‡ ¤Desperado II: Deep Seas of the Caribbean¤ ‡

During a time when pirates ruled the seas there was a ship called Oracle of the West. After winning The Battle Of the Seven Seas, they immediately stole a ship and sailed towards the Caribbean, where they encountered a chest of Aztec Gold. They spent the treasure in exchange for food, rum and prostitutes. Little did they realize that whoever stole the coins would be cursed with immortality. The curse could only be demolished when each coin was returned to the chest along with a trace of blood from each pirate who stole one.

The crew lives on. Their zombie like bodies are visible under the moonlight. Their goal is to find the person with the last coin and shed his/her blood over the treasure chest. The treasure chest is on a small island in the French West Indies. However, there are two new crews in their way of getting the coin.




Updated: The Freeform

Welcome to the second season of Desperado, Desperado II: Deep Seas of the Caribbean. This WAS a Contest-RP, but it is now a freeform RP. It is based in the mid 1600's and takes place in the Caribbean seas. This all happens after the Great Battles of the Caribbean. The Royal Galleon now controls the seas of the Caribbean, so don't mess with them!lol You are a pirate & will join one of the three Pirate crews: Oracle of the West, The Caribbean's Jewel, or The Royal Galleon. The three crews are major enemies & all three want the Golden Medallion, which The Royal Galleon now has. Each crew wants the coin for different purposes. You crew has a ship, which shares it's name with the crew itself. At this moment, 4 ships will not be needed. If there are over 35 people in this RP then a 4th ship will appear! Anyone will be welcome to join the new ship, however not everyone. On certain occassions there may be suprise occurances.

With the freeform you may travel anywhere located in the list below. The time period after (24 Hours) will be the amount of time you and your crew must WAIT before you actually arrive to the destination.

Tortuga: 24 Hours

Battles

OVER- Ignore this, all of the battles have been fought. In this contest seven battles will take place. You will encounter your enemies in 7 areas of the Caribbean, as you search for the location of the Aztec Gold. Your ship will start out with nine areas, as will the others. For a battle, you and your fellow pirates must decide where to attack the other ship (you can only attack one ship per. battle). Every crew will decide two places to attack the other ship. Each pirate will decide where he or she wants to hide on the ship (pick one of the nine areas to hide in).

Winning A Battle

The crew that kills the most pirates wins the battle, claims the sea, plus recieves a total of 2,000 golden coins for winning! Regarding the pirates they have captured, the captain must decide what to do with them. He or she must do one of the following:

Walk the Plank (eliminated them from the game)
Take them to your side (In your crew now)
Steal coins (Steal as much coins as the captain wants, and the pirates stay in their crew)



The Treasury
I said this before and I'll say it again. Pirates CAN NOT be pirates without treasure. Each crew will start off with 1500 coins. Each time you win a battle you will take 500 coins from the losing crews and receive an additional 1000 coins (2,000 in total). Having coins is a BIG ADVANTAGE because you can add more rooms to your ship, which means more places for pirates to hide. You can also buy pirates from other crews with coins. You want to buy another pirate to have more man-power on your ship. The more pirates in your crew, the better because there is a bigger chance of attacking a bonus third room.

1 - 5 Pirates in a Crew = Can Attack 1 Room
6 - 12 Pirates in a Crew = Can attack 2 Rooms
13 - 16 Pirates in a Crew = Can attack 3 Rooms
16 + Pirates in a Crew = Can attack 4 Rooms

Oracle of the West: 0 Coins/Jar of Dirt/Parrot
The Caribbean's Jewel: 0 Coins/Parrot
The Royal Galleon: 5,100 Coins/Jar of Dirt

The Black Market is in the second post.

Ye Midnite Pirate Black Market


Hello I am Zoraida Illyria. Welcome to my world-known market Ye Midnite Pirate Black Market. As you know, our market is located on a very remote island, a little south of Nassau. Our store is made for pirates only, and if you even try to steal from here I will cut out your brains! We sell illegal items such as potions and pirates, but we can also build you another room on your ship and we can even build you a new one. There are many items up for sale that can help you on a voyage also. Captains can purchase an item any day or time! No refunds! Prices can change.


