~ Girls Can't Be Pirates ~
Link to original sign-ups
Link to original roleplay
Once there was a girl named Helen, who lived on the island of Nassau. But Helen was a slave, and she was doomed to live and die as little more that an object, owned by a man who didn't see her as even human.
Once there was a girl named Cecily. She was the daughter of a freed slave and her white master. No one would employ a 'filthy' mixed-race woman, and so Cecily turned to thievery to survive, stealing larger and larger items as she got bolder.
Once there was a woman named Renee, and she was a pirate. She had been taken when she was young, when her island town was raided and destroyed, and she was taken captive. She earned the respect and loyalty of her fellow pirates, eventually captaining the Drowned Sun.
Renee found Helen and Cecily and rescued them, bringing them into a new life. One of danger and terror, but also one of freedom and joy. Together, they stole a ship called the Lady Catherine, rumored to be the fastest vessel to sail the seven seas. Renamed the Silent Sea, the ship became infamous in time.
The crew of the Silence continued her founder's traditions, accepting women only, thieves and slaves and murderers and those that were living such miserable lives piracy was a better option. They were a family, bound by blood and loyalty and honor.
The Silence was eventually nicknamed the Night's Revenge by the navy and civilians, it after how it came out of the night and attacked ruthlessly, often targeting those who had wronged members of the crew. The crew themselves named called it by its true name, the Silent Sea. ((thank you Esp, I love it))
Because, it seemed, girls could be pirates.
~ Espenfall's Lore ~
The true name was always the Silent Sea, but it is like a myth. Think the black pearl in Pirate of the Caribbean.
It was like a myth, something you tell your children at night so they behave... but oh it was real.. it was very real.
Though, I believe the black pearl was the ships real name in that.
Different to that though, the ship earned its "name" from everyone else after it attacked several vessels in the night, and it was only ships that harbored known wife beaters, slave owners, things like that. Though the Nights Revenge isn't a true name. It is considered a thing of myth, an unholy thing that leaves a bad taste in the mouths of all that knew not its true purpose...
The true name was Silent Sea.
Because those who gave it it's true name saw it not as this horrible thing that shouldn't be spoken of.. It was an escape. A thing that brought hope, that brought life, that brought them to the sea.. the silent vast sea that they loved.
The ship isn't bad.. it was called Silent Sea as a thing of beauty, not a thing of destruction as it was painted as by the naive.. the true name is meant to show it's beauty, it's worth.
The two names have different meanings entirely, but two sides. Like people at war believing two different things and seeing the other so differently.

~ Characters ~
Of course, on an actual ship there are far more roles - Master Of Sails, Ropemaker, etc., but I'm not including everything. IF YOU RESERVE A SPOT AND DON'T COMPLETE THE FORM WITHIN THREE DAYS OF RESERVING IT, I WILL MAKE THE SPOT AVAILABLE AGAIN.
Pirates
CLOSED UNTIL WE GET MORE MALE CHARACTERS!
((In order of rank))
Captain
Maxine Nevermore Darling | Espenfalls
First Mate ((Quartermaster))
Honor Barrett | MistressNyx
Sailing Master
Jeaine Reed | Soupsquid
Map-Master
Rowan Angeles | Canawlia
Gunners ((3))
- Erika Smith | Moonlitwolf0
- Diance Diaba | Dragongem23
- Esmeralda Von Blanke | Luminousheart
Nicknames/Titles
- Hon
- Joyce ((This is her actual name. When she was taken onto the Night, she refused to tell them her actual name, and they nicknamed her 'Honor', the complete opposite of how she acted at the time))
- Sometimes newer pirates and the younger ones who are scared of her simply call her Quartermaster, though she does not mean to be scary
Age
19
Gender
Female
Rank
Quartermaster
Preferred Weapon
She's a decent shot with a flintlock pistol, but she prefers to use two short, curved sabers, one in each hand - her unique fighting style. Like all the other pirates, she's excellent as aiming and judging distance with a cannon, so that's nothing special. Honor is can wield a cat 'o nine-tails barbed whip ferociously, because as Quartermaster, she's in charge of punishment aboard the Night's Revenge and her crew.
Appearance
Personality
Honor is very grown-up for her age, both mentally and physically. It is practically unheard of for a girl (or boy) as young as 19 to become the second-in-command aboard a ship, but then again it is also practically unheard of for a group of girls to pirate a ship and still be around and successful twenty years later. While Honor has a sarcastic, quirky, and rather coarse sense of humor, she knows when she needs to be serious and focused. She is very dedicated, often to the point of not knowing when to give up. When there is a task that needs to be done, from taking over the helm for a bit to emptying the latrines, she will gladly step forward and do it without having to be asked. As Quartermaster, she is in charge of punishment. She wields a nine-tailed whip ferociously, but that does not mean she likes to do it. Mostly, she will assign you to nasty tasks or limit your rations as penalty instead, but sometimes she has to make an example of someone. She can be scary, but she does not try to be. However, she is quite reckless and impulsive, and is known to do things that may seem exactly insane, as in, she's mad, but brilliant at it.

