Title: Tomorrow of Yesterday
Description: A steampunk pirate and navy role play...
Haiyato Berzerker - June 3, 2008 02:29 AM (GMT)
(x3 thank you for the name idea Ubbie)
After a still unexplainable event centuries ago, man kind now lives on massive chunks of floating earth. Their main forms of transportation: airships.
Pirates ravage smaller towns, taking what they want and need, food, supplies, women. The navy has taken many measures to stop these pirates. Several pirates have connections to warehouses to hide their airboats in and resupply. The navy began cracking down on these, with little luck of course.
Now the navy is on the eve of sending large fleets out to take out as many pirates as they can.
------
So, basically it is a steam punk role play, based mostly around large airships/air boats. Any weapons from medival to the old school revolver like pistols, muskets, cannons and the old crank gatling guns.
The airboats can hold between 2 to 10 small gliders along with afew cannons and crank gatlingguns and all. These gliders can vary from small gliders that have folding wings to allow for boarding parties, ones that can carry small bombs and even a rather expensive variety with a motor and propeller that allows the user to fire a weapon while flying it. Larger airboats are allowed to have a small crew controlled among the players having characters on that boat
The usual role play rules apply, you have to play as a human character, no magic or powers.
I'd prefer everyone to not want their own airboat or airship because it will get confusing. So to solve this, you must have a minimum of five characters per airboat. Everyone may have a maximum of three characters per role player.

mothblue - June 4, 2008 12:54 AM (GMT)
Name: Flora Ashton
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Role: Navigator on White Mistress
Appearance:

Except when she's in uniform, of course.
Bio: Flora's father worked as a merchant, carting vital medications between vairous chunks of earth. At the age of seven, though, he never returned home, and three years later she and her mother were informed of her father's death. His ship had been hijacked by air pirates.
This toughened the girl, who until then had led a very sheltered life. At her father's funeral (they'd found a few pieces of his body, so decided to send them out into the ocean as her family had been doing as long as anyone could remember) she made a vow to do whatever was in her power to stop pirates. Not to be a good girl, and keep other's from feeling the grief that she felt. Flora's heart was hardened by this event, and the fact that her mother became bedridden from sorrow after it occured. There was nothing ten year old Flora desired more than revenge.
She's pretty tough, and doesn't have sympathy for small things, but can be kind if some one has a serious problem. She has a burly, almost masculine sense of humor, making her the famous 'female guy friend' of boys and the disgusting 'perverted chick' of the girls. She sort of has a 'Commodore Norrington' mindset about pirates. She will do anything within her power to kill any pirate she meets.
Equipment: pistol, navigation equipment

Naraku means hell! - June 5, 2008 01:58 AM (GMT)
Will this lovely shize do?
Name: Mercutio Arakis
Age: 13
Gender: Male
Role: Pirate, cabin boy on the Vengency Blood
Appearance: MercutioBio: Few are born so high on the political ladder as this boy, and even fewer fall so far. Born the son of Lord Escalus Arakis, the head of a prominent aristocratic family, Mercutio lived the life of your average spoiled brat until about the age of eight. It was then that the source of his father's ever expanding income was discovered. Lord Arakis was found to be providing a haven for pirates, provided they give the proper 'tokens of appreciation.' Such an act would not stand, not even for a lord. As such, Mercutio's father was executed, leaving the grieving Arakis family with the shame of his crimes, and a soon confiscated fortune. As they made the change from a life of luxury to a working class life, Mercutio's mother died of an unknown illness, simply unable to handle the adjustment.
As such, it was up to Mercutio's older brother, Horatio, to provide for the two remain Arakises. In a last ditch attempt to do so, Horatio joined the navy, leaving his beloved little brother behind with a goodbye in the form of, "Do what you know is right.."
That's exactly what Mercutio has done. Two years ago, during a raid from the airship 'Vengency Blood,' the young man stowed away onboard the vessel. Soon found out, he somehow convinced the captain to allow him to stay as cabin boy. In the little free time he has, Mercutio learns to fence, to fight, essentially anything anyone will teach him. Though he knows it to be a cliche, the former aristocrat wants nothing more than revenge. Revenge against the government that took from him his dignity, his parents, and the brother he longs to see again...
Equipment: Dagger, pistol (One shot, then it's a club)
Name: Horatio Arakis
Age: 21
Gender:Male
Role: Navy, lieutenent on the White Mistress
Appearance: This, but in a 1800s British navy uniformBio: Few are born so high on the political ladder as this boy, and even fewer fall so far. Born the son of Lord Escalus Arakis, the head of a prominent aristocratic family, Horatio lived the life of your average spoiled brat until the age of 16. It was then that the source of his father's ever expanding income was discovered. Lord Arakis was found to be providing a haven for pirates, provided they give the proper 'tokens of appreciation.' Such an act would not stand, not even for a lord. As such, Horatio's father was executed, leaving the grieving Arakis family with the shame of his crimes, and a soon confiscated fortune. As they made the change from a life of luxury to a working class life, Horatio's mother died of an unknown illness, simply unable to handle the adjustment.
As such, it was up to Horatio to provide for himself and his little brother, Mercutio. In a last ditch attempt to do so, Horatio joined the navy, leaving his beloved little brother behind with a goodbye in the form of, "Do what you know is right.."
Horatio never told his brother this, but the main thing fueling his decision to join the navy was not the money, it was the glory. The young lieutenent hopes that by serving his government, he might restore that glory that was snuffed out by his father's actions. As such, he follows orders to the letter, his mind straying only to wonder about the fate of his beloved little brother, gone missing during a pirate raid two years ago...
Equipment: Musket with a bayonet and a revolver

