Back on the deck of the ship, Logan scrambles back from the ooze, quickly downing a potion before preparing to return to the fight.

Logan takes a few steps back and heals himself (let's say no AoO because he landed far enough away).

OOC: BTW, the hydra has a reach of two so Celene is in a threatened square. Just as well she made the defensive casting check last round then!

<START OF OPPONENTS' ROUND FOUR>

Updated at start of monsters' turn

Since Logan has escaped its grasp, the ooze randomly chooses Kinstal as its next victim. A new tentacle forms out of the ooze, creeping up around the warrior's legs. Before he realises it the fighter is firmly held by the sticky tentacle up to his thighs and then he is swept off his feet and whammed from side to side against the gunnel, the mast, the decking... the damage is horrific (26 hp and grappled), but at least he is too heavy to fully lift off the deck.

OOC: Same deal as Logan, you can sudden it by doing 10 points of damage or try to escape.

The hydra tries the same trick as before... rearing up on the lower half of its body. This triggers an AoO from: Amella, sailor #8, Alohan & sailor #7. (But not Kassius as he is equipped with his bow).

The native does not waste the opportunity, and plunges the tip of his jade taiaha deep into the belly of the beast (10 hp). The first mate misses, but the two sailors hit doing substantial damage (10 hp in total).

The hydra's heads squeal and it comes crashing down on the side of the boat in agony. The ship lists even further to starboard than last time and again everybody is thrown off their feet and towards the water.

OOC: DC12 acrobatics check or move 2 squares left. And the monsters don't block you, you just slide right over them into the drink.  :D

Skald and sailor #8 fail to regain their feet in time (I am not wasting the MF on those guys now that we are limited to one a round), and both slide into the water to join the two crewmembers already there. The hydra's front claws rake along the deck as it struggle to hold its purchase on the ship, and there is a sound of snapping timber from below as it is clear that structural damage is taking place. Finally, the huge creature seems to weaken from the blood spurting out of the wounds on its chest and it fails to entirely maintain its grip, causing it to slip back a bit. This allows the ships keel to return to the water and the vessel to return to a 45° angle. Seawater pours out of the portholes on the lower decks as the ship rights itself.

The hydra appears to be close to death (2 hp remaining).

Sailor #6 swims forwards in the water, and manages to grab a rope hanging from the ship's dingy, be begins climbing up the rope hand over hand...

...and is suddenly ripped from it by the giant great white shark that burst out of the water below him.

The man doesn't even have time to scream before he is pulled beneath the waves. There is a second of thrashing and then the sea turns crimson.

A second dark fin bares down on sailor #4 who starts screaming.

Ever play that game 'the floor is an ocean full of sharks' when you were a kid? I'm looking forward to seeing the results of those DC12 acrobatics checks... :D

Logan easily keeps his feet, and charges to ooze, intent on ending the menace.  However, the rocking deck proves too much for the rogue, and he completely misses his attacks.

Celene slides down beneath the hydra but not quite off the ship. She reaches into herself one last time hoping to finish off the creature; with hopes that it isn't able to react to her fast enough to intervene. If the one of the many heads leaves Celene unmolested three motes of purple light flare into its belly tearing burning holes in the flesh and sending it sprawling off the Sea Wyvern.

Seeing that the Hydra was dead or close to dying, the Archon lantern dropped the cannon ball on top of the slime (off the ship), and teleported back to continue pestering with it's rays.

Angati, on her side, managed to keep her footing thanks to being next to the mast. She took the opportunity to tangle one of her arms around it in case more movement was coming, and concentrated on casting her next spell... this time, it was Kinstal that needed help liberating himself so.. she repeated the liberating spell on him.

Logan misses the ooze.

Celene slides in underneath the hydra as the deck tilts, but keeps her wits about her and casts magic missile right up unto its soft under belly. The hydra's eight heads hiss and then collapse onto the deck. The creature starts sliding back into the sea and the ship returns to its normal footing.

OOC: I couldn't be bothered working out if the hydra had an AoO left or not, so you probably got a bit lucky there.

