There they get a harsh reminder of the victims they have left along the way …

I picked this ashcan up with hopes of using it to run 7th Sea. I’m looking forward to listening to this.

It can certainly do the Swashbuckling but there’s some very specific magic in the 7th Sea setting, which the Mountebank and Chronicler playbooks (where most of the magic is) would struggle to replicate. If it has a core it’s closer to Pirates of the Caribbean’s more gonzo supernatural.
