Nikolai is more comfortable in the forest. Out on the plains they can't sneak very easy. But, at least nothing can sneak up on them very easily either, unless... coming in so the sun blinds them?
"Well, Michael, one way to know is to make a wish. If it nothing happens then I guess it never had any or they got all used up."

You see my quandary? test it on something of lesser value and waste it or wait till we really really need it and then find out it won't have any wishes. I'm caught between a rock and a hard place.
Michael thinks for a little bit...
do you think that the Catacombs could tell me? I wonder how much they would charge?
Anna Morphling (Hugh C) -- HP 113/113 -- 30/18/25 CMD : 30 Monday July 6th, 2020 1:16:21 PM
Anna says, "What would happen if I pulled a scroll of Barnum's appraisal from my bag of tricks and just cast it on your blade? Do you think that would tell us if the blade had any wishes on it?"
DM Warren - Vanished into the Knight Map Monday July 6th, 2020 5:16:03 PM
The night of camping allows the Agents to assess their recent discoveries a bit more, and while Pru doesn't know the exact metrics of the luckblade, she can tell there isn't enough power in its magical aura for there to be any wishes left. If there had been, it's former owner probably wouldn't have been eaten by trees.
The Agents pass the night as pleasantly as they can, and see no sign of any predators or prey in the area, and nothing disturbs them in the night. The next day is more of the same. Pompous finds no convenient evidence of dragon passage nearby the camp, but efforts during the day's travel do discover more sign more of less following the road as it curves southward.
As the day draws long, you begin to smell salt on the wind, evidence that you are drawing closer to the sea.
Trayvin AC 29/14 touch Hp 161/161(BrianZ) Monday July 6th, 2020 9:05:03 PM Sorry Michael, about the wishes. At least the blade is still magic. Maybe the catacombs can recharge it?

Pru makes sure her Protection wand is ready to hand. "What do you think?" she asks her companions. "Camp one more night, or seek the dragon out right away?"

I hope he hasn't crossed the bay. that will make it a lot harder to track him and we will either have to find a boat or go around the peninsula to pick the trail back up.

"Well, Michael, you can always try making ONE wish that the blade has THREE wishes, hehe! Can't go wrong there. But, oh well."
As they smell salt in the air, Nikolai suggests, "We should camp here. We are probably going to have to procure the services of a boat. I'd rather have more daytime at hand to go looking."
Anna Morphling (Hugh C) -- HP 113/113 -- 30/18/25 CMD : 30 Tuesday July 7th, 2020 2:48:19 AM
Anna says, "I can't help but feel I heard a story once where a guy finds a magic lamp with a genie and one of the stipulations about what could be wished for was you couldn't wish for more wishes. Are Luck Blades like Genies? Do you think I'll need to take an aquatic form to continue our pursuit when I use Queen's Minions? Sadly all the aquatic forms I can take indefinitely do not allow more than a 30 foot swim speed. Don't think that is fast enough to keep up with a ship, is it?"

Every 12 hours now Sigvar casts Greater Magic Weapon on his sword making it +3 for the next 12 hours. This is a continual process, Cast at dawn and dinner time.
DM Warren - Vanished into the Knight Map Tuesday July 7th, 2020 5:20:20 PM Noted for Sigvar's weapon buff - any other new buffs amidst the party? Also for clarification, please note any camping practices now that you're sleeping in the mansion. Any watches still happening, inside or out? Just want to get this all clear for the party.
Thanks!
The Agents, fairly confident that they're dealing with Slartanus again, start thinking back on their previous encounters with him. If they do need a ship, then Wedding City ( a couple more days down the coast road) would be the best bet for hiring one.
They also think about preparing for some underwater scouting, in case his lair is in some below water caves. For now, they are following the road though, following their best current information on the dragon's route.
Prudence Gundle [AC 22; HP 118/118] Tuesday July 7th, 2020 9:54:21 PM
Pru is willing to cast the Mansion, or not, as her friends prefer. Not being able to see out is a definite drawback, but on the other hand, it would be very difficult for anyone to find them.
Anna Morphling (Hugh C) -- HP 113/113 -- 30/18/25 CMD : 30 Tuesday July 7th, 2020 11:56:29 PM
Anna says to Pru, "Well I have long lasting darkvision and I can indefinitely take the form of a myriad of animals so you guys could designate me as watch morphling outside while you slept inside if that would make you feel better about the whole mansion thing."

