Alright, I'll NPC Annie and make her part of the background, like the rest of the ship's crew.

OK, time to recruit. Sing out of you want any particular roles or classes filled.

Healer would probably be a good idea.

I've played with Sunny before, always fun

Loot list: Anybody want to claim anything? As stated before, Bryson has no need for any of it except as gifts for Annie.

Bryson: Since there is no time pressure, yes you can.

Diving on the wreck of the Galleon, you are first attracted to the sumptuous captain's cabin, where a skeletonized body yields a:
*Masterwork Greatsword, still in its case it only has a light tarnishing that can be polished right up.
*Elven Chainmail +1, still untarnished after all this time.
Also present is a pay chest. When broken open it yields:
30% (30gp) gold sovereigns: 3
45% (45gp) crowns: 45
20% (20gp) silver pennies: 200
5% (5gp) copper farthings: 500
Also present are stacks of paper notes of some kind, but they have been reduced to mush by water intrusion.

In one of the deluxe staterooms you find:
• Entertainer's outfit 3 gp [133.33%, Fine Quality]
• Sai 1 gp [Standard Quality]
• Nunchaku 2 gp [Standard Quality]
• Sealing wax 1 gp [Standard Quality]
• Mirror, small steel 10 gp [Standard Quality]
and a small jewel case; inside are:
Rose quartz 35gp,
Jasper 16gp,
Turquoise 4gp,
Bloodstone 34gp,
Obsidian 6gp,
Freshwater (irregular) pearl 3gp,
Hematite 2gp

In one of the officers cabins you find:
• Banded mail Armor 250 gp [151.6%, Very Fine Quality]
• Flail 8 gp [125%, Fine Quality]
• Light crossbow, repeating [broken condition]
• Masterwork Bolts, repeating crossbow(5)

In the hold you find an Alchemists Lab, which also has inside:
• Potion of Enlarge person {1st/1st}
• Potion of Remove fear {1st/1st}
• Potion of Remove fear {1st/1st}

Also in the hold you find a scroll tube, still sealed. Inside are:
• Arcane Scroll, Dancing lights {0/1st}
• Arcane Scroll, Minor image {2nd/3rd}, and Secure shelter {4th/7th}

And almost missed was a scrap of fabric hanging from a yardarm. It looks almost like a flag, but it radiates enchantment.

Ghirrak could make use of :

Sai 1 gp [Standard Quality]
Nunchaku 2 gp [Standard Quality]
Potion of Enlarge person {1st/1st}

*Waves*

(^_^)

Seen tha' DM's message about postin'.

Am only able ta' put somat small up at moment.

Will have more time on a few more hours.

The full work up of Sunny is actually on the bottom of the page. Will pull relevant information 'up' into the prettier build soon as I can.

*Waves some more* (^_^)


Does everybody have their build Level 6 and their equipment all paid for?

Sovereign Court

Reporting in, but at work. When I get home (around 6 PM EST) I will post avatar with full info. My character is completed and in Hero Lab. As for that loot list above, the +1 elven chain is nice :)

I will spend some off time at work reading the gameplay toget afeel for how things have gone.

Grand Lodge

All you need know is that Bryson is the awesomest, Ghirrak is the tough guy with heart of gold, and no one really likes Phillip, but we put up with him because they won't let me leave him stranded. Oh! And keep away from Annie. Far away.


Island Elf(link) HP 20;56;Fort+6;Ref+11;Will+4;Perc+9; Init+4;AC17(19)Defensive:21

Also at work.

The build should be good on bottom of page. Am thinking about the spending of more shine. (^_^)


Male Human Wizard 8

Hello all.

Still working on the character, gear in particular. Should have the sheet roughly done by the end of the day.

Here he is fully done


Fighter2/Witch5 Eldritch Knight1~ AC17 tch14 ff14 ~ HP 48/60 ~ Fort+7 Ref+5 Will+5 ~ CMD20 ~ Init+3, Per+2

Hello! I need to go over my math one more time, and I want to make sure I have a definite handle on my mechanics. I will be ready by the end of the day as well.


