[PbP GD VIII] PFS Mod: Ruby Phoenix Tournament (levels 10-12) [GM Uktar] (Inactive)

Game Master Uktar

Mal has a moment of weakness and shys away from the one in red. He instead continues his flurry of punches on the man in green, after calling on Torag to steel his nerves.

Fervor remove fear, haste boots, full attack

speed 40 ft. - Boots of Striding and Springing

Jeras takes out his potion of fly just in case.

[dice=init]1d20+9

Jeras drinks that potion of fly and flies away. While flying he pulls his daggers out.

Flora is able to ignore the Hold Person that was thrown her way by the mage, and with his second blow, Mal finishes off the green-cloaked warrior, who slumps down onto the surface of the water, unconscious. Perhaps the tide has started to turn.

Risha hesitates, reluctant to close with Mal. She's clearly weighing her options.

Mal could still use 5' step, but it did take full round attack to finish fighter. I'm assuming you were doing nonlethal dmg. Let me know if I'm in error, and/or if you continued to pummel him further into unconsciousness.

Current init order. BOLD may act.
Mal 25 dmg, Shaken 5 rounds, Inspire Greatness ;

Jeras 50dmg, (intending to use potion of fly, unless circumstances change)

Dragon

Mal, emboldened by Torag, steps closer to red.

temp hp: 2d10 + 6 ⇒ (6, 5) + 6 = 17

same 36 AC (4 higher vs melee), 10’ reach. Yes all non lethal.

Flora fires a blast of entangling vines at the dragon. And then moves back.

Wood Blast: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 20 Damage: 5d6 + 18 ⇒ (1, 6, 3, 6, 6) + 18 = 40 On a hit, DC 17 Reflex or entangled.

Apparently I should just stop trying to attack the dragon. Roller refuses to give me anything over a 5 to hit.

CMD vs grapple is now 32 since I no longer have the grappled condition.

Flora, don't you have a touch-attack blast?
"Mal, we need to help Flora!"

Sorry Mal, I think they need Daathiel's help more than you do. Inspire Greatness has only a 30' range, so those temp HP go away for now - but you should be able to withstand a round and then come join us.

Daathiel double moves to get closer to Flora, drawing his wand of Shield as he moves.

Mal replies," Little busy, lots to fight over here, go help Flora with that cowardly dragon!"

I was trying to position Mal such that its more difficult for the other enemies to engage the rest of our party.

Daathiel bravely closes with the dragon with only a wand of shield in hand.

Flora's blast is thwarted again by the thick hide of the dragon, who cackles in delight.

The half-orc laughs out loud in pure joy then lunges and attacks Mal three times before taking a 5' step back, frustrated by the inefficacy of his attacks...not that he seems the sort to know the meaning of the word inefficacy.
With lunge and reach, those attacks came from 15' away--I believe he's out of reach of your AoOs for the misses, Mal, but let me know if I'm in error.

Risha lets out a frustrated snort then takes a 5' step and fires a couple more arrows at the blinking bard. Just as one of the arrows is about to strike the bard, Daathiel blinks into the ethereal realm and the arrow passes harmlessly through.

When Jeras downs his potion the dragon seizes upon the opportunity and bites another large hunk out of Jeras. The Rogue flees, relieved to discover the dragon does not appear to have combat reflexes...or it simply chose not to attack the rogue as he fled.

The mage in the pink robes unleashes an elemental blast of fire that bursts between Jeras and Flora, engulfing them in flames. Jeras is able to evade the damage, while Flora is able to mitigate the damage a bit by ducking under some nearby tentacles. The black tentacles once again close on Flora, but the halfling is just to slick and slides free.

The dragon eyes the halfling hungrily, but decides it's not worth potentially having to deal with the black tentacles so it flies in pursuit of Jeras and tries to bite another chunk out of his hide, but his eagerness to finish his prey leads his attack slightly astray...

Helpful GM reminder: Jeras Remember that Withdraw is a thing...
Sorry for rolling your reflex saves, Flora and Jeras, but the elemental blast could've dropped you, so it has too much bearing on party actions to be left hanging. But you both succeeded on the save...

