I'm happy trading off my loot from the cavern and taking the loot from the body on deck

Is my narration making any sense with regards to ship positioning? Is everyone imagining what I'm imagining? I am loathe to attempt a battle map.

• Safford Stampes & goons draw blades. Kestrel is docked. Port is on (of course) port side. Chain boom on the starboard side. Strumpet is stealthing.

• Stampes is dancing around, but Kestrel crew aren't screwing around, least of all Grog and Zale. Strumpet shows up, tries to get alongside Kestrel.

• Stampes gets wrecked. Strumpet crew freaks, turns hard to starboard to make a run for it.

• Harold and other old geezers show up. Strumpet still fleeing. 50ft away to starboard  now. Nela melts the boom chain with lightning. Ian gives the order to pursue. Geezers skedaddle. Kestrel casts off.

• Strumpet widens the distance to 100ft, but Nela stops her with Control Water. Kestrel turns 90° to starboard. Shots fired. Zale, Astrias, and Jineer lead the chase.

• Zale does a Bruce Lee on Strumpet's deck, while Jineer does a James Bond. Kestrel gains on Strumpet, which is still stuck in Nela's trap. Only 45ft gap now. Kestrel's chase gun keeps firing. Strumpet has got no rear gun.

• Unable to make headway, Strumpet turns 90° to starboard, fires broadside at Kestrel. Jineer finds the powder magazine.

• Jineer lights it up! Strumpet is dead in the water. Scurvy dogs abandon ship, but Zubak is standing his ground.

I've been rereading Control Water more closely. Apparently we've been doing it wrong: You can only have one effect active at one time (action to repeat an effect, or switch to a different one) meaning Nela could not have summoned capsizing waves using Flood while maintaining Redirect Flow. It's okay, it was fricking badass. But for future reference.

Hello all, sorry for the short notice on this. However, due to some real world stress and busy-ness, I need to take a step back for a few weeks to focus on that. I miss and have much love for all of you, so I will be back. ;)

Thanks for the heads up, @drama! Take however much time you need. That said, I look forward to your return!

We can hand-wave any shopping sprees, or we can roleplay it. Whichever you prefer.

Decide how you want to split the loot (gems, folding boat, fancy chest, pistol-axes) between everyone who participated in the fight.

Does anyone want to go see Bob about those sea charts?

Phillipp don't truly deserve any of that so he'll soft pass on it


lemme know what i can and cannot buy here at the market place, Daddys got a lot of silver and needs to get some shirts!!! XD

Sorry for the silence everyone. Research paper, foggy mind set, and room renovation have had me pretty tied up.

If no one minds, Grog would like the axe-pistols. Though if someone already claimed them, that's fine. I still need to catch up to everything.

Jineer wants the Boat!

Just don't go on any 3-hour tours anytime soon. There's a Titanic II being made and going on the same route, and we don't need a Minnow II making the same mistake.

Make it so #1 This must happen now!

There are four lights! Either someone cast dancing lights or we have will o' wisps on board!

Created a Loot thread. Guys, a lot of this crap are attunement items. Remember that a creature can be attuned to no more than three magic items at a time. Any attempt to attune to a fourth item fails; the creature must end its attunement to an item first.

Also, I remind you to watch your encumbrance.

So you mean the silk handkerchief and the notebook of limericks?
