Razor Coast Texas Style!

Game Master brvheart

Razor Coast, a devil’s paradise, where a man’s fortune can bleed out quicker than a spitted pig, and where the dawn sky blazes across endless oceans. Oceans that for centuries hid a lost people of whom legend whisper were born into these wild reaches as the sons of sharks. Here, within in the kraken’s clutches, law means little while gold breaks all boundaries and blood, pearls, and rum pay for all sin.

as they leave the shop, Ivar looks at Oro-Tu's half finished serpent tattoo and answers

"Certainly. it will give me an excuse to get another one, I was thinking a 'Compass rose'"

I like this Oro-Tu, probably because the colonists think were both uneducated barbarians,

Ivar, chuckling to himself, they meet with Silas and Leialoha, Ivar will also accept the geas.

Silas is prepared to accept the geas on Leiahola's lead, but is not happy as he abhores being forced to do anything. He tries to think of whether he has come across the Shaghaspondium or Serten.

Typo, that is Sorten, he is a powerful archmage. He seems to believe what he is saying.

Oro-Tu looks at the robed man, watching him menacingly as Silas talks to him. He keeps eyes out for any tricks, considering the Ring watching them recently.

You did notice one thing about the old wizard with the very high perception check - a couple of cat hairs on his robe.

Oro-Tu whispers the information to Leialoha and Silas, in case it means something to them.

Does someone let the rest know?

Deciding boldness might be better if neither of the two know, he calls the sorcerer out, "What is the meaning of the cat hair on your robe? Don't look like cat lover."

"They are from my cat Steve."

Not sure if she believes him about his cat steve, wary to trust stranger bearing gifts, if its too good to be true, it usually is, I walk over to the chapter house to get some water and then cast protection from evil, prayer and discern lies and then return.

Sense Motive to determine truth of his statement about the cat.: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

As you are a "Wizard" surely if you have a cat for a familiar, let us meet him and talk to him.

Passing a message over to the to silas, telling him I am detecting lies and I think it might be a rakshasa.

"Oh, he isn't my familiar just my cat. You wouldn't want to meet him, he'd scratch your eyes out!'

As far as you can tell he is telling the truth.

He willfully allows the detect lies to go through to reveal that up until now as far as he is concerned, he is telling the truth.


Female Human (Ulfen Viking Dame) 79816xp Cleric of Jaren Falkynjagger 8/Warpriest (CoTF) 1 ; HP 83, Init +2, AC: 24 /T: 13 /F: 22; Fort:+11/ Ref:+5/ Will:+13; Per: +13; BAB: +6, CMB: +10, CMD: 23

I say unto you, why do we treat with a "man" who we do not know and is not recommended, on top of it, what he asks for a price is too high, I for one do not agree to his terms for some minor trinkets, the price he asks is one for a artifact, not some rod that we may eventually find on our own or make for our selves. Take the better part of valor and walk away while we still can.


If you deal with pirates and smugglers, you do not trust anyone

listening to the party speak with Kayden, not trusting the man, but having done business with people untrustworthy before Ivar asks

"Why don't we do the job he asking without the Geas and then trade him what he is asking for, for what we are asking for, straight up. We are under no compulsion and he is not out anything if we fail or decide it is against better judgment"


Male Human Rogue6/Clr1 Current Map

"As it clear that some of your compatriots do not trust me I would offer to upgrade the one rod only for accepting the job without the geas."


trust must be earned

Ivar glares at the man,

"If we do the job, geas or not, why not get full payment?"


"I am not crafting it for free. If you do the job, you will get paid 50,000 GP and I will craft the other rod for free upon completion. Bring me the head of Sorten and will up it 20,000 and another 2000 for the heads of each of his apprentices. You would expect me to pay you upfront with no guarantee I will ever see any of you again? Locating the Shaghaspondium is but the first step in what needs to be accomplished. For now, I can tell you no more, but the fate of the world depends upon it."


hard to beat that deal, trust or not

Ivar nods at the Archmage,turning to the party he says quietly

That sounds very reasonable, and he is not requiring the geas, shall we tell him we have an accord?"

is the job he wants done the side-mission that might be lined up while work was being done, or is this something else?


Male Human Rogue6/Clr1 Current Map

This is intended as a follow on adventure once RC is completed. RC only goes to level 12. I have the side mission already planned.


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 10; HP 78, Init +3, AC: 24 T: 17 F:20 ; Fort:+6, Ref:+11/14 vs traps, Will:+10; Per: +12; BAB: +7/+2 CMB: +10, CMD: 23

Silas considers the offer, smiles at Kayden. "Just a moment, " and gathers the others to quietly discuss the offer.

"With no geas it's just an offer of a job. We can try and find out more on this Serten and this object, but the shark is getting closer and the kraken' s right behind. Those are our concern for now."


"I agree with you Silas. Let us focus on the immediate threat, learn more, and then we can focus after shark and kraken."

Sorten:
Sorten is the head of his order. A LG and powerful archmage and developer of many of the schools of magic. A defender of the Army of Light and all that is righteous in Adokos. If he has turned evil no word of it has reached the Razor.

"I don't know all of the enemies you lot have made. If you think one thing is more important than the others at the time, I've no reason to argue with that."


