Alright, I'm pretty new to story-booking, so bear with me here.

Plot:
This story is in the 16th - 17th century, around the golden age of pirates. Feel free to use flashforwards and flashbacks when ever you wish to. Your character or characters must be related with pirates in some way, shape or form, for the story centers around a pirate crew. You can be a witty hostage, the disabled cook, or the bossy captain that nobody really likes. Whatever you want, really.

Rules:
Alright. No magic, no matter how much you want to. You can't be some sort of god or anything, and make sure your character has some flaws. You can only have up to two characters - so yeah.

And try, try try to use the olde ye tongue or whatever. I'm horrible at that language.

Follow my lead with the profiles.

Name: Amber
Age: 16
Height: 5 - 7
Weight: Slim
Nationality: English
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Role: lower pirate, wench. Fights in battles from time to time but usually stays in the cabins and cleans.
Other: She used to be the daughter of a highly-respected, wealthy count, so she's used to better treatment. She was taken as a hostage and luckily wasn't raped and killed after her father didn't pay it. She tries to have as many friends as possible, so she forces herself to be nice.

Er - and note, like a couple hours after I posted this I discovered there is already a pirate storybook... so don't think I copied them, heh heh heh. I'm writing a novel on pirates, so that's sort of how I got inspired...



Amber glared at the dirty floor, dropping the head of a mop into a sopping wet bucket teeming with water. She lifted the mop out of the bucket and slid the mop back and forth, giving the floor a sloppy sheen.

A knock suddenly emanated from the cabin door, causing her to whip her head around towards the entrance. "Yes?"

Colt walked in and looked at Amber and frowned. "I thought you were supposed to have today off and that hostage was supposed to be doing your work." He said crossing his arms. His build filled the door frame as he looked at her. He grabbed the mop from her hands and tossed it on the floor grabbing hold of her arm and leading her towards were the hostage would be. 'your to instruct her, NOT do her work."

~ Amber

"Colt." Amber stammered, glancing over at Kelna hastily. "Right, right." She told him, not wanting to go against his orders. She bent over and picked the sopping mop off the floor, placing it back in the bucket. For a quick moment she admired his muscular frame before rushing out of the room.

Tim looked at the other hostage, she had black hair, but was slightly pale, American?

She looked towards Tim, "Huh?"

***Wow, lots of guys. :P Billy, Velna is supposed to be mopping the rooms now. We'll see though. Oh and us Americano :P aren't pale***


Velna---

"How are you going to barter me out in the middle of the sea?" She growled.

Colt---

Colt shook his head and stepped back up to where the hostages were. He looked then over. Both capable of doing the work for Amber. He looked over at the girl his dad kept on the ship incase they didn't have any hostages.

"All three of you need to do what Amber says, if you miss behave you'll regret it."

*Just for the record, I'm sorry if I called you pale, but if you were egyptian, americans would look pale in comparison, sorry ^^ Oops, forgot you were mopping. OH YEAH, TIM IS A GIRL, BUT NO ONE ELSE IS MEANT TO KNOW THAT AND THEY TREAT HER LIKE A GUY!, okay?*

TIM


"Not out of the sea, out of this hostage zone? You know they could treat us to some fineries, like . . say bedding, perhaps?" Tim growled at the question.

"So you think you're worth anything?"

"Cause I'm one heck of an endorser, (sorry if that's not old enough ^^) I can get you a couple of things as long as you're worth something, are you maybe a captain's pros . . mistress?"

The girl look back at Tim green eyes ablaze.

Velna----

Velna was mad now. "NO!" She was ready to hurt this guy. "I'm not a prostitute, mistress, or whatever elese your going to say. I don't think I'm any worth, my dad is just a captain. Least last I knew he was. Now, suggest one more rude thing and I'll kill you myself!" Just then the captain's son walked in and looked them over.

"All three of you need to do what Amber says, if you miss behave you'll regret it." He said in a deep voice. She just glared at him.

I came out from the lower deck to find Colt giving orders. I sauntered up to him.
"Got anything for me to do?" I asked. I was getting a bit bored. I had gone down to see if the cook needed any help but she hadn't. Colt looked at me a minute in thought.

Amber ~

Amber swung her head around, examining the two hostages that were to do her work. "Velna." She called. Velna turned to look at her, and Amber shoved the mop into her hands. "Get to work." Shocked at her sudden burst of commands, Velna began to slowly dip the mop into the bucket and worked slowly.

Amber eyed Tim, who rolled her eyes and moved towards her fluidly. Glaring into Amber's eyes she awaited for her command. "What am I to do?" She asked, hostility flashing in her eyes.

The blonde wench cleared her throat, shooting Colt a glance as she did so. "Ma-make the beds, Tim." Tim glared at her. "Please."
