MAIN CHARACTERS: Vulcuran12th Level Ranger, 7th level Thief, Duke of Camerondale | Pluger | Victoria

DMaster: You have been walking north for about 10 hours, you are all exhausted and hungry,

Vulcuran: I think we will hunt, Ill get Krinus so we can get going.

DMaster: Krinus is sitting down nibbling on some cold fish… he has a soured look on his face

DMaster: Ok

Vulcuran: Why the sour puss face?

DMaster: KRINUS: This fish is horrible!!!!

Vulcuran: LOL

Vulcuran: ok lets go hunt…

DMaster: KR: think we’ll find much around here?

Vulcuran: Its worth a shot.

DMaster: KR: Ok lets go!

DMaster: PLUGER: I will watch over our group while your gone mighty leader

Vulcuran: Get bent Plug.

DMaster: you two set off into the scarse wooded area… a tree every 6-7 feet. there is barely any cover and the night is closing in quick.

Vulcuran: Ok well we will search for food.

DMaster: Yeah you pass by a mcdonalds…

Vulcuran: HA HA real funny. Ill stop for the 2 for $2 dollar burger.

DMaster: No really… KRINUS: M’lord I think we are making to much noise for any animals to

approach

DMaster: KR: Do you want to find a spot to squat?

Vulcuran: Squat???

Vulcuran: What???

DMaster: KR: Hide and wait.

Vulcuran: Its gonna get dark quick, but ok, I guess we dont have much of a choice.

DMaster: KR: I saw a spot farther back.

Vulcuran: lets go!

DMaster: You two squat behind decent brush and wait….

Vulcuran: Ill wait.

DMaster: Ya think?

Vulcuran: grrrr

DMaster: Ok you wait for one hour… nothing.

Vulcuran: ok

DMaster: Ok another hour and nothing…

Vulcuran: Whisper to Krinus – Maybe we should move on.

DMaster: KR: Patience is a virtue… if we move it would of been all for naught

Vulcuran: Ok….. zzzzzz

DMaster: Ok its dark now, and thankfully both moons are almost full. There is plenty of light.

Vulcuran: Ill wait…. lalalalalala

DMaster: After another Hour, movement is heard in the distance to the west of you.

Vulcuran: which way did we come in?

DMaster: You were moving east to west… the noise is coming from the West north west.

Vulcuran: Ok get my arrow ready.

DMaster: Krinus is already pulled his bow back and ready to fire. KRINUS: Fire at will sir?

Vulcuran: let it get close enough, but yes if you have a good shot at it then fire.

DMaster: KR: Ok M’lord.

DMaster: After a few minutes the noise gets into the light. Its a pretty big black bear.

Vulcuran: should we shoot this?

DMaster: KR: Its food, bear meat is meat.

Vulcuran: Good point on 3 1 2 3!!!

DMaster: you both send the arrows flying, Krinus’s hits the bear square in the skull through his

left eyeball. Yours is off a bit pinning the poor bears paw to the tree.

Vulcuran: DAmn!

DMaster: The bear starts thrashing around… its a good 70 feet away…

Vulcuran: keep real quiet and string up another arrow

DMaster: Krinus: launches another one whizzing over the bears head KR: Rrrrrrrrrr

Vulcuran: Ill launch another one

DMaster: Ok… rolling… thud you hit his shoulder.

DMaster: The bear flops on the ground and is writhing in pain.

DMaster: Krinus launches another one.

DMaster: thud right on the top of the bears head. The bear suddenly stops moving…

Vulcuran: creep out of the brush and watch the bear for breathing or movements.

DMaster: Krinus rolled a 20. There is no breathing.

Vulcuran: walk over there keep an eye on his stomach for any rises and falls…

DMaster: Nope. none.

DMaster: KRINUS: Hes dead.

Vulcuran: and you havent been promoted more? Clever deduction.

DMaster: KR: (speachless)

Vulcuran: Ill go over to the bear and see how heavy it is…

DMaster: the bear is the size of two husky men, so thats pretty much the weight.

Vulcuran: Maybe we can carry the bear, or drag it.

DMaster: KR: Ok, it will be a long haul with this on our back!

Vulcuran: got any better ideas?

DMaster: KR: nope.

Vulcuran: get pulling!

DMaster: You and krinus after a good half hour of dragging it to the party, just outside the

scarse forest area.

Vulcuran: were back

DMaster: PLUGER: SHHHH (in whisper) there is people up ahead, Im not sure who or what they are.

They have torches and are slowly walking along.

