==Setup==

Tasked with finding the ''Goblin’s Luck'', a merchant freighter, five intrepid misfits take off aboard the ''Invidian Fortune''.

Last night, in the fog around Freeport, a fast packet dropped off a package with a note to only open it at sea. Of course, it was only realized at sea that the package was not meant for the ''Fortune'' at all. The ''Goblin’s Luck'' was part of a series of nine ships built in the same shipyard to the same specifications. And guess who is on another one?

Any sailor recognizes the sister ships to their own; the ''Goblin’s Luck'' left port only a few hours before the Fortune. Hopefully, the packet was the only ship to mistake their identity!

Unfortunately, many others seek the ''Goblin’s Luck'' as well. Most notable of these are the vile minions of Nava, the Turtle Queen. Whatever the ''Luck'' bears, Her Majesty will stop at nothing to get them.

The gods have not graced the world with their direct involvement since time immemorial. However, talk is that the mythic truce weakens because of their lust and ambition…and how this bears upon the ''Luck'', none know. But there are rumors…

Even now, the god of mischief has plagued all attempts to capture or sink the ''Goblin’s Luck''.

As if capturing the Luck was not already hard enough due to her fleet seaworthiness and great command, the ship’s name comes from the expression, “A goblin’s luck is a man’s misfortune”. The superstitious (and defamers of goblins) believe that goblins only profit at the expense of other races. The ''Goblin’s Luck'' has been very fortunate indeed the past years. Her captain and owners have earned a small fortune in trade and have managed to defeat any and all pirate attacks against her.

But rival merchants grumble that they’ve been cheated by ''Goblin’s Luck'' in unspecified (and unnatural) ways. Pirates tell tales of mysterious disasters befalling any ship who dared to take ''Goblin’s Luck''. Coincidence? Sour grapes? Maybe. But the ''Goblin’s Luck'' has a reputation. And unless you are the type who is rich enough or powerful enough to ignore popular opinion, you don’t want it known that you are working to help that cursed ship. You’ll find yourself losing friends around the docks and gaining enemies in town.

Goblin’s Luck indeed!

'''Description.''' Like most halflings in Freeport, Ace just sort of showed up one day and never left. It wasn’t long before he fell in with the Syndicate … er, that is, the “Halfling Benevolent Association.” During his five years as a member, Ace moved up quickly from mere apprentice to the rank of journeyman, focusing his studies on rhetoric and logic, especially as applied to economics and politics.

He is now at the part of his studies when he must take a “Pilgrimage,” an adventure in which he must gain notable wealth or reputation to prove his worthiness for higher advancement. Conveniently, this also gives him an excuse to move around and vary his associations, which in turn makes it harder for the Brotherhood of the Yellow Sign to lay hands on him — it seems they want a word …

==Captain Daniella “Dani” Danger==

'''ASPECTS'''
* '''High Concept.''' Captain of the Invidian Fortune
* '''Trouble.''' Curse of the Invidian Fortune
* '''Others.''' And I Only Am Escaped Alone To Tell Thee; Raised in the Rigging; The Ship That Made The Kraken Run In Less Than Twelve Fathoms

'''SKILLS'''

* '''Fair (+2).''' Dexterity, Charisma
* '''Average (+1).''' Constitution, Intelligence
* '''Mediocre (+0).''' Strength

'''STUNTS'''
* '''Indomitable (Wisdom).''' +2 to defend against social attacks specifically related to intimidation and fear.
* '''Right Place, Right Time. (Requires Indomitable)''' You seem to always be in a safe spot, without moving in any obvious way. You may use WIS to defend against physical attacks, and may also use it to move or take cover (so long as you merely saunter; no sprints allowed). To the outside world, it appears that you are simply staying put and unfazed as gunfire and other attacks miss you by scant inches, or are picking up your undisturbed martini as the werewolf rushes past. Circumstance conspires to leave you undisturbed so long as your defense is not beaten.
* '''Death Defiance.''' If you are taken out in a physical conflict, you may spend a fate point to concede instead. If you do, you collect none of the usual fate points associated with conceding. Coincidence conspires to keep you alive, and you pass from the view of the other combatants (such as by dropping off a cliff, apparently failing to escape from an exploding building, or the like). You may re-enter play in any subsequent scene in as dramatic a fashion as you see fit, explaining to everyone how you survived. You return with all of your physical stress cleared and a single additional situation aspect lasting at least one scene to reflect the dangers you defied.

