Name: Katharine Anderson
Age: 14
Gender: female
Region: Hoeen
Personality: Katharine is an... interesting person. She would prefer to avoid the contact of other people, but isn't afraid to stand up for herself and speak her mind. She is strong-willed and quick on her feet. She is rather stubborn but is loyal to anyone she has grown attached to and will take orders as long as they don't conflict with her own personal beliefs. She is extremely intelligent and is a brilliant tactician in battle and does well under pressure. She is a bit of a feminist, however, so watch out what you say around her ;)
Appearance: Katharine is tall, about 5'8", and slender. She has long chestnut hair which she usually keeps back in a messy bun. She has piercing green eyes that stand out against her suntanned complexion. She sometimes wears dresses and other times wears the same clothing that the men do, though she is typically found wearing an outfit of her own creation. It consists of a white three-quarter-length sleeved dress with a thick leather belt resting on her hips, plainly displaying the dagger it holds. The dress only reaches down to right before her knees before disappearing into a wisp of tattered fabric. She wears black pants (or britches, if you'd rather hear that) beneath along with tall leather boots. She has an old-looking bag that she wears over one shoulder with the strap across her chest in which she holds various items. She wears a silver chain around her neck which holds a large pendent made of a large diamond with a rose pattern carefully etched into it along with small fragments of ruby and emerald set into it. Her mother gave it to her on her tenth birthday and Katharine has kept it with her ever since, though she had no idea where or how her mother had managed to get it. She either keeps it in her pocket or around her neck, though she usually tucks it into her shirt for fear that it would be stolen. Very few people know that she actually carries it.
History: Katharine grew up as the only child of her mother, who was a single parent. She owned a natural remedy shop in Hoeen and taught Katharine how to make medicines out of berries and different herbs. Katharine learned this with ease along with the ability to cook and sew. But another thing she learned was how to fight. She is rather skilled in wrestling, though she also knows how to use her knife as well. Yet another skill she learned at a young age was how to play card games. She won a Torchic in a card game and found that she had a special connection to Pokemon. She discovered a Cacnea nearby her home and left treats out for it, eventually establishing a relationship with it and taking it in.

Name: Dante Falyr

Age: 18

Gender:Male

Region: Jootto

Personality: Dante strives to be a good captain and tries to be just like his father. He tries to do everything as if he was his father. Therefore, Dante tries to know every member of his crew, as well as tries hard to earn their respect. He also doesn't really care about what other captains and people say about him, as long as he has the respect and loyalty of the crew. However, unlike his father, Dante believes that the bond between humans and Pokemon, not technology, will be the most important step for better exploring and prefers that his crew has befriended Pokemon.

Like his father, Dante is a solid judge of situations, most likely because his father was also, and often spends several seconds analyzing situations. Unlike most sailors, Dante doesn't believe in superstition or myths and legends. However, if the words 'treasure' is mentioned at all in myth, legends, superstition or in conversation, it immediately catches Dante's attention, although at first he will act like he didn't hear it. This is most likely from his upbringing, where, like most people in the colonies, his family didn't have much and Dante often dreamed about finding treasure.

Dante tries to be calm and in control during tough situations. Nonetheless, if a situation doesn't come out the way he thinks it will, he will make some rash and panicked decisions. If this happens, another member of the crew better offer tactics, or it could be the end of the ship. However, in most of these situations, luck has been on his side, and his incredible luck has gotten him out of many predicaments. This streak of luck has made many superstitious captains and sailors think that Arceus is looking after him. Dante often dismisses these sayings as myth.

Appearance: Dante has quite a stocky build, standing at 6'3''. He has short, black hair that is always in an unorganized mess. He also always wears a cloth headband around his head. When on deck, he wears his blue and black 'captains jacket' (which he leaves unbuttoned) with a plain white undershirt and a pair of normal 'commoner's pants. A strangely lax type of wear for a captain.

History: From his youth, Dante's life had been filled with seafaring and life aboard at first. Born in the colony city of Golde-rod, Dante spent most of his time around the docks, watching ships and various explorers come into the port along with his pet and friend, Rayne, a Totodile that Dante befriended when he was little. He found the small Totodile abandoned on the docks, looking for it's mother. Dante took him in and kept the Pokemon safe.

