Well... that was something you didn't see every day!<strong>"Ware below, the storm is coming for us!"</strong>The spirit's strike against the deck had little effect up in hte crow's nest, but did jostle Sheeldric into the air, the great bird lifting into the rain and wind with an annoyed cry. Taluya gritted her teeth and nocked an arrow. The bow gave a soft creak of complaint as she drew back, the layers of yew, horn, and hickory all wrapped in sinew bending impossibly taut against the halfling's draw. There was an audible<em>Thwang!</em>as the arrow released. Even as it flew, Taluya called out,<strong>"Sheeldric! Drive it off!"</strong>The bird felt, as much as heard the command, and launched forward into the gale to do just that.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Actions and rolls</div><div class="spoiler_body">Taluya Initiative 14 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=73520)<br/>Sheeldric Initiative 25 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=73521)<br/><br/>Sheeldric: Delays action until immediately after Taluya.<br/>Taluya: Enters <em>Focused Rage</em> as a free action. makes a single ranged attack<br/>13 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=73523) (arrow misses, and probably kills some poor unfortunate soul seven miles away)<br/>Sheeldric flies in (fly check vs. DC of thestorm: 21 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=73525)) and bites! <br/>11 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=73526)<br/><br/><br/>Well.