'''Description.''' A foreigner to these lands, Geneviève arrived on a year-long sea voyage from her native principality of Libre-Ville de la Mer as a member of the Foreign Consulate’s staff. The Consulate was sent by her Prince to this mysterious shore to encourage trade with her homeland, to provide assistance to the infrequent Libre-Villese ships that may pass through, and to be the official representative of the Prince to the Sea Lord of Freeport.

…And of course to spy on this foreign land and send reports back to the Prince. Freeport may not seem a place to attract the interest of such a faraway nation, but in the lands of Libre-Ville de la Mer, magic is unknown. Part of the Consulate’s duty is to find out more about this so-called “magic” and discover if such powers can be possessed by the Libre-Villese.

Geneviève was a younger daughter of a noble family who joined this expedition for adventure and to broaden her education and diplomacy skills. (Though her parents would be shocked at the sort of “court graces” they practice in Freeport.) She was only one of three members of the Consulate, and the Vice-Consul returned to their home city on a ship months ago with the first report. Now the Consulate consists of just the Consul and Geneviève. She works as a clerk, spy, researcher, negotiator, occasional bodyguard for the Consul here in Freeport. So far she’s found this place far more interesting than the dull Prince’s court back home and is in no hurry to leave.

When not in disguise, she always wears the tricorn hat that is the custom of her city and carries a fencing sabre (a finesse weapon). Despite learning the local dialect, she still speaks with a Libre-Villese accent which people find charming-to-amusing.

As for why she’d be involved with necromancers and cursed ships, once the Consul hears of a rumor about literal skeletons crewing a ship, he’d exclaim, “Sacré bleu! You must find zat magic ship and file a report for zee Prince!”

'''Description.'''Tuhm is a well-traveled able seaman. He has had a berth on many ships, from pinnaces to galleys to galleons. He has also survived many shipwrecks. Surprisingly, he is not viewed as a Jonah, but instead as a good luck charm.

==“Ulrich” Noxus Darque==
'''ASPECTS'''
* '''High Concept.''' Necromancer Servant of the God of Death
* '''Trouble.''' Forbidden Knowledge the Bane of Sanity
* '''Others.''' Chaplain of the Unrestful Bones, Dead Avenger Posing as Ship's Physician

'''SKILLS'''
* '''Good (+3).''' Charisma
* '''Fair (+2).''' Intelligence, Wisdom
* '''Average (+1).''' Dexterity, Constitution
* '''Mediocre (+0).''' Strength

'''STUNTS'''
* '''Necromancer.''' Necromancers wield the power of death itself, and are rightly feared throughout Freeport and beyond. You gain access to the “necromancy” and “curse” schools, and may select two spells from them. (Warning: Practicing necromancy is a capital offense in Freeport!)
* '''Accomplished Spellcaster.''' Select three spells from any schools you have access to, provided you have the prerequisite spells. (X2.)
* '''Unrest of the Dead.''' Being an undead soldier of the damned, you cannot die except by utter annihilation of the body. If you are taken out in a physical conflict, you can be presumed dead, but cannot actually perish. This stunt in no way mitigates the effects associated with the details of being taken out (buried, at the bottom of the sea, burned to a crisp, etc.). It also requires that one of your aspects marks your undead nature in some way.

