Test Drive for October 2013 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!

Of course! Of course.

[Jack could not possibly bring old grudges here. Surely any shipmate, regardless of past superstition, was a good shipmate, in this unnatural place?]

Though I'm afraid I will not be easily reached. I have been forbidden to return to shore from these docks - it is either onto a ship, or into the sea. Thus I find myself in search of a berth. [A very tight smile. He was not pleased.]

Have you found a place?

I was turned out this morning myself. I'd... thought to make myself useful at the inn.

[It had seemed a good, safe place for him. A Jonah was only dangerous at sea. At the inn, he would have been able to help people. Cook and clean.

But...]

So I suppose I... have to find a ship.

[Fifteen years experience, thirteen as midshipman. He could certainly be of use, he felt. But... then there was the curse to contend with.]