No point in getting lax with the sentry duty just because of the security of the Mansion, so Nikolai offers to keep First Watch and others volunteer to take the next ones. Need only one per watch, he concludes, with Anna outside also.
"By Land or by Sea, we'll play it by ear. If by sea, looks like on the map Wedding City would be our best bet. Problem is, if by sea, then where? all the way across? Along the coast? North? South? Let's keep asking everyone we meet, farmer, traveler, etc. if they saw anything like a flying dragon."
DM Warren - Vanished into the Knight Map Wednesday July 8th, 2020 4:18:23 PM
Nikolai quickly lays out a plan for gathering information as soon as they encounter someone on the road, or once they get to the city. Someone is bound to have noticed a dragon hanging around, right?
The Agents also establish a watch order for the night, with Anna lurking outside in rotating stealthy animal forms and a backup set of eyes.
The last night of journey before reaching Wedding City has them on the road near the beach, where it winds along the water with cool ocean breezes, bird calls, and salt smells. The last to the east begins to rise up again to form some cliffs, while the road stays down below until it reaches the city.
The Agents settle down to camp and expect to be in town late in the day tomorrow.
To confirm - Watch order is:
1) Anna and Nikolai 2) Anna and ?? 3) Anna and ?? additional watches??

Michael retires early so that he can take the last watch with Anna. Up early he takes the time to cook a good breakfast for his companions and friends. the mansion is stocked, Correct? he does this after watch has ended but before everyone is up.
he takes his time, (take 10) and makes sure everything is right 10+10=20.

"I could try to cast a Telepathic Bond," Pru says. "That might let those inside the mansion communicate with anyone left outside. But it only works if we're on the same plane, and I'm not sure inside the mansion counts as being on this plane. I guess we could find out."

Anna says, "I don't see what we have to lose beside your spell. I mean I don't need to sleep as long as I get sunlight so I'll hang around outside. It was always my intention when I became a plant-kin to act as a sentinel when we decided to rest. Plus my ability to shape shift means I can maintain watch as different animals gaining their scent and enhanced vision capabilities. With me asking my lady for a beast shape at will SLA each morning I can indefinitely stay in these forms."
As she watches throughout the night she disguises herself as varying animals preferring small animals for their stealth bonuses but even as a small animal she doesn't seem to do well at hiding. Still she makes a very convincing small animal.

Nikolai approves of Anna's choices, "Whatever you feel comfortable with, Anna."
Nikolai remembers last time they were in Wedding City and the special chocolate the city has to offer and his mouth salivates.

Sigvar will take any watch he is needed on. He is not worried about not being able to see outside when exiting the mansion. His armor is thick and can turn away most attacks, so him leading the way out is a natural choice.
DM Warren - Vanished into the Knight Map Thursday July 9th, 2020 5:12:46 PM per the reading of Mage's Mansion, it's an extradimensional space, not on any plane - thus, you would not be on the same plane for the use of a telepathic bond spell.
During the middle of third watch, Michael and Anna hear the noise of the ocean begin to change. It sounds like singing originating from the edge of the water. It's especially enticing to Michael though, and he feels the urge to start walking out towards the water.
Michael, before ending watch and making breakfast, please make a DC20 Will Save

Wow Anna, that sure is some pretty singing. kinda makes me want to go down there. suspiciously so.. I mean I've heard love songs before, but this stuff's got me feeling kind of...randy. probably best if I don't go see whos singing.

Anna says, "You seem awful sure of yourself. Tell me how do you feel about green women?" She teases Michael playfully.
(Know: Arcana = 28 ; wrt to the singing) (Know: Nature = 29 ; wrt to the singing)
As she listens to the eerie music she thinks back to what she may know about it from a magical or natural perspective.
If anything comes to mind she tells Michael what she thinks is and if whatever it is, is hazardous to travellers she says, "I don't feel comfortable leaving that creature around to do harm. You may be able to resist its pull but the next person might not be so lucky. Shall I go fly down there to see what it is while we raise the others to take help take care of it or should I scout first, come back and then we figure our next move"
Prudence Gundle [AC 22; HP 118/118] Friday July 10th, 2020 12:39:12 AM
As it turns out Telepathic Bond only lasts 10 minutes/level. Pru can use the Extend Spell metamagic feat, but the spell will still only last a total of 300 minutes, or 5 hours. Better than nothing, so she does cast it to include herself, Anna, Nikolai, and up to three more people who want to be included.
But but the middle of the third watch, it has probably expired. Pru is asleep.

