Elyas succeeds in blinding several, but possibly only temporarily. Rolth Niheow immediately tears into one with several of his attacks hitting and several missing. Kiwina finishes off the Merrow that Rolth began attacking Falco Ambersier succeeds in blinding one of them Mak finishes off the injured merrow with three well placed arrows.
As the deck of the ship erupts into spells and flurries of attacks the Merrow begun pushing aboard, one immediately falls under Mak's arrows, another falls under an attack by Rolth and Kiwina, leaving ten merrow on the decks.
There are four attacking Rolth, four attacking Kiwina and two attacking Tsaz,
Rolth takes 37 damage and is Grappled by one of the Merrow.
Kiwina takes 22 damage and is also grappled
Tsak takes 24 damage and is also grappled by one of them.

One of Rolth's mirror images winks out when the first merrow strikes him, causing a miss, but he is grappled by the other. He seems unconcerned, as his hind claws pop out for a series of rakes as he attacks back. He'll start with the one grappling with him, then turn to injured ones in reach if the first goes down. He continued his raging, inspiring singing. (Rage, Inspire Courage +1)

The merrow seem to have the god of luck on their side, unerringly avoiding his last remaining mirror image with all their attacks. (And wow, they got maximum damage on all four attacks, ouch!) He continues trying to shred the injured one (M3), landing blows to the beat of his raging song. He knows that he does not have long to live at this rate, but with nowhere to withdraw to, is determined to go down swinging.

Mak was worried so he pulled out all the stops and fired four arrows. The first one went into a crowd of enemies and he wasn’t certain it hit, the second one definately missed as it glanced off the rail and went into the water. The third and fourth hit solidly on the one grappeling Kiwina.

Kiwina realizes he isn't going to survive more of this pounding. Nor could he escape attack by the merrows if he managed to escape -- the Rose is only so big, and he can't out-swim them.
"Grandfather, you might as well try something, though I don't know what you'll manage against these things." he calls out. Invoking a spell from the spirits next round.

Elyas sees his friends in trouble, but also see the enemies line up in a perfect row. using the speed from his haste spell he sprint over to the flank of the battle line (AG 21)
he holds his special dagger high, using it to release another burst of lightning, which streaks along the deck, bouncing from Merrow to Merrow in an impressive display of electric power [using arcane bond to recast lightning bolt.] DC 19 reflex for half damage for each merrow in the AG column full damage = 26

Falco moves closer to Rolth and fires two arrows into the back of on of his attackers. {At M3 Hit: 27|28 Damage: 12|11} He hopes he did enough as he moved forward intending to heal at the next chance.

Mak in the crow's nest saw his friends going down under the onslaught of aquatic beasts as they were tangled up in a miasma of limbs. "Come about!" Mak ordered the crew. If they followed his order the ship would come about into the wind and stop. That way if any of these creatures managed to take anyone overboard they'd at least be able to follow them without doubling back.

Rolth Niheow lets loose a flurry of attacks, unfortunately only a couple of them land... Kiwina swings to let loose, and with Mak manages to slay one of the Merrow giving him trouble, continually injuring some near him Falco Ambersier hits with two arrows. Mak lets out a hail of arrows, striking down one of the Merrow, and injuring another.
As more Merrow fall, one of them lets out a shriek and starts clambering back over the side of the ship. Those hanging onto the Petals let go and also start diving over the side, the blinded Merrow run at the side of the ship towards the sounds of splashing water and strike the railing, and fall over into the ocean, you can see the dark shadows that make up the merrow in the water moving away from the boat, an eerie shrieking coming from the leader to guide the others away.
Some of you are heavily injured, others are in good condition, but a quick search of the Merrow's bodies turns up a few interesting items. Each of the six dead merrow has a ring on them set with a large pearl. In the pouches they carry are also assorted minor pearls and jade and fine coral, totalling 200gp a piece (1200 all told).
It seems for now, the danger has passed!

Rolth gives a slightly mad laugh as he yells, "I love the smell of ozone in the morning, it smells like victory!" and then walks over to give Elyas a giant liontaur hug. Then the gleam of battle lust leaves his eyes and he makes sure the injured Petals are nearby before trying to call the power of Domi for the first time. "Domi, hear me, and heal these who have served your cause, defending the good from the darkness and evil." The tattoos on his wrist glow and the injured Petals may feel a wash of healing energy. "Hey, not bad for a first timer, although dear Falco is still much better at this!"