Flora leaves the tentacles and dives under the water.

double move, trying to get to a depth of about 10 feet using my swim speed.

Mal ignores the opening from red’s lunge to instead threaten the caster in pink,” You should tend to the threats nearby.”

Mal flys through red’s reach and as he closes makes a single uppercut against pink.

Fly 40’, provoking from red (AC 32 at time aoo is resolved), standard action fighting defensively attack on pink. Swift fervor divine favor before movement. Same AC36 (+4 melee) after attack on pink.

Spell Penetration: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
Fort DC 17 save for half and to avoid being dazed 1 round.

The half-orc's very Large greatsword cuts a vicious slash across Mal's back as he flies by, though it doesn't strike anything vital. Mal's uppercut delivers a stunning blow to the caster, though Mal notices that punching the mage is like punching a boulder.

The dragon hisses in anger at Daathiel's auditorial assault, though the creature does not seemed dazed by the spell.

Flora beats a hasty retreat below the surface of the water.

The Red Priest whirls his greatsword attacking Mal, but his blows can't seem to land, missing all 3 strikes. At RIsha's urging, the half-orc does take a 5' step to the southeast.
I believe you have 3 AoOs coming? if you're in the right style stance?

Risha then uses the small boat as cover to move into flank on Mal, though she spends her entire time just getting into position, pulling out two short swords as she goes, her shortbow bobbing on the waves where she dropped it.

I take “ though it doesn't strike anything vital. “ as an unconfirmed crit. If so, 33 damage on an aoo... I’m sure glad that didn’t confirm on me because that could have dropped Mal.

AoO (crit 19-20), divine favor, haste: 1d20 + 22 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 22 + 2 + 1 = 33 Damage: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 12 + 2 + 5 = 21

Mal additionally uses an immediate action to take another aoo if the first one hits per Snake Fang.
AoO (crit 19-20), divine favor, haste: 1d20 + 22 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 22 + 2 + 1 = 31 Damage: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 2 + 5 = 22

I will take Daathiel advice and use Acrobatics to move away. I will take a single move away and use Total Defense.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (16) + 27 = 43

Jeras acrobatically tries to avoid Dragons attack and flies away.

Mal abuses the cleric for the temerity of attempting to hit him, landing 4 blows in response to his assault. The cleric's skin seems as tough as the mage's, and some of the damage seems to be absorbed by magic before Mal's blows are only being partially thwarted by the stone-like skin.
Temp HP

Jeras tumbles away, trying to put distance between himself and the dragon.

The dragon flies up to Daathiel and unleashes a line of acidic briny water at him and the rogue.
Reflex save, Jeras for no damage, Daathiel for 1/4 dmg. Damage rolled=50, so either 20 or 7 on Daathiel (after resistance)

FYI: Module calls out sandy bottom here, 20' deep. So with lowlight vision, Flora can see the bottom and the dragon (and can be seen herself, of course.) No murky water here.

Mal, should those attacks have been reduced by 2 for fighting defensively?

Ref: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (17) + 21 = 38

Mals attack line includes fighting defensively because I always choose to do so. [10 (BAB)+8(Dex)+1 (competence)+ 3 (Enhacement)+1 (Swashbuckler weapon training)-1 (Fighting Defensively)+ 2 (luck, divine favor) +1 haste (untyped)]. If the half-orcs skin was also as hard as a stone, I wouldn't have used the immediate action attack in addition, so probably +12 hp and 10 back on the stoneskin. The main reason being that I'll need extra damage to get past DR, which I can only get via swift action activation of Bane Baldric.

Mal surveys at the enemies surrounding him with their rock hard skin and he grimaces a bit. He continues to turn around and glance at the his allies surrounding the dragon and thinks Sure hope its going better over there. Well, time for maximum effort here. If this doesn't go well, I may end up as fish food. An ornate velvet sash prominently slung across Mal's chest begins to glow, as he mutters a small curse against the humans surrounding him. Half-orc, Half-elf, and Human all count as human, nova time. Swift Action: Bane Humans

