Larnia hesitated.. and remained kneeling, ignoring Marnia's request!

"I mean.. I wasn't challenging you to fight, you see."
Dreadmaw mused, catching Marnia's first fist with relative ease with that massive claw.
"That'd imply you were someone capable of challenging me."
She mused, only to be punched in the face for her haughty effort. Her head tilted backwards... and Marnia realized, she'd missed The Dreadmaw captain after all, even when she'd tried her best to hit her, her own hand shaking ever so slightly, as Dreadmaw, almost gently took it, and pushed it down.
"See, you need to actually want to kill me. Even if you don't acknowlege it yourself, your subconscious is afraid to even dare strike me."
As Marnia's hand grew sizzling hot, Dreadmaw let go of her, with an almost benevolent smile.. no, that hadn't been true, had it? It was that strange heat that distorted the very air around Dreadmaw and had made Marnia miss in the last moment, right?
Well, she would fall like everyone else, wouldn't she?
When Marnia tried to sweep her leg, Dreadmaw didn't try to evade. Instead, she raised her own heavy boot, and trampled against Marnia's, claw-hand gripping her and Slamming
her onto the ground, Crimson claw hovering above Marnia.
"This is how you overpower someone."
She informed, whilest Jec was busy bombing the audience, taking out about half of them.. not downing them, but there were some severe burns, as well as sick coughing, along with a sigh from Dreadmaw.
"Why does no one believe me these days. When I say I can handle all of you on my own.."
She mused, lifting her claw.
"Hellfire Eruption!"
She declared, and Marnia's errupted into a pillare of dark-red fire as that claw closed around her. But that wasn't even the worst bit. Due to her elemental blood, the Genie girl never had to worry about hot or cold.. but, right now, she felt something she'd never experienced, short of the hottest of magical fires, the sting of heat, all over her body.
"Hmn. Resistant to fire eh? Genie blood if I had to guess." (Marnia takes 25 Fire damage and her fire resistance is reduced by 5 points!)
Dreadmaw left Marnia lying where she was after her attack, wandering to the edge of the ship to glance down and sigh with annoyance.. only three of her crew had remained kneeling, everyone else was too busy being sick or readying weapons for a counterattack.. One Glare from the pirate queen put an end to that.
"Guess I got to make myself clear."
"Trail of Damnation!" She shouted, suddenly being engulfed by blood red flames, as she rushed forwards in an instant, her claw raised to cut down Jec.. and that it did, The poor mouse stumbling back as she was slashed by an eruption of fire! (You take 35 Fire damage. Your fire-resistance is now reduced to -3, meaning you take 3 fire damage every turn near Dreadmaw Furthemore, Reflex save, DC 19 or catch on fire from her attack and take further damage!)
"I didn't come here to fight, I came here to tell you about how things are done around here. If you are too stupid to understand that, and you very well may be, I have no problem burning half of you up, but if you want to move ahead from that waste, all you got to do.. is kneel."
Dreadmaw demanded, dark fires now engulfing her like a cloak.
"Don't listen to her. She's limited in how often she can do that trail-thing! Rovana declared.
"For true piracy!"
She encouraged everyone, rushing forwads.
"I can steal your fire-magic for myself, you know I.. ugh!"
But dreadmaw caught Rovana's attack as well, pushing her aside with an expression that almost seemed more annoyed than threatened.
Siley narrowed her eyes at Mitena.
"Didn't you hear? The captain wants you to kneel, so down, bad dog! You're all lucky the captain is in a good mood today!"
Ylria kicked down the gankplank.. now no new pirates would come to attack them... although it genuinly seemed as if only dreadmaw was there, ready to fight.
"Alright, getting tired of this an-"
But she was cut off, by a

, the size of a pony, clasping it's pincers around her throat!.. only to chitter and back off, it's pincers burned by flames licking around the pirate.. even if it left a blood gash on Dreadmaw's neck.. so she was not untouchable.. Chiri peered out of the shadows and gave a thumbs up to everyone that'd dare look.
Dreadmaw meanwhile squeezed her burning red-hot claw into a taloned fist.
"This whole ganking up mentality is -exactly- what got you in trouble in the first place... You think you have a chance. You think maybe, if you try hard enough, all together against me, you'll miarculously win. Fair warning: This isn't a fantasy. This is real life, and you'll get really messed up if you don't learn your place!"
