Merry Easter, one and all. Happy Day if you celebrate it or, if not, I just hope it was a happy day anyways

You should laugh every moment you live, for you'll find it decidedly difficult afterwards.

Bio
Hey there, I assume you want to know about me so here it is...
The name is gowia (g-ow-ee-ah) or Alex. Or anything else you come up with, I'm not fussy.
I am a 25 year old male, though comfortably I'll play anything as a character.
I am a Brit born and bred and so that is my lingo, I use British words and love my slang, and if I don't seem to make sense I may simply be using English idioms that don't translate outside the rural country abodes I swan around.
I enjoy all sorts of things, I am an avid football (soccer) player and supporter, adore music, and live for a good story. I am in love with history. So you will always get a decent plot or conversation out of me on that subject.
If there is anything else you need to ask, feel free too. I swear I don't bite... much.

Haha I have just stolen Photoshop from a friend, hopefully I can make a better map and everything should be dandy and in layers. I will give making my own Theo for now however stay close to the phone cus I may get you to do it anyways. We have enough interested to start however I want all the nations up and finished in the nation dump before I make the first post and you can start colonising lands.
@Darthpaul: I shall PM you later today, have been busy with college work.
@Titanic: Yes we are still open, welcome aboard.:)
@Theodorable: Will do, thanks again for this. i would have a better if I still had photoshop however I got a new laptop and I am yet to get it so everything I am doing is being done poorly on paint.

That would be great Theo. I can send you the map I've quickly drawn up?
Dedonus you are correct. Cant believe I didnt see that:L yeah john you have minus 2, you need to change your traits.
With the plans drawn up for the new land ownerships Odenus sat back. It had been a long three hours and all of the great houses had wanted to put a fortune so as to gain the largest possible property, in the end two of the houses had large plots of land to the north and east whilst the other families had to suffice with the rest broken up into holdings. Promises also had to be made of more land to be given when other islands had been landed. However the other tribes would be wary of such fast growth and so he drafted a message to be sent to all tribes. The message read as follows.
With the message finished he rolled up each one and sealed it with wax in the royal seal fo the Draki, A dragon rising out of waves. Next he looked over the plans for raising of new ships. Currently the fleet numbered only 5 triremes however with these plans passed and the new resources brought in from the expansion the fleet would be quickly grown to 20 tiremes and a new Quinquereme style ship to act as a flag ship. FInally two new tanker ships were to be crafted as this would allow for the mass transportation of goods and settlers onto the new islands. Each new order was sealed and signed before a courier arrived to take them away. It had been a long day and Odenus was exhausted he was about to douse his lamp when there was another knock on the door. Three knocks. State business, shifting in his chair Odenus shouted enter and waited to see what other pieces of paper required his attention.
To the glorious leaders or representatives of the western tribes.
We, the Draki, have a long and noble history in these waters, our flotilla used to be the true power and trade bustled from all ports. However with the rise of the Marian Empire our islands and our navy was taken from us. We call you to Starharbour to feast and make merriment whilst we explain to you the plans we have for the islands. We hope to hear from you shortly and make preparation for your arrival.
Odenus Setrupus, chief of the Draki.

Dronas laughed at the worker who was talking to Adoniram, it took him 5 seconds to see Adoniram was not a guy who just chit chats and the conversation looked pretty sour. Standing he took a bow at his fellow crew mates.
"If you don't mind gentlemen I'm going to take a kip. Hopefully we will be on our way when I wake."
Dronas knew that he would wake as the ship took off. The take off always made him jumpy and when in air and space he could never get to sleep. Maybe he would see if there was anywhere he could practice shooting when he awoke.

Looks good John, I will have your rolls up soon, can't wait to see the flag.
You could darth paul however that would lack any real political roleplay or anything like that since everybody will be out to get you. I don't want a nation whose every post will be "We raided more ships".
