[[Will we first be boarding the ship that gets separated, or a different one? Sorry, I just want to make sure I have everything right in my head.]]
Lazaren is looking for some of the most skilled warriors among them, but tries to find a variety of lancers (skill-wise), as he wants to cover all of his bases.
Most of the other Lancers seem nervous - or even scared - about what is to come. You do find two that seem in good shape though, to fight and to lead. One is a sly looking girl, only slightly shorter than you, but she seems to have a thing for the short pulse spear and scorcher she has in her hands. The other is a Massive boy who stands at almost 9ft. He looks as though he could be an absolute savage in battle, with the biggest muscles you have ever seen, but he's laughing at the other girls joke and seems rather jolly.
Lazaren approaches them, and puts on a friendly smile. "Hey, you two. What are your names?"
The big one [[Yes, I have nothing else to call him apart from that]] turns round to look at you. "Oh, why hello there little one!" He bellows in a booming voice as he puts out a hand. "The name is Pax au Telamantas. What might I call you?"
[[totally good :) ]]
"I'm Lazaren." He looks up into his face. "I'm trying to assemble a boarding party, Pax, and you seemed like the kind of person to be useful in that situation."
"A boarding party you say? Well, I'm not much of a talker, so put me down for boarding and smashing some enemy ships."
"Thank you, I appreciate your willingness to help."
He turns to the sly looking girl. "What about you? Interested in joining?"
"Wha's in it for me?"

[[OOC: Yes, the Julli's are sisters. The ship can be completely controlled from the bridge, making things easier for the captain. The 9 other ships in your fleet, however, can only be controlled by you using communications with their pilots. This is done so if one of your ships is captured by the enemy, it can't be used to influence the rest of your fleet. It also helps keep each ship organised, and prevents the enemy from immediately knowing which ship is in command, which ship is your flag ship. Remember, if your flag ship is captured or destroyed, you immediately lose. Victra could be useful on another ship, or as a drifter between ships to help organise and rally your troops, but other than that there isn't really anywhere else for her apart from at your side.]]

You find another 9 golds that are willing to take part in your boarding party. You also (With that nat 20) come across the ships troop hold. A massive area of the ship that contains roughly 1000 simple foot soldiers and 500 Obsidians. You also notice Roque leave the flag ship with a group of golds, heading for another ship in the fleet, potentially in search of more troop holds.

(Time for some (simple) math.) Lazaren is pleased with these findings. He decides to have Pax lead 700 foot soldiers, 250 Obsidians, and 5 golds for the first wave, and Mave will be leading 300 foot soldiers, 250 Obsidians, and 4 golds to clean up the remaining enemies. "I'll be fighting alongside you, Mave, since your part of the plan is more my style, anyways." He hefts a pulse spear, studying it [[What are the stats for these?]]. "And if we find more soldiers, let's take what we can get."

[[OOC: Pulse spears have the same stats as a normal spear, but they can get through almost any Armor (they ignore piercing resistances). They also have their normal throwing distance, but also have a 10 ft firing distance, which takes the form of energy firing off the end of the spear that does 2d8 force damage on a hit.

I take that to mean that capturing an enemy ship won't add to the fleet number? That boarding would be more just taking the ship out of their numbers.

"So I would be in charge of another ship? Or would I just be on another ship?"
[[OOC: That's not what I meant. So basically, if you capture a ship it becomes part of your fleet, as long as it's still in working order. Once you have captured said ship, the rest of the enemy fleet can chose to completely cut off all communications and control with that ship, immediately turning it into a hostile for themselves. They do this so you can't use the coms on your newly captured ship to try and influence the rest of the enemy fleet into joining you. If all ships were controllable from the flag ship this cutting off wouldn't be possible.]]

"Absolutely. I was thinking, having Pax here lead about half of the party into battle, breaking up and scattering the enemy, while you finish up from behind. And I'll let you do this any specific way you want, in your style, just try and run it by me first. How does that sound?"

"I like it. Consider me in." She puts out a hand.
[[You don't have any on you right now, but there are multiple weapon racks around the bridge that are filled with scorchers, wreck shields, pulse spears and razors.]]

