*the Teroso Libre (TL) started in Bristo doing jobs for American Crane. Found Earth water on zombie ship.
*Crane saw their potential and advised them to become Questors, so visit Tressa, taking Carroway fruit as a gift
*En route to Maroa to buy the fruit the TL intervened to help a ship attacked by pirates
*They drove off the pirates but had to go into Little China to make repairs [covid happens, players disappear]
*Blays, Jose and OE continued to Maroa on another ship to buy the fruit, Chabas and Mattias stayed to fix the TL
*Chabas & Mattias discovered smugglers using a kraken sub, also uncovered an underwater octopon coven
*They visited a nearby island to get Kraken advice about the sub , entered an ancient holy cave , got enlightened
*(At Maroa the atani gave Jose the fruit for free, but asked for his help in return.)
*One Eye took a ship to Little China to bring the fruit, delivered Jose’s message to go on without him
*TL set sail to Tressa / the Teeth stopping first at Sharks Bay, foiling a human cult worshipping octopon-like deities
*TL sailed along southern coast of Torath Ka, saw Walking Gods, had love triangle issues, etc.
*TL peed all over Tressa’s tests, delivered water and fruit, got a prize.


==Tressa's Secrets==
Tressa explains what they have learned about the sea hags. Three sisters , daughters of a Ograpogan general, were drowned as a punishment for murdering their father after his return from a campaign against the Ugaks. Tied to stakes in the incoming tide, they called down a curse on Ograpog. They swore that the country’s capital city would drown under 50 fathoms of salt water. The heavens opened. Ograpog drowned as the sea rushed in. Later, the sisters rose as gargantuans who wreaked havoc on the survivors.

Tressa believes the sisters-the hags-somehow learned the black magic of the Ugaks their father conquered. It was the defeated Ugaks’ vengeance that the general’s daughters used Ugak magic to murder their conqueror and destroy most of Ograpog.

The Questors have learned this tale after patient investigation, picking through the tales of survivors, studying records that survived the deluge and learning about Ugak magic. They have learned that the sisters can be summoned by pouring out Earth water over the Devils Cross and stating their true names.

Which Tressa has now learned. She places a heavy tome on the table. It is a ledger stolen from the surviving highland city of Baltimore, Ograpog’s new capital and headquarters for the East India Company. It contains announcements of prosecutions of serious crimes committed in the months before the flood. One of the last recorded items mentions three daughters imprisoned for patricide, as well as the murder of their youngest sister. Their father, the first victim, is listed as War Archon Ajax GreenWater. The girls’ three names are listed.

“It has taken us many years of adventure to locate this record. But we now know who the hags are and how to summon them. The problem is this. The last time they were confronted with main force they destroyed a Kraken squadron of ironclads and a fleet of Ograpogan triremes carrying the country’s most powerful Arch-Elementalists. Such a force no longer exists in our world. We have some ideas as how to continue, but first, do you have questions about what you have heard so far?”

== Players ==

===Active===

Mitch - Mattias van der Zoort, engineer (Dutch)

Baeraad - Chabas, crabby doc (Scurillian)

Stinkyfool - One-Eye Smythe, general purpose pirate (English)


===Retired/missing===
Max - Blays, dolphinman marine (Doreen)

Leith Maclaine - Jose Cuervo Anglaise, captain (Spanish)

Faubus - Gilliat de Gruchy, navigator (English)

== Background ==

The world of Caribdus is drowned, once-mighty empires and prosperous lands lying beneath endless fathoms of dark water. The curse of the Sea Hags, three undead sorceresses risen from their death by drowning to avenge themselves on the world that saw them executed for their dark deeds, has wreaked incalculable havoc - and even now continues to do so, as ghostly pirate ships and aquatic monstrosities emerge out of the Flotsam Sea to torment the survivors clustered on the few remaining islands of dry land.

But calamity brings opportunity, and unprecedented freedom for men and women of courage and guile to make their way in the new world. Burly, grey-skinned Grael ply the new seas alongside the diverse, idiosyncratic Masaquani, seeking riches from trade or whaling or piracy. Gruff, thick-shelled Scurillians apply their sharp minds to understanding the new world and to save what can be saved of the old. Mysterious Kraken elementalists wander the ports and the distant islands, some say in search of a way to avenge their race's suffering at the hands of the Sea Hags. And sailors arriving through mysterious means from a place they call Earth bring their savvy, ambition and strange religions to bear.

Riches and glory awaits for those with the quickest minds... and the sharpest cutlasses. [Thanks to Baeraad for this blurb] 

...................................

Folks will be able to play without the setting book. Mostly characters can be built using core rules. The world background, new stunts, etc are all summarized pretty nicely here

........................................

I'm thinking:

- Savage worlds Adventure edition. I'll take you through chargen backstage using a Conversation

- one post min per two days

- Two-month (?) game; characters can be easily 'parked' if life gets busy

- Start at Seasoned

- nice mix of races and types but at least HALF, please,  human sailors from earth. 1 Elementalist.

- we try not to power game - SWADE's fixed up most loopholes but try to build competent swashbuckler all-rounders

- story  taking place within the time-line of the main Plot Point campaign, but subverting the plot to keep it interesting for players familiar with the canon tale.

- characters are pretty good guys-the young sister has sucked in plenty of bad eggs like Blackbeard to no avail-more recently she's teleported in gooder folk

- you know my foibles-tendency to rush, railroad. PM me or even warn me publicly since we all know each other.

- There'll be a hilariously-named sloop-as a co-owned vessel.