both accepted
and now we're going to begin!
Reza:
I stood, leaning on the railing of the Vengency Blood, currently docked in a small warehouse where we could resupply. I eye'd the crew working to load the medium sized airboat. I eye'd the cannon near the front and two gatling guns about mid way on the sides.
"Today's been nothing but boring...." I muttered.
Akhom:
I was, I guess, standing guard at a small door of the warehouse. It lead out onto the streets and for now I was just inside the warehouse leaning against the wall next to the door.
Anton:
I was aboard the White Mistress, looking over several charts spread out over a table. Wondering what would happen if we did come across any pirates.
Naraku means hell! - June 5, 2008 02:20 AM (GMT)
Mercutio
Average day thusfar, nothing really happened but the usual orders of 'stop with that folly (in this case, learning to knife fight) and get back to work.' Mercutio let out a sigh, muttering about how being a pirate wasn't as adventurous as it was hyped as..
Horatio
Very dull day... at least, dull for a soldier. The basic summary: First drill, then drill, followed by drill, then drill, proceeding to drill, and lastly drill...
mothblue - June 5, 2008 02:26 AM (GMT)
Flora sighed, as she twisted her hair into a bun under her hat. She'd taken forever to awaken, and knew that she was late to her post. Even so, she had to look presentable.
As always, she clasped an exotic necklace around her neck: it was the last gift her father had ever given her, from a faraway land. She always felt a pang of anger as she fastened it, but it had dulled over the years. Grabbing her pistol of her night table she slipped it into the hollister, and then raced towards the room where she was to be helping discuss charts with her boss.
To her dismay, he was already there, and so would certainly notice her tardiness. "Hey, Boss," she said loudly, figuring it was best to get the nonsense of his annoyance over with.
The Ubbergeek2 - June 5, 2008 03:32 AM (GMT)
*In the lookout post of the vangeancy Blood, the man was sat down, legs crossed in the meditative stance. he had been there since they entered, readying his mind for any battle and focusing in peace. Rather high above...*
Jostanos - June 5, 2008 05:36 AM (GMT)
(Note: For those that know Sonic (Lt. Col. Jostanos 'Sonic' Silver), He is going to be "Lt. Col. Jostanos Crux" in this RPG. His uniform will be about the same as his state alchemist one. To tell the truth... :hehe: I can barely tell the difference. ^^)
It was to be another morning like any other morning to the brown eyed and haired Lt Col. of the White Mistress.
After making sure that he had put his uniform on correctly (Sometimes in a rush he has been known to put his pants and coat on backwards! XD), he did a weapons check as he placed them on his person.
"Sword in sheath: Check" he places them on his belt.
"Composite Bow and arrows: Standing in the closet for when needed: Check" he grinned "Everything is in place. Now to see where we are."
Looking out his windows the Lt. Col. notices something.. "We are out of position!" And rushes over to his charts.
A couple hours later...
Looking up from the charts Lt. Col. Jostanos Crux muttered semi-darkly to Flora, "You're late." Then he thought for a moment and chuckled " 'Hey boss'? Is that the best you can come up with?" Not waiting for a reply the Lt. continued showing the current charts to Flora. "We seemed to have drifted off course a little during the night. Instead of here. *points to a place on the charts..* We are here. *points to another place* "
(Jostanos Crux: O_O ... >_> Jostanos-sama... You can't be serious. I'm like a buffoon in the beginning.
me: Ah.. But it gets better later on I assure you, Jos. Trust me. ^^
Jostanos Crux: -_- Riiight. Trust you.)
(@ Jesse: :hehe: I hope I did not ruin anything, Jess. Jacrose and Sylt may be in my next post ^^)

