# [[004_20201206 The Clovis Concord vs The Revelry]] ## Session Summary We got woken up in the middle of the night when [[Lieutenant Commander Voskiir Larth]] boarded our ship, asking us to give up [[Captain Three Earrings]] or be boarded. A couple of attempts were made to talk to him: [[Dillyu]] pled for mercy, [[Heidi Axebeard]] attempted to tell Larth that CTE had died in [[Palma Flora]], [[Lira]] asked him if he would help us get to Palma Flora if we gave up CTE, despite discussions that we would be trying to lie to him to say that CTE had died, and CTE appeared to join the fight and yelled to Larth to take her and leave her crew alone. But Larth did not yield. So we killed him. Afterwards, we continued to head for [[Sharkfeather Abyss]]. We told CTE that [[Dajarkal]] had been behaving suspiciously. Hearing this, Dajarkal attempted to leave the ship, but [[Ora]]'s arrow maimed her and stopped her from jumping overboard. Upon questioning Dajarkal, she revealed that she had been hired by the Concord (though she didn't know who they were) to report the whereabouts of the ship. She'd been paid 100 gp, which she'd mostly spent attempting to find and protect her brother. ^summary ## Housekeeping Ora - Arrows are supposed to be tracked, but I'll make it so that you just recover them if you're just using them normally. - For spells, it will work the same way: spellcasters will have a component pouch and don't need random things like a feather or gum, unless the spell specifies a component with a certain gold value. - You've got a bit more gold than you thought - there was a part in character creation you skipped Boris - When you attack as a bonus action, you don't add your modifier. # Recap ![[003_20201129 The Wavechaser#^summary]] # Strong start [[Lieutenant Commander Voskiir Larth]] boards [[The Wavechaser]] and starts attacking unless players attack [[Captain Three Earrings]] # Scenes - [x] [[Captain Three Earrings]] makes a plea for the players to side with them and hides - [x] [[Lieutenant Commander Voskiir Larth]] comes on board with 8 of his crew, refusing to listen to players - [x] [[Dillyu]] makes an appeal to Larth to spare him because he didn't know he was working for pirates - [x] [[Captain Three Earrings]] joins the fight - [x] [[Lieutenant Commander Voskiir Larth]] and his crew avoid [[Dajarkal]] - [x] The capture of either Larth or Three Earrings - [ ] * Boris finds a dodecahedron and touches it somehow, explaining how from now on, he will no longer belong to [[ttrpgs/The Slayers Five/Gruumsh]] but to [[ttrpgs/The Slayers Five/The Luxon]] for his primal path. # Secrets and Clues - [ ] **War begins.** A war has broken out between the [[Dwendalian Empire]] and [[ttrpgs/The Slayers Five/Xhorhas]].
