>Race: Human

>Gender: Male

>Nationality: Free City (Dead Man's Anchorage)

>Fluff: Garrett is a lean and fit young man of average height with a head of scruffy black hair and a pair of cold green eyes. His face is handsome but hard, with numerous nicks and pockmarks marring his good looks. His beard is shorn down to a permanent stubble and his clothes are all heavily patched. In battle he wears a gruesome mask fashioned from a guardsmans' skull and etched with war-oaths taken from the good book of Solarianism, hiding his features behind bleached bone as he lays men low with cutlass and shot.

Mask of the Godless - This macabre mask is infused and enchanted with the raw emotion of malice. It infuses its wearer with the strength to hunt down and kill those who have wronged him. This mask will grant a +5 attack modifier bonus against a single foe that has wronged you in some significant way if you chant his/her full name 3 times. You can only have one person marked in this way at a time and you can’t mark another until that person is dead. It also grants the wearer a +5 bonus to rolls involving sneaking as it helps its wearer blend in with the shadows or the environment in general.

BUNGLA NOHANI VS. PLANTATION MERCENARIES ROUND 2

BUNGLA NOHANI ROLL: 90 + 486 = 576

PLANTATION MERCENARIES ROLL: 75 + 504 = 579

RESULT: STALEMATE, BATTLE CONTINUES

Seeing an opportunity Captain Nohani decides to make a last-ditch effort to muster his remaining men to board the enemy ship, but unfortunately the enemy is wise to his plans and forms a pike formation on the ship, blocking the gangplank with a wall of sharp, pointy steel while the land forces close in. Captain Nohani fights hard however, minimizing losses on his side, but the enemy fights hard as well, and in the end Captain Nohani is unable to board. Moreover Captain Nohani is wounded fairly badly, maybe now might be the time to retreat and live to fight another day?

GERULF STAHLHERZ VS TARAWAK WARBAND ROUND 2

GERULF ROLL: 65 + 130 = 195

WARBAND ROLL: 69 + 108 = 177

RESULT: MINOR VICTORY (Combat continues)

The battle rages ever onward and as it does so your trusty katzbalger calls out to it, begging you to draw it. Upon doing so, your vision goes slightly red, but your mind also becomes clearer, your enemies' movements slower. Your blade guides your hand, directing it to the enemy's vitals as you rip and tear through the enemy line. The tide has turned and you are now on much more even footing, but there are still enemies here, still blood to be spilled. What will you do?

GERULF ROLL: 86 + 120 = 206

WARBAND ROLL: 92 + 72 = 164

RESULT: VICTORY

You feel the bloodlust intensifying with each greenskin that you kill, and a surge of confidence grows as the number of your hated foe decreases dramatically. Soon the few orcs who remain are driven to fear and are routed as they scatter and run into the bush for their lives. It was a hard fought battle, but you stand victorious. Lord von Stossel will be pleased with the amount of heads that you acquired from this skirmish and with the fact that a good chunk of Gruks defenses now lie dead. This will do much to bolster your reputation, but first you'll have to get back in one piece..

Finally the ships with dwarves eager and looking for work arrive! 20 bright-eyed young dwarves sign up to work for you directly, while the others that arrive are content to just find jobs around the town. The town seems much more dwarfly, with a distinct district for the dwarves beginning to take shape. Add 20 Camlann Dwarves to your crew.

You wander the village of Rhamestown looking for people who know of the Onondaga centaurs when you stumble across the rumor of an old anthropologist that lives in the area who is studying the Onondaga culture. It appears that he has made several breakthroughs in deciphering the Onondaga tongue and writing system and would be more than happy to translate for you if you would be so kind as to spare a few doubloons now and then for his research. In addition to his expertise in Onondaga linguistics he also has some medical experience, which may be of use to you….however he is old and getting a bit frail, so it would be wise to keep him out of combat.

A new special crewmember wishes to join you!

