| Session 4 – Saturday the 8th of October.6:00 PM My place. Signed up. YoYo Shamus Dan Chris Tim Clem Session info Session 3 ends 18th of April 1876 Session 4 starts 25th of April 1876 So you have a week to play with. All so if you want to make any experience out of the session make sure you get your session goal posted up at least 3 days before the session. Game Info:- Spoiler:
What's been happening in Saint George?
After the shoot out in the lot behind the general store the Sheriff drags all the living participants back to his office. It is quickly apparent that the Turners plotted the ambush and you are all released while Travis Turner and his remaining offsider Al Winston are locked up to await the arrival of the circuit judge. The Sheriff doesn't seem to happy about this as it might be months before the circuit judge next comes to town and with the constantly growing population of Saint George his little gaol spends more time full then he would like. The Mayor and Hicks can be heard arguing about it long into the night after everybody else has headed over to the #1 but luckily one cell is freed by Pastor Nicholas offering to look after the recovering Mr Mertrum at the church.
The moon rises higher as the undertake whistles on his way back home, regardless of everybody else being in a foul mood its been a profitable month for him so far. "Mr Pennybottem I advise you if you end up in this establishment you may want to diminish your olfactory senses in any way possible... I suggest a peg."- Mr J. Doolin

| Door Matt. I am signing up.
My goals for the session are to figure out where the Louisa Grey is taking Pickles. To work out more of a deal with Tony and Clay where me Steel and Doolin help dispel rumours of their dealings with Pickles and Preston.
I need to discuss with Clem and Tim what our plans are in more detail, involving voodoo and shit. But aside from that general buggery and letchery. | |

| Clem and Tim... or should I say:
Steel and Doolin. It is I Captain Artimus Pennybottom and we need to talk. These recent happenings have raised some interesting queries. We need to convene and discuss these recent activities. Let me know your thoughts, perhaps we could catch up over a drink before we progress.
(PM me and maybe we can arrange an on line chat conference, maybe skype?) | |

Why would they need to dispel any rumours of working with Pickles and Preston? | |

| Art, you wander into the Bills’ on the evening of the 20th only to spot a familiar face ordering a drink at the bar. Little Davie no toes the yellow bellied ships boy who worked the powder store on the Golden coin purse for you, he stayed on with Rogers after the mutiny mainly due to his general dislike of both fighting and swimming. As you approach the bar he turns and drops his glass in pure terror but you manage to grab him by the scruff of the neck before he makes for the door.
“Capan’ Red I swear to you on me ol’ mothers grave I ain’t had nuffin’ to do wif dat’ mutiny and the only reason I dun’ stayed with Bull for so long is on account of me bein’ unable to find a ways to escapes him!!!”
Your ever keen eye notices the growing stain around Davies unmentionables and with little more then a raised eyebrow on your account he continues to spill his guts.
“I managed to get away just recently you see Capan’! Bull had to put the Purse ta’ anchor in a little cove down south a ‘ere after we’s got broadsided by a Union Iron Clad a weeks back. Now ‘es all ‘old up in Injan territory wif ‘is new crew trying to get the Purse Sea worthy again! That new lot ‘es sailin’ wif at worf a gob of your spit if you ask me Capan, deserters and card cheats da lot of ‘em.! So that’s when me an Ugly Pete dun conspired to makes ow’ escape an made off wif one o’ da’ long boats!”

