Negotiating the workers, and craftsfolk to get their fortress repaired and begin developing their island was quiet a but of work, but a delightful success, one that was greatly enhanced by the dazzling Audessa Reyquio and her retinue.
We're developing one hell of a reputation...I like it!
"Definitely establish rules that we expect our guests to follow." Rhialla agrees, "While being attended by such lovely staff will go a long way to impressing the Captains, anyone working for us will have our full protection."
Audessa is being reasonable in her pricing. She can see you are building a new settlement and the idea of her own establishment is very attractive to her.
She basically wants to own her own building rather than depending on others. In return she'll provide you with your own tavern, fest-hall and brothel in the fort. If not in the fort then one of the new port buildings when they go up. You get reduced prices for her and her girls services, they save up some money and get their own business.

"To get our hands on a lot of rum, we can buy it from a seller, we can raid a ship for its cargo, or... we could look for a sunken ship that was transporting a lot of rum and salvage the intact bottles. Preferences?"
As you prepare for the upcoming visit of the lords of the Pirate Council, an interesting bit of information falls into your hands, courtesy of some judicious eavesdropping by Pierce Jerrell.
He's Eager to see you succeed in your bid to join the Pirate Council, he reports that a shipment of smuggled rum will soon be leaving Hell Harbor for Cheliax, aboard a ship called the Jester's Grin.
If you can "liberate" this cargo, you'll acquire plentiful, quality libations for your dinner party that should impress your visitors.
According to Pierce a smuggler named Fargo Vitterande captains the Jester's Grin. Rumors indicate that Vitterande uses his
cover as a smuggler to occasionally spy for Cheliax, and that he often works as a smuggler for Arronax Endymion, the ex-Chelish admiral who is lord of Hell Harbor and holds a seat on the Pirate Council.
Ashlei smiles, and cracks her knuckles.
"Time to hunt us down a Jester, I would say. Everyone on board with that? I need something to drink..."
Pierce Jerrell informs you that the Jester's Grin is scheduled to stop at Ghrinitshahara in the Rampore Isles to drop off a shipment of slaves and take on fresh water before the long journey north to Cheliax.
Once the ship leaves the Shackles, it will be almost impossible to find,
so you have one chance to catch the Jester's Grin.
It is almost directly south form the isle of empty eyes to the Rampore isles and you make good time, your crew happy to be sailing again after so long waiting in harbor.
Several days out of the isle the lookouts calls "Sail to the south-east Captain. Heading straight for us!"
What are you doing now? You have several minutes to prepare
It's been a few weeks so I thought I'd give you a little fight to get back into the groove. :)

"Let's get confirmation on that sail!" calls out Cass.
"We should make sure we're fighting the right ship! I mean, it looks like we'll be fighting anyway, but if it's not the Jester's Grin, could be much more dangerous."
As the other ship draws closer the lookout calls out, "It's the 'Damned jewel' Captain!
Knowledge local DC20:
Shackles pirates boarded and took this ship from a careless merchant sailing too close to the Shackles as he made a break for Sargava. Since
then, this trade vessel has been outfitted with ballistae and a ram. Captain Moray Jove reinforced the hull and repurposed the ship for taking on other pirates.
Not a Free captain, one of the Shackles pests. :)
What now? You have two minutes still to ready yourselves.

"That ship was taken by one Captain Moray Jove." Esmarelda said when she heard the name of the ship. "Trying to make a name hunting other pirates, looks like word got around to everyone now that we got this place and they're thinking it might be easy picking. Shall we prove them wrong?"
Ashlei loads a bolt into the ship's ballistae with a smile, kissing gently it first.
"I plan on shoving one of these up that damn Captain Jove's @$$ is what I plan to do..."
Do we turn and look for advantageous waters to fight in, or do we move closer, hoping to win in a direct fight? We know they are heading straight at us, but are we heading straight at THEM? Is our ship faster or slower? In the end, Ashlei could care less as long as she gets to gut someone, but I think this seems a bit too convenient since they just happen to be in the same area as us right now. Sounds like we were led into a trap of some sort? Don't we also have a second ship we captured?
You know the Damned jewel has been fitted with a ram so it will most likely attempt to ram and board. Using it's ballistaeto keep your other ship off it's back. Standard tactic for ram ships.

He said rolling his shoulders scracking his neck and preparing to all in all get into a bit of a fistfight.
Ashlei 'whoops' at that and pounds her hand on the nearby rail...
"Could you imagine their faces! Woosh...ram disappears! Let's do that! Don't forget, I have my 'Rod of Fun' too!...NOOO! Not that one! The one that shoots magic stuff!...NOOOOOO! The ONE I got on the island you damnable curs..."

Uttering a dark prayer as she handles he wheel, Rhialla stares across the gap to the other ship, roiling smoke beginning to appear in a spot on the deck, signaling the approach of her summoned aid.

I wonder if there is a magical item that lets to do small teleports in battle... So much double moving!
Esmarelda ran down the legnth of the ship to join up with Ashlei. "Right behind you Ash" She said with a playful smirk on her lips. "Try and leave some for me yeah?"
I wonder if there is a magical item that lets to do small teleports in battle... So much double moving!
There are a few...Some don't teleport but do similar effects: Shoes of Lightning Leaping, Jaunt Boots, Getaway Boots, Boots of Teleportation, Dryad Sandals, Boots of Speed, Boots of Striding and Springing, Boots of Swift Fury, Boots of Refuge, and Boots of the Raptor. Beyond magic items there are some spell-like abilities:
Deception[Sub-Domain] - Associated Domain: Trickery.
Replacement Power: The following granted power replaces the copycat power of the Trickery domain. Sudden Shift (Sp): In the blink of an eye, you can appear somewhere else. As an immediate action, after you are missed by a melee attack, you can teleport up to 10 feet to a space that you can see. This space must be inside the reach of the creature that attacked you. You can use this power a number of times each day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier.
Travel Domain
You are an explorer and find enlightenment in the simple joy of travel, be it by foot or conveyance or magic. Increase your base speed by 10 feet.
Dimensional Hop (Sp): At 8th level, you can teleport up to 10 feet per cleric level per day as a move action. This teleportation must be used in 5-foot increments and such movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity. You must have line of sight to your destination to use this ability. You can bring other willing creatures with you, but you must expend an equal amount of distance for each creature brought.
Smiling at the appearance of the elemental salamander, Ash crooks an eyebrow and shouts words in Ignan to the temporary guest as the pirate in the purple sash dies loudly in a bloody spray of open wounds...
When an opponent makes a melee attack against the swashbuckler, she can spend 1 panache point and expend a use of an attack of opportunity to attempt to parry that attack. The swashbuckler makes an attack roll as if she were making an attack of opportunity; for each size category the attacking creature is larger than the swashbuckler, the swashbuckler takes a –2 penalty on this roll. If her result is greater than the attacking creature's result, the creature's attack automatically misses. The swashbuckler must declare the use of this ability after the creature's attack is announced, but before its attack roll is made. Upon performing a successful parry and if she has at least 1 panache point, the swashbuckler can as an immediate action make an attack against the creature whose attack she parried, provided that creature is within her reach. This deed's cost cannot be reduced by any ability or effect that reduces the number of panache points a deed costs.
Opportune Parry!:
Spending a Panche point and an AoO to Parry the next melee attack! Starknife Parry!:1d20 + 18 ⇒ (15) + 18 = 33

The cloudkill will float away from Cass and eventually roil its way off the ship, but in the meantime it persists and still does Constitution damage to anyone stuck in it.
Cass analyzes the battlefield and decides that since there's a salamander and an Ash burning everyone, she might as well contribute.
