You stand on the deck of your spelljamming ship, Moonraider, even as explosions obliterate two of its masts and hurl a dozen of your fellow sailors into Wildspace! Distant stars and wheeling clouds of multicolored gas spin around you as the first pirate galleon slams into Moonraider’s starboard side, and a gust of foul wind washes over you as the galleon’s air envelope merges with your own. Seconds later, your vessel is boarded by astral reavers—humanoids possessed of strange features, waving cruel weapons, and unleashing blasts of magic.
Captain Sardax lies on the deck nearby, her body ruined by shrapnel. “Hold the top deck!” she snarls with her dying breath. “Grant them no quarter!”
The reaver with the shiny skin flinches as Bas's spell hits him.
Bruno, a large mastiff and the ship's mascot, races onto the forecastle and attacks one of the reavers, knocking them prone and doing 2 hp of piercing damage in the process.
The destructive light of reaver spells reflect off the burnished scales of Gyronimus Jawn, a tall bronze dragonborn wielding a longsword and shield.
"No quarter!" he roars to those who remain upright. "Send these godless abominations back into the void! Xarlax!" he calls to the other dragonborn. "Let's chill their bones and make 'em spark!"
His reptilian eyes build with a hateful blue light as he inhales sharply and roars out a lungful of lightning towards the nearest creatures, hoping to get as many as he can in the electrifying blast.
Breath Weapon (lightning): 5ft wide by 30ft long line of crackling blue lightning. DEX DC 13 → 2d6 lightning damage, half on successful save.
Gyronimus is able to line up his breath weapon so all three reavers are struck by the lightning with the shiny one taking the brunt of the attack. A fourth pirate with huge ears and a long nose climbs up to the forecastle. This elephantine humanoid roars and charges toward Zintheris.
A flash of green scales, red eyes, and black cloak darted across the deck of the Moonraider a Rapier in one hand directly in front counter balanced by a dagger and long green lizard tail trailing behind. A nearly serpentine pattern of darting from side to side to distract his target as Khilos reached Zitheris target, "Allow me..." Khilos said said with a deep hiss as he lashed out with his Rapier at the target, followed quickly by a flourished spin, his cloak and tail distracting the target as he drove his dagger toward the Elephantine reavers ribs!
OOC: Move to target, Attack with rapier (9, miss I presume) followed by bonus action two weapon fighting with dagger (20 Critical Hit! for 14 damage)

Gyronimus, your turn, then Zintheris.

Zintheris, your turn. Khilos Shen is next.
"Aye, taste some steel," Zintheris whispers, attacking the one rushing with both his daggers.
Zitheris stabs the elephantine reaver with his dagger. Although severely wounded, the pirate is still standing.
Khilps Shen, your turn. Beaivi, you're next.
