Skiff Combat: Round One: Coreen
Damn the Boromars! Damn the Sovereign Hosts! I should have known this would happen. Devlin and the others should have listened to me when I told them the Boromars were trouble. But no one would listen to me. Now we're being boarded by filthy and disgusting gnolls. I haven't seen such brutes ever since the war ended.
It's a good thing I'm below the deck, making sure the supplies are secured, when the gnolls made their grand entrance. Let them harass the boys. I just hope they don't break anything in the fight.
I took a peek from one of the windows and saw the a couple of grappling hooks tied to the ship. Apparently these raiders had the Ravenstorm tied to the docking tower.
So what do I do? Hide under the stairs and wait till Devlin and the others beat the gnolls to a pulp? Or help free the ship?
Suddenly the entire ship shook violently and began to tilt to the left. I grabbed the base of the stairs and struggled to maintain my balance. I heard the sounds of wood twisting and snapping.
Those raiders are destroying the ship!
I must find a way to free the Ravenstorm from those grappling hooks! Good thing I carry a spare dagger on my boots. All I need to do is sneak out into the main deck and cut the ropes.
That's the wall of the cargo hold splits open and a gnoll and a human pirate jumps into the hold followed by a swarm of sand bats - probably Rourke's doing. They see me and give me a toothy canine grin as they raise their bows towards me. While all I have is my spare dagger.
Ooh! I’m getting Devlin for this!

Is this the same gnoll and human that is after devlin?
OOC: Nope. This is gnoll and the human which were on the skiff. They finally make it into the breach in the wall of the ship. Sorry for the confusion.
