Trebantaboo RPG - Session 1 - 16th June, 2019

With more than a month to get to know each other on the ship "Las Tetas de Sofia", our party of three,  spent an ample amount of time both getting to know the other passengers, the crew, first mate, and captain. Everything soon began to fall into place as the ship grows near to Trebantaboo. Everything was fine and dandy, with little to no problem.

One of the party member, Naveeh, provided everyone with daily meals fit for royalty. Another party member, Pavo, along with the entire ship's crew provided everyone with daily shanties to keep up morale, despite his lack of singing skills. And our last party member, Larasen, along with the help of Dora, skilfully chartered a course and helped the captain navigate their way to an unknown point on their collective map, where the captain claims to be where "Trebantaboo" would be.

However, their heavenly meals and festivities were curt short as they crossed into the Lost Sea of Trebantaboo. First came the distant thunders, then the trickling rain, then the pouring storm, then finally, the ravaging waves. The ship was tossed and turned by the angry waves and though the sky was grim with rain and grey clouds, the crew was eager to rig the sails before the storm grew worse. Eventually, the captain ordered everyone except a handful of people to go under the deck.

Everyone hunkered down below while the Captain, the first mate, and the navigator stayed top-side and strapped down on the deck as they continue to sail the ship towards their destination. Few manage to find sleep while the rest were awoken by falling kitchen utensils and flying wooden chests.

The ship finally saw land, the first piece of solid ground they've seen in a month. Though they've overshot their destination by a hundred miles, they continued on towards what looks to be a raging naval battle between two large navies.

As the ship grew closer towards the battle, a deep rumbling came from beneath their ship as bubbles began to rise around them. The crew dropped barrels under the water and they explode, hurting the creature below. But soon, gigantic tentacles rose up from the waters and wrapped itself around the ship.

The crew and our party abandoned ship, including the captain and first-mate, and rowed away in dinghies towards the battle at the harbour. They could all see the ship they were on being dragged down asunder below the waves by the tentacles of a giant Kraken, before another large gigantic creature of equal size swam along and attacked the Kraken. An underwater battle ensued while the row boats made it to the battle.

Cannon fire and shrapnel flew everywhere as the crew and our party try to make it to shore. The ships opened fire on them, killing one of the passangers a few of the crew members. Survivors of the naval battle swam towards them and tried to clamber on but the first mate fired the first shot and everyone on the boats killed anyone who tried to climb aboard.

Tough one of the boats were struck by a cannonball and was destroyed, our party eventually made it to shore where they meet a few friends of the Captain who were eager to get them away from the battle.

And that was where the session ended. Next one will take place on the 23rd.
