Ravalyassa Gladomain wrote:

Hi GM,

Ravalyassa Gladomain is a dedicated monk of Cagnazzo. She vowed a life of celibacy dedicating herself fully onto her Diety. Ravalyassa Gladomain is renowned as a hunter who personally seeks out and slaughters those who opposes his plans of bloody conquest. Being born of the water, Ravalyassa natural instinct is to carry out her life on the oceans and sea ports. She is also an opportunist relishing her bloodlust by joining pirate crews in raiding merchants ships and plundering sea ports.

I will add on more on her storyline to fit into the group's overall dynamic overtime. Her affinity to water should serve the crew well.

Do click on her name for the character details.

Some background story

background:
Since she was 14 years of age Ravalyassa claims that when she is fully submerged in the lake behind her village, she saw a vision of an entity named Cagnozza. With her ability to breathe underwater and her heightened sense when in water, she spent many hours and sometimes days on end submerged in the lake. Her concerned parents wrote a petition to the church of Iomedae for help and they dispatched a knight and 2 guards to bring her in.

However, Ravalyassa displayed unnatural grace and prowess and killed both the knight and 2 guards with her bare hands. Drench with the blood of her slain foes, Ravalyssa starting talking to an invisible being as if in a trance. When she come to her senses, she turned and walked away from her despaired parents and her former life.

She soon presented herself at the Temple of Cagnozzo located in the evil city of Cheliax and there she received her training. Her unique ability to commune with her deity soon elevated her to a position of great importance within the temple hierarchy. Ravalyassa found out that if she submerged herself in a pool of blood, she is able to commune on a higher level. Thus a weekly communion ritual was arranged by the temple by filling a pool of blood for Ravalyassa to commune. The scribes then later wrote down her visions and presents it to the High Priest.

One day after a communion ritual Ravalyassa told the scribes that Cagnozza wanted her to be the high priest. When the ruling high priest heard of that matter, he plotted her death and denounce her as a heresy and a false prophet. He sent a seven highly trained assassins to attack her at her quarters. However, despite the advantage of numbers all three out of seven assassins were killed by her. Ravalyassa however took heavy injuries as these seven assassins are of the deadliest caliber. The remaining four assassin manage to corner her along the cliff with crashing waves beneath it. Knowing her chances of survival is slim, Ravalyassa threw herself off the cliff and into the waves.

When she woke she found herself in the hull of a ship with bruises all over her body...

goes up to the barkeep! "YO Keep!, can I have a mug of ale for me please sir?"

After grabing the ale from the keep and tossing a couple of coppers at him I am going to sit down at the nearest table looking around for someone that I might know.

Oh Sunny? I know your here someplace. I know you are. come out and join me at my table, then we will dance."


She is "Formidably Maid" after all.

The barkeep turns to you and nods. He turns his back to you for a moment as you see him showing off some fancy moves, as he mixes your drink. Another man steps in front of his view on the other side. The two men nod as something looks to have been said and then the barkeep slides you the drink. "cheers.", Is the only thing he says before moving on to another patron.

Afzara takes out a couple of her coppers and asks raises her hand to signal the waitress she needs a drink. She just sits and watches trying to here if any ships are here hiring. "Sunny" is a name I have heard before. Wonder if it is the same one or a name that landbound people use a lot?

The Exchange

thanks
Raises his glass and says cheers and than takes a giant gulp o ale as he returns back to his looking at everyone else and kinda smiles

anyone want to play a quick game of dice? I bet ya can't beat me.

Seeing a Couple of new people walking in I kinda look up at them and nod

The young waitress starts moving over her slender form flowing through the crowd like that of water in a stream. She comes to a stop next to you and with a shy smile asks,"What can I get for you hun?" As she does this she innocently leans forward to hear better over all the noise.


I would like your cheapest ale, Ma'am. Afzara tries to appear normal but is trying to make sure her few coppers last her long enough to find work.

I made the character and only had 75 gold so bought the crossbow and figured I could have made some coppers. Unless you need me to buy more gear then is it ok if I just stick to that I have less than a gold and my crossbow from my mother if I am selected? Edit: Would add some carpentry tools to character if need to spend money.

The Exchange

Looks at Afzara and asks an island elf? is so I beleive it is the same one she has a habbit of poping in to this tavern quiet a bit and I know that she is a pretty little thing from the stories that I have heard.

Afzara is shaken. Ummm.... Sir, were you reading my mind?

The Exchange

No ma'am just know Sunny too well, may I join you ma'am?

The young waitress nods before walking off for a short bit. When she returns she sets the ale on the table. "Would you like anything else or are you "ok" for know?" Her slender hand held out slightly as if to ask for a tip.

If you only want to spend 75 gold on items I will not stop you. The only thing is a max gold spent of 150


Azfara gives the waitress a copper over what the drink costs. No Ma'am. Thank you for the drink.

You may join me though would not be much company. I am here just waiting to see if anyone is hiring.

Ok, will look at what can buy that she would not sell to have money.

The Exchange

Tis okay, I understand that,

it has been a nice couple of days here recently no storms or anything at this point, How do you know Sunny? I know of her from Tales from my friends. she is an extrodiary woman.


There was a big crowd and she showed up. She didn't stay long as she had to get back to her ship. The crowd was getting a little wild so I left. I don't know her. I just heard her and a couple of the ladies chatting and sharing some time with each other.

Afzara is trying hard to be polite but is more important to her to try and here if someone might be hiring crew.

The Exchange

slight of hand to place coppers in her pocket
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Afzara, calm down it is alright trust me, I understand that your trying to find some one that will hire you. Just Relax. it will happen. It will happen.
Sense motive
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11


A gaunt figure gets up from a corner table where he sits in the shadows and lithely navigates the patrons and tables and arrives at the bar. His skin is pale, his eyes slightly bloodshot and he commands the gaze of the barkeep who looks at him nervously.

