Custom Campaign - Cold Cash

 After a few days, Kaimos seeks out the training room to get a good physical workout and do some training with Rolen, testing foot and fist against sword and shield.

These day to day activities are what you all are doing when you feel a thud throughout the ship.  You can only assume that is was the sub finally docking with the larger sub; but then something goes wrong.  A much louder thud occurs with immense force; flinging you all off your feet, and changing the angle of the ground beneath you.  Objects are sliding to the side, as the sub appears to begin rolling.

(It's the opening scene of Aquaman. :P)

Flayr stares in surprise as his books begin sliding across the table. When the submarine shudders under the impact of some large object, he is flung clear of his armchair. "Mother of flames, what was that?"

He retrieves his spellbook and stumbles out into the corridor, calling for Kabarr.

Rolen picks himself and his weapons off the floor, and looks around for any of the subs crew to ask whats going on.

Perception: 10

Kabarr perception check 6  Acrobatics check 10

The thud and sudden movement awaken Kabarr from meditations. His fall from his bunk cause him to hit his head on the floor.  Other than instinctively grabbing his greatsword he does not know where he is or what is happening.  He can hear Flayr call out to him but is unsure where to go.  "What the fiery hell is going on?"

Tirana jumps to her feet, eyes darting around, looking panicked.  "What was that?" she asks in a tight voice.

Kaimos, also surprised, tries to keep himself under control and not panic at the thought of being who knows how far underwater in a metal box and how badly it could end if things go wrong.  He takes a few moments to focus on his breathing as he climbs to his feet and wraps his arms around Tirana for a moment to try to comfort her and calm her down a bit.  "I don't know, but I think we should find out.  Let's go see if Rolen is in his room."

She nods slowly, and they make their way into the corridor to look for Rolen.  Kaimos calls out Rolen's name as they move toward his room.

Rolen already in the hallway looking for crewmen of the sub, notices Kaimos and Tirana approaching him.

Rolen: (to Kaimos and Tirana) "Hey, are you guys alright? do you know whats going on?"

Kaimos shakes his head.  "I have no idea, but nothing good!  Do you think we should go see if there's something we can do to help?  Or at least find out what's going on..."

Rolen: (to Kaimos and Tirana) "I would love to help, but odds are anything that can cause a sub to rock around like that is a lot bigger than something both of us can handle. We should definitely find out whats going on."

Flayr, you see people panicking throughout the corridor.

Rolen, you spot out of the corner of your eye something large moving through the water outside.  Also, it looks like the sub may be going even deeper.

Kabarr is able to steady his feet, though it looks like the sub is still rolling over.

Kaimos, you see a crewperson far down the corridor.

Gnook, you know what this is. (Messaging you.)

Gnook, who was leaping at a training dummy when the attack started, starfishes through the air and lands in a heap on the floor. He quickly picks himself back up, and arms himself with real Kafaith, not just training ones.

"Merrow! There's got to be more than a dozen! To arms, gentlemen!"

Rolen: (to Kaimos and Tirana) "I don't want to freak either of you out, but there's a large creature outside of the sub. and not to pile the troubles on, but i think we're sinking."

Tirana moans and tightens her grip on Kaimos arm, which she has been leaning on to help keep her feet with the shifting and rolling of the sub.  Kaimos doesn't look much better off, himself wanting to hide and hope the trouble goes away, but he steels himself and looks the direction Rolen indicates.  "What is it?"

Looking towards the crew member, he shouts, "There's something out there!"

Flayr sighs as shouts of "Merrow!" fill the sub. Aquatic ogres with brutal temperaments and a savage delight in inflicting pain on others. Never been too fond of them myself. He thinks.

"Head down to the lower floors, there'll be an escape hatch and some potions of water breathing!"

Without waiting for the others to follow, Gnook rushes down thataways.

Flayr ponders Gnook's statement for a minute. Perhaps a Potion of Water Breathing might be useful in these particular circumstances. He sprints after the aqua gnome belowdecks.

Gnook runs forward, with others in tow, down several corridors and stairs.  The standard design of this vessel makes it easy for you be start making your way; but you know it'll take some time to get there.

Kaimos, the crewmember looks out the window and a look of anger crosses the aqua gnome's face.  He begins running down the hall with a purpose.

Suddenly the sub shudders again, turns sharply to the side.  Gnook, you slam into the wall of the corridor, but are able to quickly get back to your feet.  Flayr, you were still in the stairway, so though you are safely sitting on a wall, there is now a long hallway that has become a pit before you; screams call be heard from it as people fall below.  Gnook is roughly 20ft infront of you.

Rolen, you and Kaimos watch as Tirana falls towards an open doorway.  (Make Dex Saves both of you.  Then we will add them together; target DC 15)

Kabarr, the door exiting your room is now 15ft up and sideways.

Dexterity Saving Throw: 14

As the sub continues to toss and turn, Kabarr regains his faculties and attempts to gather his gear.  If successful he pulls out his rope.  Yelling for Flayr, he uses his rope to move up sub while he tries to figure out what is going on with the ship.

 Athletics check 10   

Flayr sits calmly on the wall-turned-floor and surveys the pit which has opened up before him. He looks up in mild surprise as he hears Kabarr yelling his name, and he begins to crawl in the direction of his voice. "Come, Caspian." He murmurs to his familiar.

(Please don't make me roll Athletics. :P)
