Lets start practical with our pirate lair. We need an uninhabited island, with a nice harbor with a large sea cave, so we can stash our boat. We can turn our prisoners into miners, and have them go around building our quarters and vault.

Then we'll kill them.
Um.
I still think the most practical start is to capture and co-opt some settlement of some monsterous race nobody would care to protect. Hobgoblins, Bugbears, Gnolls, Orcs, ect. That way we wont have to build as much. I'm sure we will be able to perform a few raids and rack up a good deal of money before anybody cares enough to come after us on our own turf, so hidden would be nice but not essential.
How would we control them when we were out?
I'm putting my WIP flock here:Expert. Rolled, best four out of 5d6, REALLY well for stats, so he's our numbers man.
Fighter 1.
Fighter 2.
Fighter 3.
Should I take a cleric too for utility?
Or a diviner. We have a Numbers Man, we could use a Contessa.
...One of us needs to find some spell, class ability, or something that lets us be Cauldron. Tell me that wouldn't be awesome.
I'm going to say no, because that way you have to do a bit more tactical construction.
That's a silly reason.
Oh, and I started playing with the timestamp. What fun.
I am the Way, the Test, and the Life.
Dammit.
It's all been claimed by one of the two empires. They let Wavebreak be though, because it isn't good practice to desecrate mystic temples, especially one's who have lots of connections, and Rickshaw is the favorite hangout spot of most explorers, pirates, privateers, adventurers, and such, so it's crazy hard to actually assault directly. Also, any more monstrous populations still standing haven't been worth subjugating yet (and are far away enough from the Sil-Merrion).
No private/noble/etc ownership of small islands, etc?
CAN I HAVE A WYRMLING FOR A THRALL?
...
Better not be metallic.
And there's no point recruiting from the standard "Civilised/good" races, besides, that's just boring, I mean, we got a whole variety of different creatures and you want humans?

Anyway, anyone on team evil, please restate your ship fund contributions, I'll put it in a text file and PM Remuthra the link so he can edit it into the OP so we don't keep scrabling around to find all that money.
I still need to figure out what I'm buying for myself...
