Appearance: Isabel is tiny, hence her nickname, shortened from "Small Fry," she has short brown hair and gray eyes, she always wears a black trench coat, with black boots and a sleeveless gray shirt and gray pants, she is easily looked over, but that's BEFORE you know her.
Personality: Isabel has fiery temper, when angered, however, she's usually quite calm and fun to be around, she has a strong sense of loyalty to her friends, and she would never intentionally hurt any one of them, her fits can cause her to say terrible things, however, and so you have to be ready to steel yourself against her.
Ship/Position: Cabin Girl, the Cuervo.
Background: Isabel never knew her parents and grew up in the streets, until the age of 6, when she stowed away on a ship and was discovered, luckily the crew was kind and let her stay and work. She started as a cook's assistant, and then started to work for the captain. She was 10 when the Cuervo attacked her ship and took her aboard.
Dislikes: needless violence (not that she doesn't like fighting), disloyalty, drunk men, people who call her short, new people, the Bodlina.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Very good at hand-to-hand combat, also with a bow, her temper can get her into trouble, as can her loyalty to friends, she's very clever and can manage to worm out of many situations.
Other: Up for love.

Charrie Profile: Name: Juana Lopez Age: 19 (20th birthday in a week)
Ship/Position: Cuervo/... Don't really know enough about ships... Sorry. General-hands-around-will-do-whatever-is-not-already-done?
Appearance: Juana is from the New World, and castizo, or three quarters Spanish, one quarter Native American. Thus, she has quite dark hair, a strong nose, dark (almost black) eyes, and dark skin. However, she tries to keep that bloody hair (a beautiful thing in its own right) short, otherwise it just gets in the way, wears all red (if blood gets on it, nobody notices), and basically has the 'are you looking at me?' look. Personality: Juana is argumentative, but knows when to keep her mouth shut. Her limits of what she would not do for a) approval from the captain or b) lots of money, probably lie around 'eating a baby' or 'hanging, drawing, and quartering a best, innocent friend'. So she has no qualms against butchering a bunch of rich folk and stealing their jewelry.
Background: Juana, at seven, decided, 'to hell with this lot' and abandoned her parent's plantation for a much more interesting life out there. Soon, she realized that she needed money, so she started to hang around pickpockets on ports. After learning how to pinch a rich man's purse without his noticing, she then learned the best method of fighting; dirty. And so, at the age of twelve, already a feared name in the port, she decided to go for piracy, and, after learning how to swim, signed up on a ship. The ship sunk with nine survivors, including her. Thankfully, they were near a port anyway, so she swam back to shore, signing up on the next ship. After she'd made a decent amount of cash out of that, she enlisted on the Cuervo at age fifteen. (Somewhere along the way, she learned English; she speaks with a British accent, which mystifies people, since, heck, she's from the New World, with Spanish/half-Spanish parents.)
Strengths: doesn't mind getting her hands dirty (handy with a dagger, or whatever comes to hand, really), will do anything for approval, quite loyal.
Weaknesses: certain things she won't do, a tendency to start fights with the crew.
Likes: money, approval, tequila, people she knows.
Dislikes: those hoity-toity rich people, idiots, people who are threatening her approval rank, gin.
Other: Up for love. And friendship. And MONEY.
This guy is so evil you could put him in between two slices of bread and call him an evil sandwich.
**OK. I will make a bodlina character, but was just thinking of making a twin for Cullum... I think it would be better if her twin was on the Curveo?**
Appearance Short, wears short dark clothes - not feminine attire. Great curves, and very beautiful - not modest. Long black hair, about two inches below her shoulders, she keeps it tied with a peice of rope she found lying on the deck. Alot like this; (But not so gothic).
Personality Rough, and not afraid to do and say what she wants. Very good fighter - believes she is the best on board the Bodlina. Has a few issues with authority, and often doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut. Very beautiful, and wears short 'revealing' clothing - is not embarassed about her feminine curves, and takes every opputunity to show off.
Background She was born in Russia, but her parents abondoned her when she was 6. A strange man took her in, but mistreated her. She ran away from him when she was twelve, and found her way onto the Bodlina. Has no other home apart from the sea.
Strengths She is a very good fighter, especially for her age. She can use any weapon, but favours small knives and daggers. Is not afraid to get her hands dirty - on deck and in a fight, will not back down easily.
Weaknesses She has little respect for others, and often pushes things to far.
Likes Piracy and crime. The sea. Freedom.
Dislikes Being treated like a child, being called weak.
Ship/Position: Bodlina/Same as my last charrie really.
Appearance: He is short and scrawny, which he always feels relieved about, since, if they all resorted to cannibalism, he would be too skinny and bony for any use. His hair is short, blond, scruffy, while his eyes are a deep brown, chocolate-color. He wears normally just a shirt, pants, and an overcoat, as well as a neck-guard, in case someone tries to garrote him. Personality: Paranoid around people he doesn't know/is not sure about. In dire situations, however, his 'survival mechanism' flicks on, and he is calm about the whole thing. Background: Not much; grew up near London, where he decided that, 1) they, whoever they are, are all out to get him, and 2) begging is for wimps, stealing is the only way to go. He caught onto piracy, and decided, heck, worse things happen on land. So he went around on a couple of ships, from the age of 15. Signed up on the Bodlina aged 19. Even the 3 years he spent with them don't stop his paranoia that they will eat him.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Though he's good at planning out, say, a cannon-ball so as to make the maximum of damage and the more splinters that will kill all hands on board, and muskets, he's practically useless at close-quarters, hand-to-hand. Basically carries two muskets at all times, and is the best if you want a big bang.
Likes: being scrawny, women, mechanical weaponry.
Dislikes: people giving him that look, knives, getting blood everywhere. Other: Up for love.
This guy is so evil you could put him in between two slices of bread and call him an evil sandwich.
Appearance: Long dark blond hair, bright hazel eyes, slightly tall walks around with a small trinket around her neck, perfect smile.
Personality: A normally bright and happy person, can be incredibly stubborn when she wants to be as well as curious. Hasn't quiet gotten her sea legs, and often needs to throw up over board.
Background: Grew up in a landlocked village then when to the harbor with her father on a business trip and fell in love with the ocean. After much debate with her father she took up a position on a small ship, which was led into ruin a day after leaving port. After several years of arguing with her father about going with another ship she eventually joined with the Bodlina, and has yet to earn her sea legs but is trying her best.
Strengths/ Weaknesses: Is very good at cleaning, sword fighting, and deadly accurate with a bow and arrow. She isnt very good at keeping her stomach on board or minding her own business.
Likes: the ocean, the trinket around her neck, and men
Dislikes: secrets, being denied, and throwing up
Other: Up for love, and will protect her trinket at any cost.
