Llorenco barks orders, keeping the crew on task for the fight, while he observes the situation. Seeing the strange confrontation on the other ship, he decides to try to end it before the kraken sinks both ships. He lowers his pistol, holding it at arms length while standing sideways, timing the waves, ready to fire on the Eisen.

Satterson still wild eyed finally realizes his surrounds and dives for the other half of the artifact unsure how it works. He attempts to slam the two pieces together to bark out an order to tell Private Kraken to be 'Dismissed' in a military faction from the engagement, his thinking is this will suck a lot of the air in the Eisen's sails out since he'll have to start over after he gets the artifact pieces from Satterson.
OOC:
Unsure what that would be since I don't understand magic likely, but he does understand how to give orders.

Hmmm, given your approach and the situation I'd be happy with a Warfare+Resolve check (with the applicable bonus dice for FLair, etc, Sea Legs would still apply as well I'd say)

OOC:
Rolls.

Edit: [9,1] [7,3] [8,2] 3 rais and two left. Also I'd like to spend my last to hero points on the other players, villain gets 2 bonus die since I just reached the second dramatic wound if you haven't added it in.

So here's where we're at with Raises, etc, for this round (not buying any dice):

Enemy Captain 7 x Raises
Tentacle 5 x Raises
Llorenco - 4 x Raises
Bastien - 4 x Raises
Satterson - 3 x Rasies

Opportunities:
• Spend a Raise to grab onto one of the Kraken’s Tentacles. Why would someone do something so crazy? Grabbing the Tentacle doubles the next instance of Wounds that you deal to the Kraken or the Tentacle, but you take 1 Dramatic Wound afterward as the Kraken flings you away.
• Spend a Raise to load and fire chainshot at the Kraken’s Tentacles. Besides inflicting wounds upon the Kraken it entangles two of the Tentacles. The Kraken disentangles itself in 2 Actions, and cannot attack until it does so. If badly injured, it may submerge to reengage later.
• If you have the artefact - attempt to dominate the Kraken.

Consequences:
• Spend a Raise to not get knocked overboard as the Kraken tosses the ship around
• Spend a Raise to extinguish small fires threatening the safety of the Ship. These fires cause 3 hits to the Tempest, and crop back up from new sources at the beginning of each Round.

Satterson - Shaking his head to clear his thoughts the Eisen stares at you, still stuck wherever this is. As you begin to gather your thoughts to try and order the Kraken he lunges forwards with a snarl, his real hand sweeping to knock the now whole artifact from your grasp (1 x Raise to create an opportunity to get it away from you, 1 x raise to use it) and with his shadowy hand and cutlass he slashes accross your chest, a deep cold settling into your core at the blow (Spending 3 x Raises for regular Damage).

Bastien and Llorenco - You can both see Satterson and the Eisen still locked in whatever state they are with the artefact, occasional odd wounds and bruises seeming to appear on their bodies even though neither of them make so much as a move. You are also aware of the last tentacle as it comes crashing down onto the deck of the Southern Star. Awful cracks fill the air both from the snapping structure of the ship and the members of the crew who are tossed aside like childrens toys. Due to the damage it has suffered the Southern Star is making some seriously disconcerting noises, you are not sure how much more damage the ship can take but you are not keen on being aboard her for much longer.
OOC:
Satterson will need to spend a Raise to take an action to pick up the artefact before he can try to do anything with it.

All PC's are now up.....

Llorenco - 4 x Raises

Can I spend one (or more) raises to try to understand what the artifact is/how to use it? (Create an oppertunity for, or aid Satterson)?
Oct 16, 2018 7:15 pm
OOC:
I'm not sure what Llorenco should be doing. Any suggestions from Remnant, Azira?

OOC:
Meta: We're on a job to hunt and kill the Kraken I though so there's assisting our mother ship in that task. Also the Eisen is a creepy bugger and he's doing something with the Kraken to make it his bi-... err pet? Minion? Flunky? I'd make sure your ship is secured first since you're the Captain and then look into saving me and Doc's buts since I see us getting into the skinny pretty quick here.

Theres already an opportunity in play for using the artefact but it would mean grabbing at it which could be interesting....

OOC:
The hell with it. Hope you can fish us out of this, Lorenco ;)

Grabbing it, trying to figure out something clever to do with it once I flip into the upside down with the other two.
Eyeing the thing suspiciously, Bastien thinks for a heartbeat, two, then steels himself. As the ship bucks back and forth, his hand inches towards the artifact, his face a mix of interest and fear as he lays his hand on it.

Llorenco breathes out, (glances at the sailing, the rigging, wondering if he can swing over and save his crew), but then looks back, the Eisen in his sights, squeezes the trigger.
OOC:
Spending 3 raises for damage. Saving one, maybe to not get flung off the ship.

Bastien - you reach forwards and grab at the artefact, your vision darkening and your sense of what is going on around you fading as you hear the distant crack of gunfire. As your senses return you are standing on a strange rocky surface that is covered in barnacles. Before you can get more of an idea of where you are you can hear the sound of fighting. Glancing around a nearby ridge you can see Satterson and the Eisen trying to slice into one another with strange shadowy blades. Both figures seem to have taken significant injuries and as you watch you see the Eisen jerk and blood start flowing out of a new wound on his side, a wound that seemed to appear out of nowhere.

Llorenco - you level your pistol and fire, the round striking the Eisen in the side and making the figure slump to the deck but he still keeps a firm grip on the artefact.
OOC:
Bastien and Satterson to go!

Raises:
Bastien - 3 x Raises
Satterson - 3 x Rasies

I was waiting on Bastien to go, ICly I've no idea where everyone else is I figure. My actions would be different if I know about him being around or not.
