(You are a part of the crew on a Pirate ship in the Far North. Lately, your captain's luck has been less than ideal, and he's been taking more and more risks... Now, he's done something really stupid. You're just guarding the door, waiting for your crew to come back from raiding a very, very wealthy man's ship.)

A bang comes from the other side of the airlock, then a sizzle and the door begins melting. After a moment, five men come through followed by what is clearly the guy with authority here. And he's pointing a pistol at you.

"Drop it or I drop you."
