Last Ship [Accepting]

Everybody's worse fear when boarding a cruise ship is it wrecking and either drowning or being stranded, or being eaten by the sharks who inhabit the salty ocean depths. If it goes right, going on a cruise could be very relaxing, a break from reality, just being out in the open with not a worry in the world. What do you do if it does go south, if you ended up stranded on an island in the middle of the ocean? That's what happens to a certain group of individuals, all strangers to the other. After a huge storm causes the ship to wreck on an island, the remaining survivors have got to band together to survive, which includes finding food, shelter, and really learning their survival skills.

But it isn't long until the group runs into trouble and discover they're not the only people who reside on the island, but that it is also a popular trade spot for some dangerous drug smugglers along with a deadly tribe, who really don't approve of the newcomers, so now the group has to not only survive the island, but survive the smugglers and tribe islanders as well and fight for their life.

Guidelines::

- Don't godmod another persons character. You have your own, so stick to it/them.
- You can play as many characters as you wish, as long as you can handle it, and I don't care what gender, but I would like to try and keep it even because I would like there to be some romantic elements in the RP.
- Keep it PG13, since this is a public forum. So any mature content fade to black.
- I get real life can get in the way sometimes, but if for some reason you're going to be gone awhile let us here know so the RP isn't being put on pause because you failed to let anyone know. If that's the case we will work around it and you'll be kicked out of the RP, unless you give me a good reason.
- I'm not too picky on length, just no one lines. Give at least a paragraph, but more is great and encouraged!
- Have fun and get along! This is made to just have fun, let loose, and escape reality for just a little bit! Any questions do not be afraid to ask!

Stranded based RP?

Yes, I was thinking beginning it off on the boat and play it out from there, I could play the captain whose controlling the boat when it wreaks and he just ends up not surviving and then I'll have my main character, and I agree to bring the baddies in later on. Can't get it all going off at the very beginning because then it'll get boring later on if we don't stretch it out. Great brainstorming guys! I'm working on the OOC thread right now!

Stranded based RP?

I think just neutral grounds for drug trading would be best, but we'd still need a couple people to play the "bad guy" role anyway or have some NPC some roles.

Stranded based RP?

Quick brainstorm- anyone got a creative name to title it? I'm terrible at thinking of titles.

Stranded based RP?

That's perfectly fine! I'm going to get to working on the OOC now guys and I'll put up the link here, thank you all for you're interests!

Stranded based RP?

Great!

So, are we going with the drug smuggling idea? I'll have the OOC up by tonight and post the link to it here. :-)

Stranded based RP?

I wasn't expecting this many to be interested so quick, awesome!

@bmxbrat484 Of course that'll be fine! Ya'll can play whatever character you want, it'd be fun to have a huge diversity.

I really like the drug smugglers idea, that would be real interesting.

Stranded based RP?

I've been thinking of starting up a shipwrecked and stranded on an island based RP, of course with a little drama added in, like maybe it's got a dangerous tribe that lives there, or surrounded with sharks, or at night bad things come out? There's a lot we can do with this, so I'm looking for people who are interested and ideas to throw out!
