RP Thread: COMING SOON!
Discussion Thread: Forum/viewtopic.php?f=85&t=4713174

(For more organized discussion and fun facts) Discord Discussion: https://discord.gg/c5CFe5K5uS


Note: I would like to note that while I have done considerable research for time era, historical figures, and duties of various roles, this is a work of fiction. Events that never happened in reality will transpire for the sake of plot.

___________


The year is 1890, and things are beginning to get a little more heated than is ideal for anyone. It’s towards the end of the age in which privateers, and pirates are majorly active, and yet, somehow, it doesn’t look like the action is in any way slowing down.

Although their journey started in England, the privateers sent out to stop enemy merchant ships and pirates plundering the area of their homeland have wound up travelling from far and wide, well beyond the small section assigned to them, in hopes of catching the enemy before more damage can be done. Some go even further, and turn to piracy themselves, even after receiving their Letter of Marque from the Queen Victoria.

It’s well known that the enemy has been planning an invasion. News has finally reached the Queen herself. It was 2 years after news first arrived, when the first ship showed up on their territory, that Queen Victoria hired a band of privateers to carry out duties, blocking or stealing supplies from the enemy to cut them off, sinking enemy ships, taking prisoners for trial, should they find themselves under attack, and to receive a cut of the money from the captures, and to hold on to the majority of any loot they may take hold of.

However, not all is as it seems, as several privateers have in fact turned to piracy, becoming more and more active in the area. Now it’s the job of privateers to assist the Royal Navy in taking them down, should they come across traitors or pirates on the high seas. Life certainly is busy nowadays, never a moment to rest! Sometimes, privateers have been falsely accused of piracy, and face a hefty— and sometimes even fatal— trial and punishment for crimes they did not commit, as it’s quite common that privateer activity may look like piracy, although legal. It’ll be worth it I’m the end though if one can be successful, as the folks working for the Queen have been promised a handsome reward upon their success and return. The question is, is the risk worth it?
.



RULES



1. Be nice to other players. That means no insulting, no cruel jokes, no harassment. If you have issues with someone, bring it to me, and I will find a way to deal with the problem.

2. There will be ZERO tolerance for any kind of harassment whatsoever, this means instant ban for prejudice, be it sexism, racism, sexual-orientation related etc.

3. On the note of sexual orientation, please remember that this was 1800s. Very few people were out if they’re in the LGBTQ+ community, as there’s little support, and in several places, things relating to LGBTQ+ were deemed unacceptable, illegal, or frowned upon. I will not say in the rules it’s banned. Just be aware people are generally closeted, largely out of fear.

4. Mod's word is final.

5. Mods control timeskips/weather/time etc.

6. Questions and suggestions are always welcome!

7. You may have as many characters as you can actively play. Queen Victoria will be mentioned, but not a player character.

8. Characters of any gender may become privateers/pirates/Navy officers. I’m aware this is a change from history, but I dislike leaving people out, and don’t want to limit numbers. However, expect that women in the roles of Navy officers or privateers may be treated differently than men. This does not permit hateful commentary. I understand characters treating them differently, or occasionally throwing a comment out, but this should not in any way, shape or form, be the focus of a scene, and engaging in such activity will result in an immediate and permanent ban.

9. Romance is encouraged and permitted, but should not be a character's sole driving point. This is very much plot based.

10. Do not seriously harm or kill another person's character without their permission.

11. Don't get too graphic in depictions of battles/romantic scenes etc.

12. All CS rules apply at all times.

13. If a mod or your RP partner asks you to stop/slow down, please listen.

14. This is not a 1/1. There should be no more than 3 pages until everyone's had a chance to post.

15. Please no superpowers!

16. Plot ideas are to be run past a mod BEFORE being put into play, but please! Pitch ideas all you wish!

17. No super OP or "perfect" characters. Characters with seemingly no flaws will not be accepted.

18. NO godmodding or powerplaying except in the case that’s it’s agreed to by both players.

19. Please write at LEAST 3-4 sentences, give an RP partner something to work off of. The more, the better, but that’s the minimum requirement.

20. Please use the form provided. Adding is fine, but we need all the required information to be included.

21. Reservations last a week.

22. No playing your own love interest, it limits interaction.

23. Wait to be approved BEFORE RPing.

24. Keep chat and all in the chat thread, NOT the sign-ups! I don’t want to have to sort through 20+ pages to find 10 characters.