While the others sleep soundly, Michael and Anna are having quite the adventure.
It was such lovely music. Michael couldn't help but walk towards the ocean. It just sounded so beautiful. Fortunately the seagull swooping him is enough to bring him to his senses.
In the shallow waters ahead of him he can see two things that certainly aren't beautiful. It's difficult to even describe. They look like some sort of large green crabs with sharp teeth, covered in moss, and each with three heads sticking out of it. Lurking in the shallows they would have been very difficult to see. When they're on the surface though you can't miss them.
Anna is clever enough to recognize them as Seaweed Sirens. Or at least, she's pretty sure they are.
What Michael thought sounded lovely now sounds just plain awful! All six heads are singing and talking, but the words are gibberish and don't even make sense. You're not even sure what languages they're speaking.
What you are sure of though is that all eyes - and there are a lot of them - are on Michael (Gaze attack. Michael to make 2 x Will Saves vs DC22. Fail 1 = Staggered for 2 rounds. Fail both = Staggered for 4 rounds)
----------------- OOC: Phew! Looks like we're all on the same page. Went back to using a square grid for the map. It was a bit tricky showing 'large' creatures on the hex grid, and this way also gives you coordinates.
The portal to the mansion is open though neither side can hear/see what is happening on the other and no monsters may enter.

(37 vs CMD; +4 from grab; +2 huge; +3 size bonus increase) either way the huge 10,000 pound 30 foot long dinosaur succeeds in picking up the small halfling. She then motors 50 feet away from the sirens with her back to them (OOC: looks like if you turn your back to a creature with a gaze attack you don't have to worry about it but they gain concealment against you) and towards the door of the manse. If the brown thing on the map is the Manse portal she goes through it and says to her friends "Hey you guys; Michael and I got attacked by some Seaweed Sirens and would like some backup"
Action Summary: 1 standard action : use beast shape III to turn into an Allosaur; beast shape 1 is dismissed as part of this process 1 heroic standard action: pick up or grapple Michael 1 move action : 50 feet with back to seaward sirens towards the door of the manse (her 50 foot move puts her partially off the map; unless that brown thing is the manse portal in which case she can totally go through the door and does so)

Twas the third round of combat and everyone's posted. The DM is happy and no-one is roasted.
The adventurers are nestled all snug in their mansion, while Anna and Michael are stuck in the action.
The sirens stern gaze has staggered the rogue and the trouble he's in is truly a load
But Anna comes quickly to render some aid, her awesome heroics cannot be downplayed
She gathers him up in her huge dino mouth, then turns on her heels and bolts for the south
Now safe inside she tells of the plight. So what to do now? Will this be a fight?

A groggy Sigvar rolls over to see a 50' tall Allosaurs in the house. His heart skips a beat before he realizes that they are safe in the Farm house and that this MUST be Anna. The dinosaur tries to say something but most of it is garbled by the thing she is chewing on. " Anna, stop talking with your mouth full. ...What's going on? You were attacked? Whats a seaweed siren?" With the words 'attacked' and her plea for help, Sigvar rolls out of bed and looks to his armor. "[/b] Do I have time to get dressed first or is Michael still out there?"[/b]
OOC I still have phantom rolls in my die rolls box. Am I the only one seeing them or do they show up for you guys too? I must have mashed that button ALOT when it wouldn't roll for me.

Roused from a sound sleep [presumably], Pru dresses quickly and moves to the foyer. "Seaweed sirens?" she says around an enormous yawn, "what are those?"

Sweet little duckies all swimming in a row Up comes a gator, and down one goes...
'Snort, grumph, ah... wha...' Nikolai wakens when one of his teammates stops by and gives him a shake and says something about some strange commotion outside and a purple dinosaur inside... what? Pruple? no Purple! oh.
Nikolai joins the impromptu meeting to hear what's going on outside.
"These seaweed sirens seem to be quite a danger to the people here. We can get better cooperation if we show the people who live here that we've saved them from these horrible creatures. Best tale the time and get rid of them," Nikolai states.
Anna Morphling (Hugh C) -- HP 113/113 -- 32/13/31 CMD 34 Friday July 17th, 2020 1:00:15 AM
Anna gingerly puts her dinosaur head down and sets Michael down on the floor.
She then answers her friends her mouth empty, "Well they have a gaze attack that staggers you; charmed Michael into going down and seeing what was up in the first place and I'm pretty sure if they are what I think they are they have some ranged attack options in addition to bite and trampling and they like to eat intelligent creaturea and humanoids so it would probably be a good idea to take care of them lest the next travellers that come this way get eaten. If you think we can take them that is. I think we can."