'''SPELLS'''
* '''Animate Dead''' ''(Necromancy, Summoning, Cost, Persistent, Corrupting, Requires 2 other necromancy spells)'': You animate a nearby corpse (even if buried) into an animated skeleton or a zombie, to act as your ally. See rules for the Summoning keyword above. This spell is a major infraction.
* '''Cause Fatigue''' ''(Necromancy, Persistent)'': Choose a target in your current zone. Make an Overcome action, caster's Charisma vs. target's Constitution. On a successful casting, the target must mark off their highest-rated empty physical stress box; if you succeed with style, you gain a boost. If they have no unchecked physical stress boxes, this spell has no effect.
* '''Death's Chill''' ''(Necromancy, Cost, Corrupting, Requires Ghoul's Touch)'': An icy chill settles on the hearts of everyone in your zone. Make an attack, caster's Charisma vs. target's Constitution, against all creatures in your zone-friend or foe. This spell is a minor infraction.
** PC: They can act as they wish, provided they obey the spirit of the compel. They can avoid this by taking a 2-stress mental hit.
* '''Ghoul's Touch''' ''(Necromancy, Corrupting)'': Attack a target in your zone, caster's Charisma +2 vs. target's Intelligence, physical damage. This spell is a minor infraction.
* '''Grave's Reach''' ''(Necromancy, Cost, Corrupting, Requires Ghoul's Touch)'': Attack any target you can see, caster's Charisma +2 vs. target's Intelligence, physical damage. This spell is a minor infraction.
* '''Ill Fortune''' ''(Curse, Trickster, Persistent)'': You can affect the luck of another creature, causing it to suffer all manner of minor misfortunes. You can use Charisma (opposed by the target's Wisdom) to create an ''Ill Fortune'' advantage against anyone in your zone or an adjacent zone, provided you can see them and they can see you.
* '''Living Dead Minions''' ''(Necromancy, Summoning, Cost, Persistent, Corrupting, Requires Animate Dead and 2 other necromancy spells)'': You animate a nearby group of corpses (even if buried) into animated skeletons or zombies, to act as your allies. See rules for the Summoning keyword above. However, you create a number of minions equal to the number of shifts you achieve on a Mediocre (+0) difficulty overcome using Charisma (minimum 1). This spell is a major infraction.
* '''Living Dead Guardian''' ''(Necromancy, Summoning, Cost, Persistent, Corrupting, Requires Animate Dead and 2 other necromancy spells)'': You animate a nearby corpse (even if buried) into an animated zombie, to act as your personal valet. The body used must be "harvested", making use of time and/or money in order to find the best specimen. Often, casters seek hulking, monstrous, or special corpses. See rules for the Summoning keyword above. However, your ally is a Good (+3) Nameless NPC, and you may select two advantages from the summoning list, or three with the addition of a disadvantage. This spell is a major infraction.

'''Description.''' Noxus Darque used to be a simple librarian in an ancient library in Freeport. Unfortunately for him, librarians don’t make good adventurers, so as fate would have it, he accidentally unveiled a secret chamber which housed an ancient necromancy spellbook. Desiring to learn the secrets of the forbidden arts, especially due to the fact that any information about necromancy is suppressed. Noxus was able to practice and learn necromancy for several years, but his quest had caught up with him. After finally being found out, he was killed in the battle that followed.

However, he was contacted by the god of death after his passing. The god offered Noxus a second chance at life if he agreed to become his servant. Noxus agreed and on that night his body rose as a revenant.

Now 50 years later Noxus, now going by “Ulrich”, has been given an order to find the Goblin’s Luck (the god still refuses to deliberate as to why). Ulrich joined the crew due to his incredibly rare skill-set.

==The Invidian Fortune==

'''STUNTS'''
* '''Hidden Cargo Hold.''' Your vessel contains a small, very cunningly concealed cargo bay. You may actively oppose attempts to locate it using your Intelligence +2 versus the searchers’ Wisdom.

