The way you say that, I would like to emphasize that Brie is emphasizing that he is not holding any weapons, but yes he would adopt that posture while Rosey and Cavaliere attempt to talk the Griffons down

The red one looks at Posey's Halberd, then over to Brie, being unambiguously startled by Brie. The yellow one simply glances over at Brie, despite being the closest

The red one turns from Brie to Posey, unable to look at both given his position. He raises his right arm, and gives a "come here" signal.

From the cockpit, a white griffin comes in, carrying a tool that is functionally a shorter glaive, if definitely not intended for that role. From the lower deck, another griffin, black in color, has a rifle. Both of these griffins focus their weapons on Brie.

Yellow griffin moves up and levels his short sword. The red one levels his harpoon at Posey, and then looks to Cavaliere:

In Fetheasian:
"Ja, ik spreek Fethesiaans, en ik zal je laten weten dat ik eerder tegen piraten heb gevochten zoals jij. Denk je dat je mijn kroon kunt pakken? Kom en neem het! Je zult niet de eerste zijn die het vandaag heeft geprobeerd. Jullie Hauklanders kunnen ook mijn slaven zijn."

Silver, hearing noises from below deck, heads down to see what's going on. Kira, not wanting to disturb any of the creatures with her unusual body type and not wanting to crowd the below deck portion, stays on the deck to keep a lookout for any approaching creatures.

Posey asks Cavalier what the bird is saying, but doesn't wait to take up the "come here" offer, confidently strutting forward, right up to the griffon.

The black griffon looks to either side. "They think we are Haukland pirates. Please stand back and don't spook them."

If Posey does not accidentally become an undead pincushion, he replies to the crew,

"Wij zijn geen piraten en ook geen Hauklanders. Wij zijn hier om wat pony's te redden die op dit eiland zijn neergestort. Tijdens onze zoektocht vonden we jullie kamp en blijkbaar hebben jullie net zo goed redding nodig. Jullie mogen jullie bezittingen houden, maar jullie hebben medische behandeling nodig en moeten dit eiland verlaten omdat het niet veilig is."

"Ooooh," Vir lets out as a cartoonish bass-drop shiver travels from hooves to muzzle over her fur.

She's roughly cleans the head off a bit with her hoof as I assume it might be a bit muddy or something. As she does the head disappears and is replaced with a cherry red filly with a flowing carrot-orange mane being almost in-caged by black bars but they are hooves... Exoskeleton hooves with holes in them like Swiss cheese and the gleam of a fly separates her from the world of the living.

Vir falls on her rump and feel her neck strain as she physically pulls away from the vision and curves her spine into a reverse 'c'. She chews empty air but her but her mouth never closes and her teeth never meet. As saucer-sized eyes stare at the clouds above and refuse to blink to escape the visions assaulting her.

After a long moment, finally she breaths. Sound returns to the world and so does the cold wet that clings to her. Reality supersedes fantasy -- she's not there anymore.

She inspects the head again but with a fearful scowl etched on her face. Banishing ghosts by the force of grimace. She inspects the head: [1d20-1 = (1-1) = 0] Appraise

"It is, and unfortunately it is the one appearance we shouldn't have in these circumstances," he whispers back to Posey.

Speaking towards the griffons, "De pony's zijn eerder vandaag gecrasht, op een heuvel buiten het zicht van dit strand. Ze kwamen per vliegtuig. Wat betreft het afdichten, dat zal je hoe dan ook niet lukken. Dit schip is niet te repareren en zinkt nog steeds. Binnen een uur zal het volledig overstroomd zijn en zul je het moeten verlaten, waardoor je permanent gestrand bent."

He continues, gesturing toward the island. "Als de kou en honger je niet vinden, dan zullen de Stalliongraders dat wel doen. Dit is een betwist eiland, en er is al een Stalliongrad schip aan de andere kant geland. Ik weet niet welke verdragen jouw regering met hen heeft, maar ik kan je verzekeren dat ze jouw eigendom niet zullen respecteren."

Silver tries his hooves at pantomiming to the griffons, hearing that they're speaking in griffon languages he doesn't understand:

Silver points at himself, before giving a military salute and marching in place. He sits down, lifts up a forehoof and moves it slowly in the air while making the sound of an aircraft engine with his mouth. With his other forehoof, he points/punches it rapidly towards the first forehoof while making a dakadakadaka sound like machine gun fire. His other forehoof now bends into a hill or island shape, and the one in the air he brings down to the "island", whistling as if it's dropping out of the air. When it makes contact with the "island", Silver spreads his forelegs out with a bwoosh explosion sound from his mouth.

Following this, he looks to see if any of the griffons could have understood any of that.

He sighs,
"Ik heb het eerder onder water gezet. Ik moest wel. Mijn ontrouwe bemanning probeerde weg te komen met mijn boot. Ik kon ze niet toelaten. Ik ben het aan het repareren. Het zal weer afdichten. Ik zal opnieuw verzegelen.

We zijn hier al maanden! We zijn hier elk jaar geweest! We kunnen overleven, als we moeten vertrekken op zeehondenvlees en zeehondenvacht. Ik zal ervoor zorgen dat ze onze eigendommen respecteren. Ik heb geen ander vliegtuig gezien dan het vliegtuig dat vanmorgen voorbij vloog."

Cautiously he tries to reason with griffons whose sense of reason has been undermined–a dangerous prospect.

"Ik heb het eerder onder water gezet. Ik moest wel. Mijn ontrouwe bemanning probeerde weg te komen met mijn boot. Ik kon ze niet toelaten. Ik ben het aan het repareren. Het zal weer afdichten. Ik zal opnieuw verzegelen.

"Hoeveel pompen heb je draaiende die het overstroomde ruim sneller kunnen leegpompen dan de waterinlaat? Heb je brandstof voor ze? Je gewonde bemanning kan zeker geen handpompen aan die groot genoeg zijn. Er zijn nu tachtig Stalliongraders op het eiland, en er komen er waarschijnlijk nog meer, en ze zullen het eiland schoonvegen voordat je ooit zou kunnen hopen op weg te gaan. Je realiseert je toch wel dat ze pleiten voor hertoe-eigening van eigendommen, toch? Het is zinloos om tegen ze te vechten en ze zullen je kostbare kroon afpakken."

And, adding on, "Is er hier een pony genaamd Day Finder? Er zullen geen consequenties zijn als je eerlijk bent."

Indeed. ^^

Vir doesn't know the first thing about statues but It's made of white nice stone if maybe a bit grimy from being submerged in that water for a while.

She walked over to her cloak and bites hold of it and carries it back over. She looks around for any other pony, [1d20-1 = (7-1) = 6] search

Vir taps the ground in with annoyance. She swings her head and throws the cloak onto her form. She gets dressed in it. She look at the head and smacks her lips.

This is too valuable to just leave while getting that saddlebag. I'll have to come back for it later, she thinks to herself.

She rolls the head up on an steeper part of the riverbed and moves in "under" it to place it on her back. She tries to balance it on the area between her shoulder blades? and neck.

Since water doesn't lift it anymore, maybe it's heavier so I do a strength and balance check. You can disregard them if they are unnecessary. [1d20+1 = (15+1) = 16] stength [1d20+6 = (7+6) = 13] balance

If the flak jacket he was wearing did not hamper his movements so much, Silver could have dodged out of the way of the thrust. As is, he can't move out of the way fast enough before the harpoon finds purchase and punches through Silver's flak jacket, causing Silver to yelp out in pain.