Anna and Michael finally have a chance to breathe. They wake the others from their sleep and give them the basic rundown as to what is going on outside.
Seaweed sirens? What are they? Anna gives a good summary on what they normally look like and do.
There is a consensus though: they're dangerous and innocent people might get hurt if they are left untended.
How will our heroes proceed though? You are safe in your mansion after all
Sigvar Ironhorn (David F) AC 35 (T 13, FF 33) CMD 33 HP 174/174 Character Sheet Friday July 17th, 2020 10:48:14 AM " OK, So when we go at them, I need you all to gather either around me, or Trayvin. Trayvin, you have a Magic Circle Against Evil prepared right? I think you normally do. Anyway, My anti-charm aura, and the magic circle I will project will guard the melee folks and Travin can hang back a bit with the ranged people. Sound good?" " Can someone train me in blind fighting. We have group skills from the Fist, lets use them. Also if things go badly do we have some water breathing?"
Sigvar starts donning his plate. His Holy Sword spell will provide the magic circle and his arm will provide the damage to send these things to meet Gargul.
OOC ha, after you mentioned it the rolls stopped showing up. I think it was because the button got mashed so much while I was trying to roll perception for watch and it wouldn't roll
Prudence Gundle [AC 22; HP 118/118] Friday July 17th, 2020 3:58:22 PM
"I can cast Darkvision on you, if that will help," Pru tells Sigvar. "I don't really have anything for underwater, but I can cast Fly on people. It might be easier to engage with them flying over the water rather than trying to go through it."
Trayvin AC 29/14 touch Hp 161/161(BrianZ) Friday July 17th, 2020 8:04:26 PM Yes, I have that one. I can cast silence also, it may be effective against what they used on Michael. You will need to move away from me though to cast most spells. If these things like to eat intelligent creatures and humanoids, then I think we need to take them down.
Nikolai (JonathanT) AC 25 Tch 19 Ffted 22 HP 106/106 CMD 34/36(Grapple/Trip/Disarm) Friday July 17th, 2020 11:56:20 PM
Nikolai thinks for a minute then adds, "Aren't we going at this the wrong way? Like meeting them on THEIR ground? Why not try to lure them onto OUR ground first? If we make the water too hot for them, won't they come on shore? That is if there is a way to make the water around them boiling hot. Just an idea. Or place a wall of force or stone in the water behind them to keep them in the shallows, that would help us a bit too.
We can try to pretend to be enchanted but not go into the water and just stand on the shore, that might bring them out. All standing as a group around Sigvar and Trayvin, swaying back and forth, singing along with them... that might give them the confidence that we are fodder just for the taking.
Any other ideas?"
Anna Morphling (Hugh C) -- HP 113/113 -- 32/13/31 CMD 34 Saturday July 18th, 2020 2:35:05 AM
Anna says, "Sadly any ability I have the ability to grant only impacts myself and that includes water breathing. As for making the water too hot that is interesting but is there any spells for heating water? I mean there is a spell for heating metal but I don't know if there is anything for heating water."

Michael shakes himself of the horror of the gross things. it's like finding a bug in a piece of cake.
I'd be willing to train with you in blind fighting Sigvar. as we get more experienced we are going to run into things where it would be useful. we are a good team, if we train together on it, we can do great things.

The party are safe in the mansion and go through different battle strategies that might help.
Magic Circle Against Evil, an anti-charm aura, silence, and pretending to be enchanted are just some of the ideas that are thrown about.
The group are yet to agree on a strategy and for the moment are happy to put all options on the table.
It's still very early morning. By now the sun would have started to rise. Darkvision won't be necessary.
" Well.." Pompous offers... " ... my new trinket offers me some spell immunity but I'm not sure if that would work here.. but I also have these... "
Pompous shows his hands... Tatoos are visible on the top of both hands, still fresh from the Catacombs,,,,
" With the one on the right I can protect myself from evil... the one on the left aligns my bow with the powers of good. "
Pompous strings his bow...
" I'll take the rear and shoot fired arrows at the creatures. I could use my armor to fly above them but I'm likely better off on the ground... "
" Couldn't we just stuff cotton in our ears to by pass their charm songs? Just a thought... "

With everyone leaving, Nikolai follows despite no plan. His ideas apparently ignored as no one offered that they could do one thing or another of the plan.
"I guess we will tackle them the same way we always do. Play it by ear and trust we win."

The book-ish people might be here for a while discussing strategies and tactics, but Sigvar isn't keen to wait. He activates his holy sword and steps out the portal.
Pru and Nikolai seem quite surprised by it but go along. Trayvin casts a defensive spell and Michael is concerned about breakfast (first breakfast or second breakfast?). Anna plods along still in dino-form. Pompous had some ideas but the others have already started leaving the mansion.
The party emerge from the mansion into the chilly morning air. There is enough light to be able to clearly see the surrounds. Two seaweed sirens still sit nestled in the water.
As soon as Sigvar is out the door the sirens start making a tremendous noise. It makes it hard to concentrate*.
They focus their attention on the taur sending a wave of sonic beams at him (Sigvar gets hit for 22pts sonic damage!)
Please note: *Cacophony: Casting within 100 feet of a seaweed siren requires a concentration check (DC 15 + the level of the spell being cast). All other concentration checks and Perception checks involving hearing made inside the aura have their DCs increased by

Sigvar waits for Trayvin to exit the mansion so that there is a second circle to protect the others from being charmed. He then flies over to the nearest siren and power attack, vital strikes it. If he has enough movement he flies as far to it's opposite side as he an to allow others to flank with him. Attack Hits AC 34 for 37 damage + 9 holy damage.