~Willow~
I leaned over the edge of the railing. If there soldiers thought their lives were dull, they should try mine. Being a civilian on a navy ship without navy job was dull. I sighed and watched some birds fly by. Julian was below deck, trying to find the something to do. I looked around the deck and a a young man. His name was... Horatio. I remember meeting him when I first came here. That seemed forever ago. "Mom... why did you leave..." I whispered, looking up.
~Julian~
I walked around below deck, trying to find something to do other than drills. But it seemed like everyone wasn't in need of my help. I sighed, and leaned against a few box, waiting.
kyo_kitty666 - June 6, 2008 12:42 AM (GMT)
Aminiko-
I stared over the edge of the airship as it shuddered in the breeze and sighed. Sister was still asleep, and I was bored. I had nothing to do until I got an order, and no one seemed to have noticed I was even on the airship. Since both my sister and I were new on the ship, we were pretty much ignored. I sighed, reached up, and pulled the ribbon out of my hair, letting it fall around my shoulders loosely. A bird flitted past, and I lifted my head, letting my voice carry on the wind. The foreign words tingled on my lips, and I kept singing, the light, silvery bird coming closer, daring to see what I was doing.
Katsami-
I grunted, turned onto my stomach, and reached down onto the bottom bunk of our beds for my sister. But her bed was empty. I stood, and cracked my head on the ceiling.
"Owwwwwww!!!" I whined, and rubbed my head.
"Mini!! Where aaaaaaaaaarree you???"
The whistling wind answered me, carrying a light voice on it. The voice sounded a bit like my mother's, but not quite. I couldn't place it. And, my head still huuuuuuurt...

Flora sighed for a moment, and look up at the sun, and then the clock. "Okay. I would guess North East North for about ah... six hours..." and then we'd be at least where we had intended to be this morning." She went and tinkered with various brass intruments and sighed, "Um, I think it would be wise to continue in this direction and then go East further north. There's a fifty percent chance of a storm that way."
Smiling, she shurgged, "What's wrong with 'Hey boss.' It could have been so much worse. Besides, I knew it would get your attention."

Reza:
By now the Vengency Blood had been loaded and had taken off. taking a slow course through some small chunks of floating earth.
"Another boring day..." I muttered, leaning against the large wooden pole that the watch post was up on.
The breeze was nice atleast.
Akhom:
I was below deck, cleaning my musket, though it really did not need it. I guess I was just concerned that it might miss fire on me. I've seen bad results from musket miss fires on fellow pirates.
Anton:
I watched over the soldiers doing drills, bored. I looked around, then motioned for someone to bring me a telescopt. I think I saw another airship.
(hope I'm not moving to fast)
Naraku means hell! - June 6, 2008 01:20 AM (GMT)
Horatio
Ever the brown noser, Horatio practically jumped at the chance to bring Commador Wiederich the telescope. After handing it over to him, Horatio stood at attention, awaiting further instructions...
Mercutio
As for the younger Arakis, Mercutio was below deck, taking care of the assorted weapons. Whilst cleaning out the assorted muskets, the boy noticed that someone was (le gasp) actually taking care of his own musket! Mercutio made a mental note to thank him for relieving him of a (admittedly miniscule) part of his work..
(I kinda like the speed we're going at. It's the fastest RP I've ever been in...
Also, is it odd that I keep forgetting we're not in the ocean?)
The Ubbergeek2 - June 6, 2008 01:48 AM (GMT)
*The chinese pirate was resting against the lookout's wall, eying the 'sea' quietly. His eyes had the precesion of an eagle, and the coldness as he glances at the 'earth mothes', trying to find things like loothable base, or nav ships...*
Volital - June 7, 2008 12:32 AM (GMT)
Name: Alyssa Hughes
Age: 17-20
Gender: Female, and she makes sure everyone knows.
Role : Pirate, the Cooker, Slaver Driver, and thief of the ship.
Appearance: Her brown, curly hair is pulled back behind her head in a ponytail, and it is legend with her crew-mates that it never comes down. Her eyes are mischievous, a light purple shade that catches everything. Somehow Alyssa's skin stays pale in the heat of the sun, only browning slightly in summer. She always wears plain brown pants and a cream shirt, her only ornaments a jade drop in her right ear that accents her eyes.
Bio: No-one knows where Alyssa came from, only that she was on the ship before everyone else. All the older pirates who knew what her story was died in battles or jumped ship. Alyssa herself doesn't know for sure, but really doesn't care.
She cooks for the entire crew, and refuses to drink even when pressed. If you piss her off she can toss you over the rail. Every punch you throw at her misses or slids off, like she is coated in oil.
That quality comes in handy. She is the ship's best thief, able to sneak onboard a Navy Ship and steal something in the Captain's own room. She's done it before.
She doesn't take anything from anyone, usually returning the insults. Everyone leaves her alone now. Despite appearances, Alyssa is very happy with where she is, and doesn't care about what she's made of herself.
Equipment: Picklocks, knives, black outfit w/ mask, compass, rope, grappling hook. She usually doesn't carry all that around, though. Only when she... You know.
Name : Lucas Bright
Age : 19
Gender : Male
Role : Oscurato Sharp-shooter/lookout.
Appearance : Lucas
Bio : Lucas was abandoned at birth, and hopped onto a pirate ship by mistake when he was seven. He wasn't killed, and instead was welcomed aboard. They've been best friends since the third day and Alyssa shouted at a man who tried to push him into the kitchen.
(Obviously she has been the cook for a long time, lol)
He's a sharp eye with a gun and doubles as a look-out.
Equipment : His gun, his ammo, a knife.

