Expatriate and Altherian access to firearms

Interesting, because Expatriate will give anybody a flintlock if Altheria is the adopted nation. I guess you could steal one once you get there. But I believe that would make for a short lived PC, as I suspect that any GM would ask for his license should I bring a gun toting pirate to the table.

Thanks for the clarification Cody.

But Freeport went -BOOM- don’t know anybody that actually lives there now. Naroi will just sacrifice an expatriate to the volcano. Garundi, well the only thing in the campaign that is from Garundi is Armand. I’d don’t know anyone that wants to move to his homeland.

Oh no. This guy has the nightmares to prove his survival from the cataclysm. I don’t really want to use the flintlock, but it’s on the mini.

Freeport went boom?

Ya, that was my thought too. When did that happen? I checked the core book. It’s odd. Freeport is indeed referenced several times in the book, and seems to still exist, as it is one of the locations in the pirate islands that PC’s can come from according to the table, but there is no actual description of Freeport in the Pirate Islands section of the book, which seems odd.

Freeport is indeed gone. James Zwiers has spoken of writting a module dealing with its destruction but I suspect real life has derailed it. He did share his vision of what happened with the BI judges at Origins this year. I thought there was lots of cool stuff mentioned including a treacherous sealord, complaints from a mysterious source, and an apocalyptic end of the Island through “the Fury of Yarris.” If you have the good luck to see James at a origins next year (or across the pond in England) buy him a beer and try to get the full story from him.

Nope.

It’s like a lot of expats in the real world. They live in the “new” country but are often not citizens and often lack some rights.
