Introduction
Haven't you always wanted to be a pirate? When you were a kid, there was just something so romantic and heroic about sailing the seven seas and doing what you want, when you want. Digging up treasure and finding adventure at every rotation of the sun is just so appealing to you in every way. So you become a pirate. You swab the deck and maintain the ship while your captain sits pretty in his cabin, planning your next adventure. Mutiny may cross your mind, but that's a dangerous thing to do even if it does work. So you wait to see what the next day brings...
You must either join a ship or create one. All new ships must be approved in the OOC forum.
Current ships available:
+Neptune's Whore- Captained by Wild Kaitlyn Standley
+Cupid's Corsair- Captained by Mad Charity Bonney
+The Dark Avenger- Captained by Misfortunate Alexander Ngor
+The Black Merchant- Captained by "Red Rum" Samuel Blake
In your description include what ship you are a member of, the name of your Captain, and what type of crewman you are (first mate, general crew, cook, etc...).
If you have any questions, please contact me via PM.
Remember, I will be accepting new characters until every ship has a decent crew of at least six.
Taking place in...

The flat, geocentric world we've all come to know and love... and fear.

Kaitlyn has found a map to a treasure that could hold the secret to eternal life and is going after it, but so is everyone else because word travels fast on the sea.

Sonya followed her captain into the bar. It reminded her days before piracy. The smell of alcohol was strong, and it made Sonya long for a drink, but she ignored her longings. She stared at the bartender. He had an odd look about him. She cringed. He reminded her of her half brother. She absentmindedly twisted her hair around her fingers. As she walked, the click, click, click, of boots filled the odd silence as she walked. She tilted her head and stopped, waiting for something to happen.
Kaitlyn glanced over her maps a third time, charting their route and trying to figure out how long the trip would be. "I'll hav'ta keep port another week!" She yelled, slamming her hands on the table and standing up. She was studying her weather charts and found that the waters would be too rough to travel further out. She wasn't going to endanger her crew that way, not if she knew it could be helped. If there were even a way around the storms of the season, she would've taken it. As it was she would have to tell her crew of their misfortune.
Alexander withdrew the gun covered temporarily by the red handkerchief and pocketed them both back in his coat. "Information.. you were once yourself a pirate weren't you?" The bartender froze at Alexander's words. "That is true mate, how such a young fella like yourself knows bout that?" the bartender tossed a question back, sitting himself down with an odd gut feeling they had much to talk about. "Your complexion is burnt by sun of high and long hours of exposure, your nails have not the sheen of a man who does nothing but pour drinks but the dirt under a nail that has been digging endlessly for something.. " Alexander relaxedly toyed with his eyepatch. "Plus.. you smell and talk like a man who worked for Blackbeard." The bartender said nothing, taken off guard by this stranger in a dark cloak wearing an eyepatch that appeared to be sewn deep into his skin never to be removed again. "Is that you Marius boy!" Alexander gritted his teeth at that familiar name, suddenly grasping the man's collar with a glint of murder in his fine eye. "Never call me by that name.. now tell me.. where is that map you have been digging?" Alexander asked, cutting straight to the point, watching the man's adam's apple shift as he took quite a big gulp of fear. "It be taken by a young lady pirate herself, Captain Wild Kaitlyn Standley." Alexander closed his eyes sighing to himself as he released the bartender somewhat suddenly to the point his back had almost hit the wall. Captain Ngor stood up fully off the stool as his fingers toyed around in his pockets checking his gun were in order. He glanced back with a wink to his fellow crew members before making his haste exit. Tonight they would start searching the docks and the whole damn town if they had to. They were going to get their hands on that wretched map.
When he reached an isolated spot in the town, he turned around at last to assign his crew orders. "I want you two taking the north side." He directed the two men before looking over at the female whose name he was still yet to learn. "And you and I will be taking the south side." he said formally, with nothing on his mind but business; finding that damn map. He turned his head to exhcnage glances with all of them. "Start from there and fan out, we search for a Captain Wild Kaitlyn Standley tonight or be it her crew but better yet, find and steal the map by force if you have to. Meet back at the ship when you're done." Alexander finished with not a moment to lose, turning his back with his head hung low with no doubt they would be successful in this endeavor.

Rosaline walked briskly back to the docking port, nervous tension filling the air that she breathed. She knew that the Dark Avenger was nearby. But walrning everyone of the danger would be impossible. The whole crew was scattered amongst the town and ship, managing supplies. Whatever came she would face it. Wether that meant being impossibly overwhelmed, defending herself, or death. Rosaline stood at the entrance of the docks, awaiting the arrival of what would come.

The bartender had been easily scared. She had to admit, at first glance her captain was pretty scary, but hell, weren't they all? She waited for further orders. She wouldn't talk unless she was required too. The other crew members were already gone, they were obviously a lot more exprienced.

Captain Ngor frowned a little though it was hard to notice nicely tucked underneath the neckish cover of his coat. He had ordered the woman to check for weapons discreetly, yet she had done it in a manner that the man could very well notice. The frown soon faded though, as nothing unexpected occured and all along he had the revolver ready in his hand should something go wrong. The woman seemed to ignore the remark, simply answering her captain before rolling her eyes. "That's all he's got." Alexander refocused on the weapons on the ground as the talk continued, "I don't want no trouble wit' you. But from what I've 'eard, I don't think it would be a problem for me to join you. I don't have a particular reason, sir, but I also don' have any reason not too-- 'less you say no of course... And which I'll be on my merrily way." Alexander was about to voice his opinion but overheard the woman say quitely, "Go on your merrily way then.
The captain sighed, placing his revolver back inside his coat pocket. He didn't trust the stranger yet and would be sure to keep his eye on him but for now would give him the benefit of the doubt. "Congratulations, welcome to me crew." was all he said shaking the stranger's hand before continuing in the direction of the docks expecting the two to follow behind. "Milady, we head for the docks." he said in plan to search the ships for the one Captain Wild Kaitlyn Standley sailed on in hopes to find the lost map.