- Just one setting fiddle. I want to make Masaquani culture a little less generic and bland. I'm thinking they are survivors of Atlantis. Toga-clad Ancient Greeks who sail elegant classical ships and have columned palaces. With names like Aeschylus, Jason, etc. What, that's more bland?

== Characters ==



=== Chabas ===

Chabas is a crab on a mission - write the definite book on the natural history of Caribdus! He's read several of the existing ones, but they were all written by inferior soft-headed creatures and of generally shoddy scholarship. To finance his research he's unfortunately having to work as a ship sawbones, tending to the astonishingly wide variety of bumps and bruises that shell-less creatures somehow manage to get. He tries to be patient about it, but would it kill them to stop whining so much about little things like amputated limbs? Honestly, it's like they think they're not going to grow back, or something...

=== Mattias ===

Mattias “Deadeye” van der Zoort

Concept: gunslinging engineer

Seasoned: 4

; Race (Human)
: Gain one free Novice edge: Mr. Fix It

; Attributes
: AGI d8
: STR d6
: SMA d8
: SPI d6
: VIG d6

:: Pace 5" (d4 running die)
:: Parry 4
:: Toughness 5

; Skills

: Fighting d4
: Notice d8
: Persuasion d4
: Repair d8+2 (Mr. Fix It)
: Science d6
: Shooting d8
: Stealth d4
: Weird Science d4

; Edges
: McGyver
:: REQUIREMENTS: Novice, Smarts d6+, Notice d8+, Repair d6+
:: A McGyver can improvise a device from common resources when the need arises. Given a few simple items, he can make a Repair roll to craft improvised weapons, explosives, or tools, that last until used or the end of the encounter (GM’s call). This takes one entire turn, and he can’t move or take any other actions while constructing the device.
:: Failure means the device isn’t ready. A Critical Failure means he doesn’t have the right materials and can’t create the device this encounter.
:: Success creates a minor explosive (2d4 explosive in a Small Blast Template), a one shot projectile weapon like a “zip gun” (Range 5/10/20, Damage 2d6), rickety raft, electrical source, etc.
:: A raise creates a larger explosive (2d6 in a Medium Blast Template or 2d4 in a Large), a better ranged weapon (five shots, 2d8 damage, Range 10/20/40), a more stable raft, a more powerful battery, etc.
:: The quality or power of the creation is completely up to the Game Master, but creativity should be rewarded, particularly in the most dire and dramatic situations
: Mr. Fix It
:: REQUIREMENTS: Novice, Repair d8+
:: The mechanic adds +2 to Repair rolls. With a raise, he halves the time normally required to fix something. This means if a particular Repair job says a raise repairs it in half the time, a Mr. Fix It can finish the job in one-quarter the time with a raise.
: Brave
:: REQUIREMENTS: Novice, Spirit d6+
:: Those with this Edge have learned to master their fear, or have dealt with so many horrors they’ve become jaded. These valiant explorers add +2 to Fear checks and subtract 2 from Fear Table results (see page 124).
: Dodge
:: REQUIREMENTS: Seasoned, Agility d8+
:: The hero can anticipate attacks or move erratically under fire. Unless the victim of a surprise attack and taken completely unaware, Dodge subtracts 2 from all ranged attacks made against the character. Dodge does not stack with actual cover, however.
: Arcane Background (Weird Science)
:: ARCANE SKILL: Weird Science (Smarts)     
:: STARTING POWERS: 2
:: POWER POINTS: 15
:: Weird scientists use strange and powerful inventions beyond the normal technological level of the setting. 
:: Weird scientists must usually activate their powers through their assigned device, but they can improvise other ways if needed at a −2 penalty. This requires a decent rationale relative to the setting and the GM’s permission.

; Hindrances
: Curious (Major)
:: It killed the cat, and it might kill your warrior as well. Curious characters have to check out everything and always want to know what’s behind a potential mystery or secret.
: Slow (Minor): Peg Leg
:: A disability or past injury has hindered this hero’s mobility. As a Minor Hindrance, reduce his Pace by 1 and his running die one step (if already d4, reduce to d4 − 1). Slow characters may not take the Fleet-Footed Edge.
:: Prosthesis: A character with the Minor version of this Hindrance may have a prosthesis. If the prosthesis is lost, he suffers the effects of the Major version of Slow.
: Bad Luck (Major)
:: Your hero is a little less lucky than most. He gets one less Benny per game session than normal. A character cannot have both Bad Luck and the Luck Edge.

; Background
: When Mattias was a boy, he watched a naval battle from the shore. A stray cannonball took off his right leg at the knee. From that day onward, he wanted to be an engineer.
: When he was old enough, he attended the Holland Nautical Academy. He saw a big future in technology, and its maritime applications. Unfortunately, he had an accident while working on a steam engine, and lost his left eye.
: When he suddenly found himself in Caribdus last year, he discovered a whole new realm to explore. Whatever his destiny here may be, he hopes to find it soon; he’s running out of parts.

; Appearance
: Mattias has shoulder-length blond hair. His right eye is blue. Instead of a left eye, he has a black leather patch, with inlaid white crosshairs in a circle. He wears the wide-brimmed hat and neckerchief of a Dutch sailor, along with a leather jacket he picked up since his Arrival. His right leg ends in a sturdy wooden peg.

== Tesoro Libre ==
[[File:Yacht_10.jpg|right|250px]]

This little Spanish yacht from the turn of the 18th Century draws a fairly minuscule 1.6m of water with a mast height of about 26m. The deck is about 20m long and 6m wide (so more or less 10" by 3" in SW).

The tiller rod is located comfortably under the eaves of the covered poopdeck so the good captain doesn't have to stand in the sun, wind and rain all day.
