I'm excited for this to be lifted off!

Oh gosh, guys, I made a mistake!
Would anyone like to be an infiltrating character from the Kraken? If not, we can just use NPCs, but if so, just run in and throw it at the bottom of your CP and let me know here.

Also, we can have a PC first mate and bosen. First come, first serve!

Also, here is the basic outline of the plot:

Introduction posts
Sinking ship
Discovery of the damaged bowsprit (the head of the hippocampus is gone)
Stranded on the planet/survival/exploration
Finding the traitors
Defeating the traitors
Recovery of the missing bowsprit head
Fixing of the ship
Happy ending (or sad if we're in a mean mood)

I can be the medical examiner, if you like. If you trust me. I'll make a post sometime today or tomorrow since I'm only on mobile right now. So when I have access to a computer.

I'd like to be a random deckhand, but Crisis would probably pitch in wherever.
