If we are having a "Tortuga"-ish place, I want to run a tavern/inn! ๐Ÿ˜‚

We absolutely can do that! ๐Ÿ˜ You would do a great job!

As for my character ~ I'm leaning towards a first mate, so if anyone is looking for one I'm your gal!
 
I'd be willing to have your character on as a first mate. I don't have details really planned but my idea was to toe the line of neutrality, doing bad things as a pirate obviously but not being a terribly cruel person unless suitably angered or otherwise provoked. Was thinking more along the lines of a captain who believes in freedom more than anything and thus focuses his efforts mainly on military supply vessels whenever possible.
 
Are we thinking a single crew, or will there be a couple? If the latter, will there be player on player conflicts?
 
It sounds like multiple crews since more than one person is wanting to be a captain.

And I don't know of this is Pastel's first time running a group Ever or just on BMR, so we should try to be nice and not overwhelm her if she's never done it before.
 
I agree. I'd like a little more of an idea of the game play structure, but definitely whether we're one crew or multiple crews is a major factor. I would even say a thread for each ship so we're not tripping over posts that are happening somewhere else. Then a thread for interacting. That would be complicated, but doable for an experienced group. I worry that players drop groups so regularly that if one ship is 2 or 3 players, that whole line will die as soon as one ghosts, then half the game is dead or we need to reformat.

I'm also wondering about the flavor. Is this intended to be more Black Sails (gritty realistic) or Pirates of the Caribbean (fun supernatural)?
 
The recruitment thread mentioned PotC and Sea of Thieves (i've never played it, so I have no idea what that atmosphere is)...
 
Some low anachronistic fantasy I should think since sheโ€™s cleared me to play a female Captain of His Majestyโ€™s Navy. Muahahahaha enter the villain!
 
Figured an antagonist would be a fun route to play. ๐Ÿ˜ See to it every man and woman who sails under a pirate flag meets but one end! A short drop and a sudden stop.
 
Sea of Thieves is low fantasy just like PotC. They have kracken, undead pirates, etc. So I imagined this to be mostly realistic with a splash of supernatural hidden about.
 
So to be clear, we are doing muskets, cannons and sabers? Or swords, bows, and ballista?
 
I gotta check and see if PotC is on Disney+, if not, I will make do with Black Sails, though I will likely watch that first anyways tbh lol
 
Okay, so I went to check out some potential face claims for my character, and this one is a strong first contender.
 
Hey all. Was considering a character based on Princess Sela. Her brother was King (I hear @LilGunner has the go ahead to play Captain of the Kings navy. My idea was that when MC gave up her title of Princess by becoming a pirate (mainly to rebel against her brother, the King) she would have taken a crew of loyal navy men with her even stealing a ship from the royal fleet. Would this be acceptable @Pastel ?

Putting aside some of the fantasy elements of the image, such as the anchor hanging from his waist (???) and the scantily clad woman just hanging around, I think this is about the closest I'm going to find to a suitable reference image for the kind of flashy pirate captain I'm intending to play for this game. https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/011/655/047/large/ares-.jpg?1530699306

Beyond that I'm looking to have a 44 gun roebuck class ship. It's big and beefy, moreso than a typical pirate would prefer, but my thought process being that my character prefers attacking military targets and thus wants as much firepower and durability he can muster without sacrificing speed and maneuverability completely.
 
I saw some nice fan art of Charles Vane on Pinterest if anyone was thinking that route
