"Looking for adventure? Well there, mate, fortune has smiled upon ya! Meet the crew of the Leviathan, a group of young-bloods thirsting for a thrill just like yerself! We are the Robin Hoods of the skies, bringing misfortune upon the wealthy and joy to the less then privileged. Where ya come from - whether born a blue-blood or in the gutters of the slums, we care not. We're here to help ya forget where yer from, good or bad, and give ya the kind of life you never knew ya always wanted! Draw yer weapons, kiddie; yer one of us now."


Looking for a small group of (flexible) individuals interested in a steampunk pirate RP! I am asking people be okay with a plot driven almost entirely by the players, instead of just a single GM. I would like between 4-6 players who can work well with others to decided what kind of adventures the crew partakes in. Of course, the plot will be nudged in a general direction by yours truly to assure we don't get too far off course, but I would like everyone to contribute instead of relying solely on the GM to progress. That being said, onto some more stuffs:


+ My initial thoughts was that the crew should be a group of youths (aged 12-20ish) who believe that their actions of piracy upon the government and the military will help to aid the lower-class. Steal from the rich, give to the poor, you know?

+ I want someone, besides myself, to play the leader/captain of the crew. You will have to be fairly dedicated to the RP and would play a big part. So, you basically become co-GM, I suppose.

+ I really want character development to be a big deal. So, although I will not ask for a particular post size, it must be well written. This means include details, emotions, thoughts... Get us attached to your character. Are they a cute kid we'll wanna cuddle, or a jack-ass we wanna punch in the face? Let their personality show in your posts.

+ The plot will ideally be action-y, so be comfortable with blood, guts, explosions and all that cool stuff. (Keeping Guild rules in mind, of course.)

+ Romance of course is awesome, too, but keep it clean and reasonable. (As in, no sexy time between 13 year olds. Or massive age gaps [more then 5 years])

+ Dialogue doesn't have to be pirate-y, in case that concerns you. I personally suck at it, so...

That's all I've got at the moment. Please ask feel free to ask questions and share your opinions/ideas!

I think this could be really cool! Aside from the stamp unknown element, what else do we need to know about the setting? Also, does this mean our characters will be reliant on weapons?

Awesome. Steampunk is my favorite because it's so abstract.

Because of the fact that ships can fly, as far as territory is concerned it's pretty much endless. If we get bored playing around in one setting, we fly our happy butts to a new one. RPG describes my idea of steampunk pretty well; futuristic technology existing in the past. So, although the cities, vehicles and such are advanced, things like the way the government is run is still dated. I didn't have a specific date I was aiming for, figuring it would be more flexible that way. So, where executions and stuff are still considered acceptable in the law system, as well as just the general mistreatment of the lower class. So, think child labor, slave trade.... all that good stuff.

As far as to your question on weapons; do you mean like the exclusion of magic and such? If so, I wasn't planning on including stuff like that, so I guess you would say they'd be reliant on weapons. (Swords, early style guns, cannons..... stuff like that.)

CS must include, but is not limited to;

(If using an image for appearance, place it above form)
Name:
Gender:
Age:
Sexuality: (highly recommended, not mandatory)
Appearance: (instead of image, or in addition to)
Personality: (paragraph, not just a list of adjectives)
Weapon of Choice:
Other:


Feel free to add anything you feel is important. I am leaving out the history section for the moment. What I plan to do is have everyone make a sort of list of small tid-bits of information about your character's personality as it is revealed IC. This leaves room to change and develop their background as you go along.

Format your CS however you wish. I just ask that you keep in neat and pleasing to the eyes.

Oh ok. Yeah, so I was think that guns should stay black-powder-style, just because I feel like that fits steampunk well. So no ray guns or stuff like that, but everything else is pretty much fine.
