Forum: Casual Interest Checks
Good mornight to you :D! The Midnight Train has been chugging along for almost a year now, but recently we lost a couple of players and are looking for a few new ones to liven things up and fill the void. The first two chapters of the roleplay have been lost during the guildfall but if you're interested then I can bring you up to speed and summarize the events. However, while knowledge of past chapters would be helpful, it will not be necessary. We are currently nearing the end of the fourth chapter, and are looking for 1-2 people to hop in when the fifth chapter begins.
The RP itself is in the advanced section, but we only expect a minimum of three paragraphs per post (though don't get me wrong ^^ more is nice too. It depends on the situation). I decided to post the int.check there and here, in an attempt to reach a wider audience.
We'll get to the interesting part soon enough, but for now here is what I will be expecting from interested RPers.
+ I expect a minimum of three good paragraphs.
+ We are looking for communicative players who do not shy away from OOC discussion or chatter. Communication keeps a RP alive, so if you'd rather not toss in your own ideas or help us out with plans then this is NOT the RP for you.
+ We have something called the three day rule, and we take this very seriously. If you wish to join us, you must be capable of posting at least once ever three days [Example: If I post on the first of September, I will post again on the 4th and you better have a post up by then.]
+We also have something called the warning system. If you miss a cycle without telling us on the OOC, you will get a warning and if you get three of these warnings, you will be booted out of the RP. We value consistency and dedication, so if you'll be busy or away for some time please tell us in advance.
Andddd now to the interesting part ^^!

Have you heard the rumors about the midnight train?
You haven't? That's a pity, why don't you take a seat then, friend? I'll tell you all about the midnight train to Nowhere.
People say that once a year on New Year's eve an odd train of fleeting stars and neon lights rolls into the station. They say that if you see the midnight train, you'll find whatever you're wishing for inside it. All you have to do is believe, toss logic to the wind, and hop aboard. It sounds simple enough, appealing as well, but just not believable, don't you agree? They say the train is full of quirky passengers that aren't even human. I've heard of rabbits with rifles, mermaids with voices as heavenly as harps, and of mice who sing and ask for spare change. It almost sounds like a wonderland made by some bored kid, eh? I don't really believe it, but I won't judge you if you do. Still, the thought of getting what you wish for without losing so much as a penny is just great, right kid?
They say that people are lured into the train by what they wish for the most and that those who do get on the midnight train are whisked away to a world unlike our own, to a place called Nowhere. They say that in Nowhere the buildings stretch infinitely towards the construction paper night. They say Nowhere is supposed to be some magical place. A place where trains zip through the sky at the speed of light. They say the trains in Nowhere are so fast that each time one goes by, lightning flashes through the sky.
It's an interesting rumor, I'll have to admit that, but the existence of a place called Nowhere...it's rather silly, kid.
Despite how weird it is, I'll have to give it credit. That rumor has been spreading like wildfire for the past three years, and it gets worse when New Year is just around the corner. From time to time people have claimed to have seen the strange train, but I'm not sure I believe them. The local comedian who lives down the street said that last year he went to the station at midnight with his girlfriend. He's usually telling tall tales to get attention, but when he told us his story he actually looked afraid and a part of me just wanted to believe him. The logical side told me it was just some sort of hoax though and well, you know what they say, right? To see is to believe.
He told us that the train had arrived at exactly midnight and that it was different from all the other trains. He said he saw a rabbit inside, and that it was using a laptop of sorts, in fact he said he caught a glimpse of the passengers and that none of them were normal. We asked him for proof, like a photo or something but he said he was too scared to think straight and that he immediately grabbed his girlfriend by the hand and ran out without so much as looking back. I wonder if such an unbelievable tale can be true. I called him a liar and he got all flustered, in fact he started sputtering challenges and I couldn't stop myself from smirking. The idiot turned an even darker shade of red and I forgot what happened next but he dared me to see it for myself, on New Year's eve.
I don't have time for silly shenanigans, I've got a job after all and a family to look after. What's that kid? You're gonna check it out for me and take a picture? Eh, don't get your hopes too high, I doubt you'll see anything special. Fine, fine, if you insist. Just take care of yourself, okay? It can be dangerous out at night so bring a friend or two. Oh yeah, don't forget, send my regards to the midnight train that leads to Nowhere.
I will be picking 1-2 people. This will not be first come first serve, and people will be judged by their character sheets. The more unique your character, the higher the chance of you being accepted :) though by unique I mean that I don't want the characters to overlap too much. Example, if we already have a snarky doctor then I don't want another. I do not want Mary Sues or Gary Sues. Just give me something different :D! If you have any questions or concerns, toss them at me and I'll be happy to help (^w^)/

Pfft, captain xD isn't it like five in the morning where you're at?
What the celery are you even doing here? *Boots you back to bed* Go to sleep :P

