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.

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Nimona
Canon: Post-Ballister betrayal (also I always feel weird putting Nimona | Nimona for character | canon)
Armada: Paladin (Avalanche Crew)

About: She is a 1,000-year-old shape-shifter who never talks about how she really acquired these abilities. Never fit in with other animals, had one human friend who eventually turned on her. Spent a thousand years doing ???. Turns up in a "futuristic" Kingdom, befriends a guy who was set up to murder the queen. Gets betrayed by him too. Nimona is a wild "child", she enjoys metal music, cooking, and generally being a little gremlin. Her goal is to get friends and be accepted for who she is - and what she is. Opt-in for potential facetwin shenanigans.

PLANS

General:

I want Nimona to get dragonnapped. Only for her to turn around as a dragon and then dragonnap someone else for fun. This is open to ANYONE: because she is a mischievous little gremlin who would snatch up a random stranger. If I have multiple takers, that's fine too.

Dragon riding: is she the dragon, is she the rider? Why not both?!

Nimona will be living for the Corsair-style festival, so please come at me if you want her to prank your character.

MANTA Board:

SPELLING ME SOFTLY: Let her turn people into sheep or give them sheepy appendages.

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE GNOME: Nimona will find this one hilarious and will laugh at people, or even help the gnomes end up in the oddest of places. The only one she'd help get rid of is Reagnomper.

PART OF THEIR WORLD: Want a picture of a mermaid but can't find one? Look no further. Nimona will change half of her body into that of a fish and pose for pictures!

MYSTERY OF THE FIRE HORSE: Nimona wants to help free the horse! Send it back to where it came from.
Event: Gonna be making an open log post for things, will probably do a few prompts top-level for the event. For the dragonnapping of other people.

Etc.:

Crew: The Raiders of the Lost Arts
About: Our Blurb:
Magic, Science, and all-the-ways-they-mix Research Team! There are a lot of forgotten relics, forsaken lands, and forbidden arts lost to the waves and time. The Raiders of the Lost Arts are dedicated to finding, researching, and potentially utilizing whatever they can find. Legal methods of acquiring information and research materials may or may not be followed.

Pitch: The Phantom Moon has started to explore the world away from the Leviathans to make new discoveries, further their own research projects, and generally be a nuisance to the wildlife of whatever islands they encounter. As such, there will be regular crew logs every couple-three months to cover the span of time they are out to sea.

The current crew log is here.
Friends and potential recruits are welcome to hop on over if they can get a current crew member to bring them back with them via a Ring of Returning. ~~Or attempt to sneak aboard in the case of Toge's boyfriend.~~ This can be handwaved.

We have two requirements:
1.) Characters speak to and/or know someone already on the crew. This only means that there is an IC chain of how a character got introduced to the crew. It can be handwaved with agreements between players.
2.) Characters have and/or acquire a ring of returning within the first month or so of joining so that they can hop between the ship and the leviathans as needed.

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Demyx
Canon: End of Kingdom Hearts 3
Armada: Corsair

About: He's a guy who worked for bad people and literally betrayed them and helped burn them down. He's a Nobody, but more importantly, he's a musician. He's mostly been out here traveling the world to his not-heart's content. He's a mysterious guy with water powers. That's all anyone really needs to know. (He does have an info page though)

PLANS

General: Demyx is still crew shopping if anyone wants him aboard!

He's open to being kidnapped by a dragon, maybe he can make a dragon friend. He's also ready to find some treasure - and take part in feasts.

I'm open to a romantic liason with someone if anyone's interested.

MANTA Board: APPLE FOR AN EYE: He's not a great shot, but hopefully he'll get a gun. That sounds fun.
PART OF THEIR WORLD: He's willing to assist for the music box.
SHE SEWS LOVELY: He's planning on sneaking in and claiming he's a Paladin in an effort to get a free outfit. Arm twisted, he'd pay for it.
ZOMBIRE MERMAIDS: Demyx is willing to assist with a bounty in an effort to keep coin in his pocket.

Event: Demyx will be tagging around this time around.

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Dongfang Qingcang
Canon: Episode 13, after fight with Changheng and before learning about Xunfeng's attempted coup
Armada: Corsair
Crew Recruitment | Crew Info Page

About: App | Series and Character Reference | Permissions

A 38,000+ god, in-canon equivalent of the King of Hell, and literally the most powerful being in his universe, he's got an ego that is well earned but not to the benefit of society. Daqiang has spent the majority of his life devoid of emotions and through in-canon shenanigans has started to regain them. Leaving him to currently have something of a hot and cold personality wrapped around a highly intelligent scholar who is curious about the world and slowly, very slowly, learning to be a person instead of the tool and weapon of his people that he has thought of himself as for so long.