| - Refer to character history:
It was the 1st of April 1875 when Captain Artimus Pennybottom made doc in Oregon no more than 50 miles north of the border. It was a day that was living up to it's name sake. Art had been a fool to think he could sit idly back whilst those two merchant vessels fought over the trade rights to that port and take the spoils after they killed each other. The Golden Coin Purse was hit and started taking on water. He sailed north of the battle and managed to make doc safely in some po-dunk town that was safe in it's obscurity. A few of his crew, that he hadn't taken the time to learn their names, were killed in this recent endeavour and he needed to recruit.
The pickings were slim here. No locals looked to be the type to sail at short notice and the jail house was full old men and drunks. Hardly the type to be worth the exploitation. Art was about to give up and sail north a bit further when he settled down in the towns only inn for a drink. He sat at a table with one of his more menacing crew members. A big Negro man who worked on the deck but was handy with a six shooter and handier with hammer. His handle was Smith but everyone just called him Corn-Bread. So Corn-Bread and the Cap'n sat there drinking when they saw a bunch of guns sitting at the table in the corner.
Captain Pennybottom was eaves dropping when he overheard their leader complaining.
"Boys I tell ya we will find work out here".
"Bull you been say'n that for months and we ain't found shit".
"Watch your tongue boy I am still you sergeant".
"You ain't sergeant o nothing Rogers you a joke".
"Cooper one more word out of you and I will give a lead smile".
"Bull I don't think you got the lead any more. You wouldn't kill me and leave the three of ya'll with no one who can read. Plus I got all the money".
The Sergeant stood up and levelled his colt army in line with Cooper's face.
"You idiot Cooper. If I kill you I can take the money. Oh and I can read just fine".
*BANG* the bullet went straight in his mouth and left a messy puddle on the wall and floor behind him.
The sergeant sat down and then heard a loud belly laugh and the start of a slow clap.
"I like your style Ranger. The name is Captain Artimus Pennybottom and this is my associate Corn-Bread. You seem to be a long way from Texas. What brings you here"?
"I ain't no Ranger any more English, and I ain't got time for the law. I am out of work, money and patients so if you have been sent by the union I am not planning on answering to any of my crimes and you got a fight on your hands".
Corn-Bread gets up and walks over to the table. His sheer size makes the other two men with Bull shrink into cowardice and out their hands on the table and clearly away from their shooters.
"Ha ha. I am not the law and I care less about your crimes than I do about your dead friend there. Though I did see someone behind the bar duck out when you gave the inn a new paint job. This is a pathetic little town indeed but I imagine they have a Sheriff who probably doesn't appreciate murder in his towns private businesses. Tell you what, rather than explain what I do I will make you this offer really quickly. You and your boys here finish your drinks and make your way to the docs, get on my ship and have Corn-Bread show you to your bunks and I will tell the Sheriff you made you way for the stables. You work for me now and if you are willing to get your hands even dirtier they are you will make a lucrative living. If you decline my offer I will have Corn-Bread here take you to my ship anyway and we'll have our cook turn you into chum for the fish. Your choice really.
Now Bull Rogers was a brutal man but he knew when he was out numbered even in a room with only two enemies. He might be able to pick these two off but no captain comes into a bar with out men outside. So he chose to make this the light his boys were searching for.
"Boys looks like we got a new boss".
"Excellent, Corn-Bread take these gentlemen to the Coin Purse and find them rooms, I believe one just opened up. So you two what are your names?"
Sergeant Bull Rogers answered for them "The little ugly one is Matt King but we call him Matty the Plague, and this big feller here is Bob Stackhouse. He's slow but strong and handy with a long arm."
"Right, have the Plague work in the powder store with that little Davie no toes he'll fit right in down there. Bull and Bob can start by helping board up the port side until we sail, after that we need some more shooters so get them on deck duty and send Bull up after we sail."
They sailed out and before long were heading back into the maze. It took some time for Bull to settle in to duties. He resisted the Captain's command for a while but his boys Matty and Bob were happy on board the ship. They hadn't sailed before but were learning the ropes pretty quick. The Golden Coin Purse was a pirate vessel but there was a certain class on board. The Captain kept things running well and made sure his men were fed, boozed and laid regularly.
Eventually Red Art saw that Sergeant Bull Rogers could be an commodity for the ship. When ever they made port Art would take Bull out recruiting. As menacing as Corn-Bread was Bull seemed to have a knack at convincing people to sail with them. Usually by disposing of the first nay sayer.
Captain Red Art never really had a first mate as such. He had his muscle and he had his shooters but he never gave any one that appointment, but if it was to be assumed Bull fit the bill.
The problem Sergeant Bull Rogers had was that he was too impetuous. It was what got him chased out of Texas. In the year or so he sailed with Captain Artimus Pennybottom he had got the fear into a few of the crew but not more the the captain himself. So when the mutiny began he had only a handful of loyalists on his side.
He had Stackhouse but Matty the Plague was too scared to turn on the ship so he stayed below deck. So it was purely surprise that won the day for him. Although it was a flawed victory. There were 15 men that stood behind Bull when they knocked on the Captain's door. It took a few seconds for them to realise that Corn-Bread and Ugly Pete had cut 5 of them down from the back. Bob grabbed Ugly Pete by the shirt front and he yielded as soon as the gun touched his lips. Corn-Bread kept fighting with a few of the Captain's crew behind him but Sergeant Bull was in no mood to lose. He took out nigh on 20 men with his 6 shooters and Stackhouse's rifle. Now it is hard to say who died on board but when Captain Artimus emerged form his room he could see only chaos.
Bull was covered in pink mist and had his eyes focused on the Cap'n now. Cornbread was wounded but still smashing faces in with a mallet. Ugly Pete was on the floor with a gun to his head as Bob Stackhouse fought off a couple of young crew men with his other hand. He didn't know the names of the 4 men standing beside Rogers but he recognised them as the new recruits that had come down from Washington. Bull had convinced them to turn quickly. That made Artimus quite mad and with rapier in hand he cut his way through them like butter. Sergeant Bull Rogers was actually stunned. He hadn't seen his Captain get blood on his own hands yet and had no idea he was so lethal. Stunned he actually let Art's scatter gun reach his belly before he grabbed the barrel with his left hand. With a dirty smile Cap'n Red Art hit blade to barrel and cut three of Bull's fingers and the thumb of his left hand. If only he didn't stop to laugh.
Bull pistol whipped the Captain and Art saw that Corn-Bread had been thrown over board. The Cap'n knew he could keep his ship and live so he followed suit and jumped overboard. Both Corn-Bread and Artimus got hold of a small life raft and made their way form the Golden Coin Purse.
They stuck together for some time but the Captain eventually sent Corn-Bread off to try and find out if any one else had survived with out turning over to Bull. It had been a while since he heard from him and he had begun to think he was on his own.
Then one day in a town called Saint George Captain Artimus had been working with a lawyer and some other rif raf trying to get a crew together when he walked into a bar named Bill's.
There he found Little Davie no toes, and his first lead in ages...... "Little Davie No Toes.... I never thought it would be you I saw first. I notice your smell hasn't improved. So you and Ugly Pete escaped you say? Pete yielded at the sign of steel but at least I could believe he escaped. How did you get the balls to leave? You can't even contain yourself now. Regardless what is this talk of the Purse? Did Bull send you? I swear to you in the name of the mad King George that if you are lying to me I will cut your little willy of and make you eat it."I will go on to question him about the crew that were left alive. "Have you seen Corn-Bread?.. and What happened to Bull's boys? Matty the Plague and Stackhouse? How many does he have on board now"? | |

