Ran a session last night using (some, not all of) my pirate stat blocks, it went well, if anything they might be too weak. With the ship having wooden railings to stop movement (unless broken through) only 2 pirates fell to their deaths. with I think is an acceptable amount.

After months of hard work and many evenings giggling as I turned wacky kobold prompts into stat blocks, I'm thrilled to announce that version 1.0 is ready!

If you got it on Itch, you can download the new version from the Itch page. If you got it on Backerkit, a download email should go out soon. 🧵

Nothing like a snow storm plus a session in 2 days to motivate me to hunker down and get these pirate statblocks done. Will run them against my players on Tuesday, and then will probably share the first draft online, later this week.

I am working on pirate statblocks and I'm thinking of giving them all a triggered action, if they get forced moved into an open space where they can fall, they can use it to not fall. Narratively they use a grappling hook type thing to bring themselves back on deck.

In this post, I share some factions that i created for my game that is coming up in a couple weeks, that uses the faction rules i cobbled together.

Also experimenting with some new auto posting functionality for the blog.
Factions of Stormspire
It's time to share some of Shipspire's factions (and their stats). You can read more about what the faction stats (influence, impression, etc.) mean here. All of these factions will be active in the city by the time my players visit. Some might have more prominent roles in the story, while others will be in the background. I'm sure my players will pull a switcheroo and get invested in the background factions, but that's the joy of running games. ## **High Captain** The island of Stormspire is ruled by a High Captain, an elected leader who rules for 2 years before a vote of all the other pirate captains is called. A High Captain uses their own wealth and men to run and patrol the town. Stormspire is getting close to the end of the second year under High Captain Aldrich Stormspire (the High Captain traditionally takes Stormspire as their surname during their rule). High Captain Aldrich and his followers have gotten used to the luxury and power that the High Captaincy brings and want to keep the title. The High Captain has been looking for ways to expand his wealth and has fostered a budding relationship between his faction and the Relic Hunters Guild, which has a direct link to the wealthiest people in Empyrean. **Faction Stats** Type [pirate, government] Influence: 3 Impression: 5 _Relationships_ Relic Hunters Guild: Ally Cult of the Howling Wind: Rival Cult of the Eye: Neutral Storm Delvers: Neutral Smugglers Coalition: Neutral ## **Relic Hunters Guild** The Relic Hunters Guild is the only legal guild in Stormspire, at least from an outsider's perspective. They are headquartered in Empyrean and their charter is to find ruins and explore them, returning any scrolls, tomes, or relics to the Magi in Empyrean. Relic Hunters get paid handsomely for their spoils. Their objective—securing all magic items for Empyrean's powerful—puts them at odds with most of the other factions on the island, who wish to buy, sell, or transport such illicit goods to folks other than high-handed Magi. In a major turn of events, the High Captain has been giving this guild more preferential treatment, a stark change from the disdain that past High Captains have offered. **Faction Stats** Type [bureaucratic, treasure hunter] Influence: 2 Impression: 3 _Relationships_ High Captain: Ally Cult of the Howling Wind: Rival Cult of the Eye: Neutral Storm Delvers: Rival Smugglers Coalition: Rival ## **Cult of the Howling Wind** As mentioned in a previous post, the Cult of the Howling Wind is mostly treasure hunters and raiders; no one really likes them. But one of their kind has decided on a reckless gambit. Zula, self-proclaimed Stormbringer, also known as the Storm Witch, has thrown her hat into the ring for the High Captaincy. Not too many people are happy about the current High Captain buddying up to the Relic Hunters Guild, or the taxes he's has been levying on the docks and warehouses. Zula promises to return the island to its roots as a town free of oversight and burdensome taxes. Most are distrustful of her and the cult, but she has been attracting a not-insignificant minority of supporters. **Faction Stats** Type [religious, pirate] Influence: 2 Impression: 3 _Relationships_ High Captain: Rival Relic Hunters Guild: Rival Cult of the Eye: Rival Storm Delvers: Rival Smugglers Coalition: Rival ## Cult of the Eye This is a new religious cult that has formed in Stormspire; you can read more about them in this post. They are mostly ignored by the other factions, but have slowly been attracting new followers amongst the citizenry and sailors. **Faction Stats** Type [religious] Influence: 1 Impression: 2 _Relationships_ High Captain: Neutral Relic Hunters Guild: Neutral Cult of the Howling Wind: Rival Storm Delvers: Neutral Smugglers Coalition: Neutral ## **Storm Delvers** The Storm Delvers are a group of salvagers and treasure hunters; they make their living stripping the wrecks of both merchant and pirate ships that end up in the Worldstorm. When those pickings are slim, they explore the isles in hopes of discovering ancient relics to sell. **Faction Stats** Type [salvager, treasure hunter] Influence: 2 Impression: 2 _Relationships_ High Captain: Neutral Relic Hunters Guild: Rival Cult of the Howling Wind: Rival Cult of the Eye: Neutral Smugglers Coalition: Ally ## Smugglers Coalition A loose coalition of smugglers—although they prefer to style themselves as merchants. They typically act independently but when dealing with the other factions, and especially during an election periods, they make sure their voices are heard. Until recently, they were strong supporters of the current High Captain, but most of them are not fans of his new relationship with the Relic Hunters Guild. They are also not supporters of Zula Stormbringer's bid for the High Captaincy and are looking for a captain to support in the upcoming election. **Faction Stats** Type [merchant] Influence: 2 Impression: 2 _Relationships_ High Captain: Neutral Relic Hunters Guild: Rival Cult of the Howling Wind: Rival Cult of the Eye: Neutral Storm Delvers: Ally What do you think: enough factions to make things interesting in a mid-sized pirate town? Do any catch your attention? As a player, what factions might you might to dig into deeper? Are there any types of factions that you feel are missing? Let me know in the comments! Next up, I've been working on pirate stat blocks! These stat blocks can apply to any ancestry and will hopefully have some interesting interactions—think knocking people and being knocked off ships!

This is how long it takes me to make homebrew stuff for draw steel, got a good portion done over the holidays, but still have work to do on these pirates lol. Players will be entering pirate filled skies when we start back up in Mid Jan, so i gotta get these done.
Nothing too crazy but working on some homebrew pirates for Draw Steel, so making pirate malice, and a bunch of pirate stat blocks, along with then being able to slap on a modifier/trait to each pirate depending on what ancestry it is! Its been fun!
