Pirate introduction
You grunt as you slowly wake up from your slumber. You should hear your captain cry to get up and prepare the ship. Groaning, you rise to your feet and get to work. You are a pirate which meant you sailed the seas plundering and pillaging the local islands and countries. Why you became a pirate is something you chose or perhaps were forced to become one. You walk out of wherever you were staying and look around the island. The island known as the Troubled Skerry was a paradise for criminals, fugitives and pirates alike. The Royal Navy rarely ever came this way. You see your captain barking out orders and pointing to the ship. You rolled your shoulders back and do whatever he asks of you. You wonder just what today holds, perhaps you will find lost treasure, love or end up being hung at the gallows. That was the life of a pirate for ya.
Royal Navy introduction:
You lean against the railing as you wait for the Admiral to give out orders. You were one of the officers of the Royal Navy. You sailed the seas keeping the peace and arresting those who broke the law. Aside from dealing other countries, the main thing you had to worry about was pirates. Pirates were the scourge of the sea hunting innocent people, and doing whatever they pleased. Your job was to find them and bring them to justice. Easier said than done in all honestly. You straighten up as the Admiral steps out of his office. "At attention men! Batter down the hatches we have a lead on a pirate crew attacking a island not far from here. Let's shove off and bring them to justice!" You let out a yell with the others and make the necessary preparations. That's the Royal Navy life for ya

Civilian Introduction:

You pass a few wanted signs and shake your head. You didn't care much for pirates unless they were invading your city or town. You were curious to what that life was like. The life is a pirate sounded dangerous yet exciting. There was the Royal Navy to consider to. Sailing the seas and bringing the king's justice sounded just as fun. Shaking your head, you continue on your way knowing that being a normal civilian was enough for you or was it?

About:
The rp is set in a fictional world that doesn't have a name quite yet. In this current time period, pirates are in abundance and the Royal Navy is working hard to catch them. There are many undiscovered places and there are some creatures that lurk beneath the waters. Some people are even blessed with special powers but they must keep it a secret. The people fear those different from the norm and unless you are under the king's protection you are as good as dead.
Places