25. I reserve the right to change the rules, and such rules will be announced.

26. These rules are enforced. Failure to follow through will first result in a warning. A second offence calls for a 3 day ban. A third offence means a permanent ban from the RP.

27. You may play members of your own crew (for pirates and privateers) but I would certainly like to see mixes of RPers on one crew at some point.

28. Feel free to join a currently existing crew, or found your own.

29. In the Navy, Admirals and Fleet Admiral are in charge of promotions, rather than the mod (presuming mods are not in those roles) but please run it past the mods just so we’re aware, and there must be considerable REASON for said promotions.

30. Once you’ve signed up, or are interested, mark the discussion thread, or hop into the Discord.

31. No one under age 15 may join the Royal Navy. Someone becomes a Navy Seaman Recruit at age 18 automatically, until then, they serve as cabin boys/girls, and assist wherever needed, doing odd jobs on the ship. No one under 18 may become a privateer, and pirates, age does not matter.

32. Please no plot centred primarily around young children. Children are not banned, but plot should not centre largely around them.

33. Please no animals on board ships/in the Navy. For civilians, keeping pets is permitted.

34. If you’ve read and accepted these rules, put your favourite smiley in the sign-ups.

Re: On the High Seas [sign-ups, always O&A]

Given Name: Kaden Isaac Turner
Chosen Name: Kade
Epithet: "Shadowmaster" (epithet granted for his ability to stay in the shadows until the right moment to strike)

Age: 20
Gender: Cis Male

Personality: Kade is social enough. He likes making friends, and is kind to anyone who’s kind to him. He’s not the most courageous fellow, unfortunately, and hopes to work on becoming a braver soul in the near future. He's trying, taking on more dangerous assign,ends in hopes he may lose his fear. He's willing to take risks, to a degree, but sometimes needs to be pushed. He wants to help those around him, and enjoys the little things in life. He’s a hard worker, and he’s loyal to a fault. He'll do absolutely anything for his loved ones, even if it means he himself gets in trouble. He takes his job very seriously, sometimes able to do a complete turnaround from casual to professional in a very short period of time. He can be very formal when doing business, but is otherwise pretty peppy and upbeat, more than willing to reach out to try and make friends, and can go from casual to professional in the blink of an eye.

He might not look like much, but don't be fooled. Kade is an ambitious young man, though not in an aggressive way, per se. He’s a bit gullible, unfortunately, and quite clumsy when he’s not actively paying attention and trying to keep himself in check. Which contradicts his generally good sense of perception, but he IS a bit of a daydreamer. Also something he wants to work on.

He unfortunately suffers from bouts of SEVERE anxiety, bordering on paranoia when there’s genuine reason to be concerned, but he isn’t afraid to stand up for those who cannot or will not stand up for themselves. He likes the thought of an adventure, but unless he’s pushed into it, he won’t go out of his way to take part in one.

Kade has a dream to become a Vice-Admiral or, dare he push it, an Admiral one day, and he's determined to work towards it, though never at cost of others. More than anything else though, he seeks acknowledgement from his friends, from his allies, even from the currently standing Admirals themself. He’s done hard work, but often finds himself in an awkward position. After all, acknowledgement and being in the spotlight frequently are two different things, and he’s so far not so fond of the latter. He wants to make himself a better person, to keep moving forward, never to stand in one place too long.

Around people he’s found himself interested in, romantically or otherwise, Kade worries so much about not coming off wrong that, contracting his own intentions, unfortunately, he often becomes awkward and starts stammering, tripping over his own words, or backtracking on what he’s just said.

History: Kade's had a tricky past. All he lets on for now is that he was brought into the Navy when he was 15, and has served ever since. He’s known for taking on risky assignments, and is one of the fastest promoted officers of his division.

Crush: None yet. Open to discussion, pm.
Other Family: Dana Turner (younger sister)
Sexuality: Bi with a strong male lean.