Doctor Albert Hobbes - [Medicine III] [Onondaga Translator] - Fee: 5 gold doubloons/turn

As a show of good faith Dr. Hobbes accompanies you to the nearby Onondaga encampment of Canandagua where he helps to mediate between the Onondaga trader and yourself. The trader has no need of your doubloons, as the Onondaga do not value such things in the same way as the “two-legs” do. However he has taken an interest in your crates of limes and other items - perhaps you can use them to strike a deal? This is what the Onondaga merchant has to offer:

1 Canandagua Dreamcatcher - a trinket made of wood, leather and string with buffalo horn and quartz ornaments dangling from it - Price: 1 box of limes

1 Canandagua Warspear - a long spear of high quality with an obsidian tip and adorned with eagle feathers (+3 ATK - requires two hands to wield) - Price: 2 boxes of limes

1 Buffalo Spirit Cloak - a finely made, warm cloak made of buffalo hide and covered with strange symbols and glyphs, Dr. Hobbes explains to you that these are Onondaga magical sigils used to provide protection and ward away evil spirits - (+2 HP + undead and evil spirits receive a small penalty when fighting against you) - Price: 2 boxes of limes + 1 rations

>Hiring Dr. Hobbes or making a purchase is a free action

Although some wood and instructions are left for the dwarves they aren’t sure what to do with it, and before long they decide to abandon the task and hit the taverns. At least they don’t leave your wood lying out to grow mold and stow it somewhere safe…you may have to go back and remind them to get their act together.

After conducting your trade deals and making a decision on whether or not to bring on Dr. Hobbes you set sail and arrive in New Guildford without any incidents.

>>53008

You carefully inspect the Gloria for any signs of damage or wear and find that everything’s in working order. Considering your ship hasn’t seen any real action yet you’re not sure why you stopped to do this but the men feel reassured nonetheless upon hearing that all is well and their ship is secure.

Change morale to Overjoyed (+4). You’re not sure if you can raise your morale further with just actions alone..

Eager to test your mettle, you go to the cannon deck and are about to fire some practice shots when you remember the local rules about how cannonfire in the harbor was disallowed…you figure that you’d better not push your luck.

You return to the local blacksmith to see that although most of his stock was indeed cleaned out, he was able to “find” some things in the back given how you’ve gained some fame for taking out that pesky bounty. This is what he has for sale at present..

1 Toreador’s Espada - This fearsome rapier was imported straight from Castellos. It’s a fine bullfighter’s blade which excels at quick and precise movements yet is strong enough to take down a mighty bull. It’s said that each toreador’s blade is forged with the blood of a freshly defeated bull. (+3 ATK, grants a bonus against animals and beasts) - Price: 150 doubloons

2 crates of regular cutlasses - Standard-issue Castellonian army cutlasses, sturdy enough but nothing remarkable about them. (+2 ATK for 10 crewmembers/crate) - Price: 30 doubloons each

1 Conquistador’s Cuirass - A standard-issue cuirass of Castellonian make. Will provide some decent protection when worn. (+2 HP) - Price: 40 doubloons

1 Conquistador’s Helm - A standard-issue morion-style helm of Castellonian make suitable for protecting the head against impacts and slashing attacks alike. (+2 HP) - Price: 30 doubloons

>Making a purchase is a free action

>>53009

As you walk up to the temple you and your men are greeted by a horrific sight - the sight of a fresh sacrifice taking place. You witness three beastmen atop the profaned stone temple of Xolotl, now dedicated to the worship of the lord of darkness Camazotz - an eagleman, a frogman and an axolotlman. They cry out to you, begging you to save them, which only draws attention to you and your group. Fortunately the vampire crowd is completely enthralled in the event and fails to pay you any heed. Eventually the screaming and pleading of your fellow trapped beastmen is brought to an abrupt halt as the priest swings his macuahuitl and the heads of the poor beastmen are sent flying down the temple stairs, soon to be followed by their lifeless bodies. The crowd goes into a frenzy, guzzling all the blood from the beastmen’s corpses. At this point the scales on the back of your neck grow tense and one thought dominates your mind - you need to get out, NOW. Your fear is not unjustified either, as the vampires have finished their meal and have turned to you. Your legs run back toward your large canoe as fast as they will go as the still hungry vampire horde follows behind, and you barely escape to your boat and head out to sea before they can muster their own ghostly ships to follow you. You thank the gods that you’ve escaped alive, but perhaps the celebrations are a bit premature as a head count reveals that the vampires may have claimed some victims..to make matters worse you and the rest of the men are still reeling from the loss and the gory and horrific spectacle you just witnessed.

