TURN ONE: An Average Day at the Bar
Talk to bartender.
[2] You ask to speak with him, but he refuses, and politely asks you to leave his bar. Apparently the man dislikes Dwarfs with silly names.
Grab my swag and get to the ship quickly to get the best bunk I can, somewhere out of the way where I don't constantly get kicked by people coming and going and high enough to avoid any stray bodily fluids...
You grab your gear and head for the ship. [5] You get there much earlier than the others without trouble. You set up at one of the best bunks on the top decks, in a calm and quiet corner.
Inch up to the Goblin/Human discussion and listen patiently.
[6][1] You get up close without either of them seeing you. You think you must be some kind of prodigy at sneaking. (New Skill: Novice Ambusher) However, when you approach, you discover with disgust that they are discussing a gay orgy they had attended the other night. You quickly flee.
Go to the dwarves and see if they're willing to play a gambling game of some sort.
[1] You attempt to communicate with the dwarfs, only to discover they had drunken themselves into a mad stupor, and draw their weapons, turning to attack you! [5][5][5][4] All four rise from their chairs and draw axes, save one, who fumbles with the hilt. You have entered combat!
Go to the dwarves and see if they're willing to play a gambling game of some sort.
[5] You decide that it'd be best not to communicate with these mad beasts.
Check inventory for a Pistol maintenance kit. then head up on the ship and secure a top bunk.
[4] You find the kit eventually, but realize you have no need for it, and head for the ship. You don't quite make it in time to get the best bunks, probably because of the time spent looking for that kit. The spot is still good enough, however.
Characters:From the Mountainhomes of The Crescent of Dawning, Urist has enjoyed a priveliged life, but always wanted to go on an adventure. So, he decided to learn about being on a boat. He was offered a job, and accepted, not realizing who exactly his employer was.
Has taken as a child by Kobolds and traded to humans, who forced into slavery on a privateer. He has no idea of his Dwarf name but uses Silverlash (a name from an older dwarf that tuaght him English [or whatever we speak on this world]) now that he is free. Is very fierce and is almost too human-like to be around dwarfs.
A cook who has traveled the world searching for new exotic dishes and spices. He keeps a chest full of the rarest and most exquisite spices he finds on his journeys, and intends to one day make, as he calls it, "my Feast," the culmination of all his skill and knowledge, with the use of all his precious spice possessions.
She was sold into slavery to pay off her gambling debts, but the ship she was being taken to her buyer on was destroyed by pirates. After being washed ashore she realised that there was nothing left of her old life and she was better off letting the world think that she was dead. With no place in civilised society she has signed up with a pirate crew and never looked back.
She doesn't gamble any more but has a habit of leaving playing cards that explode.
Dabbling Mechanic; Novice Ambusher
Exiled by his own race for being a little nuts, he has taken to become pirate. Has an unhealthy obsession with machinery and technology of all sorts. His ability to actually use two pistols at the same time effectively makes him a valueable asset in each team, as one glance at him tends to make the opponents wish they would have brought their brown pants.
Enemies:4 Axe-wielding Dwarves; Location: Tavern
Enviornment:Locations:Somewhere in the port town.
A small, dimly-lit tavern with little more than a few tables, the bar proper, and a table for playing cards. There are stairs, which presumably lead to the second floor and the bedrooms.
