Beni huffed from beside Becca. She laughed. "Don't worry Ben. We'll eat when Atiya gets back."

Atiya continued arguing with the jeweler. "I cannot sell for this much!" she groaned. "Many other stores would give for less-" she said, but stopped as she saw that the jeweler wasn't even paying attention. "What-"
She turned around.
A large, futuristic-looking ship, even for this future era, loomed above her. A large gash in the wall made Atiya certain that it wasn't here before. And if it wasn't here before, that meant that some universe-traveler had gotten out of control again.
Atiya sighed, leaning back on the counter. She pulled out a sword and set it to the jeweler's throat.
"People are going to be here, but before that, I'm going to leave. Even before that, I want you to give me that jewel and three others, otherwise, they'll find you under the ship." she said. She didn't mean it, but she needed the jewel.
(I have to head out for half an hour. See you then!)

"AHHHH!" Leah yelled, she jolted forwards.

(Do people have to be cat hybrids?)

(No, just me if you please, you can be a hybrid, or human, or something else.)

ok, here she is:

Cadence Blackwell
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Species: Satyr (hope this is okay)
Sexuality: whatever works for this rp
Appearance: Satyr (is this okay?) with silvery black fur on her legs and two long curly silver gazelle horns on her head. Cadence has white hair in a slightly overgrown pixie cut and heterochromatic eyes (different colored), one dark mahogany the other shocking crystal blue. Her skin is dark tan, but not quite dark brown, and she has little white markings on her forehead and cheekbones.
Clothing: She sometimes wears patterned pantaloons, but is fine going pantless (she's a satyr, remember), and usually wears baggy but stylish shirts will billowy sleeves cinched at the wrists. Cadence loves wearing decorative dangly jewelery on her 11 inch horns, and has a triple piercing and multiple cartilege piercings on both ears (she usually wears silver or opal earrings). Also, WRISTBANDS GALORE.
Personality: Extremely loyal, never backs down, headstrong, will reveal more while I write.
Position: Is First Mate on Atiya's ship okay with you, @StarrySplitdeath ?
Born on: July 5th, 1763 (but has a very modern mindset. Hates racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia with a vicious passion)

Thank you!

Connell studied the map some more. If he wanted any chance of finding this treasure and getting his crew and himself out alive, he would need more people, stronger people. The crew was meeting him tomorrow, but he wasn't sure where he would find other pirates that knew how to sail through time and space and had a crew fearless enough to travel to some of these places.

Becca had an idea. "Hey Candence!" She shouted, then stood up and went to look for her (friend?)

Rebecca vomited over the side of the ship.

(wait, is Becca on Atiya's ship?)

(Yes.)

(okay sorry, I'ma bit mixed up rn lol)

Cadence leaned against the railing of the crow's nest, sharpening one of her knives. Shoulder's tense, she focused soley on her task, gritting her teeth and trying not to remember. Stupid bandits. She growled under her breath, the tips of her horns glinting in the sunlight.

"The hell Sera? By the goddess, I swear I will quit this godforsaken job!" Leah said.

"Cadence! Where are you?" Becca called, running up to the crow's nest.

"Up here!", Cadence called out, her lilting voice frustratingly musical (a satyr thing in my 'verse) despite her obvious gruffness.

Becca smiled and popped up into the crow's nest. "Hey!" Beni flew over and perched herself on Cadence's head. She was about the size of a dove right then, so it wasn't a problem.

Cadence acknowledged Becca's presence with a tilt of her head, which was a lot for her. The adornments decorating her horns glimmered as she shifted on her hooves.

Atiya gritted her teeth as she pocketed a small number of jewels from the horrified jeweler. Not only did she need to get back to her ship before sunset, she also needed to buy Cadence, Becca, Beni, and the other crew members something to eat. They relied on her, and as captain, she would not let them down.
Of course, she didn't have any cash on her, let alone a credit card. Those things were worthless in other universes, so she played it safe with items that sparkled. Those almost always remained in style.
So she swiped some twenty dollar bills out of the cash register, murmuring a futile apology to the jeweler as she released her sword from his throat. She walked out of the store, yelling to forward the onlookers to the crash, and while people drifted towards the ship in the wall she headed towards the food court. Maybe she could buy them all some Subway.

“What is it?”, she asked Becca, sounding sharp but not meaning it. Becca was used to her ways, and didn’t find this rude.

(I'm going to be introducing another minor crew member here.)
Name: Calls himself the Revenge-Taker. Atiya calls him Milo.
Age: 14. Acts like 12.
Gender: Male
Date born: 1500 in Devon Isle. Was able to shift into a musk ox soon after birth, and lived like that until he got off his home island.
Time period living in: whenever the ship travels to
Species: Limited species of shape-shifter. Likes to spend most of his time as non-human.
Position on ship: crew. Useful for lookout and cleaning duty.
Personality: Introverted, likes to help out, optimistic, always trying to shift whenever possible, sometimes hard to find
Strengths: Good ideas, on task, committed to pirating, confidence
Flaws: Can be annoying, jealous of Atiya's captain role
Others: Sports tattoos on his body except for his face that supplements his shifting - meaning he can only shift into animals that are shown on his skin. His form as a musk ox is large on his back, and so is his form as a human.

"Do you think that I could get in the water for a bit???" Becca asked. It wasn't as much as Becca asking Cadence, but of letting her know where she would be. Often times she would disappear and everyone would be looking for her, getting all riled up when they couldn't find her.

Cadence peered over the edge of the ship, studying the waters. “I suppose.”, she grunted. “Just be careful.” She continued to sharpen her knife.
