pesst...Ithaniar, your davids showing ;D

Lies! I would never make such a mistake! :P

"I might try that, but I'm not really good at sneaking. Maybe It can do that, while I watch his back?"

Das passiert mir die ganze Zeit.

"This is strong proof that Verk is up to no good. Let's get that boat and investigate, Captain Forzhakhad."

"This is strong proof that Verk is up to no good. Let's get that boat and investigate, Captain Forzhakhad."

Without commenting on the discussion around her Whisper starts shedding clothing, removing bulkier layers that would hinder her movement. Her light crossbow and backpackfinds their place with her clothes and she gathers them all up in a bundle before moving away from the group. Quickly she squirrels them away somewhere she deems to be a safe enough hiding spot for an hour or two before silently walking to the water's edge and preparing to dive in.

As Captain Forzakhad,Finn, Guard,Ithaniar and It move to retrieve a boat ,whispers dives into the cool water of the bay. The water slides around her as she makes her way to the ship,in the days fadeing light.

I am aguessing you are takeing 10 on this.The water is calm.You will reach the Nixie in 8 rounds

As whisper swims the bay the rest of the group makes there way to the boat tied at the end of the second pier. As he sun touches the horizon whisper is deep in the coming shadow as she approaches the ship. Three men can be seen on board armed with crossbows of some kind. Two on the main deck one on the quarter deck. They scan the bay with sharp eyes as night nears

Whipser I need a stealth check,a climb for boarding and a 2nd stealth fo being on the ship.The others are 8 rounds out with hard rowing..16 at a more standred pace.

As if ordered to, Guard sits down next to the paddels of the boat, hitting a fast tempo with his rowing.

It settles into Guard's rhythm with the oars.

Stealth, climb, stealth (1d20+7=23, 1d20+4=19, 1d20+7=15)

Whisper swims quietly out to the boat and climbs on board as quietly as she can without knowing the layout, especially where would be good to hide.

Sighting the guards on patrol on the deck of the boat, Finn concentrates and utters a few words in the language of magic, surrounding his body with an invisible armored sheath.

Finn casts Mage Armor before he gets to the boat.

Ith sees Finn speak his arcane words and loosens his double scimitar in its sheath...

Keeper:

Whisper

Everyone else

Unless otherwise directed, It continues rowing wordlessly.

Finn snorts disdainfully.

"Ignore that fellow -- we can discuss matters with the men on board the ship."

Keeper:

"Once we get near I can put the spell of fear on everyone on board, that is not on our side."

Full Defense

Whisper

Every one else

Finn keeps an eye out for Whisper's mangled body in case it floats by the boat. ;-)

Hey it might make a useful flotation device :P

Thanks for the vote of confidence guys!

Whisper

1 round and counting....you guys will be halfway there once ya catch up.

Whisper

We are now all in the same time.

Finn scans the side of the ship for a rope or chain to climb up, ignoring the guards on duty unless they hail him.

Finn

Whisper

Guard stays in the boat for starters, trying to get a good hold to the ship to let others get on board.
If somehow possible. Strength roll?

Forzakhad readies his crossbow and prepares to shoot, if Whisper's being attacked.

Whisper

Everyone else

2 rounds to the ship 30 feet[9.14 meters]

Upon recognising the bolts Guard stops rowing, looking at the captain for an decision if he still wants to go further towards the ship, risking lives.

Whisper

Whisper

It continues rowing, but notes the exact location of Its repeating crossbow.

"Go on, get me a bit nearer to the ship, and I can hinder all enemies on the boat." Forzakhad whispers. "They are not gonna let her go without having a bit of fun."

Hearing the Captain's orders, Guard continues to row towards the ship.

Finn is on the verge of bellowing out a challenge when he hears Forzakhad's advice. He keeps his mouth shut for the nonce, ready to spring and climb up one of the ropes once the psion performs his diversion.

When we are in range, Forzakhad concentrates. Some of the hoodlums on the ship begin to stagger as pictures overwhelm their minds.

"Now!" he says. "Get us close."

"Now!" he says. "Get us close."

Before I finish my post ,I will allow a charge with the boat. This will allow you to close the distance in one round ,however you will not be able to stop before you slam into the Nixie. Everyone on the boat who is not rowing will have to make reflex saves or be hurled off into the water,the hull, or the floor of the boat. Furthermore your actions will be clear to the men on the ship and will be taken as hostel.If you want to do this let me know.

"Not too fast... easy.. easy... we are all unproficient on the water.."

No charge please.

"Not too fast... easy.. easy... we are all unproficient on the water.."

No charge please.

Guard keeps rowing his rhythm, trying to get the boat alongside the ship somewhere where it would be easy to get aboard.
