A Pirates Life for Me

[Jedi_Khan]

I'll see if I can convince someone else to join. I think I know one or two people who wouldn't mind a nice space pirate story.

What about me?

Name: Canderous Shante

Age:24

Race: Aq'rae (Ack Ray)

Height: 7 feet

Weight: 300 lbs

Job: Mechanic and Gunner

Personality: Canderous is short tempered, possesed of Acidic wit, and quite trigger happy, but he is loyal to a fault.

Personal Appearance: Canderous has the teal skin of his people and their sheer size as well, he is well muscled and very strong, he has human like black dread-lock style hair.

Personal History: Canderous was orphaned as a child and grew up alone on his Aquatic homeworld. He learned to survive by watching predatory animals hunt and was quite talented at mimicking their movements. However when the PGC conquered his home, he was taken to a re-education camp and was forced to work with machines. Over the next few years he was taught to repair anything from an engine to a coffee machine though he perfered to work with animals. In the Camp he learned several different languages and was taught how to fight with Aq'Rae claws, and how to fire a gun.

Using the same technique that he did with wild Animals Canderous watched as the guards praticed with their weapons and became a reasonalby skilled marksman and a powerful melee combatant.

His time in the Camp as well as his time in the wild has made Canderous a very aggressive and sharp witted person who is hard to get close too.

Racial History: Aq'Rae were a rather advanced civilized people, who lived either on small tropical islands or on the bottom of massive oceans that make up most of their planet. However when the PGC arrived and decided that the mineral and freshwater rich planet looked tempting, everything went to hell. The Aq'Rae weren't a warrior people, in fact they bordered on racial pacifism, despite their sheer strength and size they were easily defeated.

Rounded up and shipped off-world to become manual labourers elsewhere, the Aq'Rae were nearly all forced from their homes. Only small nomadic bands and lone wanderers withstood the devastating exports. Including of course Canderous for alittle while.

Racial Appearance: Tall, and strong the Aq'rae had Teal or Orange skin and generally long wild hair, they swam amazingly well and could breath underwater. They have sharp venomous spines that jut from their forearms and these are strong enough to be used as weapons.

They also have powerful claws on their hands, and can easily crush many materials a human would have difficulty with. Though they are a very gentle race for the most part.

Due to their Pacifistic natures the Aq'Rae were very sensitive to other peoples emotions, though this ability is gradually fading, the Aq'Rae are still rather insightful into the emotions of other's.

What do you think??? Lemme know!

just what i was looking for, thoroughly alien, and with a history that lends itself well to piracy, your in.

Alright, Ill start the IC.

 

[cats]

All four of us are online. This is a good omen.

I am assuming we'll do like star trek... in that its a ship full of people and the away time always has the same five people... and that one guy who dies.

 

[Jedi_Khan]

Yes, indeed. But knowing Aries,...no, I won't say it; it might jinx the thread.

Eh, I like Star Wars better, as you may guess from my username and AV.

I assumed it was a fusion of a word my spell checker considers more important then dojo and William Shatner's most famous line.

And just what are you talking about?

 

[cats]

*Clears throat* "Khaaaaannnn!!!"

Also my spell checker includes phylactery and jedi but not dojo or leap.

 

[AriesWolf]

Everyone needs to relax, I am confused, and really Khan I'm not going anywhere, so long as the thread doesn't move to fast and knowone god mods and the post stay nice and clearly written, I'll be fine I case you haven't noticed most of my threads right now are waiting on OTHER people. Except this one which I must say looks promising.

Sorry, not familiar enough with Star Trek to have taken the name from it.

The only thread you have in the ORP is Dragons of Ragnos, but yes I have noticed. As for you going somewhere...we'll see. *gives a sort of "Uh-huh" look*

 

[rengadeirishman]

IC is up lads! aries, Canderous will recieve the Title of Chief Engineer and Gunnery Sergeant

 

[Jedi_Khan]

I noticed. Already working on my post. It'll be up in a little while.

 

[cats]

Eh every one leaves a thread now and then.

It's sad how I am the oldest poster in this thread, but any how I think I will include a breif totorial on my writing style.

I write in first person past tense often but expect me to slip into first person present at times. If I am not feeling lazy I will include all posts between my current post and the last post placing reactions to everything that has been done. How ever I am lazzy now at days, note the extra z, and this won't happen to often. I write out thoughts as sentences inbetween actions. I use 'single quotes' to place statments of other people and normal quotes for speaking. The main hazards with me are threads I start die before page six and I have frequent spelling and gramar errors. Also I mix up my theirs and the words then and than. If you can deal with that we're good.

I also post in OOC threads while stalling for time so I can reply to an IC thread.
Lastly I am a boy.

 

[rengadeirishman]

fabulous lads, the other aliens are just filler, cant run a piracy operation one 4 men, theyll die or live depending on the need, and will only be named when they must be.

 

[rengadeirishman]

its all good cats, long as no one god mods we should have a good time. Anyone caught godmodding will have their character brought up on charges the first time and flogged, the second time Captain Ren will put a pulse blast between their eyes.

im dead serious too, I will make a post where their character is being flogged and/or shot.

 

[cats]

Okay what is flogging.

Also the side effect of naming npcs.

[rengadeirishman]

flogged is the same as whipped. Im serious, the character will be lashed to the bulkhead and whipped in game.

Bottom line is, godmodding pisses everyone off, and as GM i reserve the right to judge on what constitutes godmodding.

 

[cats]

Well I'm boned.

I'm waiting for a reply by the way.

 

[rengadeirishman]

and that comic made me chuckle

 

[rengadeirishman]

[cats]

It's pretty good if you know DnD 3.0 and 3.5 In particular the comic they had on the rule change.

 

[cats]

Well I want to see what some one else does and I think I'll include their post in my post. I'm being rather fickle I supose. Especaily sense I plan to sleep shortly.

 

[rengadeirishman]
