A successful mutiny has given you your own ship. You do not have enough crew to fully man her. Rickety Hake can squib the ship so she is not recognised by anyone who might try to hunt you down and more crew are sure to be found in the town of Rickety Squibs.
Man's Promise Crew and Map
Also everyone, I neglected to mention that after you sucessfully take control of your own ship as you did in the mutiny, you all level up to level 4.
Start at 2.
Level up after capturing the Man's Promise.
Level up after taking over the Man's Promise.
Next... Will you survive the island and find your friends?

Bonus Feat
At 4th level, and again at 12th, a clever godling receives a bonus feat. The godling must meet all prerequisites for these feats. For a clever godling, the feats may not be Combat Feats.
Bonus Feat Two-Weapon Fighting

Rosanne is ready to go. She took another level of Rogue.
From now on it will be Sorcerer until she can take Arcane trickster.
For a clever godling, the feats may not be Combat Feats.
Bonus Feat Two-Weapon Fighting (combat)
Is this correct or have you just not listed the bonus feat you took and TWF is your 4th level feat?
I have 5 currently for consideration, I am ok with the spheres character even though it is 3pp as I am familiar enough with how spheres works. So if you guys have any thoughts or considerations on any of them feel free to send me a private message.

Now, I have to admit this is my 1st time with Automatic Bonus Progression. I still need to figure out my gear. Suggestions are welcome.

Ah. Forgot about ABP when I leveled. Fix that now.
Yes so at level 4 you should have 3 ABP bonuses.
+1 resistance bonus to all saves
+1 attunement bonus to weapon
+1 attunement bonus to armour or shield

Welcome aboard.
I forgot the ABP as well, I'll go over Rosanne.

For me, the bonuses are to my bow, my leaf armor, and the resistance bonus. Factored in.
And thanks. Not really 'aboard' anything yet, given I'm shipwrecked!
Welcome to the team Earthsong and Amuro. You will both find yourselves washed ashore (with the ship you were on and all its passengers nowhere in sight) and quickly meet the others. That interaction will be all between you players as to reasons for joining (the ship certainly needs more crew members after all). I will update the gameplay thread shortly.

Thanks for taking me on! I'm in another Shackles game that's going to wind down soon, I will adapt and not use that knowledge and this is a very different crew :)
I forgot to mention starting gold for the newbies. At the start everyone rolled for wealth and there hasn't been a lot of loot to give out yet, as well ABP suggests reduced wealth.
Earthsong and Amuro will each have 400gp to spend with a restriction of no magic items except potions and scrolls and other consumables (alchemist's fire and so on).

Ok. Will get stuff accordingly.

Sorry I'm so quiet. PC has died on me and I'm scraping by on an old one while waiting on repairs.

That sucks. I'd wondered.

Everything all right? We've all been quiet all week? Or is the tent triggering PC claustrophobia?

Waiting for the GM to post?
I made a post then only earthsong posted. Was hoping more of you would react or post how you proceed.
I will have an update ready tomorrow to proceed

There is a serious family illness taking up my time. My posting may be interrupted. Please Bot me if needed.
Jacques are you still interested in playing this game?

I'm still here. I'll check what is happening and respond!
Life continues to be crazy. Definite update coming later today though.

I know the feeling. We're here when you're ready.
Happy new year, Christmas and everything to you all. I haven't eaten too much or gotten sick thankfully, though I have been super busy (supposed to be on holidays tho??).
We are returning to regularly scheduled updates today once I'm home from work. Let's keep this adventure going. Post in here to let me know who's still here.
As a holiday bonus, everyone receives a bonus hit point per level, like the toughness feat(and stacks with it too). I will also be rolling on the minor magic item tables to secret santa up some mystery gifts for everyone as thanks for playing and sticking with the game. I hope we can progress a ton further this year together.

Minor Magic Items
type: 5d100 ⇒ (68, 23, 42, 75, 42) = 250 3 potions, 2 scrolls
Haven't done it this way before but there we go. A random santa sack of magic items for the group to share. You possess these immediately and can work out fair use between you.
Ok so Earthsong, Tobias and Rosanne are still here. Not sure about Amuro and less sure about Jacques as he was not posting in combat for a while. I can post for them for now so we can get things rolling properly again.
If they still want to play then they have until you get off the island and to another port to join back in. I don't want to recruit any more stranded survivors just yet.

Update is in, everyone can post their round 2 actions.

The ghoul that paralysed Tobias now grabs him and pulls him back into the tent with her, dodging the sword swing from Amuro.
Oh śhìt.
Remember you guys still have the secret santa loot from my post above.
Still no Amuro or Jacques returning yet so I'll continue GMing them in combat but otherwise they will take a back seat and go along with your ideas.

Good point, thanks for the reminder. Rosanne will take the scrolls of Mount and True strike as she's the only one who can use them. The potions and scroll of Shield of faith can go to whoever can use them I guess?

I've no preferences for the loot. Tobias?

I'm away from home for the next two weeks, so posting may be slow. Please bot me if needed.
Skulls and Shackles: Return of the GM
Greetings everyone. It has been a long time, but I am back to continue. I am ok but things here have not been so well. We've had floods here in australia east coast (didn't lose anything thankfully) so lost power and internet for a time. Then after that I've had to move house and only just able to relax. Whenever I thought about my games here I was always busy doing something, when I could relax I forgot all about my plan to update games.
If you're all still keen to play then let's get straight back into it. It will update shortly. Apologies once again for the delays.
I will make up a little for the lost time by having you defeat the vine chokers so we can quickly move on through the game.

Good to have you back. Sounds like real life was kicking you hard for awhile.
Hope things are getting better for you.