PLANS

General: Gonna take it a little easy this month, but Daqiang is cursed by the sleeping curse and he's been trying to figure out a counter-curse ritual for that - only his attempts haven't been working because he made the wrong (though not obviously so, considering the amount of information about sleeping curses found on Avaleci and that the curse started shortly after the leviathan's arrival there) connection between the curse and the fire horse. So his rituals have basically been targeting the wrong thing. He will be involved in the fire horse rituals, the sleeping curse breaking, and once he's healed from the curse, enjoying some time on dragon island. Maybe he'll let himself be kidnapped for the novelty of it.
MANTA Board:
General
Harvesting Moonlight - Daqiang will be interested in obtaining some moondrakes
Paladin
High Above Me, She Sews Lovely - Daqiang is willing to accompany a paladin he is on good terms with for a fitting. He will not attempt to steal anything.
Corsair
Price of Freedom - Daqiang is going for the kill
Apple for an Eye - Daqiang is very willing to shoot at people and learn how to use a gun in the process.
Who Let the Dogs Out - Daqaing has now taken part in a few corsair heists and is more than willing to give this one a shot, too. It sounds like a fun challenge.

Event: Daqiang will consider letting himself get kidnapped just for the novelty of it. But he's going to be out and around the festival at large once the Phantom Moon docks back at Nogard.

Etc.:Daqiang's girlfriend will be on the test-drive this round!

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Kaveh
Canon: Genshin Impact Patch 3.8, post Kaveh's hangout (The First Ideal)
Armada: Paladin

About: Do you want to make friends with an extremely social but deeply awkward man? Would you like a pocket alcoholic? Do you want someone to get EXTREMELY nerdy about art and architecture with you? Are you in need of a human grenade dispenser? Kaveh's your man!

PLANS

General: In the short term, Kaveh is still constantly seeking out friends to fill the void in his life that is not having any actual work to do. While this will be partially solved whenever the hideaway gets an island base for him to design, he's never going to be satisfied for long. Long term, Kaveh may start a small school for basic mathematics and art classes, sensing a bit of a lack on Eltrut and also lowkey going stir crazy.

MANTA Board: Kaveh is interested in SEVERAL of the quests and will have a catch-all log later this week! There will also be a housewarming log invaded by the gnomes--any of Kaveh (or Alhaitham's) cr can attend, or be invited as a plus one. An associated shellphone post is here and frankly if you ask for an invite he'll give you one to spite alhaitham.

As far as other quests go, he will be involved with Spelling Me Softly, the Barrier Stress Test, Beauty Banditry, and She Sews Lovely. He may also be involved in hunting the Lore Accurate Jellyfish and possibly taking pictures of mermaids!
Event: Kaveh is 110% going to be kidnapped by dragons. He'd like to look at the castle but.

Dragons.

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Misaki Yamazaki
Canon: Original - Post Campaign
Armada: Corsair

About: Misaki is a horrible gremlin cat lady who is so much of an asshole she sometimes wraps back around to being nice to people. She is also deeply curious and wants to snoop around in your business. Yes, yours.

PLANS

General: Misaki is still settling in! I would like for her to get some more CR with the Raiders crew, and perhaps branch out into some more people to harrass, but for now she is treating this like a vacation.
MANTA Board: Misaki will be deeply involved in trying to solve the sleeping curse, attempting various methods of summoning the demons because summoning demons and gratuitous violence are the solution to 90% of supernatural problems she's pretty sure. ADDITIONALLY, she will return to the volcano to try and deal with the horse, tho less because it will explode the island and more because she wants to know the nature of what was done to the poor thing.

Other manta board quests she is interested in are an Apple for an eye, with a vague interest in harvesting moonlight and spelling me softly. She will be interested in aiding the hunt for the slaver in the Price of Freedom, but has no strong feelings about dealing the killing blow as long as the man does in fact get dead.

Event: Misaki will probably not toplevel but she is quite curious about the dragons...and the ruins they're nesting in.

Etc.:like, you know, nya.

Come hang out with Nimona and the dragons, Dongfang!

~~Also flower gf is going to get a fairy fire dress bc how could she not? It's practically in the name that it suits her. Come make faces at her modeling. What kind of faces? Yes.~~

If nimona is kinapping people, she can kidnap him. otherwise, they can be kidnapped to the same place. huhuhu

~~flower gf getting pretty clothes just as she deserves~~

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Dion Lesage
Canon: Prior to Ultima battle - Final Fantasy XVI
Armada: Paladin

About: Straight-laced and rigid, Dion is practically the perfect example of a Paladin - with a strong sense of justice. He's also the Dominant of Bahamut, not that he has advertised that too much. Although the consequences are less on him here, he hasn't primed very much. The greater details can be found here.

PLANS

General: Dion will be living his best life on dragon island, although it's entirely possible he will catch too much affectionate attention from the dragons.

