[Eberron] Raider's of Xen'Drik

[Lobo Lurker]

Takis makes his way to a sleeping owl during the day and speaks with it's rider, a scarecrow-framed human woman named Keesha. "I done raised this here pretty thing since it wuz a lil' egg. In House Vad'lis we gots compl'cated eugenics pogroms. We been strivin' for gen'rations ta get da bery best out of ev'ry species we kin lay hands on."

She strokes the giant owl's feathers. "Not only is Cree'x here smarter then yer av'rage owl, but he's gots a great deal more stam'na as well."

OOC: These are just standard House Vadalis-enhanced animals, albiet giant animals.

The warforged stands in her place not moving unless approached. Then she will speak if spoken to.

"Ah, I see. He is a very nice animal. Say, would you mind if I let Faulk help out a bit? I think he would enjoy the opportunity to spread his wings a bit."

After sunset on the 2nd day X aproaches the warforged called Dodger, the one that spoted the first tailing ship. “you plan have... attacked?” “I help with sword” “you can tell me tactic?” X will after the short conversation get to his place besides the mast.

As the days whisk by, Rezzin's excitement grows and grows.

We're going to Xen'drik! We're actually going to Xen'drik!

...he thinks to himself.

Over the next several days he lends a hand to anyone on deck who needs assistance. Nothing whatsoever bothers him throughout their journey... not even the course correction they are forced to make as they approach some storm clouds... although the one thing that does stand out as very curious to him is the number of warforged who haven't moved a single gosh-darned inch the entire trip. The immense boredom that Rezzin would expect to have happen for doing absolutely nothing for almost 150 hours straight confuses the heck out of him, and finally he approaches a couple of them to find out what the heck is going on inside those metal heads of theirs.

He wanders over to Plate and X, both of whom stand on either side of the main mast, and looks them over.

'Hey guys. What's up? How's it goin'? Aren't you, like... BORED or something? What do you guys... DO? You are allowed to walk around and such, you know. You don't have to just stand there. I don't think the Cap would mind that much. He can be a bit crochety, but he's a good guy. Not to be a nag or whatever, but this trip is supposed to be... you know... FUN! Enjoy yourselves! Walk around! See the sights! Right? Right?'

X moves first only his eyes towards Rezzin, after some seconds where he realizes that he is talking to him Mhm?
“many thought in head” “I thinking on Thaanas” he turns his head looking at the direction they are sailing “never bored when think” he gives Rezzin a shy smile ”I learned other races” “like play” “X only have play with Thaanas” he takes some steps forward to Rezzin take him under his arms and trows him a half meter up in the air catching him as smoothly as he can “fun?”

As Rezzin approaches X and herself, Plate merely watches the man. As X approaches the man, she replies back to him.

"Walk the deck? For what purpose? I have no need of such activity. It seems like a waste of time."

Hobbes Shifter Barbarian 2, Search+1, Spot-1, Listen+5 - Flat-Footed: 14

I am very unhappy of the news that there might be storms approaching us. The movement of these ships on the water is unnatural to me and I do not like it one but. I will offer any help that I am able to do to help hurry these boats on the way.

Seeing the large owl land on deck excites me greatly and so I wander/stumble my way over to Keesha. "I was wondering if the next time you go out on a scouting mission if I could possibly accompany you. I have always wondered what it would be like to soar in the air like bird and what do almost anything to make this dream come true." Whispering with a pleading in my voice just so Keesha can here, "I would also give anything and everything to get off this rocking and rolling death trap for any length of time. This traveling by sea does not agree with me at all and I wish to be done with it soon."

(ooc: if you want thier to be any bad side effects for getting sea sick I am ok with it)

 

[Lobo Lurker]

LT, overhearing Rezzin, Plate, & X wanders over. "Well, it seems that you're not quite grasping that we're not ALIVE in the same manner as you are. We do not have muscles that tire nor a need for sleep. We don't use the bathroom nor consume food or drink. When you think about it. The only reason that you move is to keep your flesh-body limber... a limitation that we do not suffer from." He looks around. "But I'll let you in on a little secret... we can and do get bored as hell." He laughs out loud like an echoing, metallic, gong.

The captain can be seen walking across the deck muttering to himself "...warforged."

Jherod emerges from his cabin with Marianna at his side, as always. He quickly makes his way to the port railing and empties this morning's breakfast over the side of the ship. Mariana winces and the young man sits down heavily.

Keesha gives Hobbes permission to go along with her that night... you get the impression that she was too afraid to say no a feral, desperate-looking, wildman.

Faulk is free to fly wherever he likes and if Takis is willing, the captain takes to asking to druid to have his raptor ferry messages between the ships.

"That would be no trouble at all, captain. I think Faulk would appreciate the opportunity to help out."
