Baldwin the Merciful's: Razor Coast (Inactive)

Game Master baldwin the merciful

Chell nods at Astrianna, the move causing her short hair to fly around like she had just been shocked. Ironic considering what she was about to do next. She swims up enough to poke her head above the water and unleashes a dual stroke of lightning in the targets closest to Sorrin. The bolts temporarily illuminates the whole cave in blue light before returning to darkness.

Lightning: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 3) = 13 DC 19 ref

Now I can hit them. Not underwater anymore. Move action and Standard. I can only hit the two closest to Sorrin because all targets have to be within 30ft of each other.

I assume you are taking the bolt as a vertical angle to strike, sort of like a slash, to hit both targets.

Everyone but Sorrin, who is about to climb out of the water, make a perception check.

The group remains in the swirl of fresh blood, the rich coppery scent mixing in the air and briny water.

My, what big TEETH... you have! Sorrin speaks to keep his mind of things as he considers the best approach.

Round 5

Perception, seaworthy: 1d20 + 16 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 16 + 2 = 33

Action might change based on perception, but this is my action for now

Noticing the sharks in the water are all dead, she takes a moment to try and get her bearings through the bloodied waters. Everyone is still next to her, having somehow survived an even-numbered shark attack in the shark's own home.

The sting of saltwater on her wounded arm reminds her she should be following Sorrin out of the water and onto the ledge. Gods, they're all weresharks... they're huge...

The bard sheaths her rapier and swims for the ledge underwater, continuing an inspiring tune.

Free action: Maintain inspire courage (15/23)

Move action:Stow rapier

Move action:Swim 15 feet to K19

Every one but Sorrin and Bri know there is more shark activity coming from below, attracted to the blood scent.

RD 5: Hybrid Weresharks

The two hybrids near Sorrin attack, the creatures hack and chop down viciously.

confirming Crit:

bite: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25;damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

I'm not sure what you AC is at this point. I believe you have +1 AC from haste. If AC is 25, then you've taken 26 HP.

Am I fully in the water, out of the water or partially submerged/waist deep? I think I get the benefit of cover vs. creatures attacking from land if submerged. I applied full 26 damage until I hear back.

Round 5

Chell shielded her eyes eyes from the bright light of the bolts of lightning by ducking her head underwater and closing her eyes. When she opened them she something come through the opening in the bottom of the cave. It wasn't too hard to put 2 and 2 together. "Out. Get out of the water. More sharks." Putting action to suggestion she swims closer to shore while still softening Sorrin's targets.

Lightning: 3d6 ⇒ (6, 2, 2) = 10

Move to F19 if I have haste too. I19 if not. Fire off more lightning. Also it is two separate bolts. It acts like Call lightning.

Am I fully in the water, out of the water or partially submerged/waist deep? I think I get the benefit of cover vs. creatures attacking from land if submerged. I applied full 26 damage until I hear back.

Partially submerged.

Partially submerged.

If chest deep, +8 to AC from improved cover. If less, nothing... But, I should be able to walk/acrobat onto land?

Sorrin is standing on rocky underwater ledge waist deep, on the 6'2 man when he was attacked.

The half orc doesn need to be told twice by the cleric so he swims for this life towards land.

He forgot to shut his mouth and he chokes on some saltwater but he does manage to make some progress towards the shoreline.

Sorrin and Bri have RD 5 actions.

Sorrin hacks away at the nearest shark beast.

Astrianna notices the approaching mass of hungry sharks speeding towards their location, and regrets taking the time to sheath her weapon. She tries to make up for lost time, rapidly front crawling her way to the ledge on the surface of the water.

What's the AC on these bad boys... Did you count the silver, crits, not underwater, the damage from last round and the lightning?

What's the AC on these bad boys... Did you count the crits, the damage from last round and the lightning?

AC 20 but they have some HPs. Chells lighting was counted. You killed one, the missed your second attack, and hit with the haste on the other.

Bri makes a 5 foot move towards the land and sleeps one of the weresharks.

moves to D, 19 and casting sleep hex on B,14/15, Will save DC 19

wereshark save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Bri you can't 5ft step in the water unless you have swim speed. It's hazardous terrain to you. swim check: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 You are able to maintain swim and cast your hex.

Updated Map after Bri put the wereshark to sleep

Sorry for the silence. Busy weekend. Birthday, Birthday, Game, Raid.

Chell continues towards the...relative safety of the shore while keeping up the attack. Two more bolt of lightning illuminate the cave as they strike their targets.

Lightning: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 5) = 11 DC 19. Only 1 bolt left if my math is right.

Move to C16 and strike the two weresharks.

Verifying, 2 weresharks full attacked Sorrin, so that guy on the left is adjacent?

Weresharks have 10 ft reach but I do believe I previously posted he stepped up, I may not have adjusted that on the map. I'll have to search the thread.

Found the post he did step up closer.

Astrianna continues swimming for her life, knowing the sharks are close. The meatshields were on shore, and she didn't feel like fighting off a swarm of sharks by herself.

Swim and climb are two skills that don't see as much use as the others, but are deadly to fail...

But, but, but... It's a pirate setting w/water and rigging!

Sorrin bleeding, but emboldened by his recent success... pushes his luck with the were-beast to his left.

Come on, we're more effective on land!

The werebeast next to Sorrin falls over sliced, diced and minced from his blade work. He takes a moment to survey the surroundings he notes the slumbering creature nearby. this rocky grotto overlooks the cave entrance and western end contains six crates and two barrels. There is at the far western edge.

Astri manages to swim and grasp onto the ledge, hulling her drenched body up onto a stony footing. She can hear the feeding frenzy of thrashing sharks devouring the dead.

Astriana grunts as she barely hauls herself off out of the water, nearly slipping multiple times. She manages to hop up and scramble forward so Bri and Chell can have room to climb up, never realizing how much she enjoyed solid ground beneath her feet until so took a few steps.

Despite dripping with water the half-elf draws her bow and smoothly knocks a silver-headed arrow, launching it at Ptahh's target.
