Redbadge's Solo Skull and Shackles (IC)

"I came to over to help you with that arm son. I just got the hell knocked out of me and I'm gonna lay off the rum for tonight. You need to lay off it too, until that arm heals up. Now let's see how much I can help you out." Jhiv looks over Jack's arm and gives what aid he can.

Your magical healing and expert aid give Jack a chance. However, this chance is hindered by his recent uptake alcohol and the progression of the disease. During the 15 minutes you work on him, the poor self-destructive lad actually passes out, slumping against you. The bowl of soup slips out of his lap, and he drops his skin of rum out onto the hold floor. His arm shows no positive change.

[sblock=DC 10 Heal]By examining the arm, you can tell that one more failed Fortitude check means that Jack will either have to lose his arm... or his life. His deteriorated state doesn't leave much room for hope. Though the Stitchman called it, you can't help but think that the anti-plague used right during the diagnosis would have made the difference. Obviously though, this mans arm isn't worth the 50 gold it would have cost to save it.[/sblock]

Jhiv motions Queepod over and together they are able to get Jack up to a porthole and have him vomit most of the rum he drank out into the sea, then they take him to his bunk. Jhiv thanks Queepod and goes to have a word with Sandara, "That damned kid is doing everything he can to kill himself and I'm honestly not certain how much I care at this point. I can heal him and cast spells 'til I'm blue in the face, heh, but I think some anti-plague is his best bet at keeping the arm, since he tried to drown himself in rum tonight, but the stuff is expensive and the Stitchman has the only stash on board. What do you think?"

Sandara looks at you carefully, obviously weighing the matter heavily. "Well, Jhiv, do you remember the advice I gave you when we first met?"

After finishing his conversation with Sandara about how they can help Jack "Scrimshaw" with the spells they have available between them Jhiv attempts to improve the attitude of "Ratline" Rattsberger. After talking to Ratline Jhiv goes to bed for the evening.

OOC: Spells mentioned: Resistance, Lesser Restoration, Swallow Your Fear [in conjunction with Moment of Greatness], Bear's Endurance. I lobby that Remove Sickness, as written, should give Jack the +4 on the save as well as suppressing the effects. This would allow Sandara to use Moment of Greatness to double the Remove Sickness bonus, for a +13 from the Heal check, Remove Sickness, Moment of Greatness, and Resistance.

OOC: Take 10 on Diplomacy check, result 18.

"Ratline" Rattsberger is a jittery little fellow who likes to spend his time drinking and playing Hog Lob with Rosie, Conchobhar, and Giffer Tibbs up on deck until the time comes to lock the hold doors.

The group stands at the stern of the deck, lobbing lead ingots covered in a greased piglet skin, the "hog", towards the aft end of the ship. Tonight, Ratline is in a good mood, as he is winning, and is very affable towards you as you walk up. Over the course of the game, he comes to see you as someone who might be a very good friend. Rosie is there, and Ratline can see how good of friends you two already are. OOC: +2 to influence check.

[sblock=Ding!]Ratline Rattsberger is now helpful![/sblock][sblock=Reward]+50 XP[/sblock]

Jhiv gets up in the morning, prepares his spells, and gets out on deck before the bell.

Day 6 begins...

You walk on deck to find a dark and humid morning. Black and heavy clouds hang in the sky, foreshadowing the rains to come later in the day. The wind has picked up a bit, slowing the Wormwood as she sails into the coming storm, and causing the ship to rock about in the choppy waters as the sails flutter and snap distinctively. Fortunately, your turtle meal was not forgotten, and you are assigned the easiest of the storm preparation tasks.

[sblock=Rope Work]You handle the ship's ropes to prepare for the coming weather, including unstowing them, coiling them, and securing them to cleats and single and double bollards. You are working with Maheem today. Your Profession (sailor) check determines how long it takes to get all the rope set up: [/sblock]

Jhiv gets to work on the rope work so that he can get to the galley and help Fishguts. While looking up at the darkening sky he decides that if he has time today he will catch more fish while the weather holds.[sblock=Current Status]Jhiv Viratek (Male undine druid/rogue 2)

Moonday, 23 Desnus, 4712 AR (08:00:00)
Galley, The Wormwood, Unknown Waters, Off the Coast of Garund, Inner Sea Region, Golarion

You decide that you will have plenty of opportunity to fish today, since it won't start raining until later this evening. The storm doesn't like it will hit until tomorrow or the next day.

[sblock=Fishing]You can restock the fish stores using the ship's nets. How many day's worth of food you want to catch determines the bonus you get on your Survival check. If you use Profession (fisherman) instead of Survival, you gain an additional +5 bonus (trained only). Choose one:
1 Day's Worth of Fish: +10
2 Day's Worth of Fish: +5
3 Day's Worth of Fish: +0
4 Day's Worth of Fish: -5
5 Day's Worth of Fish: -10
Etc. ...
Your result determines how long the task will take: [/sblock]

Before fishing, however, you make your way down to the galley. You open the door to an empty kitchen, as Fishguts is nowhere to be seen, and none of his usual morning preparations have been accomplished. The skillets, soup pots, and other dishes used for dinner yesterday all lie piled around the kitchen, filthy.