~Willow~
I turned away from the rail, noticing something was going on. I leaned against the rail and watched, waiting to be told whether or not I was in the way. It had been awhile since anything had happened on this ship. During the few month I had been aboard the ship, we've only had one encounter with pirate. "How dull... I'd rather go back and live with father." I muttered.

^_^ I have a solution! Make another pirate ship!

Dark Ninja! NO
Oscurato? It sounds cool, means "Obscured" in Italian...

(sure I guess, though you have to control its entire crew and possibly allow others characters to be placed on it)

(( ^_^ KayKay!))
Alyssa surveyed the ship. It was nearly noon, and still no-one was coming to the galley. She wouldn't be able to make her own food until someone else volunteered (by VOLUNTEERED she meant that she made anyone who came in unawares do most of the work) to help.
Sighing, she stood from her perch on the stool and walked outside.
Predictably, most of the crew was outside the door and just around the corner, trying to push the small cabin boy into going in first.
"You," Alyssa pointed to one of the people trying to push him around the corner.
He looked up, freezing. Everyone stepped back.
"Come on, lunch won't make itself." She walked back around the corner and the man followed meekly.
"Why do I gotta do it?" He whined.
"Because I felt like it." Alyssa retorted. He was one of the group she secretly called "Cannon Fodder," Not too bright or skilled, he was usually one of the people loading the cannons or being killed above deck. Nobody would miss him.
Lunch was ready in record time. Of course, the cannon fodder did not want to stay long in the kitchen.

-Lexi-
I walked onto the deck of the White Mistress. I let out a soft sigh as I leaned over the railing. I watched the clouds pass under us and smiled. This feeling was great. Ive dreamt about it all my life and I was finally experiencing it. I straightened up and placed a hand over my eyes, shielding it from the sun. My bright azure gaze gazed off ito the endless blue sky and I dropped my hand. I spread out my arms and spun around. My coal colored hair fraing out behind me. I had nothing better to do and it was warm out. So why not enjoy it while it lasts. I wonder where everyone else is at?

Alyssa sighed, finishing her meal. She stood and stretched, walking out onto the deck.
The Oscurato was a small-ish boat, with only two decks and barely 80 feet long. When you think about it, that's not all that big. It was agile though, and it's guns made up for the size.
If it got rammed, though... It would crack in half.
She climbed the metal rungs on the outside of the galley, onto the roof. She heard wolf-whistles from inside as she passed a porthole.
She stopped and turned.
"You," She pointed at the pirate who had the gall to flirt. "Be in the kitchen tonight at 6."
Silence fell as she walked to the mast, avoiding the boom with the ease of long practice. It was an airship, but it had sails for extra maneuvering that would be needed if they ran out of fuel. It had happened almost every voyage, since the ship was so small.
She climbed another ladder, up to the Crow's Nest.
Lucas didn't react to her presence.
"See anything?" She asked. He had his eye to the spyglass always kept in the Nest.
"I think so... Yes. I see something." He pointed to the northeast.
Alyssa squinted. "I see nothing. Gimme that." She snatched the spyglass despite his protests."
It was a ship. Impossible to see if it was a Navy or fellow Pirate, but the latter only boded slightly less ill.
She opened a metal tube nailed to the side, the one labeled "Captain."
"Captain!"