Vulcuran: how long have you seen them…

DMaster: Just happened about 5 minutes ago. They dont look hostile from this distance.

Vulcuran: then we stay put, get the men in front of the women and have them on guard.

DMaster: Ok the slow moving line of people or whoever gets closer and closer, do you do anything

else before they get closer?

Vulcuran: Yes I will draw my sword, in case of a quick melee attack, but keep it down not to be

in a threatening manner. Stand in the front and wait.

DMaster: Ok, you stand infront of your men and women. The “caravan” ill call it, gets into view.

There are two skinny men leading the group.

DMaster: The two men look extremely frightened. They seem to be frozen with fear.

Vulcuran: Hello, we mean no harm!

DMaster: The two men continue to be frozen except the exchange of looks between them.

Vulcuran: I will sheath my sword.

Vulcuran: then I will approach them, slowly.

DMaster: Ok, the seem taken back by you and your royal -tattered- outfit. Pluger is right behind

you and he is in his armor and Knight stuff. Your men are all geared up, so you are a

bit intimidating.

Vulcuran: I will keep my hands were they can see them then say. Greetings, we are lost wanderers

looking for a place to stay the night, I dont mean to impede your caravan of sorts but

I

Vulcuran: need to find shelter for my party here.

DMaster: the one man speaks: Please dont hurt us take what you want we will not resist.

DMaster: He offers the bag he carries.

Vulcuran: NO NO NO I do not want to hurt you, I only mean to find shelter for my party.

DMaster: PLUGER: (whispers) I dont think these are the sharpest swords in the Armory.

Vulcuran: shut it Pluger

Vulcuran: WE mean you NO HARM! NO HARM! We dont want your stuff or you, or anything BUT shelter.

DMaster: The two men exchange glances. MAN: Alright then, we just want to pass without incident,

I dont think we will be able to help you.

Vulcuran: Come on you have to know a place where my party can stay. Where do you live?

DMaster: MAN: It is not the greatest idea to go with us. Let us pass, and you can be on your

way.

DMaster: PLuger looks at you. and shrugs his shoulders.

Vulcuran: Very well… be on your way. We will continue North then. You must of come from some

where.

DMaster: MAN: yes a town up north about a 5 hour walk from here. G’Night M’Lord.

Vulcuran: Oh vey…. good night

DMaster: PLUGER: That was interesting, wonder what they were carrying?

Vulcuran: I think we should follow them anyways.

DMaster: Pluger gets a shit eating grin on his face, PLUGER: YES SIR!

Vulcuran: we will wait for them to get out of site, enough to watch the torches to be seen.

DMaster: Ok… you wait for 10 minutes and you head out following the dotted red marks of

torches lit in the distance. you follow that South for another half and they take a

sharp turn to the west.

Vulcuran: follow

DMaster: after another hour of walking, everyone is tired, the Bear is getting heavy… 2 men

are carrying it, and everyone is hungry.

Vulcuran: Man where they live?

DMaster: PLUGER: I think there sire.

Vulcuran: Look

DMaster: The are heading for a village of sorts, some lights are apparent, but its hard to tell

the size or anything, except its a dwelling at least.

Vulcuran: I hope we find somewhere to stay.

DMaster: As you close in on the village, it appears to be a smaller village, a couple dozen huts

scatter the outskirts while maybe 100 surround alarge hill. On that hill a spooky

looking

DMaster: Looking castle or stronghold if you will ontop. It seems to overlook the village.

Vulcuran: Oh man, I hope we can get shelter some where.

DMaster: PLUGER: Man I need to eat, my stomach is getting so small Im going to poop it out.

Vulcuran: Nice Pluger.

DMaster: You close in to the village, the outter Huts and houses seem abondened while only a few

have lights on.

Vulcuran: keep on the path.

DMaster: Ok, the closer you get in the more concentrated the Huts are, a few people poke there

head out, its about 830pm in now time compared to your time.

DMaster: a few people stroll along the roads, a few stop and watch you pass.

Vulcuran: Ok

DMaster: PLUGER: Man kind of creepy huh, all these people are pretty skinny and down right ugly.

Vulcuran: I guess, where the hell should we go?

DMaster: PLUGER: Maybe we should leave the party on the outskirts with Krinus

Vulcuran: Ok but lets hurry it up, let them eat the remaining food… we will cook up the bear

soon. That should last for a couple days.

DMaster: PLUGER: Ok, lets do it.

Vulcuran: Ok send the party to the outskirts, tell them the first sign of trouble run away.

