The Roleplay will be set in the timeframe of the early 1700's and it will mostly revolve around surviving as one of the shipwrecked crew members, but as these crew members will soon find out to their own despair, nature is not the only thing against them...

---------------------------------------------------

"Sails! Sails! Let the damned things out! Quickly, shipmates!" a grizzled and experienced brave man called out, his old and gravelly voice still able to ring out over the harsh rain and crashing tide that flowed over the ship's bow as it cut through the rushing torrent of salty water.

The older man looked up toward the mast, the swaying of the boat and his poor eye-sight working in turn to inhibit him from seeing one of his shipmates who was mindlessly still up there. The young man, a tenderfoot, was brave but stupid and was out to prove himself when there was nothing to prove, the grizzled captain knew. "Get down you imbecile before you end up in an eternity box!" he shouted, however it was too late.

The sails were let down and met with immense wind-force, the amount so ethereal that it awed all who saw what came next. The lower-mast, made of century-old sturdy white-oak wood, snapped in half, taking the young man with it into the sea of black.

The old man looked up as the man fell from the mast, the tenderfoot's wide-eyed and horrified expression lit-up by the loud crack of lightening that sprawled its white arm across the sky. The captain knew that his ship was going to be lost in the unforgiving sea of salt that had consumed so many lives on expeditions before, so he removed his tricorn hat and laid it on the deck - a final act of appreciation to his beauty of a ship, Wolfwind.

The bolt of lightening brought about great news, though! A shipmate came down from the deck, the rain still pelting down and the waves persisting to ride up the bow. A desperate but determined expression present on his face as he approached him captain.

"Cap'n! Land! Land ho'! We'll be hit'n the rocks soon! Wolf'nd will be lost but our lives shan't be!" he shouted to his captain over the hard rain and crashing waves whom which was now standing upright, his hat still placed on the soaked deck.

"Very well. Gather everyone and have them take what they can! We'll check the shipwreck for more items later," the captain said firmly, no doubt of the surviving present in his voice or stance, although he knew there was only a slim chance that they would not perish.

The captain's crew member had held his word true. Everyone was up on the bow within a minute, prepared to hit the rocks. Few items and such were clasped in their hands as they waited for the initial impact. They held on to the railings for stability as the waves still rocked their boat relentlessly. The captain had his left arm wrapped around what was left of the ship's mast as he looked back and observed his ragtag crew through the heavy rain that brought along with it a crack of lightening.

Their faces were glum, some scared and some ready to embrace death for they had fought the storm that was about to consume them for hours. There was no time to think of that, though; the ship hit the rocks with an immense amount of force. All who were unprepared lost some of their items or themselves for the captain saw two men go overboard and he nearly joined the, the impact throwing him off balance.

The boat had stopped, ensnared on the rocks. A bolt of lightening cracked against the night sky once again, showing him that the land was so close, yet so far. There was no time to wait, though; the waves would tear his boat apart even more and he and his men would die without even putting up a fight. One last time, as the waves rocked Wolfwind and the rain fell heavily overheard, the captain looked over his men. They were waiting on him to give the orders, possibly one last time.

"Order they shall have," he murmured to himself.

"Men! Go overboard! Swim to the shore! Fight and you shall be rewarded with life! Be a coward and you will die a thousand deaths!" he shouted to his men as he raced over the edge, plunging into the salty torrent of water.

Name: William Haggard

Age: 40 somethin'. You can ask but he always replies with that.

Physique: His frame is skinny and boney, his jaw is painfully obvious, his head looks like the skin is tightly wrapped around his skull. His brow eyes deep-set in his head, almost always shadowed over. He looks like he's about to starve to death all the time, but yet he's perfectly capable.

Occupation: (Most men were farmers, but being something other than is very much encouraged.) He was a beggar on the streets doing oddjobs of all sorts.

Weapon: (Muskets, hatchets, flintlocks, no weapon, or anything else that comes to mind as long as I can confirm it.) A small but elegant knife, looking far more sophisticated then him.

Biography: (This ship was originally sailing to one of the thirteen colonies to deliver the colonists that were on board. Write about why you may be leaving England.) one of the oddjobs he did turned out to be illegal, so he took up another job as a guise to make his escape to the Americas. And also, he thought England was smelly. Odd guy.

Are you okay with your character dying to advance the plot? Y/N: Yes...? I mean if other people join, than yes.

Other:

I think the OP should make a character just to advance/communicate the plot a bit easier.

I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You're the magician's assistant in their dream

Oh, and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

There's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf

Oh, and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
And I got a lump in my throat