'ANother quiet day.' *The warrior-pirate thought, sat down against the railing of the lookout. Always watching the horizon for any interesting or problematic thing.*

It was to be another morning like any other morning to the brown eyed and haired Lt Col. of the White Mistress.
After making sure that he had put his uniform on correctly (Sometimes in a rush he has been known to put his pants and coat on backwards! XD), he did a weapons check as he placed them on his person.
"Sword in sheath: Check" he places them on his belt. "Composite Bow and arrows: Standing in the closet for when needed: Check" he grinned "Everything is in place. Now to see where we are."
Looking out his windows the Lt. Col. notices something.. "We are out of position!" And rushes over to his charts.
A couple hours later...
Looking up from the charts Lt. Col. Jostanos Crux muttered semi-darkly to Flora, "You're late." Then he thought for a moment and chuckled " 'Hey boss'? Is that the best you can come up with?" Not waiting for a reply the Lt. continued showing the current charts to Flora. "We seemed to have drifted off course a little during the night. Instead of here. *points to a place on the charts..* We are here. *points to another place* "
(Jostanos Crux: O_O ... >_> Jostanos-sama... You can't be serious. I'm like a buffoon in the beginning.
me: Ah.. But it gets better later on I assure you, Jos. Trust me. ^^
Jostanos Crux: -_- Riiight. Trust you.)
(@ Jesse: :hehe: I hope I did not ruin anything, Jess. Jacrose and Sylt may be in my next post ^^) |
Flora sighed for a moment, and look up at the sun, and then the clock. "Okay. I would guess North East North for about ah... six hours..." and then we'd be at least where we had intended to be this morning." She went and tinkered with various brass intruments and sighed, "Um, I think it would be wise to continue in this direction and then go East further north. There's a fifty percent chance of a storm that way."
Smiling, she shurgged, "What's wrong with 'Hey boss.' It could have been so much worse. Besides, I knew it would get your attention."
|
After relaying the corected course to the helms-person, the Lt. Colonel returned his attention to Flora and grinned, "But I've heard that you've said far worse to get attention at your last post. what was it again?" Jostanos thinks about that for a moment tapping his finger on his chin then snaps his fingers "The Oreleander! what ever happend to that ship any way?"
**
In a bar on one of the many islands, a lone Pirate is sleeps off a hangover from a long shore leave.
"Hey!" Shouts someone near by, "There's no sleeping at the bar. Get up and find your ship or a room!"
"My ship donnn't leave 'til ten thirty FLunes." the sleepy head slurred sleepily.
"Well you just missed it then." the person hmphed "It's going on 12 now!"
THAT woke the sleeping drunk up!
"O_O WHAT?! My Ship Left with out me?!"
The person only nods and pints to a speck on the horizon.
Growling, and now released from his drunkeness, the ex- sleepy drunk rants "HOW DARE THEY LEAVE JACROSE THE NINJA THIEF BEHIND!" then he looks at the person who woke hime up and nervously chuckles " :hehe: You're not gonna tell any body what I just shouted are ya?"
The barkeep (the person) shakes his head "No" and points out the window at the stunned people looking in.
" -_- Oh shards."
mothblue - June 8, 2008 11:53 PM (GMT)
Flora gritted her teeth. "Pirates, that's what happened. And I recall my old boss was a half-deaf pervert. It wasn't easy to get his attention." She laughed, and continued to scan charts and brass machinery.
"There's a heavy north easterly today. If we ride it we'll get much better time."

(as of this point, I'd prefer no one else joins due to possible confusion ^^; )
Reza:
Still nothing too exciting, other then we were continuing on our course. I looked around at the crew, lazing around, keeping guard or just chatting with other crew members.
I looked up at the crew member in the crows nest of the Vengency Blood, he seemed to have something keeping him content atleast.
Akhom:
I looked down at the people from the higher deck, watching for abit. I then turned my attention to some of the others around me.
"Wonder what we're off to do next..." I thought.
Anton:
I walked over to the railing, now with a telescope a member of the crew had handed me. I gazed through it and towards what I believed to be another airship.

I walked onto the deck and saw Anton at the railing, and Willow. I walked over to her quickly. "What's going on?"
"I'm not sure. That guy over there gave Anton the telescope and he's been looking that way since he's gotten it. Maybe there's land."
