Captn. Falchion walks down the dock to board his new lead ship. A triple masted, double helmed, 196' boat: The Cantharus-II. Rebuilt from his old ship of the same name it was the former mightiest ship in the world. until a mix of a hurricane and battles with other fleets finaly took it down. The cantharus now comes equipped with:
-another mast
-raming spike on the bow
-roman fire catapults
-demi culverin artillery
-organ gun mounted turrets
-10 more cannon slots on each side
-larger more stable outriggers with organ guns and rams
-more comfortable crew quarters
- finally the most advanced piece: the armor plateing. Rigged on the boat as one would a warship it is made of non-rusting iron that is inpenetrable to regular cannon fire. The masts have been reinforced with internal armour.
As for the others:
Cormorantus Maximus [Col. Vipera Daniels{male}], Byzantium [Col. Constantin Romanus {male}], Stygmoloch [Col. Levi Krius {female}], and Reyuga [ Col. Faeror Rutori {male}], Renubiss [Col. Argent Regali {male}], and the Leviathus[Col. Valla Mordan {female}]
(all are double masted ships with all of the features of the Cantharus)

Kibo walks aboard, looking around at the ship.
Kibo: Nice. But of course, I should expect nothing less from you, no?
He grins, and extends his hand to Falchion.

Falchion looks up astonished to see this old ally. " 'Ey look 'oo it'is! Captain Kibo, hows it been on the seas without my fleet. I assume you heard about the hurricane...."

Kibo: It's Admiral now. Turns out the King of jolly ol' England isn't above bribery. And I did. Dreadful business. But at least you're not dead. That's always a plus.

Storm walked up and handed a letter sealed in wax with the king's own seal to Kibo. She gave Falchion a sideways look as she stood by Kibo.
"I'm almost positive that you are. Here sir, this came in this morning, off of the Spanish cruiser Inolvidable. The captain says he wants a word with you later. He only knows of you through reputation."
Her ebon face split into a wide white grin.
"He doesn't have very good sources though. He thought I was you."

"Aye, good day to you miss. Now if this lotty place would only yield a worthy crew I would be on my way but as my fleet carries more people than Tortugas entirety, I think Im in for a long wait."

Storm laughed.
"You know, small ships do have a certain homely quality. You need fewer men to crew, sometimes they're quicker and they're easier to hide."

Kibo: Remember, Falchion. Take quality over quantity. You may have enough ships to employ every man, woman, and child in Tortuga, but do you have enough people to teach them to be good pirates. Divide and conquer only works so long as you have good crew members.

"Me and my Skippers. thats about it. But only those were meet the specifications can sail. Im launching a campaign to go to Italy so as to ask the pope permission to bring back an old friend of mine. The crusade. My goal now is to bring back the city of Constantinople back under the rigthful rule of Orthodox. After that I will gain the Caribbean as my own."

Storm raised a finely arched eyebrow.
"My, but aren't we an ambitiouse one? And just how will you pay for all of this? Merchants are only good for a few months and there's dozens of other pirates sailing around. Not to mention other...shader, if that's even possible characters."

Kibo: Well, you've got the dream, I'll give you that. But do you have the spirit to keep it up? What happens when all these dreams meet cold hard reality? Do you have the constitution to keep up your own morale, and that of your crew? Time will tell, but, quite frankly, I don't think you're up to the task.
