Seeing how much of a mess Pip is making on that deck, Oso steps in behind and heals him.
Casting on the defensive,=21, Healing (burning searing light)=29pts
Stiggy's go:
The dwarf staggers out from below, roaring, "Which fecking git started a foight wee oot ma ax!"
He slashes into the front of pigbugtaur for all he is worth.
"Feck! and double feck again." He rages.
Graaaaaah!
The bugpigbear takes an awesome blow.
The owl shreds Oso, he takes 10 more h.p.
The kongamato in the burning building winks out of sight with a gesture; the one that was fighting Elgan quaffs a potion.
Mongo wails on Stiggy once out of two swings; 22 h.p. in damage.
ROUND 4!!!
Oh and here in round 4, Oso's able to cure on Pip.
"YAAAAAHHH!" *chop*slice*bite*rend*destroy*
Stig keeps whaling on the bearpigbug.
Altai fires off more fiery blasts, this time at the potion-quaffing kongamato.
Jeez what a day at work.....
Gittik and Stiggy lay into the bugbeartaur, and Gittik comes up with it's tongue in his hobbit teeth as the thing falls under their dual steel onslaught.
The kongamato only seems a little bit affected by the two scorching rays; what should've fried him to a crusty crisp only singed him a little bit...
Riese, Pip, Elgan and Beldan left to attack; there's the owl, the kongamato that's about 30-50 feet away from everybody, and another kongamato that just became unseeable in the big building.
There's a lot of activity now; everybody's awake. The tiny stormcloud continues to drench the building. You can see up to to the north, on the walkway that branches east, a group of goblins rounding the bend; maybe 10 or 15 of the little fiends, squinting in the dawning sunlight or wearing cowls to protect from the sunlight.
And....by my reckoning...
Gittik's taken 24 damage, Beldan took 15, Altai took 18, Elgan took 7, Pip's back to max, Oso's taken 35, and Stiggy took.....22 h.p. damage.
Pip launches a Glitterdust at the disappearing batboy.
Riese sees the group of gobbos rounding the corner, just looking for a fireball, and he happily obliges.
In goblin he yells to them- "Welcome to the party boys! Imbelia Pyrrok de'flar!!!"
8d6=31 fireball, DC19 reflex for half, trying to get as many of the gobbos in the 20'radius as possible.
Riese flat out kills 5 of them; the others, though living, seem to believe discretion to be the better part of valor and turn tail.
Pip can reach the invisible kongamato with a glitterdust; he's in the building, behind a mostly burnt out wall that was crashed through by the pigbugbear.
Pip can reach the invisible kongamato with a glitterdust;
Pip strums Lucille
"You can't hide,
Your batty eyes.
And your spell,
Is a thin disguise.
I thought by now,
You'd realize.
There ain't no way
To hide your batty eyes."
Now there's a golden, glittery kongamato there...he doesn't seem blind though...
Their watching you! Clap, clap!
I feel like I've been rickrolled.
Have to listen to Mastodon to level my karma.
Elgan and Beldan up to bat.
Beldan takes out and quaffs a potion of CLW.
“Nobody go in the water,” he comments, looking about for enemies.
foe check.....two kongamatos and a giant owl;
Elgan up to bat.
I remember the good old days, when you could throw a bag of flour at an invisible guy....
I remember the good old days, when you could throw a bag of flour at an invisible guy....
ELgan-hawk wheels around, and dives at the kucoo-munga batdude that was whaling on him. as he flashes by the batguy, he screeches in avian,...
'No more mister nice hawk!'
He flashes by the bat without stopping, slashing him cruelly with his talons as he does so,...
You rake him, and end up about 20 feet past him.
He flies after ye, and bashes ye wi his warhammer; 7 damage.
The Owl hits Oso twice, once critical. He's at negative 6; blood pumping out of his shredded neck in pulsing gouts.
The kongamato hits Stiggy and Gittik with scorching rays.
Stigg takes 15; Gittik takes 17.
CHARACTERS' ATTACK!!!
Oso's bleeding out; can't do much.
Ouch!
Pip's got a giant owl in his face and a bleeding out buddy next to him.
Stiggy's right behind the owl.
The wizard kongamato is in the building still, and the other kongamato is in the air, meleeing with Elganhawk, some 40 feet away from everybody else.
There's more crowding coming on as everybody wakens. There's a rotund man hovering a ways off in a golden throne; a large, jaundiced man dressed in Sea Prince finery and with a qetzal bird on his shoulder.
He seems to be filled with a wicked mirth.
Ouch!
YAHOO!!!!
That bugbear is still alive?
Naah, he's dead meat. Tenser's sniffing him for giblets.
Stiggy swings: 1d20+7=19, 1d20+2=11
There's a giant owl that just pwned Oso right next to ye.
The owl is slapped in half by the mighty dwarf; it falls in two pieces in the water....you swear you see the pieces yanked under; they don't sink.
Gittik flies over to the sparkly kongamato and starts carving.
Frustrated by the ineffectiveness of his fire spells, Altai switches tactics.
That's that. Gittik comes up with the kongamato's still-screaming head on his scimitar, and the magic missile barrage eliminates the other one...END OF COMBAT.
In the building, Gittik sees some big kegs of liquor, some sleeping pallets, and a snoring dwarf (who apparently was passed out and missed the fight....)
scnok schnok....zzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!
"YESSSS! Get their bodies over here! We'll make sure they're dead." Altai does a little victory dance on the forecastle before turning to Beldan. "Um, you said there was something in the water?"

"YESSSS! Get their bodies over here! We'll make sure they're dead." Altai does a little victory dance on the forecastle before turning to Beldan. "Um, you said there was something in the water?"
Oso makes a choking noise...
Oh; looks like everybody leveled up, from looking at Beldan's counting. Altai, I know you're behind somewhat from making magic items; you could prolly level anyway's while we're delayed for leveling a few days; no biggie.
The man in the golden throne hovers down over the boardwalk, surveying the carnage. He's laughing the whole time, then he seems to look at the Hellwind; is for a moment shaken.....levitates his chair over to port where the name is written, and then comes back around.
Two men approach near him on the boardwalk; one is an olman warrior; looks late thirties and chiseled of wood; the other can't be twenty; golden curly hair and a golden breastplate and an insipidly haughty look on his face.
The giant throned grubworm of a man speaks; it seems painfully; "how did you come by thissss ship?" He coughs into a handkerchief for an overly long time.
spot d.c. 10
A crowd is gathered, though seems to hang back; some of them saw Riese's fireball at the goblins a while back.
Oso makes a choking noise...
As for spells, I'd like to nominate:
Level 4: Confusion, Phantasmal killer
Level 3: Clairaudience/Clairvoyance, Dispel magic

Just finished leveling. I rolled 2 hp, put skill points in the usual - and got 2 ranks in Bluff, as I was thinking about the Malconvoker from Complete champion. It'll be a few levels before I qualify, but still...
My new spells are Dimension door and Enervation.
scnok schnok....zzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!
Oh; looks like everybody leveled up, from looking at Beldan's counting.
When Oso wakes, he summons the healing energy to help himself and the others.
"Who hit me, was it that pussie kongamato." He wipes the blood off his face.
