Imbukar contacts the captain.
** spoiler omitted **
A moment later, Captain Teach opens the door to his cabin, just after the violin player screams out his epitaph. He returns the greeting: "By my black beard, the only people dying tonight will be by my hand!"
Calendir moves below deck, bow leading the way, and Lagash close on his heels.
** spoiler omitted **
Imbukar reporting in. I am outside the cabin looking in the window. Niles is here. He looks dead. Lots of blood. No sign of the gnome.
Numair rolls out of bed with Sandstorm in hand, not quite yet awake as Elen pounds on his door. He blinks away the dream desert and opens the door.
"Who's dead?" he asks, his usually carefree demeanor dispelled by the serious circumstances.

"I don't know, my friend, just that the imp was able to detect a death within Shamil's cabin, you know, that gnome who was hitting on everything in pants. It was, apparently, very sudden. Did you hear its voice as you were sleeping? We need to check out her cabin. I see you're armored, why don't you and Ruul go first?"
Elen contorts her wrist oddly and suddenly a wand springs out into her hand. She taps Ruul on the chest saying, "Impervius!" She waits for the others to move forward ahead of her.
Ruul spots Digory with the dagger in hand and murder in his eyes. A deep growl rises from his chest. He shifts his hulking form to cover Lavinia.
"Put it down."

Both are immediately shaken by your...um, display. Digory drops his dagger on the floor and Shamil starts muttering. Finally, you hear her scream, "Screw the Harbinger, I want him!" As you hear more screaming from down the hall, Lavinia slaps your chest hard with the palm of her hand and says, "Impervious!" You feel your fur flatten as a slightly shimmering field of force surrounds you, like a glove.
Digory continues to just glare at the minotaur's....thing just hanging there. It's ridiculous! He's getting paid to deal with this? Hearing Roondar down the hall finally snaps him back to the current moment.
"This is for the Harbinger, you foul creature." Digory takes a swing, aiming for Ruul's manhood, after pulling out his other dagger.
The penalty is for the 'called' shot.
Her elfin eyes flashing with anger, Elen shouts "Sove!" at Shamil, fixing her arcane powers on the gnome.
Shamil finds herself uncontrollably drooling. She knows what she was brought here to do, but staring at the mountain of beef is too much for her. By instinct, she finds her blade in her hand, but she is dumbfounded to know what to do with it.

Shamil slumps to the floor, dreams of riding a minotaur are the last thoughts she has.
Roondar begins playing, seeing the the two idiots need the encouragement. Engorged or not, the minotaur must go down, the Harbinger commands it! He only gets a few bars in however, before two arrows hit him dead center. He stops playing, unable to hold on to his violin. He scrambles back into his room to try and recover.
I move forward to attack the man that shot at me, dagger out.
Elen ducks back into her room (5 ft step) and reaches into her haversack, instantly coming up with a length of rope from her deluxe dungeoneering kit.
Thugs 2 and 3 hold action, guarding against the captain this round.
Ally points at the thug who attacked Calendir and says in a voice like pealing bells:
You wake up to the sound of a knock. In your sleep haze, you first wonder why someone is knocking on your door at this ungodly hour. Then you realize that the knock is coming from down the hall. You then hear a click, likely a door closing. Then a couple more clicks after that.
Kallistiel stretches languidly before frowning at where the noise came from. I need to change rooms. The damned animals next door, rutting like savages. It took me forever to fall asleep, and now they going at it again? Perhaps I should invite Digory over tomorrow night.
She gets up, her shift falling across her thighs as she grabs her rapier moving to smash the but of it against the wall. She stops at the faint brush of words against her mind and hearing the shouted conversations outside, and instead moves to the door and opens it quickly, her rapier ready.
She sees the gnome standing in her doorway looking down the hall, and Digory standing further down, a dagger on the floor by him, another in his hand.
Kallistiel shifts her stance, her blade ready, but blinks as the gnome collapses, asleep.
"So Digory, you go on a late night stroll and instead of visiting me for a nightcap, you decide to chat up the animal? I thought better of you."
Macavity continues to survey the sky, shore, river, and topside of the boat. He wonders how he would escape the passenger deck besides the stairs and hold hole.

Numair trusts in Elen's arcane power and waits as she hexes the gnome. He moves up the hallway, making eye contact with Kallistiel. I'm going to keep him from getting away. Trap him here in this corridor. As he approaches Digory, his free hand gestures and Sandstorm takes on a lustrous silvery hue. No sooner done casting, he feints at Digory's face and the lustrous sheen discharges with a silver flash. Then he dances past Digory, drawing out his battle flag as he does so.
Angered by the mans attempted attack on her paramour's manhood, Lavinia leans around Ruul's massive form to fling a bolt of energy from the palm of her hand towards Digory.
In ducking around cover , you misjudged where the assailant would be and your spell goes over his shoulder.
The blinding effect of your spell does affect him, causing him to misstep and instead of taking another swing at Ruul, he effectively bounces off of him. "Oof!"

Digory is blinded by Sandstorm, before Lavinia gets her spell off, further making things bad for the foe. He attempts to right himself, but all he does is bounce off of Ruul. "Oof!" is all you hear as you attempt to move past him, his flailing causes you to bounce back to your previous position .

Imbukar was looking into the window of the cabin where the first mate persished. Put him at I 0. And Azaranut had flown to Where Madavity was in the first round after the warning from Imbukar. So place him at D 0. If LM is not ok with this placement the Wizard still has movement enough, from fly, to get to Macavity and still cast his spell below.
Reaching for Macavity the wizard explains The fight is below. Come with me.
He casts Dimension Door to move both himself and Macavity one deck directly below and into the captain's cabin.
Azaraunt is now in D 5 and, if Macavity comes with him willingly, or fails a DC 22 Will save, is in D 6.
Imbukar, at the window of the cabin casts Open/Close on the window. (This would open a latch but not a lock). If the window opens he will fly in using stealth and have a look around.

Macavity fails to resist Azaraunt's spell. "No!"
Macavity appears next to the captain with his sword out finishing his exclamation. He says "Good evening, captain. We are not your enemies. I suspect that the three latest passengers are.
And quickly to the Azaraunt, "Wizard, now the only person topside is the sailor in the pilothouse. No one is protecting him or watching the top of the stairs. If all three of the new passengers are threats, certainly the captain and the seven of our group are plenty to overcome them.

"Um..what's going on here?"The human starts to look around, as if he had never seen a boat before.
He cries out as he buries his dagger deep into his own thigh, snapping him out of his confusion

As Azaruant looks around the room, the Captain looks at you, trying to size you up. He knows that there is at least one foe planted outside his door and he can see down the hall where there is more.
"Well then, the sailor will take care of himself. Let's take care of these traitorous dastards!"
