You give the target a mental urge to kill its nearest ally, which it obeys to the best of its ability. The target attacks its nearest ally on its next turn with a melee weapon or natural weapon. If necessary, it moves to or charges to the nearest ally in order to make this attack. If it is unable to reach its closest ally on its next turn, the target uses its turn to get as close as possible to the ally.
I am hoping that with Calistria's help that we should be able to confront and get them two and make them pay
"I think we should leave this cave, but stay out of eyesight of the ship. Feast on crab, heal wounds, be ready to take them tomorrow morning."

Sounds like a plan, but what is the plan for the rest of us?TO Jax Suny replies,
"Well, since Calah wants ta' get all sneaky like an' swim back ta' yon ship. Maybe we all should make a scene of not seemin' ta' find whut t'is we were lookin' fer in this cave an' be all obvious about wanderin' further around tha' coast? Kind'a be a distraction fer Calah an' such?" Suny suggests.
"Though, takin' tha' Jolly boat with ye so's ye can make a quicker trip back ta' yon boat on tha' morrow when we's all plannin' on makin' tha' bad folks pay would also be somat ta' do..."
Jax like idea. Okay, just let me know when. We also have to pick a good spot so they don't see Calah by accident because our spot was too much near her escape route.
As the day turns to night you feast on the crab just out of sight of the Man's Promise. (Calah feel free to roll for how well you cooked). Even once the sun goes down there is still plenty of illumination as the Moon looms large in the sky. (Dim light) The seas and wind are calm; stark contrast to the storm of the night before.
Arjun digs a small hole in the sand for his hip and lies down sideways, using his arms for a pillow. He yawns. "Does anyone want to take first watch?"

Jax takes first watch. Aye take first watch. I'll need a willing volunteer smart person to take first watch with me. Jax pauses for a minute. Mainly because if I can't wake you up in time or something happens I'm not making life changing decisions solo. Jax thinks for a second clearing his throat. There are 7 of us, so up to 3 per watch will be fine.
I will take first watch with Jax
Suny happily and greatly enjoys feasting on the remains of the HUGE crustacean. Much lips smacking and finger licking also happens during the evening's meal.
Though stil a little sore after the encounter with both the crab and the grindy's Suny is full of enough bounce to offer to take the mid-night shift.
(^_^)
noro will take first watch as well if needed.
"I will take a later watch, perhaps with Sandra? I think two people per watch should be enough. Give the rest the chance for some good rest."
Calah suggests, hoping for some alone time with Sandra.
The night passes uneventfuly, as the sun begins to rise tropical birds arround the island begin to awake and greet the morning with sqwaking.
After waking up, Dimitrious will have some more of that tasty crab
Calah has some fun time with Sandra during the night, flirting some more.
Sandra laughs and eats some of the crab. She bites her lower lip and has smile across her face.
Suny yawns and stretches as she enjoys the warmth of the morning sun upon herself. She rises and skips down to the shore to give herself a quick wash in the ocean waves before bouncing back to where the group has set up their small camp and strapping her armor back on.
She looks to the ruddy coals of the camp fire and smiles,
"Mmmm... that still smells good.." So saying she helps herself to a wonderful breakfast of crab along with every one else. after licking her fingers clean once more,
"So? Is we goin' ta' look fer water, at least? T'is somat tha' ship be needin'."
Arjun raises an eyebrow at Suny. "You know... if we were to prune our crew down a bit, we wouldn't need so much water..."
So who is going to be in the scouting party and who is going to be part of the distraction?
"If there are others who can help with stealth approach by spells, let me know, I can probably help you swim to the ship with a spell."
Suny frowns a little at Ajun's comment. "I thought we jus' din't like tha' bad peoples...?" She shrugs.
"Um... I were thinkin' we'd all be lookin' more about tha' island then me an' Calah be swimmin' out ta' tha' boat tonight ta' talk ta' them's we think is friendlily an' such an' then in'a couple more days with more food an' water ta' be comin' aboard we use all that commotion ta' be makin' our motion?" Suny suggests.
"Plugg did say we had three days ta' be doin' stuff....Woouldn't comin' back early be, y'know, odd?" Suny asks.
"I be rilly interested in this new place we be sittin' on. Dun't no one else want ta' go fer a look see?"
After her morning prayers at the beach, Calah comes back to the others and announces
"Right I prepared some spells that can assist one other person to come with us in case we need a stealthy getaway. I can cast spells that allow him to swim underwater, hide all of us from any water creatures that might like a bite and a fog spell to obscure the ship when we arrive. I also prepared a spell that could easily get us aboard and into the Galley.
Now who comes with Suny and me this evening for the mission to get the crew on our side?"
I would like to volunteer, I can offer some assistance with stealth and I do have a potion of invisibilty
"I would not mind joining you this evening. Perhaps we could even find certain persons. Certain unpleasant persons. Perhaps we will find them sleeping, yes? People do not wake up all the time. Such a shame."
"It might be better fight them in open combat. That way we make our strength apparent and win the remainder of the crew over. If we kill them sneakingly, we have no idea what the rest of the crew will do. They might sail off, kill our friends aboard or name one of their own as Cap'tan and we have to do the whole thing again."
She places her hand on Arjun's shoulder and looks him in the eyes when she continues
"Not to fret, you will have your chance to gut them. If I didn't burn their useless bodies first."
Calah's hate for the two men is clear. She has experience with their types and will do all she can to make them suffer as they made her and her friends suffer.
Are we going to explore anymore of this island, before we hit them tonight?
Still relaxing int the morning sun after a good night's sleep and an awesome breakfast Suny stretches even as she wriggles her toes in the sand.
"I thought we were goin' ta' explore more of tha' island? We needs ta' look fer water an' stuffs. I thought we were goin' ta' be makin' our move after the next two days?" She says to Dimitrious, though voiced to carry to every one.

