Battle music!
Jhiros' hailstorm hammers the skelly crew!
(16 bludgeon, 12 cold) The giants are surprisingly nimble, able to dodge most of the hail, and somehow able to shrug off most of the damage!
(Evasion & Magic Resistance)
The Sea Witch fires another frantic cannonade as she runs before the wind.
(45 ft northwest. All cannons miss)
As the Witch's stern clears the Kestrel's bow, Leatha shouts a warning, her voice steady amidst her panicked crew,
"Watch it fur th' harpoons! Bewaur th' bone harpoons!"
True enough, as the undead vessel bears down on you
(100 feet west), two ballistae loaded with bone harpoons can be seen aimed right at you! But you've got more pressing problems right now, as the mangonels hurl the remnants of three skeleton squads, including the two giants, across the water to clatter onto the Kestrel's deck, just as your starboard cannons fire, raining destruction on Dead Jim's ship!
The bone squads tear into the crew, missing Jhiros but wounding Zale
(8 slashing) and Ian
(9 slashing).
The towering giant skeletons stride across the deck, armed with huge cutlasses. The one missing a lower jawbone swipes once at Nela
(12 slashing), and twice at Grog
(15+16 slashing). The other giant only has one arm, but cuts deep into Phillip
(1 hit: 17 slashing) and Alecor
(18 slashing). The giants don't seem to care about getting scorched standing in Alecor's wall of light.
(13 radiant)
From his position at the helm, deftly maneuvering the Kestrel to protect the Sea Witch
(30° turn, 35 ft north), Valrakas roars, bolstering the crew,
"Get them bloody undead filth off me fucken ship!" OOC:
• Alecor & Nela, roll Concentration checks.
• Kestrel crew ends Frightened condition.