He finishes turning as his arm lands square in Risha's face, hoping to stun her. He continues his flurry on the half-elf, hoping to down her before she can cast another spell. After the flurry, his carpet and him float 5' diagonally up and to the south east, hoping to avoid a flank if Risha is unphased by the attack and lacks the ability to fly herself.
FoB1 (crit 19-20), stunning fist (DC20),Divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 32 Damage, divine favor, bane, precision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (6, 4) + 5 = 37
FoB2 (crit 19-20),Divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 30 Damage, divine favor, bane, precision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (1, 2) + 5 = 25
FoB3 (crit 19-20),Divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 15 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 15 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 26 Damage, divine favor, bane, precision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (3, 4) + 5 = 34
Haste (crit 19-20),Divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 36 Damage, divine favor, bane, precision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (4, 5) + 5 = 36

assuming those hit, 37 damage to Risha (or probably 27 and 10 her stoneskin) and DC 20 fort save or stunned, dropping her weapons, and 65 to the half-elf (and 30 more to the stoneskin). Same 36 AC (/+4 vs melee that falls if an attack is between 36 and 39, which additionally provokes).

@Mal, don't forget, you got a CL15 potion of Stoneskin for breaking those things in that challenge earlier.

Double-checked, and Daathiel's remaining spells are:
2 1st, 2 2nd, 2 3rd (soon to be 1), and 1 4th. Plus the Bonded item spell. The spells used today are:
1st (7): EPS, Vanish, Heightened, Heightened, Heightened
2nd (7): Heroism, Heroism, Heroism, Mirror Image, Acute Senses
3rd (5): Haste, Haste, Haste (Hok Fong fight, twice in the first dragon fight).
4th (4): Echolocation, Echolocation, Grand Destiny

Using Probable Path (1/day) on the Reflex save.
Reflex, Probable Path, Heroism, Naturalist, Shaken: 10 + 14 + 2 + 3 - 2 = 27

Daathiel dodges most of the acid, then casts a spell defensively. Haste on himself, Jeras, and Flora.
Concentration DC 21: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 20
Using my Folio reroll on that.
Concentration DC 21: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 22

He starts to move away. Will wait for the result of the dragon's AOO before doing the rest of his movement.
AC 23 and Blinking. Flora, not quite done here yet, hold off until I finish this turn...

While the rogue shakes off Mal's attempt to stun her, Mal finds some satisfaction in that Risha does not appear to have stoneskin. Bolstered by the notion that not all his enemies have stony flesh, he uses all three of his remaining blows to subdue the mage.

Daathiel hastens himself, Flora and Jeras, then provokes an attack of opportunity from the dragon, who takes a deep bite out of the bard.

fort save: 1d20 ⇒ 20

Daathiel circles around the dragon, moving up 5' and drawing a dagger. He shouts, "Let him have it! Everything you got!"

@Flora, hit him with as big a blast as you can. I will use Gallant Inspiration on a miss. You are at +1 Haste, +3 Insight (Bardic Performance).
@Jeras, when your turn comes around, a 5' step and Hasted full attack should do 150+ damage. You are at +6 over normal with Haste +1, Bardic +3, and Flanking +2. I would use Debilitating Injury on your first hit to lower the dragon's AC against you (effectively another +6 to hit), and on your last attack to cut its movement in half should it stil be alive. If you miss any attacks and I haven't used my immediate action already, I will use Gallant Inspiration on you.

Flora swims up 5' feet and let's the biggest blast she has go at the dragon.

Empowered Winter Blast
+haste, +insight +point blank -water

Winter Blast: 1d20 + 18 + 1 + 3 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 18 + 1 + 3 + 1 - 2 = 26 Damage: 10d6 + 23 + 1 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 6, 6, 5, 1, 1, 5, 6) + 23 + 1 = 60
Using Grave Treader's Inspiration boon to add a d6 to the attack roll.

Inspiration: 1d6 ⇒ 4

On a hit the attack deals 45 magic, piercing and 45 cold damage.

However, Flora now has 8 burn and has 63 hp and 80 nonlethal damage, so she goes unconscious.

Con (DC 10): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9 (well crap. Looks like I'm now at -1 hp with 80 nonlethal and will die next round if I'm not pulled out of the water.

