In the heat of battle, Brother Coltinar swiftly seeks to position himself, ensuring that his divine radiance can encompass the maximum number of enemy targets. While advancing to a central point of the airship, the cleric kneels beside Braxiel, and with a quick prayer, he conjures healing energy towards the gravely injured wizard, mending his wounds slightly. //---DM Braxiel recovery 6 hp---//
In a resolute stance, now nearest to the ship´s bow, Coltinar raises his holy symbol, creating a beacon of light amidst the chaos. With a powerful surge of divine energy, he invokes his Channel Divinity, Radiance of the Dawn, and the brilliance of his faith dispels any magical darkness within 30 feet, bringing a wave of radiant energy washes over all the foes in the vicinity. The pirate on the left, already injured, is enveloped by energy rays and explodes in beams of light, disappearing completely. The manticores, the tiefling rider, and the Hobgoblin falter overwhelmed by the divine force, and despite some having managed to withstand a portion of the radiant onslaught, all of them were hardly hit. "Nice shot-a, Priest"Leo shouts to Coltinar when the Arcane energy hits the Hobgoblin close to him.
As the sacred energy surges within him, Braxiel's determination takes a fierce form. He seems angry and confused. His eyes lock onto the manticore that had impaled him with its vicious spike. A surge of supernatural power emanates from his outstretched hand, manifesting as a spectral scythe beneath the creature, trying to slash at the manticore's throat. But the ghost blade dissipates before hitting the target. At a glance, Paladin and Coltinar see that the Braxiel tattoo glows strongly in an incandescent dark purple on his neck.
So, the Wizard like weaving a fabric of magic cast Toll of the Dead upon the manticore on the right. A haunting toll reverberates through the air as spectral hands grasp at the creature's mind, causing it to suffer even more.
As the first round of battle concludes, the chaos take over the place.

Brother Coltinar is midship right behind the Hobgoblin I'm thinking that by Leo, Bryn. Brother Coltinar would not move in a way that would cause him to get hit by an opportunity attack.
Brother Coltinar says, "Praise be the light of Dol Arrah my friends and enemy."

Still hidden beneath the red awning, Bryn carefully lines up a shot with his shortbow in order to strike the hobgoblin in the midst of his friends. Sneak Attack: 21 Damage: 11 (Bonus action) In the confusion on deck, Bryn shifts his position to hide again...(Stealth: 10)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Arr steps closer to the hobgoblin and covers Bryn‘s attempt to hide with a succession of two quick blows with his cleaver and hammer to draw the hobgoblin’s attention.
Sorry, I'm beginning to enter a vacation period and while I will try to check-in at least daily, I cannot promise that I will always be able to do so. From September 1, I should be back to normal.
Bryn, still concealed beneath the protective red awning, readies his shortbow with precision, aiming to target the hobgoblin who stands amidst his companions. With a calculated shot, his arrow finds its mark, catching the enemy off-guard.
Arr, seizing the opportunity created by Bryn's attack, move closer to the hobgoblin. With a swift and reckless flourish, they deliver two rapid blows using their cleaver and hammer, diverting the hobgoblin's attention. The combined onslaught proves too much for the hobgoblin, who collapses lifeless to the deck.
The captain emerges astride the manticore that was previously wounded but now appears to have regained some vigor. Witnessing Arr's takedown of his second-in-command, the captain takes matters into his own hands. Swiftly, he hurls two ranged attacks with his dagger, both strikes landing true. DM Arr suffer 9 points of damage.
The captain's voice booms, commanding his crew, "Take cover, you fools! Protect the manticores! You're being attacked from afar! Find out where the ranged assaults are coming from!" With his orders given, he retreats behind the ship, distancing himself by over 100 feet within the fog.
The remaining tiefling seizes the moment of Arr's reckless to launch a counterattack. Taking aim from his mount atop the left manticore, he fires two successive bolts from his crossbow. While the first shot goes astray, the second finds its mark.The tiefling and his mount then move back, putting 60 feet between them and the party. DM another 10 piercing damage to Arr.
Amidst the chaos, the ship shudders from an impact and tilts to the right. Leo feels the jolt and rushes toward the helm, urgently calling out, "Catso, non!!! Amelia!!!" Hovering over a precipice, with Callestan to the right and an abyss below, you are moving toward "The Stores" that looming ahead.
DM With the hobgoblin vanquished, the spotlight now falls on Rylia.
Arr grunt as the two daggers and the crossbow bolt connect and pierce their natural armor plating. Angrily they glare at the bandit captain and call out at Leo, "Bring us closer to that fiend! They are trying to pick us apart from distance!"