Why'd You Become A Pirate?
Honor was the daughter of a relatively rich merchant, and was captured and held for ransom when she was ten. Her father, being an arrogant pr*ck, didn't bother wasting his coin on her. Eventually, the pirates who captured her were attacked by the Night's Revenge, and she was taken from them and raised on the Night.
Other
Honor has a monkey named Falcon that she found in the hold of a trading galley the Night's Revenge captured, and adopted him.

Name:
Maxine Darling Nevermore
Aliases:
Sharp Shot, Sudden Death, Candy ( This one is what one uses to annoy her a lot ), Max, Nevermore
Age:
18
Gender:
Feminine
Rank:
Captain
Preferred Weapon:
Long range- Two pistols
Short range- A Sword
Appearance:
Personality:
Maxine is a charismatic, optimistic, sweet, and caring. She likes to make friends and keep them around. She is on the inside very hurt and scared of people at times. She is smart, and is great at keeping secrets as one may be able to find out in the future, and is amazing at lying. Though she is a great friend she isn't a trusting person to most though she will greet everyone with a smile. Even though she is troubled she tries to not let it show. She has flashbacks often and is sometimes too scared to let anyone close to her.
Maxine is also very motherly towards the younger crew members but trust me when I say when she needs to become strict she will be.
Backstory:
A story of misery and sadness. She doesn't tell anyone but alas, here is the story for those who may get to know her. Story might be triggering
Maxine was a happy girl with parents who treated her like a princess. She was a great student of a high up family to be married off to a handsome boy whom she had known since she was young. She loved to play in the meadows with him and knew his parents well. What she hadn't known till much later was that the father of her future husband liked her a little too much. One warm Sunday when she was 15, her parents and a group of other parents and kids went to the summer lake they loved and her best friends father asked her to come check something out with him. Poor nave Maxine followed the man into one of the cabins that were there... and he took advantage of poor Maxine. The rest of the day went on as normal as did many other days and times this happened to her. Soon she was home with her parents. She lied telling them she felt tired and went into her room sobbing from what had happened to her. A few months later her and her parents had found she was pregnant and she was kicked from the house expecting, poor, and now disowned from all of her family. She did anything she needed to do to survive and hoped for her child to be born healthy for she did not blame them. One fateful day she found that.. she miscarried. For her that was the final straw. She no longer would fight for the good of this world as for here there was none and never would me. She did whatever crimes she needed to so she lived comfortable.
As for what happened to the man she was meant to marry, she heard he never got over her.
She had joined the crew of
Nights revenge before any of the newcomers had and was the first to be there- in fact she was the last crew member alive after a hard battle.. She was trained by the old captain whom had taken a liking to her and saw her talents and skill- she being the only pirate left alive and the only person whom remembered how the original ship was ran.. She waits for the dead of night.. on a special day.. to collect the new crew of pirates.
Likes:
Rain, open spaces, seeing people happy, being in good company, cats, the morning, someone she can lean on, friends, children. Other stuff will be found thru RP
Dislikes:
Closed spaces, being alone, nighttime, seeing children unhappy, old men/men in general, being touched anywhere near her legs without permission, getting flashbacks, the mere idea that a man can do something horrible to a woman.
Strengths:
Optimistic, Great shooter, great at lying, resourceful
, can be very flirtatious and distracting to a male if she wanted to be.
Weaknesses:
Not good at close combat, not good with directions sometimes, can be frozen in place by certain noises and words, a mention of a child in combat can make her freeze up for a second.
Relations:
She has a parrot that she loves named Old Sultan.
Lucy ( Childhood friend )
All others will be RP'ed out.
Why'd You Become A Pirate?:
Her family disowned her. She battled long and hard for a much better path but alas, she could only take what she could get. She doesn't mind the life she has now but.. she wishes the world were better.
Other:
She is Bisexual
( Is this too much btw? Also I almost lost ALL of it and freaked out )

He was happy for his brother but in time saw that the girl who was once his own friend had changed becoming jumpy around his father. As time went on this girl went missing and he alongside her brother looked for her everywhere they could.

