This was an awesome little adventure, a shame it ends so quickly. Really enjoyed seeing what low-mid level play has to offer in 2E. And some reptilian shenanigans. GM thank you for being awesome and allowing me to jump in on the table, how does credit work on this one. It's just assigned to the character I picked at the beginning(ie Jei'balt)?
Axutain eyes the ship and the pond leading to the greater seas. "One ssship, fourrr captains... hmmm perhapsss if we stick to warmer waterrsss. I know a good ssspot off the coast of Osirion where once sssunk a fabled ssship that few others could dive deep enough for."[b] He grins with a slyness that betrays his reptilian nature. [B]Besssidesss I mussst insssure Tiny Corrrvusss doesss not drown in mighty pond."
Sorry for the absence work has been kicking my butt with 12s and I'm working on the details to get a new car tomorrow. I'll try to post later today, if I don't get around to it bot me for the round axutain will try his usual intinidate(can skeletons even get scared) attack combo.
Axutain stuffs the rugged club into the loose belt he wears and makes sure it is fastened as they traverse into the new room. "Could do with sssome Night Glassss, but it ssshall ssserve well enough." He stands in aw at the pillars and the various constellations, "A reading of the grand map. What a ssstrange aussspiccciousss texxt. We would do well to ruminate wisely over it's meaning."
With this information in hand and throwing what little caution he could to the wind, on account of no immediate danger. Axutain takes up the mighty club and gives it some cursory swings. "Thissss isss more my ssstyle, and easssy to ussse for one ssskilled in ssswimming like myssself. Take care that we jussst honor your dessscendants." He moved to the statue to give it a once over.
Once the elemental has dispersed and their wounds mended the Iruxi nods to the others, "Good we are all ssstill living. It would be ineffective of me if you were to drown to a writhing tide when not actually ssswiming." Axutain follows the rest of the group to the weapon room and looks genuinely confused. "Isss thisss how warm bloodsss ressspect their ancessstors? Why not carry their honored bonesss with you? That isss the bessst way to do sssuch." He goes about the weapon racks searching with all the subtlety and grace of a cold-blooded creature looking for nothing more than an effective tool.
"Then back to the depths of the outer sphere you go. For I cast ye back unto the waves. Begone from this place ancient and know that one of Xuetal's line hath sent ye!" Axuatain again has a heated debate with the waves and launches his spear twice with ferocity rarely seen from the typically cold natured reptilian.
"I shall see you gone back to the place which summoned you!"
Axuatain takes a second look at the basin from a different angle and his tongue flicks out tasting the air for just a moment. He pulls a small scrap of paper from his bag of holding, which thankfully keeps all his things nice and dry. "Ahh warm-friendsss perhapsss I may be of assissstance once more." He shows them all the clue.
Clambering down from the ship and going over to the beheaded snake he picks it up. "Were that you took a moment before ssstriking." The Iruxi took a bite from the still warm stringy body of the snake and worked his jaws at it for a bit. He looked to the others, "Wasste not want not. I believe is how you warm-bloods sssay it?" Following Sawbones into the entrance of the cave he looked ahead. "I would sssuggest I take point in the cassse there are more... unexpecteds. That is if we are all in agreement on that matter?" He snacks on the snake as they all deliberate.
Reptilian:
"Please scale-kin we meant not to disturb your warm rest. If we can offer you a warm bask in a faster fashion than the hot-rock may, would you let us pass without quarrel? T'would be better than soaking yourselves in the fridge waters for revenge." Axuatain hisses and clicks towards the slithering swarm in an attempt to coax them from attacking the group.
Axutain tilts his head at the strange piece of paper, "Tell usss tiny Corvusss. Where did you get this map pieccce?" He scratches his scaly chin as they all examine the wheel. "Dessspite my time with the Captain, and the crew, I can not sssay I know what is truly the home of piratesss. I defer that to you."
The Iruxi would then head down, onto the deck to check the ship to see how much she has rotted over the years beached upon these sands. Perhaps there were more clues, perhaps the ship was more salvagable than they all believed?
