"How can I help, Captain?" Phoenix asks. "Should I man an oar also, or is there someplace better suited for me?" she tries to be quick and not take up much of the Captains' time.

Quietly unslinging his bow, he pulls an arrow from his quiver and sights it on the figure. Stepping from the shadows he boldly challenges the figure. "Hold there and show yourself."

The captain looks distant a moment then recovers. Ahh yes, manning an oar would be most helpful though if they catch us I will send someone for you cause we will need you on deck.

The stooped man hesitates a moment then stands and turns facing Lookspring. Looks like we got a thief here that jumped these two, need to report this to the Cap'n.Looking at Lookspring with an accusing visageOr maybe our thief has returned.

"Those two jumped my friend and I. They're alive for now, at least until the Captain gets a hold of them. The problem is that one of them ran for it. Considering you're the only one sneaking around down here while everyone else is up on deck is suspicious. You're going to come with me to the Captain. He'll know if you're friends with these two or not."

"Will do, Captain." Phoenix says as she goes to help at the oars.BigB said:

I did not see anyone running only two crewmates tied up and you pointin youre bow around and threatenin. YOU WILL ACOMPANY ME TO THE CAPN TO FACE SHIPS LAW!!!
Arguing the entire way the sailor and Lookspring charge off to find the captain. When they do voices raised they compete to tell their story but the captain hardly listens preoccupied with the ship trailing them He turns upon them, red faced and angry at this interruption...Get them healed and the 4 of you grab an oar an start rowin or it wont matter a wit cause well be fish food! This will be settled in Orussus. He then turns his attention back to ordering the crew around.
Thanks we can use the extra arms.Phoenix8008 said:
After a full day of runnin the trailing ship seems to fall behind a bit and then lose interest in the chase. 2 more weeks at sea go by uneventful, the sailors seem to avoid Phoenix and Lookspring as much as they can aboard the ship. Then land is sighted and soon after the ship is anchoring in the port of Orussus. Before anyone departs the Captain informs Phoenix and Lookspring to be available as he will take the matter of the attack on them to the Orussus courts. Until then they can attend their business in Orussus but not leave the city.
ooc:take care of what you need I will be updating experience monday if not earlier. Any items you want to barter, have appraised etc... let me know if you are going to someone else, such as DiSenzios shop, and I can give the details to that person or roleplay the encounter myself.
A little from each chest so not to be noticeable and some minor signs of tampering.

OOC: So that's -1,000 GP for each of us? That reduces the 4,500 paid from the villagers down to 3,500 each, right? I'm looking to see if there were any other items that we would have to sell besides the gold chunks...and maybe the pearls. Any chance we could get an updated list of everything, just so we know for sure what we've got to deal with treasure-wise?
For instance, this is what I had written in my character's adventure history on Phoenix's character sheet: "[Gained 4,599 XP so far, spent 126 GP before leaving, and earned 457 GP profit (252 from personal trade on my 126GP worth brought, 5 GP on items sold by Verrick who dropped out, and a bonus of 200 GP from the captain and crew due to their high profit on the venture), got paid 4,500 GP from the villagers for help as well as in exchange for dwarven armor and weapons recovered from underground lair. Lost 1,000 GP worth due to thieving sailors on the trip back to Orussus.]"
I know that doesn't include the gold we found, so was there anything else besides that that I've missed?

OOC: Well then, I'm sure Phoenix and Lookspring hire some porters from the docks to unload their chests and get them on some wagon or something to transport back to the RDI where they can stash stuff more safely. After that, they would meet to take the pearls and gold somewhere for appraisal/sale. I don't know if there is a specialist for that kind of stuff or what. I think DiSienzio's deals mostly in magic items. I don't know if his bonus would apply to gold/pearls as far as gettting more for it there. We can go anywhere to appraise/sell them I guess. Unless Lookspring has a different idea. I'm okay with anything.