Rank

Preferred Weapon
A double-barrel shotgun
hinged dagger (think little hooks the dig into the skin and when pulled take chunks off. Came up with the name myself xd )
Appearance
She uh.. "borrowed" maxines outfit
Personality
She has extreme abandonment issues, and when she gets attached to a person she kind of clings to them in fear of losing them. She has a bad temper to mask this as she prefers people stay away even with that, she hates the idea of losing a person so much she acts as nasty as possible so they stay away. She truly is just hurt, and wants someone to just tell her it's okay. She is a sweet girl under her hard shell of pure anger and hate. She loves the company of others, and loves it when she makes someone happy. Chances are though she won't be admitting to it anytime soon.
Backstory:
She was abandoned at birth, and she was told her parents never loved her because she was born with a defect.. One of her hands is missing a finger and another is only half formed, amoung a few other things. Because of this she is super self consious, and along with that and being told how worthless she was, the people who showed her any attention she clinged to.. and someone took advantage of it, being incredibly abusive to her and hurting her emotionally and mentally. She eventually realized it and ran away, living on the streets till she heard of a band of pirates, and she was now desprate to escape the police who were chasing her.. she decided to give it a shot.
Likes
Animals, most people, the sky, the pretty things in the ocean, the ocean itself, almost everything.
Dislikes
Tomatoes and brocoli, bad people, the navy, things that smell bad.
Strengths
She is very strong willed, and very strong for her age. She isn't easy to manipulate and unfortunately some of her innocence was stolen from her as she was given a rude awakening to how people can be, is a pickpocket.
Weaknesses
She is still innocent in some ways, what she makes up for in strength she lacks in speed, no skill in weapons, no skill in cooking.
Relations:
Maxine- Future adoptive mother
Honor- An aunt in the future
Silence- Future friend
( Hates the Navy and orphanage and practically everything *thought she doesn't hate them, she just pushes them away out of fear. )

Other
Name
Mercury Jones
Nicknames/Titles
Darkened Sky, The silent one, Dead eyes, Night killer, The lost soul, Ghost, The executioner.
Age
21
Gender
Feminine
Sexuality
Les, she is now afraid of men
Rank
Sailor
Preferred Weapon
A double sided, larger battle axe like weapon, it was wrapped at the top with a light colored leather that is now coated in blood.
A bow and arrow... her arrows are coated in a deadly toxin that is a slow killer.
Appearance
Personality
Though no one really gets to know her, she kind of doesn't have one in the first place upon first appearance.. She almost has no emotions that one can see, she is unreadable and very serious, straightforward, and stern. But if she is comfortable in her situation she is very playful, a happy person, and has the driest, most dad joke humor ever. She is easily excitable, and can go from blank to super excited within milliseconds. So, she might seem very dull at first but getting to know her reveals a complete switch. A fair warning though, she kind of is a bit too serious about some things, and doesn't like recklessness.
Backstory
She was from a good family, not poor but not rich either. She lived a very happy life and used to be just herself, not the.. emotionless mess most people think of her as first. She was a normal, hard working person till she was married off at about 17. Her husband was at first the most gentleman of a man she'd ever met. Charming, likable, and seemingly.. perfect. Too bad for her that she was getting into something horrible. The second she moved in her life became a living hell. He indeed was a good man.. when sober. When he drank he became very violent, beating her senselessly. It was a constant roller coaster. She had tried to fight him off, tried to make everything okay... tried to keep him away from drinking but it never worked. One day though it had went too far, and after a very long beating her forever scared her, dumping boiling hot water onto one side of her face.. she went blind from that side, it took months of healing, and she lost in her mind all of her beauty. Feeling she had no escape she almost killed herself.. that was, until she heard of the band of female pirates and decided to go there.. or face her death. She joined the crew and made quite a name for herself.. When she got into a certain state of mind she was a brutal killer, completely capable of killing a man but.. don't leave her be in those states, she might hack them to pieces or something. She usually does remember this and is extremely ashamed.
Likes
Nice people, Flowers, small animals, children, her family that she had to leave behind, life, the way the wind sounds in forests.
Dislikes
Alcohol of any kind, hot water ( teas, coffee, hot chocolate, soups. ), men, being alone, having to face things by herself
Strengths
She can take more then a lot of pain without feeling it, she won't reveal information from those she cares for even if threatened with death, she doesn't need to eat food every day or drink water, can survive long amounts of time without that.
Weaknesses
Isn't scared of death so is willing to do crazy things ( good and bad ), absolutely terrified of men, cannot be near the edges of the ship due to fear of water ( she can swim, though. ), doesn't know when enough is enough.
Relations
Maxine -Friend
Honor - Future partner
Why'd You Become A Pirate?
" I.. I couldn't take his beatings anymore.. "
Roleplay Example
Other
Won't tell you about her past whatsoever unless she trusts you completely. Due to beatings she has slight nerve damages and twitches sometimes, she does not have panic attacks due to this but she does have extreme night terrors.
