Serious, you should name your character Epiktetos instead.  'twould be fitting.

Speaking of name changes, edited character name and included armor in the inventory section.

True. I was originally going to make a guy who was a higher-up in silver armor but then I was like... "Oh yeah. Odysseus." And just changed the character completely without changing the name. ^^; Probably better this way though, if I'd thought about it I probably would've named him something that had some form of Kratos in it, like Pancratius or Philokrates.

Look for some iron an anvil, and some coke.

Don't ask why there'd be highly flammable coal on a ship... just go with it.

Keep watch from the prow of the ship.  Help us into port if need be.

By the way, just a reminder:

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

Argyris stayed standing outside the door to his master's cabin, arms crossed, completely immobile. If anyone wanted to see the general, they would have to get past him first.

Odysseus felt...a strange sensation of Deja Vu. As if he been here...done this...all before. He shook it off.
There was work to be done....

Keep a lookout for sea going monsters!

(4)You head to the prow of the Atlantithica and stand in front of the ram. The sea ahead (4) is clear and void of rocks. (1) However, a strong Gust of wind hits you, sending you out into the sea in front of you.(4) You manage to grab onto the ram and (4) climb up onto it.

(1) You climb into the look-out tower and look west. A pack of Giant carp swim out to the east. "No monsters here". They submerge as you look east. A  scylla appears behind you to the west.  "Nothing here." You climb down and get with the rest of the group as a Sea Serpent swims away from behind the boat.

(1)You find a highly inflammable piece of sponge filled with water. Don't ask why there's a wet sponge in a trireme. Just roll with it.

(3) You stand in the way of the door, not letting anyone in or out. You do get pushed to the side when a hoplite go's in to wake your master.

(6)"Sir, what is our orders?" You ask the Commander.
"Wait until we hit port." He replies.
"But-"
"No buts! If you want, you could fish if you like. There's a pole near the prow."

(6) You call over a seagull, luring him into your grasp with your spare bread. The seagull instantly loves you, and spins in circles around the ship. (2) However, a Toxote, who has clearly been drinking too much wine, see's the seagull.
"Ahh! A Harpy!" He exclaims. He pull,s out his bow, and shoot the seagull. (2) in pirces the seagull, and falls toward the sea.
"NOOOOOOOOO!!!"



GAME EVENTS: The Atlantithica will hit port in 3 turns.....if nothing happans along the way.

Oh, no. 1 turn in and being associated with Odysseus has already doomed us all. :3

Argyris, upon being told that he was not needed and to go do something else, made his way to the deck. He wasn't really sure what to do with himself, since he hadn't received and specific orders, and instead stood by the mast. We will hit port soon... and then, combat. He wasn't particularly thrilled or depressed by the concept. Fighting was what he did. He was, however, curious as to how different a real war would be for gladiatorial combat. True, he had usually fought one on one, but the massive melees, the re-enactment of naval battles, combat with save beasts from foreign lands like tigers... Yes, his curiosity was most certainly piqued.
