Name-Regina Syrav
Age-27
Gender-Female
Occupation-Musician
Bio-No one is quite sure where Regina is from-her accent is something eastern european-but she is a very talanted musician. Gifted with an incredible voice, she is a masterful pianist and now learning the flute, Regina booked her trip to get away from bothersome fans. She knows a bit of self-defence, but only from what she picks up by watching kung-fu movies. Regina is somewhat noticible becuase of her flaming red hair and extreme tallness; she is 6'4.
Inventory-Flute, watch, Aviator Sunglasses, a copy of Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon, backpack, small LED flashlight, CD Player, CDs.

Ravea, your in

Ahh this is gonna be great :), lots of talented Rp'er's getting involved...

I'll join up.

Name- Gaius Dequalum
Age- 24
Gender- Male
Occupation- Homeless man
Bio- He was suspended from high school after caught smoking marijuana on school property, and later arrested with posession of Meth, with intent to distribute. After he served 10 months in prison, he dropped out of high school and moved across Comatica. He found no work, and lived on the streets of Molvin, spending almost all the money he could find on drugs. He won a trip on the cruise by finding an unused scratch-off prize slip on the sidewalk, along with 10,000 dollars, which, again, he mostly spent on drugs. He is slightly insane, and often talks to himself.

Inventory- many old newspapers (to keep warm), 13 pounds of marijuana and various other drugs, an old suitcase, an old revolver with only 4 rounds, a dull pocketknife, a pair of scissors, two full bottles of southern comfort, overcoat, underclothes, a beanie, a book with no cover (no one knows what the book is but him), and a pocketwatch he stole on the cruise.


Since everyone had their characters as doctors, lawyers, and scientists, I thought this would be a nice change of pace. :D

Lol, mines a columbian drug lord...thats different.. ahah

So...we either have very educated people, or we have drug addicts or Lords...

Reallydrunk']Lol, mines a columbian drug lord...thats different.. ahah

OOC: Ah, yes...I love RPing clinically insane, drugged up homeless men, especially on a prehistoric island. >_>

Pretty much, but a drug lord would be very smart to do the things he does and get away with it..

I'll join up.

hehe, I like it. Your in. I think we have all we need. Some others can join , but when we get to the island it'll be officially closed.

Regina's somewhere in the middle, I think. Not incredibly educated, but has a decent amount of street smarts.
