ATLANTIS: The Lost Empire

Szalai Zalán

"Curse this storm", Szalai exclaimed as he narrowly avoided a wave that came crashing on the deck. Opening the door back inside with his right hand firmly on his hat to keep it from flying away. Closing it as fast as he could. With a clank, the door was closed and all was there was a wet Szalai wearing a black overcoat with a black hat. It was not as bad out there as he thought and it was a good idea to wear his overcoat. Even if the cotton overcoat offered little protection from the rain. At least he is not drenched and he just wanted to see the outside for a short time before spending the rest of the day inside the ship.

With his outdoor outing finished, Szalai took off his overcoat revealing his chothes underneath. Folding his overcoat the best he could before heading futher in to his bunk. He disliked being cooped up in the ship and it did help that this particularly ship was a large one. Even since that one cramped boat to Iceland for a business trip. He had been unease with being cooped up in a metal ship. At least this trip is poised to be a exciting one.

It did not take Szalai long for him to reach his bunk. He gently placed his wet overcoat on his bunk and his hat on top of the overcoat. Then feeling his hair to feel how wet it was and shook his hand once he was done. Not was wet as he thought.

Szalai was alone in the room and he exchanged some talk with his fellow crewmates on the expedition but, he has mainly kept to himself. Passing time by reading some books he had brought and watching the ocean from the outside deck. It was relaxing up until this storm arrived. Still there are plenty of things to do on this ship.

From his bunk, Szalai made his way to the cargo to get another look at the impressive submarine there. Mr. Whitmore must really belicve in the lost city is he spent this much money on finding it. Hopefully this trip proves to be a eventful one and they find something about Atlantis. It would be unfortunate if they find nothing but, Szalai has hope. As long as they can prove the city actually existed, he will be happy.

Once he arrived at the submarine, he stood in place and watched it. Eventually they will be inside of that thing and going down to the ocean floor to find the city. Eventually this adventure will begin and Szalai can not wait for it.

Hello

Hey, and new here. I have rped for a couple of years, mainly on forums like this one. My interests tend to vary from sci-fi, fantasy, post-apocalyptic and other genres. I have decided to come here after hearing about this place and seeing a couple of rps here that have piqued my interest. I hope to have some fun times here and some good stories. I might even create one when I am more comfortable here.
