[quote=@Gunther] In the opening post, I have recapped conversations that brought the Captain, First Officer, and Chief of the Boat (COB) into the crew's manifest. Then, we see the Henshaw departing Portsmouth heading to sea for the first time three years ago. They have scavenged several ships across the globe, finally bringing us up to today in the Pacific south of Hawaii. I told a few of you, be prepared to write for a Pirate or Privateer who served aboard the Castillo del Mar in 1851. We will do a flashback in a bit. for those who are ready with characters for a second salvage ship, we will introduce them soon too. Yes, we will represent three separate ships in our writing. In the Navy, the COB is the senior enlisted person aboard ship. He would have held the rank of Warrant Officer Class 1 in the Royal Navy or Command Master Chief Petty Officer in the US Navy. In either case, the Chief of the boat is referred to as Chief or COB. [color=fff200][b]If someone would like to join this RP, we are still accepting applications. YOu can even take over one of hte NPC positions I have already spoken for if you wish.[/b][/color] [/quote] I just read through everything! It's off to a great start. I have a short first post drafted up if we're ready to start posting for characters. And I didn't know we're doing a second salvage ship but that's a cool idea. Did I miss anything on Discord? It's been a while and I was worried we'd all be on vacation forever lol
