Captain Cormack will replace her bow. The glamour on it melting it back into a sash across her coat. She is quick to turn the Lady away and sail as far and fast as they can away from Lastwall. The whole way, a rage is boiling inside her.
As soon as the ship is out of site and alone as far as the horizon stretches, Captain Cormack gives a quick command. "Sa'sori, you're with me. Now!" As she leaves the wheel heading to the crew cabins.
