Character information;
You have a few choices as far as characters, so choose one or two. You can have a maximum of two characters in the play. They must be diverse from other characters. Character choices are; Pirate/captain, treasure hunter, noble, military, mermaid/man or tribal member. These can be male or female, but need to choose a side; good, evil or neutral.

Here are the other characters so far;
None yet

Story basics;
• The year is 1600. Your characters should dress appropriately.
• Electricity has not been invented, so lantern, candle light and fire light only.
• The only places inhabited by people in our story, are port towns (on a beach/at the ocean)
and islands, most of which are inhabited by hostile tribes.
• Women are considered bad luck on a ship.
• Mermaids are something only sailors believe in, yet have not seen.
• Legends and myths apply; the kracken, Davy Jones, etc.

Rules;
1. Follow Mene's rules and TOS.
2. You must add an anime photo and short description of your character at the top of your entry post, including but not limited to: age, eye color, hair color and length, skin color, height, body type, general personality description and sexuality.
3. Make your character diverse. No two characters with the same personality/abilities, etc.
4. You must post a paragraph when replying, so that others have something to work with in response. Use periods and punctuation. Nobody is perfect but this is not a text message. If people can't understand your posts, or you aren't paying attention to the story/other posts, I will remove you from the play.
5. No Godmodding. p o p p e t ♥ is the ruler and moderator here. While I am not joining the play, I am who you need to talk to when you have questions or complaints.

Last but not least;
You are making your OWN story/ies. I am not writing a story for you. I will not create situations or OC's for you. I've created this and many other plays like this throughout the role-playing forum to get people more involved and to give them more opportunity to try out characters in different settings, as well as give new members something to join. I am simply the creator and moderator.

If you want to plan a story together, and talk to one another, you can do so in the OOC for the play. If you have any questions or suggestions or would like me to make the first introductory post to set the mood for you, ping me to the OOC.

Myla Aqualla

Myla has brown eyes, pale ivory skin, long light brown hair, and she's a mermaid. Her tail is light blue, and she wears a ring that allows her to transform into a human and walk the islands freely. In her human form, she stands at 5'6" and has a slender, more boyish figure. She has the ability to manipulate water at her will, and lure sailors to their deaths with her beautiful singing voice. She is 18 years old and she's a mischievous girl in sea and on land who likes shiny things. She's a jokester and loves to laugh all the time, even in serious situations. Myla is bisexual.

The great blinding sun of mid-summer was rising over Myla's ocean home, and the waters were glowing a beautiful blue. Sea life was bustling, and Myla was swimming lazily over a patch of corals, when something caught her eye overhead. Light brown eyes blinked owlishly at the form in the distance as it neared, slicing through the water without a sound.

It was a pirate ship! Myla's heart raced with excitement, and she swam towards it until she was swimming along side the great wooden vessel. Eventually the ship slowed, and a heavy anchor splashed into the water, narrowly missing the young mermaid. She popped her head above the surface of the water curiously.
