<center>The Crew of the Sea Stryder
Good evening all fine ladies and gents, and welcome to the Sea Stryder.
We are scurvy folk, rotten to the core; watch out lest we run you through.
Shall ye be up to it, there is great bounty to be found.
But be warned; once you step aboard there is no turning back.
History
Badelt was dead. The old fool had finally slipped up. 'Jack' Rackham was the one who cut his limp body down in the middle of a rainy night and carried him to the dock. Rackham hauled Badelt onto an Imperial ship where the guards were alseep and lit a fuse in the powder room. The old man wouldd've like that. The blast ripped the ship in two, which promptly sank in the harbor and the papers started rumors. The rumors circled for weeks afterwards; the craziest of which included Badelt still alive and having done it himself. And people believed it too, despite his having hung from the gallows for a day and a half.
But Rackham didn't stay long enough to hear the whole lot of them. Two days later he and an old friend, Tyler Ayers, jumped aboard a small armed merchant ship and threw the three-man crew overboard in the bay. They sailed all the way to Saratosa before they stopped, not knowing what exactly to do from there. Perhaps they could find the old captain that Badelt had always talked about, or maybe they were just out for a little bit of fun. One thing was for sure, they needed supplies and a crew, and Saratosa was the perfect place to find both.
The Ship
The ship, the Sea Stryder is a small, two-masted, eight gun vessel ideal for piracy. It is quick and manuverable, but has small firepower.
Lofty Goals and Aspirations
Our goals are the same as those of any self-respecting Pirate – to gain riches by any unlawful way possible, to drink copious amounts of booze, and to bed as many women as we can. It is a simple life, but if it a pirate’s life for you, come aboard, grab some grog, and hoist the mains’l!
Requirements
Just be active and keep the level of decency and commotion to a 'scurvy' level. I ask that all members try and post at least twice a week, on role plays or the crew thread.
Perhaps I'll come up with a nice siggy. Any suggestions?
