BlackPowder Crew At MysteriA 2023!

Hoist the anchor and set the sails for MysteriA !!!
Having laid low for some time, we have managed to elude the Royal Navy.
This calls of course for a celebration and what better place to do so than at the freeport of MysteriA in Aarrrrrrrschot?
We will drop anchor there this weekend and set up camp in a secluded cove, where our crew will be joining our French brethren of the Maraudeurs des Rêves. Around the campfires and the cooking pit we will be sharing rum and tall tales and reminisce of great seabattles, the sacking of coastal towns and treasure chests full of plunder and there will be great rejoicing.
So if the winds and the currents are favorable we hope to see you there!
 

.

The witchdoctor has spoken…

Finally the winds are favourable enough to hoist the anchor and set sail: Elfia here we come!

Since the spectre of Corona is still haunting the world, we will be well on our guard and set foot on Elfia’s shores with extreme caution. Our barber-surgeon, Hacksaw Henry, has stowed his crates with potions, amulets, peglegs, leeches, protective gear and his hamster, Mr. Celsius who can sniff out a fever from a mile away….well…at least from 5 centimetres.

Anyway, we have missed you all like crazy and are looking forward to see all you scallywags again.
We come protected and even though the revelling will be less lecherous as we’re used to, we’re prepared to party like it’s 1699.

Meanwhile: stay safe and see you all in Arcen!

Message in a bottle…

Me
beloved Crew.. Harsh times ask for harsh meassures.. It is with sadness
in our pirate hearts that we see the Yellow jack fluttering across the
seven seas.. Harbors are beeing closed for the safety of our
scallywags.. Therefore we shall not set sail to Elfia and Keltfest and
our journeys beyond are still uncertain. Our armada is anchored, using
all different means to natter and sing.. Expolore the horizon with yer
virtual looking glass and enjoy the artists across the World Wide Sea
doing thar best to amuse you! Keep yer distance and stay positive! Open
up that fine cask of Cooper’s Rum.. Let us hope this plague comes to an
end real soon..

~ Captain BlackPowder.
