Story 5/31/2020

The session started off with the group sorting out the orders they wanted to give to Captain Neyola and their newly acquired 2 ships. They eventually settled on them doing fairly standard pirating, but flying a flag that was the Pirate having a drink with The Raven Queen. The flag would become their own personal brand, and as their influence grows, it could signal to other ships what to expect as the pirates approached.

The group decided to head towards Corsair's Cove, in search of a way to try and and get all the remaining pirate captains together to try and steal their urn pieces.

As they approached the cove, they found that the 10 or so remaining pirate captains were already in the cove. Their large ships were anchored in the main part of the cove, and dozens of smaller ships were parked in various areas around the cove. They took a boat to shore, and instructed those remaining on the ship to be ready to flee if things went south.

They spent some time in the waterfront part of the town, which consisted of some really rough and tough bars. The town was bursting at the seems, as the current state of the pirating business was really good, with authority being tied up in other things, and lots of people trying to move their valuables around. The conversation and the rum flowed exceptionally well, and they quickly built a reputation among the pirates, and even had some pirates wanting to sign up with their crew.

They also learned that the other pirate captains had been summoned via Ravbit to the cove for a meeting, which was extremely rare to have them all in the same place at once. It was also strange since to coordinate that many Ravbit's would not be a trivial task.

The group decided to head to the meeting area with Captain Neyola, and found the other 10 captains all in a meeting with Carmina, the Drow who is a member of the Orange Robe Crew. After some quick introductions, Carmina let out that she was trying to organize the pirates under her leadership. She claimed that while things were good now, the pirates needed a leader to guide them through things when the authorities came back into power in the near future.

Beorn, Lunashe and Khaelis all made a case about why Carmina was evil, and she requested the group stand in the center in a pool of water to be judged by the other captains. They described the attack on Miradore with the Avatar of Orcus, and all the bad things the Orange Robe Crew was involved with, including the Kraken itself. While this was going on, a strange Eladrin named Eramaris kept glancing at Erevan, and Shalara kept a low profile.

The pirates seemed to buy the group's story, so Carmina and Eramaris jumped down into the water and attacked. Eramaris swiftly weaved in and out of the group landing many attacks in quick succession, and Carmina turned out to be incredibly tough and resilient to the groups attempts to restrain her. She almost had Khaelis dead to rites, but a clutch heal from Lunashe saved him.

Both eventually fell, but Carmina's body was quickly consumed by a dark Necrotic magic preventing the group from being able to collect artifacts from her. They did find 2000g amongst her possessions, and a very rare magic item on Eramaris's body.

The group was then left to decide what to do with their newly enthralled pirate captains. While they were discussing it, 7 Ravbits began to circle overhead, and delivered each one of them a message....