DMaster: PLUGER: M’Lord, I suggest we go to the Castle.

Vulcuran: Yeah I agree.

DMaster: You two stride through the village, alot of people look at you as you walk by, thay all

get out of your way. Its like they never saw someone before.

Vulcuran: Oh well… we will go directly towards the castle.

Vulcuran: lalalalalala

Vulcuran: walking lalalala skipping, you there?

DMaster: yeah check your e-mail

Vulcuran: ok be right back.

Vulcuran: eeeehhh thats a spooky looking place (the first pic, upper right hand of page)

Vulcuran: gret.

Vulcuran: Great.

DMaster: you are about 50 yards from it when the gate starts to lift…

Vulcuran: ahh we are expected.

DMaster: PLUGER; Well now thats hospitality!

Vulcuran: lets not get to comfy.

Vulcuran: keep walking…

DMaster: The double doors open behind the gate. a figure appears, your about 25 yards.

DMaster: What do you do?

DMaster: Quit spanking it dupe, where are ya>?

Vulcuran: no demonspawn got loose.

DMaster: Ok… what do you do?

Vulcuran: I continue walking a bit slower keeping my hand on my sword.

DMaster: PLUGER; Im not liking this too much I sense something is not right, we are being

watched. Never thought this Knight training would pay off. I feel eyes from all sides.

Vulcuran: slow down considerably, keeping an eye out for anything suspicous.

DMaster: Ok… the figure appears to be a old man with a nice outfit on… a typical butler if

you will.

Vulcuran: ok slowly walk up to him. Greetings.

DMaster: The old man smiles OLD MAN: Please, Please come in. he nods and opens his arms to show

you can go in.

Vulcuran: I guess we go in huh Pluger?

DMaster: PLUGER: (perplexed) Yeah.

Vulcuran: ok go in.

DMaster: You too go in and stand in what seems to be an entrance to this castle. In front of you

are giant stone stairs leading up to a

DMaster: 2nd level, that second level has a balcony. below to the left is a double door as well

as a double door to the right. there is a passage way leading to the left and that is

where the old man went.

Vulcuran: I guess wait, but be on my towes.

DMaster: ok, you are real hungry and tired, so is Pluger.

DMaster: A figure appears at the top of the stairs…

Vulcuran: keep a close eye on it, be prepared.

Synopsis:

The Camerondale party gets out of the cave, only to find an angry ocean.  The ship turns and tussles and Vulcuran finds himself kissing the floor hard, knocking himself out. He awakes floating with debris on the coastline. The party finds him and gets him healed.

MAIN CHARACTERS:  Vulcuran12th Level Ranger, 7th level Thief, Duke of Camerondale  |  Pluger  |  Victoria

Vulcuran: We have to get out of here!!!

DMaster: PLUGER: No kidding, Im getting all the prisoners and getting someone to

get some kind of food.

Vulcuran: smart ass

DMaster: DM: Maybe you should help out a little instead of picking your ass.

DMaster: Dude what are you doing, quit spanking it.

Vulcuran: Im going to jump off the boat and help get the thing moving out of the cave.

Vulcuran: shut up

DMaster: The cave is beginning to shake more, and some rocks fall down from above, some hit the shore shattering,

while others plunge into the water

Vulcuran: get the boat moving

DMaster: Ok there are 10 men including yourself pushing it… then its getting to deep…

DMaster: Pluger finally got all the prisoners and troops on… they have stuck

long oars out the sides and begin to padel.

Vulcuran: Get onto the boat and get the hell outta here!

DMaster: ok… the cove is still shaking, rocks falling, everyone

is scrambling to get below deck.

DMaster: Pluger runs for his cabin

Vulcuran: I’ll dodge the rocks

DMaster: Rolling to see if any hit you…. fortunately no real large rocks even hit the ship

DMaster: Nope you dodged successfully and get to your cabin, that is where your going right?

Vulcuran: yes

DMaster: ok you finally make it out to sea… the sea is thrashing the

boat… waves hitting it over and over

Vulcuran: Shit we hit a storm.

DMaster: Captain walks over to you, grabbing anything to stay standing

DMaster: CAPTAIN: We have to drop anchor, settle ourselves in! AYE!

This is a very angry sea matey! Hold on its going to be a long night!!

Vulcuran: ooooh ok great!

DMaster: for hours you sit and get hit by wave after wave of water…

by the dawns break you realize this wasnt a storm, the sky is blue!

The water is just nuts!

DMaster: The Captain walks over to you, holding on for dear life….