"Matty's dead Capan', Bull had him keelhauled not long after you jumped ship. It won't pretty Capan' but Bull jus' kept sayin' it was what would happen' to any who wouldn't follow his lead."Davies eyes go a little distant as he recalls this. "As for dem others, Stackhouse is still on 'e Purse but he ain't to keen on dat fact. Corn-Bread i ain't seen hide nor 'air of and Pete ..." his mouth curls into a big dirty grin at this point, "Pete's out back wiff dat buck tooff barmaid attendin' to his manly urges!" "The escape was mostly Petes doin' Capan' but he needed some one else workin' de oars wif 'im. I thoughts that Stackhouse would a' been 'is first choice but Bull dun let him up on deck to ofen'." | |

| I contemplate his words briefly and stare through him as I think out loud.
"Hmm Bull always lead with fear more than any real skill. A man whose only followers are loyal through fear will quickly lose said loyalty when doubt begins to rise. Stackhouse is fierce but from the start I could sense his doubt in Bull. I am not surprised that ugly little Plague Matty is dead. When I saw he didn't surface in the fight I knew then it was only a matter of time. I give him credit though he didn't kill you, though he did wipe out so much of the crew it's a wonder he had enough men to sail to port at all."
I sit him down and order over 2 shots. When the barmaid doesn't come a smile forms on my face.
"Actually it has been so long since I has seen old Ugly Pete I can't wait for him to finish. Let's you and me go pay him a visit".
I put my arm around Davies' shoulder and stand him up. "Lead the way my stub footed friend the three of us need to have a little chat". | |

main goal; scout out the Kwans forces and to start up some poker games at the first to try and find this first job im ment to be working on while im in town. While these are both progression towards main goals they are not main goals in themselves, what you have listed here are good examples of "session goals". These are both small things which are achievable in a session and can move you forward on your main goals. So an example of what your main goals should look more like would be; Main goal; Collect the Kwan bounty offered by the Mayor and take care of my initial reason for coming to town.then your session goals would be something like this. Session goal; Scout out the Kwans forces in the area and gather some information regarding my initial job. - angry_dan wrote:
- lesser goals; try and sus out who i can rely on in town to help me take down the _____forces and who has the information on them.
The above would be another fine session goal but you can only have one session goal for each session. SO maybe for the coming session a good session goal would be; Session goal; Gain information on Kwans forces in the area through scouting as well as asking around and then try to assemble a group to take them out. | |

| As a further note, with the exception of Mr Doolin none of you that have been staying at the #1 have made mention of paying your board.
With the rooms costing 50c a night and meals an extra 25c that come out to about 75c a day (ignoring any heavy drinking you might do.)
With this coming session starting on the 25th of April here is a list of what people owe.
Mac and Steel - $14 West and Art - $8 Ezekiel - $11
Make sure to deduct the money from your totals.

| I snoop around the boat yard for a bit looking for boats and their corresponding captains. I also use the sermon on Sunday to warn people to be constantly vigilant of sinners, as it is evident that one of them committed the murder that Sadie witnessed. | |

Out of interest what kind of wounds are you still holding onto or did Ezekiel take care of them? - YoYo wrote:

Snooping might not be the right word as Nuns in full get up tend to stick out but you do manage to keep an eye on most boats with out to much issue. With exception to the larger vessel that is being built in the Hanalans yard they are small maze runners that are docked in Low town. The Captain's all seem to be in town for basic repairs, offloads and restocks but after a day or two you hear persistent rumors of a Pirate by the name of "Dancing Toad Charlie" and his boat "The Lazy Sunrise" attacking a mining camp some where further south near a place called the hollow. Your Sunday service is a bit more fire and brimstone then the faithful of Saint George are used to and it seems to set them all some what on edge but afterwards Voodoo Tony stops by to tell you that he found in particularly entertaining and enlightening. | |

The point of this campaign was that the players could come and go when availability allowed if I understood it. It sucks that you can't commit to it regularly, trust me I know how hard it can get, but I'm sure if you find an opening you could drop in on the occasion. Am I right Matty? | |
