We are pirates We are! we come here and play and enjoy that with which we give and share each day. This is a gathering of souls destimed to have met afore and will meet again where as a team of creative and barbaric happenings will be shared wothout the worry of grammer spelling or even proper English.

Our personalities are all different we share no comon goals but this one together we will sail the seas, together we will write a serious page of piracy history which will forever be saved and cherished by all. Thank you for coming aboard. The ship will be docked and repairs will be scheduled and made fer the next three wekks to four weeks. You can come and go as you like leave yer guns with Sir William. Huzzzah! Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.

I know our grand tour of this vessel was interrupted, but if my quarters are in the slightest more accomodating that Lady Kendra's, then I offer up my bunk to her. I'm not above sleeping between the guns or in the rigging, if need be. And, if I may, she should be better armed than a mere dagger, sir. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?

Begging your pardon, Jacob, but the quartermaster has begun the purchase of goods. The Master Gunner spent several hours in the purchase of swivel guns. The surgeon came aboard and stowed her instruments and in addition to her stowage of medicinal supplies, she spent the first half of an hour tending to a wounded man. The Ship's Master had us running thither and yon on errands. The inspection of the ships arms, both great and small has been ongoing and we fell in at orders to set about the preparation of the rigging for moving the ship. Not that we don't need some spit shine where our duties are concerned. Now, if you please, I'll have a list of your personal arms so that they be properly entered into the ship's log and lockers.
CaptainSwan Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 ~swan finally comes up. She's wearing her usual bi-layered skirt, off the shoulder white blouse and tightly sinched corset. Around her wrist are two fine black leather gauntlets. She is carrying a staff in her right hand and has a bow and quiver crossed over her chest and on her back. She looks to mad-jack and grins with a small nod.~ Mad-jack...I heard you were a fellow watchman with me. I'm swan a pleasure to meet ye. ~looks around and knits her brow for a moment.~ Sir William I've come to declare my weapons 8 throwing daggers 2 flintlocks 1 parrying dagger 2 swords 1 cutlass 1 staff one long bow and a quiver of 30 1 whip and 3 sets of shackles ~Swan begins disarming..1 dagger from each boot, pulls open a slit on each side pulls out 1 throwing dagger from each garter and a flintlock from her right garter and a parrying dagger from her left garter. She removes the 2 swords, cutlas and second flint lock from her belt. Hands over the staff she was carrying and pulls the bow and quiver from over her shoulders and pulls the whip out of her quiver as well. She loosens her gauntlets and pulls out 2 more throwing daggers, then pulls out 2 throwing daggers out of her corset. She grins.~ I had two sheathes built into my corset instead of stays. ~she spots her new crew mates and nods to them~ Welcome aboard, glad ta know ye. Wherever we want to go, we go. That's what a ship is; It's not just a keel and hull and a deck and sails. That's what a ship needs. But what a ship is really is freedom.
