Captain’s Log:
I figured I may as well start recording my adventures. Maybe this record will be worth something one day. Even if it isn’t at least I’ll have something to read and look back on when I get old and tired.
Gar timeline:
Bragging Rights- Nabata
This is where it began, somewhat. I’ve always been a curious adventurer but it was back in Nabata where I learned what that really meant. I was out in the desert following a treasure map when I got captured. Two twins by the names of Hunger and Thirst had plans to use me and a couple others to work for them. A Pegasus knight by the name of Flower and an incredibly powerful Sage, Bart , were my comrades while we were forced to work. In the end the sage burnt one of our captors, Hunger (RIP) to a crisp and the other decided to leave us alone. We eventually found the treasure, what was left of it, after a number of other hunters had found it before me. I resolved to make my own fortune for the next generations to find. Flower flew off on her one winged Pegasus and I accompanied Bart to the coast.
Kids these days-Isles to Badon
I had foolishly decided to make a number of cabin boys my apprentices. To most of the crew they just got in the way and I was to blame for it. To be fair they had no business being at sea with pirates, but I was forced to learn a more deadly lesson. One of my apprentices was a thief working for an assassination group that was trying to take out my captain. We managed to stave off the assassination attempt but we lost the life of my friend and sparring partner, Fang (RIP). Captain Franco retired after we reached port, taking another of my apprentices, Liam, under his wing to start a new life.
Bodyguards- Badon to Western Isles
Some lord in Lycia wanted us to transport his frail kid to Etruria. I didn’t take note of the lord’s name but he gave us a few ships to ensure the lordling made it to Etruria safely. Kid’s name was Marvin and he wasn’t much to look at. He could’ve keeled over and died at any moment at sea, but it was our job to make sure that didn’t happen. Unfortunately, some pirates in our crew attacked our ship. Benji, some mate I kinda hated, revealed something to me. The lord wanted to get his kid killed, why else would he hire pirates to deliver him to the heavily militarized Etruria. It made sense, but we had bigger things to deal with. The assault progressed and Benji got hit by an arrow. I tried to pull the arrow out but ended up healing the mate. Apparently I have a skill, Sacrifice. I can heal others at the expense of my own life.
All and all the lordling survived but we reported his death at sea. I disbanded from the crew to search for other voyages.
First Responders
Now that I have learned of my innate skill, sacrifice, I should probably start trying to use it. A village on the Isles had been wrecked by a hurricane. I moved in to see if I could help at all. I met a true healer, Ichabod. He claimed he wasn’t a priest and I believed him. Most priests were scrawny and always preached religion. Ichabod was different. He was charging the survivors for his services. I don’t begrudge his behavior, but I plan on seeing him again to learn more from his healing processes.
Saints and Sailors
I had just returned to my ship from an interaction with a healer. I was informed of a corrupt congregation on the coast of Etruria. The so called priests had been killing those that they claimed to be saving. I joined up in a coalition to put an end to it. Our coalition raided a church on the coast of Etruria. The battle ended quickly, but I still have a feeling that it isn’t over.
Gambling Gar
This one was a rough one. I hate losing, and I lost a lot. Our crew took our chances in an arena. I won the first round. The second round I lost. It was bad. The armor knight made a fool of me. Worst part was that she decided to join my crew. Cynthia, a woman that would become my rival for the next couple months.
(Dead in the water)
We were stuck without wind. Dead in the water we took to drinking and gaming to pass the time. Cynthia joined into a drinking game with me and a few months. Our captain claimed that whoever won would be her new first mate. We both lost, but that was alright. The captain claimed that we both had potential and we could only achieve that potential outside of her crew… Fair enough.
Adventure Time –Vinland
I hoped a ship to a new, undiscovered continent. Vinland, as it came to be called, was an experience. I started by venturing out into the woods with a man named Aeos. Together, we built a comradery and took down a wild boar. That guy certainly was stronger than he looked.
Constructing a Bond
Aeos and I met again on the strange continent. Unfortunately I was unable to help with his work because of my wounded leg. I gave him a boar tusk necklace. We eventually went swimming to solidify our newfound friendship.
A stroll in the woods
Aeos and I went sent on another hunt. What we found was some monster wolf that was nearly dead. It had be fighting a shapeshifter, or a Taguel named Rhea. She was part bear and part human. Or was she just a full Taguel? I don't know how it works but it certainly was something new.
Rumors and Riddles
We had left Vinland and agreed to meet in Nabata to search for treasure. We came upon a spot tht I came to refer to as a spirit tomb. Wind spirits were trapped in a temple and in order to free them, we had to force the building to cave in on us. I was willing to do it myself, but Aeos had other plans. After the collapse I found Aeos in a crater. I guess the spirits protected him on their way to freedom.
