Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
1d2 ⇒ 1
Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Galean doesn't expect getting bitten, and his cutlass attack misses wildly.

He then looks at the beasts, frantically trying to figure out what they are.
Knowledge(Nature) to find out what these things are: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Galean, on a one on your attack roll, please roll Dexterity, DC 10 (it goes up as your level goes up!) to avoid dropping your weapon.

You can't identify the monsters as a purely natural creature.

Roll Knowledge (Dungeoneering) to identify, DC 11

Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Two of the monsters, at I9 and J12, sink back into the water.

Time to swim.

Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Carthus, that's why it's important to post over the weekend! You technically reach the reef second I think? Can you find a location on the map within 15 feet of Nymph/Galean/Ayre but not next to the monsters?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You deal with sick kids, in laws and such. L13?

That works, go ahead and make your combat movement.

Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Move to K12

Attack(Dagger): 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 1 = 14
Damage(Dagger): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Carthus makes a masterful slice and lops off a claw.

Survival: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24 Carthus grabs for the claw and makes it.

Carthus stares down the eel monster daring it to try again.

Carthus, I decide what your attacks do in descriptive terms - you don't get to cripple a monster with one attack unless you, you know, kill it. I'll keep that Survival roll on tap I guess.

Punk. Very well then.

Waiting for Wulf I think.

Reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Reaally.

Galean shouts obscenities as his cutlass submerges in the water. That's 15 doubloons down the drain... He then realizes that the creature is still here next to him, and focuses on it.

Ouch

swim: 1d20 ⇒ 6

Wulf attempts to swim towards the combat but doesn't make any headway.

The last monster responds by attacking Carthus to retaliate from the dagger cut.

Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13
Damage (Claw): 1d4 ⇒ 1 Make a DC 13 Fort Save!

You guys again.

The toxins tinging through her body she still attempts to stab at the remaining creature.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Damage: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

... Didn't I just roll that?

When you find a place you're comfortable with you stick with it!

THAT IS MOST DEFINITELY NOT MY CONFORT ZONE!

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17 fort

1d20 + 3 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 3 - 4 = 16 for 1d3 ⇒ 3 Aure tries to jolt the beast

He smiles as the shock sparks off the shell

Since Swim is a move action, I believe you can try twice if you fail the first time, Wulf

Swim: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Yuki swims closer to the fight and readies herself in case one of those super lobsters attack her.

Move action, swim to M11, ready an attack if an enemy moves to an adjacent square

Readied attack: Quarterstaff: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Fortitude vs Poison: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Whoops, almost forgot.

And Yay!

Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 Carthus can't swim to a better position against the eel.
Fortitude: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 And is poisoned. @(#&$@.
Attack(Dagger): 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 4 + 1 = 17 Carthus is so pissed he shoves the dagger straight through the eel monster's eye socket.
Damage(Dagger): 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 Causing a fair amount of damage to the stupid thing.

Poison: 1d2 ⇒ 1 Strength Damage

Yeah and what about that (@#&$@ eel? I just put 12 damage through that thing.

It's not dead yet, it's just a flesh wound!

Believe!

Silly eel.

Galean will try to provide flanking to Carthus, as he moves closer to him.

Swim DC 10, moving half speed: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

"So, Carthus, we're eating eels tonight, right?" says Galean, furiously thrashing in Carthus' direction.

Fort: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

We all love you, dice roller. No sarcasm. At all.

swim: 1d20 ⇒ 5
swim: 1d20 ⇒ 10

Wulf eventually manages to flounder over to N8.

Galean, you didn't want to try and recover your cutlass?

The dying monster will lash out at Carthus again.

Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Attack (Claw): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Damage (Claw): 1d4 ⇒ 4 Remember to make another Fort save, same DC.

Map

Go!

nah I'll get it for him after

Fortitude: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 = 12
Strength:13/15

Giving out a growl that only a shark can give, which being unheard is still no less disturbing since it's from a shark, Nymph lashes out at the wounded creature once more.

Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Yuki swims over by the monster on Carthus and tries to brain it with her quarterstaff. "These things don't give up easily!"

Swim: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Quarterstaff: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Moved to M9

Ayre blasts a spear at the one in front of him 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 3 = 15 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 +1 bleed

Ayre's spear impales the monster that's still moving, and it dies.

The other two monsters are still alive.

1d4 ⇒ 4

Wait which ones are still alive? Because I'm suspiciously in between Ayre and one of the eels and I really don't want to have been spit roasted.

I9, J13

Fortitude: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22 Saved!
Swim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24 Stroke! Stroke! Move to J11
Attack(Dagger): 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 4 + 1 = 10
Damage: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

The faster they're dead the faster I can start on sushi. There's no way I can mess up sushi, right? I mean when has raw fish ever been bad to anyone's health?

Galean tries to grapple the eel, forgetting the proverb for a moment.

Grapple: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

The eel slithers away, being all slimy and stuff.

Really, grappling an eel?

Raw crab or eel meat isn't good for sushi actually.

Carthus's dagger skitters along the edge the chitin protecting the monster and Galean's attempt to grapple the monster fail.

Man, I'm wishing one of you had identified the monsters, I'm tired of calling them "monsters".

swim: 1d20 ⇒ 19

Wulf swims up to M8 and makes an attack with one of his knives.

attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10 damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Fortitude: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 2 = 8
So Strengrh will be 12 or 11 now.

The poison still stinging through her body she swims over to the one Wulf is attacking to strike in help.

Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Obviously decrease these by 1 if her STR goes to 11.

M8?

Nymph's blow strikes through, even with her wasted strength.

Yeah.

And yay! I hit one! :3

I believe Round 3 is waiting on Ayre and Yuki.

*still doing happy finally-got-a-hit-in dance*

Do you want to build a snow man? Or ride our bikes around the halls? I think some company is overdue. I've started talking to the pictures on the waallllllssss!

not me I speared it and killed one above. I did a color spray, which hit one, a jolt which hit one and the spear which hit one.

I haven't seen another action from the monsters since Yuki's last action, but in case I missed something:

Swim: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Having already moved adjacent to Carthus (M9), Yuki tries to wallop the enhanced eel again, but only ends up splashing water all over the place.

Quarterstaff: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Color spray made them dazed or something.
