Current You'd think after like 15 years I'd stop feeling like a fraud when writing posts but I still do which is both a statement on my self confidence and a compliment to how good my partners are as writers

I get that reference!


Name: Maebh Brannagh

Nicknames/Titles: 'Maybe'; May

Age: 26

Gender: Female

Allegiance: Herself and her motley, small crew, They sail currently under the employ of France, though they fly Irish colors both out of pride and out of spite to the English.

Allegiance Faction: HMS Strumpet. The name of the ship is in jest, as they are not part of the navy and the namesake of the ship leads to all manner of jests and jeers come docking.

Role: Captain of the HMS Strumpet, a ship whose sole purpose is the sinking of pirate vessels.

Personality: Due to living life aboard ships and around men of ill repute, Maebh (that's May-vee) has picked up her share of ill traits, from a foul mouth to a love of drink. A firm believer in order, Maebh does things aboard her ship in a very strict manner, expecting her crew to know their roles and to be doing their tasks before she gives the command. Those who do not follow orders are punished to the brig, or, depending on the severity, tossed overboard or marooned; there is no use for the useless aboard the Strumpet.

Despite her strict nature in captaining a crew, Maebh is a woman who commands and delivers respect and loyalty, all those who sail with her are considered family. Unfortunately, Maebh is easily angered and her short-fuse and shorter temper have led to scrapes where otherwise there wouldn't be one. She has no love of pirates or the English and just seeing either flag is enough to ruin her mood considerably. Though possessed of a hatred, when attacking and/or boarding an enemy ship, Maebh is not without mercy, she'll never kill an entire crew, but she'll also never take one for her own crew. Negotiation, however, is always on the table - especially when the terms are in her favor..

With a fair amount of drink in her, Maebh cannot shut up, which is why when she drinks she does so in the comforts of her quarters so as not to reveal any secrets. Once ashore, she enjoys spending time in the taverns with other men and women of the sea, though the drunkards making passes has gotten old, as has the constant mispronunciation of her name. But to their defense, Maebh does have a heavy accent and the people in the tavern can barely sit down.

Enhanced Ability: Bullet Control. Maebh's weapons of choice are her two flintlock pistols, engraved with the initials of her father on the left pistol and her mother on the right pistol. Though useful at shooting from a reasonable distance, the reload can mean the difference between life and death in combat situations. Which is precisely why Maebh never seems to have to reload in the midst of battle. Always having just enough gunpowder and one more lead ball ready to fire, once the guns are pulled out, Maebh only has to reload once the skirmish is over. Though reloading is not an issue, the rate of fire is. Though skilled, Maebh isn't able to constantly unload bullets, she does have to continuously make the gun ready to fire, setting the hammer and the like. Her guns are susceptible to the same issues as others, misfiring, not igniting, and missing. Maebh removes the need to reload, but not the hassle of maintaining a weapon in mid-fight.

Biography: Maebh was born in a small village located in County Clare, Ireland. Her father earned an honest living as a fisherman, though that did keep him away from home for several days, often weeks, at a time. Life was rather quiet in the village, the most exciting thing that happened was the fishing boats departing and arriving, but it was a good place to raise a family. Her father was a supporter of certain political parties, most of which were highly outspoken about the English due to the past actions of the country and the looming threats. Picked up by osmosis, Maebh supported her father and his beliefs, not truly understanding them until she got older. Maebh often pestered her father to take her on a fishing trip. Maebh got her wish.

Unfortunately the boat ran into stormy waters and did not make it back to County Clare. Maebh and her father, along with some fortunate shiphands, made it to an island, though Maebh's father did not survive the following few days. Surviving on caught fish, Maebh and the surviving crew ran into a stroke of good luck. The island was a frequent stop for a pirate crew due to fruit that grew there naturally. Maebh and the crew were taken aboard the ship though not as crew. Maebh endured the harsh treatment and imprisonment until the ship was attacked by a British convoy acting in self defense. Maebh was rescued, though didn't wish to be indebted to the British and after traveling with the British crew to land, she fled under cover of night.