==House Rules==

===Dice Rolls===

Most rolls will be player-facing passive rolls. Even those calling for active opposition will be conducting with a static difficulty representing the NPC’s skills and stunts. Sometimes the GM will front-load opposition with the preemptive cost of a GM fate point. In rarer instances, invocations may come after the player’s turn so long as the additional difficulty does not require an amendment to any posts.

Players will handle their own dice rolls. We can use [http://www.orokos.com orokos.com] or some other. 4d3-8 is the standard code to reproduce Fate/Fudge dice results.

===Ship Rules===

====Ship Skills====
Ships are built like characters, having their own array of skills. All ships default at +0 in each of the following:
* '''Cannons''' — the guns. A higher score indicates more mounting positions, etc. A ship must have a stunt devoted to guns in order to make use of the skill. And an aspect must be created ('''''Open Her Broadside!''''') to justify a firing position. If only a bow-mounted swivel gun is used, this skill caps to +0 despite the ship's actual skill level. Many guns requires more crew to man. The skill is also capped by the number of unchecked crew stress boxes. The various types of cannon shot may also justify certain types of attacks and whether or not crew stress or ship consequences may absorb damage (grape shot versus crew, chain shot versus sails, etc.). The Cannons skill can never exceed a ship's Size skill by more than 1 point. Actions: attack
* '''Sea-worthiness''' — handling, maneuvering, overall ship-shapiness. Actions: overcome, create an advantage, certain types of defend (versus "attacks" from storms, etc.)
* '''Size''' — acts as  a ship’s Constitution score, as well as overall largeness. Good for taking a beating. Indicates general stowage and personnel capacity. Like constitution, it has a bearing upon the number of consequences a ship has. Actions: overcome, create an advantage, defend, & attack (ramming only — in which the attacking vessel takes equal damage)
* '''Rigging''' — the overall ratio of drag, rigging, masts, and sail to generate speed. Good for contests of speed and outdistancing enemies. This score is also capped at the number of unchecked crew boxes. Actions: overcome, create an advantage

Regarding crew capping for ship skills, active PCs can substitute or compliment crew at a rate of 2 trained seamen PCs (those identified as having sea experience through an aspect) for every one stress box, or 4 untrained PCs.

A typical ship will start with +0 in all categories. Scores can be raised and lowered point-for-point to a maximum of +2 or -2 without spending refresh. Each ship also has a name and two aspects. Each PC is granted a point of refresh to purchase stunts for the ship to upgrade her attributes. Provided a crew can be employed, at least one crew stress box is left unchecked. Crew may be complemented via stunts. Players are also free to invest their character's personal refresh to upgrade ship stunts.

====Ship Stress & Consequences====

The crew serves as the only stress mechanic for ships. Note that PCs may always take some or all stress from a defending ship as long as it makes sense, and with 2 more shifts of physical damage added to any number of shifts he or she elects to absorb. Ships may add up to 4 boxes of crew stress through hiring (conducted as downtime social challenges or overcome actions, or the liquidation of loot aspects). Each box is worth one point of stress each:
* 1 stress — skeleton crew (3-4 sailors)
* 2 stress — standard merchant crew (6-8 sailors)
* 3 stress — complimented military crew (10 sailors plus 4-8 musketeers or gunners)
* 4 stress — teaming with swords (40+ crewmen and fighting men)

Skilled mariners are assumed to be Nameless Apprentice Sailors:
* '''Aspects:''' Green Sailor
* '''Average (+1):''' Dexterity, Constitution
* '''Melee:''' Cutlass (+1)
* '''Physical Defense:''' Dodge (+1)
* '''Stress:''' None (any hit takes them out)

A typical ship has three consequences to absorb physical damage:
* Trivial [ 1 ]: simple makeshift repairs can be made by even unskilled passengers with common onboard tools and materials given an Average (+1) overcome action
* Mild [ 2 ]: common repairs can be made by skilled seamen with common onboard tools and materials given a Fair (+2) overcome given time at the end of the scene
* Moderate [ 4 ]: these repairs are lasting until the ship can be dry-docked and substantial effort made by experts, time, materials, and money. Recovery from these types of repairs requires a Great (+4) overcome and generally at least one session of time. Makeshift temporary repairs may be made by a worthy ship expert or officer at Good (+3), which may reduce the severity to Mild. The consequence should be renamed to reflect the alteration or temporary repair. Full recovery still requires the same effort as though it were a moderate consequence.