"what'll it be, Chills?" the barkeep asks with a slight trepidation, but steady and bold.

"A glass of red wine and a bit of raw liver if your cook can spare it", Chills replies, looking around to see if anyone noticed his odd request.

"Uh, yeah, the wine's coming right up, but I'll have to check with the kitchen for your... special request", says the barkeep.

"Have the new waitress bring it over", nodding at a rather fanciful girl, "I'll be at my table." and Chills drops several silvers on the bar.

Chills then returns to his table, again with an unnatural grace, where he sits alone, his gaze fixated on the new girl.

The barkeep whispers to a patron, "I can't wait for the Wind Reaper to be off, that guy gives me the creeps" and Chills looks over and the barkeep smiles nervously and quickly heads to the kitchen.


That may be but it is hard being booted off because ship lost money on bad goods. Afzara looks a little downcast as she remembers her mentor on the boat. Gorn was really nice even if he could not speak for having no tongue. Her shoulders slump a bit thinking back before she shakes herself to pay attention.

I know a berth will happen but I don't want to be just a sailor. Want to explore and also work on making the ship run right and well. They deserve the proper attention. They provide a wonderful home if treated right.


is this now a role play introduction thread? if it is I have horrible luck with those.

Quietly slipping into the tavern a short girl dressed in an old bloodied jester's tunic and ragged trousers, her black hair done up in a pair of cockeyed pony tails. she takes a seat at a table not near to many people and starts to size up the others.

my fault there
------------------------------------------------------------------------

nods towards Afzara
understood, I have been on shoreleave for a couple of days now, my ship is leaving in a couple more days. what do you do ma'am? I have been trying to move up on my ship and maybe finding someone with talent for being on a ship might help me do that. Would you like an introduction to the first mate and Capt if I could arrage it?

It is in no way mandatory for the recruitment. I see it as a way to pass time. As I'd like to keep to my word about closing recruitment Friday.


On that note!
Friday at 12:00PM CST will be when recruitment closes.

The Exchange

Okay


Afzara is still trying to listen to other snips of conversation. I was an apprentice the shipwright of the lady I was serving aboard. Was mainly just learning how to sand and seal replacement pieces of the ship. I was about to learn about how to attach replacement parts to the the ship and make it meld in with the lady so she would stay looking sharp.

Hey folks... A good game to all. But, I think I need to bow out. Good luck my fellow Arcanes!

Grand Lodge

A tall gnome with green hair strolls in, takes a deep breath, and heads over to the barkeep. Hopping up on a stool, he cheerily calls out, "Greetings, my good man! Do you perhaps know how to make a 'Remesiana Sunrise'? I suddenly got a craving for one just as I entered your fair city, haven't had one in, oh, must be ten years now. And a plate of your best fish!"

He looks around at the other people in the bar, keeping an ear out for anything that sounds promising...

The Exchange

ye be a shipwright? Hmm intresting I am not sure how good outs in that is why we ate
Here for repairs. This was the closest dock we had been hit by a pirate again even though our ship was flying the same flag

Looking at the gnome that walked in and yells hey Gnome! Have ya seen Sunny lately? I think you might know her she like to hang around with your type. Sunny is a island elf everyone knows of her in way or another have ya seen 'er?

Looking back at afzara ya. Sorry about that so let me get ya an invite if ya want we got room


A large man with raven hair comes in and bellows at the barkeep "Keep, pint o mead" then tosses a silver on the bar before sitting down," and tell me when that runs out!" Then gives a wink to a passing barmaid and starts flirting with another.


I was an apprentice and not a shipwright. Big difference and my mother would lay it to me if I suggested I was more than I was. She is looking around nervously. It is starting to get noisy and she is worried about it getting rowdy.

I appreciate the offer but hoping to find another apprenticeship. I would be happy to do it as that but sounds like you either had bad luck and need more than can be done on the sea or you don't have a shipwright on board.

The Exchange

okay then no problems at all I guess

this girl is nuts I offer her to go to a good ship and she freaks out

Looking down at my cup

missy? Can I have another ale please and this time tell the keep not to make it so sour for me only a 1/2s squeeze of lemon


Too much like the previous threads once again. Dropping.


Looking to submit my 1st PBP character, a Chaotic Neutral Undine Ranger, no archetype.
Combat style will be archery, prefering to attack from range, and fire arrows are a great weapon on the open sea.
Hunters Bond would be to an animal companion, most likely forming a bond with a bird.
Would look to swap our energy resistance for Flesh Chameleon, as he has spent his adult life trying to blend in, knowing the superstitous nature of sailors.
Campaign Trait: Desmara's Blessing, because I like the unknown destiny bit.

Background:

Xaven sat on the rocks, staring out to sea as the sun set behind him. As the surf crashed around him, his mind drifted across the waves and back to that day......

He remembers an island, a village, home? Blue-skinned villagers, two faces are prominent in his memories, his parents most likely. The next scene he remebers, a terrible storm, shouting, fire streaking across the sky, then darkness....

.....The salty spray of the sea brings Xaven back to the present, with the sun almost gone, time to seek shelter, perhaps that tavern, the Formidably Maid, "I need a drink..."

The Exchange

To all players !! This was my idea and I had asked the gm we are going to stop here I do not want anyone dropping out because of this it is unfair to people I want everyone to have A fair shot


Thank you Gruff,

Tomorrow I plan to ask a few questions of everyone to help me start putting together the group. When all is said and done on Saturday. We will start playing up the characters.
