Earlier

In seeking for something else to focus, Nin remembers the noise Truk made earlier. Not a crazy amount, mercifully, but enough. He has a brief conversation with Gus and Ka, in so much one /can/ converse with the duo, and got a thumbs up from Gus about staying on guard without the lizardfolk pausing in the meal. "Don't question it, Nin." He grumbles as he trades out his rapier for a light crossbow, moves just enough to get an okay look at the mid-dect above, and readies to fires at any slavers that happened to get too close to the edge.

Slightly Later:

Meanwhile, Gustav continues to creep up his apparently own set of stairs with Wonder in tow until they either get to another door, or hear the sound of footsteps approaching their direction. If there path leads them topside, and they see or sense none about, they try creeping their way towards the helm if plenty of cover remains atop. But if they reach only the mid-deck, short Gustav only steps up finish off one of the pinned slavers before duck back his stairyway.

(Sorry, I thought I posted this earlier.)

Slaver 3 takes direct cover at the corner of O14, Taking his crossbow and shooting directly at where he see's Truk. (Truk has 1/2 cover, unless he falls prone. Half cover gives +2 to AC) 

Attack: 12 Damage: 3

The bolt sticks solidly into the table, the bolt-head  sticking through like a nail, but otherwise leaving Truk Unharmed. Slaver 3 then ducks fully behind the wall as he reloads, giving him full cover.

Slaver 2 attempts to free himself from being pinned down to the ground (DC12 Ath: 19) and easily un-restrains himself from the floor, javelin sickly goring through the rest of his body, dealing another 4 damage. It was clear he was near death, as he wandered through the door, hoping to escape the enraged barbarian as he wanders into the middle of the rest of the group, completely oblivious.

Gustav30 - Slaver 3(17) - Slaver 2(16) -Truk 16 - Burgee 14 - Slaver 4(13) - Slaver 5(10) - Slaver 1(7 Impaled) - Era 6 - Slaver 6(5) 

Making Battlemap.

Kauil squeezes tighter into the corner shivering as he sees the slaver (S2) get up from floor and remove the javelin. Kauil remembered that one, though none were nice, this particular slaver was especially nasty towards the slaves. It made Kauil tremble more. He cowered into the corner but readied his daggers prepared to make a strike if the slaver noticed him and came within range of the bird.

Burgee catches a glimpse of slaver 3 as he ducks behind the wall. "Ready or not, here I come! Hehehe!" Burgee yells out, sounding as if a young girls is playing a childs game of hide and seek. He then spreads his arms out, staff in his right hand and his left palm open facing upwards and makes a motion of scooping water and then pushes both hands out toward O15 with extreme force releasing a small tidal wave that crashes into the wall near O15 and washes through the area where slavers 3 & 4 are huddled. And he then crouches behind the table with Truk adding in the same voice, "hahaha, I think I'll find them!". (DEX DC14  or 15 damage; Half that if successful save)

Pixie group initiative: 8
Minos: 8

Minos swipes at the chattering pixies, not particularly aiming to hurt them, but to get them out of the way so he could join the others upstairs. His eyes scan the situation, seeing the genasi hopping towards the door just before the slaver joins them while his eyes fell upon the Aarakocra who had been pressing himself into the corner, shivering once the unsuspecting slaver decided to join them. His hands gripped tightly on the quarterstaff Era gave him. He and I are truly in no condition to fight... I hope she has some sort of trick up her sleeve...

Truk laughs out "Very nice my feathered friend. Now lets see if there's anything left of them" He steps/hops over the table and makes his way to the corner at 014 and attacks whatever is left of S3 and 4 with his poisoned axes. (I'm just going to do all the rolls. If I drop one then just apply the attacks to the other. If theirs no-one to attack because Burgee dropped them, let me know because I'll have to come out of rage)

Regular Attack: 23 Damage: 10

Off hand Attack: 16 Damage: 1

Regular Attack: 9 Damage: 9

Off hand Attack: 13 Damage: 5

Saves - S3:2  S4: 21  S5: 6

 Slavers 4, and 5 pass their saves, one, of them so 'at one' with the sea, the water parts FOR him.. or so it would seem, reducing the damage he takes further down to 25%. Slaver 3, however isn't so lucky.. He wasn't expecting the attack, and falls onto his back, crying out.

Seeing the prone man as he rounds the corner, Truk notices it was the one whom shot him... taking advantage of the mans predicament....

