woot woot. Looking forward to getting this on the road again.
Taize I feel your pain... some people in this world...

maybe you have too many taize, who knows. And yes i hope Dac makes it back soon, and all is well with him.
Jensen looks Jack up and down. "I want to know your name. I'm new here and need to find some mates. A little you watch my back and I'll watch yours. I want to know who is worth knowing around here." Hopefully this man knows a little something about the goings on about the ship. I could really use some insight... and my damn book and pouch back. Looking a little irritated Jensen waits for Jack to respond.
Waking up from a daze Jensen starts thinking about what his next action should be. Well as long as I'm stuck on this poorly built rig, with some damn crazy men who find enjoyment out of killin a man, I should probably look at finding some people to watch my back. Tai seems to be pretty genuine so hopefully she doesn't get herself keelhauled. That was a nasty sort. At some point I need to find my cutlass because I am getting a bad feeling about some of the crew. Jensen looks around at the people surrounding him. He will pick a man out and approach him. "Hey you, whats your name? Been here long?"
Hey guys wanted to apologize for the MIA, I've been in the process of moving and haven't had the free time i had hoped. If its alright for me to jump back in I would love that. Just let me know.
Jensen stops looking, and turns to Taize with a smile. "Didn't quite expect the recruiters to pick up a lass such as you. My name is Jensen, and to answer your question no I have not. Might be learning to real quick here though. Not quite what I had planned for my great adventure on the sea." He will look Taize up and down for a second. "What kind of talents do you hide behind your pretty face?"
Jensen will mosey on in the direction the first mate has pointed him. Cooking huh, this could get real interesting but at least this lass they are sending me with may know a thing or two about cookin. Who knows I might even learn a thing or two. He seems to be carefree at the moment.
my i suggest putting the ship actions and such into the campaign info page, so it is not lost in the posts and we will have easy access to and what not. such as done here.
"I've been known to fish, but never cooked a day in my life." Jensen responds. Trying to read Mr. Plugg, not getting much.
That captain seems like the nasty sort. Better watch my step here until I can get this situation figured out. Mr. Plugg on the other hand doesn't seem to be the brightest fellow around, shouldn't be too hard to get over on him. And with that Jensen moves up to his rope and begins to climb. Watching Kestryl get off to a zooming start, he tries his best to get up as well. Climb checks:
Jensen looks at the man with the whip, lets slide a slight smile. Bet ya that hurts like a b~@*&. Best to just fall in line and get a feel for this capt'n he's talking about. Hopefully I haven't found myself on a ship as nasty as the Blood Moon. He will fall into the line up, and wait for more instructions.
Jensen opens his eyes, with a raging headache from the night before. He lays there and looks around. Taking note of who is here with him, he searches himself looking for his smokes, or anything else for that matter, and finds nothing. Well damn, least they could have done was leave me some smokes. Wonder where I am... And why do all these kids gotta be so loud in the morning. With that Jensen will stand up and take a better perception of his surroundings. "Best to just wait it out here, I've heard slavery ain't all that bad." Jensen laughs with that comment, and with a smile and checks for the reactions it gets. Lets see who is weak here. In this kind of situation the weak will only get people hurt
"I see, that would explain it. Forgive me for ruining the hand, I guess I fold." Jensen will set the rest of his cards down. That one may be a slippery one, I can't really tell though. Ah well time for some fresh air. Jensen will get up and say "I'll sit out the next hand, I'm going out for a smoke."
Looking forward to it.
"Toss me two more, looks like this time you got a chance kid." Jensen smiles and tossing two of his cards into the discard pile. cards:
He tosses in the Ace of spades and 3 of spades
ace of spades and 8 of hearts were drawn. hand = ace of spades, 8 of hearts, 2 of diamonds, king of diamonds, 10 of diamonds. Jensen looks at the two cards he is dealt for a moment. What the hell is this. Jensen looks over at Kestryl, "There is some foul play here." He moves and grabs one of the cards he just threw down and reveals an ace of spades. "Young lady you have just dealt me a card that I have already thrown away." He tosses down a card he was just dealt, it also being the ace of spades. He looks at Kestryl waiting for a reaction.
"I will call your copper" Jensen procedes to throw his coin in.
Jensen tosses his copper in, picks up his cards and studies them. "I will go with 3 copper raise" The pot is now 6 copper. My cards: here we go
re roll the 10 of diamonds
I have a 2 of diamonds, ace of spades, king of diamonds, 10 of diamonds, 3 of spades.
Finally a little luck is on my side, lets keep this up and maybe i can get the attention of one of the fine ladies around here tonight. Jensen will motion for some cards. "Keep em coming kid."
Jensen throws his cards out with a smirk. "Ha Ha, I got you this time little girl. Three of a kind 3's with a Jack to boot." Jensen will start to take the pot to his side of the table. Show Hand:
3, 2, 42, 53, and 11: 3 of spades, 3 of spades, 2 of spades, Jack of spades, Joker(wild)
"I'll raise you another 5" Jensen throws a few more copper into the pot, making the total 18 copper pieces. Now staring down kestryl, waiting for her to make her move.
