As dusk settles over the land the crew stow their oar/poles and settle down to eat a meal of stew prepared by the captain over a small boat stove. You are given a portion of the stew as well and soon after the captain and all but the half orc settle themselves down to rest. Garic and Sellene both find their usual sleeping spots and all becomes still save the lapping of the river water against the hull. Knowing the orc to be extremely untalkative from the days spent on the river already you find ways to keep yourself awake and alert.

The first hour passes with little of note save more starts coming out from behind the thin and high cloud cover. About half way though your second hour of watch you note several large, low, and sleek figures heading up stream pas you tens of feet away from you in the center of the river. Suddenly you hear a loud noise from the closer shoreline. Turning to look you see something heading your way through the sky!

The object begins to get larger then you realize it is going to strike to boat and there is not time to move the boat out of the way.
OOC:
You get 1 action to reponcd to this as you rolled so well in detecting the threat but the attack was already underway.

Seeing the large, unindentified object about to impact, Rovan jerks up and shouts:

"Cry and hue! We are under attack!!"

He braces himself for the impact, retreating as far from the object as he can on the ship.

OOC:
OK, what? No idea what that is LOL
The object strikes the front of the boat, barely missing the sleeping boatmen, and explodes splashing a large area with a foul smelling substance that glows slightly. (Red circle)
The rest of the boat startles to action and your eyes trace the trajectory back to its origin. There you see forms moving on the river bank pushing some boats into the river upstream of you.
A splash brings your attention back to the boat where the captain has two of the men throwing buckets of water onto the boat and cargo to wash off the substance while the one covered with it bails it out. The other men have locked their oars and stayed rowing.
OOC:
Give me another standard Test please, and let me know what your is doing at this time

Rovan points at one of the figures on the bank pushing boats into the water and hefts his first talisman in the shape of a frozen tear. He mutters an incantation and attempts to use his Snapfreeze on the enemy!

OOC:
OK they are beyond long range at the moment. Currently 300 feet plus. Long range is up to 150 feet.
You can try for being that up to 300 but it is at disadvantage to hit. You want to wait any try when they get in range or do shoeing else in the meantime?

Old fashioned speech for "sound the alarm!" though I see now I used it wrongly. Don't think people actually shouted that lol, but it describes a cry of alarm. Anyway, I try and sound overly archaic with him.

OOC:
Right. Would Rovan have time to do an enchanting spell and attempt to make a circular barrier right around where he stands now that people can't pass through? He will go for that. If it takes way too long, I will take the first option of attempting to shoot at someone with disadvantage.

The boats will take time to reach you. You might have time depending on how fast they are. Their boats are smaller and likely faster but you are no boatman. Make a Test with disadvantage if you want to estimate on how long.
To simpify this I will create a list of known enchantments that your character can use and modify
