The dual-wheel idea would probably work the best, I think. Rotate them a bit like trim on an aircraft, but with pitch and yaw being the only two directions of travel.

Could make it very simple with some sort of lever that is just climb, stay level, and descend? Kinda like a blimp would work, I assume. It would make the pirate ship unable to do climbs like a plane, and that climbing and descending would be more akin to an elevator?


Perhaps like a flying submarine?

I'm definitely feeling some firefly and stardust inspiration for this RP. But maybe that's just me.

Captains are totally lame, you always gotta go higher up the food chain to find the bad dudes.

I'll be honest, when I was drinking and on no sleep writing alex, it was after watching Evil Dead, Dead by dawn, and Army of Darkness, and it took every bit of my power to not give him a chainsaw hand. But I still went with the A Williams name.

edit: I added the van becasue I think van helsing is a badass character

AND, finally, I've actually completed my character sheet. Which, @Isengrim, you may find on the fourth page of the interest check. It is long as all hell, by far the longest CS I've ever written, so please don't bother to read it unless you have half an hour to kill.

@knighthawkSeems more resembling Malcolm Reynolds, though I'll admit I'm very partial to Firefly.

Well there's a fair amount of ol' Captain Tight-pants, to be sure. Even the name: Malcolm 'Mal' Reynolds; Wilton 'Wilt' Grady. Hell, I should have shortened it to 'Wil' just to complete the symmetry :P

There's a hefty dose of Jim Raynor in there too, more than just the picture for inspiration.

I guess I'll have to distinguish him a bit more. Since their origins are fairly similar - ex-soldier-turned-outlaw - I'll have to make Grady's personality more distinct. Need to make sure he stays more on the asshole side, and not so much the lovable rogue. I also think he isn't as clever as Mal - his solutions could be more "Well let's attack it head on," and I think the rest of his officers are going to be the ones to say "What if we do this ingenious plan instead?"

Still kind of a work in progress then.

Also, sorry I posted everyone's characters - I'm realizing now that it makes more sense for you to have done so, so you can change them as you want instead of going through me. Wasn't really thinking that one through. I can 'delete' my entries if you guys want to post your CS there again.

Good idea. Some GM's put it down themselves so players don't keep tweaking their characters after acceptance.

Just so everybody knows, I am perfectly comfortable with anybody using any random extra crewmates I mention. Go ahead and give them their own personality if they don't have one already, especially if it helps with our characters interactions.

This means that @knighthawk and @November can go ahead and use any of the other three characters (Jory/the Brideson twins) now or in our little mission!

@Kimiyosis Youch! Hope you feel better soon!

@Shikaru @Nightwarden @Kierkegaard thanks for the interest! Feel free to come up with a character and run it by me either here or in PM before posting it in the character thread. Just take a look at our other current characters to get an idea of what types our party needs. Lemme know if you have any questions!

Just started a new job today, so I'm still getting situated. I'll be less active over the coming days but I'll try my best to make at least a post a day.

ALSO: ...@Isengrim. You still haven't updated Vylnmor's CS. I promise not to add anything else, it's done.

oh btw... he can also breathe fire and call upon the gods (EVERY God) to vanquish all that stand in his way. Forgot to add that in there

I'll try to have a character up tonight or tomorrow - I'm busy with finals, but we'll see if I can't find time to write up a sheet.

Sorry for the lateness, it's a bit of a busy week for me. In other news, my post turned out a bit long, and I'm pretty tired now, so if anyone notices any glaringly obvious mistakes, let me know. Now, let's all have fun raiding the ship in a good, pirate-like manner.

I can initiate the attack post, or you can, isen. Which do you prefer? If I do, I'll only advance to the boarding, so it won't be a super long post

Those moment's when you're tempted to change your character's appearance........

this for when she's normal, and this when she's gone berserk. Well...minus the reaper and the scythe of course.

I'll post when I can, feeling a bit under the weather.

@Isengrim Could I get a general description of the ship, or does it not matter.