Male Half-orc Monk (Iron Mountain) 8 |HP: 60/61 | AC:26 Current 29, T 19, FF 21 | Fort: +9 Ref:+10 Will:+12 (+14 Enchantment) |CMB +12 (+16 grapple), CMD 25 (27) | Init+3 | Perc +13 | Ki Pool 9/9

Ok, reading through the characters I am incredibly amused by the fact that Sunny is Gergarious, Hedonistic and Delicious.

Just a question fer tha' DM:

So.. there be a spell Neried's Grace

Is a first level spell. If'n I were ta' want it put in'a 'Wondrous item' that'd take a caster level 3.

So, usin' tha' "Make a magic item" calculator, I get a price of 600 Gp.

Spell level (1st) X Caster Level (3rd) X 200 = 6000 Gp

No... if'n I add tha' cost fer tha' 'Permanency'.... Would that be more shine ta' tha' cost?

If'n so I think I end up with tha' price bein' about 70 000 Gp... :/

O'course, if'n ye be thinkin' tha' spell be oodles more powerful than payin' just 6 000 fer, then I completely inderstand an' all.

Lookin' forwards ta' DM reply. (^_^)

Best wishes ta' every one!


Island Elf(link) HP 20;56;Fort+6;Ref+11;Will+4;Perc+9; Init+4;AC17(19)Defensive:21

Okeys! Tha' stuff on'a page be ready.

Jus' got'a wait fer tha' Dm's reply as ta' me idea fer a magic item.

If'n they be sayin' nope, then I got'a be spendin' more shine on other stuffs.

(^_^)

Wishin' every one all'a very bestest!


Sunny:

Your proposed magic item, Neried's Grace, looks alright as far as I can tell. $70,000 gp seems right, and I'll peg the minimum caster level to cast the Permanency on it at 10th level.
I reserve the right to nail it with Disjunction if it unbalances the game.

Hope that helps!


As for the new peoples entry into the game, I'm thinking of having them be shipwrecked, being captured by a warlike tribe of Olmen, they escape and take a canoe downriver while being pursued by angry tribesmen, they arrive at the top of the falls and see a square rigged ship in the pool below.
Any questions or objections?


Island Elf(link) HP 20;56;Fort+6;Ref+11;Will+4;Perc+9; Init+4;AC17(19)Defensive:21

Reply to DM's reply:
Ah! Okeys....

Can't afford tha' 70K at tha' moment. :(

Will save up me shine fer it some times later.

Will finish spendin' shine on other stuffs. (^_^)

Lookin' forwards ta' meetin' every bodies!

Is Suny gon'a notice tha' ship anchored on'a shore an' come swimmin' ta' investigate?

Wishin' every one all'a very bestest! (^_^)

EDIT: No, all sounds gooder here! Suny be happy enough ta' go fer a dive.


Fighter2/Witch5 Eldritch Knight1~ AC17 tch14 ff14 ~ HP 48/60 ~ Fort+7 Ref+5 Will+5 ~ CMD20 ~ Init+3, Per+2

No questions. Sounds good, and ready to go.

good here, but what about equipment? We escaped our bonds at night, stole into the area where they kept our stuff, geared up and then got chased..... sound good? :)

Sounds like a plan!

I in't got much in'a way of seemin' stuffs. Jus' a back pack an' a quiver. (^_~)

O'course, I has tha' shine fer a small bag of holdin' I has tucked away an' hidden' inside me back pack an' tha' quiver holds oodles of stuffs! (^_^)

Should we be postin' in'a game thread yet?


Now you guys can post.

Posteded. XD


Male Human Wizard 8

I think that's the sheet organised. Last step is hit dice:
5d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 1, 4, 2) = 15


Marius, remember the HP generation convention:
Roll vs average+1, take whatever is higher. Since your hit die is d6, your minimum is 4. So that 3, 1 and 2 you rolled would all turn to 4's.


To the new guys:

I certainly don't mean to reduce you to hired hands; the idea is that if you can scrape together a thousand gp or so you can buy in as a ships partner, the way Bryson, Ghirrak, Annie (npc) and Spinnaker Jon are.
Since you will, completely coincidentally be in any adventuring shore parties or boarding actions, you should be able to get that together no problem.


