Iggy will levitate to be close to one candle while reaching out with his mechanical arm that telescopes out with polished, oiled metal ready to pinch a second candle out. Coordinating breath and hand douses to at once and he quickly reaches out to snuff others as needed.

There are 5 candles to snuff out

Elizabeth, your device reveals no impending attack but you can easily detect prone 8 human skeletons scattered throughout the ship. The ship is purely windpowered.
if anybody has any skills to tell you about ships feel free to roll it now..

Iggy will douse them all, moving as needed. His method of moving while levitated involves grabbing things with an extended arm and 'reeling' his floating form around.

As you pinch the last candle the is a noiseless explosion and a flash of light disappears through the wall of the warehouse. With your keen goblin nose you easily pick up the smell of gunpowder, damp and blood.

"Well, that was exciting." the goblin trills.

"There is evidence of fighting on the boat. We should go in." Iggy suggests.

Hob Henderson
HP: 1; LP: 1; Condition: Normal

Hob tensed as the last candle was snuffed out- but then nothing happened. At the goblin's suggestion, he moved forward towards the ship. Then he puled a pair of heavy work gloves out of his satchel and drew them on. "Let's be about this, then" he muttered, stepping towards the entry...

>OOC: If there is an obvious door or hatchway accessible from the ground level, he will move to open it. If not, he will look for a ladder or something to get up onto the deck, and proceed from there.

Hob, you head up the gangplank.. Several bodies are scattered on the deck, a blunderbuss is near one of them. The one closest to you has had it's throat ripped open.

[OOC: Well... that is not at all what I imagined. This ship isn't as big as I thought.]

Elizabeth put her PURSE back into its carry mode and slung it around her shoulder, a metal on metal tink sounding as she did so. She walked up the gang plank to the deck of the ship. She sees the bodies, and immediately starts twisting dials on her PURSE. It reconfigures itself to aid her vision. She places the, now binoculars, on her face. She lifts the helmet's face-guard as she does so. These bodies were torn up by something, and Elizabeth intended to find out what.

[OOC: Using the PURSE to make bionoculars with Analytical vision (2 ranks), Microscopic (1 rank, dust-size), Tracking (1 rank). Investigation check 14]

Although the glasses perform as expected they don't reveal much detail that can't be seen by the naked eye. You can tell that 'something' came up from the hold.

OOC- Everybody make a biology roll, intelligence check if you have no biology skill. Hob-you can have +2. Everybody can make an additional intelligence roll and add their ranged attack bonus.

Iggy bobs along behind the others, using his mechanical arm to slide closer to examine the corpses.

OOC-nice rolls. I will wait until I have a few more results before I say what you discover.

Hob Henderson
HP: 1; LP: 1; Condition: Normal

Hob moved forward onto the deck, letting the others climb aboard to do their own investigations. He started towards the body with the blunderbuss, only to hear a ominous creak as some weak planking complained about his weight. While he had spent some of his childhood along the docks, he had never been entirely comfortable on boats...

-INT roll (Biology) with +2 bonus: 1d20+4= 6
-INT roll + Ranged attack bonus: 1d20+4= 13

Ehhh. Not much help there.

Iggy-When you examine the bodies you can see that the bite marks were not made by a carnivore. There are no deep punctures that canine teeth would make. Also you can tell that the blunderbuss shot at and hit something but that there is no other blood that can't be attributed to the dead humans on deck.