Vulcuran: Yes Captain

DMaster: CAPTAIN: Northbound M’Lord there are billows of smoke….

Its the Volcano no doubt, its erupting…. it will send tidal

wave after tidal wave at us… we need to get to safe harbor

soon!

DMaster: we anchored a few yards from the cave we are now a good 1/2 mile away

Vulcuran: So how far away is the nearest harbor

DMaster: Dont know sire! AYe this is not good!

Vulcuran: well we should try to get to a harbor

DMaster: The waves have steadily gotten worse

Vulcuran: We need food though

DMaster: CAPTAIN: We need to live first to eat!

DMaster: Pluger swaggers over to you.

Vulcuran: Well Captain I am Trusting your judgement whatever direction

you head is fine with me

DMaster: PLUGER: THis is not good, its the Volcano!

Vulcuran: No kidding

DMaster: CAPTAIN: Direction? Im afraid to move, we need to get close

to shore… preferably a little north of the caves. (The

cave of the Pirates were on an island )

DMaster: We need to hit solid land.

DMaster: No island!

Vulcuran: Well we need to stay close to shore but we gotta get out of here to

DMaster: CAPTAIN: I am raising the sails and bringing up the anchor

and making a bee line to the shore

Vulcuran: okay sounds good to me

DMaster: Pluger looks over to shaking his head

DMaster: to you

DMaster: PLUGER: We are doomed!

DMaster: this water is as violent as I have ever seen

Vulcuran: Pluger do me A big favor

DMaster: He moves on trying to get to his quarters…

DMaster: the boat violently starts shaking back and forth

Vulcuran: hang on everybody

DMaster: you are sailing for the coast, you can tell, but the ship

is popping in and out of the water. Water rushing on and off the deck of the ship

DMaster: a huge wave hits the boat almost knocking you out of the ship….

the next wave you will have to roll to stay on board…

Vulcuran: I’m going to my quarters

DMaster: Ok It will take you two rounds to get there….

1-3 ona 20 sided die that you get washed out of the vessel

DMaster: The next wave wasnt bad at all…. a small one

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster: you’re halfway there

Vulcuran: I will pick up alittle

Vulcuran: LaLaLaLa

Vulcuran: Damn smurf song

DMaster: well there is no one to get there… The boat is getting thrown

around… you can see the coast from here… the odd part about

the whole thing, is that the sky is blue

Vulcuran: Gummi Bears bouncing here and there and everywhere

DMaster: its not a storm…

DMaster: hee hee

Vulcuran: Damn must be the volcano causing underground quakes

DMaster: your closing in to the coast when a gigantic wave forms in the distance

Vulcuran: Oh shit brace myself for impact

DMaster: Pluger is a few yards from you…

Vulcuran: what is pluger doing

DMaster: PLUGER: BY ANIMAX ON HIGH!!!!! Were going to crash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DMaster: PLUGER: Oh wait… That looks like a large wave, it will destroy us but I will smile and be of good cheer…

Gotta stay positive as we DIE!!!!

Vulcuran: Shut up Pluger or I’ll kick your ass

DMaster: The boat starts to rise and rise and rise and all of a sudden

you are upside down, water rushing everywhere

DMaster: your getting thrown around like a rag doll

Vulcuran: oh my god and goddess don’t let me die like this

DMaster: and you watch yourself go head first into a beam… knocking you out cold.

DMaster: SMACK!

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster: you wake up to crashing waves… and water hitting you and

rolling out… hitting you and rolling out

Vulcuran: look around

DMaster: you are laying half on a rock

DMaster: debris scattered everywhere…

Vulcuran: well I am gonna look for Pluger

DMaster: ummm no

Vulcuran: okay

Vulcuran: how about land

DMaster: you cant move your leg and your head is absolutely throbbing, you

can barely see

Vulcuran: well I will look at my leg

DMaster: its like laying in the wrong direction… its definitely broken

Vulcuran: Shit

DMaster: its half in the water.. it would most likely hurt but your head

is throbbing so bad you cant tell

Vulcuran: well I can’t stay here forever

DMaster: there are large rocks scattered across the shoreline…

you happen to be on the farthest one out to sea.

DMaster: you can see the shore from where your at

DMaster: its a good 50 yards

Vulcuran: Well I need to get to shore

DMaster: you see half the boat wrecked up on shore, and bits of it

scattered about the rocks

Vulcuran: wait for a piece of wood to float my way

DMaster: there are people walking around on the shore, but its hard to

tell… its so far away

Vulcuran: I will start yelling hopefully someone will hear me

DMaster: Your lucky day… there is a piece floating about 10 feet

away… its coming your way… not sure if it will hold you…

Ill roll 1-20 20 being very large

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster: you really cant… the pain is to much

DMaster: 15

DMaster: most likely will hold you.