Jax looks confused. Why are we using stealth to get on board if we are taking them head on to begin with?
Jax then responds to Sunny, don't worry we should be able to find water on this island, mostly the trees and plants hold plenty if we could extract some from a tree. Plus with this far out in sea, and with all the thunderstorms we can use our waterskins to catch the rain.
Suny shakes her head even as she smiles back at Jax,
"We in't sneakin' aboard ta' raise havok. Just ta' slip in an' see who might be on our side when we does tha' deed of challengin' Master Plugg, Scourge an' them's whut be of a nature ta' be right nasties." She explains,
"As fer catchin' water in a lil' bit o' leather? I say we find a stream we can dunk barrels in't. Be much less work fer much more gain." (^_~)
"I thought we were goin' ta' explore more of tha' island? We needs ta' look fer water an' stuffs. I thought we were goin' ta' be makin' our move after the next two days?" She says to Dimitrious, though voiced to carry to every one.
I like that idea, 2 more days of potential enemies fixing our ship
Suny laughs brightly at Dimitriou's view of things. (^_^)

"To inform our friends on the ship of what is happening so they can prepare as well. Some of em might need convincin'. We can also scout to see what Scourge and his mateys are up to."
"Very well." He raises his hands in a conciliatory gesture. "Whom do we think would be most likely to join us?"
Suny nods in agreement with Jax, even as some aspect of his comment causes the Elf lass to blush and seemingly look away embarrassed.
"SO! We should be packin' up as much of tha' meat as we can fer takin' back with us an' get movin' explorin' tha' island, hey?!" She says exuberantly as she changes the subject. (^_^)

to see if he can see in between the lines and figure this out.
[dice=sensemotive]1+1d20 to see if he can see in between the lines and figure this out.
"Very well." He raises his hands in a conciliatory gesture. "Whom do we think would be most likely to join us?"
"Groop and maybe his drinking buddy Grok. Sandra, Conchobhar, what do you guys think? You know the crew longer then we do."
We may be able to get Owlbear, He is the ships enforcer that they keep tied up in the middle hold. Not the sharpest tool in the shed but probably really good in a fight
Sandra, If you tell Owlbear I am with you he should join our side, Kroop should not be too hard to win over either, after loosing a game of cards to Captain Harrigan he has basically been his slave. Grok may be a bit harder to crack but has never been a fan of Scourge so may be persuaded to our side especially if overed something valuable in return.
When eploring the island there are two routs you can take, you can walk along the shore or press inland. If you chose to press inland there is a tall rocky point near the center that can be used as a reference. The jungle is thick and it may be easy to get lost inside but if someone climbs a tree they should always be able to see the rocky point.
Noro was rather quiet during the planning, she knows she intends to eliminate scourge and Plugg. but she really does not know much of the rest of the crew.
snaking around just wasn't her way.
Don't know much of anyone really, Keep to myshelf moshtly. but if you need a strong fisht, then I'm your gal. jusht point me at who needsh clobbering and shtay outta my way.
Suny shades her eyes with a hand as he looks up at Kyranda in her tree perch.
"A path? D'ye think it were made by critters? Or does it maybe have tha' lookin' of peoples?" She calls up.
Arjuns elects to stay by the coast, wanting to avoid being possibly delayed by a search of the interior of the island and missing the opportunity to reach the ship at night.
Suny skips and bounces around, "D'ye see tha' start of tha' path!" She calls up to Kyranda, "Where's th'a nearest place ta' join up with it!"
She glances towards Arjun...but is distracted and more interested in the path Kyranda's pointed out.