Attack: 9 Damage: 10 - Attack: 1 Damage: 1

The first attack lands wit ha heavy thud against the slavers ribs, cracking them slightly, though not enough to cause lasting effects, the second attack however cleaves through his leg entirely, making it impossible for him to stand up again (permanent-prone on Slaver 3) Despite this, the man doesn't quite look near-death.. yet. However his screams can be heard echoing throughout the halls. 3 Loud enough to rouse those sleeping in their cabins. (2 turns)

As Era ascends the stairs, the slaver stumbles in, causign Era to lash out with her readied spell, however, she must have been caught enough off guard by this, that her attack goes wide, crashing into the door, splintering it a bit. Slaver 2 looks up in disbelief as he now notices he's surrounded by several people... This triggers Kauil's readied action, as he doesn't want the slaver to try anything....

Attack: 14 Damage: 4 

Kauil's attack hits, but barely manages to pierce the slavers armor, managing to nick him across the shoulder, but nothing more....

This leads into Kauil's next flurry of attacks, as he sweeps twice more....

Attack: 9 Damage: 1 - Attack: 3 Damage: 1

Both attacks bouncing off the slavers armor. (sorry it was his turn and I didn't wanna bog down the turn order :P you can dictate his thing on the next round!)

Slavers 4, and 5 panic as they see Truk there, having so cleanly cleaved through their fellow, dropping their crossbows, (free action) and both attempting to grapple Truk to the ground..... 22 Vs Truk's Athl or Acro. If Failed, Truk is Restrained

Gustav30 - Slaver 3(17) - Slaver 2(16) -Truk 16 - Burgee 14 - Kauil 13 - Slaver 4(13) - Slaver 5(10) - Pixies/Minos 8 - Slaver 1(7 Impaled) - Era 6 - Slaver 6(5) 

(Skipping slaver 1's turn for the sake of making Era's post easier, just know if you do anythign to slaver 1 he will have a chance to react as if his turn had gone first :P)

Slaver 3's Con Saves, DC 14 cayuse his INT is average! 20 - 11

He is Paralyzed and unable to scream, the cabins are no longer 'woke' Sorry Brian! but can't edit that part without messing up rolls

Despite the missed hit, Era still has a look of determination of her face. "It's clear you are out numbered here," She says with furrowed eyebrows, her pixies moving from surrounding Minos, to surrounding the slaver. "So make this easy. I tie you up with my whip, gag you with something, and we be on our merry way, okay? Pretty please?"

Intimidation: 3

((Because avrae probably hates me))

If he is not intimidated by the cute genasi, Era attacks with her whip again. If the slaver tries to attack her or her second birdy friend, and if at all possible, the pixies will take the hits instead. (AC 15)

Attack: 16 Damage: 10

If he IS intimidated, Era ties him up with her thorn whip, gags him with a dirty sock and Minos throws him down the stairs for the others to deal with.

Slaver 2 raises his hands in an obvious 'I give up' though he laughed a bit at how the Girl had asked the way she had...  .. if not for the fact he was heavily outnumbered and already near death....  He allows  himself to be tied up by a portion of her hempen rope, leaving 25' of it left. (sorry Thorn Whip kinda 'disappears' after use :P its 'bio degradeable'

As Mino's tosses him down the stairs, due to being restrained, he suffers another 5 damage ... Dying.

Slaver 10 is Topdeck with the Helmsman, 'Hiding' and readying his attack should you come up the most likely port-hole. 10

Slaver 1 Also attempts to break free from his impalement (DC 12 21) also passing with flying colors, and a sickening slurp. He readies his crossbow after he suffers another 1 and cunningly hides behind the door, only for Attack: 17 Damage: 6 to shlick through his leg, spoiling his attempted stealth thanks to the Bugbears readied action.

 Gustav30 - Slaver 3(17) - Slaver 2(16) -Truk 16 - Burgee 14 - Kauil 13 - Slaver 4(13) - Slaver 5(10) - Pixies/Minos 8 - Slaver 1(7 Impaled) - Era 6 - Slaver 10(5) 

Nin, ever the professional, immediately lines up and fires another shot at Slaver 1's lower extremities. With any luck, one more might just be enough to send the man falling back into the pit.

Attack: Attack: 17 Damage: 8.
(No attack modifier. Nin +1 to dex just puts him in range of veraging out. 

.....

Nin quickly steps off to the side or back to avoid being fallen upon. As for Gus and Ka, they perk up at the new body hitting the floor. While Ka goes to check things out and eventually drag it back to Gus, Gus shifts around to face the slavers in the cage. His expression is placid, but the warning -- if it was a conscious one -- is clear when he continues to eat while staring directly at them.

Gustav sidesteps the falling body without much issue. But before he can take a proper step forward, Wonder squeezes him tightly about the neck. "... Mercy? For that one?" He feels more than sees her nod. "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become... Fine. Arise, Chicken, Chicken Arise." He calls to the Slaver 2, bringing him at least back to consciousness with a Healing Word(6). Sighting Gus moving just in sight, Gustav adds a quick, "No eating that one" before disappearing further into mid-deck. Gus still drags the slaver away to at least be watched over. Alive. For now. 