When he was 9, Dante's father, who was a captain of a small exploring vessel named Maiden Mist, decided to take Dante along on his next exploration. Unfortunately, his mother disagreed, and forbade him to take part. But such a petty thing would not deter Dante, and he his Totodile snuck out of his house in the middle of the night, stowing away on his father's ship until they set sail. Once they took off and were a distance away from port, he revealed himself. Although he expected to be greeted with surprise, he was only greeted with mundane 'Aye(s)'. His father had anticipated his move. This was quite an important lesson for Dante. It taught him to know his foe.

On his journey, Dante was able to see and explore the many places of the world, as well as learn various tips and lessons about ships and the seas. Dante traveled from place to place for 2 more years, trading exotic goods, and claiming and exploring new lands. When Dante was 11, he had learned most of 'the tips and tricks of the trade' and became an official member of his father's crew. He even received his own saber, given as a gift from his father. This fine sword was made in the Sevilli Archipelago, a place famous for making sabers.

3 more years past, and when Dante was 14, he had already moved up the ranks, becoming an important member of his father's crew. With his 15 birthday soon approaching, his Totodile soon evolved during the trip, becoming a Croconaw. Many other people of the crew had powerful Pokemon, but Dante's new Croconaw could hold it's own fairly well in battles.

On the day of Dante's 14th birthday, a terrible storm hit near the Whirl Islands, trapping the Maiden Mist in it. The wind battered the ship, sending it careening in abstract directions and slamming it against the waves. The crew battled valiantly for the ship as the hurricane-winds tore at it from all directions. All of a sudden, a rope for the mast of the ship snapped, and swiped across the deck. Dante was running to help another member of the crew when the rope hit him, sending him overboard. His Croconaw jumped over in the panic, in hopes to save Dante. Rayne was able to grab Dante before he sank, and was able to keep them afloat through the storm. Overwhelmed by the water and sheer exhaustion, Dante blacked out. However, Rayne was able to stay conscious. Eventually, they were washed up on on shore on the mainland. When Dante came to, he panicked. The ship, as well as the rest of the crew, was nowhere to be seen. There wasn't even the slightest hint of the ship ever even being in the area.

Dante, now void of a father, ship, and crew, had no way to get back to Goldenrod. Luckily for Dante, people began to hear about him being the only survivor of the ship, and offers for jobs, missions, and explorations began to appear. Dante began work for hire, hoping to eventually find out the demise of the ship. He traveled on many different ships with Croconaw, under many different captains and crews, all the while honing his skills with his saber, and making a living. During an assignment, Dante found and befriended a lonely Duskull. Eventually, a contractor caught wind of Dante's exploits and offered him a ship. Dante was at first skeptical about the man, but eventually swayed to his offer of a ship and a crew. He wants to name the ship, Mist Parter in hopes he will find his father, but is still waiting for the feedback from his crew.

Pokemon: Croconaw- Rayne- lvl 40- Is always at Dante's side, no matter what; Duskull- Dusk- lvl 32- loves to wander off and disappears and reappears randomly

Dear Sir

 I've have recently reach your request for a captain of a vessel, and your offer... intrigues me. I know word of my travels have been spread around for a while, as well as my skills with a saber and leadership. My father, Richard Falyr, was also in charge of a ship, almost the same as this one, and I have gained ample experience watching him and being a part of his crew. The experiences I have learned there will be applied . However, as you know, this be the first time I will own a ship. Therefore, it will be most appreciated if you are able to provide me with a capable crew. Unlike other captains, it would be preferred that they have Pokémon as companions. This exploration will be a complete success when I am captain.

May the winds blow your way,

Dante Falyr

Name of ship- Mist Parter

dboring: A couple of things. First, in the rules it states that there are no pokeballs, seeing as at that time of 16, it would've been the year....er......1899. Second, please just add 1-2 more sentences in personality, explaining a downside of your character. Lastly, the word Pokemon, and the names of them like Scyther, I want capitalized. I'm sorry if I'm sounding pushy, I like the character, so you're Pending.

Mira: Lol.....card games!! Well, its right on the edge so you're......Accepted! Although, if you can, will you beef up the SU a little? I'm placing you as Sail Maker on the Privateers ship, though can you please come from Hoeen, like the Privateers? If not it's fine!

Lawl, it was late so I kind of rushed it. I'll fix it soon...

dboring: Mmmmmm,....Kay! Its, better now, a few grammar mistakes, but its good. After everyone else posts around(you'll see) I'll confirm on captain!
EDIT: Sorry, forgot, Accepted!
 
wolfstrain: I liked it, but you're not necessarily captain yet......we'll see....for now, Accepted.
 
