Plot In A Nutshell (TL;DR):
After a large cruise ship sinks, the passengers and crew members are left afloat in the vast ocean. Some are lucky enough to wash ashore on a tropical island.
They convene and put together some sort of civilization, but trouble brews when peoples start to doubt those in charge. Not only that, but an unknown force inhabits the island, scattering what little mind they have left.
It's important to note that the Captain is not the center of the RP, I just wanted to write from his perspective.

Rules:
In general, don't be a jerk.
PG-13.
I don't really care about cussing, so do whatever you want with that.
Let's keep genders and positions even please. No five medics, and one musician and engineer.
Captain's pretty important to initial post, if anyone wants to scoop up that position. Not much during RP, though, unless character(s) prefer.
Based around 1926, so nothing modern and fancy like that.
I wrote the Captain as a "he", because considering the time, they probably would not have allowed a woman to be a Captain.

Mine ((And to be clear, I didn't grab the Captain position at the start. He was relevant to the plot, so he kinda had to be alive...))
Name: Joseph Leonardo Ghent
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Fears:
Thunderstorms/Hurricanes ((Especially at sea.))
Loss ((As is the things he has grown attached to.))
Reptiles ((They're freaky as shit, tho.))
Position: Captain
Personality: Normally strict and very "by-the-rules", he can usually relax after a few glasses of wine, or bottles of beer. He wouldn't describe himself as a heavy drinker, but he really is, though certainly not on the job. He gets attached to things and people very quickly, and when they leave, or he looses them, he's usually hurt emotionally. To combat this, he's formed sort of a barrier around himself, and hesitates to get attached to anyone, or anything. But to those who have managed to slip past, he holds very dear to his heart, and in contrast to his normal personality is very gentle and kind with them. Armed with a sharp tongue, he really is built for commanding, holding firm in his beliefs and own sense of justice.
History: His father was a fisherman, who constantly brought him to sea with him to work. Joseph found he loved everything about it, and was determined to become the Captain of a boat. However, one day his father was out at sea when a hurricane struck, making him realize the dangers that life at sea brought. Though this was indeed a scary thought, he persisted. However, there was the matter of World War I, and he was draft in the middle of his schooling to become a Captain in the first place. After, he worked hard to graduate and this is his first real large job, and is fairly new at being a Captain, really.
Pic/Description:
Other: Has multiple scars from his time on the battlefield, though he usually tries to cover them.
Also has a strange love for cats.
