[knighthawk]

Name: Alto Rosadain
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Height: 4'1" 120 lbs.
Job: Cook
Title: Peg-legger

Appearance:


Personality:
He finds himself still lost years later, pirates killed his family and home but he has learned that one hero is another's villain. His heroic father of the Rosa navy was cursed by others, it was then that he took up a new last name of his hometown and land. Turning his back on his ancestry is a turmoil to him when he wakes up every morning and goes to work feeding heroic villains on the open seas. His morning is spent tying a rope off and taking a swim in the ocean after breakfast on calm days to keep fit since he no longer works at a forge on a daily basis.

History:
Blessed and cursed by the gods, he was born to a retired captain who fell in love with a blacksmiths daughter. Life was good for several years, he made a name for himself in certain circles but his lack of nobility and abundance of deformity kept him out of where he wanted to be, even including the navy his father served. So he devoted his time to apprenticing at his grandfathers forge and the culinary arts when the forge ran cold.
During the war two years ago, the town was raided upon when the navy was away, his father fell defending the town as did his grandfathers shop, it was only his height and burly nature that saved his life from the collapsed building. He fought well out of anger and loss but eventually succumbed to grief and exhaustion. He finally became more aware of himself a few days later sitting beside his fathers corpse with the family sword in his hands. Having nothing left he tried to start again and found his way onto a ship as the cook as no vessel has its own smithy.

Weapons of choice or other necessary equipment:
His weapon of choice is his cleaver, it was once his fathers sword which got handed down to him but got snapped in half in battle. He had the two halves of the blade remade into an axe blade mounted on the basket hilt. The cleavers ability to cut to bone in a single swing in the kitchen earned him his title of 'peglegger' when he would drop others to the deck without a leg to stand on.

Hey guys, sorry for being away today. I had to take care of personal business. I'm free to RP for around an hour right now.

@KnightHawk: Welcome to the RP! It's always nice to have new members. Hahaha, the crew won't go hungry now. Alto Rosadain sounds like an interesting character. I'm excited to see your first post.

[Rusalka]

@KnightHawk: So let me get this clear. Alto is a muscular midget? O.o Because that is the most metal thing I've ever heard \m/

[knighthawk]

Thanks, and yes he is a muscular midget.

[OddShot]

@knighthawk: Feel free to jump in at any time. This is a free RP, so we're not particular about how people start.

[OddShot]

@xXSINXx & Rusalka: The next battle should be with swords (perhaps we board a ship) so your characters have a chance to be really awesome (though they've been amazing so far). I didn't think about it at the time, but I apologize if I threw the two of you off with this battle's direction.

[Rusalka]

Nah it's cool man ^_^ If I wanted to over-exaggerate it, Carmen would've been ripping off the sea serpents fins with her bare hands.

[OddShot]

@Rusalka: Alright, inform me if anything bothers you though. RPs work best when everyone is on the same page.

@Everyone: I have plans tomorrow morning, so I'm going to turn in for the night. Hopefully everyone gets on around the same time tomorrow. Don't be scared to make a post or two if nobody is on.

[Rusalka]

Ya won't ever here me complaining much. I just go with the flow.

[Assallya]

I should probably point out that, other than the captain, NOBODY has their own room aboard ship. We're talking about a pirate vessel, not a cruise ship. Pirates normally slept on the gundeck, either hanging from hammocks or on thin matts.

[Vortex]

What bout the doctor? Doesn't he need a surgical table or something? Or do we just use the chefs table lol?

[Vortex]

Nite

[Assallya]

*grins* He laughs... but he's absolutely correct. Welcome to life aboard ship where space is at a premium.

[OddShot]

@Assallya: Oh, there is some history on the ship that I'll explain later. It wasn't a pirate ship originally. Most of the crew would have to sleep on the deck. However, there are quarters for officers.

-I'm going to be away for two or three hours, but should be able to RP after that.

[BK201]

so what if the guys sleep on a room and giels in other? if not someone may get pregnant

[Vortex]

It's a pirate ship so the women will have to look out for their own. In the real world women were not allowed on ships in the first place so they usually dressed as men. Anyhow a pregnancy would be interesting for rp
