Test Drive for January 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!

It's not one I would recommend indulging in often, either. But I'm sure there's no need to worry, you look far from a fool so I'm sure you will take measures to avoid it.

[A pause as she looks at him and his attention to the water.]

If it serves of anything you came from the port side, so I guess you were heading starboard.

[snorts] Fool enough to try and scout so close to sunset.

[He momentarily looks back at her with a completely blank expression.] ...Right. It's been a while since I've heard those terms used. Either way, I'd only go back the way I came. There's barely anything out here.

[letthestormrageon]

Fortunately it's something easy to avoid in the future, and there was no way you would be able to know that there was nothing around to be found. Except this ship, of course.

[She nods calmly.]

Indeed, if the information of our map is correct we are still a couple of weeks away from any form of land. It's amazing how far apart the islands of this world are at times.

Amazing isn't the first word I'd pick. Annoying, maybe. Terribly inconvenient. [shakes his head] Now, what is amazing is how any of you can stand to be out to sea for so long. It's unbearable.
