Alright. I reviewed what happened. We had four interested players. One never really engaged much and one dropped out, that left some of the roles untaken. Missing roles are:
Ships Crew:
First Mate
Chef
Chief Steward (concierge & bartender)
2nd Steward (maid)
Chief Engineer
Suggested Passenger Roles:
The scholar - the person who discovered the cryptid token and has some Implausible theories about it's origin. Could be a conspiracy theorist, a rational scientist or a student
The medic - someone with a little bit of knowledge of first aid all the way up to a doctor
I'm going to revise my preference for joining characters. In order my preference would be:
(1) Plays the scholar (optionally and medic and redshirt or 2 redshirts) - the scholar was the person who was searching for the island and would have skills relevant to uncovering the island's mysteries
(2) Plays the medic (and optionally 1 or 2 redshirts)
(3) Plays some of the crew that were swept into the sea and washed ashore
(4) Plays some other origin.
@THErolplayer - preference goes to you as you asked. I'll send you a message as well shortly.
I will also post a bump in searching for players. If a joining player joins as a passenger. I will do a handwave that they were on the raft the whole time. Their characters were just in shock from the sinking of the Cassandra and hadn't been that vocal up until now. The characters haven't been awake that long, so this is still a viable way of joining the party.