Hearing the chaotic noise coming from the creatures, Trayvin thinks it is a good idea to go ahead with the silence.
After casting the spell, he lets any Agent who intends to get in close to the creatures to take it from him. Otherwise he positions himself to defend against their sonic attacks.

hasted, Michael utilizes his Celestial armor's fly feat to engage the Sirens on top of the water. He attempts to flank with Sigvar and focuses on the one he is attacking. I don't think we will make it this round so Michael attempts total defense and tries to avoid AOO with Acrobatics.

Sigvar moves into the fray, hastily flying towards the nearest siren and hacking into it.
Michael is right behind him. He can't quite get into a flanking position right now, but he gets close. He prepares to defend himself against an attack.
Pru, Pompous and Trayvin all stand back by the mansion casting spells.
Nikolai draws his bow and gets ready to start raining them down on the sirens.
Anna stomps in an chomps at the siren to the west. She doesn't manage to grapple it, but does manage to rip a chuck of seaweed away. It tastes terrible.
The enemy act!
The siren next to Anna babbles away, making an absolute racket. In the words though Anna can hear something (Use SLAs defensively. Hit TouchAC35. Anna to make a Will Save vs DC18 or be cursed! Curse: Each turn she has a 50% chance to act normally, otherwise she can take no action. Anna to also make a Will Save vs DC18 or be confused!)

Each siren then back away and partially submerge themselves, so that only their top halves can be seen. (5ft step)
Things start to look a little worse when a third siren surfaces. It attack Anna and hurts her ears a little (Hit AC33. Anna takes 16pts sonic damage)

Sigvar steps in to deliver a number of good hits on the siren. Highlight to display spoiler: {With no post from Michael I can't allow flanking. For him to flank would mean dropping down to sea level, moving into melee range and becoming the target this round. Needs to be his call}
Pompous sends a nicely worded barb the way of the sirens, and follows up with a whole heap of nicely aimed arrows too! It's tough though and stays breathing. Do all it's heads breathe? Probably.
Nikolai tries shooting as well, but the noise is so bad that he has trouble focusing on his target. His arrow goes wide and sizzles harmlessly into the water.
Trayvin backs up as far as he can and considers casting a spell. Highlight to display spoiler: {SMVII has a 1 round casting time. You can't take a move action and start casting in the same round, unless you have a special ability}
Anna saves against the spells and takes on a different form: one that can regenerate damage. She'll be good as new in no time!
Pru whips out a classic spell: fireball! Maybe it's the water or maybe they saw her casting it, but the sirens dodge most of the flames (Ref Saves: 20, 21)
The enemy act...
Siren 1 tries to confuse that annoying person that's causing all the silence. It gazes at Nikolai as it carefully descends into the water, fully submerging itself (Nikolai to make a Will Save vs DC18 or be confused! Nikolai to make a Will Save vs DC22 or be staggered for 4 rounds!).
Siren 2 has seen better days. It's barely clinging to life right now. It is intelligent though. That big minotaur looks really well protected. There has to be something more squishy around here somewhere. Hey, that caster just made fire! The siren focuses in on Pru sendin three sonic beams at the sorceror! (Hit AC27,28,36. Pru takes 23 + 15 + 20 pts sonic damage! Pru to make a Will Save vs DC18 or be confused!). Like the first one, the siren then submerges into the water.
Siren 3 moves closer to Sigvar and tries to curse and confuse him! (Hit TouchAC22. Sigvar to make a Will Save vs DC18 or be cursed! Curse: Each turn he has a 50% chance to act normally, otherwise he can take no action. Sigvar to also make a Will Save vs DC18 or be confused!). It starts a Cacophony to keep things loud.
Unfortunately for Sigvar, the newly emerged Sired 4 attempts the same. (Hit TouchAC27. Sigvar to make a Will Save vs DC18 or be cursed! Curse: Each turn he has a 50% chance to act normally, otherwise he can take no action. Sigvar to also make a Will Save vs DC18 or be confused!). It starts a Cacophony to try and sing in key with Siren 3. The key? Awful.
Please note: *Cacophony: Casting within 100 feet of a seaweed siren requires a concentration check (DC 15 + the level of the spell being cast). All other concentration checks and Perception checks involving hearing made inside the aura have their DCs increased by 5.