Daathiel positions himself to best aid his fellow pathfinders. Flora moves toward the surface and unleashes another attack. At first, it looks like the hide of the beast is going to thwart yet another attack but she digs deep into the well of inspiration her previous adventures have given her and the blast manages to pierce its hide. With Grim satisdaction, Flora fades into unconsciousness and quickly begins to drown.

]Forgive the elder moment, but your piercing damage does count as magic for penetrating DR, right?

Risha calls out to her cleric friend, Wait a second." While the half-orc delays a moment, Risha scrambles aboard the small vessel, provoking an attack of opportunity from Mal, but positioning herself high enough to flank the monk, though it affords her just the one attack. Even with the additional bonus from flank, the rogue's attack fails.
That's 2 AoOs for you, Mal. Depending upon how they go will effect Red's actions.
Risha att: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Mal takes advantage of the two attacks on Risha.

My morning was unexpectedly busy. Assuming Risha is still conscious after the first aoo and does miss me, I’d reroll on the snake fang aoo.

RIsha drops unconscious when Mal kicks her in the face while she tries to climb up on the boat.

The cleric shakes his head in frustration. "No, no, NO! THis is going much too quickly. We must HONOR GORUM! The Battle must be long and glorious!" He takes a five-foot step and channels positive energy. Not only are some of his wounds healed, all 3 of his allies stir back into consciousness...and even Mal is healed a little. The cleric grins maniacally. "Much better!"

5d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 4, 1, 1) = 16
Mal, you still have your re-roll as well.

As far as the state of the field, are both of Risha's weapons lying beside her prone self in the boat? Green must have water breathing, since he was in the water for over 2 rounds and isn't dead, but I assume his weapon is down 20' now as well? Pink is probably just as dangerous as ever, since her weapons are not easy to disarm, but also looks to be prone on the boat? Good luck Jeras!

Jeras flies 5ft closer to the dragon and starts stabbing the beast.

"Take that!"

Debilitating Injury (Ex)
Disoriented: The target takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls. In addition, the target takes an additional –2 penalty on all attack rolls it makes against the rogue. At 10th level and 16th level, the penalty on attack rolls made against the rogue increases by –2 (to a total maximum of –8).

So as to whether or not Daathiel needed to use Gallant Inspiration:
First attack is a hit against AC 41 for 35 damage. Dragon has now taken 132 (Flora's blast does count as magic and piercing).
Second attack is a hit against AC 42. That is 38 damage if a 27 confirms the crit, or 26 if it doesn't (the Sneak Attack damage doesn't multiply). Dragon is at either 158 or 170 damage taken.
If the dragon is still up after that, Daathiel would use Gallant Inspiration on the third attack (which only hits AC 21).
Gallant Inspiration: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4 Another +4 to hit, maybe not enough.
But then there are two more attacks, hitting AC 30 for 31 damage, and AC 42 for 30 damage. Pretty sure that should do it.
The main question is if the first two attacks did it (so Daathiel didn't use Gallant Inspiration) or if the later attacks did it.

As far as the state of the field, are both of Risha's weapons lying beside her prone self in the boat? Green must have water breathing, since he was in the water for over 2 rounds and isn't dead, but I assume his weapon is down 20' now as well? Pink is probably just as dangerous as ever, since her weapons are not easy to disarm, but also looks to be prone on the boat? Good luck Jeras!

Risha indeed is prone and unarmed, with swords on the boat next to her. Green did not sink, in fact, he never touched the water at all, though he is prone, floating about an inch above the surface of the harbor. In fact, all of them do not appear to be touching the water whatsoever. Green's greataxe, on the other hand, is indeed at the bottom of the bay. And pink is prone as well. His sickle is also at the bottom of the bay (not that he used it, but he's obviously no longer a flank buddy)

@GM Thanks! That is pretty cool that he is floating above the water. I had thought the pink half-elf was female based on the earlier description. I sure hope that dragon went down from Jera's assault. Its amazing how disadvantagous the serial nature of the tournament (opponents who know not to let Jeras get flanking) has been to him, as he is extremely effective when he can full attack with one.

From further east of the ship, you spy a half-orc in full plate with a greatsword, and a female half-elf in no armor whatsoever.

