do I get advantage or anything for being fully underwater? :).
Stealth isn’t Cass’s forte. When they see her, she will swim under the ship and grab on the bottom with her gloves of climbing :).
ahe then plans to ride the bottom of the boat until they are in the channel near shore where the guards are and stop it there, with the feather. - hopefully blocking other ships as well as making them a sitting duck to our attacks.

(hope tuna has better stealth!)
Fortunately, the fog hides you as well. You are one turn's worth of swimming from the ship now. Start deciding on what you will do when you reach it.

Well here’s her initial plan- I understood that the channel where the guards were is where the attacking ships have to come close to shore. So Cass’s plan is to block that, to keep the rest of the fleet From coming through. If it is a longer channel then she might wait and block it further down with the feather to line multiple enemy ships up for our attacks. Then we can attack and burn the boats one at a time.
After stopping her ship, she will sneak (climbing up the side with her gloves, and start attacking with thorn whip- pulling crew overboard). Just her plans so far. Let me know if that makes sense at all. Finally. she and Tuna will try to find the captain of this enemy ship and deal with him..
You both reach the ship, but notice no lights coming from it. As you got closer, the fog had thickened, and at this point, you can only see about 10 feet up. You are unable to see anything of note but the hull of the dark-colored ship.

Swimming up below, Cass will listen to the hull and see if she can hear voices or anything.
You hear nothing but the same rumbling as before just louder. Also, you notice the hull is very cold and slippery.

“I don’t like this at all. Not seemin like a reglar ship.” Cass thinks to herself. “Mayhap I should stop it right quick aftore It gets much closer, then see whots whot.. now we see if that chicken feather is worth what we paid...”
Waiting a few more seconds to ensure the ship is in the channel- she , activates the feather.
While they are swimming Ari will fire another lightning bolt from him launcher into the fog - he will aim using the information from his last hit -the direction he heard the noise / explosion accounting for possible forward movement.
To Hit 6
Damage 14
Harold will descend into the fog cloud toward where the noise from where my last lightning bolt resounded. Once he can see the shape of a ship he will drop 2 of the 4 oil skins from directly above.
OOC - sure you will want a roll for Harold so just going to roll a D20 now :)
Harold Dropping Oil Skins 5
OOC - Not sure if this post was missed a while back. It was horrible so if it didn't happen that works haha :)

You hold the chicken feather to the hull of the ship. The feather glows with a dim orange light, and you immediately hear a loud grinding noise mixed with confused shouts as the ship instantly stops dead in its tracks, as if it had just released dozens of anchors simultaneously. The feather worked exactly as promised.
Cass and Tuna are now treading water next to the immobile ship.
Everyone else is either on the Stone or the Temptress.

Cass swims to the stern of the ship and surfaces. She quickly casts shape Water to make a needle- sharp block of ice to the rear of the ship in the channel - hoping that next crimson ship slams into that and starts sinking. ((Shape water actually sunk the titanic you know!))
While there’s still chaos aboard from the ship stopping, she climbs up the side (using gloves of climbing) and tosses an alchemist fire on deck near the most crew she can target. If she can see any open hatches she will try to toss it down there. ((Note- to my surprise- in 5e you don’t have to roll to hit with a grenade like weapon- you just pick a spot and roll))
then she drops back into the water and swims down out of sight

Cass creates the ice in the water and prepares to climb up, but her gloves slip right off the hull of the ship. You are unable to get a grip on the hull. Either roll an acrobatics check to climb up the smooth hull, or find another way up. If you would like, you could toss the alchemist's fire from the water.
(OOC- Alchemist's fire is treated as a ranged improvised weapon roll, and has a thrown range of 20 ft.)
Tuna will swim and investigate the bottom side of the ship before prepping to back up Cass on the Pyro attack of she is stopped.
20
You inspect the bottom of the ship and discover it is made entirely of metal plates, not a beam of lumber in sight. You also notice some bubbles coming from the back of the ship and hear a loud splash as Cass' ice hits the water.

I think climbing is Athletics. (At least that’s what the gloves give a bonus to). She says a little prayer of guidance and tries to climb the hull. (With a 25). She really wants to get a real target- Now she’s worried the deck won’t burn.
if she has to she could use shape water to make a little step or handhold of ice...
“An entire ship made O metal? What sorcery be this?” She thinks...

I'm saying Acrobatics in addition to an Athletics check because this is a finesse situation The gloves help make the climbing easier, but you still have to get a hold of the hull yourself before the gloves can do anything. The only thing in sight that you can get a grip on are the tiny ends of nails, maybe a quarter of an inch long. You could just make some ice stairs instead, like you said.

That sounds like the plan we had decided on. The other plan was to try and disable the rudder of the ship.
