((So Blue was never grappled, didn't take the damage from the first tendril, and would have move if he wanted to get out of the line of fire and thus not be giving it half cover.))

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Blue has a momentary flash of what would happen, if he didn't move, and being in line to get daggered and shot with crossbow bolts by accident doesn't appeal.
The creature shakes off the chill Son puts on him, and the crew has a go. About half of them hit for some amount of damage.

Mark grits his teeth and fights to bring his weapon around, but he's squeezed too tight. The vines and soil crush down on him, but he manages to fight back... but it's not enough, and his body begins to relax into unconsciousness.
15 > 7 bludgeoning is enough to drop Mark unless you've anything you can do.
It lashes out hungrily at the axebeak that has appeared before it, the viney tendrils slamming Blue back into his genasi form.
Attack: 21 Damage: 10
Attack: 11 Damage: 13
((Since the second hit was only an 11, while it would have been enough to grapple and pull the axebeak in, 11 wouldn't have been enough to hit Blue, so I'm going to say you slip through its grasp and remain un-grappled.))

The creature gets a bit frosty, but it quickly flakes off.
The captain pulls free another dagger and flips it at the creature.
Attack: 23 Damage: 8
The sailors with crossbows fire again, those who had been throwing other projectiles seemingly out and switching to melee weapons, ready should they get charged.
Attack: 16 Damage: 5
Attack: 11 Damage: 5
Attack: 18 Damage: 6
Attack: 17 Damage: 6
The creature seems to be getting somewhat less cohesive, but it's still intact!

Blue will morph into an axe beak, throwing a lil balm of the summer court on himself beforehand to top it off.

Aware of how bad his aim has been, Talon shakes his head trying to knock a loose gear back in its place and remember a better way to help.

Talon, wracking his brain, pieces together a few loose threads, and is certain he can produce a horrid squawking that might drive off the vine pile.

Talon gets squawking but there's no sound as he puts into in all the hate for the thing attacking his friends.

Blue heals up and shifts back to bird form.
((Blue didn't originally have healing word, it was his Balm, but you can certainly have learned/prepared that for today.))
