The Antigrol Tide (IC)

Upon hearing the lookout's call, N’un T’Chauck looks to starboard to try to spot the ship himself. Then, he looks to the captain for orders. Without knowing if the ship is friendly or not, he thinks, it would surely be dangerous to stay in the lagoon, for that would restrict their actions.

Captain Ben looks at Grondar. "Go ashore? Where do you think we're landing, Port Rolly? You'll sleep on deck tonight, and every night until we reach Tortila! But it was good of you to get the crates and boxes below just the same, although you should have been finished with that long ago.
Sleep on the deck ?! you should have been finished with that long ago ?!
You have luck I don't send you to sleep on the deck with my fist

Thinks Grondar in anger to himself when he hears the captains remarks.

"SAILS TO STARBORD! SOuthbound and heading this way!"
Grondar looks over his shoulder.
This coast is dangerous, better go to the lower deck and wear my Chain. Grondar goes to bring his chain shirt and his weapon.

Colmarr Blackrock, Male Gnome Bard

Colmarr turns at the call of a sail being sighted and makes his way to the starboard rail to see if he can see the ship from his low vantage point, his hand brushing his crossbow just to make sure it’s easily accessible should the need arise.

“Well, two humans speaking gnomish on the same ship, I don’t think I’ve run into so many people in one place speaking my tongue in many years. It will be nice to hear it spoken a little more frequently,” Colmarr replies to Magyar in gnomish, smiling as he strokes his goatee, “Hmm, magic...well we’ll have to see whether you have an aptitude for it. After all the ability to manipulate the energies the art requires are not commonplace, but you may just be one of those with the talent.”

Mag bows to the gnome. "Whatever knowledge you have to share, I will be more than willing to work hard learning it. If I don't have the talent myself, perhaps I can at least learn to recognize it in others."

At the call of sails, he starts, reaching to see that his concealed sling is still where he hid it. Then his stomach sinks. What good is a sling against an entire ship?
 

Captain Ben mutters an oath, one hand tugging at his earlobe and his eyes on Grondar's back vanishing below. "Braer, I'd like you to--" he starts to say, but his first mate is gone up the mast. "Ah, spit in a can! Noonchuck, Troth, trim those sails, we need more speed! Denther! How fast is she moving? Has she seen us, yet?"

To Denther's eye, the vessel is sleek, easily a match for the Pander Ban in speed, especially with the wind favoring her. She's still a long ways off, though. At the heading the Pander Ban is taking, they'll cross paths in under an hour, with the foreign ship still well astern. Another hour or two after that, darkness will descend on the water.

To the rest of the crew, the ship remains hidden in the mist of the sea and the line of the coast. For a moment, N’un T’Chauck thought he may have seen a sail, but he can't be sure.

Ah well, I guess I’ll have to wait until the ship gets closer, but based on the captain’s reactions that doesn’t seem like a good thing...I wonder if he’s worried about pirates or something. I’m sure he’ll tell us when it becomes important. Colmarr thinks to himself as he walks back across to Magyar. “Well Magyar only time will tell, but I can definitely take you through the basics of magical lore if you wish and if you have the time with your duties aboard ship.”
 

Grondar - Human Thug

Grondar wears his chain shirt and brings his spear to the upper deck.
I'm ready for any trouble Captain
Grondar says and raise his spear to the air.
Don't worry lads, you have the right man to protect you!
He says loudly to the others.

As Denter shouts out Troth attach the rope to the rig. Climbs a crate and tries to see the sails of the unknown ship. Can't see a damn ting.
Where in the name of the mighty Baatezu did that crate poped out, I thought I lowered of all of them to the lower deck
Think Grondar to himself with puzzeled face.
