Two hostile spells, presumably aimed at her illusory footsteps, and she didn't feel either one!

Ah here's a ladder to the lower level, which is hopefully a single open hold. Down she goes! Oops that ladder trumps a lot as she clambers down.

She manages to get to Tos in time to dodge whatever Felicia just did but she would have liked more warning!

"Remember, our job is to protect the cargo. Is it safe to move there now, Felicia?"

A Fireball hits the deck above them. The amount of fire on their level is unchanged but it sounds bad up there.

A bottle smashes on the deck. Another falls through the hatch and splatters acid on the floor.

The two of them are far enough away that the acid doesn't hit them, although she would rather not splash around the area.

"Yes, safe now. I don't think we got them. Her, I think. Do you need more healing? I'm not sure how we can protect the cargo now. I'm racking my brain for ways to detect the invisible person. And we don't have...flour or anything."

"I'm resistant to both fire and acid. I'll go upstairs and see what's up."

He goes and does that. What does the situation abovedeck look like?

"Healing would be nice, but it's not urgent.

We need to find the recipient of the cargo to take custody, confirm that the recipient is dead, or... confirm that the attackers are way stronger than we agreed to fight?"

"I need healing; I used my stored Cure Light Wounds but I'm still in bad shape."

The second round of Alieta's Detect Thoughts says that the invisible woman has intelligence of 10. It's not yet attuned enough to detect her thoughts that aaaaah it's full of skeletons down below! The undead kind! Well possibly someone's macabre and impractical artwork, since they're not moving, but come on, they're sitting in rows grasping the ship's oars.

The deck is burning. On the shore, visible in the light of the fire, are four human-sized figures, including the person in the cloak who was just on the ship. Two of them have harnesses covered in bottles and bags and bundles. One drinks from a bottle and spits at Elias.

The fourth person shoots a longbow at Elias.

Inside the boat, a human with metallic skin dashes around a corner and flops down to touch the customers. Animate Dead. The customers stagger up, chunks of burnt flesh slipping off their bones.

"Defend me and the ship!"

Formerly-Braids and Formerly-Blond creep towards the ladder.

Healing Alieta using her own spell would be better than using the wand. They've tested it on prisoners before. Wands don't take into account the strength of the user.

Cure Light Wounds.

Her hand becomes wreathed with golden light, which she presses on Alieta's shoulder. The glow from her hand seems to flow into her, and now it's Alieta's burns that glow before healing, closing over with regular skin.

"Do you need another one, or is that fine for now?" She'll probably use the wand if she needs another one.

He manages to dodge both the spittle and the arrow. It's difficult with how heavy his armor is, but his antipaladin boons are really coming through.

Right. Two alchemists, an archer, and the wizard. Let's take care of the wizard first. He lets out a roar and Charges, holding his greatsword like a lance, tip straight forward.

Power Attack.

Interesting. The wizard doesn't seem to have Mage Armor on. You get a feel for that once you've fought enough combat arcane casters. Better for him. The sword pierces the wizard's robes cleanly.

Cleric healing is so much prettier than Infernal Healing. She wonders if using her dagger was pretty; she wasn't looking. "Mmmmm." She can feel her body again! "Another would just about bring me to perfect shape." Which Alieta wants her to do, but that's Tos's decision, or Felicia's, if she has something better in mind to do this round...

Formerly-Blond climbs up the ladder without any apparent issue with acid.

The wizard was expecting this fight to be more one-sided! "Block the hatch - !" Elias hit hard, but not hard enough to kill immediately. The wizard steps back, to be no longer enveloping Elias's blade, and hurls two bulbs of rock at him with Stone Discus.

Alieta's Detect Thoughts now reports that the invisible woman is:

* Startled by the undead skeletons around her clattering out of their seats.

* Relieved that the skeletons aren't attacking her, just running by her and up to the level where the chest is.

* Desperate to get to the chest before it's burnt any more, in order to rescue the person inside, who she - respects? Some kind of Good feeling.

"She's below us! And a bunch of skele-"

"The undead are all mine!" shouts the person by the chest, behind Formerly-Belt and Formerly-Ring. "Cleric! I have desecrated this area - use your channeling!"

The person with the bow shoots Elias again.

Another swig and spit.

The fourth person leaps onto the boat and throws a bottle down the hatch, right into Formerly-Blond's face, which burns, melting his head and shoulders into sludge.

He successfully dodges both the spittle and the arrow. He's having a very good day today.

Something must have gone wrong with the wizard's casting, because the discuses go veering off to the side. 

Channeling energy would hit all the enemies, but that's a Will save. Touch of Corruption is irresistible, and he can add a Cruelty with a Fortitude save. It would be difficult for the wizard would be able to resist it. He can make the wizard Fatigued, and hence less able to dodge his attacks, despite it dealing much less damage.

His hand becomes wreathed in a sickly dark sea-green glow, and he lunges. The negative energy flows through his hand and into the wizard's torso.

Right. The undead person has their face melting off. She Channels Negative Energy again, this time tuning it to heal only undead and not affect the living. Formerly-Blond's head and shoulders reform into something more akin to their former shape.

"The invisible woman's below, got it. Can you pinpoint her location? If you can spot her for me, I can Channel Negative Energy in her vicinity, even if you can't tell her exact location."

She seems like a caster, with how she cast Invisibility and teleported in here. She might use Touch of Idiocy.

The wizard staggers back, flings a handful of mud at Elias's face, misses again.

The person who was spitting at him splashes a beaker of glittery blue liquid right into his chest, where it spreads over his armor and freezes.

The bowman fires again and misses, then turns and fires at Formerly-Blond, and misses him too.

Another fire attack on Formerly-Blond melts his upper half again.

Alieta gestures vaguely downward.

Is that person's cloak covered in maggots?
