Re: Book 3 - Act 1: Perilous Waters
"Good ideas." Rod says, thinking. "What about something with Mermaid? Though Sea Nymph, I like that. It's a bit of a pleonasm though. Sea Wench? Wind Nymph? Mermaid's Pleasure? Mermaid's Fortune? Lucky Mermaid? What do you think?

Rod laughs. "Nice! Hmmm ...Our home base is Tidewater Rock. What about Star of the Rock? Or Rock Star?"

Seroneth makes a face at the last two names. "Go back, you were doing better before!"

"Rock Star?" Rosie stands up, walks over to the Captain and punches him the arm, "Someone get the captain more ale, he's clearly not drunk enough, or maybe he's too drunk and in that effing case we need to make 'im pass out so we forgets this whole bloody night." There a cheer among the crew about drinking.
The crew is rowdy all night as you square away a new name.

"Ok, ok, yer right. Let's take the best suggestions and vote. I'll think we should vote on one of the following: Wicked Wench, Sea Nymph, Lucky Mermaid, and Sea Strumpet. Any other favourites I should include?"

Re: Book 3 - Act 1: Perilous Waters
Flavinia still thinks the Wicked Wench sounds the best, though why wouldn't she? It's her own creation after all. If pressed to pick another, she'd go with Sea Strumpet.
Spending her nights partying like there was no tomorrow, or as per her own designation: "Party Like a Pirate!", keeping just sufficiently sober to mostly be in control of herself and not do anything she'd regret in the morning (aside from drinking so much that the headache would be terrible, that regret was a constant companion, until she had repaired it by more rum and, spending what was left of the late morning nursing the hangover, Flavinia finds time in the afternoons to do more practical things, like letting it be known that their ship is hiring. Given her antics and wild tales, she's as likely to attract creeps like Conchobar too dense to understand that they are totally unnecessary for pleasure or young gloryhounds that will just get eaten by Sahaugin and kinky crawlers. She probably should have made up an exciting story with not so many gruesome deaths, but that's somehow wrong to her. People shouldn't sign on a ship because of lies and embellishments. Although if they liked her style of storytelling and partying, why, welcome aboard!

Rod hangs around and also helps with the hiring, also he tries to uncover any rumors about Meri's sister, more treasure or anything interesting.

Re: Book 3 - Act 1: Perilous Waters
The Captain mingles with Rickety and others and hears some far fetched tales about treasures and items of interest, but none of the locals know anything about Meri's sister. He hears of a Crystal Dodo and of a Skeleton Ball Gown.
