SAIL WITH ME: JUNE 2024

An abbreviated version of our CR Workship! Same concept, just a lot smaller. If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.

We also include a designated toplevel for Crew Recruitment where players can make OOC ad posts for others to either join or request to join or make a crew. This is all for OOC coordination, so you'll have to figure out how it works ICly.

PLAYER INFO

Player:
Contact: Preferred means of contact

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Character
Canon: Include canon point
Armada: Paladin or Corsair

About: Briefly talk about the character. Can include background info or just stick with personality traits—whatever will be most useful to help other players learn about them! You can include a link to any character profile sheets or entries you might have, too.

PLANS

General: Any ideas or plans you'd like to do with your character? This could be short term or long term.
MANTA Board: Any plans for the MANTA Board?
Event: Any plans for the event? Topleveling? Tagging out? Specific prompts that caught your interest?

Etc.: Anything else or, you know, the usual memes. NOTE: we have an image code for players to use as it will fix the width of the image to 400px. This is so large images don't take up entire pages. If your image is smaller than that you can remove the code, otherwise please use the code.

IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, create your own toplevel and comment with each character separately to it. Include your name in the subject line. Although not specifically included, you are more than welcome to write up a greeting message along with the form!

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Darin Altway
Canon: Original Character
Armada: Corsair

About: He's your standard JRPG/Shounen protag hero except he's early on in his canon point that he doesn't know or think that he's capable of anything heroic. He's loud, boisterous, a master blacksmith, and while he presents as someone dumber than a box of hammers, he's actually pretty insightful. Boy's got layers. And by layers, I mean the soul of a demonic god of destruction tethered to his own which grants him powers he kind of hates and is actively afraid of. He's also prophesied to be the destroyer of his world, a fact that bothers him. A lot. You can fit so much trauma into this idiot. But he's genuinely a good person at heart and will often do what he can to help, even if it outs him in regards to his powers.

PLANS

General: So after the Garuda incident, Darin has been and will continue to lend his skills to rebuilding and reconstruction on Eltrut. He did battle with Garuda which left him pretty grievously wounded, but thanks to his powers, he's trucking along nicely. That said, anyone is free to and is ENCOURAGED to have seen him fight Garuda in the skies about Eltrut where he probably should have definitely died from the way she wounded him. So questioning why this idiot is up and about and doing heavy construction is something perfectly acceptable.
MANTA Board: of the quests, Darin would most be interested in STARSHIPS and GOLD & GEARS Darin can draw and make maps and would welcome company in doing so, and accessorizing is literally up his alley as a smith. He could easily be talked into LIFE IN COLOR and GET SHIRTY for funsies (the more ridiculous the better for the latter) and I'd like to throw him at THE GREAT ESCAPE.
Event: I'll likely put up a catch-all Manta board log!

Re: Darin Altway | Original Character | Corsair

[moremystyle]

Faris also got beat up pretty good by Garuda and I am totally down for him having seen someone else take her on. Honestly he'd want to ask about it on that basis alone but the fact that Darin SHOULD HAVE BLOWN UP would definitely merit a comment from him. Especially since he's also been doing construction work when he should have been recovering and it's been pretty taxing. So he will definitely bring it up during their Great Escaping (it'll go great I'M SURE)

[forgeabettertomorrow]

Oh hell yes, Faris gets to deal with Darin while they're escaping from Kraken Island. I'm sure Darin will do a terrible job keeping his powers under wraps.

I'm gonna try and get an open log up in the next couple of days. Want me to ping you about it on plurk?

[moremystyle]

That would be great, ty!!

[ramuhs]

/slowly grabs the lasso...

but we need to have another thread! Could probably do either gold & gears or the great escape

[forgeabettertomorrow]

Cid we need to talk about how you're involved with an enormous bird woman who almost killed me.

And you're right! I honestly like the idea of both of them. I'm gonna try and get a Manta board/general log up tomorrow. I can ping you if you'd like!

[ramuhs]

HAHAHAHA YES they definitely should have that conversation.

And that works for me!

[multidisciplinary]

Did we talk about what quest we were gonna have these two do? because i know we talked about them doing a quest but idr any specifics

if we didn't, gold & gears could be fun. they could potentially try to develop or improve some of those accessories. how's darin's hand at goldsmithing and jewelry making lmao

[forgeabettertomorrow]

We did not! Do you want them to be tinkerpals and work on the accessories and try and sell them? I think that's a great place for them to start talking more considering Darin's got experience with some goldsmithing.

At the very least, they could have fun designing things and Darin can try and act like he's not enjoying it.

[multidisciplinary]

Heck yeah, that would be fun! Zelda can do the engineering and darin can do the crafting. and she will be sure to thank him for cooperating with her because he's clearly just so put out by the whole thing.

[forgeabettertomorrow]

Darin is going to try and keep his interest in engineering to himself and utterly fail.

Darin's going to chew on his notebook it'll be great.

[multidisciplinary]

LMAO HE'S SO CAGEY

just admit you like engineering because its awesome

maybe zelda will even let him see the purah pad. she DOES have it with her!

[forgeabettertomorrow]

SLAMS HAND ON THE TABLE OKAY YEAH HE WON'T BE ABLE TO CONTAIN HIMSELF

She is going to catch on so hard

[multidisciplinary]

He aint subtle and she's finally ruled out brain damage as the reason he's Like This

[forgeabettertomorrow]

jokes on you brain damage is still very much on the table
