[QUOTE="Naoki00_, post: 6080705, member: 99243"] Hmm, well i see them as highly experienced, being some of the best of the best even if a little unsung about it and having not as much prestige, the ones everyone who knows them knows are awesome, but really aren't worldly known besides maybe one or too..so going by that I'd say maybe 8th to 10th level as most other pirate lords will be around 12 or 14, as for the less is more approach I can get behind that idea, might just include then psionics, a book on magic since it is rather important, the core and stormwrack if they have it. As for Vrilisa she's not really so much the "antagonist" as much as someone everyone THINKS is the bad guy, she's a several thousand year old vampire lord and the oldest of all pirates how could she be a good guy after all, but in reality she's one of the last honorable pirates out there and is intent on finding the weapon more because she'd like to destroy it and keep the iron fisted government from getting it, and the PC's would find this out along the long trips at sea and the adventures. If they really go at it they probably would end up fighting her in the end or I might have her be "evil all along" if that makes the plot better, but for now her high level and power is more a display of age and skill then "you'll be fighting this" since they won't KNOW what her level is [/QUOTE]
