Any creature that grapples you or otherwise comes into direct contact with your skin must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for 1 minute. A poisoned creature no longer in direct contact with you can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
You can also apply this poison to any piercing weapon as part of an attack with that weapon, though when you hit the poison reacts differently. The target must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or take 2d4 poison damage.
So the Sahuagin that bit Snurk doesn’t take damage from biting, he takes the poisoned condition! Which is excellent...
ahem..
Snurk looks at this hungry beast before him and stabs with his spear in both hands, followed up by a short hop into the air to kick its face.

Ah, yes! Got it.
Snurk is pissed that he just got bit and he fights back. Poking with his spear and jump/ninja kicking it on the face, both attacks land, and the combined effort of the attacks knocks the beast to the ground, dead.
At this point, neither Snurk nor Usul knows what's happening on any of the other shores. They're still in initiative (for the sake of keeping things organized) and Snurk still has some movement left. Would he like to go anywhere?
Nalos will use his action to target Sahuagin 3 with an eldritch blast.
Attack: 18; Damage: 9
And, he'll use his bonus action to try and hit Sahuagin 4 again with the tentacle from Grasp of the Deep.
Attack: 25; Damage: 1
The eldritch blast misses Sahuagin 3 ((dang, that guy is getting lucky...lol)), but the tentacle makes another whipping motion and hits Sahuagin 4, doling out another 3 lightning damage.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Do you think this guy came up with the rumble a minute ago? What did you see him carrying?" Usul says while picking through the body to see what his friend said might be worth something. He also looks around, and notices that the streets are empty and also asks "Where do you think everybody else went?"
investigation 9 - can I also do perception 13 to see if we hear things that are going on down south?
I'll let you use either investigation or perception since we're still in initiative right now.
But, on the creature, you find the shark tooth necklace that he stole from the house he just came out of. It is covered in shark teeth and beaded with tiny shells.
With a 13 perception, you hear the sounds of yelling, but you're not sure where it's coming from. It could be coming from the north or the south...or both? You're not sure. You hear the wind picking up as if a storm front were being pushed this direction, but there are no storm clouds. You can also hear the sounds of waves crashing on the shore. The fact that you can hear them from here tells you that the seas are rougher than they normally get in these parts without a storm being in the area. It all feels...off.
Stanley, having watched what the stranger out near the water had done, decides to try the same. He steps forward 10ft. aiming straight ahead at Sahuagin 2, and casts....

Seeing Sahuagin 2 looking worn down, Darla laughs mockingly at him, "Tha's right ya doaty bawbag, I'd say yer off yer heid for startin' this fight, but you'd've needed more than a thought tae rub together in the first place!" She hollered, casting Vicious Mockery, and moving to stand next to Stanley.
Stanley steps forward, realizing the severity of the situation as two innocent competitors are torn to shreds by these feral fish-like creatures, and a beam of crackling, blue energy lances out toward Sahuagin 2, forming a sustained arc of lightning between him and Stanley. The creature takes 10 lightning damage and is shocked to his knees, sapping his energy to stand and even takes his breath away for a few moments.
As he kneels there, gasping for breath, Darlaberates him with Scottish insults that are laced with painful psychological enchantments that bring up past childhood traumas. With the damage from her mean words penetrating his mind, the electrical impulses in his brain cease working. You see his eyes go wide, then dilate. Then, he stops breathing and falls, face down in the wet sand, dead.

Updated Map of the Southern Shore - Round 2, Turns 6, 7, & 8 - The Sahuagin
Sahuagin 1
Considering he just helped to eviscerate Shark Hunter 2, his head is most likely already facing in an eastward direction. So, he is going to attack Nalos. Not sure he wants to close the gap with Nalosjust yet, he chucks his spear:
Attack: 20 Damage: 4 piercing damage
The spear hits Nalosdirectly in the gut. He is unconscious (and now in death saving throws).
Sahuagin 3
With Nalos behind him, his attention has mostly been in front of where he's standing. He is going to throw his spear at the nearest target he can see: Stanley.
Attack: 9 Damage: 4 piercing damage
Sahuagin 3's spear strikes true, as well, hitting Stanley in the upper right of his chest, causing 6 piercing damage. He screams from a searing pain in his shoulder like he's never felt before.
Snurk perception roll to see if he can hear/identify the direction of the scream (DC12): 20
Usul perception roll to see if he can hear/identify the direction of the scream (DC12): 21
Sahuagin 4
This sahuagin sees that the other two opponents to their plans are down, or nearly there, and so he targets Darlawith his spear to see if he can eliminate or neutralize their final obstacle.
Attack: 4 Damage: 4 piercing damage
((Apparently, these sahuagin decided to be expert marksmen today with these rolls))
The final spear hits its target with a wild and bewildered scream coming from Darlaas she, too, is confronted with a painful sensation like she's never experienced before.
Snurk perception roll to see if he can hear/identify the direction of the scream (DC12): 8
Usul perception roll to see if he can hear/identify the direction of the scream (DC12): 22
In both cases, Usulhears the screams and is able to identify that they came from the south.
This map is to show everyone's position relative to where they're currently at. Darla and Stanley just took 6 damage each and are very hurt, but not unconscious, yet.
Snurk will hold a dash action til Usul gives a heads up on where to go.
and if Usul decides to run the other way? :P
"Snurk! Did you hear that? It sounds like there is more fighting that way. Let's go see!" He will then dash off with Snurk following behind as far as possible, but also stopping behind cover to see what's going on, hopefully without being seen.

In that case, Nalos is next.
