With that smirk she propped her black boot upon the railing at the front of the huge ship, the dark elf gazed forward, right at the dock of the port, that was the city which loomed ahead. Her crew waited axiously, outcasts like her. She and three others where dark elves, a few humans, brigands who Yasraena and her two brothers had found and convinced to join the pirate crew. There where also four orcs, remnants of Sauron's army, Without their ruler the orcs had been scattered, finding these four they swore their lives to the drowess that was one of Menzoberanzann, Menardi wore pirate garb, yet the staff she carried spoke of her true magical profession.
But that was not even something her crew knew of, Her brothers knew, she was an enchantress, her magics effected the minds of her foes, forcing them into fits of Catatonia, and paranoia. She was feared by her crew even though they did not know infact the one member of the crew, a huge demon was her mind slave. The Demon was quiet and his eyes where glazed, the ships strong arm, if you would. As the ship neared port she looked at the crew. "Prepare to dock, steady the sails!" The crew men moved to work, strong hands grabbing the ropes and pulling hard, the ship slowly made it's way into the dock, and slowed to a stop, Jumping from the ship, the crewmen, tied the ship to th dock and held it secure. The plank dropped and the crew marched down, with Menardi in the lead. The drowess looked around, and began to march towards the city, with a smirk upon her dark violet skinned face. "This should be fun.

This was Sameryn Conrey's first raid with this crew. They tended to be more precise, albeit more cruel, than her previous pirate comrades, but she followed suit. Sameryn was an effective distraction to any menfolk on shore, though able to defend herself, an adept ambassador should they befall any encounter with the legal types, and most importantly, a decent rogue. She tended to dress a step or two above her shipmates and was often mistaken for a victim rather than a pirate, allowing her to get out of many situations unharmed.
She didn't exactly like the crew--or the way they'd 'hired' her, but she hadn't been mistreated and the pay had been better than expected.
Having noticed that the crew had consumed most of the whiskey and rum, her first stop was the tavern. She took two burly, oafish men, who followed a few paces behind her. Before the noises of the raid caught up to her, she entered the nearest tavern, casually drawing her sword.
"Give us the goods!" Sameryn demanded, her flaming hair and emerald dress blowing inward as she left the door open.
The bartender quickly handed over all of the till money, and even went for a second drawer beneath. Sameryn gladly bagged it and took it.
"These are fine, but we're here for the real goods, too."
And the men proceeded to relieve the tavern of its alcohol, case by case, keg by keg, delivering it to the grateful crew on the ship.

Menardi laughed as she and her two brothers the drow Kage and Rizzan, rushed forth they they stole jewelry from the women, gold from the men and Menardi had found her other brother during the journey, the dark elves and two orcs rushed through the city as they went towards the town halll, where they would find the scroll of the people of the city. She was searching for potential crewmen, in the prisons. outcasts like her. The demon her mind slave was doing it's job of causing terror, as well as getting food and furs.
Menardi put the city council in a state of catatonia while Kage and Rizzan worked on gathering the scrolls. With enough info the three and two orcs had left to find the prisons, these men would be in for a suprice. she found two she wanted to join the crew but the rest would be freed as well. And with that she led the way to the prison. "Free them all. Find the two and bring them to the ship. Rizzan you go and tell the crew to hurry with the treasure finding and make their way back to the ship. Pirate hunters will be on this city in no time."
Menardi looked at Kage. "You go find our new crewmen, I got something to do." Menardi turned and walked off. She had to find a special magical item, which was rumored to be on this island, it was the reason that she had desided to come here.

Sameryn stood before Kage as she saw him looking around for crewmen. She knew that look--it was he that had abducted her recently. She put her hands on her hips, glaring at him with several coin purses tied to her belt, filled with jewels, coin, and the like.
"Where do you think you're going? Not taking anyone against their will again, are we? Bet you half my share of the loot that I can find a passenger willing."
She smiled mischeviously, and so he knew she was being light about it, she punched him gently in the arm. She enjoyed her profession, but knew that most would not, and was staunchly against the idea of abducting crew.
Not waiting for Kage's reply, she drew her Irish sword and looked behind her, ripping off the top button of her shirt. It was a man's shirt, but worked well enough under her swashbucking peasant dress. She looked for the nearest burly man aside from Kage, knowing that a busty Irish woman would help convince him, if not the sword in her hand. She turned her head back toward Kage.
"What say you?"
