"Hol' on Tibus! Cut sail! Weh'll have yeh out just give us a mo'!" Earthhand takes a few tactical steps (5 feet) left and enchants his oaken shillelagh, bringing the full powers of nature and the might of his wisdom to bear in a vicious staff-blow directly down the head (body?) of the Giant Septopus.
Aedrasends a quick smile of thanks to Agency for her swift action as she notices that Ackam is surrounded. She launches another set of magic missiles, two at Sah5 and one at Sah2.
Flashback to Varris’ last attack that I forgot to describe: The octopus is almost inscrutably confused as the hex settles on it and then waves it tentacles in a mix of terror and confusion as the tolling bells inflict enough damage to startle, if not slow it down.
Tibus’ screams remind Ackam that Sahuagin can psychically summon sharks and he redoubles his resolve and shrugs off wounds that would kill a halfling twice his size, or a regular sized human, or like 3/4 of an orc, and he cleaves into Sah4 staggering the beast
Sah 4 retaliates in fury, snapping and clawing at Ackam Bastion intercedes stymieing the Sahuagin’s bloodlust Attack: 9 Damage: 4 Attack: 19 Damage: 3 the beasts teeth snap inches from Ackam’s face as the halfling holds it at bay, it’s claws find purchase on the halflings shoulder dragging three bloody lines across his deltoid, the halfling doesn’t seem to notice in his rage.
Earthhandyou healAgency, I’ll help the Minotaur! Replies Varris.
Turning his head towards Bastion, he asks friend, could you cover my flank and take care of S1 if I try to focus down the enormous octopus on the other side of the vessel? Looking over at Ackam, could you finish off S5 allowing me to move my hex to the cephalopod?
Are the non-giant octopus enemies wearing any sort of metal?
Earthhand brings his staff squelchingly down upon the head of the evil cephalopod who thinks to itself maybe I’ve fallen in with the wrong crowd. They’ve got me out here acting like some kind of filthy squid. Yes, it appears the septapus is racist, and now clearly soon to be dead.
Aedra throws her hand out and glowing projectiles appear and rocket towards Sah 5 and 2 where they strike and send sizzling puffs of smoke into the air eliciting screams of rage and pain from the creatures, sah 5 is clearly weakened.

This is the attack that was retconned - I instead used Shocking Grasp and then moved. That;'s why I actually didn't event have hex on S5...whoops!
Seeing Earthhand putting G1 onto death's door, Varris places a Hex onto it cursing its Cephalopod wisdom. With his palms facing upward he beckons for the dolorous bells of the afterlife to help it on its journey casting Toll the Dead. Let Mishkala's melody guide you he says with an uncharacteristic yell.
On success: 10 + 2
On successful attack against him, Varris will use Shield to attempt to deflect the damage.

Riiiight! The retcon of the retcon retconning has been in retconned.
The Septapus, fresh from it’s braining from by earthand feels alarmed as the hex settles upon it. It’s remaining tentacles flail impotently as the bells sound around it 3 the septapus asks not for whom the bells toll for you can’t ask for whom anything does anything when you’re dead, which he is.
Merrow 2, under the sway of Bael’s song turns on Sah4 and attacks stabs at it with its harpoon. Attack: 25 Damage: 12 and while it’s skewered, leans in to bite the wriggling Sahuagin Attack: 25 Damage: 12 severing it’s head completely. It spits out the head, which bounces and slides across the deck, and shakes the limp body from it’s harpoon. It turns to look at Bael, blood and viscera dripping from it’s jaws, it’s eyes full of madness, awaiting its next command.
Merrow 1 rears back with spear and claw to attack Issa harpoon Attack: 26 Damage: 19 claw Attack: 16 Damage: 8 the harpoon scores savagely across Issa’s chest, the claws coming from the other direction connect solidly with his shoulder driving him down to one knee, bleeding profusely.
"Issa! Yer a harty fellow, yeh'll get through this yet! All of yeh!" Earthhand gestures to merrow 1, sahuagin 1, and sahuagin 2. "Teh fire o' teh spirits still surrounds those'n mershites, leave teh big fellow what's afflicted by teh crown o' madness fer now, but by the eye of teh hawk may yeh strike true!!"
Aedra glances over her shoulder just for a second and... Nooo! Cries out Aedra as she witnesses the slashing of Issa’s face.Hehadsuchaniceface, she says more to herself than anyone else.She furrows her brow and sends a ball of fiery fury at M1.
With her enemies dropping like fly-fish, Agency pauses only for a moment to acknowledge Aedra's thanks. Following her lead Agency races behind her missiles and goes to flank S5.
Hey Ackam! I heard that you are partial to Fishsticks!
Chuckling to herself Agency stabs her stick at S5.
Attack: 24 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
Following up with her tail.
Attack: 14 Damage: 3
Earthhand, honey, I appreciate that you are biding your time.... but some of our compatriots are taking devastating hits. I am not sure if I can take the same amount of punishment.
S1's legs falter as Bastion's fist crunches into it's knee, the buckle all the more when Bastion's second fist crashes into it's reproductive organs, eliciting a low keening gurgle. Being in such close proximity to the construct and not in a position to do much walking, S1 attempts to bite and claw at Bastion. Bite: Attack: 10 Damage: 2 claws: Attack: 4 Damage: 4 it's teeth managing to find some purchase on Bastion's armored body, but it's claws scrabbling harmlessly against cold steel.
S2 emits a gutteral hiss and drives it's spear towards Ackam's midsection while biting at his neck, spear: Attack: 12 Damage: 2 bite: Attack: 5 Damage: 4 Ackam bats both attacks aside savagely as he screams and lays about himself with his double scimitar.
Down in the water S3 attacks Tibus with it's spear and claws spear:Attack: 23 Damage: 8 Attack: 13 Damage: 3 but the Minotaur keeps it at bay with his massive polearm.
Jayce casts chromatic orb at Mer1 Attack: 24 Damage: 10 the crackling ball of energy smashes into the beasts shoulder exploding in a flash of lightning, killing the Merrow instantly.
Bael turns to S1 and sings a verse about a blind pig who never found an acorn 3 The Sahuagin screams a shrill scream and begins flailing about itself blindly.
back in the water Tibus stabs wildly at S3 in a frenzy Attack: 24 Damage: 16 bonus frenzy attack Attack: 15 Damage: 16 severing the Sahuagin's arm at the shoulder and sending spinning trailing blood into the abyss. Mikkael runs to the the railing and casts shield of faith on Tibus, surrounding the Minotaur in a glowing nimbus of light.
