I think you'll find it most helpful in finding quality shot.'He takes quick glance to his left as he sees a number of ropes tied off to the rail and strung up to the masts above him.'If any one you have any nautical experience, you'll probably be able to take advantage of the ropes to move up there' ...he point to the mast above, 'and get some REALLY good shots.'Massif moves back to the staircase and begins his descent from the stern to the deck, then wanders over to the door of the captain's quarters.'I think my best position is right here.  Quiet honestly my one strong suit is taking a pounding, so I can defend this door for quite a while if someone was to attempt to break in.  This would give our archers... Systar, would that be you?... and perhaps Digger and Vel as well?... time to peg anyone off from above.  Sorren, you look as though you have skill with your blade... perhaps your best place might be guarding the door to below-decks?  And Celebren, from the looks of things you seem to have a bit of speed about you... so your skills might be best for covering everywhere else.  With your speed you probably can move around the cargo here... plus get below decks to help out the wizard below... Samea, was it?'He glances back to the door leading below-decks as he realizes she is the only one of the group who did not make the journey up here to the top deck.  He then realizes even more surprisingly that he in fact just took a position of so-called leadership as he gave some suggestions as to where the group might best be if something were to happen.  This takes him aback, as all along he's been telling himself that he never wanted a position like that.  But once the time came to work out some tactical stategy, he fell into it more easily that he would have suspected.Hmm... well father, looks like you raised me well.  Hopefully someday I'll be able to use what you've taught me about combat to help our family, rather than a random employer such as this...And with that, he pulls the waraxe from his belt, and begin working on some practice swings while staying in front of the captain's door.</blockquote>
