Murder on the throaty mermaid (Inactive)

Game Master GM Sapphire Fox

Kyunjiro, you are still on the main deck, not in any cabin

Oh, it looked walled off and that's why I thought that

As the Captain and First Mate show their true colors, Sebastian takes a moment to study Thanzeril before he attacks with his Elven Curved Blade.

ECB + Studied: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 6 + 2 = 10

Note Captain had nothing to do with this, this is completely on the First Mate and the bodyguard Thanzeril

~~round 2~~
Malvic
Thanzerin
Sebastion
Seidr
Kyunjiro

I got Thanzeril confused for the Captain, my apologies.

After the first enemy falls Malvic scoffs and quickly moves into position while attempting to demoralize the foe.

Standard: Demoralize and Movement.

"Do you see what happened to the other fool? You won't fare better."

Intimidate: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

Already Shaken

Malvic tries to demoralize the already Demoralized and Frightened bodyguard but it doesn't seem to work

Thanzeril unable to get away more then a 5' step does so

~~round 2~~
Malvic
Thanzerin
Sebastion
Seidr
Kyunjiro

Sebastian takes another swing at his studied target.

ECB + Studied: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 2 = 14

While frightened did Thanzeril provoke any Opportunity Attacks? I.e. did he actually move anywhere to flee?

Seidr sadly he could only move 5' and didn't provoke at all

Seidr quickens the life force flowing through her comrades. Bless

Kyunjiro steps forward and attacks Thanzeril!

attack(bless): 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 1 = 9
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Kyunjiro's anger is too great, and he swing his blade as hard as he can, missing by a mile.

Kyunjiro growls in anger.

this poor poor fool, Malvic put him out of his misery

~~round 3~~
Malvic
Thanzerin
Sebastion
Seidr
Kyunjiro

Spellcombat: Spellstrike (Frostbite) and Whip Attack.

Black Blade (Whip): 1d20 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 + 4 + 2 + 1 - 2 = 16
Damage: 1d3 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 5
Frostbite Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
One Charge Remaining.

Black Blade (Whip): 1d20 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 + 4 + 2 + 1 - 2 = 26
Damage: 1d3 + 1 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 + 2 + 1 = 6
Frostbite Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
All Charges Expended.

Malvic mimics his routine from earlier casting a spell to quickly coat his whip in jagged ice before striking out at the remaining enemy.

"How dare you try to ruin this opportunity to increase relations with the Mordant Spire! You will pay for it."

Malvic Drops Thanzeril with little ease

~~End of Combat~~

Captain Veane comes from below deck with a surprised look on his face. He asks worriedly "Why have you attacked my First Mate and Thanzeril?"

upon explaining the circumstances of the attack, and evidence you had collected, the Captain thanks you for your efforts and reassures you all that he no longer holds you personally Responsible for the murder of Sephirel. He informs you that if you need your wounds tended to he will have his crew take care of it with no charge.

In the morning two days following the squall and the confrontation with Sephriel’s killers, the Throaty Mermaid arrives at the Mordant Spire as planned. An enormous, extravagant elven galleon meets the smugglers’ vessel a mile from the shore, sending a smaller boat between the ships as an envoy. Captain Veane explains the events of the journey since Magnimar to the small band of masked elves who come aboard. They nod solemnly, and seem unusually calm given the cold-blooded murder of one of their diplomats. As Veane ends his story, another figure climbs over the ship’s rail onto the deck, Sephriel. He explains to the captain and you all that he never leaves the Mordant Spire for human lands without
ensuring that a clone awaits him in safekeeping. He thanks everyone for hunting down and uncovering his murderer and says that he now has a better idea of who the Mordant Spire’s enemies are and who can be trusted.

After a lavish elven meal for the entire crew and the Mordant Spire envoys, Sephriel and his retinue depart for their island home, and the Throaty Mermaid sets sail for Riddleport, where you will catch passage back to Absalom.
