Logan:
...a spot of slippery algae on the rope caught Logan by surprise, and he tumbled into the water with a splash...
The two thugs onboard the Blue Nixie turn at the sound of the splash...
Angati:
Angati pointed at the water right under the guards to this side of the boat "What is that shade ? Is that a manta ray ?"
Kassius:
"Perhaps my lady. You two up there, have you seen any sign of predators in the waters around here?" He asks, sweeping his eyes around as if looking for underwater foes and drawing out his bow.
Both the men turn their attention back to the port side of the boat.
"Manta ray?!" cries the thug who had been cursing at Rodolfo.
"Where?" he says, peering at the surface.
There is the sound of feet on the deck, and a third thug joins the men on the port side.
"Don't beleave that old garbage. There ain't no manta rays in the harbour." The newly arrived beared thug looks up and makes eye contact with Angati. His lips soundlessly spell out the words
"oh frac me" as a look of recognition enters both of their eyes. This thug is the one that got away from the dressmakers yesterday morning, after jumping out of the first floor window thanks to the oracle's fear spell.
"It's that witch that got me yesterday! Shoot her! Shoot her in the head!" Marek brings his crossbow down to point at Angati and the other two thugs follow.
Thug 3 - aka Marek. I always intended to recycle him on the Blue Nixie since he is one of Vark's posse
Alohan:
... Alohan catapulted himself onto the deck, vaguely aware Logan wasn't beside him. The heat inside began to bubble -his inner pele. He had hoped the others were in position because things were about to become very violent.
Alohan sees three thugs with their backs to him thanks to the rest of the party's distraction.
OOC: I think I flipped the positions of the gondola and swimmers in the map, but never mind. Also, Alohan is actually one square up and onboard the boat. THe newest thug is just 20' away.
