@Periodity Hi there, I saw that the RP status is full but I wonder if it is still possible to join or put my name on the list for later if there is an opening? Thanks!

@Expendable
Lovely cohesive backstory and I appreciate the amount of detail you added to her personality and relevant abilities! I advise you to take a second glance at the characters of the ship as Savva, much like Mamjir, will have been already recruited and have some type of relation to each of the crewmen. I see nothing wrong with this sheet, but out of curiosity, would you say Savva has some kind of long-term goal? From past experiences (mainly DnD), characters with an already-established goal are often easier to drive their story forward with. Extra points if it is a clear goal like Arzhang Deko's goal of becoming a lavish waiter, or Mamjir's goal of serving the duty set upon him.

In the corner, a small stick stuck into the lantern's flame flares into life and is carefully withdrawn, then touched to the tobacco in the bowl of the pipe. The flame flares, illuminating Savva's face in the shadows for a moment as she draws the flame down to ignite the tobacco. The first draw is harsh, but the cherry flavor begins to come through.

Her eyes water and she coughs, but takes another draw on the pipe.

"So, that's tobacco..." she manages a little hoarsely, shaking her head as she exhales the smoke.

"We met the MILOV in Kallokian. We left Little Rath in the middle of the night, riding all night long. Not a lot of places for an airship to tie up in Little Rath. I'm about to be embarrassed by the Mayor and his goons showing up after I've signed papers."

"Do you know what shade of green an embarrassed goblin becomes?" she pauses, sucking in the smoke, then exhaling. "Like slime you find in a swamp. And that's how I'm going to meet the crew, my face all dark that. Some of them might have even watched."

"My current goal is to get away," Savva nods, sucking the smoke into her lungs, then slowly exhales. "Long term goals I don't have, not yet anyway. But I've got dreams."

Leaning forward, she stares into your eyes. "I want people to look up to me. That's my dream. If I can make that happen, then I can set goals."

Life hit me like bricks, digesting the backlog now open to collab as I read up. Expect something from me shortly. You mentioned a manga, guess I should look that up too.

If you're having a rough time now and have a lot on your plate, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt anyone if you got a few more days to work on your sheet, don't sweat it. The manga is really not necessary to have read, it is just what I based this RP on (I felt like I was doing a disservice to it if I didn't at least reference it). Glad to hear you're still interested :]

@Periodity I catch up quick. I was thinking about an escaped goblin slave as a lingot deckhand that chats his head off but secretly eants to get into the clerical side of the biz instead of the backbreaking side. So maybe a poker shark too.(knows many languages from being a slave and gambling in the gulags)

Then we'd have two goblins haha, I believe Expendable's Savva is also a goblin. A character with a clerical interest sounds very intriguing (I'm assuming you mean a cleric with an interest in medicinal science rather than outright magic)!

Goblins the working folks of fantasy lol Oh maybe a curiosity in the magic but nostly how to heal people. Also apparently "More often than not, the Carpenter would also serve as the Ship's Surgeon and perform operations and amputations with the same wood working tools (with no anaesthetic!)." So theres thats.

Oh yes, I think I've read about that somewhere before. That was especially true on ships of the lower class. The reason I asked regarding the magic aspect of a cleric is that while this RP is fantasy, the magic that the crew would be able to use is rather limited. In the character creation section, I thought it best to have it on a mostly cosmetic level (at least at the start). I've found magic tends to get out of hand quickly without restrictions such as these.

Oh same here, the original plan was to start yesterday, but since the last two players haven't had time to finish their characters, I decided to push the dealine up a few days. The first IC will be up pn thursday in which everyone is expected to have finished their sheets :]
