<x-tab> </x-tab>[Recap]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Kiet: [Re: Actions[
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>OOC...I don’t
know if Kiet went to bed after his shift or where he is.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Bic...back in
context
As soon as he becomes aware of the horrid creature, he will launch fire
from his ring(s) as necessary to put it down...assuming it works.
Purposely not reading that section before determining action.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. I figured all are awake thus see map.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Raddok: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Apris 30, ~8 AM
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab> Raddok is awake
by 7 AM, and although the day promises to be warm, past experience aboard
has him donning his leather armor (he doesn't want to wear the quilted
and get it all damp with sweat - it sticks to him more than the leather)
& helmet. Since it's an even-numbered day, he dons his mace &
dagger, but sets his shield on top of his locker before sitting down to
have breakfast. He is wearing his magic ring (He hasn't removed it since
he got it.)
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab> When the Wyrm
attacks, Raddok is startled with the others into action, and starts to
run for his shield, but then sees Kiet firing his own fire ring, and
Raddok turns swiftly toward the beast & fires his own ring once at it
(unless the lockers are blocking his view [since I don't currently know
where he's located on the ship] - if the lockers are in the way, he will
continue to head for his shield, ducking slightly & cursing under his
breath, but he prepares to use the ring as soon as he has a visible
target in range - which seems likely). After firing off the ring once, he
continues to head for his shield, and will draw his mace.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Raddok: [Re: Actions
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>[Now knowing
Raddok's position (why was he in the secret hold? On orders, an errand? I
don't fee he'd just wander there unless he was storing something for
someone. My questions are: 1) is the secret hatch door open? - and how
far from the actual top deck is Raddok located (i.e.: is he at bottom of
stairs or in back of the secret hold & how many phases to get up to
the deck & see the Wyrm/) -- just want to know how many phases until
he can actually fight]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Once enough
phases have passed for Raddok to reach the top deck (unless he's already
at the secret hold's doorway), Raddok will see the Wyrm ahead of him
along the port side of the ship at the far end of the ship (just over 60'
away & slightly out of range for the ring). He slams the hold'
cover/door & starts running for his shield & will fire his ring
once after he reaches the lockers, because he wants to be sure he's
in range of the beast, but wants his shield before he tries firing a 2nd
time.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Why there who knows. Could be checking hull
integrity who knows. Hatch could be open since it gets very hot in that
hold. At least until in port or a storm. It'd probably take a
phase to get back up to top deck. Its all a random placement. :)
<x-tab> </x-tab>
From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>As soon as she
heard Corona's warning Z'leyra triggers her boots speed enhancement while
grabbing her staff and drum. She casts Orient self on herself at EL4
(which will increase her casting speed with other shamanic spells) while
positioning herself near the center of the ship. Upon seeing the wyrm she
yells out "It is surrounded by poison vapor!" as she then casts
a shamanic max EL Protection from Chaos spell through her staff to help
protect the party while hindering the wyrm. Following this she will cast
thru her staff a max EL Abandon spell on the wyrm to give the party one
phase of ambush bonus in their attacks on it.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>She will try to
stay out of melee range of the wyrm.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack.

<x-tab> </x-tab>[New
Stuff]
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Apris
30th, 1636TH]<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Time:
8:03:00 am]
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Phase 1]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Corona dives toward the beast with the green-gray-cloud of
poison around it. He fires his magical eyes to unleash a fire dart
like beam but it splashes into the water nearby.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea takes to the air and grabs her bow on her back.
She knocks the bow and fires an arrow. But it goes wild and she
misses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Zol Zim growls but remains in place next to Ix until ordered
otherwise.<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The Wyrm raises his neck and tries to bite at Fremea as she
moves past but she is too agile and he misses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Unali draws both daggers but remains in place having
recalled something in the past.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Arawn backs away from the edge out of his range of the neck
and yells that's he's doing a battle mind spell.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The sailors pulls weapons and get close but are wary of the
cloud especially seeing both Arawn and Unali backing away – a very bad
sign.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Pyan moves to the lockers and grabs his bow and quiver.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Mournath runs port side and grabs his spear.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet moves from the aft toward the creature to get closer
for his rings.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Z'leyra activates her boots and yells out, “It is surrounded
by poison vapor!" Then prepares to cast a spell.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok hears the yelling in the smuggler's hold and doesn't
get the full details. Maybe its Barbosa swinging from the rigging yet
again and Dorhak yelling. But he decides to climb the stairs. Upon
getting topside he blinks at the sight of the beast. Then moves
slightly forward.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Barbosa runs to grab his mace from the lockers and hears
Z'leyra and slows a bit worried.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Dorhak grabs his mace and hopes Arawn has a plan as he moves
lightly toward the beast.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Mae in the hold hears nothing.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Ix tries to figure out what is going on but her magical
sight-blindness gives less details than possible at this range.
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>-------
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Time:
8:03:04 am]
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Phase 2]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea fires her bow and hits the beast but the arrow
bounces off his tough hide.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Pyan fires his own bow but his arrow misses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Corona dives again but fails to hit again with his eyes.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet triggers both of his rings now in range by the southern
lockers. Both smokeless flames hit the beast and do 35 and 25
points. The beast screams and writhes in pain.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok now a few feet ahead of Kiet raises his hand and
invokes his own magical shifter ring. This is slightly different
and a fire dart and even with the beasts high magical defense the dart
hits on his neck and does 17 more points of damage.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The Wyrm screams and shakes his head in pain as he has lost
over 70% of his life in a few seconds. It turns and dives under the
water going deep.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The ship looks and wait. The water is quiet and the
air is tense. Corona and Fremea circle and try to spot the
creature. But the water is deep as much as 300-400 feet deep and
murky so hard to see below the waves.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Finally it seems the danger is gone. It seems the
beast has fled to save his own life. But some figure the beast will
remember this ship and the Black Depths has a new powerful enemy under
the waves.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Unali sheaths her daggers she reminds the group, "When
we met one of these creatures on the grass plains Thig mentioned that
they are great hoarders of treasure. It should have a lair or something
nearby where its treasure may be found, but I have no means to find
it."

Update...Saturday?
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM:
Ok. That was shorter than I expected. Even with a MDV 27 good
rolls on those rings. Oh well. But I rolled and he
fled. A decade ago I'd have beast fight to death. But I'm a
diff gm now. :) Not many loot treasure resolutions folks? I figure
that'd be settled by now. We move on. Saturday I'll do a
'where are we now – what do we know' update. A adventure
recap. Then maybe end up at Vahear. We'll see. Sorry
for delays. Last Wednesday I was so blurry of eyes (eye bug?) I did
non vital stuff on pc. Last few chance for IBT/Language
updates.
