Sharn, the City of Towers... Spires of masonry, titanic buildings linked by walkways and decorated with sculpture upon their edifices.

It's not the first time any of you have been in the city. It's a gateway to the world at large, and as such it's got the best airship yard in the world. As you are all crew on the Skybold, you've often had to dock here to restock, repair, and rest between missions or while just passing along. That it's not under the control of House Lyrandar like many other well-designed airship docks is another benefit.

Just now, you're on a bit of shore-leave, currently all located at the Siren's Song bar and inn, the airship docks just outside. The majestic Skybold is visible from the southernmost window of the Siren's Song, while the air is thick with pipe smoke, the noise of the assembled guests, and the song of a Talenta halfling's zither winds through the din.

{Hopefully my long delay has not already slain this game. The next two weeks are busy times for me at work, but I'll do my best to keep this moving along as time permits. For now... feel free to interact with the environs, and remember that you all already know each other.}  

[BegrudginglyGood]

Am I able to join! I love airships and steampunk in general...I'll behave, I swear!

{I started a recruitment thread a few weeks ago, and ended it about a week ago. IF the six PCs that I selected from that don't wind up able to participate, I may select yours. You'd have to submit it there, though.}

Veliosia was delighted for the break break off from working on the airship, it was all well and good most days, but he enjoyed the shore leaves when they came. Instead of looking rather happy and excited, he appeared to be his typcial calm self, his eyes the only thing about him showing any sign of joy, aside fromt he occassional half smile as he thought about a few things. "Another job done well," he says, laughing softly, shaking his head.

Alexander was helping the people with the sick and other people that were sick. He went out to get some fresh air from all the sickness."Man, sometimes this work is hard but eh, i can handle it." He said as he looked around outside of where he was.

Aggre sighed audibly as he strolled off the ship, and approached the tavern. The last trip had been exhausting, but things had gone well. He adjusted the leather strap that mounted his shield across his back, and walked in. He didn't even feel the armor he wore anymore, it was so much a part of him. The large man took a seat at the bar, and dropped a few coins on the counter, "A honey mead." The bags under his eyes indicated a lack of sleep, and his body was still tense.

((You might want to send out a round of PMs x.x I hadn't noticed that you were starting))

{That's why I quoted everyone in the intro post - I figured that was SOP these days, thanks to notices...}

Veliosia shook his head with a sigh, looking at his fellow crew mates before mturning his attention tot he barkeep as well, "And some decent wine, if you'd be so kind. Nothing too strong, just decent."  

[jennibert]

Sable had quietly left the ship earlier in the morning, slipping off when no one was looking to visit the House Cannith stronghold in Sharn. Not that she'd spoken to anyone there--in fact, she'd gone to some trouble to make sure no one saw her--but she had at least gotten some news of family goings-on.

Few people notice as she enters the Siren's Song and slides in next to Aden. "You did leave Faolan outside, didn't you? I really hope to never again have a bottle of Karrnathan whiskey dumped over my head. It took weeks to get the smell out of my hair." She turns a smile to the bartender and nods at Veliosia. "But a glass of decent wine like my elven friend has requested would go down quite well."

Veliosia returned Sable's nod with his own, a half smile appearing on his lips for a spilt second before vanishing again, "Glad to see someone else has had their fill of heavy whiskey. Wine is so much more, drinkable," he says, chuckling softly, "And a little less likely to lead to bloody knuckles and black eyes."  

[RafeRavel]

Aggre rolls his eyes at his companions conversation, grinning slightly. "Buncha goofs..." He mutters, and takes a deep drink. He was glad to be their shield-man, however. There's no one else he'd rather be traveling with. The man then removed the sword scrap from his neck, and examined it. It was common for him to do so, it helped him focus.

Veliosia shook his head with a sigh, looking at his fellow crew mates before mturning his attention tot he barkeep as well, "And some decent wine, if you'd be so kind. Nothing too strong, just decent."

The bartender snorts at Veliosia and Sable. "For the gold you're putting down, I might be able to do 'passable,'" he jests. He fulfills the orders of the new customers, eying the eidolon warily when it makes its presence known.

The din of the bar is relatively pervasive, but you get the impression that someone is actively watching the crew. Seated in the corner, almost cliched in its shadows, sits a man in a brown robe, his eyes trained alternately on Aden and the crew at the bar.
