stPLXNES4: Drink and the Devil

[Grandmaster]

To Captain John Silver:
From Captain Wilhelm Schwarzehand:
I have recently consulted my maps, and discovered that we two are the only cap'ns of fortune currently operating in the South Colonial Sea. As such, I propose that we make a gentleman's agreement not to interfere with each other's business so far as we can help it. I am sure that you, like myself, are a businessman and interested in making yourself a few doubloons; if we are busy fighting and killing each other, neither of us will be able to make any money, no? And besides, if our boys e'er need to sharpen their swords and their aim on live adversaries, there're always those crews working the North Colonial Sea. I hear that they're a dirty, despicable lot; not at all like us Southern entrepeneurs.

[Amenhotep7]

OOC: Man, I'm just not havin the luck, aren't I? Most jobs are just too far away!

 

[Plexus]

OOC: There'll be more next update.

 

[Plexus]

Alright, once I have orders from Amenhotep7 and aaminion00, I'll do the update.

 

[Amenhotep7]

Orders

Considering I've no jobs and not the money to build any new ships...None.

 

[Plexus]

Need to be creative, man. There are other ways to make money.

 

[aaminion00]

Orders

- Set sail for the Isles of Malfini. Take shipment of Cacao and bring it back to Abriko market. Recieve 400 doubloon profit from Mr. Staton

 

[Amenhotep7]

OOC: I look over rules, but the only way I can see how to make money would be

A) Sell my ship (Not gonna happen)
B) Become Hired by one of the admirals of nation's fleets. (Bah! I'm a pirate!)

ORDERS (Maybe I have the pirate thing down, now! )

-Steal plunder from vessels in the area
-Considering my head's at stake, I'll try to find a secret (preferably uncharted) hiding spot after the plundering.

 

[RoddyVR]

or start BEING a pirate.
rob someone. (you'd be risking your only ship ofcourse, but hey, its a WAY, lol)

UPDATE 1

The Little Babar under Captain Jack Sparrow bombarded the Colonian Natives on Pé Etranje. After the bombardment, Sparrow's Firecocks pillaged the settlement, slaughtering 250 and stealing an amount of wood and fruit. He also came away with 8 strong islander slaves. He is currently off the shoals of Wa. The Etainish Colonial Government has condemned the actions of Sparrow, who they believe was working under Fleurian orders.

The Silver under Captain John Silver under a contract with Mr. Corjin delivers a shipment of sugar to St. Blaise from Pèmèt.

The Black Eagle under Captain Schwarzehand delivered an amount of rum to Fanatique. After granting shore leave to his crew, a fight broke out between some islanders and a crewman after a crewman raped an island girl.

Little Betty under Captain Bent made his way to Iles Alèz in anticipation for a shipment of coffee beans.

Notre Voyage and The Risker pick up a large sum of gold and begin their journey to Kalmason.

Queen Anne's Revenge, in an epic pursuit of the Cronos was narrowly out maneuvered by the superior commander. +1 Intellegence for Captain Hunt. Hunt was able to deliver his cargo as well.

Tensions over the North Colonian Islands between the Fleurian and Etainish powers continue to constrict. Bringing the Colonian Sea closer to full blown warfare.

From Captain Axl W. Hunt
To Mr. McRae

Me and my trustworthy crew have just recently completed a shipment of valuable cocoa in the Abriko region and our docked in the port once again, free from any obligations. As our vessel, the Cronos, is fit to carry your shipment and are in the immediate region, we offer our services to carry your 30 slaves from Abriko to Ivè.

 

[Plexus]

Captain Hunt,

Consider it done. But be warned, the savages can be a little unruly at times.

-Mister Jonas William McRae

---

Captain Sparrow,

Your proximity to our company and the political situation between our two nations prompts me to think otherwise.

-Mister Jonas William McRae

---

Captain Schwarzehand,

Good. They were beginning to spoil.

-Mister Gillian D. Wallace

To: Mr. McRae
From: Cpt. Jack

dosnt matter to me- lets say I'm not unopposed to you choice- but remember, your sellign your goods to a Fluerian port, and it would alsway help when you have a cpatian who knows th elocal waters (considering I hail from Etain in the first place)

 

[Xen]

Savvy?

Jack looked over the seas- nothing- not a ship, not and island- freedom- he hailed from Etain- he was proud of it, despite his famillies old troubles- but he now worked in Fleuria, not somthign to be ashamed of either- of course, the word "work" was to be used openlly, more accuratelly, he and his pirate buddies lounging around on thier collective Pirate asses until they got the inclnation to go do somthing- which latelyl has been often- the first month of Jacks exile was more or less spent loungin with loose women, rum, and pipe weed- not that has changed mind you- and now he was well on his way to becomeing a notoriuos name on the high seas- after all, single handedlly he had bumpe dup the tension between two of the most powerful nations in the world, let alone the colonian sea- and he had gained some experince whikle doing- true he was trianed to be an officer in the Etainish navy, but that was to be a grand war frigate- on his small sloop, the tactics changed- but like he always had, jack adapted- and noe, he was sailign away with his plunder- though it wa sonly fruit and wood- as well as some slaves to do a little side buisness with, he was doing well for himself, his raid being a complete success, but what would coem next over the winds...
