[5e] Spell & Crossbones

[Quickleaf]

[MENTION=4936]Shayuri[/MENTION] had settled on Sailing Master for Nia, which is a good fit being a Sea Witch and all.

[MENTION=6787234]peterka99[/MENTION], with Etienne being a fur trader at heart, makes a good fit for Quartermaster, while his boating experience could make him a suitable First Mate.

Just my two shillings.

EDIT: Which means new characters who will have high value to the party will be able to perform as Master Gunners, Surgeons, Cooks, or various Crew (e.g. lookouts, riggers) in particular.

So...

Captain: Katerina
Quartermaster OR First Mate: Etienne
Sailing Master: Nia Steeleyes
Boatswain AND Carpenter: Old Zef
Surgeon: ?
Master Gunner: ?
Cook: ?
Crew/other: ?

Figured I would double check what they'd prefer. Kat is qualified to do Sailing Master if Nia wanted something else, though I'm sure she doesn't want more responsibility lol. Lots of good, meaty roles left!

Etienne can be quartermaster, first mate, surgeon, marines officer, whatever you want, from the moment he can sell his wares first to clear his obligations with his trading company!

I'm interested in applying. Any thoughts on the use of UA materials (especially the Waterborne Adventuring stuff) or similar sources (Elemental Evil companion, etc.)?

Perhaps an ex-zombi half-orc (fighter? ranger? barbarian?) or a cultured surgeon with a dark secret...

Quickleaf created a custom archetype associated to several classes called swashbuckler.

Thanks for your interest. Yeah, I'm very laid back about using homebrew stuff or UA stuff. I mean, obviously I'll need to vet the stuff (part of the GM's job description), but usually I say "yes."

Both concepts have potential.

There's a lot of supplementary material to this game... so I recommend either joining our ENWorld Group (where they're nicely organized) or downloading my Spell & Crossbones Player's Guide pdf: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0Z7ZsrO9VLBSHRjSWxOUmZjODA/view?usp=sharing

Should make it easier on new players to have everything in one place!

(Safehouse) QL, I read the scene months ago when I joined the group.

I'm going through the setting pdf now and making some notes for possible concepts. I'm also likely to borrow some ideas from my library of 7th Sea books.

 

[peterka99]

I own these 7th sea books as well!

Still chewing on the stuff here. For questions, should I post them here or would a PM be more appropriate?