The shinning lantern archon teleports straight up 50' with the cannonball anchor and then...

OOC: I'm using the falling objets rules:

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamema...les/#Falling_Objects

...and saying that he is dropping a small object from 30' above the slime and trying to hit its touch armour class. Since the range increment for dropping objects is 20', this attack is at -1 and I the archon's BAB is +2 and the archon doesn't have a dex bonus.

09:12, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 17 using 1d20+1.  Archon drops anchor.
09:13, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 9 using 2d6.  Anchor damage.

...the little archon takes careful aim, straining under the heavy weight (for it) of the cast iron anchor. Finally it lets go and the anchor speeds down into the middle of the ooze, punching out a big circle in the middle of the slime. Ka-SPLOOSH goes the seawater as it flies up from the middle of the hole like a small geyser (9 hp damage).

"Angati!" screams Alohan from his spot overlooking the body of the hydra. "Damn it, we be needing de anchor!"

OOC: Kassius and Kinstal still to play

OOC: The slime has 10 hp left...

Kassius just barely keeps his footing and takes careful aim. The hydra's bulk makes it an easy target, and his enhanced bow makes the arrows fly with incredible momentum, slamming into the beast's body time and again.

Kibeti does his part as well, clawing the ooze apart.

Kassius continues venting his fury on the corpse of the hydra as it slips into the sea, his arrows pounding into the bulk of the beast.

Kibeti goes berserk and jumps into the middle of the ooze, his claws randomly ripping things apart... it seems to work as the slime stops moving and the tentacle holding Kinstal becomes flaccid, letting the fighter return to his feet. The slime slow rips in two along the gunnel, with the part on the deck gently quivering like a dead jellyfish.

The action continues in the water as the men try to escape the great white sharks hunting them. Ropes are thrown over and the men start climbing up. Sailor #4 makes it up on deck okay, but one of the sharks catches Skald as he clambers up the rope, fixing its jaws around the half-elf's right leg (13 hp).

"Don't worry, I got him," yells out Urol. The gnome takes careful aim with his heavy crossbow and fires off the last bolt in the magazine - it catches the shark in one eye and it releases its prey. Urol drops his weapon and then pulls the wounded Skald up on deck (well, that last bit happens in the next round, but whatever).

The sea returns to a deceptive foggy tranquility as the sharks disappear.

A porthole in the stern of the ship snaps shut.

OOC: Congrats, another combat under your respective belts.

Are you going to heal up? And if yes, how?

Celene wrings some of the water from her dress as she stands up. She surveys the damage to the ship. She didn't know much about keeping a ship afloat but assumed if the hull's integrity had been compromised they'd be sinking by now.

The sorceress observed her friends and the crew next some of them were dead, others only injured, for a moment she almost called to Wee Jas out of pure reflex. She lamented that her powers of healing were gone if only for a moment. She approached Angati instead.

"We have a number injured. I have a wand we could use if you would rather conserve your magic." she said quietly. "I no longer have the power to heal..." she barely whispered.

Kinstal starts to flex all his muscles, preparing to burst forth from the Ooze's grasping tentacle,
"RRRAAAAGGH....whoa, whoaaaaaa!"

The Ooze's tentacle releases it grip on Kinstal as it dies and Kinstal is unceremoniously dropped to the deck.

Looking around the deck he notices that the hydra is also dead and sliding back into the sea.  Shrugging off his injury he looks around to see how he can help the others.

Logan looked around the chaos of the ship's deck.  "It'll be an easy journey," he half-whispered to himself.

What catches his attention, however, is the porthole slamming shut.  Another attempt at sabotage?  Without pausing to confer, Logan sprints below decks, trying to get to the interior cabin that contained the porthole as quickly as possible.

Seeing the fight was over, Kassius heads to the side of the ship. He thought that several sailors had gone overboard during the fight, and they would certainly need help. He needed some help himself, and called on his natural magic to heal the worst of his wounds as he looked around for a rope to help any who had fallen in.

