Lost at Sea (OOC)

Don't just look at this post something, anything.

I have two signups, but I need more

Picture it: The boat you are in sinks in shark infested waters. What will you do?
Before signing up read carefully:
1. Absolutely (_NO _GODMODDING!)
2. If for some reason your character dies (eaten by a shark, killed by another person, starvation..etc) it means he or she has died. No magical cure to bring him/her back to life. If he/she dies, thanks for playing the game and get over it.
3. Your goal is to survive, no matter what. The boat that you and the other pasengers have been on just sunk in warm waters teaming with sharks. The weather is hot, windy..the sun beats down on you..etc. And, that is just in the daytime...In the night you face bitter cold tempratures
What will you do?

Just average people on a cruise, not expecting anything to go wrong... The boat sinks in a storm, and the life boats are all that's between you and the unforgiving waters

So, sign up and try to survive!

When the rp thread starts up, Ithe boat has not sunk..yet.
Just leave stats on your character..then you can develope him/her when the rp gets started. I'll begin to slowly move into the fateful night of disaster. And this MT

Feel free to sign up!!

OOC: Interesting idea, I wonder since this its warm waters (most like the south pacific) there might be little islands right?

probably so. But we are more likely to drift in a life raft for a while untill rescue or we wash ashore someplace.

They could all land on an uncharted island and try to survive together, Kanami.

My characters are an Orthodox (think Greek Orthodox and the such) clergyman and his little sister. I thought of the idea for a clergyman character, to try this angle out.

yes we'll be starting soon. I technically didn't want to rip off "The Lost." But I could do both.

Someone killing a clergyman? Well, I don't know that. My clergyman is taking his sister out for a cruise, her parents passed away, so he is taking care of her. He's not going to wear his vestments on the cruise, but he may have something like a golden cross necklace, with the Theotokos in the middle.

Still planning things out.

How many people do you want to join, Kanami before we start?

SkillCrossbones
09-09-2006, 19:33
Yeah, but that would be confusing, having to keep track of two rafts, considering they could go anywhere
Kanami
09-09-2006, 20:14
it will just be one raft. I think I will start this up today
