OOC:

Nah. From your description you are catching the tail end of the wave, and you are "riding" it (using your innate swim speed) rather than having all that water crash on top of you.

Zale and the survivors tumble onto the deck. Soaked and bruised, but otherwise okay.

OOC:

Just waiting for Jack now.

Re: Chapter 2: Smoke on the Water

Jack stumbles his way into the chaos on the deck. Seeing the blackfin creature in range, he spits and runs over, blades flashing.

Stabbing with the rapier twice for Attack, Handaxe as a Bonus Action. Action Surge to rapier twice more. All on the Blackfin, unless he dies. If he goes down, subsequent attacks are on Mako.

Re: Chapter 2: Smoke on the Water

Round 3: Valrakas and Jack

Battle Music

With a bellow of rage, Valrakas lowers his horned head and charges the hammerhead. Sparks fly from the minotaur's copper-tipped horns as he gores the wereshark in the thigh. The captain then slashes at the creature's belly with his cutlass before ramming it hard in the chest, sending the fish-man flying over the rail and into the water.

Horns (Reckless): 5 piercing
Cutlass (Reckless): 5 slashing
Storm of Fury: 5 lightning damage
Hammering Horns: Success

With blinding speed, Jack goes to his captain's aid and unleashes a flurry of stabs and slashes at the sharkmen. The fighter nails the blackfin several times, but neither the half-elf's nor the minotaur's weapons seem to be able to wound these creatures as effectively as expected.

Rapier miss.

Re: Chapter 2: Smoke on the Water

I image Kitty is at the side of the boat wish to get out of the water. I doubt it can actually climb aboard that or it is looking for wreckage to climb aboard and get out of the water that way.

Re: Chapter 2: Smoke on the Water

OOC:

Kitty is on the port side of the boat. All the floating debris is on the starboard. Do you want Kitty to try swimming to the other side? The saber-tooth doesn't have a swim speed, so it will be half speed (20 ft) per round.

In any case, Kitty will take the Dodge action.

I would image the number one thought in her mind is to get out of the water as cats hate the water. Since it can't get on the boat, it would swim around it to get to the wreckage.

Round 4: Enemies
Battle Music

As the fight breaks out on the poop deck, the Kestrel suddenly lurches and begins moving backwards! Off the stern, chains attached to the rudder are pulled taught as a massive creature, part dragon, part turtle, begins towing the vessel to some unknown destination under the guidance of the two merrow lieutenants.

Regaining control of its limbs, the spellcaster surges forward to catch up with the ship. With a sweeping gesture followed by a clenched fist takes another stab at Valrakas with the floating trident, (5 piercing damage) drawing blood, and whipping the weresharks into a frenzy. Then, the merrow casts a baleful curse on the crew members at the rail. (Casting Bane. Phillip saves, Ian and Khiiral fail. 1d4 penalty on attacks & saves)

Barking commands while waving his golden cutlass in the air, the merrow captain rallies his troops. (Rally Maneuver: Scarface regains 3hp)

With renewed vigor, the scarred wereshark that Zake encountered earlier leaps over rail, and bites a chunk out of Valrakas (5 piercing) before throwing a net over the minotaur. (Valrakas is Restrained)

Folowing its buddy over the rail is the eyepatch-wearing wereshark. It falls upon the captain with its jaws (Mislabeled roll. 15 vs. AC hits: 6 piercing damage), and a vicious, two-handed stab with its crude trident. (6 piercing)

The Blackfin retaliates against Jack with a sweep of its tail and a quick thrust with its wickedly barbed harpoon. The tail swipe rocks the fighter (8 bludgeoning) but he manages to maintain his footing. It's enough to create an opening for the harpoon, which catches him in the side (7 piercing). The wereshark yanks on the line in an attempt to drag the half-elf overboard, but Jack proves too strong.

Sixgill faces off against Grog, sweeping with its tail and slashing with its rusty cutlass. (miss and hit. 2 slashing after DR)

The grapnel lines go taut as Hammerhead and Mako attempt to climb back up the stern. Meanwhile, four new grappling hooks clatter onto the deck, and are pulled secure against the port rail, promising the arrival of more boarders!

Glancing aft, Zale sees the captain in dire straits, entangled in a net, flanked by foes, including a floating trident...what, is that witch still around?! Spotting the spellcasting merrow to starboard, Zale casts the net, then leaps from the rail to rain down kicks and punches on the ensnared creature.

You have advantage on those attacks thanks to the target being Restrained. Both are already hits, but you could potentially also crit with the 2nd arrow, so feel free to add another attack roll to your post.
