Role-Play- Pirating in the Caribbean

[Jack Teach]

Roberts grins.

Sounds good to me.

[Meliva]

The junks begin leading the way to a nearby port. Frank says to Roberts.

Ya know one thing I learned over my years of being an idiot, is that its pretty easy for idiots to get people in a good and friendly mood with a bit of honest talkin and friendly remarks. If there are any other targets as good as those galleons are, I think these folks should know it. ill chat em up real good like to see if they can help us.

[Jack Teach]

Roberts smiles

Excellent

[Meliva]

The ships all dock at a strange port, some of the buildings are Chinese in structure, while some are European. The old man introduces himself as Xi, and that this port was founded around 100 years ago when a large group of European pirates had to shelter with Chinese pirates during a massive storm that wrecked almost all their ships shortly before a fight broke out between the 2 sides. Thus the 2 sides had to work together, and in time their cultures sort of blended together over the years and they grew to become close friends. Xi says they shall party for the night and in the morning talk about good targets.

[Jack Teach]

Roberts looks around

You don't by chance have any tea, do you?

[Meliva]

Xi laughs.

We have some of the best tea in the world. And unlike the kind you get back in Britain its fresh from the gardens here.

Several cups of oolong tea is served to all who want a cup. Xi drinks some of his and he nods to Roberts.

If that is not the tea you would prefer I am sure we have your preferred flavor. But Ooloong has always been my favorite.

Frank drinks some of it, and finds it incredibly good.

This is quite easily the 2nd best thing I have ever drank.

Xi laughs and asks him.

What is the first.

Frank looks off to the sky and reminisces

Me mothers homemade lemonade. Best thing on gods green earth to ever be made to drink. But this is a good second.

[Jack Teach]

Roberts takes a drink.

This is very good. Now... lets talk business

[Meliva]

Xi nods his head.

Of course. From what I recall frank here said you were looking for good targets to raid, and I can certainly share some info with you. in fact your timing is quite fortunate, we found out not to long ago that a large fleet from England is sailing to trade a large amount of gold for silk and tea with china. Unfortunately we were not going to be able to raid it, we hear its to have 10 Frigates escorting it, and we only have 6 junks, and 3 frigates to raid with. But perhaps with your fleet added to ours, and with the element of surprise we could pull this raid off. Are you interested?

[Jack Teach]

roberts nods.

Aye, I'd be happy to join forces for awhile...

[Meliva]

Xi nods.

The fleet will be in this area in about 3 days. My men intend to try to steal another battle ship or 2 before then to help beef up our numbers. You and your men can do whatever you want. You can help us patrol for other ships to hit, or you can just relax the next 3 days. Entirely up to you.
