Island Empire, Part III, The Lich's Curse

[mleibrock]

Radoon

"Captain Marin, there is one other matter that I would like to discuss with you, given your experience and wisdom in the ways of shipping. We have just come into possession of a vessel called the CrestDancer, and it seems to be a very fine ship, indeed. I was wondering if you could perhaps make some inquiries with the maritime authorities and do whatever is necessary for us to stake our claim for salvage rights to this vessel? Geoffrey and Radoon have their own ships already, well, Radoon's ship is actually yours, but I was wondering if Mingo, H'Roosh, Finn, and myself could file our claim to the CrestDancer together, as co-owners/admirals superior to the resident Captain, Mr. Swabby."

OCC - Leif, just to be clear, I would also like to be included on the salvage rights, as you know, I have no ship of my own either - Todd's character is the only one with one.

Finn Hunter

Finn smiles at the gnome's exuberance. "I don't need to be owning a ship, Gnurl, although I wouldn't be adverse to working for you on the ship. Sailing master is such a grand sounding title. I'll even cut you a deal on salary, as Captain Marin's generosity has made me flush in the pocket for quite a foreseeable time. Indeed, captain, your generosity is much more than I feel is my true due. I spent most of the last few days a prisoner of the creatures that had captured your son."

DM[sblock]Scott, anything different come up when I used touchsight? Also, when I escorted Anorra back to Salty Bill's, I would have asked her for any additional information she might have had concerning the aftermath of the Masque. Had she seen Bill since the night before? Did I see Bill in the enclave, perhaps already converted to a zombie since he had outlived his usefulness by that point I'm sure. Any extra little tidbits I might have picked up along the way not mentioned in the log of the fight? [/sblock]

Mingo Frasse & Anson & Mig

OOC: In fact, Gnurl wants to make an entry in the CrestDancer's log to the effect that Owners Gnurl Whiskerling, H'Roosh, and Finn were taken onboard and assigned quarters. No offense to Mingo, but she was pretty involved with Geoffrey, so I think she may want to stay about the Radiant Sun.

OOC: Interesting idea, since Mingo and Anson were the first in the party to be given quarters aboard the CrestDancer. What makes you think that Mingo has any involvement with Geoffrey? Mingo arrived at the 'Rest aboard a passenger ship.

 

[Leif]

Gnurl Whiskerling

OOC: Ok, Gnurl stands corrected. The CrestDancer's log will mention Radoon and Mingo as co-owners as well, and Finn will be omitted, as per his choice.

May I assume that I am able to learn the properties of the Runestaff of the Undead Slayer with my identify spells?

Skill checks, just in case:
Knowledge-Arcana (d20+17): 29

H'Roosh

From the cast off son of pirates to ship owner and partner - what would my master think of me now, I wonder?

"Well, my life certainly has become interesting since I met you all - in fact, the last two or three days have flown by such that it seems I've known you for years! I thank you for accepting me so readily, and will happily continue our adventures together aboard the CrestDancer!"

 

[Leif]

Gnurl Whiskerling

"And thank you, H'Roosh, for accepting a wee wizard Gnome whose prodigious Gnomish Gnose is only exceeded by the size of his mouth!"

Radoon

OOC - Did Marianne return to The Radiant Sun when Finn Did?

To the group, "So Geoffry, when would you propose we set sail? Is there anything I can do to help you prepare? Also, if Marin wouldn't mind parting with a few of the crew, I am sure we could increase our numbers."

"It should take us at least a week to escourt the bedsheet back to Cambry along with Captain Marin's property,,,then we could leave after reprovisiong and equipping and seek out the lich's lair.....as for actually leaving unless there is pressing business..we could sail on the morning tide" Geoffrey responds

Gnurl Whiskerling

OOC: That will give me enough time to do my little experimentation/study of the runestaff, won't it? (See post 84.)

You may indeed. Note that there is errata for the Magic Item Compendium and that a different selection of spells is provided than then ones in the book.
