Trouble off the Salamandastron Coast

[Luna Broadblade]

Hello All,

So in discussing the fate of the angsty Ash, Jan and I hit upon some ideas we think could use some further development.

There was discussion of having pirates/slavers off the coast of Sali and then tying it back to an over-arching plot. It was suggested that the slavers could be working with one of the warlords, or potential warlords, already in the area. They could be setting up the prisoners to be used as canon fodder in the upcoming war, or using said prisoners to make war weapons.

We'd need for there to be someone to play the slavers though, and determine what their connection would be to the over all plot going on in Mossflower. So that being said... Any ideas on how to improve upon this idea, and anyone wanting to take on roles in this particular sub-plot?

i think if i remember correctly you were talking about ash getting kidnapped?

i'll throw a suggestion out there since i feel bad about not having plot ideas. the pirates/slavers/raiders or whatever could be working with one of the warlords and targeting sala either to try and weaken it by using its members as hostages (i doubt that would work considering but maybe it would give the hostage's friends qualms about fighting) or maybe just raiding around sala to prove they're a threat and thus keep the long patrol somewhat split up? keep them all from going after the warlords in mossflower?

Sort of diversify the threat and make it so there are multiple factions working against each other? I like it. But who will they be? And what is their plan? I'm not arguing, just brainstorming...

So.... blame Luna
She's kept poking me with this possible plot bunny... and well, one thing let to another, and my imagination went on a fun spree... and I'd like to volunteer to be that pirate lord!
She'll be for approval shortly! ^-^

Alright, so if this plot does get off the ground, here's another important question... Would anyone else like to volunteer to be captured by this potential pirate lord?

Markab, I'm curious if your current coastal thread with Keta is a part of this plot? If it is, I would like to join in that thread as a small band of the slavers.
