Test Drive for February 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!

He wasn't entirely sure King Neptune cared about that kind of thing. Granted, Thatch had never met the merman, only heard stories from Namur but perhaps the Neptune was different where this man came from.

"Maybe so, but I'll do what I want as a pirate's right. If Neptune has a problem, he can come and face me like a man." Though he says all this lightly and with warm humor, not taking the threat seriously.

He was referring to gods and the sea itself.

"If ya want to challenge a god, I won't be stoppin ya," he conceded. Thatch was an experienced sailor and they did come from different worlds.

"Maybe he deserves to be challenged now and again, aye? To keep his strength up." But he won't taunt the other man too much as he seems pretty flighty. Instead he grabs onto the rigging and hauls himself to sit on the railing.

"So tell me about yourself, mate."

It's hard to stay down to earth when stuck in a land formed from a child's imagination.

"He's plenty strong enough for me," he said. "If you could take him down a few pegs, it'd be quite a feat."

This large fellow did seem like he had a better chance than the average sailor. He was competent on the deck, so Robert couldn't dismiss his views. He may have also had experience with the supernatural.

"What do ya wanna know?" He said. "Im all my years of sailing, I've seen some strange things. Even by the standards of this place."

He was aware that some thought of him as a minor storybook character.

"Ever hear of a place called Neverland?"
