Haha, sorry about that. The forum wasn't being very kind to me.

Yeah, the forum has been having major issues for the last couple hours Khavali xD

I'm excited to see this RP with all these neat characters

Name: Rion Blackwood
Gender: Male
Age: 18

Appearance:The two markings that appear to be tattoos under his eyes won't be there until later when he earns them. Same for the marking that appears on his hand.

Personality: He's young and adventurous, reckless even. Rion knew that the pirate life was for him the moment he set sail for the first time. He's passionate about his shipmates and more passionate about finding treasure. Most of all, he's not afraid to do what needs to be done, if the cap'n needs him to swing from the crow's nest, he'll be the first one up there waiting for the command.

History/Biography: Rion's past is somewhat of a cliche, his mother was an inn keeper, his father supposedly a sea merchant. She hid the truth from him that he was in fact a pirate and once he learned of her pregnancy, abandoned her and never returned. It wasn't until his early teens that he discovered the truth while she laid on her death bed. From that moment forward, he did everything he could to get on a ship but no crew would take him for being so young. Since his 18th birthday however, he's practically lived on the docks and waited for a crew to accept him.

Everyone here is amazing. Can't wait to get started. Okay, though, who wants to be on the same ship as me?

Hmm good question. I think we all need to figure out where our character originated from first. I know you mentioned the north in your post. I was thinking the north or south west for myself!

With my character being linked to yours, he'd have to originate from the same place; thus we'd likely end up on the same ship :D

Also,it wouldn't hurt to have a bit more information about each region :)

Ahh, you don't have to join me, I'm not even insisting. It's just that I'd like ya to.

Name: James Wright
Gender: Male
Age: 22

Appearance: James

Personality: Depending on the situation James' personality can change drastically. If the situation is important or serious like a losing battle or an escape from prison then james will act more silent and professional than he would if the situtation was less important. He usually acts rather charismatic and tries to get as many people to look past the colour of his skin and see his personality more than where he came from.

History/Biography: James was born in Africa to a name he has long gotten rid of. His father was a hunter and his mother had died during childbirth. As a result, he was often malnourished as a child and grew to be weak for his young life. His weakness was soon fixed by his father who taught james how to hunt and how to cook from a much younger age than he should have actually been taught. James idolized his father and tried as much as he could to be like him. That is, until the slavers arrived at James' humble village. They had strange skin and weaponry, curved shiny objects that could cut through something much better than james' primitive spear ever could. He had hoped that the strange people had come to make peace with the village and possibly even give him one of those curved shiny things, but the strange people's intent was a lot more devious than James' expectations.

The strange people overwhelmed the village and captured just about everyone. james was separated from his father in what would be the last time he would ever see him in his life. James was put on a boat next to many members of his village along with a lot of other people he had never seen before. It was many days before the boat stopped and had reached land. James was chained with many of the other people and had to wait many hours until he was moved again. He was taken to a sort of podium where people were shouting and arguing in some illegible gibberish. James would later realize that this was the point in which he had been sold as a slave.

James was lucky though, he had been sold to a richer family who had bought james as a sort of playmate/servant to their young son around james age. They taught him English and how to read and write. His life was pretty good considering what other people had gone through as slaves, the beatings were minimal, he was provided with enough food to survive, he got to see new places when he went around with his 'master'.

The boy that James was paired with had no prejudices towards race. For someone whose father was a slave trader he was surprisingly not racist. He treated James as if they were equal to a point and actually became best friends with him as time went on. He even demanded that James came with him when he attended his sailing classes. James practically learned all there was about sailing during his time with his friend who would help him in later life.

When James and his 'master' were 22, James' master made a tough decision. He was to leave home to join the navy and he knew James couldn't come. He helped James escape the man who had bought him and got him onto a ship headed back to Africa. Which was promptly attacked and seized by pirates. James was transferred a few times and has heard about getting some sort of brand or something.

Wow Mr Pink, I've used that name before, in both stories and RPs--but I spelled the last name as Rite instead of write xD

Wasn't sure if you noticed but my character above is also named Rion, just spelled more fantasy. Might be confusing.

My character is an eager young man ready to do anything for his shipmates and especially his captain so if that's something you're looking for, swing by the docks, he's always there waiting for a crew that'll take him.