DMaster: its right by you now

Vulcuran: grab it

Vulcuran: gotta fight pain and get to shore

DMaster: ok its a very thick piece…

Vulcuran: I will paddle with my hands

DMaster: ok well you can swim with one leg, your leg is broken and by

grabbing the wood you realized something is wrong with your

shoulder too…

DMaster: one leg is all you got

Vulcuran: well I guess it will have to do

DMaster: the tide is helping take you into shore…

1-5 on the 20 you head straight for a rock

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster: You just miss one but you hit the gravel shore…

DMaster: You hear people in the distance… “LOOK! THE DUKE!!!!!”

Vulcuran: at least I made it to shore

Vulcuran: I am just gonna lay ther

Vulcuran: there

DMaster: after a few minutes you recognize Plugers voice

DMaster: “M’LORD! M’LORD!”

DMaster: you hear footsteps running…

Vulcuran: Pluger my friend how good it is to see you

DMaster: you are pretty much face first into the gravel

Vulcuran: well I will just lay there

DMaster: dodging water tides… you cant move, you have a dislocated shoulder

, broken leg, and a hurtin head

DMaster: Pluger slowly turns you over

Vulcuran: owowowo that hurts

DMaster: His eyes get real big “By Animax. M’Lord can you see me? Can you hear me!!!”

Vulcuran: yes I can I’m not dead yet

DMaster: PLUGER: you look terrible

Vulcuran: gee thanks nice to see you too

Vulcuran: okay I’ll take a rank 2

DMaster:: Pluger: I know just the guy… Pluger yells “KRINUS!!!”

DMaster:: A man arrives about 20 years old, in clean hardly used armor, arrows and a long bow.

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: you two head out… wade through the opening, and walk up the man made

(crudely made) stairway

Vulcuran: so Krinus how good are you with that bow

DMaster:: its barely visible but its there

Vulcuran: looks like the pirates have returned

DMaster:: Krinus : M’Lord, should we return?

Vulcuran: I think we should

DMaster:: DM: Just then Krinus wheels around flipping an arrow out of his pouch

and strings it up and aims it toward a tree about 20 yards away

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: KRINUS: Sire…There is some one by the tree

Vulcuran: shit if he misses I will take a shot

DMaster:: he is just holding fire, dude he doesn’t shoot unless you give word,

remember these men take orders from YOU

Vulcuran: take the shot but don’t kill the person I want him or her alive

DMaster:: KRINUS: I cannot be responsible for any shot that kills its my job,

I either shoot to kill at this distance or dont shoot at all, no

disrespect M’Lord

Vulcuran: okay shoot

DMaster:: He lets it fly, it just missed the side of the tree and you see a

slumping figure hit the ground.

DMaster:: KRINUS: Damn Im good…(he grins)

Vulcuran: carefully go over and check the person out

DMaster:: The person is a young woman, clothes tattered and an arrow…

I have to roll to see where it hit

DMaster:: they are taking there time walking up the hill

DMaster:: KRINUS: Shouldn’t we get into the cave with the rest?

DMaster:: KRINUS: What about the girl?

Vulcuran: take her with us

DMaster:: Krinus grabs the girl, rips the arrow out of her and whips her over his shoulder…

he starts his run for the stairs down to the cave.

Vulcuran: follow behind

DMaster:: Just then “HEY!!!!! STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” you hear from down the hill where the men were.

Vulcuran: keep going

DMaster:: you here some yelling from down the hill…

DMaster:: Krinus: M’Lord make haste!

DMaster:: Krinus is hustling down the steps…

Vulcuran: I’m running as fast as I can

Vulcuran: go go

DMaster:: he stops at the end to let you pass….

Vulcuran: keep running

DMaster:: KRINUS: Here m’lord take the girl!

Vulcuran: Okay I will

DMaster:: He grabs a pouch off his belt…

Vulcuran: yeah

DMaster:: and grabs this glass jar out of it

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: he whips the ball at the stair case, towards the top

DMaster:: and all this liquids starts to trickle downt he stairs.

DMaster:: KRINUS: Metal Shaving Oil, very slippery….

