Session 41 - An Attempt to Save Jasper
General Summary
Arming Allies:
Carys has a sword and shield, Kel is equipped as a ranger, and Falke wields a scimitar and a rare blunderbuss firearm.
Exploration:
The party discovers two staircases, one likely leading to a storeroom and another unknown path, along with a door leading outside.
They confirm from the captain's log that Jasper is still in the area.
Bridge and Battery:
Mori inquires about the bridge, and Falke reveals it leads to the artillery battery.
B plans to shrink and free a captive gnome using lockpicks if needed. Mori makes B invisible for the task. Rescue Mission:
B, invisible, approaches the gnome, Ali, who is locked in a large cage.
During this, the turtle transforms back into a pirate, causing commotion. Carys intimidates the pirate back into the cell. B communicates with Ali, who consents to the rescue plan and agrees to wait for the signal.
Captain's Quarters:
The group decides to kill the captain in his quarters. As they cross the bridge, Falke suggests she has a distraction plan.
They encounter the captain with a hook hand, a scar down one eye, and a black stone set in the eye. He shouts "INTRUDERS."
Battle Ensues:
Kel prepares for anyone coming up the stairs. Gos gets shot as Mori uses Form of Dread.
Zarri casts Bane on the captain and a pistoleer and inspires Marble.
The arikocra defecates on Marble, who then shoots it. Kel takes out a pirate.
Falke rallies the Crimson Fangs to their side.
Cannon Fire and Pirate Attack:
A cannonball kills the arikocra. Gos is surrounded by pirates. Mori uses sickening radiance, affecting Gos too.
Zarri paralyzes a group in the radiance. Ali fires a cannonball, creating chaos.
The captain attacks Gos, who teleports out of the light. Marble kills a pistoleer.
B inquires about the Silver Dragon, learning it's in the boat hold with the Butcher.
The Butcher Appears:
The Butcher, a large goliath with a flail, emerges. Carys knocks him down with a shield bash.
The Butcher gets up, attacks Carys, and sends her flying. Zarri heals Gos.
Carys is grappled by the Butcher who proceeds to chop her hand off. Zarri's Dissonant Whispers fails against the goliath's resistance.
Climax of the Battle:
Gos attacks the captain but misses. Kel shoots the Butcher in retaliation for Carys' injury.
Carys, despite her injury, continues to assault the Butcher. The Butcher retaliates against Falke, who drops her weapon.
