RP- Kidnappings in Kanoni

[Meliva]

Alrighty time for a new RP. Going to be a 4 this time on the realism scale so going to be a fair bit of magic, and moderate exaggerations. Also going to have a new rule to help encourage those who don't have as much free time to join in.

Rules are as follows.

1. Try to keep things in character. Don't post something unrelated to the RP here. If you don't like this RP, don't complain about it here. Post a new thread or start your own RP thread if you don't like this one. I would actually be quite happy if someone posts a RP of their own so please feel free to do so.
2. You can control your characters actions-You can not control others. NPC's are fair game and anyone can control them, so long as its believable and in character. A guard for example shouldn't just up and decide to shoot an orphan for no reason-that is out of character. Anyone without a name will be considered a NPC, if you name a character but want it to be a NPC then just mention that said character is NPC in quotation marks after a post.
3. You are allowed to have multiple characters- but be reasonable. Don't flood the story with a bunch of your characters. 2 or 3 in one story is fine, anything past that is sort of pushing it unless you are really good at managing them.
4. Use Italics for actions, and try to separate things nice and neat. Also use paragraphs when needed. Quotations if for speaking out of the roleplay.
5. No editing of a post once you post it. The exception is to fix spelling mistakes or minor errors. It can be real annoying when someone posts one thing and another responds to it only to find what they responded too is now completely different.
6-Do not act on knowledge you know but your character doesn't- If for example Character A is being attacked in the tavern, and your character is in the church, you can't have your character suddenly rush to the tavern to help unless you can give a reason WHY he knows what is happening or he is rushing to the tavern.
7-if you have an objection to something, message the person directly first to resolve it.
8. The most important rule- Have fun.


Rule 9 the new rule-To slow things down a bit, 2 players can not advance the story too fast and must wait roughly a day before continuing if no third party posts. I realize that me and Jack honestly move a bit too bloody fast, and it makes others unable to keep up. So I will try to change that.

Things are not going so well in the Port of Kanoni. Recently a Large number of children and young women have gone missing. Many men have also been found killed, and there are various rumors of who is behind this. Some say it is cultists, others slavers, and a few belive it to be a beast in the distant forest, and some say it is a mixture of all 3. Regardless of who is behind it, the port citizens are terrifed,and are on high alert and have begun trying to hire folks to solve this problem. In the local tavern, an old grizzled bartender is looking to hire some folks to help. 2 women are currently sitting with him, a masked woman named Vune, and a rather mean looking young woman named Veera. They are waiting to meet with a man they were told who would be willing to help. Though the bartender is willing to hire just about anyone at this point.

[Jack Teach]

Charles Teach walks into through the door, walking with a very slight limp. He walks over to the bar and says in an extremely calm voice.

One ale please.

[Meliva]

He is quickly given a drink, as Vune nods to him

You look similar to Jack. I take it your his brother he told me about. How would you like to help me and Burt here take care of the local kidnappers? Burt is offering a fairly good reward for the job. And depending on what I may find, I might even give a few rewards.

Names Vune. The angry woman next to me is my niece Veera.

[DezNutz]

John White enters the tavern and moves to the bar

Whiskey.

[Meliva]

Burt hands him a whiskey

Here ya go. If you happen to be lookin for work I'm currently hiring folks to try to take care of our recent kidnapping problem, or if you got any info I'm paying for that too.

[Jack Teach]

Charles nods and says slightly more enthusiastically

Yes I would.

he turns to a young midshipman

Pass the word for the marines.

[Meliva]

Vune nods

Excellent. So, what happened to your leg? Could probably patch it up if you want.

She turns to John

If your willing to help with the kidnappings, I got a few things I can offer as payment as well. But it's fine if you rather stay out of it.

She looks to the door and patiently waits.

[Jack Teach]

One and a half toes lost to gangrene.

[DezNutz]

John downs the whiskey quickly and looks to the bartender.

Kidnappings? You mean all them whores being loading up at the docks or being wagoned out the plantations for entertainment?