DMaster:: He then takes off his pouch and kneels and gets ready to take aim practice…

Vulcuran: I will suit myself Thank You besides we can you your talents there to

DMaster:: you two are running into the cave splashing along the way

Vulcuran: keep going

DMaster:: Pluger is picking his teeth with his sword…

Vulcuran: Pluger get the men ready we got company

DMaster:: A little startled Pluger looks up, “OK!”

Vulcuran: Now!!!!!!

DMaster:: PLUGER YELLS across the bay area of the cave, “IN POSITIONS!!!!!”

DMaster:: The men get ready…

DMaster:: everyone takes about a half a second to get to their designated spot and waits.

Vulcuran: we also have a wounded person here see that she get’s some medical attention

DMaster:: 20 of the men have their Bows drawn and 15 have Crossbows drawn…

DMaster:: Pluger grabs her (she is now unconcious) and takes her to the hut.

You can hear screams and hollars from the woman’s hut…

Vulcuran: I will take my position

Vulcuran: I will await the arrival of the men

DMaster:: Everything is quiet for a few minutes until you hear…

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: arghh!!!!!!!!

Vulcuran: from where

Vulcuran: HAHAHAHA

Vulcuran: keep waiting good one Krinus

DMaster:: Krinus looks over to you and nods with a smile.

DMaster:: “SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! who put oil on this goddamnit!”

DMaster:: about 3 men poke around the corner of the cave entrance

Vulcuran: keep waiting for the men to arrive

Vulcuran: keep waiting for the rest

DMaster:: PLUGER: You have to give word….

Vulcuran: I will I am waiting for the rest of them to come in

DMaster:: DM: The men go out of site again….

Vulcuran: damn they know something is not right

Vulcuran: the next time they show their heads in here Pluger we grab them

DMaster:: PLUGER: Yeah they probably are retreating, but they know their women

and children are here

DMaster:: DM: The cave entrance is about 20-30 feet long from outside to inside so

to grab them you would have to be visible enough for a good 20 yards

through shallow water

Vulcuran: Play the waiting game

Vulcuran: no one moves

DMaster:: For about 20 minutes NOTHING…

Vulcuran: keep waiting

DMaster:: PLUGER: What happened up there?

Vulcuran: We saw a figure moving in the trees I thought that it might be one of

the men and told Krinus to fire his bow

DMaster:: and…

Vulcuran: Well he hit her as you can plainly see

DMaster:: and…

Vulcuran: then the men started coming up the hill so we ran back here

DMaster:: ok…

Vulcuran: Is that good enough for you

DMaster:: Out of no where men come ripping out of the water with crossbows….

Vulcuran: shit

Vulcuran: fire back

DMaster:: and 20 men come from the cave entrance with swords and daggers

DMaster:: PLUGER: Give the word!

Vulcuran: ATTTAAACCCKKKK!!!!

DMaster:: Arrows fly from rocks and ledges…while the Pirates just LOOk to

find something to shoot at, you are all well hidden and protected

Vulcuran: keep firing

DMaster:: arrows rip through the air … gotta roll, we have 60+ men fighting here

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: Most of the Crossbows are shot at you

DMaster:: because you yelled attack

DMaster:: the men with swords are closing in

Vulcuran: okay I will get my sword ready

DMaster:: ok… 5 Pirates are hit bad… as they fall into the water,

while the other ones are still running around

DMaster:: now to see if any Bolts hit you.

Vulcuran: Ohhhhh hereeeeee weeeeeee gooooooo

Vulcuran: shit that was close

DMaster:: Pluger: Permission to melee sir, men with swords getting awfully close…

Vulcuran: goo

DMaster:: 2 men are running towards you as Pluger confronts them…

Vulcuran: I want the Leader

DMaster:: Pluger dodges one swipe and parrys the other he counter swipes hitting

one of the pirates in the side

DMaster:: “YARG!”

Vulcuran: That’s what I like to see

DMaster:: he parrys again and misses with his attack

Vulcuran: I keep looking for the leader

DMaster:: tough to find leader…

DMaster:: They all look alike

Vulcuran: well I will start swinging at anybody that get’s close to me

DMaster:: well there is one coming your way, a younger guy with a aunt

chamima thing on his head…”ARRRGHHH!!!!!!!!”

Vulcuran: Time to show them what I’m made of

DMaster:: He gets first shot…

DMaster:: A frenzied slash… Felt the breeze but that was it…

Vulcuran: Time to return the favor

DMaster:: You take a slash motion but he sidesteps your swing

DMaster:: pirate: “haha!”

Vulcuran: shit

DMaster:: he quickly thrusts

Vulcuran: dodge

DMaster:: and cuts….

