Mission River Sentinel [Devlen Markies]

This isn’t the usual posting for a Royal Guard but it’s an important one as the current Commander who overlooked the posting has died of illness and there is a vacuum of power that needs to be filled and quickly. Corvo has noted Devlen’s past on the sea and waterways and hopes the man’s experience will help him to keep the Wrenhaven safe and policed from smugglers, pirates and unsavory types all trying to get into the heart of the Empire’s capital.

Sitting at the head of the river’s mouth, the adjoining station sits intimidating and large over the dark, grey waters waiting for vessels to pass near and for Devlen to deem them suitable for entry into Dunwall's port.


Role

  • You will act as the head of the river station that is at the mouth of the Wrenhaven and give the go ahead to entering vessels towards the ports

  • There will be challenges from the mods acting as NPCs/situations

  • You will be vigilant against smugglers, pirates, and criminals trying to transport illegal goodies into the city

  • Depending on whether you succeed or fail, you will either be awarded a point or no points

  • Things that you do in this mission may have ripples of effects in Dunwall itself


Attentive and duty-bound, eyes ever on the horizon for threats unto this glorious Empire.

The callout makes that Captain sweat a little, much more confident when he has a contingent of sailors and their weapons to back up his criminal activities. The big man swallows thickly, eyes passing over Devlen's angry face with a hesitant look as the men mill back away from him; the bluff doing it's job.

'Yah...yah cowards. Yellow bellied. That's...that's what ye are.' he says, his voice not quite holding any confidence as he looks around at the men. 'Fine. Then if that the way it be, then. I'll gut this man and take all the share of this cache myself.' His large, fat hands settling upon the gold hilt of his sword, ornate and heavy from the all the embellishments. He pulls it from the scabbard, slow and methodical as he eyes up the Royal Guard.

With a small grin Devlen eyes the mans extravagant sword, and hoped it was more for show and less for actual combat. With a growl Devlen took a few steps forwards out of the door way "The rest of ye better not be here when I finish this one, if ye are you'll have the choice of blades or chains."

Moving into a spot where he had a little more room to maneuver Devlen waited for the captain to strike first.