Rank: Navy Commander
Desired Rank: Vice-Admiral/Admiral
Weapon of Choice: Royal Navy Cutlass
Secondary Weapon: Martial Arts

Appearance: Kade is 5'7, with a lean, but slightly muscular frame, and brown hair with the tips dyed alternating dark blue and magenta pink. His eyes are dark blue, and his skin has a light tan. (Couldn’t find an accurate picture)

Other: :lol:

Re: On the High Seas [sign-ups, always O&A]

Given Name: Hunter Cameron Mayhem

Epithet: "The Challenger" (epithet granted a year prior to the storyline, based on how many pirates and general criminals he had challenged and won against in a short period of time)

Age: 24
Gender: Cis male

Personality: Hunter is abrasive and brutally honest. If someone asks for his opinion— and sometimes even when they don’t— that’s exactly what they’ll get, whether it’s a popular opinion or not. He doesn’t tend to care what most people think of him on the surface, wanting to portray himself as not being overly sensitive, but he does silently care the thoughts of others regarding him, though has more than once expressed to his friends that while he cares, he would never change his brutal honesty or way of being for the sake of anyone or anything.

Hunter is quite judgemental, and has a hard time letting go of things. He has a hard time connecting with others, or vice-versa, he suspects, and is completely aware he’s not the most likeable man in the world. Far from it, in fact. He embraces that part of himself, mainly because he doesn’t see any room for improvement. He’s insecure and self-deprecating at times, even if he tries to hide it under false bravado, and wishes and longs for things he knows he can’t have. He detests those who are meek and openly cowardly, even if he himself isn’t the bravest soul in the world. Those who are afraid to stand up for themselves, in his opinion, are completely worthless. He has a hard time connecting to others largely due to these ideals.

Hunter may have an insecure mind state on occasion, but on the flipside of that is a genuine ego, fluctuating between said ego and insecurity. He’s unpredictable at the best of times to most wolves. Hunter is quite strong physically, and mentally too, if being stubborn as a mule and hardheaded counts. He also loves a good fight now and then, loves being right in the action. It’s what feels natural. Largely because all his life he’s had to fend for himself.

Hunter has his good points too though. He’s protective, even at risk of himself, and once he connects with someone, he sticks like glue. He'll never try to fight someone else's battles for them, but he'll never stand by and watch a fight he knows will end badly either. He likes being the centre of attention, isn't afraid to take credit for things, though this has led him to being quite prideful, and perhaps a bit stuck-up. He has his friends' best intentions at heart though.

Crush: None yet. Open to discussion, pm.
Sexuality: Considers himself gay as he has yet to have attraction to women, but he’s never been in a relationship before, so he is uncertain.

Rank: Lieutenant (newly appointed)
Desired Rank: Captain or Commander

Weapon of Choice: Smallsword
Secondary Weapon: Spear
Appearance: 5'10, with blond hair stopping just past his shoulders, and a lean, quite muscular frame. He has dark greenish brown eyes, and deeply set facial features.
Other: :lol:

Re: On the High Seas [sign-ups, always O&A]

Postby sunhorsestar » Wed Apr 06, 2022 8:04 am

Given Name: Connall Walker
Epithet: "Phoenixfang" (epithet granted 5 years ago, exact reason unknown. He claims it was due to walking through fire in pursuit of an enemy.)

Age: 30
Gender: Cis Male

Personality: Connall is brave and yet not an inherent risk-taker. He’s a strategist, likes to plan out his moves in advance before he makes them, so he doesn’t end up like his brother. He’s kind and patient in general, but reserved. It’s hard to crack his shell. He'll share his history, he'll be nice, but he won’t reveal much about his inner self or true personality without either good strategical reason, or genuine trust.

Connall is easily flustered despite a hardened, slightly cold outer face, and is quite often in denial the times he’s put on the spot. He’s a leader figure, but not by choice. He’d much prefer to be a follower, as used to leading as he is. He struggles with high anxiety, yet does his best to conceal it for fear it would cause his crew to waver or become more anxious themselves.

Connall is a thrill-seeker. He loves the adrenaline, loves the adventure, loves the risks that come with his work. However, he’s well aware that those same risks could lead to serious trouble, and does what he can to avoid it coming to that. Disguising himself as a pirate in order to not draw enemy attention to himself as a privateer, he’s run into tricky situations more than once, and twice had a scarily narrow escape.

With people he doesn’t know or care about, Connall can on occasion come off as cold and unfeeling. He'll be respectful, but that’s about it. With enemies, he has no mercy, even when perhaps he should. However, with the people he’s close to, Connall is a very openly affectionate man. He’s happy to display his care and support in any way he can, even at the detriment of himself.

