Test Drive for September 2013 Apps

[highseasmods]

Welcome to our first Test Drive for high_seas! Here is where players can test out their characters' voices, 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!

siodfk I just hope I'm doing him justice

<sub>[ The thing is, if Jack's approached by anything that isn't human, he tends to be somewhat on edge. It most likely stems from that one time he was eaten by the kracken. No hard feelings, mate, he's just not into it.

Which is very obvious, given the way he scoops up the last remaining bottles of his rum supply and hugs them tightly towards his chest. ]</sub>

But why's it free?

I have no complaints so far. /stalking all the Jack replies

Because you're out here, delirious, and almost out of alcohol. It would be a shame for a pirate to not have rum to drink, wouldn't it?

[He'll let the wolf form fizzle away back into his human one. Is this a bit better?]

Besides, you clearly could use a better... lift than this.

weeps you're adorable thank you

<sub>[ Well, he did make a good point about the alcohol beginning to run out. And it would probably be best if he did get some sort of mea- ... did he just... melt into a human being? Jack may have had his fair share of unknown substances, and hell, he may have seen some downright insane things in his time, but he's never seen a wolf turn into a man.

Slowly, he looks down at his bottle of rum and wrinkles his nose. ]</sub>

Let's say I do go with you, eh? What then? You feed me, give me more rum. What do I need to do in return for your kind services?

A-aww, thank you~

[Okay, maybe that wasn't the best idea to do. He's still new at being a pirate captain thing, okay.

As it is, he waves his hand a little.]

Just help out on the ship until we get to port, then you're free to go.

_{[ WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING he's really not happy about any of this. ]}

... but why?

_{[ WHY ]}

You get a free meal and alcohol, which we have plenty of, and we get a short bit of labor in return, which we can always use.

Isn't that a good deal?