"Now isn't this spooky?" Lucien looked right and left, eyes narrowed in suspicion. The summoner would have cracked a joke if not for Xan smacking him in the back of the head. It wasn't the time to mess around. If someone had sabotaged the generator on purpose then they had to keep on their toes and make sure no one got hurt, it was their job as guilders after all.
Amy asked about Marcus and Xan narrowed her eyes at the people around them. In this darkness, it would be hard to find him. "We were looking for him, but we haven't had any luck." Trixie, yanked both Aria and Lucien away, running up the stairs as she did so. She had the right idea, if someone had broken into the party then they needed to get to the bottom of this quickly, before anyone got hurt or before anything else went wrong.
"It'll be difficult to find him in the dark, so it might be best if we search the place. We'll run into him eventually." From what Xan had seen Marcus was probably the most experienced member of the pride, he'd be able to handle himself. "Amy," she tapped the woman on the shoulder. "I guess you'll be our light," she turned to look at Estelle. "Leader, where should be look first?"
Everyone shot them a dirty look and Lucien gave Trixie a sympathetic pat on the head.
"Kid, that's not how you handle a stickup." He yanked himself free then began strolling towards the guests. Lucien put on his most serious expression "okay, we know one of you broke the generator, yeah?" He narrowed his eyes at an offended looking lady. "We can do this the hard way or the easy way." In response he got a handbag to the face and Lucien fell on his backside his hands gripping onto his nose.
For a handbag, that thing was pretty solid! What did she carry around in it? Bricks?
One of the women shot an icy glare at the trio, lips pulled back into a scowl. "How dare you, this is something we've been looking forward to for a long time now...so before you go accusing people you better get your facts straight!" She marched towards Aria and Trixie, pointing a finger right into their faces, eyes narrowed and voice dripping with venom. "Who even invited the likes of you people?"
Lucien was scrambling to his feet. "Now, now, let's not get all murderous, please?" He popped up between the woman and both Trixie and Aria only for her to give him a disgusted look. "Accusing us! I've been preparing for this for so long. Do you even know how long it took me to pick out this dress?" She let out a frustrated yell before she began clobbering him with her handbag.
"Wondergirl--ack! Aria, requesting backup please--SAVE ME!" The summoner pleaded as he tried to fend off the woman's attacks.
Pach, that sounds so catchy. I'm a renegadeeeeeee *cool pose*
D: Best of luck Buns, if it helps, you should totally keep ice cream in your fridge and use it as inspiration! Rex, Trixie gave me ideas, thanks :D! If no one minds, I'll call the next post and as for music, currently, I'm blaming Scout for getting Riptide stuck in my head.
Edit: Posted ^w^)/ I controlled one of the guests a little, if I need to edit anything, I'll do so ASAP.

Good times indeed xD
Nolan: Kai, don't use your cutlas! We use potato peelers on potatoes ^^" and cutlasses on enemies.
8D Also we should totally get a mascot for the stardusk pirates! Maybe they meet an awesome cat in Waterdeep *shot* and whenever Kai gets mad they can use the kitten to try and calm him down. I mean, can you stay mad at this little fella, Kai? Plus he can be the official rat hunter of the group and keep the supplies safe <3
*throws in kitty*

The Coral Pearl
Luro began rambling on and Nolan couldn't help but chuckle.
The man was a good comrade, though a tad silly and hard to understand at times. Everyone eventually began voicing their will to help Kai and Nolan smiled. "The Captain's right you know, I guess in a sense were kind of like a big, dysfunctional family." Nolan puffed out his chest and gave everyone a salute. Sure, Kai was intimidating and they'd only traveled together for three weeks or so, but they had his back and he had theirs. They were good people, "we don't really have anyone else but each other." The last part he had uttered with a hint of bashfulness. "So don't worry about your flag, we'll do our best."
They finished up their meal and Ray complimented his cooking skills. "I'm glad you enjoyed it, there were a lot of supplies on board the slave ship." They continued to chatter the night away before it was time to clean up. The captain offered Danny a room but not before saying they were a bunch of stinky men. Nolan laughed at this before tapping Luro playfully on the shoulder. "I'll have you know, Luro's the only one who smells like rum though from time to time Ray does too." Nolan began pilling dishes one on top of the other then nodded when Marcos as asked to assist him. "The help is appreciated."
The captain joked about Luro and Ray helping and Nolan shook his head with a chuckle. "We'll be more than fine on our own." He recalled the last time Luro helped. The man had broken more than a few plates and it was pretty silly. "Let 'em have their fun." Nolan turned back to Marcos with a kind smile, "kitchen is this way, you said your name was Marcos, right? It's a pleasure to have you and the new girl on board with us." He made his way into the kitchen setting the dishes by the sink. "I can wash them and you can help me dry them, how does that sound Marcos?" The cook held out a hand towel and waited for the other man to take it. "While I was the dishes, feel free to take a seat on one of those crates, we have apples in them." Nolan brightened up, "feel free to have a bite, Hara is known for there wonderful apples so I made sure to stock up on them."
He wasn't the best brawler out there and he was clumsy with weapons, but when not in a fight Nolan could be pretty talkative and chipper. The man began washing dishes, swiftly, he had done so for years after all. "Now that you're with us, you won't have to worry about the slavers." His voice softened. Whatever it was Marcos had been through, it sounded unbearable and he wanted to help make his fellow crew mate feel at home. "You're with us now and we watch each others backs." He passed the man a wet plate too dry. "The captain and everyone up there," he chuckled, "they can be rowdy bunch from time to time, but they're good people."
