[quote=@TalijaKey] The island looks cool jangel! XD I like the idea~ ***Maybe we could start with our characters waiting at the dock, hoping at least a couple of people will respond to the flyers they put up for a crew? Sure~ on the dock setting sail for the greatest adventure yet XP~ Good you arent on a cellphone alone anymore XD I dont think time is so much as a problem as long as we start it Friday or Saturday. Those are usually good starting days. *nod nod* ***Also, should we only play the characters we make, or should each of us be allowed to take over each others characters, if the "owner" falls behind or isn't able to post? I am all for NPC being shared between us. NPC are story tools so its only fair to be shared. If a character is important to us we can explicitly mention it that we want to be only one using it. Okay Sharing the creations of enemies is good , But here are some elements I suggest as in enemy story plot. [color=7bcdc8] The first island weather makes lots of ship came to their end before their even came to truly even see the Grand Line. The shipwrecks are like a little treasure boxes waiting for the first one to claim it. The Moody Beavers pirate crew is searching for a specific ship. A ship a week ago found its demise. They know the ship was a trading ship, it was officially transporting goods from the sea folk to sell and trade with the locals, and quite a bit of gold and money all the same from the things the traders sold on the islands they pass by. Unofficially on the ship was one man doing shaggy businesses. A powerful devil fruit. Unlucky as it was the storm took the traders ship and all its gold and goods with it. How the Moody Beavers crew knows all of this? They were told, and all but paid a heavy sum to find and retrieve the fruit that wasnt officially on the ship. Anything else they find in the wreck is theirs to take, as long as the fruits gets safely deliver to the contact man, just another motivation from their ''employer''. ''Employer'' was the nick name everyone of the crew called the man they did several dirty jobs for. The ''Employer'' Is a navy officer who is stationed on the 3rd island of the grand line. He is a corrupt man and has a love for manipulations and gossips. Which he uses extensive, just as much as using marine funds to pay for his dirty work to be done by small pirate crews. *profile comes after* The Moody Beavers crew arrives on the island on a bad windy day. Asking some locals for direction or to get a guide. They are rejected because of religion. Maybe its a belief that they shouldnt go on that day in the sea as the ocean god is upset. The pirates blow up and started to assault the locals to get them to corporate. Because a bit of fear surely will change their believes. The locals start to fight back, somewhat, but around this time our crew arrive.

Carriers a big cleaver. [i][b]Personality:[/b][/i] Moody, to a point a wrong word from someone even himself can all but switch around his mood. His crew learnt how to deal with the man. Say teeth in any contents and he is in a blind rage, on polar opposite mention apples and he will all but cheer up and want some apples. //This can be easily used against him in fights He isnt the fastest but he is more on the strong side. ------------------------------- [b][i] Role in the story:[/i][/b] The marine officer stationed on the 3rd island navy base. Is the ''Employer''. Pays pirates to do his binding in the shady department and dealing with his dirty work. [b][i]Name: [/i][/b] Iziya O'curropt [i][b] Age:[/b][/i] 29 [i][b]Gender: [/b][/i]Male, looks girly. [b][i]Appearance:[/i][/b] [hider=looks] [img]http://files.enjin.com.s3.amazonaws.com/387201/modules/forum/attachments/eclipse+halfa_1380802188.jpg[/img] [/hider] Just in the marine uniform. Uses guns if he has to fight. [i][b]Personality:[/b][/i] He is where is he now because he tricked and destroyed the ones opposing him. Well its was more of unfortunate pirate accidents that got rid of nasty people in his way. Avoids direct confrontations and is quick to flee out of situation who put him in danger. Enjoys messing with people heads and making them believe things that go into his hands. Has a great control over his emotion and is not scared to use any means to get what he wants. Including the few occasionally cross dressing he did to seduce and tricks higher ranking officers into sharing their secrets, which became their ruins later on, before they got wasted on alcohol and sleeping drugs. He likes to present himself as a smiling innocent and live enjoying man. [/quote] AWESOME! This is all coming together really well. :) The only thing is maybe a few more characters are needed. I mean there's at least nine players, and we've got three potential enemies so far. So I'll start brain storming while at work and hopefully I'll have a few more npcs to put up when I get back. Question, and I'm sorry if this is too early. Are all the places we visit going to be unrelated, or is there going to be some kind of patter? I mean, is there someone in the background manipulating things, or is everything truly random? I can kind of see the Employer as someone like Blackbeard, kind of a low(ish) level person now, but we'll see more of his strength as things progress, possibly due to the devil fruit he's going for. Also, was there a devil fruit effect you had in mind for this, or is that still being planned out? I'd be happy to help if you'd like. Also, I know its a bit early, but I've got some time to do the intro post, and probably won't later as I've got school in the morning and then a full shift, so I'm going to go ahead and write up the intro post. :)
