LoS....  if this were a spell, I would say that you don't have LoS\LoE, but the description of the ability doesn't list any range, verbal\somatic gestures or anything.  It's as if the elements just obey your desires, so.....



a crudely shaped flaming dragon appears off the port side stern about 15ft above the Cog, which is about 35ft in the air

it seems to go unnoticed for a moment, until Unfeather chirps up, "<sqwak> pretty bird!  pretty bird! <sqwak>"

the table game goes quiet and you can hear murmurs of "well... blow me down"  "what in the blazes?"  and from the Tiefling whores "ooooh"  "how pretty!"  



since I just realized that we are dealing with some 3d combat, I added elevations in red.  

ground level = main deck of the Cog with the gaming table
fore\aft decks = +5ft
water = -20ft
fire bird = +15ft
Unfeathers = +20ft up in the rigging

technically, there is no "take 10" rule in 5e, just FYI.  it's fine this time, but next time please just make all rolls.  

you make me check my rules, but your actions are legal.   the athletics check is not considered an action, it's just part of the move with difficult terrain of climbing.
so you have move (w athletics) +  Hide  (action) = stealthy climb  

Stealth rules are kinda wonky if 5e to be honest.  usually the sneaking part of Stealth also makes you go at half speed, but 5e doesn't seem to go there.


Renda scales the side of the cog as quietly as a spider.  He now has a visual of the deck as shown on the map.  Renda is at elevation 0

perfect stat block.... not so perfect dice

I guess the dice make sense though.....  Sjon can't find a good hand hold on the side of the boat and flops about in the water making noise as he fails to climb  <splash, sploosh, thump, flounder, flounder, splash>


seems like you have 1 too many actions though.  I see a move, hide and ready in there.  It's up to you Joe, you can either hide or ready as your action with the move.  You already rolled the Stealth but I could also see an argument that since you failed the initial climb, there was no chance to Hide and thus keep the Ready.

Let me know

regardless, the noise seems to have alerted the baddies on deck, who now join initiative

at 19, the Stout Sgt with the fancy hat alerts to the noise off the starboard side.  He pushes the whore out of the way and takes the most direct path to L-6, drawing his sword as he goes.  He looks over the edge of the boat....  

If Sjon has a readied action, he can attack

@Matt, I don't think Renda would get an AoO Reaction unless he has reach, since the Stout Sgt's path would be 1 north, then diagonal NE, then E. If he does have reach, go ahead and make an AoO roll too

Stout Sgt still has an action, if he survives Sjon's spell and is able to act

I want sure if I was capable of readying the action or not. Leave it as it lies

Stout Sgt calls out in a commanding voice, one that is used to be being obeyed, "To arms, you lazy sea dogs!"

He takes his last 5ft to step back away from the edge and  uses Ready action.  He will attack anyone that climbs up and gets within range.  He doesn't seem to notice Renda hanging off the side.....

also at 19, you hear a deep gruff voice growl back in reply from the captain's quarters,  "Aarrrggghhh,  always trouble when I am balls deep in a pair of fresh whores!"  
His action is unseen, but easy to guess that he gets himself untangled from his companions and prepares to enter the fight next turn



Hawkes is up at 16
Sam on deck at 14

No reach to use fo AoO or interrupt-style bonus actions to make, proceed.

Stat block to come

Hawkes will climb and try to be quiet
Result of the throw of dice "1d20 +3" :

8 + 3 = 11 to climb

Result of the throw of dice "1d20 +5" :

12 + 5 = 17 stealth

Near the top, "Avast! D'ya think I come aplunderin on my lonesome. I ain't come for a fight," Hawkes apologies. "My birdie saw me in distress and led me leeward of ye. My ship was sacked by pirates; worst kind of em. Left me adrift for a day. Current brought me from yonder," he babbles with a gesture as he legs over the top.

Deception:
Result of the throw of dice "1d20 +6" :

13 + 6 = 19

DC is 15 to climb the side of the boat from the water, so Hawkes doesn't make it up or over. He can still try his deception from the water, of course.

Sam is up
Crispy on deck

Hawkes will still engage in conversation via deception. Is that an action, or can he try to climb again?

Sam casts Invisibility on himself and climbs over the side...

Athletics:

Roll(1d20)+3:
20,+3
Total:23

I assume that succeeds, lol...

Where did the Captain's voice come from? Sam wants to position himself right outside his door so that he can get him coming out?

navyik wrote:Hawkes will still engage in conversation via deception.  Is that an action, or can he try to climb again?