Nikolai shrugs off the gaze attacks by using the mental control discipline of the Monk Masters. "So, you hide under water, eh? Can't face us in a square fight?" Not being able to hear himself is strange, but nevertheless, he dives into the water swimming to 8J and remains submerged. Base Move 90' Move to 8J.
He hopes the 20' silence radius will affect creature 1 and 3, and being under water their gaze attack won't work so well.

Sigvar dives into the water in pursuit of the siren. With his tremendous reach he is able to stab at it safely from range. Would the term "sea cow" be offensive to a minotaur? We'll leave that for another day.
Pompous just goes to town on siren #3. 5 arrows with absolute precision, shot in the space of just 6 seconds. Incredible! Despite the onslaught, the siren is still alive.
Pru feels a little worse for wear and that unnatural noise keeps her from casting any more spells.
Trayvin concentrates on a summoning spell. At his distance he feels pretty safe that he can't be reached.
Michael goes to lay into the creature but finds a slight problem. It's fully submerged. He can't reach it without diving into the water himself.
Nikolai pursues the siren, not content to let it hide in the water.
Anna dips her toes/tendrils in the water and bites at the siren near her.
The enemy act!
Things aren't going well for the squishy sirens. On land they open themselves up to too many hostiles. Spread out they're easy pickin's. Now they have meat in the water though. Time to eat!
Siren 1 limply moves away from Anna to get within 10ft of Nikolai, gazing deep into his soul. The water isn't clear, so vision is hampered but at 10ft away it's close enough to see. (OOC: Since the water is murky and dark, let's go with the range of the gaze attack halved to just 15ft. Nikolai to make a Will Save vs DC22 or be staggered for 4 rounds!)
Siren 2 knows it's in trouble, but isn't going down without a fight. It paddles to Sigvar and bites him as hard as it can (5ft step. Hit AC42. Sigvar takes 28pts damage!)
Siren 3 decides to swim up to Nikolai and hopefully do something about the coin. It sure does it's best, biting him heavily around the face and ears! (Hit AC45. Nat20. Crit confirmed on AC33. Nikolai takes 22 + 34pts damage! Nikolai to make a DC35 Fort Save! Pass = deafened for 1 round. Fail = Permanently deaf!) Highlight to display spoiler: {I couldn't find anything that had Deafening Critical as a sound/noise/sonic attack, so I don't think a silence spell protects against it}
Siren 4 sees how successful the other sirens are with their bites, so swims up to Sigvar to try for itself (Provokes an AoO from Sigvar. Hit AC37. Sigvar takes 29pts damage!)
Siren 5 arrives on scene and goes straight for Nikolai. (Hit AC36. Nikolai takes 25pts damage!)
All of the sirens are now fully submerged and can't be seen on the surface. The good news for those up top though is that there is no longer a cacophony effect on the surface.
Please note: *Cacophony: Casting within 100 feet of a seaweed siren requires a concentration check (DC 15 + the level of the spell being cast). All other concentration checks and Perception checks involving hearing made inside the aura have their DCs increased by 5.

Seeing that all of the targets and most of the party are now under water, Pompous feels frustrated. Archery is not know for it's effectiveness under water. Besides, Pompous really doesn't want to get his hair wet.
" Well... what a revolting development this is... "
The ranger holds true and waits for a creature to pop it's head back up before firing.

well ow... Sigvar swiftly lays hands on himself healing 28 damage and solving plenty of afflictions he doesn't have. He can still feel the pain of the bites though. As the second creature closes in he strikes out at it scoring what amounts to a superficial wound. AoO hits AC 33 for 30 damage +4 holy. He holds his place hoping Michael would have used last turn to reorient himself to strike underwater and this round the rogue will finish the wounded one. Thus Sigvar turns most of his attention to the new threat.

"All right, let's try that again without the noise," Pru says.
She casts Reverse Gravity.
She can target the area where all five sirens are, which will also include Sigvar and Nikolai (sorry, guys!). She can leave Michael out of the area.
Hopefully, the sirens, the water, and maybe some really confused fish will begin floating upward and the sirens will have less cover. Anyway that's Pru's thinking.

As I read the combat section of the Pathfinder doc, it says that an unarmed attack promotes an AOO. Since Michael was flanking it with Sigvar he gets an AOO as well, and since it exposed itself to bite Sigvar, he get an attack for that as well.