A slight breeze swirls around Kiwina and the dead merrow next to him, perhaps speaking a language known to the air. As Rolth hugs Elyas, a dolphin leaps into the water and swims after the retreating merrow. Not that it will mean anything now, but Kiwina had invoked the spirits. (Summon Nature's Ally I)
"Yes, thanks Elyas. And thanks Mak for some well-placed shots." Kiwina still feels pummelled, despite Rolth's healing. He casts cure light wounds on himself.
"At least they didn't seem to be fanatical cultists," he laughs to himself.

Mak looked at his quiver and saw that only six arrows remained, so he reached into his pack to gather up some more to refill it. As he did so he called back down to Kiwina. "Being safe up here in the crows nest helped a bit though I'd not have traded places with you old bean. We do seem to have sorted that lot."
OOC: Not sure if the command to come about was followed....if so.
"We should get back underway captain. Those watery scabs might return with friends." Mak said as he left the thought unsaid that perhaps these were more agents of the Deep come to enact their revenge upon the petals. As he finished replenishing his quiver Mak's eyes went to their surroundings to watch for enemies.

Elyas flinches away slightly as the big liontaur comes over to him, battle still in his eyes. but he relents to the big hug, starting to get used to Rolth's energy and how it swings from battle lust to celebration on a copper piece.
he helps the others clear out the bodies, taking the jewelry from them. Elyas casts detect magic on them to see if any of the rings are magical, or if any other items that may have been overlooked are magical in nature
DM Dan - The Merrow Battlespace Tuesday March 23rd, 2021 7:55:21 PM Tsak Rezar Elyas looks for magical loot. Rolth Niheow attempts to heal the party Kiwina heals himself further Falco Ambersier Mak suggest moving on.
A quick glance over the rings with a magical eye reveals that they are indeed magical, they have a faint aura around them, which looks the same in each case, so if you manage to identify one, you'll know what they all do.
The crew helps you deal with the bodies of the Merrow that are left behind, and try to clean up the deck now that it's slick with blood, which Yuria helps with. Despite being close to as highborn as Liontaur's get, she seems not to be afraid to get her hands dirty. Caliphon spends time repairing the side of the boat where there are some slight gouges, and helping Mak with his arrows, reflecting them/crafting more with the minimal materials he has on hand.
The rest of the day passes by without incident, and it is nice to be in the sun and with the cool waters around you, but you are making good time towards your destination.

Rolth, quite pleased with his previous results, channels the power of Domi twice more, sending healing to him comrades nearby.
(Channel Energy = 10hp of healing)
He also will attempt to assist Elyas in his examination of the magic rings.

After Rolth's further healing, Kiwina looks at the damage to the Rose to see what he thinks of repairing it (craft: ships = 14 for an initial assessment only). If only they could channel energy to the ship as well.
Mak has the right of it, though. Best to get moving once the dead merrow are off the ship, before their attackers could find reinforcements. They can worry about further cleaning along the way.

Tsak accepts the healing with a fist bump for Rolth, making sure the gleam of battle has died from his friends eye first. He feels pretty beaten up, and a bit squished after being hugged by the wee beastie. After making sure that everyone is ok and the ship is sea-worthy he heads below deck for a nap with his cat.

The damage to the ship is mostly cosmetic, a few claw marks where the merrow dragged themselves up the sides, but nothing that needs immediate attention, thankfully.
The next few days pass without incident, the sun is shining, the ship is making good time, and Yuria and Caliphon seem to be relaxing, almost as if they actually believe they're free...