A ship’s size skill can grant additional consequences:
* +1 — one additional Trivial consequence
* +2 — one additional Mild consequence
* +3 — one additional Moderate consequence
* +4 — one additional Severe consequence
* +5 — one additional Extreme consequence

====Actions====

Every character on board can choose to take one overcome or create an advantage action. This can take the form of repairs, command, boarding, individual musket fire to enemy crew within range, or anything one can imagine. PCs may also lend teamwork bonuses to other acting characters. Each exchange, every ship can perform one movement action (overcome, create an advantage, or attack, if ramming), and one attack action (using the Cannon skill, assuming a ship is in position). These actions are made using strictly the ship's resources, but allowing invokes of existing advantages and expenditures of the PCs' store of fate points.

Boarding actions are conducted by individuals, most requiring a +2 Dexterity overcome, but require a movement advantage to justify. Ships can defend as many times as required.

An important sailing maneuver will be to '''''Capture the Wind''''', a common practice to take as much advantage of the elements to bear upon speed. Sometimes, however, a '''''Becalmed Sea''''' may prevent certain maneuvers.

====Ship Stunts====

Each PC gets one additional point of refresh to spend on ship stunts. They can also opt to spend their personal reserve of refresh.

'''Crew Compliment.''' Uncheck two additional crew checkboxes. (May only be taken once.)

'''Big Ship.''' Grants +1 to the Size skill. (May only be taken once.)

'''Broadside Cannons.''' Grants +1 to the Cannons Skill. You may target vessels lined up with your broadsides up to two zones away. (May only be taken once.)

'''Extra Broadside Cannons.''' Grants an extra +2 to the Cannons skill. You may target vessels lined up with your broadsides up to two zones away. (Requires “Broadside Cannons”.)

'''Fully Stocked Magazine.''' You like guns, and have built up your stockpile of munitions. You do not need to spend a fate point to declare you have the right kind of shot for the right job.

'''Hidden Cargo Hold.''' Your vessel contains a small, very cunningly concealed cargo bay. You may actively oppose attempts to locate it using your Intelligence +2 versus the searchers’ Wisdom.

'''Jigger Mast.''' Your ship is fitted with an additional mast, providing a bonus of +1 to its rigging skill. (May only be taken once.)

'''Narrow Beam.''' Your ship produces less drag than other ships of its class. If you opt to take on an '''''instable''''' aspect, you may achieve +2 to speed related overcome maneuvers.

'''Pile on the Sheet.''' Your ship has been modified to take on more than its recommended load of sailcloth. Once per session, grant a +2 to rigging overcome rolls during one contest. Take a Stressed Line trivial consequence.

'''Really Big Ship!''' Grants an additional +2 to the Size skill. (Requires “Broadside Cannons”; may only be taken once.)

'''Swivel Deck Gun.''' Grants access to the Cannons skill (at +2). Provided you have multiple mounting pedestals, you needn't make a special maneuvering action to target. Target a vessel one zone away.

'''Sea Serpent Ramming Mount.''' Upon successful ramming actions, reduce complimentary damage to the attacking vessel by 2 shifts.

'''Seasoned Crew.''' Upgrade your apprentice crew to journeyman level:
* '''Aspects:''' Old Salt; Ahoy There!
* '''Fair (+2):''' Dexterity
* '''Average (+1):''' Constitution, Wisdom
* '''Melee:''' Cutlass (+2)
* '''Ranged:''' Flintlock Pistol (+2)
* '''Physical Defense:''' Dodge (+1)
* '''Stress:''' [ 1 ]