"You owe me." He says to the sound of her humming an approval. "Stay with me now, little kit." Gustav strides forth, missing Slaver1. Or so it appeared for half a second. He spins around on a dime, setting Wonder up in time to fire her own scare tactic shot right past Slaver1's face just as Gustav goes on to stab him with a basic poisoned coated rapier. If the stab puts him down, Gustav moves on to try and join Truk without getting too close to the hole(15-E). If not, he stays where he is.

Action: Rosebud Attack
Attack: 22 Damage: 15 at Slaver 1.

(I'm assuming by Slaver1 hiding behind the door, you mean the one at 12d, so Gustav will be right next to him at 13d when he attacks)

Kauil looks at Era, Burgee said I could trus this one, he thinks, but trust isn't easily earned by someone who has gone through the trauma that Kauil has endured. He simply looks at Era and lets out a quiet and meek "Thank you," as he retreats back into the safety of his corner. (C15)

Burgee watches as Truk rushes towards the slavers, "Wait! Careful!" he squawks, then shrugs his shoulders as he jumps over the table and rushes up behind Truk. (O16)

14

The slaver easily resists the poison, however the force from the stab pushed him back, as he coughed up blood all over Gustav's hand, and coat, as a bolt sticks out through his leg. 13 he manages to steady himself before falling over, into the hole, staring daggers at the Tabaxi pair before him. Aww, wut'ya gunna do wif 'er? Ohh! AUGH he cries out in pain, mid taunt, Gonna do what animuls do best eh? Ya perv! Ahahah AUgh he manages to get out before spitting more blood, but still standing.. barely.

Truk scoffing at the slavers attempt to grapple him (hopefully. advantage on str saves from rage) 9

Shrugs them both off and attacks each one hoping to paralyze them both.

Slaver 4 Attack: 16 Damage: 7

Off hand Attack: 11 Damage: 3

Slaver 5 Attack: 9 Damage: 9

Off hand Attack: 19 Damage: 4

Crap. Ooof. OK, so Disadvatage rolls on those attacks...

4: 6

5: 9 - 15

Truk's attacks land hard on both, but one attack, landing hard on Slaver 4, breaks his arm in the process of attacking him, not that it mattered much, as both go rigid, paralyzed as they grappled Truk, it almost looked now like the slavers were giving big Uncle Truk a hug as they were frozen in these positions. Leaving Truk himself still grappled, but the DC is now only 10 Ath/Acro to break free.

Slaver 2, tied up, and put into a cell, is confused as to why he was healed, though it was only enough to bring him to life, not to mend his pride.. is now trapped in his cell. 

Slavers 3, 4 and 5 are Paralyzed.

Thoughts of giving up crossed slaver 1's mind, but never, not to a cat. He knew he was gonna die.. probably... So he made one last Hail-Mary attempt. As Gustav's sword dives through his gut, the slaver jumps over the edge, attempting to 'pull' (this is technically a shove) Gustav and Wonder (since she's on his back) down with him.

Hail Mary Pull DC: 19

 If failed, Slaver 1, Gustav, and Wonder all take 11 Bludgeoning Damage.

Gustav30 - Slaver 3(17 Paralyzed) - Slaver 2(Imprisoned) -Truk 16 - Burgee 14 - Kauil 13 - Slaver 4(13 Broken Arm/Paralyzed) - Slaver 5(10 Paralyzed) - Pixies/Minos 8 - Slaver 1(7) - Era 6 - Slaver 10(5) 

Sitrep: 4 slavers are sleeping in their cabins. Most of the slavers on this deck have been incapacitated, imprisoned or both.  Only the Helmsman, Slaver 10, and the 4 sleeping ones technically remain.

(Since technically a shove, time for some acrobatics to slip free!)

Acrobatics: 18,
(if able to sub with Sleight of hand, add +3 to roll at the cost of losing the rapier.)

Era couldn't help but smile at Kauil's thank you, simply giving him an affirming nod before looking over to Minos. "Stay with him, okay? All this will be over soon, promise." Before the minotaur could object, Era and her pixies run/fly out to join Burgee, stopping next to him to survey the damage. "Hoo! Wow, you guys did a number on 'em, huh? Good job! Where's Truk?" The genasi squints down the hallway. "There he is! Oh! I think he just slaughtered someone else! Get 'em, buddy! Show 'em whose boss!" She's grinning from ear to ear as she speaks, giving Burgee a pat on the head before dashing to get as close as she can to the giant. (K15? I'm not too sure haha)

"Wow, Era you've made some blood thirsty friends!"