DMaster:: the air wide open, an absolute miss

Vulcuran: I will swing

DMaster:: after your dodge, you return attack to quick and you almost drop your sword

DMaster:: you use your turn to get a grip on your sword

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: (rolled a 2)

Vulcuran: well that happens

DMaster:: he gives you a weird look, and thrusts again

Vulcuran: sidestep

DMaster:: you move just in time as you hear a “sha ching” off your armor

Vulcuran: swing at him again

DMaster:: The pirate does not get in defensive stance quick enough… you hit his shoulder and digs in about 5-6 inches… YIKES

Vulcuran: give the sword a twist

DMaster:: Fear and pain develop on his face, blood squirts from the wound

DMaster:: “ARGHH!”

DMaster:: he tries to thrust with his free hand

Vulcuran: okay

DMaster:: you dodge it and kick his hand releasing the sword from him

Vulcuran: okay I will take another swing

DMaster:: he rolls to the side and falls down and gets back up again.

DMaster:: you graze his wounded arm as he dodged our slice

Vulcuran: shit

DMaster:: he grabs a dagger and tries a stab at you with blood pouring from his arm

Vulcuran: parry

DMaster:: You block it with your sword, he stumbles a bit

Vulcuran: swing at him again

DMaster:: Slicing open his other arm he drops the dagger…

DMaster:: He falls to the ground and falls face first into the dirt – a pool of blood quickly forming underneath him

DMaster:: The battle is winding down as most of the Pirates are throwing their

swords on the ground / water

DMaster:: PLUGER: Is screaming for the pirates to get on shore and lay on their stomach!

DMaster:: “GET OVER THERE NOW SCUM!!!!!!!!!!!!”

DMaster:: Hes grabbing them and whipping them onto the ground…

DMaster:: HELLO!

Vulcuran: Okay

DMaster:: You hear noises coming from the hut

DMaster:: slamming noises they are trying to get out

DMaster:: the battle here is won… no pirate is standing, alive or dead

Vulcuran: Pluger send some men over to the hut

DMaster:: PLUGER: “YES M’LORD!”

DMaster:: PLUGER: “ETAN & YARTER over with Vulcarian NOW!”

Vulcuran: Let’s go to the hut

DMaster:: the three of you run over there, and you se the door halfway ripped up

and frantic women slamming stuff agaisnt the door to open it.

The door has a board barring the door from being opened

Vulcuran: men we need to hold that board in place

Vulcuran: we can’t let them out yet

DMaster:: they grab the rest of the door and board and they lean up against it

DMaster:: Women in hysterics and crying and yelling is coming from the hut

Vulcuran: hold it as long as you can

DMaster:: They eventually stop pushing and hitting the doors

Vulcuran: Pluger are any of their men hurt

Vulcuran: bad

DMaster:: Pluger has the men dragging up dead bodies and tying up the prisoners

Vulcuran: how many dead

DMaster:: men hurt?

DMaster:: PLUGER: Still counting sire

Vulcuran: well I want the total soon because we cannot keep the women in there for long

DMaster:: After a while the hut is more quiet with sobs and sniffles

DMaster:: Pluger walks over to you:

DMaster:: M’Lord can we talk…

Vulcuran: Yes Pluger

DMaster:: he walks you over to the shore… he lined up the dead…

Vulcuran: How many woman are there

DMaster:: 20 dead, 10 Injured badly and 5 surrendering

DMaster:: PLUGER: well it sure was a bunch

Vulcuran: well it lowered their number

DMaster:: PLUGER: “well we did what we came here to do! Once again you

you are victorious!”

Vulcuran: we haven’t finished here yet

Vulcuran: we need to find the leader of these people

DMaster:: in the meantime Krinus walks up KRINUS: M’Lord… May I take a small boat of 6 men

Vulcuran: Yes you may but be careful the first sign of trouble and I want

DMaster:: KRINUS: Yes M’Lord, thank you!

Vulcuran: go bring me back some good news

DMaster:: Krinus runs over to the boat where 6 other men are waiting,

they begin to bring down a boat and set it up…

Vulcuran: Pluger we got another problem what do we do about the women

DMaster:: PLUGER: I don’t know… I mean this was their family here…

man I just dont know… I guess let them get with their dead.

Vulcuran: if we finished off their men they will surely not survive by themselves

About 17 years ago she had a nervous breakdown and was ordered to relax by physicians. She attempted to relax at home but it always resulted in her working hard and breaking down again. She was a mental and emotional mess.