History: Connall isn’t shy about his history. He was originally no more than a civilian with a dream to be part of something big. At age 16, he lost his father. His mother became distant and estranged. At age 19, he became an official privateer alongside his brother, who sadly passed away the following year in a battle. By the time Connall was aged 24, he had taken on countless assignments, made a name for himself with all the ships sunk and captures made. When he was 25, he was given an epithet. Since then, he’s been summoned by Queen Victoria to assist in taking down their enemies.

Crush: None yet, open to discussion, pm
Other Family: William Walker (older brother, deceased), Jane Walker (mother), Thomas Walker (father, deceased)
Sexuality: Bi with no particular lean.

Rank: Privateer Captain
Crew: Red Rose Crew (ship: The Lady Elizabeth)

Weapon of Choice: Musket
Secondary Weapon: Rapier
Appearance: A mountain of a man, standing at 6'5, Connal has a broad, sturdy frame, and plenty of muscle. He has pale blue eyes, and dark olive skin, set features, and prioritizes fashion over comfort.

Other: :lol:

Re: On the High Seas [sign-ups, always O&A]

Given Name: Micah Tariah
Epithet: "Nightowl Guardian" (epithet given for her being up frequently into the early hours of morning, yet still able to keep a watchful eye. Often appears to others as if she just doesn’t rest.)

Age: 19
Gender: Cis Female

Personality: Micah is sarcastic and sassy at times, usually by accident. She is a fast thinker, and on the outside talks like she thinks highly of herself, though usually this comes across in a joking manner. She’s cheery and energetic, and is very much an in-your-face kind of girl. However, she’s a liiiiittle depressed on the inside, and genuine self-esteem is an issue for her. She tries her best not to let this show for the sake of the people around her, and...she’s been working on trying to make a recover. She has an odd relationship with other people. She both appreciates and conflicts with people like herself, and she’s definitely an example of opposites attract. She finds people with contrast with her own personality to be interesting, and will often watch them from a distance, and on occasion approach them directly in an attempt to make conversation.

Micah believes everyone has potential for greatness, and sometimes she has fantastical ideas. However, on the flipside, if something doesn’t quite make sense to her, she says, and she says so bluntly. She doesn’t care all that much if she hurts someone's feelings, as long as she’s made herself clear. If she disagrees, that’s that. She never sugarcoats ANYTHING for someone else's sake. That said, she won’t go out of her way to hurt anyone and is an affectionate person, even if she has odd ways of showing it and finds it difficult at times. She’s very opinionated that she’s right and everyone else is wrong if they don’t agree, which is somewhat ironic. She isn’t completely inflexible though and when she sees the sense in things, is willing to change her views or how she greets a situations, and when life takes her down a new path, while she may be uneasy, she always is willing to take a chance.

Micah's intentions aren’t always clear, and can fluctuate day to day. She's very stubborn and strong-headed, she never backs down from anything she believes in, and has a hard time because of these aspects fitting in socially. Sometimes when she DOES connect with people, in anxiety or if they stop seeing eye to eye with her on the scale of ethics and morals, she will turn her back rather quickly, not always permanently, but at least until she recovers. She’s a lone wolf at first, but she doesn’t want to be that way forever. Micah is sceptical and suspicious initially, and tends to see the bad in people before the good, so that she can choose friends wisely. The people she connects to, for the most part, she sticks with them, but isn’t afraid to take risks and branch out from time to time. She can experiment and take a leap of faith.

Micah is also very goofy when she’s in a good mood, cheery and upbeat, and is always willing to joke around with people, even if one of her methods of humour is mockery— all in good fun, of course!— and in turn, loves receiving it. She’s always going to be one to break the silence with a bad joke or trash talking a friend to get someone to react to it and get conversation flowing, even if her statements and jokes may come out of nowhere. Sometimes, sadly, she has no idea when she’s taken it too far.

Micah is imaginative, sometimes overly so, and has a strong creative streak. She is focused on whatever task is at hand, and rarely lets herself stray from that unless there’s some emergency. Micah is naturally drawn to those who share mindset or traits with her, though whether this is a good thing or a bad thing remains to be seen. She likes to take the lead, and leaves little room for argument when she’s set her mind to something. She considers herself ambitious and a natural leader, and enjoys having control over a situation. Micah is always up for a challenge- provided it’s not truly impossible, and likes to see life as a book or other sort of fiction, where someone writes their own story.

Crush: None yet. Open to discussion, pm
Sexuality: Bi with a slight female lean.

