PC selection

I forgot to give rumors, so I'm just going to assign some to each player, and assume all of the PCs you control are aware of the same rumors.

KCC: Dwarves are unlucky—it’s well known having a dwarf onboard a ship will cause misfortune. Red-haired people on a ship are especially unlucky, even more so than dwarves. A red sky at night means good weather and, conversely, a red sky in the morning indicates an impending storm.

Len: Each ship has a Klabautermann—a water kobold—associated with it, for a ship that fails to obtain a Klabautermann cannot survive its maiden voyage. The Klabautermann can sometimes be heard singing sea shanties, but is never seen except when the ship is doomed. The Klabautermann can be called through song to help repair ships or protect the faithful.

Ogion: It’s considered bad luck to have three lit lanterns in the same compartment. Seabirds must not be harmed—the presence of seabirds brings good fortune for finding land and/or safety. Conversely, causing any harm to a seabird is terribly unlucky.

Harrigan: Dolphins swimming alongside a ship are a sign of good luck. Sharks swimming alongside a ship are a sign of bad luck. Captain de Keradel left one of her crew on the island before you set sail. The abandoned sailor looked deathly ill.

Lol

What are the leads we have to go on then? There’s the creature that needs to be killed and the ship that might be approaching.

Have we examined all the doors?

There's 1 room on the main deck that still hasn't been explored, the poop deck, plus the bottom 2 levels of the boat left to explore.

It's the room next to that one.

I don't remember you going to the second door. Didn't you grab the book, tell people about the herbs in bottles, then run outside when the alarm was shouted? Maybe I missed you going to the second door but I am sure I didn't describe it yet lol.

No biggie, but yeah, I think you missed it.
No worries, but Dengus's intent is to also check that other side.

Gotcha, missed/forgot the last line. I put Dengus with the other 2 PCs.

Coolio.

And with that, we are finished! I hope everyone enjoyed the nautical adventure. I definitely took some liberties with the module as written lol.

Thanks for running the game, nezz! As my first DCC funnel, it was a great experience.

Glad to hear it! Your characters were very fun!

Dish! Thanks for running!

More stalking by the creature, there's an option to swim out and check under the hull. I guess not too much different. Just more stalking and a final potential showdown with the creature. Blocking the hatches and setting fire to the boat was a great tactic and definitely not something the module planned for haha.
