The Ragpickers: Lair of the Driftwood King

 Dark swashbuckling along desolate shores

saturday 12/13, 2025: 11AM - 5PM

GAME SYSTEM: One Rolle Engine
SETTING: Mid 18th-Century, pirate adjacent
GM: Jack Young
VARIATIONS: Minor 
NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 5 
CHARACTERS PROVIDED?: Yes 
TONE: Dark swashbuckling and a bit of a dungeon crawl. If not quite horror then sailing just to windward. 

1753: In the increasingly wild frontier of the Archaven Archipelago, ragpicker crews sail solitary, far-flung scavenger routes for weeks on end. No bloody night raids. No cutting out or boarding actions. Certainly no wrecking. They simply comb desolate shores for detritus to barter in the islands’ gray market economies.

Although this paltry livelihood often earns them the ridicule (and quiet envy) of harder and more piracy-leaning Brethren, ragpickers usually welcome monotonous routines devoid of incident or excitement. Usually.

GMs IN-ROOM COVID PROTOCOLS: At present, none, but masks will always be respected. GM will test before the event.

Set sail…