Hey king I just wanted to tell you I upped Scyths level to 36 since everyone else's is around there lol.

Name: Kai Hiro

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Region: Jottoo

Personality: Kai's past has led him to be somewhat of loner and a mystery. He generally avoids crowds and slips through unnoticed past people. Most people looking at him would think that he is cold hearted, tough, and bully because of how he looks, however, that is untrue. When he lived in his village he was sincere, honest, and kind to all who got know him. He spends most of his day making something or practicing his technique. As a blacksmith he is know for making powerful blades and forges them using his two pokemon. All three of them are skilled in japanese dance.

Appearance: Kai wears the traditional outfit of a Ronin (If you don't know what it is just think about Samurai Jack's outfit. Rather than a samurai he looked more like a Ronin...). He always wears sandals and his twin blades in their sheaths at his side. Thier names are Prometheus and Epemetheus. They got thier names because of the way he always strikes with Prometheus before Epemetheus. His black hair is in a ponytail held with two small knives and his bangs cover his left eye. He is very muscular and is well built. His movements are quiet and soundless expecially in combat. He perfers not to stand out and so he makes as little noise is possible. When he engages in any form of combat he usual is known for his graceful movements and he usually has an empty expression.

History: Kai was born in a snowy region of the Jottoo to a dancer and a blacksmith. His mother was beautiful and elegant and wished that her son would pursue a career in dance. His father, however, discouraged it and refuse to let him dance because he wanted Kai to become a blacksmith like him. One night when he was five his parents got into an arguement and Kai wittnessed his mother's murder by his father. He was too young to testify, but the murder would isolate him from his father for his whole childhood. Kai began training as a blacksmith even though he resented it, however, he also secretly would dance with a pokemon his mother befriended, it was a Froslass. At the age of nine he was to befriend a fire pokemon so he could work the forge and he befriended a Vulpix who eventually evolved into a Nintails because of a strange rock. At age twelve he heard about a group of pirates and he started planning his future. He began to practice wood-work expecially out of all of his fathers trainings. He had become an expert blacksmith at the age of fourteen and began working on large wood projects. When he was sixteen he finally intiated his revenge and killed his father. He had planned the murder since the age of twelve and planned to escape by becoming a carpenter a board a pirate ship.

(Insert name here)-san,

I am known as the heir of the blacksmith Hiro. My skills are higher than his and I specialize in wood-works. I have studied ship mechanics and am willing to offer my skills. I also can serve as an assassin or a soldier if you would need one. In fact my swordsman skills are proof of my fine artisan status. For one can not be a master of the blade if his weapon is ill-tuned. This fine accuracy and carefull skill I offer to you and I wish that you may accept me.

I who wishes to give his life to you,
Kai Hiro

Name: Sam Narunei
Age: 14!!!
Gender: He's bi! Just kidding. He's a guy.
Region: Hoeen.
Personality: Sam is a really nice guy...well, that's what he wants you to think. Inside, he's actually a kind of mean guy. He doesn't like people that much. Also, he absolutly hates most guys, cause he was buillied at school. Despite all this, he's very nice to any girl and all pokemon. Some guys are also on his nice list, but don't get cocky, guys. You probably aren't there! Its a very small list.
Appearance: Sam is fairly tall for his age, standing at exactly six feet tall. He loves wearing the color brown and the color red. Black and yellow and blue are always there, though. He has black hair, yet he has blue eyes. The only one who knows the reason for this is Sam. Most people think he just dyes his hair with natural oils.
History: Sam comes from a family with great reactions and senses. This is the result of a rare power with no name. Aoorah is Sam's name for it. He considers it a gift, and he definatly has the strongest of the powers. No one in the family can hide anything from him for long. This is the reult of his power. He has decided he must choose a mate who is capable of passing on this power, so that the future generations would have this ability too. He thinks this ability is strong enough to stop wars and make peace.

Hello (Captain's name),

My name is Sam Narunei, the last of true Naruneis. You probably know, due to the many publications on us, what the Naruneis are. A clan weilding a mysterious power called 'Aoorah'. Due to this, I see things that no one else sees. I can do things no one else can do, and I can tell things no one else can. These quailties are what make me think that I can be a member of your voyage, along with my two closest friends, who are pokemon. I am willing to do anything, but I would like to be a navigator. Due to my abilities, this would be a good goal for me.

Please consider this,

Sam Narunei