Island Elf(link) HP 20;56;Fort+6;Ref+11;Will+4;Perc+9; Init+4;AC17(19)Defensive:21

*Salutes tha' DM* (^_^)

Aye, aye Sir!...Unless ye is a Madam... (>_>)

Very much cheers ta' all!


Male Human Wizard 8

I for one still have a thousand gold left over from character creation, so no problems there.

As party wizard, I should probably be laying claim to any spellbooks and arcane scrolls not already in my own spellbook. So that's the minor image and secure shelter scrolls from the shipwreck.

It doesn't look as if I can directly share known spells with anyone, but I could scribe scrolls for Burian to learn if there's anything compelling in my own spellbook.

BTW how are we doing the departed characters (IE Annie)? Will they fade into the background or be played as major npc's?

How quickly are we going to accept the new pc's? Are we going to metagame our trust for them or will we do it through role play?

Rilly?

*Skips over and attempts to hug Bryson*

I can be rilly trustin' an' helpin' ye with any issues. (^_^)

Grand Lodge

Not true. Bryson is very trusting. He's just very protective of his relationship.


Annie will NPC fade into the background with the rest of the crew. She will advance, but only with them (about one third of the PC's); unless her player returns. As for the personal relationship between her and Bryson, well I would need his input on what should happen there.

Dgrim was eaten by a Kraken, so there's no body. He can return if his player can come up with a reason he survived.

Bindlplotz got blowed up real good experimenting with alchemical gunpowder, so there's no body there either. He could possibly return, but after three years it's unlikely.

Since the crew are all level 2 and the new guys are all level 6, they are going to stand out as exceptional crewmates and combatants.
My plan is that after distinguishing themselves in a battle/emergency situation, they will find themselves with some cash, the ship will need some repairs, and Spinnaker Jo will recommend they buy in as Ships Partners/Owners like Ghirrak, Bryson, Annie and Jon are.

What do you think? Sounds like a plan?


Island Elf(link) HP 20;56;Fort+6;Ref+11;Will+4;Perc+9; Init+4;AC17(19)Defensive:21

Aye, aye Capt'n DM Sir! (^_^)

Sounds good. Ghirrak will be more quiet during downtime and violent in combat until he knows Lavinia is ok. If she isn't.... it won't be pretty.

Grand Lodge

So Annie will decide to take a less active role. One more akin to Spinnaker Jon? That would be fine with Bryson. He will love his Annie always.

Sorry I am fer an confuzzlments but can I be askin', as an aside, as ta' whom or whut Master Bryson looks like?

I mean, rilly, if'n his avatar be a right an' proper image an' he looks all cute an' fuzzy... I fear there might be some huggin' and snugglin' ta' be goin' on. (>_>)

Much cheers an' wishin' every one all'a very bestest! (^_^)

This is his description:

Bryson is a dark skinned half elf with long black hair. He is at home in the wilderness, but totally out of his element in a city. While he is quiet and polite, Bryson is not fully competent with the social niceties. He has a birthmark that looks like a horned serpent over his heart.
6’; 160 lbs; 35 years old

Bryson thinks that Avner is his good friend and is a little in awe of him. He tries to mimic Avner's speech and mannerism. Even though he is obviously uncomfortable in them, Bryson tries to dress like Avner or in clothes that Avner has him wear.

Sorry... I've been pretty busy.

Plan sounds good DM.

Marius - Thanks. I'd rather not get for free what you paid for, but if learning a particular spell or few would help the group... I will take you up on that.

Grand Lodge

After reading Jon's recount of our adventures, I read a few pages from the beginning of this chapter. It was really fun remembering some of that stuff. This trip has really changed Bryson. He may need to slide back into some of his old ways soon.


Yeah, to write that I skimmed the earlier pages, lots of fond memories there.
Kinda wish Bindlplotz were still here; nothing like the tension of not knowing whether it's the enemy, or your ally will blow up real good due to a firearm fumble...;)
