Burn Tokwith smacks his lips, regretful he brought no rum on their march. A good jot would be just the thing to revitalize his spirits after the long slog across the island. He searches the barrel and the crate in the hope their contents might slake his thirst.

As the scouting party returns and describes the local geography, Burn Tokwith sketches a map in the sand with a scrap of wood. "Perhaps there's something worth a penny or three at the old camp. Maybe we should investigate that, shipmates? Our fine pleasure boat is nearly ready for her maiden...

I present -- Isla Calabaza.

A boat? This thought hadn't occurred to Burn Tokwith. Perhaps that would offer a better chance of survival than a signal fire. Then they could set sail immediately for that treasure... Tokwith leaps to assist the Leperchaun. "Let's get to it! No time to waste. We can sleep when we're corpses in...

For Distinctive Flaws, I rolled "stupid," which I'm interpreting as, "Makes poor life decisions." Just like a lot of criminals, or so I've read in the newspapers.

Burn Tokwith Huffing and wheezing from rolling the barrel of water onto the beach, Tokwith peers over Leperchaun's shoulder peering over Safari's shoulder. "That's a treasure map if I've ever sees one. As soon as we're off this patch of wet sand we'll make for it. Now help me dump the water out...

Burn Tokwith With growing resentment, Tokwith finds nothing of value among the corpses. "Stupid! Stupid!" In frustration he kicks a body. He looks up to see his shipmate the Leper-chaun swimming in the surf, trying to gather the flotsam of the wreck. Tokwith notes the bobbing timbers, the...

Burn Tokwith Tokwith rolls over on the wet sand, spitting grains from his mouth. He sits up, takes in the situation. He stands and staggers in circles. Finally it hits him: he is shipwrecked. If there are dead corpses of his shipmates, he begins looting them. If anyone questions his actions...

Burn Tokwith Frantically Tokwith parries the blades of the undead fiends, beaten back by their relentless offensive. Unable to land a blow himself, he howls in pain as a cutlass slips through to gash his shoulder.

Burn Tokwith Consisting of little more than skin and bones himself, Burn nimbly dodges the swing of the second skeleton's weapon.

Sure. In Pirate Borg combat the player rolls both to attack and defend (in contrast to 5e, where the DM rolls for the enemies). Also instead of rolling against the enemy's AC, you roll against a standard Difficulty Rating (DR, the Borg equivalent of DC) of 12. So to make a Melee attack, roll...

Burn Tokwith The terror of the unfolding scene strikes like an ice pick to Burn's chest -- and yet some sliver of his larcenous heart wonders at the value of all that Ash... "Repel boarders!" he shouts. Precariously he scampers down the rigging and throws himself at the skeletons with the...

Burn Tokwith The blood drains from Tokwith's face at this horrible visitation appearing through the rain and sea foam. Could it be them? Had they found him? He immediately reverses his work lowering the sails, instead tries frantically to raise them again. "Ship to starboard!" he yells. "Make...

Burn Tokwith An ill wind, this. Tokwith knocks the tobacco out of the bowl, then stows his pipe in pocket before climbing into the rigging to aid in the furling of sails.

I like this, let's go with it. We're mutineers! Yes. You can deliberately generate a character using the Pirate Borg rules but honestly unless you have a specific character concept in mind, it's more fun to use the random generator Whizbang linked to in his original post. Keep in mind this is...

Looks like I randomly rolled the party thief. Presenting: Pedro "Burn" Tokwith.

I'm in the exact same boat. <-- See what I did there. I will post my PC Monday PM or Tuesday. Thanks Captain Dustyboots!
