Alzar dashes up the rope onto the deck and suddenly, sailors begin to pour out of the hull and onto the deck.
Alzar casts Sleep and 7 fall asleep. An arrow flies down from an archer in the crow’s nest and Alzar orders her to be Mist Balled. She takes 5 damage and is blinded for 2 rounds. Several more powerful men emerge and start swinging swords, and suddenly, Alzar takes 15 damage from magic darts that pour into his back from someone coming out of the other deck. A mage likely. Aleigha and Estaish are on board. Alzar moves to fight the mage, and Aleigha and Estaish are sent to the four people at the end of the deck looking for a fight.
36/51
Aleigha and Estaish use this round to close. The mage casts Web on the area around Alzar, but he slides right through it (Ring of Free Action). Alzar reciprocates with a Charm Person spell, but it does not even affect the mage. Megala claws the blind archer but misses.
The next round, Estaish takes 5 and then adds 4 more from two hits. The female mage sees Alzar still coming, smiles, and casts lightning bolt – Alzar takes 28 damage with a save for half an the save…it failed. Alzar arrives and casts Vampiric Touch. She takes 14. Aleigha kills the last chump looking one for the group. Alzar orders Dryshik back down here to Mist Ball the mage next turn. Megala swings and claws the blinded check for 3 damage and kills her.

Alzar wins init and hopes, casting Ray of Ondovir on the mage. She fails her save. She tries to cast Lightning Bolt again this turn, but unforutantely, she actually has another memorized and casts it again. It only half hits Alzar, since she has to cst it at the same angle as before, and Alzar takes 14 after another failed save. Dryshik Mist Balls her, but she makes her save. Megala flies down. Both Estaish and Aleigha miss. One of the captains drops his swor,d and another skewers Aleigha for a crit for 13 damage.

Alzar wins init and is dying, and without a Vampiric Touch lifeline, he needs to save himself, so he jumps overboard. Megala flies down and misses the mage. Estaish nails a swordsman for 10 damage. He takes 7 and Aleigha takes 6. The mage leans over, cannot find Alzar, and instead casts a spell to protect her (Stoneskin).

16/32
Alzar sees her turn away from the water through Dryshik, and emerges. He uses the Belt of Flying, and while he is flying back up, grabs his Wand. He aims a cone of paralyzation at the fighters, and two fails their save. Aleigha also fails her save. Estaish stabs out and hits the non-frozen one for 4 damage. Dryshik breathes his final Mist Ball at the mage and she fails her save, and a skin is destroyed. She takes no damage, but she is still blinded for 3 rounds. Megala swings at her and misses badly.
The man still swinging nails Estaish for 6 damage.
10/32
Alzar swings a dagger at the mage and hits her, peeling off a second skin (5 skins left). Megala hits for another. (4 left) and Dryshik is ordered to gate in more mephitis. He fails. Estaish nails the one left for 9 damage, and that guy hits back for 6. Estaish yells to Alzar for help and retreats (no healing pot).
4/32
Alzar tosses Estaish a pot of invisibility and flies in front of Estaish while he drinks it and disappears. He casts Hypnotism and the man fails his save. He is asked to drop his weapon and sit down, and does so. Megala and Dryshik both try to claw the blind mage, and neither can hit. She will be unblended next turn. For now, she stabs out and tries to hit one of the flying creatures, but misses.
She comes too, sees that everyone is asleep or dead, Alzar and the impish creatures still around, and casts Polymorph Other, turns into a griffon, and flies away. Alzar lets her go as he focuses on the boat. They kill the sleepers and paralyzed ones, and ask the captain to hold out his hands while he is tied up.
