Found this, not sure if you have a map but for those who don't know the carribean too well it might be useful.(don't worry, it's probably because you didn't invest as much time in sid meiers pirates as an addict like me) Btw Grall, where does the ship start out? And does our captain have a letter of marque from any country or is he employed by a merchant company or is he freelance? (You don't have to answer now)
Player Name: Zyver Wyrdmake Character Name: Antti Isosenpoika Class/Job: Lookout Native Country: Finland Age: 34 Gear: -Flintlock Rifle equipped with a bayonet (detachable) -Spyglass -Weather beaten leather coat -Dirty grey shirt -High-quality linen pants -High-quality leather boots Traits: Excellent Marksman Sharp Eyes Flaws: Bad Brawler Backstory: Antti Isosenpoika was born to an average farmer family somewhere in Northern-Finland, close to the Baltic-sea. Typical farmer life made the young boy into a strong man who eventually got the scent of wanderlust and left the farm, much to the dismay of his parents. He found himself in Turku.. there he drank enough alcohol to make God Himself angry. The next time he woke up and looked around, he found himself in London. He winded up on a privateer ship, where he somehow was put into the mast as the ship's lookout. He didn't mind, but the ship's captain minded a bit when he realised that Antti did not speak English. The ship's quartermaster, a man by the name of John Rogers, volunteered to teach him and Antti quickly grasped the basics, swiftly becoming fluent in the language. Years later in the gutters of the Nassau, Antti met an old acquaintance who he had not seen for a while. John Rogers, now captain John Rogers, had looked at him and offered the Finnish man a lookout's job aboard his own ship. Naturally, Antti Isosenpoika took the job and has ever since served under captain John Rogers command.
i am also a big big fan of sidmeyers pirates . the ship is a dirty old schooner, 5 cannons of each side, it got topsels and royals, it got a small crew compartment with a bunch of hammock too close for any real comfort, it has a fair cargo space since a 5 cannoned schooner is the bit larger of the kind. though the biggest personal room is by far the captains quarters, also it got no brig since that was traded in for more cargo space. the captain is declared pirat by all other than the english, yet posses no letters of maque, he is a drunk old irishman EDIT. Also im thinking of starting it up tonight, and if others would want to join, then they could just be part of the last of the crew, with is about, all in all 15 people ATM with is a semi large number for a schooner.
pirates.... i love pirates, i dont need to get into another RP, but screw it, the pirate theme is like a siren call, and i used to play sid meyers pirates a lot as well, i never actually saved any of his family though, just went around and attacking anything that wasnt british since i had some agreement with them (cant remember the name, but i was basically a privateer for them) Player name: Bjorn Hardrada Character name: Camillus Andrais Native: Scotland Age: 31 class: deckhand (for now at least ) appearance: shoulder length, bright red hair, braided beard HEAVY Scottish accent Gear: a thick leather trenchcoat (basically works like leather armor) an old, brown, stained shirt, was originally green a long, long time ago worn, brown pants black leather boots a finely made cutlass which he stole from his last captain Traits: swordsman: knows how to fight effectively with any sharp object, and can be very deadly in melee nimble: has learned to fast, and to be quite as well Flaws: greedy: is overly ambitious and will try his best to increase his position in any situation, and may risk himself or others if it would lead to him getting just a little bit richer
hmmm, even though you are greedy, im taking the flintlock you can steal or buy one soon enough, all else is totally fine by me look at it like this, you get the fine cutlass becouse if your greed.
