So I recently had my first session of Swashbucklers of the Seven Skies as a DM and I think it went quite well and because of that I'd like to tell you about it.

First off, the characters in this adventure; (This music is appropriate for now. Enjoy. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV0wPBYDQ6Y))


Captain Tobias Bridge (also known as Captain Rob): Laid-back, rude, adventurous and chivalrous with a love for money and fame. Captain Rob is dashing and handsome as well as being the captain of the The Ophelia and a former shiphand for the Dread Pirate Redu, a title for which he hopes to claim for himself. He is venturing onto the cloud-island of Crail in hopes of 'borrowing' a hidden codex for a coded map that has fallen into his possession. Rumors tell that Lord Tinos has one stored in his estate.

The Hero. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheHero)


Alexei Virrakison: Uptight, honorable and very, very touchy. Alexei is a former Colronan Musketeer and is now wanted by the Crown. Due to a....misunderstanding..... Alexei is out for vengeance for the death of his fiancée Victoria the day before they were due to wed. Victoria's father helped him to escape Colrona and he owes him a life-debt. He also possesses the gift of the Merhorse. Alexei is in Crail pursuing the identity of his wife's killer. Lord Tinos may know of this.

The Lancer. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheLancer)

Symon 'The Berserker' Sharn: If you asked this man mountain what was best in life he would answer by screaming loudly, brandishing a hand-cannon and then breaking something in the vicinity. He would then say it was freedom. Symon was born in prison and passed around several orphanages until he became an offender all on his own. He is finally out of prison and loving the freedom that it brings, however his freedom may also be his downfall as his love of it is never-ending. He is stuck on Crail after his last ticket for passage was lost in a card game against a Basilisk. Prehaps Lord Tinos possesses the deed to another that he could acquire.

The Big Guy. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheBigGuy)

Casius Markus The Bastardous: An Alchemist and Koldun of immense power but with VERY little self control. Casius is out for power and as much of it as he can get. He possesses the gifts of the Dragon, Thunderbird, Griffin, Pegasus and Unicorn. Very dangerous in battle and even worse when given time to prepare. He is currently on the cloud-island of Viridia hunting down some rare alchemical materials.

The Smart Guy. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheSmartGuy)


Emily Spideri: Emily is one of the most feared Imperial Spiders, elite assassins, in the Seven Skies. She is beautiful but deadly in her knowledge of the killing arts and has been raised since birth simply for this path in life. Her one foible however is her love of drink. She has recently been ordered to take out a contract on Lord Tinos in Crail, hopefully nothing will get in the way.

Murderous Sociopathic Jerkass With A Heart Of Gold. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/JerkWithAHeartOfGold) (Most certainly NOT the Chick.)



The rest shall be updated after our next session. Any thoughts on the characters so far?