Axuatain delighted in helping Corvus up and went about looking at the old ship. The vessel had seen better days for certain and he was a little surprised that the Andoran Navy hadn't seized her for their own use those years ago. Heading over to the back of the ship behind the wheel he gave a sigh for what was once his favorite sunning spot. "Perhapsss there isss aught in the hull ssstill yet to be claimed. I would have a dive before we leave at the very least." He kneels and places a palm on the deck, "May you sssail upon dissstant shoresss."
Axutain watched the others paddle their way out to the half-sunken vessel and waded back into the water quickly swimming to catch up to Corvus. "I sssee you have been practicing. If ever you need a break I may carry you." He then continues on swiftly using his paddle-like tail and webbed feet to quickly outpace the group grasping the side of the hull and hauling himself up.
The friendly Iruxi would offer a hand up for the crew as they approached the vessel.
The lizardfolk flicks his tongue through the air for a moment, and then gives a hissing laugh at Corvus. "Do not worry I will not let you drown. But yes ssship home has ssseen better years." Setting his Macahuitl down Axutain looks to Gryndle, "Ah this one has seen warmer seas after our releases from the armsss of 'jussstice'. Sunken ruins near the sand-homes of Totra. Though they were not ruins of my ancesstors it as a good recovery. The fissshes were hungry but I got the last bite." With another raspy laugh he takes a seat next to the bladed plank, soaking up the heat of the sands and the sun. He played idle with the necklace of bone-charm around his neck as he often did contemplatively years ago. "What of you all, tiny corvus has been speaking with sea spirits again? And what of less tiny Gryndle beyond keeping belly full for people and ssself?"
Axutain slithered up to the beach head before giving himself a righteous shake down, his simple bone and shark hide clothing shirking off the water. The long claw paddle-like feet of the bizzare, by most humanoids, lizardfolk waded up to the long lost crewmen from ages past. Still the skink-like Iruxi hissed in greeting as he approached. "Ahhh Sssso good to sssee you all again. Gryndle I hope you have been eating well? It'ss a great way to keep sssscales preened and shiny." He approaches uncomfortably close to Sawbones and gives him a once over. "This one has barely aged a day, though more sssun he could ssseek. Any new treasuresss to dredge up like the good ol' days?" Catching the glint of Corvus the Lizardman's head snaps towards the tiny sprite and there is a brief moment you aren't quite sure he isn't going to lash out as if he saw a scuttling crab, before his lips part into a smile filled with jagged teeth. "Tiny Corvusss, Let usss not need to fish you out of any ssscale-siblings by the end of the day yes." Aside from the adoring bone, tooth, and shark-skin, the lizardfolk wears a large runed macuahuitl upon his back, a faintly glowing shortblade at his hip that gives Corvus an off feeling, a seaweed wrapped spear, and a bundle of short javalins held in the quiver by sinew strings. "Sssound of pessky, but shiny poultry hard to miss, but familiar enough to me that I not snatch him from air. Find friends here on ssstrange beach. The years have been kind I hope?"
Your Name (as you want it on the chronicle): Azil
I'm not sure how the applying the stuff from this chronicle works if you need the info for my character outside of this campaign/scenario lemme know and i'll toss his info down. Axutain is officially ready for play I believe, but since he's like my 3rd character i've sat down and made in 2e if anyone would like to give him a once over that'd be awesome. GM I've taken some liberty with the Jellyfish lamp and stuffed them into a hooded lantern, the idea being he carries around a small school of the jellyfish in a hooded lantern that's been modified to hold sea water(which is refreshed from time to time of course) Basically making a dim lantern(since they work as candles) he can use during underwater exploration. If this isn't ok to do then I understand, i just thought it'd be a creative use of the 50gp
Ok, so when picking wealth permanent items can someone give me a bit of advice here, cause we're only allowed a single uncommon/rare choice, mine being that i'm a lizardfolk. But i'm having difficulty finding non-uncommon items that fall into the 'common' tier of items. Or are our wealth items an exception of this rule?
So i'm going down the creation list and the lizardfolk i'm looking at making is gonna be the unnerving deep diver who brings up hauls from sunken ships. He generally gives off just a creepy reptilian vibe which intimidates people.