He is not likely to be captured, but he could definitely rescue anyone in that situation.

Outside of that, he'll be having a lovely time with Joshua.

MANTA Board: SPELLING ME SOFTLY: He'll gladly polymorph willing volunteers.
MAGITEK BARRIER STRESSANT: He can try smash his way through this thing. It will be fun.
SHE SEWS LOVELY: He will gladly accept a new outfit! This is going to be very exciting, what will it be like?
LORE ACCURATE JELLYFISH: Do they need more dubloons? He doesn't, but someone might. He's always willing to lend a hand.

Event: He'll probably be tagging around, I think. He might have his own MANTA board post though.

Etc.:

Tbh, she absolutely would kidnap him like "hang on, we're going flying and gonna live among dragons".

~~She must have a small collection of pretty dresses.~~

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Toge Inumaki
Canon: Jujutsu Kaisen pre-Shibuya
Armada: Corsair

About: A quiet, soft spoken young man who has been busy getting himself a boyfriend and hanging out on a crew. He's very kind, he likes cooking and gardening, although he's only really doing the former these days. He has the power of cursed speech, and he has an ice-based tattoo. He also has an info sheet.

PLANS

General: Toge's having a great time in general meeting new people and just living his best life. He's out exploring the world.

Dragons seem very cool. As are stuffing his face that sounds like a thing he's gonna do. He wants to go treasure hunting.

I'm open to him getting captured to be rescued if anyone wants to give that a go. (No one's gonna buy this when he can just put dragons to sleep but you know, they can play)

MANTA Board: Any plans for the MANTA Board? SPELLING ME SOFTLY: Polymorph him into a sheep!!
HARVESTING MOONLIGHT: He does love his food rewards.
APPLE FOR AN EYE: He wants to get a gun. That seems like a terrible idea, but...
THE PRICE OF FREEDOM: He will be going after this man with all he's got, to get that gauntlet.
WHO LET THE DOGS OUT: He'll just put the dogs to sleep and walk right in. Who wants to go pillaging? (And end up with some interesting schematics, hm, curious what he'll do with those)
LORE ACCURATE JELLYFISH: He wants to go hunting, he's gonna be so bounty-rich. Daqiang wants eye jelly, so he might as well help out. He wants the reward.
ZOMBIRE MERMAIDS: Coincidentally, his confidence could shrink here because he is particularly vulnerable to voice based attacks. He could find himself in some trouble.

Event: He's definitely getting a top level, but he'll tag around too.

Etc.:

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Roxas
Canon: Kingdom Hearts; Post-KH3
Armada: Paladin

About: Roxas is the Nobody of series protagonist Sora. Or former Nobody, it gets a bit weird. Regardless, he's recently gained a body of his own and was all set to start living his life properly as a normal kid and ended up here instead. He's a little less than thrilled at having his plans messed with but you do what you gotta, even if that means dealing with seasickness and the big scary ocean.

Roxas himself is a pretty easy going kid. He's very much a teenager and doesn't trust super easily. He's fairly cautious, unless you manage to rile his temper up. But it's also pretty easy to break through that veneer and reveal the good kid underneath.

PLANS

General: I have no solid plans for Roxas but he definitely should get out and explore more so there might be a focus on that. He's got a whole world for that after all.

MANTA Board: The Moondrakes and the High Above Me She Sews Lovely quests look interesting!

Event: Roxas will probably have a top-level. He'll be a bit awkward, being a Paladin during a Corsair-centered event, but he might be interested in some games and the dragon riding. Might also have him being one of the kidnapped individuals

Etc.: February don't blow this for us.

Player: Laena
Character(s):

Crew list:

Cidolfus Telamon
Clive Rosfield
Joshua Rosfield
Jill Warrick
Dion Lesage
Benedikta Harman
Kaveh
Alhaitham
Eizen
Sorey

Crew: The Hideaway
About: Currently the Hideaway's purpose is a bit "loose," taking more of a independent, free to do what you want direction. Taking the odd jobs, helping others, and just living a more "free adventure life" of the Corsairs, even acting something like "Robin Hood" with their actions. However, although the Hideaway is on the "nicer" side of the Corsair group, they still behave and act more like outlaws, willing to bend and break the rules if needed.

Pitch: Cid is also interested in looking into finding the relic responsible for the rifts, so if there's anyone who wants to potentially stay in Escordvi longterm, this is the group for you! If you just want to have fun and have six powerful Dominants behind your back, also the group for you! We're pretty loose ~~with me behind the wheel~~ and Cid himself tends to look at people for their talents (especially tech savvy!) and need for a place. So yeah a fun, comfy "found family" type of group. Cid is also running a "magitech" type business so, those interested in inventing and engineering are also welcome.

