Test Drive for November 2014 Apps

[highseasmods]

Welcome to your monthly Test Drive for high_seas! Here is where new players can test out their characters' voices, old players can try out new muses, and everyone can help each other get some threads for their applications! Feel free to use one of the prompts below, or come up with something on your own! Comment around, have fun, and remember that any CR formed here does not carry over to the game!

See you during the application round!

♦ So you're new to this world and have just woken up in the Town Square. How do you react? What do you do?

♦ You're lost at sea. Maybe you got separated from your crew. Or perhaps you're on an abandoned island. You need help!

♦ "Pirates off the starboard bow!" It's an enemy ship! Attack!!

♦ You and your crew are hanging out on your ship. Just another day at sea!

♦ "LAND, HO!" Hey look, a new island! How about you go explore it? Tell us what you find!

♦ Arrr, here be buried treasure, but not all that glitters is gold! Will ye be telling your mateys what ye found, or keeping it for yourselves?

[Ornifex comes up from below deck and sees Parker, cooing curiously at the thief for a moment before speaking up.]

P-perhaps if you asked more kindly, she would come of her own free will.

[loveshertaser]

I tried being nice.

[It's said very simply. Quite matter-of-fact. Because, well, that's just generally how Parker talks.]

I requested.

Now, I'm threatening.

That usually works.

When asking doesn't.

But he's being stubborn.

Should've named him Eliot.

[ornifex]

Oh.

[Well as long as she tried asking nicely, Ornifex supposes threats are okay.]

May I ask why you are... p-pursuing this Eliot creature?

[loveshertaser]

Captain Kidd. I decided not to name him Eliot. I should have.

[Stubborn. Mouthy.]

Maybe Nate.

He's my pet. He's supposed to sit on my shoulder.

[ornifex]

[Oh. She had assumed that they were going to eat the colorful creature.

To be honest, Ornifex is a little disappointed.

V-very well. I will help you catch this beast.

[Yes, she knows that Parker didn't actually ask for help, but it's not like she's got much else to do.]
