Depends, do they cast at all?

Wait.  I can understand your dismay at wizards and clerics (even if I fervently disagree), but do you hate any casters at all?

Hmm... Remuthra, any ruling on building a stronghold at all? Also, I'd prefer that we sell any captured ships initially. Crew and supplies will cost a LOT, and only getting worse with the more crew we have to support. Mind you, our initial ship is VERY good considering the options we have for it. If we can, we should try and get it as a masterwork and plate it in mithral, so not only does it go about 5-15 ft per round faster, it's a lot tougher to cripple. Masterwork is the only thing we need at creation though, since we can plate it afterwards (And that plating would be horrendously expensive).

Also, team Dishonourable lacks any casters (That can be blasty at any rate.), so any boat we want to scuttle has to be done the hard way. Not that I mind if all the casters will be damned wizards >.>

Good point on selling the ships.

I'd rather a healer, or somebody with fun Necromancy spells to make use of the corpses we are likely to collect on our adventures.

Couldn't an evil cleric do both?

Alright, so I've lost track of the thread (27 pages lol) but is everyone else on an evil crew now?

I don't believe so?

Also, just a heads-up, necromancy is probably not going to be all that popular on the neutral ship.
Not because we disapprove of necromancy itself, mind, but because the crew is likely to be mostly Kobolds, and they need food.
Actually, skeleton necromancy is fine. We'll even clean them for you first!

The idea seems to be that since there's two people who want to play Dread Pirate, each of them is going to build a crew, one full of bad guys and one full of good guys.

Yeah, well hows it shaking out? I don't exactly want to do a one player game, being one of the few CG characters.

I could make myself EBIL, I suppose.

If necessary I can actually build a character, but it'd be more for amusement of playing rather than actually roleplaying.  It would definitely be a Barb/Sorcerer with Energy Substitution taken 4 times and grabbing Body of the Sun and just running around with quadcopy of that spell.  Because ~20d4 per round as a Barbarian sounds funny.

Actually, would need some CL increasers.  Thank god for Rage Mage.  Barb 2/Sorcerer 4, L1 Feat Combat Casting, L3 Feat Empower Spell, L6 Feat Energy Substitution (Cold)?

I know I'm a little late to the party but: Lorahana, the half-elf who is TOTALLY not a Doppelganger named Nigma, Rogue 1, Assassin 5, with a slight case of multiple personality disorder.

Pirates don't sell ships, silly. Well, not good ships anyway. We give them to one of our officer mook guys, then have him crew it and pirate with it; flying our flag above his own and giving us say... 10-20% of the loot. That's how an armada begins ;D

Bugger. Never used Myth-Weaver before. Should be fixed.

Two people approach both ships: One is a CG Half-elf woman, boasting of powerful spellcasting ability and a great time while drunk. The other is a quiet dwarf who claims to be able ensure that any man or woman he is ordered to kill will not see the sunrise. They are both taking offers, and tell you both that they are exploring other options, so if they were interested, they should act fast.

Time to go plan my new intelligent weapon, on the off chance Remuthra is cool with it.

You can't have ranks in a class skill higher than your level + 3. You need a minimum of five levels to get the 8th skill ranks in Hide and Move Silently.