Jeras steps in and commences the close work that is his bloody trade, unleashing a blur of attacks. With his first attack, his adamantine blade cuts away a few scales and exposes some flesh just beneath where its wing meets its torso. Seizing upon the opening, Jeras is able to bury his cold iron dagger deep enough into the dragon's flesh his hand disappears inside the dragon up to his wrist, though it quickly re-emerges as the dragon begins to fall to the water below, unconscious. Having just witnessed the cleric healing his compatriots, the rogue does not let up on his assault, intent on making certain this brine dragon will never again torment the people of Xielan Island. While his next blow doesn't penetrate the creature's hide, his final attacks elicit a rumbling death rattle from the beast before it splashes into the harbor and sinks into its watery grave.

1) I'm assuming Jeras would not want to let up on his attack, but if Jeras does want to stop after it goes below zero, just say so.
2) Daathiel, if he does continue his assault, I'll leave it you to decide if Daathiel would choose to use Gallant Inspiration on an attack against the unconscious dragon--Daathiel would know Jeras has a couple attacks left. Totally your choice on whether that's something he'd do.

No Gallant Inspiration on the later attacks, just for the sake of conserving spell slots.

Seeing the dragon drop, the remaining humanoid allies seem to settle into grim determination. The warrior in green stands up and pulls out a throwing axe. The female sorceress begins casting defensively, and she suddenly disappears.

Technically, she's out of reach of Mal at the moment, i.e. 15' away, but she's seen Mal fight with 15' reach, so she doesn't know that it's safe. And half-elf is indeed female; sorry about the confusion. Daathiel, you can use Jester's Jaunt to rescue Flora (see discussion for explanation). Flora, if indeed you're jaunted to shore, it'll be stabilization check, DC:11 or you drop to -2, etc.

Mal looks at the gorumite" To the end I guess. I can only hope if I end up in the drink you'll pull me out for having honored this battle." He thinks, not for the first time, I really should spend some time to learn about enemy spellcasting...

He once again calls upon his sash as a bane against humans and attacks. He starts with 2 strikes against gorumite, then makes one against the prone Risha who has recently awoken, and then finishes with a final strike against the half-orc.

FoB1 (crit 19-20),divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 34 Damage,divine favor, bane, prevision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (2, 1) + 5 = 26

FoB2 (crit 19-20),divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 34 Damage,divine favor, bane, prevision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (5, 4) + 5 = 38

FoB3 (crit 19-20),divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 15 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 15 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 27 Damage,divine favor, bane, prevision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (3, 3) + 5 = 30

Haste (crit 19-20),divine favor, bane, haste: 1d20 + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 20 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 29 Damage,divine favor, bane, prevision: 1d8 + 12 + 2 + 2 + 2d6 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 12 + 2 + 2 + (6, 3) + 5 = 38

so probably 30 to Risha, which should put her unconscious again, and 72 more to the half-orc (30 to stoneskin).

Daathiel casts Jester's Jaunt, plunges into the water with the dead or dying dragon, and manages to tap Flora, sending her safely to shore.

Edit: he ends his Performance, obviously.

Swim, Heroism, Shaken: 1d20 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 - 2 = 3

He himself is not so fortunate.

RNG hates us in this fight... well, at least Jeras got good rolls on that attack. Daathiel starts sinking. He can hold his breath, and get another Swim check next round to get back to the surface?

Jeras will not stop attacking.

The red-cloaked cleric of Gorum grunts with satisfaction as Mal continues to batter him. Risha looks up at the foot about to stomp her in the face and manages to sigh and mutter, "friggin' Pathfinders..." before Mal's kick knocks her back into unconsciousness.

Relieved at having saved Flora's life, Daathiel isn't quite prepared for the undertow caused by the sinking dragon, and is pulled just below the surface of the water.

Worst-case scenario, Daathiel fails another swim check, he'll be on the bottom and can walk for the shore. It's slow going, but he should be able to make it to shore well before he drowns. He makes swim check, he can then take to the air (using move action to swim, move action to get airborne. Swift action still available). Make sense?

