A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Master of Waves. When a creature attempts to leave The Death's Grasp they must make a DC 20 Strength save or be knocked 10 feet back onto the ship and it uses the rest of their movement so they can't escape.

• Call of the Damned (Costs 2 Actions): Captain Valtor raises his cutlass and lets out a bone-chilling call. Up to 6 undead creatures of CR 5 or lower within 120 feet of Captain Valtor are immediately animated and become under his control. The undead creatures appear anywhere within 60 feet of Captain Valtor.

• Ship's Maneuver (Costs 2 Actions): Captain Valtor commands his ship to move up to its speed, or make a 90-degree turn without losing speed.

• Blade Storm (Costs 3 Actions): Captain Valtor swings his cutlass in a wide arc, attacking all creatures within 10 feet of him. Each creature in the area must make a DC 25 Dexterity saving throw, taking 20 (6d6) slashing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Summon the Dragon Turtle: Captain Valtor takes out a horn and blows it with all his might, calling forth a powerful ally. On the next initiative count 20, an adult dragon turtle appears within 120 feet of Captain Valtor. The dragon turtle is charmed by Captain Valtor and acts immediately after him.
