Ixalin is wrestling with his thoughts as he sits across the room from Chandra. As a lifetime reclusive academic, he has never seen a Tiefling before now. Finally he cant hold it in anymore and his thoughts come spewing out.

“I’m sorry but I have so many questions for you. Do your horns continually grow? If so, do you file them or just let them go wild? Can you restrain people with your tail? Do you know your fiendish relative?”

Chandra answers curtly. "My fiendish relative is a long dead ancestor.  Where I come from, we are all tieflings.  I lack that flexibility and strength in my tail.  My horns are the same l;ength since adulthood."

The Captain turns to Gairlick when he approaches, "Its the village of Porthcrawl, ever been?  It's a small town, but I know a guy who knows a lot of other guys. Thought it might be a good place to start looking.  Its been too long since I've had to unload a stolen haul." and she laughs to herself.

As she laughs one of her crew members comes up to her, "Cap'n, we found something when we were doin' inventory like you asked.  You should come see" and he leads her below decks.

“Very interesting...” Ixalin mumbles as he scribbles notes in his journal. 

     "Can't say that I have," Gairlik replies to the captain about their destination. He remains on deck as she goes to examine something below, continuing to relax under the evening sun.

Ixalin and Chandra you see the Captain walk by your door in a hurry with another crew member. Tonk you see your captain down the hall from where you woke up, heading into the cargo hold.

Tonk follows

“Did That look suspicious to you?.” Ixalin will also follow. 

You follow the Captain and crewman to the ship's hold. There are crates here with all their lids pried off.  The crewman directs the Captain to one in particular. "See Cap'n, we was counting everything like you asked. Make sure we get a fair price. But then we saw this." and he pulls back some furs to reveal a secret compartment underneath. He opens that up, and stacked nicely inside are an assortment of weapons. "Theres swords, daggers, axes. All silver tipped, nice craftsmanship. These are not on the list. I double checked Cap"

**there are an array of silvered +1 weapons hidden under most of the crates.

Ixalin starts a detect magic ritual over the crate. He’s expecting some magic from the weapons but looking to make sure they don’t miss anything else important. 

Ixalin - Searching through the items with your magic detector pinging, you come across an Enchanted dagger, rapier and handaxe mixed in with the other items

Ooooo can I follow that up with an Identify ritual?

You spend some time with the magical items and discover a Dagger of Venom, a Dragon slayer rapier, and a Berserker Axe.

“Yeesh. Those are some nasty weapons. Where did you say you acquired this cargo?” Ixalin asks the captain. 

Ashlee appears in the doorway, his arm still in a sling. He sees the weapons being removed from the crates. "Those were not on the manifest", he says looking stunned.

“Then it’s not a problem if some of them go missing...” Ixalin takes the three items he identified and heads for the door to go up to the deck. 

The captain pipes up "Now where are you heading with my cargo friend?"

**Ooc: only you know those ones are magical

Just making sure that my pals are sufficiently armed. Certainly you won’t miss these three.”

persuasion: 9

Go ahead and put it on our tab. We already owe you one. 

She comes over and sees whats in your hands, then looks back at all the other weapons stored in the crates, "Fine, take them, but don't let my crew see them, then everyone will want one."  She looks at the crewman who showed her the secret compartment to begin with. "Ughh.. you can take one too...." and the crewman excitedly snatches a cool looking dagger and hides it in a small pouch at his waist.
