Pirates of the Caribbean




"I have had more than enough experience dealing with pirates!"



tumblr_nn0wb6XCFa1usvbrzo2_500.gif





Open sea. A worn but glorious ship sails alone. It's damp in the cabins and the sails are patched. 'Wherever we want to go, we’ll go. That’s what a ship is, you know. It’s not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that’s what a ship needs but what a ship is… what the Black Pearl really is… is freedom.' God knows what lurks below the hull or what lies beyond the distant fog. A proud and dangerous warning flies with the Jolly Roger;

"Pirates"




Welcome to the Pirates of the Caribbean roleplay. There will be four sets that you can join; Pirates, Redcoats, Sea Monsters and Other ( for characters such as Shansa and Tia Dalma) Each pretty self-explanatory, pirates are sailors who attack or rob other at sea, Redcoats are the British soldiers, Other are the non-specified characters and Sea creatures can vary from Sirens to Kracken, a list of available sea creatures will be further down. Canon and OC's are welcome, there will also be a list of available canon characters. The roleplay and plot will not stick to the movie plots, considering there will be OC's and such. Many aspects of these characters and plots could be viewed as an alternate universe. Hopefully, it will not render the whole Pirates of the Caribbean theme but add some fun elements and surprises! This may contain spoilers for the latest movie.

Rules
Please read the rules, there aren't too many.




1. Please no godmodding, it's fine for your character to be strong and whatnot but make sure they have their weaknesses.



2. Please have a basic understanding of the movies/franchise. You don't need to be an expert, just understand the easy stuff.



3. Obey all lioden rules, they still apply here.



4. Try not to swear, there is plenty of pirate slang to use instead. Though it honestly doesn't bother me too badly.



5. Keep explicit scenes in PMs or fade to blacks, thank you. If you've read this far, put 'davy jones' locker' in the 'other' section in your application.



6. Respect all the other players. Hate the character not the player.



7. If you want to kill a character off, make sure it's okay with the player first.



8. Please try to be literate and minimum responses in a roleplay are a paragraph.



9. There is no discrimination against any race, gender or sexualities here.

Sorry to say I probably won't reply today, due to hayfever I really can't see well at all and typing even this is effort I don't really have at the moment.

Thanks for understanding guys, in addition to the kind words, since I've slept I feel a little better and so if I can manage it I'll probably type up some responses. Eye drops are both hell and heaven at the same time xD e,e

I hope you feel better soon! My mum and sister suffer from hayfever badly, so I know how it feels in a way. I only ever sneeze when the pollen is extremely, unusually high, so I don't really suffer from it myself.

On another note I have no idea what to put in my response to the roleplay XD

Ah Bamon it's shit, honestly I'm fucked over by trees, grass and garden weeds so badly in the summer that when the sunshine emerges I'm an utter recluse. Because I don't just look like Bear Grylls when he was stung by bees (Google it if you guys haven't seen the poor dude's face already), oh no. I have sudden nosebleeds that wake me in the middle of the night, my nose is practically a faucet, and if I open my window because its too hot its like I have asthma and my throat's closing up. (I don't, but the whole throat-close and breathing struggle is the same.)

Its gone back to me looking like some sort of alien creature, so as it happens my responses shall be tomorrow unfortunately as I have to focus on exam revision (I'd rather just sleep). In the ways of response perhaps Georgie could ask about his dependency/trust in and on the compass, as well as breaching the subject of her Mother? I'm terrible help when it comes to assisting in ideas xD

Alrighty guys, I'll have up a poll of some sorts tomorrow hopefully so we can decide where we want to go with the roleplay. I'd do it tonight but I'm absolutely buggered and I think I'll have to go to bed lol. Goodnight all!

In the ways of adventure I was looking into some lore, misadventures and treasures from the non-canon stories of what I assume to be books? Follows the tales of a much younger Jack Sparrow. Nonetheless, perhaps we could all vote on an item that seems quest and plotline worthy? http://pirates.wikia.com/wiki/Jack_Sparrow#Early_life (The stories are listed)]

Postin' here because 'tis the correct thread to do so.

I have finally finished Anamarie's application. Woohoo! Now I am working on my reply for Georgiana.

An idea just came to me. In the last movie I liked the introduction of Poseidon, even if it was through his trident. I was wondering if perhaps we introduce Poseidon fully into our roleplay? Maybe he exists, Atlantis is known as his home according to lore in the POTC world, but is a legend and myth as far as anyone is concerned. I know it may be a bit selfish, but perhaps since Anamarie was raised in an orphange (I filled in her background of her early years since she has none), she could maybe be a descendant of his and doesn't know it? She doesn't know anything of her parents, has never enquired about them, and so it could fit. Anyway, perhaps Poseidon felt his trident being destroyed, having lost it or put it where it was on purpose (perhaps to find someone worthy of his tutelege or to find the descendant of his that was lost since its supposed to draw in those of his blood but failed to in the last movie) and is now coming for revenge as well as (if we go with the descendent plot) to actively try to find his heir rather then rely on the trident that is now destroyed...

Sure, there's no harm in that, I'll post a response at some point later I'm sorry to say, I gotta run for a lil' bit. On the off chance I don't type one today, attribute that to the blackout patches. The street is suffering the occasional blackout at the moment and we're not too sure of the cause, but a vast majority (myself included) of my neighbours have already rang to let them be aware.