Blood swirls in the water around Nikolai as three of the abominable three headed seaweed creatures converge on Nikolai. He is able to shrug off a gaze attack but the bites are horrendous.
However, he still hangs on. Barely.
Oddly enough, just as he is about to make a strategic retreat, he starts floating upwards and out of the water! ['unattached objects and creatures...']
He was going to swim away, but now he'd have to fly away, but he can't fly. So, Nikolai takes advantage of the weird situation and using both feet kicks out at Siren5, not for damage, but to push himself away.
Kick at Siren5 to push himself way vs DC? = 30 At the same time he uses a Ki point for extra protection (+4 dodge) Ki 8/9 Also, Mobility grants a +4 AC bonus when moving in/out/within a threatened area.
New AC is 34
OOC: I'd get at least a 5' step out of this but hopping for a lot more. DM can judge how much distance a push will get with a Strength of 17, strength bonus +3. Just kicking to push away could be a touch attack.

Michael stays up top, ready to attack anything that surfaces. Highlight to display spoiler: {It's been mentioned a few times now - including by Sigvar - that the siren is underwater. Michael needs to move underwater to be able to attack it. Also, a natural attack is different to an unarmed attack and doesn't provoke an AoO}
Trayvin finishes summoning and brings a greater water elemental into play. He conjures it to appear behind the siren attacking Sigvar so that they can flank it. It attacks but misses with both slams.
Sigvar can see the blood flowing from his arms but a quick touch heals some of that up. Sigvar realises that as these creatures aren't evil that his sword isn't dealing the holy damage he so wishes it would. He finishes off the dying siren before putting the hurt on another one.
Pru then does something kinda interesting. She casts a reverse gravity spell covering the combat area. It does raise a few interesting questions. Line of sight, line of effect, how can she tell which squares the underwater enemies are in? But let's just go with the 'rule-of-cool'. Everything in that area rises 10ft upwards such there there is a 10ft high, 20ft wide and 80ft long, rectangular block of water atop the ocean. Like a swimming pool with invisible sides, if you will. The sirens, Sigvar and Nikolai are still considered underwater even if they are 10ft above where the ocean should be. Hero point for Pru for a very clever way to get back in the battle!.
Nikolai has taken a real beating. The reverse gravity spell has propelled him upwards, but he is still alongside two very angry (albeit confused) seaweed sirens. He decides that now is the time for a strategic retreat. He pushes himself away from one of the sirens as hard as he can. Both snap their jaws at him as he sails past, but neither connects with the monk (AoOs Hit AC29 and 32. Both miss!). Nikolai ends up treading water, quite near the shore.
Anna is able to reach the nearest siren, even if it is a little higher now. It's not a lot of damage, but every bit adds up.
The reverse gravity has also popped the sirens up nicely for Pompous to take a few shots at. They're still surrounded by water which makes them very tricky to see, and the reverse gravity isn't helping either, but he manages to get two good shots on the one near Anna (Highlight to display spoiler: {We'll say that any on the south of the gravity area only have Improved Cover rather than Total Cover})
The enemy act!
Siren 1 swims downwards through reversed water to get alongside Anna. It bites at her and does a little damage. Nothing that won't regenerate. (Provokes an AoO from Anna. Hit AC34. Anna takes 32pts damage!
Siren 3 swims over to attack Sigvar. It bites at him but all it gets is a mouthful of water (Provokes an AoO from Sigvar. Hit AC32=Miss!)
Siren 4 isn't about to give up. It too bites at Sigvar and also misses (Hit AC34=Miss!)
Siren 5 swims as fast as it can to get over near Anna, but is too puffed to be able to attack yet (Provokes an AoO from Anna)

Clearly this is getting out of hand. Sigvar is now underwater, above the level of the ocean and last time he saw Nikolai The man was being devoured. This is bad. He is fairly sure he can weather their attacks but Nikolai needs healing, or a diversion. He can't reach the thumb to heal him, but he hopes ha can draw enough ire from the 2 critters up here to let Nikolai get away. On the bright side, A friend just showed up and Sigvar can use that to his advantage. First he takes a "5'step" to gain flanking on both critters ( the elemental has 15 foot reach so it can threaten both of them, and after the step he is in line with the elemental to flank). Next he spends a fraction of a second (swift action, Sigvar gains the advantages of the feat, the elemental does not) to train the elemental in Fist tactics, teaching it he Outflank maneuver for just this round, it should be enough. He then Heroically, and defensively casts Divine Favor, granting his attacks more accuracy and power. He then attacks first Critter 3 until it is dead and then Critter 4.

Pru would like to help Anna, but she can't see the targets. She could hit the whole area, of course, but that would mean hitting Anna.
Instead, she helps Sigvar and Michael. She casts a full spread of Magic Missiles at Siren #4, then follows it with a spread of Quickened Magic Missiles. Siren 4 takes a total of 36 force damage.