"Eeeh, comes with the search!" She gives her pixies a shrug.

"Why aren't you joining him? You're like a few feet away!"
"I don't know, there is like this magic invisible wall in front of me! I can't move anymore!"

The slaver lands, dying, Gustav landing on the ground next to him, having twisted in the air just enough to absorb some of the damage Wonder would otherwise have taken, reducing her damage by half, but her weight causing him to take 4 additional damage. Both now back on the bottom floor, likely shocking and surprising the 3 other slaves down here.

The remaining (uncontrolled) slaves have left their cells, and are milling about near the back of the boat, trying to avoid as much of the conflict as possible.

Combat is effectively over, initiative is over. Post as needed. Remember, there's slavers sleeping in cabins (total of 4) and the the two topdeck.

What do you all plan to do with the many paralyzed and broken slavers you just more or less crippled. 

What do you do?

After you each make your post, please roll a DC 13 Acrobatics or Athletics check, or be knocked prone as the ship suddenly begins lurching to one side, essentially knocking anyone who fails into the wall at the 'bottom' of the map, though no damage is taken.

(Also.. Era.. took me a bit to get your fairies comments .. but after I figured it out.. LMFAO)

It was too late. Try as he might've to simply let go before it was too late only resulted in him losing the rapier in the fall. Acting on instinct, Gustav shifts around as Wonder's grip started to loosen from the sudden descent, and hugged her close to his chest. Then the pain explodes from his backside. As the sound of something internally cracking in his ears and the taste of iron begin filling his mouth, Gustav blacks out... for all of a few seconds. Fueled by panic, Wonder had pushed away her own pain long enough to shake him back to consciousness.

Meanwhile Gus and Ka, the maws still bloody from returning to the last scrap of their meal, rushed to his side. Gus has to struggle to pull Wonder off while Gustav dizzily stared at the open gap in the ceiling. Somehow Gustav musters the strength and focus long enough to point off to where he left his pack. As Ka rushed off to bring it over, Nin -- still paranoid about any more falling bodies -- walks over with his crossbow trained on the hole before finally striding over by the fallen Tabaxi. He kicks aside any weapons near Slaver1, and keeps his crossbow trained on him.

"Stoopid git. Act like -- ah! *groans*... Thank you, Ka. Now where's -- there.. there it is. Nin. Patch him up." Gustav pushes his medical pack over to Nin to start working on the slaver. Any broken bones couldn't be fixed immediately, but at least the pack had enough to keep him from bleeding out for a time. While the bugbear grudgingly gets to work, the aged panther offers a potion of healing to wonder. Gus frees her at that point, but not without getting a spiteful kick in the shin for it. Wonder stares in wonderment, and true to her name got up close to sniff at the bottle. She then looks back and forth between potion and Gustav's bent tail before motioning to it.

"Heh. Funny. Strange, but funny... I'll be fine, kit. Now drink." As she grudgingly takes a sip of the sweet tasting liquid, Gustav recovers rosebud on his way back up to the midsection. Wonder immediately jets off after him, but repressed the temptation to jump back on his back.

(After stabilizing the prisoner, Nin will put him in a separate cell to recover. Gus and Ka will return to keeping watch. Question in discord.)

(Wonder's Healing Potion: 7)

Looking to Era and Burgee while breaking out of the grapple... Athletics: 15 and says "I'm done with these ****ers. I gave them 3 chances to lay down arms. Putting them out of their misery will be a kindness"

Unless Era or Burgee protest Truk will kill the 3 slavers that are paralyzed and crippled. (If you want rolls for that let me know but it seemed like we were just in free action here to wrap stuff up.)

Feeling the boat suddenly swing to it's side Truk bends his knees and tries to absorb the motion saying "That can't be good!"

DC13 check: 14

"Oh, hey, the wall is gone! I can move freely now!"

"Yaaaay---"

With the wall blocking her from moving any closer to the giant gone, she snaps her fingers and poofs away her pixies and bounces her way over to Truk, watching as he mercilessly murders the paralyzed slavers with great enthusiasm! She'd offer to help, really, but watching was more fun anyways... And she didn't want to get her cloak all dirty! Well... More than it already was anyways. Without so much of a thought, Era's cloak changes color from tropical blues and yellows to red to mask any of the blood stains she happened to have on her. "Good job, big guy, doesn't even look like they hurt you any! Think there's anyone in those rooms--"

Acrobatics: 5

"That we can take care of?" She continues, barely noticing the lurch of the ship til Truk mentions it. "Uh oh, definitely not, we better gather everyone together. Do you know where Gustav is?"