This sim was created by Zora.

Items/Services in the Market

Regular Room
Add a useful room to your ship for only 2000 coins. It will only take 24 hours to add on to your ship, and we will handle the labor.
Sturdy Room
Aye, the sturdy room. These rooms are very small, but very sturdy. They cost 4000 more coins than the regular room, but they are so tough a cannon can't even break it's walls! Three people can fit in them at a time, but they will be 100% safe in battles. Only one sturdy room per a ship!

Cost of a Pirate
Buy a pirate from any crew for 2000 coins. The more pirates you have, the more times you get to attack.
Pirates for sale
o1.Angelique Gustofe/blah-blah-blah (PM)


The Re-birth Potion
Force this potion down one of the dead bodies on your ship, and he or she will be immediately revived.

Parrot
We train our parrots to spy! They can fly into one of your enemy's room and see if there are pirates hiding in the area! Plus, they are potty trained (Oh what a delight!) One parrot per crew.

Jar of Dirt
Put this jar of dirt in one of your original 9 rooms. When an enemy crew attacks this room, the dirt will be released and morph into souls of the dead and counter attack your enemy.

New Ships
Buy a new ship built by us.

Thank you chestnut- It originally was a contest, but I added lots of RPing elements to it (POTC plot).

Infernal you can join any crew! However, if it's a unhuman then join Oracle.

Oracle of the West ppls have to have unhuman skin (Unless decedent from a previous OTW). The other crews must have human skin.

Once there are nine people in your crew the nine of you will vote for a captain. The captain basically confirms the battle strategies and such.

El Dragon learned of his leap through time, and soon began to acustom himself to this new settings. However, his wit and desires were still about him, and his mind raced. Sir Francis Drake, terror on the seas, was alive again, and this time, very very vengeful. He sooned crewed up in The Royal Galleon

DESIRED CREW
The Caribbean's Jewell

SHORT BIOGRAPHY
The captain, who is now dead, had a one night stand with a Cuban native in the port of Havana. This resulted in the young Cuban becoming pregnant. Deciding to take aboard this lady they now knew as Guadolipa, they realised they had made a fateful decision soon after Guadolipa had Cecelia. Guadolipa proceeded to steal jewellery that was priceless, and escaped into the port of Mexicali never to be seen again. The captain raised Cecelia, until Christmas night, exactly five years to the day Guadolipa left, when the captain was stabbed to death in a pub in Havana.

Eeee! I want to play!

Name: Evelynn LaSalle
Age: 19
Job: (not sure yet)
AIM: [email protected] (because somehow, it works like that)
Bio: Evelynn is the daughter of Captain Leota LaSalle, former Captain of the Oracle of the West. When she was young, her mother tried to go back to land and raise her "properly", but Evelynn never felt quite at home anywhere other than on the Oracle of the West. Within their first year of living on land, Leota was discovered and recognized as being a former pirate. She was able to evade the law for another year, but Leota LaSalle can never fully disappear. She was eventually captured and sentenced to hanging.
Now, Evelynn is determined to get back on the Oracle. She hopes to carry on her mother's legacy and someday be captain.
About Ev's Personality!
Ev is the mean, strict, disciplinarian type. Or, at least, she tries to be. She gets nervous easily and she's prone to stress. Rum helps with that. She never yells. She might raise her voice a bit, or speak sternly, but she wont scream at anyone out of anger.
Never call her Evelynn. She has a special punishment for anyone who does. Her crew should call her Captain LaSalle (or Cap'n Sally if everyone's drunk enough).
Ev wants so much to be like her mother. Problem is, she didn't know her mother very well. The side of her mother that she saw was the strong, responsible woman who had all the answers, so she tries to act like that. But it doesn't suit her.
Fears: Failure, Drinking too much and passing out, Monkeys, Cannibals
(btw, Ev is not a sexual character. Love, sex and romance in general are all parts of life she's chosen to ignore.)

(please excuse this headshot, my computer wont let me take good pictures anymore. It's not that I don't know how!)
