[OOC] Keratia: Story of the Surf, Tales of the Deep

It's cool. I don't mind a late post so long as you haven't forgotten about me.

Also, would I be correct in guessing the weapons on that table are a shortsword, two daggers, a longsword, and a handaxe?

[Lucius Cypher]

Ye.

[rush99999]

Is the commotion deeper in the ship audible enough to allow for guesses as to what might be happening down there?

[Lucius Cypher]

From just noise alone it sounds like a lot of smashing, but you can roll perception to try and hear anything more specific.

[rush99999]

Would a 19 suffice?

[Lucius Cypher]

You can hear water being leaked into the ship. The sea goblins are trying to sink it from the inside out.

You'd know from your experiences that this isn't nearly as unusual as you might expect. Obviously a lot of ships that make long sea voyages, much like this elven merchant vessel, have extremely armored exteriors precisely so creatures like sea goblins can't just punch holes into it from underneath the ship and sink the whole craft.

[rush99999]

Does it sound like a lot of water is coming through?

[Lucius Cypher]

Not really, that's why you needed a perception check. It does sound like they're making progress though.

[Lucius Cypher]

Kew, roll me a stealth check please.

[rush99999]

If a roll of 13 doesn't cut it, I'm gonna activate Saving Face and bump that roll up to an 18.

[Lucius Cypher]

Let's just say that the sergeants are a cut of a better cloth, so you will certainly wanna use that trait. I'll do a write up as soon as I finish up the map.

[rush99999]

That channel divinity went a lot better than I thought it would. Quick question though, the floorboards in square B24 were crooked in your previous post, but now they're straight. Was the crookedness in that last post just a glitch on the map?

[Lucius Cypher]

Yup.

[rush99999]

Out of curiosity, did we come across any elf corpses on our way down that you forgot to mention by any chance?

[Lucius Cypher]

You can passively tell there were some struggles via errant bloodstains and damage to the interior walls, but nah, you haven’t come across any other elves or their corpses. How curious~

[rush99999]

Curious indeed.

[rush99999]

Since the fight is pretty much over, how much experience has Talogan earned?

[Lucius Cypher]

I handle level ups via milestones. Generally speaking if I have you go up against a big monster or big group of monsters, you’re nearly close to leveling up.

[Lucius Cypher]

Perception checks please, and tell me your passive if you roll lower than it.

[rush99999]

I rolled a 16.
