I've also sent Zeph a PM inviting him to join; if he wants to put up a sheet, I'll wait for him to sheet up and post in the IC before we embark on the journey.

I've edited by bio, adding in a little more on the history and personality sections, with Mal's permission to do so (via PM); I just wanted to make the hate he is getting/danger he is in for being a vauvalka (only from those characters who know of this, of course) more clearly existent.

Talking of, TDK, can you please respond to the PM I sent in reply :D

Hey, don't worry about it! Before we do anything, I want to hear from Zeph - it's my fault; I'd seen he had shown interest! You have plenty of time :)

Nah it's my work that is at fault. Not even time enough to scratch my butt this week!
Thanks for allowing me in, like I said in the PM; feel free to toss me in when and wherever!

Name: Tenril Gutripper

Gender: Male

Age: 285

Druchii House: Unknown.

Place of Origin: Clar Karond

Appearance: Tenril is of average height and pretty much looks like your average Druchii.
He has a large scar on the left side of his face that runs from his brow to his cheek. His left eye looks blind as it is milky white yet Tenril has retained some vision.

Personality:
Tenril is a cruel sadist that delights in other's pain; whether their hurt is inflicted physically or otherwise.
That said he can be unusually social when needs be and possesses a dark but great sense of humor. Those on his side will find in him a great and even trustworthy companion but those that are on the other side of the line best watch themselves. Back or front matters not; he will cut anyone down in plain sight from whatever angle.
He lacks the subtlety of most Druchii and will openly threathen those that stand in his way, be they commoner or highborn.
He considers poisoning or assassinating a rival to be weak and would rather engage in face to face combat...or a drinking competition where the first one to be knocked out will be used as Kraken-bait.

Background:
Tenril came from a minor Noble house that is no longer in existance. The reason why the family was wiped out yet he survived is unknown. Some whisper Malekith himself saved him from execution and others claim it was simple luck. The truth is known to Tenril only and he stays quiet about his past as if it did not exist at all.
His known past starts when he entered service aboard the black ark Tower of Blessed Dread, of the infamous Fellheart. It was there that he learned the Corsair trade. It was also there that he made new enemies. After thirty years of plunder, shipmates envious of his rise in ranks mobbed up on Tenril and tossed him overboard.
Lucky for him it was not far from Naggaroth's coast and he managed not to hit any of the rocks jutting from the water.
When the black ark returned weeks later Tenril walked up towards his fellows celebrating his demise in a harbor tavern and butchered them all in cold blood, loudly singing a rather lewd seafarer' song whilst doing so. It was this incident that earned him the name Gutripper...and a three month ban from the tavern as the clean-up afterwards had not been to the owner's liking.
He spend a few more years serving at other black arks and vessels and whilst most Druchii consider the trade of Corsair a temporary one Tenril found himself right at home.
He did not care for the wealth; Mathlann called to him and it was a call he could not resist. He made a vow to the Lord of the Deep that he would continue to dare the seas for as long as his black heart would beat.

Equipment:
Scimitar – An ornate looking weapon that is clearly not of Druchii design. It actually looks more like an Asur weapon though it has been embellished with a golden serpent wrapped around a skull at the hilt. It is obvious this detail has been added later on.
Daggers – One simple dagger stuffed in his right boot
Hadrilkar – Silver in colour, covered in ornate patterns, all of which are set around the House symbol; a five-headed hydra. It has been dulled by the retainer so that it does not shine in the light.
Sea Dragon Cloak - The cloak looks worse for wear but Tenril refuses to part with it. He calls it "Snappy" for some reason and strokes it lovingly with a big grin if others ask about it.
Armour – Simple studded leather.

Specialisation/Fighting Style:
Duelist - Tenril excels in close quarter sword fights and uses his natural agilty to his advantage. His dexterity and speed make up for his lack of strength.
Seafarer - He is home at sea.

Tenril is accepted. Consider him already on the ship when Viseryn arrives, and go from there. Welcome aboard, Zeph :thumbsup:

Yes, any attempts on Viseryn's life - should they be unsuccessful - will be punished harshly. If they are successful ... Well, Master Kourla will retake captaincy of his ship and and he has no use for the retainers. Once more would the Bloodwrack be manned solely by corsairs ... So think on it carefully ;)

And it was not really aimed at you Dread!

Just overall I have noticed that when it comes to Delf roleplay many seem to believe you can stab or cut down whoever she/he wants without anything bad coming of it. Druchii are not that hopeless O_O Just to note!

Well my character just thought about the potential stuff that could happen as it happens to a lot of young nobles. NOT making plans.
No way in hell will he attempt anything himself, on the contrary, he wants the voyage to be a success and will be on the lookout for any signs of mutiny aboard.

If Druchii would kill at random there would be no Naggaroth left.

I've edited my post anyway (as it was on the bit of the if-he-dies-I'll-take-charge-anyway side of things) to make clear this isn't what Sar'geth wants. I was badly sleep deprived yesterday, so apologize for the poor quality of my IC post.

Just to avoid confusion!

[mod]To make this fair, I will be accepting minor equipment changes until my next post, when we will be leaving Clar Karond and get onto the Sea of Malice. Can all such adjustments be PM'd to me so I know what has been changed[/mod]

After that, characters will be locked in, and any equipment must be exchanged for what is on board - mainly, corsair weapons, so cutlasses, daggers, repeater handbows, some spears, etc.

Mal, do you have to list your own crossbow bolts in the equipment if your character is using a crossbow, or does that go without saying?

That goes without saying; if you have a crossbow you most likely have the bolts as well :)

[mod]I will be advancing the roleplay tomorrow, between 7pm and 8pm (GMT). Hopefully, we'll all be posted - those who aren't will be able to catch up in their next post[/mod]

Should someone PM Ghouly and DDM with a reminder or not?

Edit: three red banners on one page! The end is nigh! :O

:whip: You shall stand to attention until Viseryn Flesh-Flayer, of the House Tagarys, commands it otherwise! :whip:

I've already PM'd then, TDK, worry not!