Elyas finishes examining the rings "these are all the same, they're your basic ring of protection +1" if anyone needs one Elyas hands them out, otherwise he adds them to the store of trade goods in the hold.
during the day Elyas helps manage the crew and works the rigging as he has always done, even before they had a full crew. profession sailor = 26
he does not take a night watch, but he is up early each morning and takes the first watch as dawn approaches. perception = 19
Kiwina (Steve M) 57/83 HP | AC:19 (or 20 using 2 weapons) | HeP: 5 | Status: None d20+19=29 ; Thursday March 25th, 2021 9:02:15 PM
Kiwina suggests they maintain the watch rotation Rolth had established earlier: Tsak and Falco for evening/nighttime, Kiwina and Rolth for nighttime/morning, and Elyas and Mak for the daylight hours. Plus whatever help can be spared by the crew.
Kiwina stays reasonably alert during his stint (perception = 29).
Rolth Niheow (BatMark) (62/62 HP |AC: 19; Touch: 13; CMD: 24) | d20+14=31 ; Thursday March 25th, 2021 9:35:57 PM
Rolth agrees with the Captain's agreement with his watch schedule. He keeps a sharp eye out during his duty period, but offers songs and stories to help pass the time. Rolth does not need a protection ring because he already has one.
Perception = 31
(OOC: We all should be fully healed with several days of travel time under our belts.)
Mak(JamesM)(60/60)HP|AC:23/16T/18FF|CMD 27|+1 CLB:Arrows(20)|11/6/-/11(RS)/-|(Full,WFs,WS,WT,PBS,DA,RS)**|1d8 + 14(x3) d20+9=25 ; d20+5=8 ; Friday March 26th, 2021 8:48:04 AM
Mak gratefully accepted the ring from Elyas and slipped it on his finger. He'd be needing this if conditions worsened with the Deep as he suspected his next encounter would be closer than he'd like.
The watch schedule suited him fine and he commanded the crows nest during the day for as long as he could only switching out with someone when he needed a break. In the nest Mak kept an eye to the horizon in all directions.
OOC: Perception +9, Roll 25; PS: Sailor +5, Roll 8.
Falco Ambersier (Ryan M) Status: +2 AC | 51/51 HP | | AC 19(21) (T15/F15) | Channel (3d6) 3/5 | Hero Point 4/6 | | +1 L 3d8+8=24 ; d20+11=18 ; d20+11=31 ; Friday March 26th, 2021 9:58:17 AM
As the aftermath of the battle takes place Falco moves to Kiwana and heals him before looking to see who else is injured. {Healing Kiwana: 24}
Once under way he will make sure everyone is hale hand hardy for the adventures ahead.
As they travel Falco spends a lot of time in the rigging keeping watch periodically during the day, more to keep himself busy. {Perception: 18} He is sure to take an actual full shift at night know that his eyesight is better then many. {Perception: 31}

DM Dan - The Merrow Battlespace Saturday March 27th, 2021 6:13:28 PM Tsak Rezar remains doing his watches Elyas finishes examining the rings, and gives them out. Rolth Niheow keeps a good watch Kiwina keeps a good watch, having suggested that the Petals maintain the watch schedule they've been doing. Falco Ambersier keeps an eye out during the day, but focusses properly during his nightshift. Mak stays in the crows nest during his watch.
On day 6 of your journey, when there is a cool breeze and warm sun, and calm waters, something appears on the horizon. Mak spots it first, being much higher up, and as soon as it's pointed out, Elyas spots it, though he too would have spotted it if Mak wasn't in the crows nest.
Mak and Elyas - Highlight to display spoiler: {It appears to be a sail, a single sail attached to some sort of floating craft, you can't make out much, but the sail is large enough to see, it's a large square sail, and whatever it is is coming directly towards you.}
The rest of you are doing various odds and ends and tasks around the ship as whatever it is becomes apparent, mostly below decks or catching up on a good night sleep if needed.
Tsak Rezar (Damien) AC15 (T13/F12) 70/70 HP| Falchion +4 2D4+3|Crossbow +1 1D8+1|Status: Saturday March 27th, 2021 8:12:21 PM
Tsak mostly stays in the Crows Nest during his shifts on watch at night.
He enjoys spending quiet, companionable silences with Falco who really seems to be embracing his new journey and developing powers.
Day times Tsak catches up on sleep, brushes Esmerelda and helps out mending, cleaning or cooking on the Rose as he sees fit.
Mak(JamesM)(60/60)HP|AC:23/16T/18FF|CMD 27|+1 CLB:Arrows(20)|11/6/-/11(RS)/-|(Full,WFs,WS,WT,PBS,DA,RS)**|1d8 + 14(x3) Saturday March 27th, 2021 9:24:02 PM Ship Ahoy! Mak called out as he pointed at the sail on the horizon.
Rolth Niheow (BatMark) (62/62 HP |AC: 19; Touch: 13; CMD: 24) | Sunday March 28th, 2021 8:42:48 AM
Rolth will stand ready in the middle of the deck, waiting until the mysterious vessel is just outside bowshot to cast Eagle's Splendor and Expeditious Retreat on himself.

