[center][i][color=0072bc]"Have you ever looked out off the docks, gazed into the sea and marveled at what could be beyond that endless horizon? In this city, steam bellows out of towers and into the streets as a great fog that shrouds our daily lives in that grey mundane monotony as we go about our way. You can't escape the constant watch of that damnable Academy who thinks just because they run this city they control everything.... Even our very lives... Don't you want something more than this dull life? I know I do... And I know just how I'm gonna do it to! I'll form a crew from the outcasts of this place! Mad Scientists, free Clockhearts, those cast out as thugs and scum, Engineers who were defamed for their uncouth creations, all of them! And together we'll set out into the open sea, and we'll sail away from this city in the middle of the ocean... Together we'll seize our freedom, and we'll stir up some trouble for the Academy while we do it! That's my dream... One big family freak show, just like me... People who reject this way of living with me! Together we'll reach beyond that horizon and we'll see it all..."[/color][/i] [color=0054a6]-- Words from the Young Captain Bailey[/color][/center]

[color=fff79a]Right so the Pitch is simple, in this fantasy steampunk world a band of misfits come together to form a pirate group together and escape the oppression of the "Academy" who has run the government and regulated the technology ever since the city's creation. The city is located in the middle of the ocean and trades with other locations in the world, but because of the nature of the government and the way the world works those who have been born in the city have never seen beyond the docks. The city is filled with steampunk technology, and intelligent clockwork robots known simply as "Clockhearts" that are strictly regulated to maintain obedience. We'd be interacting on the ship, exploring the close by world, causing trouble for the Academy, and making a living off plunder and our own devices. There's a few plot hooks we could explore towards an endgame, but this is just a rough pitch to see if anyone would be into the concept! Thanks for checking it out![/color]
