Monday night we got back to our game. Kyte, the female magus, Jacen, the rogue captain, Sheene, the ninja cook, and Dugen, the half-giant that thinks he's a dwarf, were back in action. The Druid missed the announcement that we were restarting but will rejoin us next week. The other Magus has left the group.
The ship was hit by a surprise squall and the old Magus was knocked overboard and lost at sea. In addition, at the end of the squall, a bottle washed up onto deck. The captain very cautiously examined the bottle, an old wine bottle from Candlekeep. Inside was a wand marked on the side with the words 'Wubba Wubba' -- a wand of wonder.
Getting back underway, the crew continued on towards Luskan. A day out from port, a large warship appeared on the horizon -- the Dominator. The crew ran up a Neverwinter flag to attempt to appease the warship running under the Waterdeep flag. The Dominator ran up the black flag, calling for parley. Sheena went out in the longboat to meet their first mate. The conversation was short (and difficult since everyone was trying to remember details from last time we played). The Dominator left to chase down Captain Barnabas in the Carrion Crow, warning that the Bonny Kate should drop anchor and wait for Caliana of the Waves in the Vengeance who was a day behind the Dominator.
The crew got the Bonny Kate back underway, deciding to try to outrun the Vengeance (if they were even following) by heading north to the Iceflow Squib. A minor incident with an Eye of the Deep required a bit of fighting on deck, but otherwise the crew arrived without incident. (Though the captain was nearly loss after falling overboard after being stunned by an eye beam.)
At the Iceflow Squib, Rickety Hake, the local squib, and the local magistrate greeted the incoming crew. Many found a seat at the Toastey Squirrel, a local wigwam style cabin tavern with a modern bar and an outdated fire ring. The fire was surrounded by local barbarians toasting winter squirrels over the fire.
The tavern lead to new friends and new information. The adventure ended with captain buying a new ship off the beach -- The Celestial Kyte, as he renamed it, a medium sized gnomish sailing ship with a hidden gunnery deck.