Morale changed to Content (+1), lose 5 crewmembers

As you sail northwards to Pasquenoc you do your best to avoid Aztlanic shores and are largely successful in doing so but as you venture northwards you nearly end up embroiled in a great battle between the furless apes like the merchant who once owned your large canoe and the vampires in their ghostly and cursed canoes. However you’re able to get away and make it safely to Pasquenoc without suffering any harm. The village of Pasquenoc is largely a fishing village, one of the few permanent settlements of the Onondaga dominated by wooden longhouses and great totem poles. Surely you may be able to befriend these people and learn of their ways, but first it might be a good idea to find someone who speaks a language you can understand.

Now that you have a moment of peace you try to meditate, but alas your mind keeps returning to the bloody carnage at Calakmul. Perhaps it would be best to try again later, once the memory is less fresh in your mind.

>>53011

In your panic to get back to civilization you find no time to be training your men, and neither do they as they find themselves busy with hoisting the main sails and whatnot. You’ll have to try again later.

However you’re finally able to make it back to Catalao, and the long-awaited sights of civilization come as a welcome sight to you and your crew. You step off and stretch your legs, eager to be setting foot on solid ground, and get to exploring the city. The town is abuzz right now with news of slave revolts in the nearby islands, with a lesser buzz coming from news of orc attacks from the nearby orc village of Ugthuk. Both could be decent as next targets, if you choose to go look.

You order your men to practice swordplay and you too join in the fray, practicing with actual blades like men and not sticks like boys. As the training heats up you find yourself really getting into it as the men stand and watch in awe at your lightning fast footwork and expert maneuvers….and then, suddenly, it happens…a great jolt of pain shoots up your arm as the sinking realization hits you that your left hand is no longer attached to your arm. Oh, the men will never let this down. You’ve gone from Garrett the Godless to Garrett the Handless in an instant. However, the greatest concern to you by far is the fact that you’re bleeding profusely and will probably die if it’s left untreated, on top of the fact that you need to get your hand reattached soon while it still can be. You remember hearing of certain solar miracles that can mend broken and severed limbs, making them like new again. Or if the church isn’t your thing, there are probably tribal witchdoctors willing to do the same thing, though their work can be a bit…questionable…either way you know that you have to act NOW.

Lose 7 HP, change your current status from Healthy to the following: [Severed Hand] (-5 to all physical activity, two-handed activities are now impossible until this status is cured) [Bleeding Out] (Losing 1 HP per turn until this status is cured). Add Garrett the Godless’s Severed Left Hand (3 turns until it can no longer be reattached) to your Treasure tab (takes up no room). Change morale to Discontent (-1).

>>53018

+2 HP (supernatural healing + at rest)

-10 doubloons (special crewmember fees)

You return to see that your deeds seem to have gained some traction around these parts and as a result 20 souls, some of them fellow escaped slaves like you, some of them being some of the relatively few beastmen about and some just being the scalawags and layabouts that are Dead Man’s Anchorage’s usual comers and goers.

Add 5 escaped slaves, 5 Ixtlub beastmen and 10 scoundrels to your crew.

In the time not spent recruiting you’re able to finally get some rest and relaxation, which along with your special trinket helps greatly in healing the aches and pains that you experience. You’re able to clean yourself up a bit and get all the caked on blood off, which helps as well. Soon after your wounds are mostly closed and you feel much better, though still not quite 100%.

Gain 8 HP.

As you lie in your old master’s bed you think about getting up and getting the ships repaired, but with a hearty yawn you decide to put it off a bit longer and go back to bed…your health is more important than any ship after all.

>>53028

+1 HP (Resting)

You reach for the ale in a vain attempt to celebrate but utter fatigue overtakes you and you decide against it for now…the booze will wait until you’re more healed up and you’re ready for it.

