Adventurers needed to investigate mysterious disappearances in a remote area of the ocean.

Plot Synopsis

A marine explains that shipping has been interrupted in an infrequently-used shipping lane about three or four days out from Lojem. This usually wouldn’t be a problem except that those few ships that do travel out there send and bring back supplies from a remote group of islands which have no other means of receiving goods. The adventurers are asked to investigate possible reasons for the disruption and to stop it if possible.

After traveling for four days (and entertaining Selina with lots of red string) the boat appears to be attacked by two whales, which are dispatched after multiple rounds of “combat.” While the group discusses ways of taking the whales back to Lojem, the boat mysteriously begins to sink. Upon inspection, a huge hole is discovered in the hull of the ship (a la Demolish). While the marines begin readying the lifeboats and the group ponders what caused the gaping hole, two lizard-like creatures surface and begin alternately directly attacking and fireballing the ship. When the adventurers move into the water, they “discover” two groups of sharks waiting to munch on them. All of the crew except one overly-lucky guy, Mordecai, and Aracondas succumb to the fireballs. Eventually, the two creatures and most of the sharks are dispatched (the other two lose interest and swim off). A shadowdrako takes the remaining adventurers (and three 10-lb rocks) back to Lojem, where they describe what occurred and are paid.

Notable events: Aracondus and Mordecai sleep with the fishes.