Michaels desire to help his friends is at war with his rouges instinct to "never play another mans game" freezing him out from going in the water. then the water comes to him! rising above sea level and engulfing Sigvar Michael gets a good view of his big minotaur friend slaughtering the sirens. He also sees the two sirens persuing his Thumb, so he starts flying over towards Nikolai to give him some relief. He interposed himself between his Thumb and the sirens.

Pru goes with the ol' faithful magic missiles. They strike Siren 4 quite solidly.
The water elemental is now in a good position, and flanking with Sigvar makes a big difference. It hits the siren from behind and lands both slams.
Sigvar then goes nuts. In the blink of an eye he has moved, cast a spell, trained the elemental a little, and ultimately stabbed one of the sirens so many times it would be impossible to put it back together again. The other siren fares a little better and isn't sent to the afterlife.
Until Pompous steps in, of course. Even shooting into a block of water the ranger is just too good of a shot. Two arrows pierce the siren and come out the other side, leaving a siren corpse floating by Sigvar's face.
Michael flies around to where the injured thumb gasps for air. He interposes himself and is ready to take any blow that would be intended for Nikolai.
Nikolai for his part is just happy to breath again. He heals himself and swims to the safety of the shore.
Anna takes advantage of the movement of the sirens and finally gets one grappled! She bites savagely at it and gives it a small tentacle slap (You are correct. Half-damage for bludgeoning)
What a great round for the party!
The enemy act...
Siren 1 may be grappled, but it's still got a bite on it. It chomps into Anna-plant (Hit AC41. Anna takes 31pts damage!)
Siren 5 goes for it and tries to do some serious damage to Anna. Fortunately it misses. (Power attack. Hit AC30=Miss!)

Sigvar isn't going to leave Anna alone to fight 2 of these things. He flies out of the water in the air, catches himself before falling to the ground and flies over to give her a hand. He can't attack ( I don't think he has enough move to do all this in one move action) But he can menace the remaining siren and give her flanking. He heals himself (Swift lay on hands for 30 healing) as he flies over to her.
Prudence Gundle [AC 22; HP 50/118] Tuesday July 28th, 2020 1:31:37 PM
Pru is right back where she started. She can't see any targets, and an area attack would hurt her friends. She briefly considers another Reverse Gravity, but concludes it would do more harm than good.
She very much wants to hurry to Nikolai's side, but that's a terrible idea because Nikolai is the center of the Silence, and she couldn't do anything once she got there.
Instead, she hurries over to Pompous (an easy single move for a Hasted person). "Hey, Pompous, do you want to be able to fly?" she asks. If Pompous agrees, she casts Fly on him. If not, she looks around for some other way to be useful.

The party start moving into position to finish the last two sirens off.
Sigvar flies over to join the battle while Nikolai gets closer to tend to Anna.
Pru considers reversing some more gravity but everyone is pretty close to each other by now. Could do more harm than good. She offers to aid Pompous with a spell but he declines. Instead, he waits to see if any either of the sirens surface so he can get a shot.
Trayvin's water elemental circles around and damages siren #5.
Anna gets a very good grip on the siren she grapples and pins it in close.
The enemy act...
Siren 1 does what it can to turn the grapple around (CMB35 vs Anna's CMD of 34=Success! Siren #1 is now the grappler!)
Siren 5 takes a step closer to the shore and tries once again to rip into Anna. It does a better job of it this time (Power attack. Hit AC39. Crit not confirmed on AC24. Anna takes 40pts damage (also need to update your header for the dmg last round and a few rounds of your regen ability))
The sirens are now comprehensively surrounded. You get the feeling it isn't going to take the party long to finish this fight!

Sigvar, the water elemental and Michael take care of one of the sirens. Pompous and Pru stay on alert, while Anna gets herself to a safe distance where she can get some much needed healing from Nikolai.
Only siren 5 remains and it isn't crazy enough to try and take on the whole party by itself. It tries to flee the scene, withdrawing as far as it can (Withdraw action still provokes AoOs from Sigvar and the Water Elemental. No flanking bonuses)

Sigvar gives the siren a parting shot as the water elemental takes after it in pursuit.
The siren and elemental will continue to flee from the shoreline and disappear far into the water. In all likelihood the elemental will clobber it to death before the summoning spell ends. Even if it doesn't, it will be the last anyone sees of that siren around here again.
The party gather around to take stock of the situation. There are some cuts, grazes and open wounds. Michael's intentional act to camouflage his face with sand is impressive.
Chopped up siren pieces float on the surface of the water.
The beach is quiet once more. No loud noises. Just the gentle sound of small waves lapping at the shore.

The party retire to the comfort of the mansion.
Which is sweeter: the healing dished out by Trayvin's channels, or the breakfast buffet prepared by Michael? Only one of them has bacon, so that's probably it.