You set sail and eventually arrive back in the familiar surroundings of Friedrichsburg and are as happy as ever to be free from the Tarawak shit huts and back in the presence of the stylish Hallandian buildings. You venture to the posh manor of Lord von Stossel with Tarawak heads in tow and his face breaks out into a grin. “Been busy, haven’t you? Well my boy, your efforts are certainly most appreciated.” The lord claps his hands and a servant appears shortly after with a bag of shining doubloons. “Your reward, as promised. Oh, do stick around though, there’s quite a bit more you can do, if you’re interested. The tactic of sending mercenaries has proven to be a great boon in fighting off those little monsters, as you’ve demonstrated. If we keep this up their little collection of hovels will be a pile of ashes before we know it. Therefore I’d like to send you back to that village - if we could just clear it out we may be able to establish a settlement there, which will become the cornerstone of future efforts on the isle. The Isle of Verites would make an excellent addition to the lands of the Hallandian crown, and you’re in an excellent position to make this happen. So please, use your money wisely and take all the time you need to prepare. If you can succeed in delivering me more of those filthy orcs’ besotted heads there will be more gold waiting for you, and even more on top of that if you manage to rout that miserable village and burn it to ashes. I expect good things from you, Mr. Stahlherz.”

Gain 260 doubloons and change reputation with Hallandaine to Trusted (+2).

You rest and relax for some time, but you find that it’s to no avail - your wounds aren’t healing. You take a look and your sores ooze pus and are covered in yellow crust - they’re most definitely infected. You’re not sure whether it’s just jungle rot or whether the orcs had been lacing their weapons with certain…substances, but either way you’ve been around the battlefield to know that it’s bad news for you if you leave it to fester. You’d best seek medical help - or a priest proficient in solar miracles - as soon as possible.

Change status to [Infected Wound] (Healing impossible until this status is cured)

Seeing that now is the time to strike you get the Incendio del Sol into position and send the away teams to plant the improvised explosives and lure the beast out of hiding while it’s still vulnerable respectively. You say a prayer to Sol Invictus, you’ll definitely need it…

Second roll is for your combat

It isn’t long before you see your men scrambling out of the narrow tunnel as fast as they can, with a giant, engorged serpent behind it! As you surmised, it seems much slower due to the fact that it’s still digesting that whale it ate, which will be a welcome blessing. As the dreaded serpent pulls its hulking form to the entrance of the cavern you give the signal…but nothing happens. It’s a dud! Your men frantically try relighting the fuse but it’s much too late…the beast is upon you!

>>53035

-1 rations

>Combined rolls averaged to 55

The men take heed of your threat and separate out to steal and loot what they can. While they’re able to spot the main treasure cache in a well-guarded hut in the center of the village, they don’t bother with actually trying to obtain it - security has been beefed up and the many paranoid-looking orcs prove to be too much of a deterrent. Instead what they come back with are a few baskets of salted raw meat of unknown origin and a sack of 30 gold doubloons that one of your boys pickpocketed from a lone orc. You got some orc heads and some free food and gold as well - this will have to do. You make it back to your ship to pursue your next mark.

Gain 30 gold doubloons and add 3 baskets of tribal rations to your supplies tab.

WORLD NEWS:

Hostilities have increased further between Francisca and Barthelonia due to the revelation that the Franciscan nobleman who insulted the Barthelonian crown has been detained and arrested for his crime. Furthermore the nobleman arrested is discovered to actually be of noble blood - Prince Alexandre, the 4th child of King Beauregard XVII! He was sent to prison to serve his sentence somewhere in the New World, angering the Franciscans greatly. If he isn’t released, war is inevitable once the truce ends.

The Barthelonia/Francisca truce will END in 2 turns!

The Castellonians have attacked and successfully captured the island city of Atzcapahuacan, using holy blessings and superior ships to blockade and crush the vile undead hordes guarding the isle! Though this was a relatively easy victory, assaults on the cursed mainland of Aztlan will prove to be much more difficult…however, this was a solid first victory for the Castellonians in their conquista of the unholy lands.

