Welcome to the RPG: True Pirates!


Ok, yes this is an RP, yes this is about pirates. But it is NOT Potc, ok understand, good! Basically this is an RP for those who love pirating, the true pirating, the thieving, swearing, looting glory of it all. :D Sound good, good. First some rules:

I'm a pretty advanced RPer (not that you have to be by any means, because I'm new to shipping lol) so just a few guidelines:

1. No power playing- Simple enough, its not nice. Generally if the RP group finds you obnoxious in power playing, you're out.
2. Past tense- Instead of "He wakes up and looks around him." use, "He woke up and looked around him." Its a little easier to read
3. No super characters- Characters have weaknesses, it makes it interesting. Mix your characters up, make them originals! This also means no characters identical to any from Potc, (i.e. Jack, Will) And please please, give some consideration to their garmets, if they all look the same it's pretty boring.
4. Mutiny is not acceptable. Period.
5. Be polite- wiki is busy at the moment, wait for the edit button, don't just grab it :D
6. HAVE FUN!- We can work most problems out talking, and there probably wont be any, but those are just some guidelines!



Nautical Glossary

True Pirates Banners


Character Set Up

At the bottom of the character description mention what part of the crew you'd like to be. You may not nessercarily get to be this person, but we'll work it out. Remember for the most part it's first come, first serve, with perhaps the exception of First Mate. When creating your characters, remember we need a full crew, so some suggestions:

Captian- (this is going to be me so there are no arguments over who gets to be it, although I'd personally rather be a cook, lol)
1st mate
2nd mate
Cook
Deckswabbers
Crow's nest lookout
Captives
Monkey (You can be a talking monkey for all I care, just make it UNIQUE!)

For your character descriptions, please include the things below. Don't worry about it being too long, thats fine. If you *must* eliminate somethings thats ok, just give a reason. (i.e. no history because they don't remember, ect)

Username:
Character's name:

The Edited True Pirate's Pirate Code:
(Original from: Ship and Pirate Terms

1. Everyone shall obey orders- except of course when Lylith is being silly in which case smack her over the head and she'll probably change them
2. Booty will be shared out as follows: Everything goes out equally
3. Anyone keeping secret of attempting to desert will be marooned. He may take only a flask of gunpowder, a bottle of water, a gun and some shot.
4. The punishment for hitting a man is having to sit through a long lecture from Ly.
5. Anyone being lazy or failing to clean his weapons will lose his share of booty.
6. Everyone may vote on all important decisions.
7. Everyone may have a share of captured drink and fresh food.
8. Anyone found stealing from another member of crew will have to endure yet another lecture, pay for the item as well as return it, and may be sent ashore if it was out of malice.
9. Gambling with cards and money is a popular pastime, always make sure you have a deck with you (*laughs* originally this was forbidden, but Ly loves her cards)
10. There is no 10, because 10 was originally: The penalty for bringing a woman aboard in disguise is death, which is just rediculous when the cap't is a woman.
11. No one may leave the crew until each man has made 1,100 pounds.
12. The compensation of losing a limb is 800 silver dollars... and a lot of sympathy.

2004-02-03 [thestranger]: Sure, like I said, first come first serve... I just had to make sure some person I didnt kno was first mate, so its all yours

2004-02-03 [test_drive]: YAY!

2004-02-03 [SapphireDragon]: so what do we do? do we add our char and then apply for a part on the ship? I call crows nest btw ^^

2004-02-03 [thestranger]: just add it and add who you want to be... no applying or anything, its just in case we have people arguing over who wants to be what

2004-02-03 [SapphireDragon]: oh ok *runs off to add*

2004-02-03 [Captain Nia]: I'm thinking of joining...what's the second mate's job(s)?

2004-02-03 [thestranger]: Nothing in particular yet... we'll have to work that out later because I'm not that familiar with the positions

2004-02-03 [Captain Nia]: hmmm....maybe I'll join...I'll have to think up a character becasue the one I usually use I'm using for the Atlis RPG

2004-02-03 [test_drive]: u know, i have a whole dictionary of nautical terms n jobs...if u'd like, [thestranger]. i could help u out on some terms n stuff

2004-02-03 [Captain Nia]: OOOO!!! You could help all of us with that kinda info....

2004-02-03 [Captain Nia]: there are so many jobs on a ship.....but I have an Idea for the navigating thing...if I get my character together enough that I can enter a profile and I get the job...then you and I could take turns...or you could take turns with whoever is the 2nd mate

2004-02-03 [test_drive]: o well...i'll just go on with the gloassary n leave questions for later

2004-02-03 [thestranger]: Go ahead with the glossary, if you find other jobs feel free to add them here, I'm going to take navagator down then

2004-02-14 [AccountKiller]: He was a live for almost a 900 years, and in his living time he has gone to various colleges of magic and learned many forms and stuff and he was just real bad ass but their main stink was because he had telepathy..

2004-02-29 [Wild~Fire]: are there any positions that are absolutely not already used or are very few? I was thinking of a "captive" but that would make four of them (I think I counted it right on the "Character Page") Either way let me know otherwise I writing down Captive.

2004-02-29 [thestranger]: you could just be a deckswabber, we dont have many of those, but captive is fine
