First Mate's Log (2)

Splash in the Water |
The calm surface of the lukewarm sea was disturbed until it became a roiling whirlpool that threatened to suck the entire ship down to Mike Nesmith's locker. From the middle of the maelstrom there arose a fearsome jellyfish, with a massive soft dome covering fierce spear-like bristles.

Draw a Big Storm Cloud on the Shower Wall |
A heavy, black, and pendulous storm cloud appeared in the sky, seemingly drawing its power from the ship's ration of crayons. The crew feared that it was an ill omen, but the Captain told them to becalm themselves; he had seen such a cloud before and knew what it portended. The Gods were looking out for the safety of the crew, and the cloud was there to hurl thunderbolts at any beast that might try to reduce our numbers.

Knock an Action Figure Overboard |
A mighty wind sprang up, threatening to swamp the ship while the crew scurried to strike the sails before they were torn apart. First Mate Jenkins stood atop the rigging, heedless of the gale, giving orders to the crew, until the wind gusted anew and flung him into the sea. We scarce had time to mourn his loss, as the splash when he landed threw up a great wave of bubbles which washed aboard the ship. The crew frantically shoveled the bubbles belowdecks to add to that which was already there. Then "Padre" Anderson said a few words for Jenkins, and the Captain ordered an extra ration of grog for the crew.
Lose 1 crew, gain 20-23 bubbles
Submerge Some Bubbles |
The Captain ordered the crew to release depth charges made from our precious foam supply. The crew respectfully questioned the captain's decision, but he explained the foam would slow the foul creatures of the deep that beset our cursed voyage.