CHARLES VELDEN ROLL: 22 + 1 (Sand) x 1.2 (Strategy) = 27.6

SKULKRAKKA ROLL: 56 + 4 = 60

RESULT: DEFEAT, COMBAT CONTINUES

The crowd cheers as the fight begins. As you and Boss Skulkrakka trade blows you find that your strategy of outspeeding the green brute seems to be working out just fine - you're able to duck and weave past the most brutal of his punches, avoiding harm. Perfect, this is just the time for you to break out your secret weapon - pocket sand! You throw it in his eyes and suddenly things get much, much worse. Like an enraged bull Skulkrakka begins flailing wildly around the arena, slamming into you and pinning you against the wall, giving him the opportunity he needs to clear out his eyes as you try to get up. You think you felt something pop with that slam - not good, and to make matters worse your blows don't ceem to affect him much. Not good…you may want to start thinking of a plan B before you share the fate of the bones you're stepping on..

MATIAS XIRAU ROLL: 40 + 600 = 640

SEA SERPENT ROLL: 38 + 640 - 1.2x (Engorged) = 542

RESULT: MINOR VICTORY, COMBAT CONTINUES

Though your heart sinks at the sound of the explosives failing your resolve remains unchanged as you order all guns to unload on the serpent and blow it to smithereens. Your cannons and grapeshot works wonders against the serpent, each shot tearing off chunks of flesh and scale alike. Although the giant snake fights like a cornered rat you're able to avoid the worst of the beast's attacks through strategy and quick thinking. Still the beast remains alive, best to put it out of its misery, right?

1. These slaves are rather pitiful as gifts. Farmers are not the most noble profession, but they would make excellent fodder against their once-kin. They shall serve me as my personal thralls and help capture the guards that make for proper slaves. This will also serve as an opportunity to awaken my followers. I have kept a pot of exquisite blood that truly floods the senses and brings ones instincts to their peak. During the ritual they shall partake of this blood and they shall become unstoppable stalkers of the night.

2. It occurs to me that there is little known about this settlement. While slaves are all well and good I am sure that a report of the city would greatly interest the general who is so interested in dominating this land.

3. Hah! Already they line up to the pens in the ravine. They send out multiple patrols, isolated from one another. It shall be a simple matter to herd them to the slaughter. Traps harrying them while they are forced to move and once they think they reached their prey. It will be all too apparent who was the real hunter here when rocks trap them and nets capture them.

CHARLES VELDEN ROLL: 98 + 1 = 99

BOSS SKULKRAKKA ROLL: 37 + 4 = 41

RESULT: MAJOR VICTORY, COMBAT CONTINUES

Skulkrakka continues to charge about the arena, and although your ability to dodge is much less in your battered state you manage to avoid his charges like a matador avoiding the bull's horns. However you know you can't keep this up forever…you need a plan. That's when you step on a large and sharp broken femur bone, a perfect improvised weapon! As he charges you once more you make your move, jamming the bone into his stomach and lodging it in there as the orc tries to slam into you. The giant orc screams in pain, and at this moment you know the tables have turned. All that's left to do is to finish him off, though anything can happen as both you and Skulkrakka are getting desperate..

SEA SERPENT ROLL: 37 + 600 - 1.2x (still engorged) = 510

RESULT: MINOR VICTORY, COMBAT CONTINUES

You lure the hulking beast further out to sea, kiting it along as it lunges desperately at your ship, all the while being peppered by cannonfire, leaving more serious dents and scratches along its body and seriously damaging its front. A trail of blood now lingers in the beast's wake as it continues to desperately chase you, and you know that the battle is going in your favor. If you can just keep this up, the beast will surely perish.

MATIAS XIRAU ROLL: 27 + 480 = 507

SEA SERPENT ROLL: 88 + 600 - 1.3x (still engorged + wounded) = 481

RESULT: MINOR VICTORY

Unfortunately the strategy of kiting would not last forever, as the beast gains speed as its meal digests. Eventually the serpent is able to catch up to your ship and slams its body against it, cracking wood and knocking some poor souls overboard as it does so. The men draw their cutlasses and prepare for close-ranged combat against the beast, holding it off while the cannon crew prepares their final trump card - a close-ranged blast of grapeshot straight to the beast's gut. It's highly effective, as the cannons blow open a great hole in the beast's gut from which it cannot recover. The serpent flails as its entrails fly out in a gory display and eventually it sinks below the surface before floating back to the surface like a dead goldfish. Your surviving men rejoice - you have won! They salvage what they can of the serpent's corpse - there's plenty of fresh meat here, though it smells a bit fishy, and there's several barrelfuls of the serpent's scales here, which are hard as a rock. They can either be sold or turned into something nice provided you can find a craftsman to work the stuff for you. You also heave the serpent's head on board as proof of your victory.