17:24, Today: Kassius rolled 13 using 1d8+5. CLW on self.

HP: 25/37  AC 19 (FF=14, Touch=15),

Angati cleared up a space on the deck, where she'd have most of the light to check on the injured and try to heal them as she best could.

OOC: As I said, she'd go up to half her casting power... so mostly getting people out of death risk and maybe a little more.

OOC: Great, please go ahead and make the rolls for the healing.

Angati heals those that need it using some of her spells and then also the wand of cure light wounds (you might as well us it up, it is going to be pretty useless at high levels). Kassius, Kinstal and Celene stay on deck for the moment to help with this. Father Feres is unfortunately somewhere below decks and not available to help... no doubt he is tending to the many colonists that must have been injured during the fight.

Unfortunately, four of the sailors (#) on the Sea Wyvern are beyond help. Eaten, strangled and ripped apart they are dead and will n

Logan sprints down to the spot where the porthole was closed at the end of the battle - he knows the spot well - it is the galley.

When the thief kicks open the door to the little room, he finds two people inside. Shefton Rosk is backed into a corner, a meat cleaver in his hand held up in front of him and a wild look in his eyes. Father Feres is standing in the middle of the room with his back to Logan. The cleric is leaning against one of the galley tables, the palms of both his hands on the tabletop as though to steady himself.

"Stay away!" screams Shefton as he waves the cleaver around threateningly. "You stay away from me you hear!"

Father Feres groans, but makes no other response.

Angati concentrated on healing those she could, trying to deal with the most urgent first.

(Let me know how many would be left, if not too many, I'd use wand)

Logan 10
Kassius 12
Skald 13


After Angati's healing splurge...

Kinstal 1
Kassius 2

The fighter and the hunter have 1-2 points of damage each. Acceptable, so on with the show...

Logan draws his weapons.  "Both of you!  Stand down!  Shefton!  Drop the cleaver!  Father, turn around so I can see you!

Father Feres, his back still to Logan, grips the table edge and makes a series of low growls interspaced with some choked words. "Gggg... my stomach... what have you done to me you cur?" The cleric looks down at his belly.

Shefton glances at Logan. "Are you fracken crazy? I ain't fracken standing down! He's got some sort of plague or something!"

Father Feres makes a choking noise in the back of his throat. "Not...gggggggaaaah! ...plague...it was the.... ggggaaaaagh! ...the dates!"

"Oh, I wondered who was stealing them," says Shefton, lowering his cleaver a little. He chuckles. "Heh. I thought it was you Logan. You know, no honour among thieves and all that."

Father Feres finally turns around. The bottom of his shirt hangs open, revealing an unnaturally distended belly hanging over his belt. Within the stomach, underneath the skin, something can be seen to be moving around inside.

Father Feres clutches at his stomach and screams. A high pitched cry of agony that changes mid-way to a deep throated roar of rage and hunger. A series of jagged black spikes burst out of the back of his shirt and the hands that clutch the table sprout grey pustule tipped fur. The cleric turns around and opens out his hands for Logan's throat, all trace of the man who was once Father Feres totally gone.

OOC: Please toll for initiative Logan...  you get a +2 bonus since you have the drop on this guy.

11:11, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 12 using 1d20+6.  Savage Father Feres initiative.
11:12, Today: Dungeon Master rolled 14 using 1d20+6.  Shefton initiative.

"What? Me?! I don't have anything to do with this. There ain't know way that a couple of stolen dates could do this to him!"

Logan blocks the savage priest's clawed hand but the creature grabs his hand and bites him on the arm (8 hp). When the rogue kicks the savage man back, he has a chunk of Logan's flesh in his mouth. The cleric roars in delight.

OOC: You know the drill, make a DC14 fort save or contract savage fever. PS: No MF allowed since Angati doesn't have LOS.

Shefton shrinks back into the corner, obviously shaken by the turn of events. He doesn't come forward to offer any aid as Logan fights for his life.

OOC: The rest of the party are on deck healing up, but I will bring them down in a couple of rounds. Think you can survive until then? ;)
