Nymph misses again, here wild ax blows evaded by the shifty crabs.

They can't be all that shifty if they're grappling us.

Well they're persistent. The last thing you want is a persistent case of crabs.

1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 - 4 = 10 for 1d3 ⇒ 2 zap

Never had that problem.

Longbow+Pbs: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Yuki fires another arrow at the same crab.

Jumping the gun a bit there Yuki, but miss. Ayre misses as well.

The crabs continue their onslaught, one advancing by five foot step to attack Yuki. Galean hits.

Attack (Claws): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16 Vs Yuki
Attack (Claws): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14 Vs Galean
Attack (Claws): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 Vs Nymph

HP: 16/26

Attack: 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (8) + 4 - 1 = 11
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 3 = 9

Nymph continues to futilely hack at the crabs.

Sorry, I'm unsure how I was jumping the gun, the crabs acted then everyone did, then Yuki did.

Galean steps over a crab, slashing in an incredibly ungraceful way between his legs. "Come on! Stab them! Stab them now!", he shouts at Nymph, moving so that the grabs can't crab as easily.

HP:14/22, Suggest flanking. Repositioning to F8.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Yuki, sorry, I must have misplaced your action when we jumped pages!

Nymph moves along with the rigger's shouts. Moved to F10.

I don't mean to be a bother, but could we get an update on the map? I'm not sure where everyone is positioned now, especially the crab attacking Yuki.

Terribly sorry, at work so no new map until this afternoon. The crab at E8 to D8.

Crab chess!

More like the Benny Hill Home Game.

Needs more Yakkity Sax then.

Let it never be said I don't provide.

Thankies... now if you could just unprovide the crabs.

I can't do everything for you. Maybe roll above a 10?

I'm trying :(

We really are a mighty bunch aren't we?

ayre swears and Rocky makes a rude gesture to the crabs and he moves forward and hits them both with color spray DC 14 will

Yuki retreats 5' north from the crab attacking her and fires two arrows at it.

Longbow 1+PBS-RS: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Longbow 2+PBS-RS: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Dexterity DC 10: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

Her first shot is lousy, but at least she keeps the bow in her hand for the second.

The crabs are frustratingly still up. Laughing, laughing at you, or clacking their mandibles together mockingly.

Will Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
Will Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Blinded and Stunned for: 1d4 ⇒ 2 Rounds
Blinded and Stunned for: 1d4 ⇒ 4 Rounds

The northern most crab continues to pursue Yuki.

Attack (Claws): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

In vain.

HP: 16/26

Attack: 1d20 + 4 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 - 1 + 2 = 7
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 + 3 = 15

Oh come on! It's blind and stunned. Also, updated map now up.

Tell my dice roller that... Please?

Clearly something needs to be done. OK, first you're going to a chicken and a working knowledge of Latin.

Are we summoning or exorcising? Granted I doubt either will help.

"At least when we finally kill these things we'll have a good dinner tonight." Yuki muses as she takes another 5 foot step to the north and shoots two more arrows at the crab pursuing her.

Rapid shot 1: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Rapid shot 2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

It's a reverse curse on your dice.

Yuki's first arrow strikes, but the crab lurches on.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 3 + 2 = 22
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Galean hacks at the crab that's been pestering him since the beginning. Concentrating fire.

"Nymph, I thought you'd be better at handling crabs!", he shouts, as the cutlass clangs resoundingly on the crab's shell.

"Never had this problem, you on the other hand are apparently an expert at dealing with crabs." Nymph growls back, the joking was helping a little, but her uselessness was starting to eat at her.

Ayre?

Ayre will fire a jolt at a stunned one and move up to prepare to CDG it next round.

1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 - 4 = 2 for 1d3 ⇒ 2

Sigh.

Attack (Claws): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Ayre stands next to the downed foe and CDG's it with a spear

2d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 4) + 2 = 8 owes me a CON check of 18 or it is kaput!!

I bet these would taste pretty good boiled up with some drawn butter...

The crab is stunned. A stunned creature is neither helpless nor paralyzed. You cannot coup de grace.

oh

1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 4 = 17 for 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 plus 1 bleed

Ayre skewers the downed crab

HP: 16/26

Attack: 1d20 + 4 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 4 - 1 + 2 = 25
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 3 = 10
Confirm: 1d20 + 4 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 4 - 1 + 2 = 12
Critical: 1d10 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 + 3 = 14
But of course.

Yuki moves 5 foot away from the crab engaged with her if necessary to avoid an attack of opportunity, and shoots two more arrows at it.

Rapid Shot 1: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
Rapid Shot 2: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Le sigh.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Confirm: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6 Oh, well. Also, them tactical crab movements.

Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

Galean swings at the crab, barely missing his tender, tasty underbelly, as the cutlass chops one of it's legs off.

"At the least, Ayre, we'll get some decent chowder when we're back!"

You successfully cut down one of the stunned crabs, but the other one's eyes begin to focus.

The one pursuing Yuki continues its quest to kill the oracle.

Attack (Claws): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
Damage (Claws): 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Having successfully landed a hit it decides to grab Yuki to prevent her from escaping.

Grab: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
Damage (Constrict): 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Go!

HP: 16/26

Attack: 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (7) + 4 - 1 = 10
Damage: 1d10 + 3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 3 = 8

Ayre blasts fire to hmit the remaining 2 if pssible

2d4 ⇒ (1, 2) = 3 DC 14

Distracted by Galean almost repeating what she said 6 seconds ago, Yuki finds herself grabbed and nearly killed by the crab's claws. She drops her bow and attacks with her short sword.

Shortsword: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

Guys, you're not actually supposed to die here! And who's carrying the potions?

Whoops. Chowder is at least good enough to be mentioned twice, though, Yuki. Also, these crabs are literally the worst."
