Tharn heads toward the eastern group of sahaugin, moving quickly.

One ship remains moored to the waterlogged docks. Its crew members are battling sahuagin as well as giant crabs with orange shells and vicious pincers as they attempt to board the vessel. A young villager wearing a bloodstained white robe stands back from the fight and screams an incantation, calling a burst of golden flame down on one of the sahuagin. As you arrive, he turns to you, clearly frightened.

“Are any of you wounded? Those sailors need help, but I can’t get close enough to heal them. But if I heal you, will you please help them?”

"We are untouched." Tharn turns to the others. "Let's make a path!" He grabs his battleaxe in both hands and moves to engage the closest enemy in between the group and the ship.

Tharn Initiative (if relevant): 14

"Aye. Let's go and help." Delaford will run toward the ship with her 2 shortswords in hand. 

Initiative if needed 20

“We will indeed!” Flick exclaims as he rushes forward with his three companions. “First sea devils, and now giant crabs... this tale is getting worse by the minute!” 

(How many Sahaugin and crabs do we see?)

Initiative: 4

(OCC: @Dbaileyak, initiative is a DEX ability check and benefits from the Emboldening Bond feature.  I just learned that this week.)

Barrion stays with the group, charging into the battle, with shield on one arm and his other hand free.

Initiative: 14

Sahaugin: 6

Giant Crabs: 11

(Give me a second or two, and I’ll get an initiative order up)

Okay, here’s the turn order:

• Delaford: 20
• Tharn: 14
• Barrion: 14
• Giant crabs: 11
• Sahaugin: 6
• Flick: 4

(There are two sahaugin and four crabs. The map is the same as last time, just that you’re now on the eastern edge of the island.)

Delaford will rush the nearest crab not knowing what to expect and slash at them with her 2 shortswords

Attack: 11 Damage: 5 

Attack: 20 Damage: 1

The first sword slices the crab, drawing blood. However, the second sword misses the target.

(It’s Tharn’s turn. Barrion, you’re on deck.)

Tharn moves to flank the crab Delaford hit, and with his battleaxe in both hands makes a massive uppercut into its body.

Attack: 15 Damage: 11

(OOC: Attack includes advantage for flanking, damage includes Great Weapon Fighting specialty. Also, has too much time passed or does Tharn still have inspiration from the bard?)

(I’d say the inspiration is still there, the island’s relatively small.)

Tharn cuts into the crab, cleaving it in half.

(Barrion’s turn)

Barrion gestures toward the closest giant crab within 60 ft and whispers a prayer, "My goddess, send you cleaning fire among us."

Sacred Flame DC 12 DEX Save

Damage on failed save: 3 radiant

The crab narrowly dodges the fire, scuttling to the side. It then moves up to Barrion and swipes at him, whilst its companion attacks Flick.

Crab 1: 16 to hit, for 6 bludgeoning, and you’re grappled if hit.

Crab 2: 4 to hit, for 6 bludgeoning, and you’re grappled if hit.

The sahaugin will then rush up to Delaford and Tharn, respectively, and multiattack them.

Sahaugin 1: Bite is 16 to hit, for 3 piercing, and spear is 13 to hit, for 3 piercing.

Sahaugin 2: Bite is 19 to hit, for 4 piercing, and spear is 17 to hit, for 5 piercing.

EDIT: Forgot to say it’s Flick’s turn. Delaford’s on deck.

Tharn grunts as the sahaugin bites and stabs him. Another hit like that would be hard for him to take.

The bite from the sahaugin digs deep and is so painful that Delaford begins to feel woozy.

In retaliation, Delaford will swing her 2 short swords at Sahaugin 1

Attack: 16 Damage: 9

Attack: 10 Damage: 6

After twisting his agile feline body to escape being grabbed by the giant crab's pincer, Flick whips out his rapier and thrusts is forward, attempting to stab the oversized crustacean right in one of its eyes. 

Attack: 5 Damage: 8

Then, with a quick motion of his off-hand paw and his ears twisted back in a sign of obvious aggression , he swats at the crab's eyes and face with his own claws fully extended. (Bonus action, claw attack)

Attack: 5 Damage: 0

...and suddenly realizes that he's very much out of practice with close combat. 

Reeling from the pain of the crab's claw (and the realization that he prepared his prayers/spells this morning with a different, larger party in mind), Barrion utters a word on his own behalf, "Mercy," not to the crab, but to his goddess.

Healing Word 5

While continuing to clutch the amulet, he prays harder for the Everlight to strike the crab he is engaged with.

Sacred Flame DC 12 DEX Save

Tharn swings his axe at the sahaugin that attacked him.

Great Weapon Fighting Attack: 14 Damage: 13

(OOC: As bonus action, he takes Second Wind regaining HP: 9)

(Edit: For some reason none of the die rolls came through. Seeing if they do after this edit. If they don't I'll repost.)

Delaford cuts the sahaugin into pieces with the two swords, Flick’s rapier goes right through the crab, killing it, the remaining crab is harmed by Barrion’s flames, (still need a damage roll for that) and Tharn grievously wounds the final remaining sahaugin, but not to the point of killing it.
