SilasTalbot Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Greetings and a hoist of the tankard to all. Capt. Talbot here...and at least in this incarnation Capt. Talbot has much more rogueish blood than you may think. My home port is Boston, where my most well-known vessel makes port. But I've been known to commandeer others from time to time if it looks to be profitable. I work as a player on the stage and screen, basically making my living wearing tall boots and a sword. A few years ago that began to include roaming the ports of New England as a privateer in the service of the rebellion against the King. And like any good privateer, I'm looking to do more so long as there's profit to be had. This round is on me - here's to getting to know my fellow sea-wolves hereabouts. S.

SilasTalbot Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 "The Silas Talbot? The commander of the USS Constitution? Yer a few years after the GAoP, but welcome sir!" Thank you for asking - yes, I would be that Silas Talbot. And true is is that I am somewhat post-GAoP. But I am Capt. Talbot prior to the command of the Constitution...a proud (and profit-minded) privateer looking to take the King's ships as prizes and defend our New England ports. (Long story short - I work for the Freedom Trail Foundation in Boston playing Silas Talbot. It started with just the walking tours, but it grew into sailing on the Liberty Clipper and leading the Historic Pub Crawl, and this year may include going aboard the USS Constitution as Capt. Talbot on the July 4th turnaround). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
