Zagathoth hears the two sharks "talking" to each other as they dine... Shark-talk: Where'd Larry go off to? ... NOM! NOM! NOM!... I don't know, I guess he had somewheres to be?? ... As soon as this little moth or whatnot started dancing, he swam away with a smug look on his chomper... NOM! NOM! NOM! ... This snake's too chewy... How's the green guy taste?
One of the megalodons goes for Zagathoth 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (16) + 17 = 33 chomps for 4d10 + 15 ⇒ (8, 5, 4, 8) + 15 = 40 damage! It tries to hold Zag in its mouth, but the magic of Crabpincer prevents the orc brawler from being grappled! A second megalodon attacks Cobra Johann 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (14) + 17 = 31 dealing 4d10 + 15 ⇒ (8, 6, 2, 1) + 15 = 32 damage! It attempts to grab the cobra in its mouth 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (20) + 29 = 49 and it does! Johann is grappled in the monster's jaws! The third would have eaten Mwikali had Algoral not charmed it away...

Two of the megalodon sharks are ensnared in the psychic duel, but one resists, driven by pure primal, physical hunger and bloodlust...
Sated for the moment by their feast on ten sailors from Cordova at the wreck of the Alanqilis, the three monster megalodons swim lazily after the scent trail of blood left by the weapons of the Knights Champions... They react with alarm when the Sea Serpent of Atlantis creeps up out of the gloom on their tail!
Catching one of the sailors jostled out of the scanty cover the wreck provides by his terrified fellows in its monstrous jaws, a megalodon saws the poor Spaniard in half at the waste with its thrashing dagger like teeth, flooding the water with more of the intoxicating blood that drives the giant killing machines into a primal feeding frenzy! Smashing the Alanqilis like battering rams destroying a gate, the frenzied dire sharks are little deterred by the desperate sword thrusts and trident jabs of the terrified crewman, and a bloody slaughter ensues... The Champions are too far away to hear the dying screams underwater of their doomed crew, or to see the expanding cloud of crimson blood flooding outward from the wreck of the Alanqilis...
As the Champions are exploring the flooded temple of Poseidon, three huge megalodon sharks begin to circle the wreck of the Alanqilis, where ten frightened Spaniard sailors are staying with the ship... The water elemental guardian long gone, the men face the monster sharks alone, using the wreck as cover as best they can against the giant predators! |
