Etienne go to his warehouse, left there most of his most precious wares and packaged some goods for the Indian family. Some fur, some alcohol and his pine draughtproofing resin and pitch. And the dreaded white skin. He then puts his canoe in the water and paddles on cruise speed to forbid over...

Well, 100 gp is high for a 4th level character. I want to make it a quest by itself :)

"I know how to deal with people and animals like old Odysseus. Thanks you for the directions, old chap!" Then he handles him a small Indian necklace for his help (worthing a few silver pieces).

I'm waiting for Nia's response to my conversation. And for the sailor's directions. A seasoned voyageur like Etienne with 18 in St and Co may paddle hours at a cruise speed over 12 knots. More in risk of exhaustion. No fortune. But my share should be higher, since this is a risky expedition...

QL said the sailor took a repast. I guess i'm not far away in the tavern with the sailor. Etienne's tone is low but maybe you can hear him.

"Give me direction by sea! I brought my fast Rabaska 10 passengers canoe on by boat. Natives always lack essential. Do you know if they are fond of some European food or drinks ? Something forbidden to them ?" (to himself) Hmmm... Their Cacique may like to get nice furs in his hut. They always...

Etienne mentally scans his options: "Such a pearl should costs over 100 livres if I buy it in town... there is pearl diving in the Caribbean, maybe I can find a diver who likes luxury furs. Otherwise, I can try to sell the fur on the market but it is illegal since i'm from Nouvelle France. I'll...

I think that we all want to be part of the crew, otherwise well will not play this game session :) Referring to wikipedia, the first mate watch to the crew and cargo (discipline) and the quartermaster is doing intendance.

Etienne served as a first mate then provisional commissioned lieutenant in the French Navy but for the last 15 years is navigating on canoes, not ships. He has intimidate skill and healing powers. As a jack of all trades, he can fit any spot thus.

Etienne understands this skin he despites got him trouble... again. He is still too impulsive when it comes to curses and mysteries. He scared the group. Magical-enhanced charm may be not enough to win the day. But he NEEDS to fill his purse and sell the wares. (for himself) "Du Tourbillon...

Quartermaster is fine. And I can heal with rest song and spells as a bard. Etienne wants to get rid of the skin. He knows Zef as a conjurer and this is why he looked at him. Nia may be also the one. He has to sell his wares otherwise he will not survive with only a few pennies...

"So my intuition was good. There is a curse. Tell me more ? If it is also linked to a treasure, I'm in."

Etienne returned to a softer mood. " I'm sorry for my behavior. I'm in contact with this item for months but I still feel uncomfortable. I don't know... the Shaman's told of it as a curse-breaker; or otherwise it was real sensations through the journey, but the item is... special. I got...

Etienne's face turns almost paler than the pelt. How much he despites this weird magic! "This one is the magical one I was talking about. The price is not relevant. The shaman told me it should fit someone in great need, here where-the-waves-are-blue. Please tell me why you want it. If...

"This is a ware of power. A mysterious Shaman from the Illinois tribe told me it protects against dark spirits. He insists giving it as a token of gratitute since I spared his son humiliation in a wrestling duel, giving him might and skill and allowing him to win. Forgive me, is it something of...

This is what I referred to. The best reason to get the pelt is to had someone from the group ordered it. Here I am. I know Zef as a fellow merchant. Unless i'm wrong. I said my memory is bad... Maybe I brought it to Zef because I know he likes weirdness; maybe he ordered it specifically. Left...

Etienne relaxes quite a lot and returns to a merchant mood: "The magic is less in fur than in the fair one who wears it." And more seriously: "I"m afraid my purse is too flat to buy such wares now. Magic items cost a lot. I have imported some for senor Zef. I heard he needs it to remove a...

Etienne remarked the senora wariness. In a pirate den, it should be normal... This Zef may be a bandit or owe her money... "I don't have any grudge with him, nor he is a friend. Just another client. I'm just delivering him a mystic item from the dark continental forest. A djab issue. Is he a...

During a few minutes, Etienne shows his ware to impress the patrons. He got felt hats and scarfs, Indian necklaces and semi-precious jewels, fur stoles and vests. He hope his performance will impress the financier and the potential clients. He then turns to Du Tourbillon. He says, softly, "I...

Then It may be fine.