Once the other sail is clear and seen to be headed their way, Kiwina begins to talk to the spirits. When it is five to ten minutes out, he asks what will happen if the Petals parley with the crew of the other vessel, and remembers what the spirits said in his dreams the night before. (Augury effect.)

Esmerelda hears the commotion on deck and her moving around wakes up Tsak.
He grabs his gear and they make their way above deck to see what's going on.

Hearing the call Falco quickly gears up and heads to the deck. As his own person standard procedure he again offers Water Breathing to any who would like it, getting knocked into the water in armor could be bad for anyone's health.

Rolth will happily accept the Waterbreathing from Falco!

Mak too will accept the waterbreathing
Elyas (Ben A.) (59/59 HP | AC: 18; Touch:13; Flat: 15; CMD:15) | mwk Light Crossbow +7( 1D8, 19-20) | Status: mage armor Monday March 29th, 2021 3:46:30 PM
when Mak calls out the sighting of the other vessel, Elyas also catches a glimpse of it.
"too far out to tell what it is, captain! looks like a single sail, and headed towards us
DM Dan - The Open Sea d100=57 ; Monday March 29th, 2021 6:13:06 PM Tsak Rezar also keeps watch from the crows nest. Elyas looks out at the vessel Rolth Niheow prepares for the possibility of another attack Kiwina speaks to the spirits Falco Ambersier casts Waterbreathing for any who want it. Mak calls out the vessel.
Kiwina - Highlight to display spoiler: {You get a distinct sense of nothing.}
As you look for the vessel, it approaches, and you can see the sail waving back and forth, and it becomes apparent there are two figures on it, one jumping up and down trying to get your attention and moving all over the vessel, which appears to be nothing more than a raft. It's quite far out, and may take about an hour for you to get close enough to it to interact, how do you want to react?
Rolth Niheow (BatMark) (62/62 HP |AC: 19; Touch: 13; CMD: 24) | Monday March 29th, 2021 8:14:24 PM "Well, Captain, they are either sailors in need of rescuing, or someone trying to lure us in. Either way, I don't see how we can pass them by. Shall I ready a grappling hook so that we can snag their raft when we approach? We can hail them for parley, and see what is what."
Assuming that we approach the raft, Rolth will stick to his original plan and cast Eagles Splendor and Expeditious Retreat when we get close.

One of the figures is jumping and moving about -- meaning the other is still, possibly injured? "Mak, be ready to cover them when the time comes."
Kiwina accepts the water breathing effect.

Tsak grabs some medical supplies, putting them in his backpack, and prepares to board the raft and render assistance if people are injured. He is still armed with his sword. He leaves his bow and bolts secured on the deck of the Rose.
Mak(JamesM)(60/60)HP|AC:23/16T/18FF|CMD 27|+1 CLB:Arrows(20)|11/6/-/11(RS)/-|(Full,WFs,WS,WT,PBS,DA,RS)**|1d8 + 14(x3) d20+11=20 ; d8+14=18 ; Tuesday March 30th, 2021 9:36:56 AM
Mak readied his bow from the crows nest when they came into range. He'd be ready for any tricks.

{ooc: Had no idea it was so far away, can the waterbreathing be cast at the appropriate time to be useful.}
Falco nods. "Clearly we have to investigate and help."
Falco will do what he can to help speed the trip to the boat. {Prof Sailor: 22}

Elyas hangs back, waiting to see what happens. if it does take an hour to get into range to do anything he can't cast helpful spells now, but he starts to think through possible options for when they do come closer.
"I agree with Falco, we definitely want to investigate, and help if these really are people in distress. they may have survived some danger from a bigger vessel, otherwise how would they have gotten this far out?
profession sailor = 22. Elyas will try to determine how far from land they are currently, and what the range of a raft like this might be to get a rough idea of where they could have come from.