"I call your two, now give me one card you swag." Jensen throws one of his cards in, motioning for another. My cards: trading 10 of hearts 3 of clubs, 3 of spades, 2 of spades, Jack of spades, Joker(wild) three of a kind 3's
"hmm let's see here."
" I will raise you five." My cards you peek, you die:
So 3 of spades, 2 of spades, Jack of spades, joker(wild), 10 of hearts
Personally I would prefer one ship. Though if you take that set of npc's you made and throw them on the same ship it would be almost like an extra ship. Loot I'm cool with whatever we get, as long as there is enough to go around. And I'm with taize for the most part on number three. Romances are cool, forced ones are not. And I love a story with some good intrigue. Also I used to bea fan of one piece as well, ha ha.
"Ha ha, my friend your fruit juice will fight off scurvy for ya." Seems like an interesting bunch have found themselves in the this evening. Now if only we could get some entertainment going on in here, It would be just wunderbar
"cards huh, I will give it a go."
"Ah thank you, my fair lady. I have had quite the day so this rum should really hit the spot" Jensen downs the spiced rum quite quickly. I knew lady luck would have to throw me a bone at some point. Now lets see what fair lass are here in they bar. Jensen will mosey on over, with his new found liquid courage, to the table with Taize and kestryl. "You don't often see such rare beauties as yourself in the port everyday. Mind if I pull up a chair?"
"Bah, I'm moving I'm moving" Jensen gets up from his seat and walks through the void to this plane, and sits down in the same chair. Looking around he only sees one maybe two interesting people worth noting as of right now. so he will sit back and drink his double, and wait for his body to be a bit less sore. Maybe even a few cute lass's will grace his presence
Jensen walks into the maid just after the sun is at its highest in the day. Looking a bit rough around the edges, being as he just got done gettin the crude beat out of him down by the docks. I need me some strong ale, how was I supposed to know that the lass was the dock master's daughter. "Hey Barkeep, toss me a strong one... actually make it a double." He sits himself at the bar, setting his cutlass to his side. Wonder what else today will bring, hopefully lady luck will a bit more forgiving this eve.
ha ha I didn't mean to get the show on the road right now, just ready to play. What is this HW you speak of?
Ready to get this show on the road
Ok glad to hear it. Its a class I've always wanted to play but have never got the chance to, as I am usually the DM for my home group. And to answer your question from earlier I have not arguments against announcing the lucky(or unlucky) press gangees tonight.
ah the dm had a bad experience with magus, that does not bode well for me. Still excited to give it a go.
Will you be posting your choices as soon as today?
I updated my Background a little bit. Added a few things, I would also like to point out that I applied to the other game that kinda fizzled, though it was on a different character. It was an oracle, Gene Sancti. I decided i would rather play Jensen so that is why i am applying on him.
Tossing in my Half-elf magus, Jensen in. I would have to tweak numbers if I got chosen but I have a back story[mostly happy with it], appearance, personality, and crunch in the profile.
-> choosen, +2 to cha
since i rolled 9 twice, may i reroll it?:
if not ignore I would change his items around for the min gold, and have a mst. cutlass. I would spend the creation points on 2. 25 point buy and 3. a feat. my modified stat row would look like:: str 18 dex 12 con 14 int 16 wis 10 cha 10 extra feat would be combat casting everything else (except some skill modifiers) should be the same.
Yes I will admit I'm more than excited to get a chance at this ap. I have been stalking this thread and the competition is quite stiff.
in less than a day the competition is already quite fierce.
I would like to submit Jensen Roust. I built him for another S&S game, and got accepted as a "backup". But seeing as the four who were actually chosen seem to be legit I doubt I would have a chance at getting in there at this point. Jensen is a half-elf(water child) Magus. I have a brief background, personality, appearance, and the crunch in the profile. I have to make a few tweaks to gear and add a little more to the background but should be pretty put together already. Let me know any questions or concerns.
Just checkin in. I am following the posts so far and seems to be quite interesting and fun.
ah yes I forgot about that change, Balsooma, break many legs...
well best of luck to the A team, and Kelly break a leg... ha ha.
i agree with balsooma. Though I would argue starting it at -/+ 5 and upping it at a later point to -/+ 10. Just a thought, feel free to shoot it down.
The changes sound very solid for this type of setting, are the dc's and free leadership the only changes you are considering?
I will grab another brew at the bar and await my turn at the seas.
Thanks for the consideration, and good luck to those who made it.
Still here and waitin.
Jensen walks into the bar, a bit distraught. Having just gotten into a scuffle earlier in the day, it would be a perfect night for a drink, or seven. He looks around the room as he walks toward the bar, and notes the half-orc making some kind of ruckus. Jensen looks to the bartender and says "Bartender, toss me a brew. Its been a hell of a day." He looks over at the other half-elf that be singin, lets slide a grin and says, "What a great night for a party, next one's on me."
