Azlum Slave Bargaining

July 3rd Dusk

The rain picks up across the deck of the ship.

Earlier Sparticus and Mugabee had broken out 3 pens of humans, the 150 freed slaves were left earlier on the shore to the west with Mulan and the Dogs. Mugabe animated corpses and started a riot so they managed to load up the slaves and escape with them in the chaos.

As the last of the freed slaves make their way into the forest to camp, they start the boat slowly towards Azlum.

There is a sudden storm and the pilot is washed overboard…

The goblin bobs around in the water..when a sea serpent is seen approaching!

Fearing that none of them can pilot the boat with out the goblin, MUGABU fearlessly dives in.

Sparticus vainly tries to TK the goblin out of harms way but fails his strike rolls instead throwing the goblin into the water a few times like bait.

Mugabe grabs the goblin heroicaly hawling him like a spider on water, as fast as he can.
He gets to the side of the ship before the SERPENT ATTACKS!!!

Mugabe rolls a 1 to parry, and stick his arm in the serpents mouth. It starts biting down..

By this point Caldor has opened up with his cannon but the serpent is only hit a few times before battle take cover behind the side of the ship. Caldor is desperately trying to keep his power armor stable on the heaving deck as the two thrash around in the water just near the other side..

Caldor jumps into the serpents mouth, and x4 plasma missles it.

But not before it bites off Mugabees arm… The goblin is saved however.

The blast vaporizes most of its head, Mugabee escapes but Caldors suits suffers 200SDC burn damage, all fancy sensors are out and radios is at 1/2 raNGE AND CRACKLY.

Before returning to Azlum to seek out the Professor

Drago, Sparticus, Caldor, and Mugabee dock their stolen ship in Azlum. The ship is named “Dream of Mara” Based on whats written on the side in redish paint..

NPCs of Note on the Docks:

Slick Willie (boat salesman by slave pens)

Neeku (goblin pilot of Dream of Mara)

Drago remembers roughly what Mara looks like… but she escaped during the fight.

Sparticus is wearing a heavy cloak that he stole from a slave cage to conceal his features.

After some poor piloting rolls they arrive back in Azlum.

Drago and Sparticus use their connections to get a new pilot since the goblin one is barely functional.

Sparticus meets up with a gang the White fists who are beating an orc on the side of the docks. HE beats it too and they tell him they fight the Black Fangs, an orc gang.

Sparticus tries to get the two gangers Shaak and Raak to get their boys ready and get rescued when they leave. He tried bribing them a 300gp coin but took it back.

Raak gets sparticus a drunk pilot who he rejects and tells Raak they all can no longer come since they are fails.

Mugabee went off to the slums and found 4 1st Level Goblin Vagabonds to follow him

Expenses:

Drago has 300k Azlum from selling a tw cannon
-100 credit dock fee -100 cred orc stick -200 fees?
-120000 for 150 Duhk slaves (bargain price of 800 each)
-10000 13 pilot fee
169600cr Azlum left

Caldor bought 5 blob slaves for 100 cr each -500cr
all but one escaped. Hes holding on to that one for dear life while it whines about needing to be emersed.

Drago bribes a Overlord and gets a new Pilot named 13 for the ship.

13 is an ABM Mechanoid Brain!

He keeps trying to hyp suggest Drago into finding him a new chasis since his is damaged and leeking. Drago currently has failed enough where he wants to help.

But they tenses square off with Drago saying dont try that AGAIN ill fix you but you just piloe the boat.

13 asked for 10k up front with x3 (20k more ) combat pay. HE has been paid 10k and is piloting the ship into the maintenance lane where they are supposed to tug a damaged cruiseliner ship back to Dracona (according to thes hippig manifest sparticus found).

They get the ship connected, and start towing east…
Noone on the cruisliner seems to notice a difference in the Tugboat staff, at least for now.
