QUEST: The Legend of the Captain Dread

[David G. Fairfax]

David sat on the pier, next to the Guild funded Galleon. He knew today was going to be a long day, so he tried to enjoy the morning by fishing a little.

[Margath Lurzaneck]

Anthony walked towards the pier, spotting David. "Hey." the hero said as he stood beside David, watching the ocean.

[Selena Darkheart]

"Hello, David. Margath." Selena said, walking down the length if the pier.

[Maxi Muay]

Maxi waited at the start of the pier as he marveled at the Galleon ship. He after all was used to traveling in small fishing boats, but this was in a different league.

Finally realising that the heroes at the end of the pier were waiting he jogged down and introduced himself as he was new to the Guild and was undertaking his first quest right now.

[David G. Fairfax]

"Glad to see you all could make it" David said as he got up "Shall we sail?" he said as walked up the ramp to the ship, the others soon followed. As an eery creek echoed around the ship, it began to move, off into the unknown.

[Thanks that would be nice ;D]

[Ellen Grahft]

Ellen sat queasily near the railings of the ship. This was her first time upon a ship, and it was proving to be more of an ordeal than she had expected. She huddled up, and gripped her spear close to her.

She looked out at the others who were partaking this quest. Of them all she recognized only David, and not being one to go up to people she didn't know, she was stuck sitting against the railing, nervously spinning her spear.

((Sorry about taking so long to post. Hectic week was hectic.))

[Selena Darkheart]

"So, exactly where are we going, David? It would be nice to know where we're going, you know..." Selena said, leaning against the rail, watching the waves crash against the side of the ship.

[David G. Fairfax]

David shoveled through his pocket and pulled out a map. "If we follow those bearings we should get to an Isl-" suddenly the fog began to rise, and the sound of cannon fire filled the air "Shit!"

[Pirates]

A large ship appeared on the starboard side, not Dread's ship, but a really big one, one pirate through a hook over at the Galleon, tons of Pirates began swinging on to the ship breaking everything in their way, soon the ship became overwhelmed.

[Maxi Muay]

Maxi immediately grabbed a hanging rope and swung himself across to the pirate ship as there were less pirates on this side.
Being so used to fighting using martial arts Maxi forgot new pirates did not think about what they were doing before attacking viciously.

One pirate yelled at Maxi from behind him, this was stupid as he gave away his position. Maxi quickly ducked down onto one foot and whipped around his other foot which caught against the pirates shin. Jumping back up Maxi stood over the cowering pirate on the wooden deck and stamped on his neck, immediately killing him.

'I need to find something to protect myself against these swords!' thought Maxi in his head. Opening a small trapdoor located on the floorboards Maxi jumped down and searched the small room.
It stank of alcohol and damp wood.
Searching through a nearby cabinet Maxi managed to find four large iron hoops, he clasped them onto his wrists and shins.
'These should stop swords from harming me' said Maxi with a smile.

[Selena Darkheart]

Selena stood up, picking up her bow, and drawing an arrow. "That was... somewhat surprising." She said, drawing the bow back and firing point blank into a Pirates head. "David! We need to get on their ship. Either we draw them all back onto their ship, or we just cut the ropes holding our ship to theirs, and steal theirs!" She said, running back to the ships quarters to grab her pole axe.

[David G. Fairfax]

Quickly scanning the situation, and the damage that had already been done to their ship, he came to an easy conclusion. "Stealing their ship sounds nice" David said as he jumped over to the deck of the Pirate ship. A pirate rushed him, David ducked and threw a fireball, setting the Pirate, and a few others, on fire. Then David realized something. "Get off the ship!" He shouted to the Heroes still remaining on the Guild Ship.

[Maxi Muay]

Maxi scrambled out of the small room he jumped down into and back onto the main deck of the ship. The soft wind was picking up slightly as he noticed many pirates attacking on the Guild funded Galleon, then he heard David yell for the remaining Heroes to board this ship instead. Unfortunately Maxi had no time to see why he had made this decision as he noticed two pirates swinging their blood stained swords and charging at full speed towards himself.

Flinging himself upwards Maxi managed to grab onto a hanging piece of wood and kick both of his feet out. Each foot made contact with the two pirates noses which instantly made gruesome crunching sound as their noses broke. Blood spurted everywhere as they yelled out in agony clutching their faces. Maxi simply rolled the two off board and into the water as they were in too much pain to fight back.

[Maxi Muay]
