[OOC] Keratia: Blade Maiden’s Exploits

[Lucius Cypher]

OoC here!

[Expolar]

Yes for the OOC and thank you for the new thread for this adventure!!!

Since Caeda has been on The Sea Wolf for some time now, are there any names or anything else of the crew that she would be aware of?

[Lucius Cypher]

@Expolar

Well there’s obviously the captain and his first mate, Ashbrand and Azure Wainwright. Ashbrand mainly focuses on operating his ship, so its Azure you’ve mostly been talking to in regards to your passage here. There’s also the ships quartermaster and chef Buggsy, a bugbear of all things with a knack for cooking. Nice enough guy but he’s got no time for picky eaters. Than there’s the master-at-arms aka the guy who makes sure everyone’s gear is ready if there’s trouble. You can go to him to buy and trade weapons and such. And lastly there’s the cabin boy Sticky, some kid who you’re pretty sure has a crush on you. At the very least he’s very open to sharing his meals with you, considering that everyone usually gets an equal portion of ration during meal times.

[Expolar]

Thanks for the answers!!!

Also who would Caeda be sparing with since she would ask anyone nearby if they were willing to volunteer? Would it be random crew members or someone you mentioned in your above post? Since she doesn't always spar, it would likely be just 1 to 3 people that she would go back to request another sparing match.

[Lucius Cypher]

@Expolar

Most likely random crew members, though Sticky would gladly volunteer when he has time. However he’s young and inexperienced in combat, so you can defeat him easily. He does his best though and sometimes he can do some cunning things.

[Expolar]

So I don't want to just roll a dice assuming what the skill check is without you asking me to roll for the specific skill. But if the skill check seems simple enough to assume, would you be okay if I made the roll?

I ask because I was just going to roll a History check to see how much of the Majadan Empire that Caeda knows about.

[Lucius Cypher]

Yeah with that roll, the best you can remember is that the Majadan Empire is one of the older nations in the world, a fact you know because literally anyone who comes from the empire will let you know. They’ve always had problems with their southern neighbors for whatever reason they’ll need to justify their wars. Very militant.

[Expolar]

Out of curiosity, do you have a map of Keratia?

@Lucius Cypher
Hi Lucius,

It's been awhile and life stuff has been up and down for me, sorry for not mentioning anything and keeping you in the dark. I have a tendency to have my attention locked and focused on certain things (like work) that other things don't really appear in my radar as often then they should for me to do them. But I wanted ask if its possible to continue this RP. I still feel the interest as I remember playing as Caeda and as a player wanting to explore the world. If anything, just ping me to help reminder. But I suppose that is up to you if you still have the time and interest to continue the RP. I just wanted to ask what your thoughts were before I try making a post in the IC.

[Lucius Cypher]

Fo sho, you’ve played with me before and you ought to know I go truant about stuff like RP more often than I care to admit. Continue on whenever you wish, I’m down to clown so long as you don’t mind me when I’m being neglectful.

[Expolar]

Just in case,
Here is a Perception check of 15 for Caeda looking out into the ocean's surface during her time on the night watch.

[Expolar]

During Caeda's time on the ship, would she have met anyone else who was planning to step off the ship once arriving in the Majadan Empire or was native from there?

[Lucius Cypher]

No one seems to mention being native there, and only one mentioned having ever lived there for any notable amount of time. Additionally their stop at the Empire is just a quick refuel/resupply as heir primary destination is Doros to the south. It’s cheaper to get supplies in Majadan, but more lucrative to sell goods in Doros.

[Lucius Cypher]

Nito. Roll perception please.

[Expolar]

Perception check to see passing shadow

[Expolar]

Looking at the pixie's wing, how badly damaged is it? Since she on the ground, I'm guessing she can't fly. But can she natural heal it over time or will it need some magical healing?

[Lucius Cypher]

With just simple observation, you can see that the damage is quite sever. Not only is the wing’s webbing itself torn apart, but the frame of the wings are notably damaged and even bleeding, but in very small quantities. You’ll need to roll a medicine check to determine how long it’ll take to heal, if it will at all.

[Expolar]

Medicine check: 15

I'm not sure how much Azure can do as the first mate, but is there some doctor on the ship that Caeda could go to to help treat the pixie's injury?

[Lucius Cypher]

The pixies wings are more than damages: this is the equivalent of breaking someone’s legs by tearing tendons and shattering bones. If the pixie does not get proper medical treatment, either mundane or magical, her wings will not heal right and she’ll never be able to fly again.

The closest thing to a doctor is the ship’s chef. He also doubles as the ship’s chaplain and has training from the church of Gusstha covers basic injuries one might receive while operating a ship, but you’re pretty certain that he’d never receive training on how to fix a pixie’s wings.