 

try to follow along guys, this is now the 3rd time this issue has been asked....

climbing = move + athletics check with DC 15 (medium difficulty) to scale the side of a boat from the water with no handholds and being all wet.  (again, if you found something to climb it would be easier DC 10)

HIDE is an ACTION, so if you try to climb steathly (which you rolled), that is your action for the turn and you can't try to climb again



talking is not an action on your turn, it would take your reaction if not on your turn and would be limited to a very short utterance


Deception of 19 stands

yes, DC 15 for the climb.  20 ft up and over the rails.  climbing is 1/2 speed as difficult terrain.  casting the spell is your action, so how much movement did you use climbing?  please declare your coordinate on the map using grid if you made it over the rail

the captain's voice came from the lower level of the back half of the boat, you would guess the stairs going down at O-7

and please post stat block with AC, HP, buffs\spells

climbing is a good challenge even for 8th level studs

A grappling hook would work wonders right now.

I debated just using Misty Step but I figured he couldn't see a place to teleport to at the moment... oh well, best laid plans and all that...

if only there was something to climb up just hanging off the boat.....

The cog is anchored about 300 ft out in the bay.  

Crispy sighs at his friend's obvious difficulties getting it up. He lets the spirit of his draconic ancestors fill his bloodstream as he roars "We will have our vengeance for Gundrin!!". Crispy casts Fly and rockets out of the water:

Fly
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Touch
Components: V S M (A wing feather from any bird)
Duration: Up to 10 minutes
You touch a willing creature. The target gains a flying speed of 60 feet for the duration. When the spell ends, the target falls if it is still aloft, unless it can stop the fall.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 3rd.

He uses 30' of his 60' to rise to J-5 (+10').

As the cog's deck comes into view during his ascent Crispy will expend 2 Sorcery Points to cast Scorching Ray as a bonus action:


Scorching Ray
Casting Time 1 action
Range 120 feet
Components V S
Duration Instantaneous
You create three fire rays. You can hurl them at one target or several. Make a ranged spell attack for each ray. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 fire damage.

He will target Stout Sgt. at L-7 with all three rays:

Crispy blasts the Stout Sgt twice with Scorching Rays!  He is hurt, but still up. His feather plume is scorched, which seems to upset him.
the 2nd was correctly a miss



Crispy gets +1 Inspiration Point!  
The IP is earned for both a spectacular visual and for being the only player to correctly take their turn

(Renda was close, but no "take 10" in 5e and less visually dramatic action)


INSPIRATION
Awarding inspiration is an effective way to encourage
roleplaying and risk-taking. As explained in the Player's
Handbook, having inspiration gives a character an
obvious benefit: being able to gain advantage on one
ability check, attack roll, or saving throw. Remember
that a character can have no more than one inspiration
at a time.

K-7 draws his pistol as he moves to G-6 taking aim at the newly Hexed Crispy from a better vantage of the fore deck.

if he passes or doesn't kill the pirate, Renda can perform his stated action, otherwise he remains an unseen lurker

No worries, you have my rolls if you need them.

Sam is going to let him keep moving... not the right time to drop invisibility yet. (and to be completely fair and honest, I hadn't stated that he had drawn a weapon yet as he was still climbing)

Renda has the taste of blood now. He lets out a hideous combination of howl and hiss, then darts up the stairs towards his next prey...

GM, here is my intent. I have 2 attack actions and 1 bonus action that grants an additional unarmed attack, and 45 ft of movement. I want to go up the stairs to engage pirate @ 8-G, and then assuming I have additional attack capability left, come back down the other stairs to engage pirate @ 10-I with remaining attacks. I assume this will require a square of difficult terrain to cross the corpse I intend to create in the first engagement.

All will be Bite/piercing attacks. atk and dmg rolls below:

Renda's plan all seems fine and legal. With 45ft he could indeed make the rounds. However, Renda's tour-de-claws is stopped at G-7 as he only succeeds in hitting the witty bard one time which is not enough to drop him.

OUCH!  nice hit, but Stout Sgt lives up to his name and stays on his feet.

The female witch is frustrated that her LoS is blocked by both the mast and the tiefling whore, she remains at the ready

Sam is now visible on the side of the boat which fulfills the witch's Readied action "cast Eldritch Blast if she sees any enemy at the side of the boat"  


Eldritch Blast 1 of 2 against Sam
Result of the throw of dice "1d20 +7" :

16 + 7 = 23

hit!  

damage 1d10+4 (agonizing blast for CHA damage to blast)
Result of the throw of dice "1d10 +4" :

6 + 4 = 10

Sam is also knocked 10ft back (Repelling Blast) which puts him back into the water  
there is no save or way to negate the effect

Sam is now at K-3 and -20ft from the deck level 0

Prerequisite: eldritch blast cantrip
When you hit a creature with eldritch blast, you can push
the creature up to 10 feet away from you in a straight line.


She gets a 2nd Eldritch Blast at 5th and since Sam is no longer a viable target.... she will fire at Renda who has conveniently moved back into her LoS

at Renda
Result of the throw of dice "1d20 +7" :

5 + 7 = 12

a sickly green ray whizzes in Renda's vacinity though not particularly close