Relief Mission
I gathered a crew to bring supplies to a village that had fallen on some hard times. With assistance from a druid named Morrigan and another pirate named Valerie. Little did we know, some of our other crewmates were less than noble with their plans and attempted a mutiny. We manged to put an end to that.
Adventure of your life
My good friend Aeos, Captain Emil, Carmichal, Loreley and another, a mountain signed on to travel to Valor. Hopefully this voyage to dread isle is worthwhile.
Seaside Speak
In the time between meeting the crew and actually setting sail, I caught up with Aeos on the docks. We had a conversation and he presented me with an armband. After that we had a disagreement of sorts. I upset him with some type of speak about myths and legends. We patched it up though, ended the conversation with a drink.
Setting Sail on The Adventure of your Life
By the time we actually set sail, we had a whole new crew. Aeos and I remained, as did Emil and Carmichal. A few others joined up as well. Vincent, Dietrich and his squad. We were set upon by pirates and we were forced to engage at sea.
Salvation
I was on a ship. We got attacked by dark mages that could drop black magic from the sky. We got obliterated. The deck splintered beneath my feet and I jumped ship. I’m not sure how long I was in the drink for, some amount of days. I got saved. Or so I thought. I was picked up by slavers and got sold to a man with a bullring in his nose.Three months, I was working in the mines, beaten, starved, taunted and all I could do was count the days. That is until I found Junzentaru in a collapsed mineshaft. Together, we led an uprising of sorts. We escaped, but we vowed to return to make things right. June and I will continue to work together.
On the Sacaean Shoreline
I've been travelling, avoiding the western isles. I feel like its too dangerous for an ex slave around those waters. I got away to about as far as I could. It felt like the right thing to do. Not only can I let the heat die down, but Ive also been a little curious about my heritage and my Sacrifice skill. I figured I would be searching the plains for some time before I got a clue, but I found the Chaklai and a troubadour named Midori. She answered a large number of my questions, I appreciated it. The Chaklai are very kind and helpful, but I feel like I don't belong with them.
Hopeful Hunting
Would you believe it? A treasure map all the way out here in Sacae. Midori agreed to lead the way with the help of a friendly guy named Skai. I might actually be starting to fit in with these Chaklai people. It's nice. The map was a fake though. Apparently the woman who gave it to me just wanted me to spend time with my parent's clan. Fair enough.
A Shining Light in a Dark Place
Still travelling/ wandering. June led me to a town filled with 'Corruption'. Well we sure found it, a town infested with zombies and what seemed to be dark magic. Not only did we find that but we also found Aeos and a yeoman, I dont recall if I caught her name. Well we all got separated and Aeos shouted at me that he was dangerous. When I found Aeos, he was unconscious in the middle of a crater once again. Junzentaru sure didn't like that.
Trust
June thought Aeos was dangerous, that it was risky to leave him alive. Luckily we remained calm enough to explain everything that was going on. I sure felt bad for not trusting him entirely, but all in all we are still friends. I guess that is everything that really needed to be documented.
Battling Bullring
Led an attack on Bullrings fort. I almost died but June saved me, again. Ended up killing Bullring and taking over his fortress in Caledonia. Not to mention I unlocked a new power with Junzentaru, focused beams of terrifying light. Yarr. Also June said I fought like the ancient berserkers. Hahar!
Hold the Harbor
I should've known someone would be upset with me for taking over Bullring's spot. Some guy named Bartholomew threw some zombies at my harbor. We held through the night but what worries me is this dark mage fellow. Well if hes looking for a scrap hes sure got one.
Shipwrecked
Aeos washed up on the shore. He claims his vessel was attacked by a group of dark mages. I have to imagine they were linked to Bartholomew somehow. I can't let this stand. He could've killed my best friend with that attack. This guy has crossed a line and he needs to be taken care of, soon.
Beowulf
I needed a break. I had to set sail and imagine my surprise when we came across a group of badon pirates. They had a young redheaded brigand named Wei with them. I gave the kid a bit of a fight before sending him back to their captain. No need for us Badon natives to come to blows in the open seas.
Ascension (Black Ticket)
Where do I even begin? Lost a scouting party and went to find out what happened. Apparently they were taken out by a freaking Cyclops. I ran into a couple of like minded individuals who had come to take out this threat. We worked together to take the thing down, but damn was it difficult. So difficult that June had to change vessels after the previous one got shattered. This new vessel is called Xigshaw and grants a strength boost when I call upon it. Also the new form seems to have altered Jun's magic. Now when it glows, it leaves hard light blocks in the air. Its new and it will take some getting used to but I like it.