Much to her dismay (and her husbands) she was ordered to Summerville Islands for a years worth of relaxation. As expected She was not accompanied by her husband, he was twice as busy now with her on vacation. The first few weeks on Summerville Isles were entertaining and relaxing but quickly became boring. Despite her plea’s for her husband to visit and/or for her to go back to work, she was left alone for a good 2 months and the boredom grew intense.

Catalina met up with a mixed (generic name for mixed race) named Narilhald. He is from what this new Elven clan call Illume (pronounced ill-loom-may – Short for the Illuminated), who are Austian Elves who have been banned from their society. There has been a sect of Augustian Elves that do not abide by the rules of the Augustian traditions. They have been kicked out and they have formed their own society and culture that is much more relaxed in customs. They are called “the disbanned” by the Augustian Elves but everyone else calls them the Illume.

Catalina was there for 2 months when she met Narilhald. Narilhald was on the Isle helping build a new Inn. He persued Catalina for 2 weeks as he extended his stay indefinately. Eventually they became romantic as Catalina gave into his advances. Her boredom was relieved and a romance started, and she was unsure whether she was in love, or loved the fact she had something (or someone) to do. Their romance lasted for less than a month and one day it came to an abrupt end…Catalina found out she is pregnant, and Narilhald disappared once he got word. The woman was devastated that A. she was pregnanat with a baby (she had no kids prior to this) that wasn’t her husbands B. Narilhald disappeared and never said goodbye or anything and C. what was she going to do with this child?

The boredom that she felt because she was away from her husband, turned into releif because he had no time to visit. This allowed her to hide the pregnancy from her husband. She hid the baby the best she could and than requested more isolation as her stomach grew. She hatched a plan that will allow her to give birth safely and have someone to take the child. There was a chamber maid she took into confidence in her place of isolation. This maid was named Josaphina and she was looking for a child because her and her husband could not have children. She thanked Animax and realized that this was a devine work. A couple in love that could not have children met up with a woman who accidently got pregnant and needed to find a home for her child.

Catalina had her child, a healthy baby boy. His name was Chance. The maid and her husband raised the child as their own for 12 years with little to no issues. Then Catalina left Summer Isle, and went back to work. Within a few months she was found dead in a horse stall from an apparent heart attack. Chance ‘s true mother is dead. Word got back to Josaphina, and she decided to wait to tell her child about the adoption.

The Summerville Isles rarely has storms, and has a very uncommon temperature pattern. 90% of the time it is blue skies with the highes around 80 degrees and a low of 65 at night. The other 10% is usually just a passing rain shower, or the rainy season which is around January of every year and it lasts for 2-3 weeks. When a storm comes, it is extremely fierce and violent… it is also very unpredictable.The husband was the Isles main fisherman who supplied the many Inn’s with fish for their customers. A storm suddenly came up out of no where over the tall peaks of the Isles and capsized his boat. He was never heard from again.

The maid sold her late husbands business, which was almost worthless at the time but it was enough to get them through a few years. They started to have finacial issues, she was unable to make enough to pay her rent. Once Chance turned 16, Britney of Camerondale, who owns a beautiful Inn on Summerville Isles took them in. The Maid will work for Britney and she will offer room and food. Chance also worked as a maintenance man / janitor to help out. Britney became fairly close to the Maid and her son.

Chance is 17 years old and has been training with a retired 5 star guard in sword and bow. They train almost everyday. Each day he trains with the 5 star he gains 50 XP. He has trained roughly 250 days. 5000 XP is for his disposal.Chance has become the head of maintenance and Janitorial for the Sunset Inn (britney’s Inn). He does projects to improve the hotel, runs the “maids” so to speak. He does very well and is very dedicated to Britney for many reasons included the fact she saved them earlier in his life and they are involved.

Britney who is 40 years old, has taken a liking to Chance. She has seduced him and they have a rondevous at least once a week. They try to be very secretive, and they meet up in some lofts around the Inn, on a secluded area of beach or in Britney’s chambers.She is a widow of her late husband Thorin. She is not looking for any relationships. But they are very close with the ideals that this is not going to go much further.Britney bought Chance a very expensive long sword for his birthday. It is a bluesteel longsword that has an ornate handle and a soft glowing blue blade. Josaphina has an inkling that this is happening but does not want to say anything because she can’t afford to live anywhere else. Britney has also bought Chance other expensive gifts as well.Chance gets up around 6AM, runs on the beach, than trains with the 5 star until 9AM. He than starts work where he will work on a project, assist in cleaning up.