(I'm assuming it's for a handshake) He shakes it, and grins. "Thank you, um, what was your name?" (I'm also assuming that she tells him her name, but let me know if I'm assuming too much...) He turns to face Pax as well as the girl. "Might as well be prepared for this as soon as possible," he says to Pax and (insert her name here). "Let's find ourselves a boarding party, and then we'll choose our weapons and equipment."
Lazaren will now just try and amass a force of fighters for the boarding party, and will have them look over their choices on the weapon racks.

Please make me on perception check and one investigation check and we'll take the average to try and beat the DC.

[[OOC: I've been thinking along the lines of a "I need someone I can trust by my side" kind of response but need to check a couple things prior to making specifics
1: was the Julii vs Julli spelling intentional? Just checking if they're sisters
2: While the ship has a central command, are there other places on the ship that would legitimately need another person there for the overview? Thinking like a secondary place for other guns or something.]]

[[OOC: Yes, the Julli's are sisters. The ship can be completely controlled from the bridge, making things easier for the captain. The 9 other ships in your fleet, however, can only be controlled by you using communications with their pilots. This is done so if one of your ships is captured by the enemy, it can't be used to influence the rest of your fleet. It also helps keep each ship organised, and prevents the enemy from immediately knowing which ship is in command, which ship is your flag ship. Remember, if your flag ship is captured or destroyed, you immediately lose. Victra could be useful on another ship, or as a drifter between ships to help organise and rally your troops, but other than that there isn't really anywhere else for her apart from at your side.]]

You find another 9 golds that are willing to take part in your boarding party. You also (With that nat 20) come across the ships troop hold. A massive area of the ship that contains roughly 1000 simple foot soldiers and 500 Obsidians. You also notice Roque leave the flag ship with a group of golds, heading for another ship in the fleet, potentially in search of more troop holds.

(Time for some (simple) math.) Lazaren is pleased with these findings. He decides to have Pax lead 700 foot soldiers, 250 Obsidians, and 5 golds for the first wave, and Mave will be leading 300 foot soldiers, 250 Obsidians, and 4 golds to clean up the remaining enemies. "I'll be fighting alongside you, Mave, since your part of the plan is more my style, anyways." He hefts a pulse spear, studying it [[What are the stats for these?]]. "And if we find more soldiers, let's take what we can get."

24/48

"Yes, this all sounds like a good plan. I kill them, and you clear up my mess."
"You kill them, get trapped and then we come save your ass more like."
[[OOC: Pulse spears have the same stats as a normal spear, but they can get through almost any Armor (they ignore piercing resistances). They also have their normal throwing distance, but also have a 10 ft firing distance, which takes the form of energy firing off the end of the spear that does 2d8 force damage on a hit.
For your hit points, in game it's almost lunch time (1pm), so not time for a long rest yet (Unless you want to) but you're welcome to take a short rest when ever.]]

Lazaren simply nods in response, then goes off to eat an early lunch (so yeah, I guess a short rest). He'll converse with whoever is nearby, if anyone.

Garagas says to Victra, "I understand your desire to be closer to the front. But I also need a second. Someone I can trust to go to other ships if necessary. Someone I can trust to give counsel on the current situation. It is an important position."
Persuasion: 14+10 = 24
He takes out his viol and starts an intermittent tune. "Music helps me think." he explains, "As for a first question of counsel, are there any preparations you can think of that have slipped my mind?"
[[OOC: viol should get a Song of Rest (+1d6) for those using hit dies in their rest.]]
Short Rest HP: 6+8 (from d8s) + 4 (d6) + 4 (CON) = 22
So from 23 to 38 since I can't get 45. Looks like I a little better luck than Lazaren.
[[OOC: From what you wrote
I take that to mean that capturing an enemy ship won't add to the fleet number? That boarding would be more just taking the ship out of their numbers.

The ship is bustling, many workers having lots of work to do in preparation for Garagas's plans. No one looks ready to start a conversation with you, but there are people around.

"So I would be in charge of another ship? Or would I just be on another ship?"
[[OOC: That's not what I meant. So basically, if you capture a ship it becomes part of your fleet, as long as it's still in working order. Once you have captured said ship, the rest of the enemy fleet can chose to completely cut off all communications and control with that ship, immediately turning it into a hostile for themselves. They do this so you can't use the coms on your newly captured ship to try and influence the rest of the enemy fleet into joining you. If all ships were controllable from the flag ship this cutting off wouldn't be possible.]]

Fine with Lazaren. He eats slowly, savoring the food and the little break he's been able to take.
