Another 3B storybook?

Plot: You are taking a cruise. It is lovely! Everything is going as planned. You snorkel, swim and eat all you can eat. You sleep in small cabins. The maid service is splendid! And then the captain recieves horrifying images on the radar: a hurricane is coming and the ship doesn't have time to get away. The huge storm hits and the boat is sent crashing into an island. You awake. You are lost.

Rules: You know the rules.
- No god moding

- No fantasy creatures. This is a real storybook and it will only have things that could really happen in it.

- If you give up on the storybook, your character becomes NP. (non playable)

- Keep swearing to a minimum.

Name: Ryder

Age: 22

Sex: Male

Description: He is a Texan, big guy! He owns a ranch, and is used to hard work. He is a good 6'6 with a very broad chest. He is all muscle, tan skin, bright blue eyes, black hair.

Personality: Sweet, he is like a big teddy bear, he can be just as mean as a bear though too. He is more likely to jump in front of a bullet for someone then to shoot someone, but I"m sure if you angered him enough he would pull the trigger. :D

Extra Information: His mom forced him to go on the cruise, he is a single very wealthy ranch owner and she said maybe he would meet someone. He doesn't like not having his feet on the ground, but he went anyways because he needed a break. If some people fall out and he does too, he will grab as many as he can and try to swim them back in to shore. He's up for fallin in love too. :D

Just to keep this thread on top of the chart, I'm going to start my story on the ship if that's okay...

David Jackson felt the heat hit him as he went inside the sauna
" I love having a hot sweat...."
He looked up at one of the other passengers as he slumped there.
" Don't you agree Mr. Jones?"
The passenger looked up suspiculy.
" How did you know my name?"
" Because you forgot to take off your shirt which has your nametag on it."
The man looked at himself and then took the shirt off and slumped again.
" Aw, what's the matter doc? Your on a beautiful cruise ship, there's women, music, women, shuffleboard, the sun, women, high dining...You think I'm forgetting Women?"
" I'm not a doctor, I'm a writer."
" Really? You look like a doc. Your not even sweating. How is it that a man can't sweat in a suana?"
Jone's sighed.
" I'm tired, I don't need to talk to someone like you."
" Come on doc...tell me, Sauna word of honor."
Jone's looked at David and smiled.
" Ah there you go Doc, it look's nice on you."
" It's...well, My book's are taking a nose dive. And it's very stressful with my agent on my back. I thought this cruise would calm me..."
David smiled," Relax doc. All you need to do is just let it all go. Don't worry about a thing. And watch the the sea engulf your mind..."
A person's heart is like a painting.

[Brendon Jones]

Brendon sighed and said, "Yeah. That's what I hoped I would do."

Suddenly remembering, the man stuck out his hand. "My name is Jackson. David Jackson."

Brendon quitely shook his hand and smiled weakly. "Uh, how are you today?"

"I'm doing excellent. You know, on floor five there is this excellent massage..." Jackson's voice became a background rumble as Brendon tuned him out.

Now, about his book... Standfords - his agent - recommened that he should have taken this cruise... but did she really know what he was going to get into? Would she have known that he would meet many annoying tourits?
Just write -- the rest of life will follow.

Would love help on this.

Moe-

Here she was on a criuse ship in the middle of the ocean, and she hates the water. Yet her mother somehow convinced her to go with her on this death trap.

Moe was woozy and opened her balcony window. Then she hurled out the window and into the ocean." Ughhhh..." She moaned.

She whiped her mouth and walked back into the room. Moe brushed her teeth and exited her room. She needed to eat.
