Hehe well I am Australian so that's kind of fitting. :lol:

It's still 7 for 6 since I hadn't counted your second character yet. I'm the only one with 2 characters so far.

My mission, should I choose to accept it, is to back up Argent as vice GM.
I'm honoured to accept. I shall treat this station with all the dignity and respect it deserves, by which I mean I shall abuse the power as much as I can. Should be fun. :D

Pirate captains _always_ have either a parrot or a monkey. Always. It's a fact of nature!

There's no reason another sailor couldn't have a monkey. It's just that if you belong to the captain you have to be a parrot or a monkey by the law of narrative inevitability.

Hmm... All those characters look good to you guys? 6 players is enough.

Who's going to be the GM? Decide on that, then they can start an OOC thread to continue discussing.


And by the way, I would assume that everyone on the ship has some sort of job to earn whatever it is that they're getting by being there...

Re: Pet Friendly: Main OOC

Well, here's my first character. Hopefully they get accepted.

Name: Snow Evans

Species: Cat

Age: 17 cat years

Neighborhood: Richmond Acres

Apperance: Snow has white fur, which for the most part is kept neat. She wears a small black collar with a small, silver bell hanging from it. Her eyes are blue. One of her legs has a scratch on it, though it is healing. She sometimes wears a deep blue scarf. She is somewhat small and thin. She usually has wide eyes and somewhat lowered ears, and has a tendency to nervously glance around.

Personality: Snow is shy and bashful, though tries her best to be friendly. She tends to be a bit on the trusting side, with people she knows well, but not so much with strangers. She is very self-conscious, apologizing fairly frequently. She has an interest in music, namely piano and violin. She writes occasionally, but tends to suffer from severe writer's block. She has slight abandonment issues, but she keeps the suppressed usually.

History: She was raised by a small family named the Brooks who lived in a little town in the woods. She, along with the two children of the family, were usually bought most things they wanted, even though this led to debt quickly. As time went by the family became poor, and eventually they decided that they had to give Snow to the Evan family. For most of her life, she lived with another cat in the small town. She was given a violin as a birthday present from the Brooks when she was still young and grew attached to it, and the Brooks soon after moved away. The Evans chose to move due to a job offering a good distance away. Since it was not possible to travel to and from the job daily, and the costs that came with having two houses were too much, they decided to move closer to the offer, settling on Richmond Acres.

Other Notes:
  • The bell lacks a clapper, and therefore doesn't make noise.
  • Her leg injury will make her somewhat slower on that leg until it heals.

I hope three "anchor" messages is an acceptable exception to the "double posting" rules, I think we'll need them.

I'm not sure if there's even a rule for triple posting. I doubt it happens very often. I think it'll be fine though, given the nature of the posts.

Re: Pet Friendly: Main OOC

I'm redoing my character a bit, on account of the inexplicable shortage of female PCs:

-Name-
Bowsprit

-Character Type-
Main Character

-Species-
Rat

-Age-
3 (teenage for a rat, I guess, if rats live as long as other HP characters make that 7).

-Neighborhood-
17th Century Fox

-Appearance-
A young Norway Rat, she's the general gofer for the head rat on the good ship "Impudence".

-Personality-
Bold, brassy, not sure of herself, given to extravagant praise (mainly of her "captain"... captain of the rats, mind, not the actual human captain of the ship) and boasting and flowery language (and sometimes archaic even for the 1600s).

-Other Notes-
She's a big fan of medieval "romances", which were full of bold crusaders and knights and their squires going to battle for their king and country. As a rat, she naturally sees herself as the hero in these fantasies. Her "country" is the Impudence, and her "king" is William Bandy. Her deeds of derring-do, however, are limited to filching bread and sausage from under the whiskers of the ships cats.

-SPECIAL-
STR-4
PER-7
END-6
CHA-4
INT-6
AGI-8
LUC-7

For reference, OOC thread is https://www.housepetscomic.com/forums/v ... 32&start=0 and I'll add a link to the IC thread when I have it started. I need to sit and think about the first post, probably this evening squirrels permitting.

Forgot to cross post here.
Name: Gulley Carmen

Species: Rat

Gender: Male

Age: 5 (or, about the equivelant of the species adolescent age)

-Neighborhood-
17th Century Fox

Color: This.

Background: The son of a church mouse, Gulley was always getting into and out of trouble. As a result, he was made to peel potatoes often, but that didn't seem any good for he loved the smell of good food. Of which, the church grounds often seemed lacking. His love of food and longing for adventure made him want to leave his home town and join the circus. The circus was set to sail Spain, but was caught in a storm and left Gulley clinging to a rope logged piece of drift wood heading towards a pirate ship...

Personality: Gulley is friendly, trustworthy, dependable, likable, up until the point he makes off with your cheese sandwhich! He's not all guile and thievery though. And will mostly give it back if he hasn't eaten it yet when, if you catch him. Though if you don't catch him, expect something nice back a couple days later. Growing up in a church he's heard one or two many sermons and his guilty consciuos won't let him rest! Getting to know him will get you a true soul as a friend. If you can put up with is unfairly good nose and insatiable thirst for knowledge that is.

In private he is more energetic and fun, until somebody walks in on him getting in trouble.

Other Notes: He was a dog found after his owner, a 98 year old man, died. He was walking around some cities and got saved by a man who took him into his house before the dog catchers showed up. He went to a church and stayed through the whole thing, which got him his name.

there's a tiny problem with your character my friend^^"
he broke both high and low limits :lol:
you need to take 42 points,and spread them between the seven attributes. You must put at least 2 points in each one, and the most you can put in one is 10 . Might wanna change it up a bit :P