The Gorumite nods to Mal and says, "As long as your friends hold off on assaulting me while I pull you out..." Then he attacks. He grunts with satisfaction as his first blow strikes home. Though it is well-placed, Mal is able to shift his body and avoid a more critical injury. the cleric's next two attacks do not strike the elusive monk...almost assuredly to the cleric's detriment.

Mal, I believe you're entitled to up to 3 AoOs here, because that second attack is in the crane wing window. Certainly you've got 2 coming.

Greatsword: 1d20 ⇒ 20dmg: 2d8 + 20 ⇒ (1, 6) + 20 = 27
Greatsword: 1d20 ⇒ 15dmg: 2d8 + 20 ⇒ (8, 6) + 20 = 34
Greatsword: 1d20 ⇒ 5dmg: 2d8 + 20 ⇒ (4, 7) + 20 = 31
Confirm?: 1d20 ⇒ 4dmg: 2d8 + 20 ⇒ (6, 8) + 20 = 34

I won't bot Flora's stabilization check, and if she has shenanigans that would lead to her having actions this round, just say so, Flora, and we can retrofix if necessary.

Mal responds with his attacks, leery when he makes his crane riposte, but hopeful it ends the battle.

The satisfied grin never fades from the half-orc cleric's face, even as Mal's first opportunistic strike knocks him unconscious.

To be clear, the pink token is on the map where you last saw her before she disappeared. Daathiel was too far away and too preoccupied with saving Flora to have been able to see the casting, so you can't be certain what she did.

You obviously didn't saw my post. I will kill the dragon.

"I need to help Mal! I hope that Flora is OK! "

Jeras flies towards the Green.

I am 5ft to short for a single move action and attack. So I will fly 45 ft to the west and 5ft up.

Jeras, You're hasted, so you could move up and get an attack (or charge for attack and gain +2 to hit and -2 to AC

Thank you GM!
Jeras flies to the Green and tries to stab him once.

+3 dagger adamantine - Haste: 1d20 + 20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 20 + 1 = 28
damage: 1d4 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Intent on the monk laying waste to his friends, the warrior in the green cloak turns at the last second and sees Jeras just as the rogue's dagger slides between his ribs, and the fighter slips back down to the tops of the waves, unconscious and bleeding.

The party tenses, awaiting another magical assault from the sorceress, but after a few seconds, nothing happens.

Still in combat, what do you do?

Daathiel manages to swim!
He reaches the surface and takes to the air, flying 60' towards Mal.

Double move, basically. One swimming and one flying. He has a 40' radius of Echolocation.

does red float above water like green did? If so Mal will make an active perception to try to find pink, if he didn’t Mal will feel honor bound to float down and try to lift Red’s head out of the water, since the Gorumite said he would do the same.

Jeras is ready to attack if Pink shows up.

Con: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

And we're out of initiative. With 3 of you in the air and on the lookout, the sorceress beats a hasty retreat--she's invisible and 120' away when Daathiel takes station (and in Air Elemental form), and she immediately bolts. So I'm unaware of any way you'd likely catch her. Feel free to pipe up if you have any ideas/want to try and pursue.

After a few more moments of prowling about, looking for the mage, the party finally relaxes a bit. Mal and Jeras maintain their vigilance while hovering near Flora while Daathiel uses his masterpiece to heal the party. You gather up the three unconscious bushwackers, all of whom float an inch above the waves, which Daathiel recognizes as likely the being the byproduct of the spell Water Walk. After stripping away all their gear and securing the prisoners, you board the vessel and find some sailors cowering in the hold, using Marthysan as a shield, dagger to his throat--though he's probably more in danger of being accidentally nicked by the shaking hand of the nervous sailor than if the sailor were trying to actually harm him. As soon as you guarantee you won't kill the sailors, they set Marthysan free, muttering how they were merely hired to sail the vessel to the mainland, and didn't know there was anything untoward going on until those cruel thugs showed up with their prisoner and demanded they set sail with the next tide, or the sailors would become fish food. They identify Risha and the fighter in the green cloak, named Darys, as the ones who hired them. The sailors offer to leave and never return to this "backwater island of stinkin' fishermen again."

handwaving healing: Daathiel has enough performance rounds left to take care of it no matter how bad the rolls...
What would you like to do with the sailors, and the three unconscious prisoners?
