(Now can everyone who hasn't done a writing sample please do one?)

((With all due respect, Blossom, this isn't your roleplay to take control of, and people have other things to do besides this specific roleplay, or even Notebook. Might want to take that into consideration when you go to tell people what to do and what should happen :) ))

First of all, @strangebird your writing is amazing and I love it, second, please let me know what role you'd like and then fill out the template. I'll repost it so you don't have to backread.

Template btw:

Age: (preferably 18 or older, and I was thinking more around the 21+ range, ish.)
Gender/Pronouns:
Sexual/Romantic Orientation:
Personality:
Motivations:
Moral Alignment: (Like, Lawful Evil, Chaotic Neutral, Neutral Good, True Neutral, etc.)

The Role on the Ship:

Thank you! I might have a sort of lookout, one that is up in the crow's nest, if that's not already taken. If not, then a general pirate will do

Lookout is fine honestly I'm just taking these roles that I was too dumb and lazy to think up and counting them as crew because I am lazy and dumb.

(by the way: I'm not going to be super active today, as I'm going to Daniel Boone's house with my family)

That's cool dude!

Sweet! I'll have my template up in a bit, then

ALSO! IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

Due to some concerns I have for content, I'm setting up a trigger warning system. Basically, you add trigger/content warnings beforehand if you're posting more troubling content, such as:

Content Warning(s): Gore, Implied/Referenced Emotional Abuse, Gaslighting, Violence, Broken Legs, etc.

And maybe a brief TL;DR like "The character jumped out of a window and dislocated their shoulder." or "A told B to barricade the doors, but then B got shot in the arm." so people are caught up with what happened but can scroll past any of the messy, more detailed posts if something upsets them. I will repost this every so often before the RP starts just so everyone knows and is on board. If anyone has suggestions for the warning system, please let me know! I just want to make sure nobody is triggered by anything mentioned here.

I like the trigger warning system thing.

Just need to wait for I think two people to post their characters and we're all good.

Name: Carsyn Song-Riley
Age: 23
Gender/Pronouns: Female, she/her
Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Demi
Personality: She's very sweet and innocent, still kind to the Caelum even though they've been cruel to her. Her hate list is non-existent and grudges don't last forever, but she never forgets anything. Very shy around people but affectionate towards people she cares about, and she's also very observant when it comes to people and the environment around her. (the following are mannerisms but they kinda lend towards her personality). Small smiles, twirls hair a lot, doesn't really hold eye-contact much, soft footsteps. She'll typically wait for an opening to interact with you, making herself known with small noises and standing in your view. However, if she really wants your attention, she kinda does a sort of hand flutter where she'll frantically tap you with both hands with a featherlight touch that's more air than touch that resembles butterflies over your skin. Will pet a friend's hair and pat their head, cheek kisses, and clings to arms like a koala. Though a very sweet girl, violent and cruel actions don't phase her anymore, and chaos was ingrained into her thanks to her new family.
Motivations: Adventure and freedom, butterflies
Moral Alignment: Chaotic Good
Appearance: This. Wide, ice blue eyes verging on grey, short dirt brown hair with a slight wave to it, and a general sense of "I could try to style it but I don't want to." Thin and slim 5'9 frame, skinny, almost unhealthily so but not quite yet. Her tongue is severed. Small nose, delicate but calloused fingers from constant labor, modestly plush lips, humble curves. Lightly tanned skin. She's got a small scar in the corner of her mouth from where the knife hit her skin. There's a blood-red brand tattooed on the back of her neck.
Worst Fear: Being enslaved again.
The Role on the Ship: Lookout
Why They Joined and How Long They've Been There: Carsyn joined about two years ago because it was a way to see the world and break free from the memories that haunt her.
Brief Backstory: Carsyn was enslaved by a wealthy merchant and went about her duties carefully. She kept her head down and did everything she was told without complaint. However, one day she witnessed an illegal black-market exchange taking place between her owner and a colleague of his. Her owner saw her and later took her for punishment. As she was illiterate and couldn't even write down her alphabet (very little education), he simply took away her only means of communicating what she witnessed instead of killing her. She was useful, so he didn't want to lose that, and the punishment served as a warning for any other snooping "attempts," even if she hadn't meant to snoop. She didn't know ASL at the time—she does now—so she had no way of communicating beyond simple sounds and vague gestures. She managed to get free thanks to a certain family of sisters and was taught sign language, as well as how to play the violin and some reading/writing, though she's still not very good at that.
Other:
Clothing: Bell bottoms, but not the jean type. She prefers the soft and stretchy materials, and none of them have loud colors or any sort of pattern. Loose shirts are a favorite. Any long sleeves are always longer than her hands so she can do paws. Knitted sweaters and leggings are also a frequent favorite, as long as the sweaters hang low around her thighs. Simple and cute dresses are also well-liked in warmer weather.
Trivia: Thunder scares her, and by extension of that, loud noises that resemble the boom of thunder scare her. She'll typically hide, if she can, when there are storms during the day. During the night, she'll try to hum to herself while hiding under blankets, but if she knows someone well, she'll go to them for comfort. All sweets are loved, so any dessert is appreciated and promptly devoured like a lady. Likes naps and pillows, and butterflies are very much adored. She has a dagger with a butterfly imprinted in the handle, a gift from her family. She doesn't like needles and tattoos thanks to the brand, and her dislike of needles prevents her from getting any piercings.

I love she! Gorgeous!
