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!

It pleases me to hear that.

[For Magoichi, it's not so much the corpses as who the corpses belonged to. Killing Nobunaga may have been her greatest ambition between Ishiyama and his first death, but the thought of doing it a third time so soon after the second is exhausting.]

Once we get aboard, I want to see those skills, combat or otherwise, for myself, as well as a list of our supplies. It is not the Saika way to simply "muddle along".

[seadevil]

Yes, you and Xun Yu can get to work on that. She's got most of that in order already.

[It's all well and good to have people who can keep things in order like Magoichi and Xun Yu, but eventually he's going to need to find someone who can cook and someone who can treat more than a few bumps and scrapes.]

She'd appreciate a second set of eyes, I think.

[blackbirdgunsmoke]

I like the sound of this woman more by the minute.

[She does briefly wonder how Motochika managed to keep his vessel afloat back home. He never seemed to be the type to care for the more boring aspects of running a ship, and she got the same impression from his crew.]

Is there anything else I should know, before we make this arrangement official?

[seadevil]

No, I think that about covers it! My ship is the Katabami. You'll find her in the harbor flying a flag of tenimuhou. [As the four kanji idiom seemed a suitable replacement for his crest.] If you need any more funds for weaponry or ammunition, Xun Yu can provide you with some as your first payment.

[Motochika, if nothing else, is good at delegating things his doesn't want to do to people who can do them for him.]
