CI RP: Character Introduction

[Arrrr]

This thread is designed to be used as background knowledge for the Roleplay being played out in the Sticky thread. New users to the forum, it is suggested that you read this thread first to get an understanding of what's going on. Old users, this thread should (hopefully) replace the RP??? thread, as that has served it's purpose now that everyone has decided to play out a roleplay on Cutlass Isle, and it is well underway in only a few short days.

I suggest players should make a post like the one below, although if you haven't 'met' the character and discovered the information, you should act as if you don't know it. Unless the character has a reputation!

(Feel free to edit this post to make it what you want, PF or Falc)

[Arrrr]

Arrr's Character:

Name: Leon 'Wolf' Wolfen
Age: Early 20's
Nationality: Spanish
Description: A tall, lanky man, Leon stands at approximately 6'2" with greasy, shoulder-length black hair and a black bandana. Those who know him well, which are few, describe him as 'graceful on the dance floor or on the combat arena'. However, Leon was known for his frequent black moods while learning the merchant's trade from his father, and it was while under one of those black moods, induced by learning the woman he was to marry was not the one he loved, that he severly beat a young servant, almost to death, after which he ran from home. Leon likes his drink a little too much, and although he will never drink if he thinks a battle or important business deal is upcoming, he can be caught off-gaurd.
Skills + Exploits: Swordfighter - left longsword at home and misses it dearly. Very little actual sailing experience, however knows theory and is confident on rigging.
Merhcant's son: Good at talking his way out of situations, also can be quite charming/persuasive. Appears to never stand up for himself, but anyone who argues with him and thinks they have won finds out days later that he's practically talked their clothes of their back.

Discription; manipulative, and evil is all that needs to be said about this person. He will do anything to achive his goals. A extremely wealthy mearchant, who's wife had long since run off, is childless, but has a younger sister, of about 20 (what an age diference) who he cares for like a Daugther, and is very jelous of any men who flirt with her.

Chuko's planning to start up an collective of Pirates and Privateers, but thats a bit later... for now, I shall unveil the name of my Pirate Group, The Green Dragons!

Members=1 (for the time being)
Ships = Sloop (Syzer, under construction)
Cannons = 0


Of couse you have proberly seen that I have edited this, originally, I wanted to call the collective the Green Dragons, but instead I wanted such a good name reserved for my own crew.

More on the collective a bit later... we'll see how this conversation turns out

*Off Topic, slightly*
Ah, can I just ask if you know what the actual green dragon gang is? It could only be in Australia, or SA, but I'm not sure.

Not sure about the real name for it... I take it's some kind of criminal organization... but thats just a guess... but you can enlighten me....

I picked green because that was the colour of the bandanna I purchaced, and Dragons because I like dragons... no real thought went into it.

But if its offensive, I will change it (I'm from Australia too, and I have not heard of this Green Dragon group)

[Falconer]

Green Dragon's are pussies compared to the Illuminati.

[Chuko]

Oh? are they one of those organizations trying to take over the world? Then I'll keep the name

Another edit; after Arr's below post

I'm still going to keep the name, lots of dragons are green, not just the ones your talking about... I think thats just a SA think personally... or perhaps I should rename my group kokuryuukei... see if you know who they are

The Illuminati already own the world if what's said about them is true. They go back centuries I think and they're so powerful that their 'logo' can be found on the dollar bill. Now THAT'S power.

Name change; from my above kokuryuukei, I have decided to rename my organization; Ryokuryuukai... It means basicly the same thing, Green Dragon Society, but in Japanese...

Sounds better, and much harder to spell too...

To make things more interesting, I have decided to do a bio for two characters that feature in my crew

Sai
First Mate of the Syzer
Skills; Sword, navagation
Weaknesses; Negotiation
Born in the Far East, Sai was kidnaped from his coastal home at a young age by Ming Pirates, and raised to be a tough sailor. Returning home, he took part in the violence that was engulfing the lands, but after peace returned, He rejoined the Pirate life, albeit, this time, skilled with the Japanese Katana. He was captured by the Spanish off Manilla, and kept in the Brig till the ship reached its desternation, Panama. Whilst awaiting trial, he, and a fellow prisoner escaped, and fled to the safety of Cutlass Isle. His main goal is to someday return to his native land.

Jones
Quatermaster of the Syzer
Skills; Negotiation, Theft, Planning
Weaknesses; Swordsmanship
Jones grew up in Bristol, England where he soon learned the art of picking pockets. His Genius for planning was well known, if he was born to better peerage, he would have become a skilled member of the Navy or Parliment. However, Jones' thieving ways got the better of him. Arrested, he was sent to Barbados to work off his debt to society. Fleeing on the first ship he found, a Spanish Barque, he found himself in Marbacco, where the skills he had learnt came in handy. He soon amased a large fortune, and put together a group for the most daring theft of them all, taking the Silver Train while it crossed from Panama to Porto Bello, right under the nose of the Spanish. Unfortunatly, word of this plan leaked to the Spanish, who foiled the raid, sending him to Panama Prison, where, with the help of a strange Eastern Man, he escaped and made his way to Cutlass Isle
