Your life as a sailor on The Salty Dog hasn’t been easy, but it’s not been without its good points. There’s been song, camaraderie, and all the loot you can smuggle along with the hardships. But a sad day has dawned for your crew; your beloved Captain fell ill in your last port and died before you could get him to a good cleric.
His last request of the crew was to bring his body home for burial on the family plot.
This game will be great if you like Pirates of the Caribbean, Or Flag Means Death, Pirates.
Players should build level 3 characters ahead.
Use point-buy or standard array for stat generation.
Any officially published content for classes, feats, ancestries, etc is fine. Permanent flying features excluded. (Non-official content needs to be run by me before the game.)
Assume that as adventures you’ve been able to purchase any armor, standard weapon, or standard adventuring equipment worth no more than 150gp a piece.
For spellcasters: assume that you have the material components needed to cast the spells you’ve chosen.
You can pick 1 magic item or weapon of up to uncommon rarity. https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items
If you have any backstory notes, please feel free to let me know. Please send me a copy of (or link to) your character sheet at least 2 days before we play.
Please make a character who is working on a smuggler’s ship and let me know what your role on the ship will be. This will be first-come, but I won’t consider your choice official until you’ve sent in your character sheet. If none of these roles sound good to you, please reach out.
Sailing Master (Navigation), Bunting Tosser (Lookout), Lead Gunner, Powder Monkey, Surgeon, Cook.
This session will be especially good for new players.