Even though they are Corsair affiliated, Paladins are welcome! The crew will be working on obtaining their own little island base to help facilitate travel and lodging for both groups.

Please allow Nimona how to show him how to have a good time at a Corsair-centered event. They can stick to the lighter side of things, like looking for treasure. Or.... Nimona could playfully kidnap him for the dragonnapping portion.

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Alhaitham
Canon: Genshin Impact, Patch 3.8 (After Kaveh's Hangout 'The First Ideal')
Armada: Paladin

About: Kaveh's reticent roommate. Would rather read a book all day than actually go out and do things. Is, in fact, only doing things because either it A) interests him or B) allows him to do something which will annoy Kaveh, like getting the most awesome house decorations. Will most likely not bother with you unless you are an earnest teenager or knows Kaveh enough to bring him up in conversation.

PLANS

General: Nothing too specific but Alhaitham does very much need friends that are not Kaveh lmfao. He just takes forever to really see anyone as a friend but people are always free to try and poke him. At the very least he has learned not to bite back unless you really go out of your way to annoy him.

But also probably at some point it would be fun for people to begin latching onto the fact that Kaveh's feelings for Alhaitham are very much not one sided. He's just somewhat better at not letting it show ~~for now~~.

MANTA Board:

SPELLING ME SOFTLY: Will be interested primarily as a means to better understand the magic of this world, so expect him to pop up here.

HARVESTING MOONLIGHT: Easy job so he is very much there, lmao.

THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE GNOME: Some of them will be invading the housewarming log that will be going up over the weekend! A shellphone post about said housewarming is here. Initial invites will be primarily for Kaveh's CR, they are also free to bring a plus one for the occasion. ~~I would include Alhaitham's CR is basically a subset of Kaveh's anyway LMAO~~. Other than that Alhaitham is free to pop up for other people and be their Gnome Whisperer (TM).

MAGITEK BARRIER STRESSTEST: Will most likely be there with Kaveh and skulk about. Please let Clover and I know if you desire a three way thread with them because I want more of those :D :D :D

LORE ACCURATE JELLYFISH: Will be hunting one or two to help out with the ones afflicted by the sleeping curse, so feel free to tag along with him~

Event: Alhaitham is going to rescue his ~~princess~~ ~~boyfriend~~ ~~husband~~ roommate and will most likely need help with that. There will most likely be a toplevel for this because this is everyone's chance to see how much of a wifeman Alhaitham truly is. :D

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Mycroft Holmes
Canon: Mycroft Holmes series, start of book 3.
Armada: Paladin

About: Basic first impressions and permissions. A guy from 1873 who is currently wrapping his head around the idea of other worlds. The older brother of the more famous Holmes and no less smart than him, but liable to get tripped up in the emotions he doesn't always admit to having. Former bureaucrat, willing to throw himself into danger, exceptionally loyal, full of manners, secret romantic.

PLANS

General: Currently, Mycroft's studying magical theory in an attempt to understand the concept of magic in general and catch up to where his intelligence falls short, and I'm intending to have him dig deeper via both books but eventually decide to temporarily acquire powers to understand them more innately. Beyond that, I'd like to have him take up boxing again for a hobby, as well as find situations that can be solved with intelligence over power so he can put his brain to work, and committing himself to a crew at a point. Please give him enrichment or he's going to start theorizing on how to overhaul the banking systems.

MANTA Board:
General - I'd like to loop him into The Edge of Sleep with the research he's been doing for the Phantom Moon - perhaps finding an obscure hint or helpful account somewhere in the books he's been poring over. Also There's No Place Like Gnome because I think terrorizing him with a gnome or two is hilarious. Toying with Dear Ocean, because it will send him into a bit of a moody state but get him to open up if he starts talking about love lives.
Paladins - Definitely going to be taking advantage of She Sews Lovely and keeping the seamstress's name and location in his pocket, and trying to strike up a passing friendship there. Open to roping him into Beauty Banditry as well if someone needs a willing or unwilling partner in crime.
Beyond what's stated, if you bring me an idea, I'm happy to follow up on it!

Event: Going to do my best to have a toplevel, but if not, I'll be tagging around. The festival looks like it'll be open for a lot of fun, and though he is no Corsair, Mycroft's up for seeing how it goes. Also, the mention of dragon riding really piques my interest, and Mycroft himself will actually be quite intrigued, enough to throw himself in that ring.

Etc.:

Also relinking his deductions page, if wanted!

so maybe they should learn magic together by turning things into sheep

you know

for science

genuinely think that would horrify him as a concept

buddy can't we start smaller. like making fire and such smaller.

alhaitham also maybe doesn't know what to feel about this but he isn't going to ignore an opportunity to learn. its free magic right there!!!

plus it seems like nothing is going to be harmed anyway so why not right

you can become the sheep then

wait no he did not sign up to be the sheep--
