Island Empire Part 2, Mermaid's Rest

Mig attacks the beef with Gusto and finds a comfortable spot to work on the bone while the others talk. He may not be a friend for life, but you are definately the buddy of the moment.

Meetings

As Mingo address Geoffrey will comment "Thank you Priestess, I have found over the years that our mutal interests often cross paths as we continue the never ending battle against the darkness" Pausing slightly to think about her other comment he adds "I would think that their inaction is due to one or two reasons..One is that having assessed their foes strength and numbers in previous encounters they are marshalling their strength and refining their plan of attack and awaiting the right moment or that they ready to proceed but lacking some key piece of information or item that would insure their success"

Responding to Marianna Geoffrey says "She is fine Madame Lockspur, thank you for asking, I think after several weeks of my company she may be in dire need of female compaionship so please feel free to call upon her at anytime. Then looking about the Bedsheet he adds "Perhaps during your visit you would like to avail yourself of our facilites..I can assure you that Elizabeth will have more than enough bath salts and such to loan you some judging by her last bill...and while you are there perhaps you would like to tour the hospital wards to see what we have accomplised with "The Radiant Sun"

For the DM
[sblock]Spoilsport i was going to keep that bit of information quite a bit longer :)[/sblock]
 

[sblock=Geoffrey]Yikes! Sorry, I did not mean to spoil your fun. I guess I should be more careful. I wont tell about the fact that Geoffrey's really a vampire lord sent in by the DM to charm the crew to slay the party in their sleep. ;) [/sblock]
 

Radoon

"To the 'Officers', "So we are all in agreement? We will discuss our plans for taking the undead beyond the wall with the our new friends and hopefully work together to achieve that goal."

Sorry to be redundant but I never heard from Mikey.
 

Gnurl Whiskerling

Gnurl says, "Captain Geoffrey, your warning about the "bolt-holes" for the villains whom we face is well-taken. But may I also suggest that if we can inflict some serious hurt on these villains as we chase them from bolt-hole to bolt-hole, then we should face a correspondingly lesser task when we finally run them to ground. We must just be sure that we are able to recover our own strength at a faster pace than they can do the same, and the addition of yourself and Madam Priestess Mingo to our band makes that all but certain, I hope."

Gnurl says, "Well, sir, I thought that I had a good idea for penetrating the enemy compound, but my recent consultation with a water elemental has dis-abused me of that notion. So I find myself returning to the proverbial drawing-board once again. Although I will offer this for the group's consideration: One of the greatest enemies of wooden sailing vessels is FIRE. Especially if the vessel is carrying a significant quantity of gunpowder. If we can ascertain the location of the pirates' powder magazine, then perhaps I could work some mischief upon them with the judicious employment of a bolt of lightning or two. Or, then again, perhaps another conjuration might be in order, but of a fire elemental this time?"

"Our recent success," as Mingo points to Anson, "was based somewhat on the 'divide-and-conquer' technique. That was dwarven bandits, though, and not undead."

Turning directly to Geoffrey, "Master Vasa, is the Radiant Sun capable of battle as well, or would it best be a distraction and healing basecamp? Watching the exodous of ships this morning, the Radiant Sun must be hard to overlook."

"Priestess, the Radiant Sun is not a true fighting vessel though she is built along the lines of a military frigate she does not possess 1/10 of their armament. She is equipped with ballista and heavy catapults that are mounted to be used against either shore emplacement or sailing vessels. The true might of the Radiant Sun rests with the faithful who sail upon her, and to this effect she can be used as a bastion against darkness. For pratical purposes she is considered consecrated ground and is also warded from evil by spell and ruin. But her primary purpose is for healing and disaster aid, thus the principal foucs and magics of the ship and her crew are for helaing, preservation and protection." Geoffrey replies.
 

Radoon

Radoon and the other 'officers' return to the new arrivals.

Radoon will fill them in on all the details of Allois' disappearance and Marin's subsequent hiring the party to find him, whereupon he is to be brought to Allois' location via a magical portal Radoon carries. Radoon will also tell the tale of one of the members, Michael Storm's treasonous act of lighting the "Sheet" on fire and escaping. He will also tell of Rook's death from a skirmish in the bar that may or may not be related to what is beyond the wall.

OCC - If you need details, let me know, I am not sure how much Scott has filled you in here.

IC - Once Radoon finishes he states, "Geoffry, we were looking for a way to distract those on the other side of the wall while we entered, I think the catapults pounding the wall furtherest from our entry point might be just the diversionary tactic we were looking for. Would you be agreeable to this?"