RESULT: MAJOR DEFEAT

The crowd begins to cheer ever more wildly as soon the conflict would reach its bloody ending, with one side emerging victorious. You look for more bones, perhaps one more would finish off the green bastard. However, as you look, the wounded Skulkrakka winds up and hits you with an uppercut that sends you flying. As you struggle to pick yourself up, you find that everything's going black…shit, is this how it ends?

You later find yourself muddied and bloodied, but still alive, although your arms are bound and you see the smart-looking orc cackling above you with your still-bound crew. "DA BOSS SPAREZ YA TODAY, SEZ YOU GUD FIGHTA, BUT WEZ BE TAKIN' YAZ FOOD AN' SHINIES INSTEAD. 'AND 'EM OVA AND WEZ LETS YA LOT GO!"

Not seeing any other choice, you hand over all your gold doubloons and food supplies, along with some of your weapons, although you're able to stow away some of your belongings. With that the orcs untie you, laughing and cackling at you and your crew the entire time and your men take your injured body back to your ship, bloodied and bruised but still thankful to be alive.

>Heirloom Item:

Sailcloth of the Santisma Madre - This tiny, handkerchief-sized square of tattered and beaten sailcloth is all that remains of the Santisma Madre, the ship that had once promised you fame and glory. Kept throughout all the pain endured in Aztlan at the hands of the cursed children of Camazotz, this sailcloth gives you the strength to endure whatever may come, no matter the odds. As long as this sailcloth is in your possession, you are able to maintain your resolve through any situation and thus are immune to fear or sanity-related status effects. The sailcloth also brings good luck at sea, granting +5 to sea travel rolls and +1 ship ATK to the ship you’re currently on.

1. A job well done, but still, good men were lost in the effort to slay this venerable beast! We shall honor their memory, and those that are able to be put to rest, or rather are in enough pieces to, will be laid to rest in the same sea they died. After this, we shall plot course for Dead Man's Anchor, to claim our just reward. Each man shall be paid his share, and our recent additions shall be given the option to stay on with us.

2. Upon return and collection of payment, foremost in priority would be the restoration of the ship to its proper fighting state. Hull leaks plugged, torn and shattered boards replaced, and sails sown and cannons cleaned. I want this ship back in peak form before we set out again on the high seas. While we're procuring supplies see if any of the merchants know about anyone able to fit a figurehead.

3. After this, begin the look once more for work, something more personal then fighting a giant beast on the high seas.

>Nationality: Free City (Dead Man's Anchorage)

>Fluff: Garrett is a lean and fit young man of average height with a head of scruffy black hair and a pair of cold green eyes. His face is handsome but hard, with numerous nicks and pockmarks marring his good looks. His beard is shorn down to a permanent stubble and his clothes are all heavily patched. In battle he wears a gruesome mask fashioned from a guardsmans' skull and etched with war-oaths taken from the good book of Solarianism, hiding his features behind bleached bone as he lays men low with cutlass and shot.

>Heirloom Item:

Mask of the Godless - This macabre mask is infused and enchanted with the raw emotion of malice. It infuses its wearer with the strength to hunt down and kill those who have wronged him. This mask will grant a +5 attack modifier bonus against a single foe that has wronged you in some significant way if you chant his/her full name 3 times. You can only have one person marked in this way at a time and you can’t mark another until that person is dead. It also grants the wearer a +5 bonus to rolls involving sneaking as it helps its wearer blend in with the shadows or the environment in general.

1/2. Fuck! DOUBLE fuck! We have nothing on hand to properly tie off the wound– and nothing that can actually put the hand back on!

Send men to scour Catalao for a priest, a shaman, a surgeon, a barber– anyone who can put the hand back onto the stump!

3. Even as Garrett wraps his spurting limb and kicks sawdust onto the bloodsplatter, he knows his men will not be taking this event lightly. He makes light of his new condition with his usual swagger– it's a good thing the hand's off, boys, because otherwise every scoundrel and barmaid here to Francisca would be in trouble!

Ease the crew's discontent with black humor and carefree demeanor.