Rylia has been looking about, trying to stay aware of what's happening amid the chaos before her. She gave a sigh of relief as the hobgoblin that had landed right near her is brought down. Then had to brace herself from the shudder of the vessel. At Arr's words she looks to the manticore at the right and the Tiefling atop it. Although worried about the enemy captain's words to find out where the ranged assaults were coming from, she closes her eyes to focus herself. Drawing on the power she had felt from the tatoo she received last night, she starts the incantation to cast Ray of Frost making the hand motions towards the flying beast.
(Spell Attack: 13+2=15, Damage: 7; on a hit, target's speed is reduced by 10 feet until the start of my next turn)
Having made her attack, she moves back beneath the red canopy to get as much as cover as she can.
(Note - She would intend to use her reaction to cast Shield if attacked and if that would deflect the blow.)
Rylia hits the manticore on her right, mounted by the tiefling, the only one in her field of vision, which in addition to the damage, feels its wings heavier and slowing its down. It flies back a little, leaving it now 70 feet away from the party.
Rylia feels a light touch on her arm as she comes under the tarp - she will see a vague outline and Bryn's green eyes hidden in the shadow. He grins at her before focusing his attention back out towards the attackers.
Paladin moves up next to Arr and covers him with his shield, waiting to see if they try to board again. Time is on our side, as these skies will eventually bring guards, we've seen the griffin riders.
As Paladin moves closer, shielding Brother Coltinar, the cleric's watching eyes sweep across the crew. He takes in the injuries sustained by Braxiel, Paladin, and Arr, noting that while they have been hit, their conditions seem stable. His gaze searches for Bryn and Rylia, finding no immediate trace of them, but the memory of their recent attacks reassures him that they are likely hidden from sight. Amidst the swaying deck and chaotic battle, everyone remains alive, and the tides of the conflict have shifted as they managed to take down three of the enemy crew. It would have been a distinct advantage were it not for those accursed manticores, he thinks with frustration.
Rylia, having managed to slip under the cover of the awning undetected, starts when something brushes against her arm. A dual sense of shock and relief washes over her as she recognizes the touch as Bryn's. It's a sigh of comfort and reassurance, knowing that he is well and an ally by her side. With a flash of the last seconds, The little wizard dawns on her that the surge of energy from the tattoo aided her in striking down the monstrous flying creature. Casting her gaze downward, she inspects her thigh, noticing that her tattoo has vanished completely.

On Bryn's turn:
Bryn peers out from under the awning and his hiding place, sighting the wounded manticore (assuming it's still on his side and in his field of vision...) and lets another arrow loose towards the flying monster. Sneak Attack: 21 Damage: 10 His green eyes follow the arrow to its mark, watching to see if the manticore falls and determining how the crosswinds and upcoming obstacles might affect his next shot. He then repositions himself under the awning to remain hidden. (Bonus action: Stealth-26)
Due to the Fog Cloud behind the "Amelia," the enemy ship, now shrouded in darkness, struggling to advance swiftly. It is not possible to see it anymore. Hearing Arr's shout, Leo attempts to steer the ship to stabilize it, but his attention is divided by the ongoing battle and he inadvertently collides with a poorly maintained tower, possibly a warehouse, that is common in this area. The impact breaks a stained glass window and a piece of the wall. "Oops! I hope it's not a Daask warehouse," Leo thinks to himself. "Forgive me, Amelia," Leo mutters, "Soorry!" he shouts aloud. DM: The ship takes 8 points of damage.
The captain's voice, mounted on the manticore to the left, echoes at just under 100 feet. "The Warforgeds, take down the Warforgeds!" Almost immediately, a shower of spikes from both the left and right directions sweeps across the deck. By Coltinar's side, Paladin's shield protects them from two spikes, but a third pierces his right side at his metal rib height. DM: Paladin takes 7 points of piercing damage.
Further ahead, you all see Arr being hitted multiple times, sustaining severe damage, hopefully, minimized by their rage. In an attempt to find support on the still-standing table, the barbarian-warforged take two steps to the right, taking a small break to recover themselve.
DM: Arr takes 11 points of damage
Coltinar is the next.
