NOD Posted September 25, 2020 I like the second part of the story a lot better. Good photo story from the liberation. I'm glad that Captain Bluebeard is now part of the Sea Rats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ayrlego Posted September 26, 2020 40 minutes ago, Professor Thaum said: ??? I have to agree with Darnok. It is a fantastic build and story. However unless you had an agreement with LM71 Blackbird or Corrington, Bluebeard's story wasn't yours to tell. He was captured by Corrington in the MRCA. He was jailed in a MRCA result build by LM71. In the past, if no action has been taken, then the GM have allowed NPC pirates to escape. This time action was taken. Perhaps if we then had not followed up by the next deadline, he may have 'escaped', but that would have been a GM decision. Regardless, the next MRCA deadline has not yet come to pass, so the point is moot. Like I said, I do like the story, had we been consulted we may have even supported it... But to spring this on us is, well... 2 hours ago, Darnok said: Bad form Edit: As a faction we have decided to accept this story as cannon. However, I'd expect IC consequences as a result of this daring rescue! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Wolf Posted September 26, 2020 I love this build and story, but must concur with Ayrlego that COR needed to be consulted beforehand. That said, I'm glad that COR is accepting this as canon. The Sea Rats should PM me for some biographical background info for Bluebeard now that he has joined their ranks. Congrats to Bluebeard for finding a way to move beyond his NPC roots!
