[OOC] Ancient Piracy

[Roleplayer001]

My Character

Name: Ryssa 'Rys' Daughter of Bet'anya
Appearance: (Male)


{Female}

Nationality: Half Egyptian/Roman
Bio: Born to a whore and taught the art of theivery and a good deal of self defense against Legonaries. Ryssa saw no reason to sell herself on the streets of Rome and sought to return to Egypt. Boarding a ship as a 'lad' she found it to be captured by pirates and joined the crew eagerly. Seeking the riches they could provide as well as the transport to Alexandria.

Born somewhere in Egypt, Amentuankh doesn't speak much about where he came from though he carries an air of someone who expects to be obeyed. It doesn't take too long to figure out a lot about Amen though. Amen is successful, and even more than that Amen isn't afraid to show that off. And the reason for Amen's success? He claims to be blessed by a foreign goddess of war, Ishtar. The reality? Connections. Cities where Amentuankh takes port consider him a friend. The merchants who buy his dubious goods trust him. The brothel girls smile at his presence because of his innate charm, or at least because he can knows how to place goods.

It should be noted that blank areas on this map aren't necessarily unpopulated, but rather that they don't have a significant prescence of civilization. Towns and such may still exist.

Oh gods, I'm honestly surprised Amen's advice actually worked on Rys. Sorry if it was a bit early for him to pull the gun out on that one!

Also, those dangerous shoulder touches.

[LadyRunic]

Lol! And she does listen! And not early at all or anything!

[Roleplayer001]

Now here's the plot: Amen is actually horribly, flamboyantly gay. His entire crew is staffed by women in disguise due to his strangely sensitive nature, and he's trying to recruit a man to fall in love with.

Sound fair?

[LadyRunic]

Wait, what? Serious? Huh? I'm confused!

Dude, I need caffine!

[Roleplayer001]

No I'm not serious, though that'd be a great story. "Totally disinterested Harem-Leading Pirate Searches for cute boy butt to love on."

I could put the other crew members into the character section though if that'd make remembering them easier for the two of us.

[LadyRunic]

Probably not a bad idea there!

And you had me worried for a minute!

[Roleplayer001]

I mean, just cuz its a 1x1 doesn't mean our characters have to be romantic! How smutty do you think I am? :D

[LadyRunic]

True enough! I mean I'll probably have Rysse seduce the current Pharaoh for fun!

[Roleplayer001]

Ambitious women always seducing their way to the top ... wonder how she intends on getting into his court though. Sneaky deaky like, I assume?

[LadyRunic]

Perhaps! I was halfways joking, but now I have a little bit of an idea.

[Roleplayer001]

Is she asking the ship in general or just Ahram? Just asking for clarification.

[LadyRunic]

More towards Ahirom.

[Roleplayer001]

Are sirens of the seas prostitutes? I haven't heard that phrase before.

Or does she mean like mythical sirens?

[LadyRunic]

Mythical sirens. Not that she's seen or believes in them.

[Roleplayer001]

Alright, I was wondering if I had missed something.

Poor guy is going to end up blushing. She's having too much fun with this

[Roleplayer001]

Sorry for delay, will get something up soon. Been busy with a data project and HW.

[LadyRunic]

Sorry for the delay!

[Roleplayer001]

Will do posts tonight

[Roleplayer001]

If Rys isn't going to do anything I'll skip to the next event.
