Campaign Thread VII: F___ Marriage...

ooc: are y'all done looking for stuff?

At this point, I'm not going to buy anything. I'll need to save up a bit more for the anklets.

[Solo]

"I suppose we should head off to this 'plane' and set forth for adventure!"

[Vladeshi]

"I suppose we should head off to this 'plane' and set forth for adventure!"

"Agreed. I, for one, am looking forward to finding out how much punishment a ship can take before it goes under."

[bhu]

You are taken to the cities port to meet Captain Topcat, head of the cities air force.

"We've been told there may be a ship near the island that might fire on us, so we're coming in low around the opposite side and dropping yo off just outside the forest as far from the water as we can safely be.  Any questions?"

[RobbyPants]

Can we bring the NPC with who can cast Water Breathing? The duration is two hours per level, castings on a few PCs might work. If so:

"Who thinks they're most likely to end up in the water, either on accident, or because you're doing some sneaky git stuff to sabotage the ship? I'll take a casting if there are any left over."

"... Any questions?"

"How far to the shore?"

[Vladeshi]

"... Any questions?"

"Are snacks provided on this flight, or do we have to bring our own?"

"Who thinks they're most likely to end up in the water, either on accident, or because you're doing some sneaky git stuff to sabotage the ship? I'll take a casting if there are any left over."

"I believe that I am probably the second least likely to need it, after Miss Morte here, due to the whole flight thing."
Pat gestures to his feet, which are about two inches off of the ground.

[Risada]

"Who thinks they're most likely to end up in the water, either on accident, or because you're doing some sneaky git stuff to sabotage the ship? I'll take a casting if there are any left over."

"I will take one casting, thank you. Hopefully no one will try to throw me into the sea..."

Accompanying you is the Black Death, scorpionfolk sorceress.

"Shouldn't be in flight long nuff fer snackin'.  The Island is haunted, so we ain't hangin' round either."

*hands Mustave ring*

You can use this ta call us when it's pickup time."

[RobbyPants]

"Awesome. Let's roll. Or fly, or something..."

[bhu]

Your all more or less loaded into some verson of these:  http://www.airfields-freeman.com/TX/Hicks_TX_biplane1.JPG

After which is a terrifying, screaming hell flight on a rickety contraption that occasionally loses bits of itself on the way down.  In the distance you can see to 60+ foot boats offshore.  You're put down on the other side of the village.

Your employer looks grim.  "Well, there's bound to be some notice we arrived.  Lets see if anyone's left in the village."  The settlement is a collection of thatched roof, ramshackle houses behind a rock wall obviously older than the buildings it surrounds.  It is eerily silent, and a thin plume of smoke can be seen arising from somewhere within the village.  The landward gates are unmanned and open, swaying occasionally when the wind is strong enough.

"Is anyone good at sneaking/scouting?"

[Risada]

"Is anyone good at sneaking/scouting?"

"Tried sneaking into the bed of a woman in my tribe once. Let's just say that I had to win a fight before getting the good fight, if you know what I mean." Kulgan said that while puffing his chest. "The kind of sneaking we need here is not within my reach."

[Solo]

"Is anyone good at sneaking/scouting?"

"Aye! I'd be happy to go scout with anyone else."

[RobbyPants]

"I'll hold back, since I'm only passably good."

[bhu]

ooc: You sneaking off alone Solo?

[Solo]

OOC: If no one else is willing, then yes.

Wellesley will stretch his legs and set forth to scout out the village WITH CAT-LIKE TREAD!

His Marshal Aura will grant +5 to Dex checks and skill checks, while Mimicking Song grants a +4 to Move Silently.

That's a Hide of +17, and a Move Silently of +20. I'll take ten on both, if possible.

[bhu]

To your left is a pasture with a 4 foot high rock wall, and a ranch house behind it.  To your right is the village surrounded by a rock wall as well.  The beach and docks lie beyond this.  The plume of smoke seems to be coming from the town square, which is where the only noise seems to come from.

[Solo]

Wellesley will quietly sing and dance his way towards the town square.
