[ one down! one more to go! ]Powder Monkey Charles "Charlie" Fitzgerald [shades ] male | 14 (almost 15) | questioning
Physical Description: Nobody believes when he puffs out his cheeks and claims he is sixteen years old. No one. He's wholly boyish and a bit short for his age. His figure is wiry but strong, having a slight tan that spans across his body with multiple discolored freckles that litter his skin likened to uncorrelated points on a plot. Naturally wavy chocolate tresses fall around his forehead, his eyes that are equivalent to chocolate, likened to soulless pits in the shadows and reflecting the natural light like a window to the space pockets and beyond. His nose is buttoned, and the bridge of it hosts a small scar from him accidentally smashing his face against the boat while tying knots.
Personality Description: Charlie is like an appendix: you can’t figure out exactly how he works. Often described as a natural extrovert. Charlie is brimming with energy, sensation-seeking, and open and unaffected in just about everything he undertakes. He's always difficult to ignore. His strong imaginative powers and irresistible urge to seek out new paths, combined with his boldness and a tendency towards pent-up energy and curiosity for the unknown, but exercises it in the form of attempting to read books and maps (he likes the pictures and can recognize the word 'cat') and exploration. That said, Charlie takes on a more innocent and naive nature. He’s an awkward young boy, but still incredibly brilliant in his own right. He has trouble with communication and often leaves in a rush of rosy cheeks and huffs when angry. Despite his need for intellectual stimulation (lots of questions) and love of novelty, he's a good-hearted person and and deeply attracted to his family (basically the crew), desiring nothing more then their happiness and comfort (one word: hugs for days). In turn, Charlie also requires profound love and a large amount of emotional support that sometimes isn't capable from those on the high seas. He banters a lot, but apologizes afterwards; he has a tendency to be sassy and foul-mouthed, shooting back and forth with others easily and almost naturally. Tries too hard and is eager to please but often falls short of expectations.

Quartermaster
Reigns [ Gнσsτ ] Female | 30 | Heterosexual
Physical Description: At first glance, it would be difficult to pin Reigns as the quartermaster of the Vile Squid. She's rather petite, just barely reaching five-two in height. She's slim and curved, agile and swift - lending well to her skill in hand-to-hand and close combat weaponry. Her face is a mix of round and heart-shaped, mostly symmetrical - as much as a human can be, anyway, since exact symmetry is almost entirely unnatural. Her nose is straight and slightly upturned, her lips are soft and have the appearance of being full, and her eyes are almond-shaped, framed by dark lashes. Her irises are sea-colored, a blend of gray, green, and blue swirling together to create something similar to the color of the stormy seas. Soft golden-white hair drapes down Reigns' shoulders, often kept up in a tight bun or ponytail to keep it out of the way. Like most of the crew, Reigns dresses in loose fitting clothing to allow for easy movement. She has a nice pair of leather boots that she insists on keeping in good condition - touch the boots, and you loose some fingers; it's that simple. Reigns always carries at least one edged weapon on her person, but more often than not there's an almost innumerable amount of blades on her form.
Personality Description: The best word to describe Reigns is 'aloof.' Despite her objectively good looks, she seems to be wholly unaware of any sort of attention. That is, unless Reigns decides to turn her sea-colored gaze to someone. Her face is often stoic and emotionless; most of her facial expressions include the occasional raised brow, a bored look, a half-smirk - that sort of thing. Don't let Reigns' aloof attitude fool you, though; she's hyper-aware of the world around her, and catalogues almost everything she sees and hears. Her photographic memory helps with that. Although her most powerful instinct is self-preservation, Reigns is dedicated to her crew, and will kill anyone that threatens them or gets in her way. She isn't conscious-less, though. She doesn't necessary enjoy killing, but she won't hesitate if it's necessary. She's wickedly sharp, dangerously clever, and almost perfect at reading people. Her blades are almost as sharp as her tongue; Reigns' wit is rather legendary among the pirate world. All of this combined make Reigns the near perfect candidate for quartermaster; she brooks no arguments to orders, tolerates no dissension, and will suffer disrespect from no man. To cross Reigns is to meet the edge of her blades, and to dance with death itself.
Background (optional): Reigns doesn't talk about her past - ever. The only time it's mentioned is in passing conversation, such as 'I remember when this [town/port/etc] was far less crowded' or 'I've dealt with scarier men than you.' That sort of thing. Reigns was born to a rather wealthy family - a merchant whose business was involved in trade, especially of fine textiles and rare goods from the far east. Reigns was tutored in math, science, navigation, geography, and a variety of other subjects. Still, Reigns was often the problem child, as she refused to bow to the will of the men in her family - especially her father. When it came time for her to be wed to a man of her father's choosing, Reigns tried to resist and protested the union, but ultimately was out-voted. She was wed on a cool September night, but by the next morning she was gone with the wind. Something happened that night - something traumatic enough to cause Reigns to leave her rather comfortable and protected night. She doesn't talk about it - ever. No exceptions. There are rumors that Reigns isn't her real name; they're true, but her real name is known to none but her, her family, and the friends of her past. She dropped it the day she fled and joined the pirate's world, and after some time she found herself the quartermaster of the Vile Squid. She's never looked back.
