As (perhaps) anticipated, this island isn't as empty as the gang had hoped. There was already a giant octopus guarding the bay, and we can only assume that is just the beginning of the gang's troubles on the Island of Empty Eyes. What other perils await them?

This sunken ship is just chock full of surprises considering its current situation. Hopefully there's not much left to it, the gang really should be getting itself prepared for the Regatta, and this damn shipwreck is inconvenient as hell. Will it be worth it in the end?

The front half of the sunken ship provided some fun little nuggets, but ultimately did not contain the prize the gang seeks.

Now that the gang has found the sunken ship they sought, and eliminated the competition quite handily, it's time to really delve down and figure out what made that ship so special. First, though, there's an issue with some sharks to be dealt with, but no one's ever died from a shark bite, right?

With the treasonous traitors finally dealt with, the gang finds themselves with some free time to prepare for the Shackles Regatta, a huge ship race held each year. A grateful pirate lord gave them a hot tip that a supernaturally maneuverable ship recently sunk, so the gang is hot on the trail. The ocean's only so big, right?

So just about everyone got away clean from the heist, except for the captain. His undercover job proved to be a bit too convenient for the treacherous owner of the establishment, so it appeared to be the right time to jump out the window (I mean, when isn't?). The golem that followed could be troublesome, however. Will De'Voth try to stand toe-to-toe with the golem, or will he bravely run away to...

The gang's favorite angst-ridden teenager got himself into trouble again, at the absolute best time: mid heist! Will Skram's bumbling mumbling get the gang caught in the middle of their mission, or will he be able to charm his way out of the situation? Ok, maybe not charm, but who knows what can happen?

Well, the gang definitely found the Savage Shipwreckers, and their illusion-spinning captain certainly is living up to her reputation, but we'll see for how long.

With their business in Hell Harbor on hiatus, the group heads out to search for an annoyance around the Shackles, a gang of pirates who do not follow any sort of honorable code, choosing instead to lure ships to their doom before looting their remains. Will the gang be able to put a stop to these Savage Shipwreckers, or will they fall prey to their treacherous ways like so many before them? As alw...

You can't always go home, but apparently Skram can! For the first time since he became a pirate three captains ago, Skram finds himself returning to Hell Harbor.

This week, Sharil makes a startling revelation that could put himself and the rest of the Maskador crew in jeopardy. Meanwhile, the gang receives an invitation to dine with one of the most powerful people in the Shackles, so naturally they mostly see it as a chance for a rematch for the eating competition from the Hurricane King's hall. We'll see how that goes. As always, please remember to subscr...

What hole did Sharil dig himself into this time? His investigation into the Masked Brotherhood has finally born fruit, but is that fruit merely sweet, or is it toxic? Meanwhile, now that the gang has gained some recognition around the Shackles, they are starting to come across some familiar faces as the quarantine on the goods in their hold winds to a close. Are these going to be happy reunions? B...

We found ourselves a little shorthanded this week as parental duties and disease struck the group, so we bring you another installment of our Sweet Side Action series.
