[quote=@AlysCole] Ah, I missed that little tidbit. I like the idea of her masquerading as a fifteen to sixteen-year old boy to serve in the Navy, perhaps in the foolish hopes of finding adventure and all that bull. She'd have been a Junior Seaman in the Navy before the mutiny, maybe? She'll probably try to keep up the charade, afterwards. I'll see about fleshing out the character. That is, if she's a go! [/quote] Oh she's totally a go, not a moment's hesitation. If it helps, in the Royal Navy there are two or three positions a 15-16 year old might hold. Indeed the base seaman is one of them, but there also the powder monkeys (generally even younger), the steward/cabin boy, and there are [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midshipman#Royal_Navy_.281662.E2.80.931836.29]midshipmen[/url], which are a little more interesting if you'd care to do a little forgery with that "letter of service", but would actually get you trained in the finer arts of sailing a ship. Whatever you choose, I'm sure you'll do great!