Male Human, Tulita Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 8 / Fighter (Unbreakable) 1; HP 83/104(122), DR 4/-, Init +2, AC 20(18)/FF 18/T 13; F +12(14), R +5, W +5(7); Per +13; CMB +14(24), CMD 27(37); Rage 21/21

"If he is willing to give Leialoha what he needs and payment afterwards, and it is true what he says about this evil sorcerer, then let us just accept the offer. If he has deceived us we lose nothing, and can return for his scalp."


after Leialoha shares his insight

Hard to mistake a defender of the army of light for one of the bad guys, don't mind putting one down if the job calls for it, don't like being lied to though.

Ivar frowns a little when he hears what Leialoha knows

"Yeah, Silas is right, first things first"

hopefully giving us time to sort this out

turning to Oro-Tu he smiles and adds

"Taking scalps now? I like it, much easier than bringing the whole head."


"If you change your mind Silas should be able to send word to me." With that he twists his ring and disappears.

"Well as I live and breathe. If in ain't Silas Frey. You still trying to smuggle everything you can get by the Dragoons?" Leaning against the doorway.

Silas looks up at the familiar voice. "Now Captain Mercy, you know I look for challenges and it was never me doing the smuggling. I just helped provide ways and means."


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Well luv, you know I wouldn't be botherin' ya iffn there wasn't something big in it fer ya! Happen to know of a considerable treasure at a location in an area of the Razor Sea known as the Turmoil. But it seems I lost me last crew and barely have a new ship. We can split it 50/50 what do ya say?"

Sense Motive DC 15:
She is clearly agitated.

"What would you be wanting my associates and I to help with? And on your ship or ours?"

You wait for one treasure haul to show up and two turn up at once :)

hhhmmm wonder what's her angle

Ivar listens to the conversation, intrigued with the offer, watching the lady captain carefully

sense motive: aid another: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 the +2 is because she is a sailor


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Need ya to secure safe passage through the Turmoil from Admiral Tame. Would do that m'self but he and I don't see eye to eye at the moment."


Male Human Rogue6/Clr1 Current Map

Ivar, you can't aid another on Sense Motive, but you did make the DC!

"And why's that? What's the problem with the Admiral?"

good to know

Ivar looks from Silas back to the captain, leaning in close to Silas' ear he whispered

Watch out she is clearly agitated


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Admiral Tame patrols the Turmoil from the Armada and he can get, uh, rather testy at times! He is the pirate lord since Garr died. We didn't exactly get on well the last time we talked and I think he may hold a grudge!"


Human female Universalist wizard 1 | 14 AC | HP 16/16 | F+4, R+4, W+6 | Initiative +0| Perception +4 | 25’ speed |

Know. Local 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25 to see if I know more about Tame


Male Human Rogue6/Clr1 Current Map

The Admiral Uriah Tame knows every ship that passes through the Turmoil. Those who pass through without his permission are attacked, killed, sunk, and then brutally questioned. Pirate lord and ruler of the Armada, a floating town of ships as large as a small city in population.


Human female Universalist wizard 1 | 14 AC | HP 16/16 | F+4, R+4, W+6 | Initiative +0| Perception +4 | 25’ speed |

"I've heard of the Admiral. Quite a powerful enemy you've chosen, Captain Mercy. Have you visited his Armada? I've heard it's quite the sight. Ships as far as the eye can see. "


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Um, yes we ... hrmmmm .... visited. He lent me a hand you might say? Just not in the way I was wanting."

Now she is looking really nervous!


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 10; HP 78, Init +3, AC: 24 T: 17 F:20 ; Fort:+6, Ref:+11/14 vs traps, Will:+10; Per: +12; BAB: +7/+2 CMB: +10, CMD: 23

"So you need us to shield you from the Admiral. What about our destination and the treasure, what do you know of them?"


fifty-fifty, why don't we double cross her to the admiral and take all of it, there is no honor among thieves

not comfortable entering the conversation Ivar leans into Silas and asks

"What's she so nervous about, I think I like Cat Stevens deal better"


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Our destination is west of the Isle of Grey Whispers in the Turmoil. Treasure, there is plenty to go around. We don't dare sail the Turmoil without getting Tame's blessing so to speak. I have a ship, the Capricious and she's already to go."

Her stance betrays her confidence. Her features
are a little too manly for beauty, but she bears herself
with grace, strength, and wit. Her body has been
hardened by work; her skin shows the subtle signs
of a life at sea, her hands the scarring of countless
storms. She’s wrapped in a long wax coat, beneath
which several weapons are visible. Her red hair is
held in a ponytail, above which is a dark fur tricorne
with a huge peacock feather pierced into it.


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Now if you feel you are not up to the task or you feel you are too rich already I will find another crew. I sail with the morning tide."


Male Human Bard (Sandman) 10; HP 78, Init +3, AC: 24 T: 17 F:20 ; Fort:+6, Ref:+11/14 vs traps, Will:+10; Per: +12; BAB: +7/+2 CMB: +10, CMD: 23

"We will take the job, but I want to know the issue with the Admiral, rather than talking round it. We are much better when we know what to prepare for and I can tell when someone is skirting the issue. "


Female Human Ranger6/Rogue5

"Well, if you must know last time Tame and I tangled I cut off his hand! He put a price on my head after that! Damn pirate! He's blood-thirsty, no good and has a taste for human flesh but he can be amused."


Human female Universalist wizard 1 | 14 AC | HP 16/16 | F+4, R+4, W+6 | Initiative +0| Perception +4 | 25’ speed |

"How are we to get Tame's blessing if you behanded him? Are you going to attempt to hide below decks, or can you turn yourself invisibile? There has to be some plan. How do you plan on us getting his permission? I'm not walking into the Armada with you tagging along, that's for sure."