Rank: Pirate Lookout
Crew: Undetermined Crew

Weapon of Choice: Cutlass
Secondary Weapon: Crossbow
Appearance: 5'5, Asian, with slightly wavy dark brown hair, eyes so dark blue they’re almost black, and dark olive skin. Dresses simply in general. Dislikes dresses, though wears simple ones, as is "required" of women.

Other: As this is set in the U.K., I feel the need to explain this. She is of Asian heritage, though her parents had lived in Europe at the time of her birth.

( Image of Sensui Kanzaki from Gibiate. )

Weapon of Choice: Spadroon ( Lightweight Naval sword. )
Secondary Weapon: Pair of daggers.

Crush: Currently none.
Other Family: Siblings and parents are deceased.

    Given Name: Oliver Colton Callis.
    Chosen Name: Colton.
    Epithet: Rat or Ratter.( He is good at weeding his way out of trouble and likes to play games with prisoners/enemies. )
    Age: 29 Years
    Gender: Male
    Sexuality: Heterosexual.

    Personality: Colton's personality changed drastically after the death of his father and the feeling of betrayal he felt for his first captain, this has led him to be somewhat untrusting of most people, especially new people. He is well known to test them by playing games with them and teasing them to try and figure out their incentives. Once he trusts someone, he is far more relaxed and will play nice, however he always keeps a barrier between himself and others. He doesn't like it when he thinks someone is going behind his back and he will call them out on the spot. He can often be a bit harsh, but he is a lot more considerate of those on his crew as he respects them more for their teamwork and loyalty. He is however unforgiving.

    History: Colton grew up on dry land with his mother and his siblings, his father would visit but he often worked away. He was the lucky member of his family as when Colton was only fifteen years old, his three siblings and his mother passed away shortly after catching Scarlet Fever. His father at the time was working on a pirate crew and when he heard news of what had happened he asked the captain to allow Colton to join the crew despite his age being young. Colton joined the crew and did his best, he was set to work as a Chores boy and did the worse jobs imaginable. He grew through the ranks as he aged and worked hard. When he was only nineteen, his father was killed in conflict with the Royal Navy, leaving Colton without any family. He was devastated. Learning shortly after that his captain had deliberately sent his father to his death by making him fight a fight he knew he would not win, Colton was angry. He rallied together the rest of the crew and together they took over the ship and Colton became Captain.

    Appearance: Colton, aka Rat, is an averaged sized man with a slightly muscular build; but nothing on the extreme. He has slightly pinked skin which is often tanned due to spending so much time aboard the ship in the sun. He has scruffy black, unkempt hair, which touches his shoulders, due to never being brushed and being cut very rarely. His eyes are brown in colour.

    Other: British accent.
    More skilled with blade combat with the element of surprise, weakness in gun war-fare and brute force.

( Image of Yume from Hai to Gensou no Grimgar. )

    Rank: Privateer Crewmen.
    Desired Rank: Unknown.
    Crew: Red Rose Crew ( The Lady Elizabeth. )
Weapon of Choice: French Musket.
Secondary Weapon: Simple knife.

Crush: Currently none.
Other Family: Her parents live on dry land. Her brother is deceased.

    Given Name: Rose Harriet Anne
    Chosen Name: Harriet
    Epithet: Eagle Eye ( Due to her sharp shooting ability. )
    Age: 24 Years
    Gender: Female
    Sexuality: Heterosexual.

    Personality: Harriet is pretty clumsy and not very sure of herself or what she is supposed to do; she can sometimes be caught standing around looking very lost. That being said, she does work hard when given a task and her long range combat sills are worthy enough for her to be able to hold onto the crewman rank without being demoted. She does take her role seriously, especially in times of combat, but she does also enjoy to let her hair down from time to time in order to keep moral high.

    History: Harriet had a pretty average upbringing on land, her parents were both merchants and she was aiming to take over that role growing up. Her elder brother was on board a Navy ship when he was killed by pirates. Harriet's brothers death made her wish to hunt down pirates however her poor skills with hand to hand combat meant that no Navy officer would accept her aboard their ship. Harriet was however accepted upon a Privateer ship, however coming into conflict also with the Navy has led to her having some complicated feelings about both sides. Her parents oppose the idea of her working aboard a ship.

    Appearance: Harriet has naturally dark red/ginger hair which is long in length, she keeps it together in a plat to ensure it doesn't interfere with everyday life. She has dark brown eyes and light coloured skin. She is on the small side and is very slender.

    Other: Terrible at close range combat.