Maebh cut her hair and found work aboard a merchant ship before eventually finding a place as a privateer for the Spanish. It was during this period where Maebh struck out on her own, rallying some of the other crew members to mutiny and take the ship as their own. Problems arose when it came to who should captain the new ship, though Maebh proved she was more than capable after silencing some of the dissenters with a good punch in the jaw. Maebh eventually raised a crew consisting of people with no love of pirates and they struck out onto the seas, hunting pirates and making themselves infamous due to it. They carry letters of marque from France so they can say they are acting as privateers, though in truth Maebh and crew are just pirates whose targets happen to be other pirates. Not in it for reward, just for the fun of it and the satisfaction of making the oceans a safer place for those who make a more honest living.

Maebh's reputation as a pirate hunter has earned her some note, but what tales are told about her stem from her temper and her difficult to pronounce name. The story around some ships is that when the ship with Irish flags is around, there Maebh trouble or there maybe won't be.

Maebh absolutely hates that story.

Likes: Ireland, spirits and drink, fresh fruit, the shanty Blood Red Roses which all crew members are required to sing.

Dislikes: Pirates, The Royal English Navy, staying ashore for too long, drunken seamen and their drunken hollerin' and caterwauling.

Family: Her mother, Aoife. The crew of the Strumpet.

Weapons: Two flintlock pistols. She carries a cutlass but is so poor with it that she's better off using her fists if it comes to it.

Miscellaneous: Maebh is actually poor at navigation, leaving such things to her quartermaster.

Name: Daphne Kim

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Grade: Junior



Personality: Daphne doesn't like you, but don't take it personally, she doesn't like anyone. No one is really sure if she's a loner or just a straight up ice queen, but what is known is that Daphne is downright mean and insulting towards others, particularly those who approach her and try to be friendly. It's led to a few detentions from people with softer skin and who are unable to handle insults about their choice of clothing or their stupid hobby. Loud mouthed and rude, it's not surprising that Daphne eats lunch by herself and only ever talks with her sister, but she's fine with that. In her mind, high school is just four years of tolerating people you'll never see again, so why bother getting to know anyone.

History: Contrary to the rumors spawned from her anti-social and rude attitude, Daphne doesn't come from a broken home and in fact both of her parents are attentive and supportive, though a bit on the strict side of things. The oldest of two siblings, Daphne takes responsibility over her younger sister, despite knowing that her sister is more than capable of making her own decisions. There's no specific time period where Daphne started wearing ripped clothing, but it happened prior to her first year of high school, coincidentally over the summer where her best friend in middle school announced that she and her family were moving halfway across the country. Pure coincidence that her outlook changed that summer, of course. Her parents are understandably concerned, moreso about the detentions than anything else, but Daphne has reassured them time and again that there's no problem going on, and since she's not failing any classes yet the parents seem okay with Daphne's antics, even if they don't outright condone them.

Electives: Art, Music

Any Sports Teams or Clubs: Drama Club, but she rarely shows up

Name: Maggie Kim

Gender: Female

Age: 15

Grade: Sophomore



Personality: Maggie is something of a social butterfly, engaging and enjoying talking and getting to know people, laughing, all that jazz. Though she enjoys laughng and sharing stories and the like, Maggie isn't all that funny or witty and her jokes fall on the awkward side of the fence, but her friends don't mind much - sometimes they'll even throw in a pity laugh or two. Maggie is a bit clumsy, though not on the level where she's tripping over air - more along the lines of being forgetful and often needing a reminder on otherwise important events. While friendly, Maggie will get defensive if anyone starts badmouthing or gossiping about her sister - family is a line that doesn't get crossed.

History: Born two years after Daphne, Maggie enjoyed all the privileges that being a younger sibling had to offer. More attention from her parents, a constant guardian in her older sister, and someone she could always rely on. As the siblings grew up, their interests changed as well. Maggie became highly interested in music, specifically making it while Daphne took an interest in nothing. Since the age of thirteen, Maggie has been experimenting with various computer programs to make music, though most of what she produces sounds horrible - at least that's what word around the house is. Though her hobby and even her goal involve creating music, she is far too self conscious and un-confident to let anyone outside of her family hear her creations.

Electives: Music, Computer Software

Any Sports Teams or Clubs: Music Club

Anything Else: Maggie also happens to be a fan of comic books. They started as Daphne's hand me downs but Maggie enjoys reading them when she can get them.
