Re: Quest: The Final Frontier

[Orion Flame-eye]

Orion picked up his axe and swung it at the old mast, it smashed instantly and Orion caught it in his left hand before it hit the ground. " Draylon, help Leroy with the sail, I need to put up this mast first."

[Draylon Redtip]

"Aye, Orion." Draylon took the sail, and unsheathed his dagger to cut it. He made a pattern somewhat reminiscent of a lop-sided trapeziod. He Cut some holes in it, and ran a long coil of rope through them. He tied one end to the sail.

[Orion Flame-eye]

Orion placed the mast and helped Draylon. " We should be able to leave first thing in the morning." Orion said as he looked at the sky. It was almost night.

[Draylon Redtip]

"Then let us all get a good night's sleep." Draylon said. He cleared some dirt away on the ground, and soon was asleep.

[Leroy Ridran]

"I never sleep." Leroy said proudly. He stood up, against some planks. Within a few minutes, he was fast asleep. Standing up.

[Orion Flame-eye]

OOC- We are on a beach, theres no dirt, accept for sand.
BIC- Orion took the leftover cloth and went to sleep on them in a cabin.

[Leroy Ridran]

The next day Leroy awoke to the rising sun in his eyes. All the others remained fast asleep. He called out "Alright everyone, time to wake up. It is time to get this bucket of splinters sailing!"

[Draylon Redtip]

OOC: I walked off the beach. My charecter isn't a seaman at all, so he was afraid of high tide.
BIC:Draylon lifted his head. "It's not even light out," he moaned. "I want more sleep."

[Leroy Ridran]

"Shut up and get moving." Leroy said sharply to Draylon.

[Draylon Redtip]

"Some folk have no respect for other's needs." Draylon muttered, as he stocked his rope belt full of supplies. He took some string, and made a small eyepatch for himself.

[Orion Flame-eye]

" Hmphhh... I just checked the ship's supplies. We'll starve if we dont get anything. I'll just taker a moment." Orion grabbed a dagger from his pouch went into the woods and came back with two deers over his shoulders. " This should be enough meat.." Orion said as he dropped them into bags and left quickly for town to buy things. Orion was a quick person at doing anything and soon came back after ten minutes with bread, potatoes, herbs and spices and all other things. He also brought four barrels of water. " This should be enough for three of us." Orion told them as he rolled everything inside the ship's kitchen. Orion flipped out a ladle from his bag of cooking supplies. " You and Draylon sail, I'l cook breakfast." Orion said as he made pancakes.

[Leroy Ridran]

"Oh well, about that. I have never sailed before." Leroy said sadly.

[Orion Flame-eye]

" New plan, Draylon cook I'll sail. I think I have an idea of how this works." Orion opened the sails, pulled the anchor up, took out an oar, passed one to Leroy and started rowing. " Until we reach deap water. Right now its all shallow."

[Leroy Ridran]

"Fine. I will have you know though, I am not one fore hard labor." Leroy starts rowing.

[Draylon Redtip]

Draylon took out a long worm, and impaled it in his dagger. He tied a length of thread around it, and tied that to a long pole. He lowered it into the water until it was fully submerged. He wiggled his line, and soon had a bite. He lifted it slowly, setting the hook. He evenualy had played a large Bonefish up. He took it, and chopped its head off swiftly with his dagger. He then gutted the fish, and tossed the scraps to his pet, who devoured them. He cooked the fish on a range, and cut it into equal portions. He distributed them evenly to the crew.

[Leroy Ridran]

"Thank you for the...food." Leroy ate it slowly.

Given XP for cooking...

[Orion Flame-eye]

Oreo, Orion's wolf was in his cabin, busy eating scraps of pork. Orion had left him in there incase he messed up the kitchen. Orion let his oar rest in the water for awhile as he felt a fish go right above it. The shadow showed it was in the center of the oar. Orion flipped the oar into the air and the fish hit the deck, Orion picked it up, did almost the same as Draylon but gave the scraps for his pet later and put the rest of the fish into a bag.

[Draylon Redtip]

Draylon saw Orion flip the fish up into the boat. "My, you're going to need to teach me how to do that." he said. Draylon finished his fish, and put it next to the range. When Leroy had finished eating, he took his plate and stacked it on top. He did the same with Orion's plate. Draylon got some rope, and tied a bailing bucket to the end. He lowered it into the water. He pulled it up, and rinsed the plates off.

[Leroy Ridran]

"What can I do to help?" Leroy said, still gently rowing.

You have both been given 5 more xp.

[Draylon Redtip]

"Keep rowing, ye scurvy dogs!" Draylon had stopped cooking, and was trying out the role of "Pirate" with his eye-patch. He was yelling all manner of threats and insults, such as:"Stop moaning, ye dimsal landlubbers!", and "Put yer backs into it, or i'll kehaul yew right this very second!". He was enjoying himself immensely.

[Leroy Ridran]

"Stuff it Draylon." Leroy said.

[Draylon Redtip]

Draylon deftly tied Leroy's hands to his oar. "Now, do you want to stop rowing? Well you don't have a choice!"

[Leroy Ridran]

Leroy spun around, aiming the wide oar at Draylon's face. It would hurt.

[Draylon Redtip]

OOC: If it's an oar, then that's a physical impossibility. Oars are the ones that are attached to the boat.

[Orion Flame-eye]

OOC- They arent always attached. Sometimes people just row to push off and then pull it in.

BIC- " If you two start hitting yourselves this boat will come wrecked and we will all die." Orion left the two and went into the kitchen to marinate some pork.
