| | Wizards at Sea It's the 1700s, and pirates are foraging and plundering more heavily than ever. Witch-hunting is also steadily becoming a huge threat to wizards and witches all over the world, so what are the hunted ones to do but to join forces with their equally-hunted criminal brothers? This role play is about when wizards and witches begin joining the pirate crews of the day in order to evade capture. The pirates, who are oblivious to the magicality of their shipmates, are at constant war with each other, each wanting what the other doesn't have. There are four major ships in the same general area that all face troubles which, they believe, can only be solved by stealing from or taking control of another's ship. The following is the criteria for an application to join:
Name:
Age:
Appearance:
Race: (Witch, Wizard, or Muggle)
Position Aboard:
Background:
Personality:
Please do NOT post the ship you want to be on unless you are applying for a captain position; all others will be assigned to ships. Also, if you do not plan on staying active, please don't ask to be a captain - these must be our most active RPers! The Ships Firebird - Largest Weaponry on the Sea
Captain - Charles Ransom - forensicscientist101
*Cassandra Smith Ransom*
Quartermaster - Elizabeth Parcel - TKS<3
Boatswain - Victoria Donn - Herminny The Black Knight - Millions in Oil Below Deck
Captain - Sonja McCreed - Riverlynn Quartermaster - Cassandra Smith - UnicornDragonPatronus
Boatswain - Samantha Carson - Slytherin Fox
Gunner - Tristram Shandy - best deatheater Island Ghost - Owns All Major Food-Bearing Islands

Gunner - Paryce Lightbridge - forensicscientist101
Powder Monkey - Kyle Gion - Herminny The Duchess - Expert Treasure Hunters Captain - Katherine H. Jones - 10DesmondsDaughter14 Quartermaster CAPTAIN - Jonathan Kincaid - Slytherin Fox
Botswain - Adelpha Carvel - hermione1994 NOTE: Once assigned to a ship, please post in the indicated color to avoid confusion (Firebird - Dark Red; The Black Knight - Dark Slate Blue; Island Ghost - Dark Green; The Dutchess - Olive). Also, please have no more than two characters at once. On a final note, have fun and feel free to trick, deceive, kidnap, plunder, or use any other type of pirate-y means necessary to gain your ship control of the seas - drama will make the RP all the more fun!

| ♫ ♥ Where are my garters?! / hyphens-are-cool / THE NORTH GATE ♥ ♫ OMG I didn't even know it was up until right now!!! Yes you both can join!!! You can have up to two charries and it doesn't matter - Witch, Wizard, or Muggle. I'm so excited! Thank you for the praise!
EDIT: For Bio Name: Katherine Hazel Jones - Kate or Captain Jones
Age: 24
Appearance:
Race: Muggle
Position Aboard: Captain of the Duchess
Background: Kate's mother died of measles when Kate was only 4 years old. Her father was a Commodore in the British Navy and got his daughter interested in ships at a very young age. It wasn't long until she was having one of her own built. On its maiden voyage, however, it was commandeered by pirates. Luckily, they let Kate live, and she became a member of the crew. While docked in a harbor in the Caribbean a few months later, though, it was destroyed by a heavily armed merchant vessel. Her crew mates fled, but she stayed. She had a good deal of money with her and had a second ship built, The Duchess. She rounded a crew of her own up, and has been sailing the seas since.
Personality: Kate is a little hard to get along with when you first meet her. She likes things done a certain way and won't settle for slackers. She has a very good heart, though, and is determined to one day return home and see her father, who has assumed her dead for six years now.

| ♫ ♥ Where are my garters?! / hyphens-are-cool / THE NORTH GATE ♥ ♫ Of course! If you don't mind, though, it'd be great if your captain was a guy since our two our current captains are girls. If you're not okay with this, that's okay too!!

A few more bio posts and a couple more who're interested and we may be able to get this going by tonight! In about an hour and a half, I won't be on for probably 8 hours or so, though, so I'll deal with any new posts at that time --- don't worry I'm not going to be ignoring anybody!!

| ♫ ♥ Where are my garters?! / hyphens-are-cool / THE NORTH GATE ♥ ♫ Yes to both! Thank you for the bio. But Swirlhead, I'm pretty much putting people where I need them, so it may not be the Firebird if that's okay?

| ♫ ♥ Where are my garters?! / hyphens-are-cool / THE NORTH GATE ♥ ♫ No problem, lol, thanks. As I said before, I may just put your witch character where she's needed, but I will try my best to make you guys happy. unfortunately, I can only give you one of those jobs, as their both so demanding, unless, of course, we don't have enough people. Is that okay?
Please get your bios up soon, guys, I want to start in the next couple of hours --- and tell your friends.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Adelpha Charles Fourth Year | Peek-a-Boo Reporter
Name: Adelpha Carvel
Age: 22
Appearance:
Race: Witch (Half-Blood)
Background: Adelpha struggles with being a pirate. She would rather be back at home, casually going about her daily life, and not be aboard a ship. As far as Adelpha's concerned, only one good thing has come out of being a pirate and that is she's beat her sea-sickness and fear of water.
Personality: Adelpha isn't the most optimistic person in the world and, in a crisis, tends to panic and completely not think.

Sorry its taken so long! I kinda got carried away! Here's my bio! Name: Sonja McCreed Age: 25 Race: Muggle Born Witch Position aboard: Captain Appearance: Personality: Captain McCreed is a strong, independent woman. Due to past experiences she has a hard time trusting people. Those that do earn her trust find that she is a very dependable and fiercely loyal woman. Those who have the privilege to sail aboard her ship will find quickly that while she is fair and she expects all jobs to be done according to her specifications. At times she may seem brazen even harsh but she believes in telling it like it is, even if it sometimes gets her in trouble. Background: Sonja was born into a low class working family in a small town called Harborside. Her father worked as the Dock Master’s assistant while her mother was a seamstress. Being the only child Sonja went to work with him and he taught her at an early age that hard work was the only way to get anything in this world.
When Sonja was 11 two strange vessels came in the night. One, The Dark Dragon, attack and destroyed the little town of Harborside, and then the pirates aboard came to shore and killed all those that they could find including Sonja’s parents. While hiding in a cellar, Sonja was discovered by a man named Captain Gerard. He took her to his ship, The Tigress, claiming that he was following the Dragon to try and stop her but was too late. Sonja was instantly infatuated with him and believed every word he said.
Captain Gerard gave her a home and a job aboard his ship and taught her all the things he knew. As the years past she built relationships with everyone aboard and learned everything she could about ships, fighting, and being a pirate. Sonja worked and fought alongside Gerard until she turned 20. Upon her 20th birthday Gerard asked her to marry him. Sonja was overjoyed and happily accepted. The night before their wedding, another ship came and their Captain requested an audience with Captain Gerard. Sonja was curious to who the man was and why he wanted to speak with her fiancé. That’s when Sonja learned the truth. Gerard had been in league with the man these past many years, and they were both responsible for the massacre at Harborside.
Feeling utterly betrayed Sonja went on the war path. Only a few managed to escape with their lives, both Captains were not among the living. She set fire and sank both vessels and then spent 10 days at sea. Sonja exhibited some strange abilites that night, abilities that she had had since turning 11 but had decided to hide. It was because of these “magical” abilities that she believes she was able to survive. Finally, she washed up on shore near Port Royal, where she decided that she needed a new ship. For three years she worked, slowly gathering the tools and materials that she needed. Then she spent another year building what would become one of the most feared vessels ever to sail the seven seas.
Now she sails with a crew of her own and runs things as she sees fit. While her skills and morals make her a fit Captain, her past makes her deadly adversary. All betrayers beware.
