ALLZ: Your character finally comes to. Laying, rather sprawled or in an uncomfortable position, on a rug on the floor of a small room. You know what's going on. Struck in the back of the head whilst walking along, and suddenly waking up here. You're on a Robo-Pirate Prison Ship. You never thought this would happen to you! The dorr is made of steel and is locked from the outside, with a tiny slit for your eyes to peer out. The porthole is so small that whilst you can see the sea and sky (so you know you're in the water) if you try to squeeze out you're gonna get no further then your head, because you'll get stuck. And it's best to stay on board for now anyway, I mean, it's probably thousands of miles to the nearest World. You don't want to use Magic right now, kinda risky because you've only just come too. There is a window on each side of the room though, and you can look through the bars... Looks like another cell... Anyone in it?

It's said the Robo-Pirates suddenly came to this planet after Razorbeard's crushing defeat on another one. Shortly after that the Shadoo arrived. The Pirates (particularly Razor), willing to do anything for cash, agreed to capture the population and bring them to the Prison Castle, provided they got 95% of the loot. The Shadoo agreed, saying they could take all 100%, because they have no need for 'money' and 'worthless junk'. When the capacity of 60,000 was reached, the Shadoo army would take over this Castle and turn the people into mindless Shadoos, creatures forged of darkness and so secret no-one knows what their plans are. The Pirates would make another Castle with the same capacity for the survivors.

However there's been a few rumours recently. One states the Pirates where going to take the 100% of the loot anyway, and when the Castle is full, blow it to smithereens. Another states the Shadoo army plan on overthrowing and destroying the Pirates, taking the loot for themselves. They can't change the artificial beings into Shadoos, so they thought of just wiping them out. But these are just rumours.

The Pirates, after losing badly to one called Rayman, somehow lost the technology and equipment to make their ships fly, but they have settled with water, because that's what connects the Worlds together.

All you can do now, is wait.

GM: Sorry players. You are restricted during the first post, and don't post for another 6 days from the time of THIS post, to allow for more sign-ups. You cannot escape from the ship. Not yet anyway. So make your character do something to pass the time, like jumping in bed, reading a book from the bag, practise a few weapon swings (don't hit the ship) randomly take out a pack of cards and play Patience, flip a Coin (I wouldn't bother, they're double sided so no matter what you call you win)... Anything that won't let you escape, because you CAN'T. Not until next Saturday (for me) when I put up the next post. Ok?

EDIT: Forgot to mention. No Coins are found in this post. So don't add any to your total.

EDIT 2: Just because you can see others doesn't give you a darn right to interact with eachother. Let the other person be for now.

RP: Shyril finally wakes up. He is on his side on a rug in the middle of a small room. Slowly, he picks himself up, and realises that the room is bobbing up and down slightly. 'Where am I?' He thinks. He checks to see if his bag was there... Yes, it is. And so is - thank goodness - the DaggerBlade, still strapped safely on his back. 'Good thing that's there. I would've been lost without it...'

Getting his balance surprisingly quickly, he walks over to the porthole nearby. 'It's just what I thought...'

Nothing but blue ocean and blue sky out there. 'I can't jump out, the porthole's way too small...' He looks at the door. 'And that thing's made of steel and' - he jiggles the handle - 'it's locked from the outside. Drat! I didn't think they'd catch me. Stupid Robo-Pirates. Well, there's nothing I can do now... I'd better wait and see what happens when we hit land...'

Shyril climbs onto the bed, the only thing in the room, but almost instantly rolls right back off it. 'Ergh. Boy is that uncomfortable. I'd rather sleep on the rug. Besides, there's no beams or anything to stop me from falling straight off. Yeah, I'll sleep on the rug.'

Shyril lays down, in a much more comfortable position, and falls asleep on the rug.

RP Andy wakes up and looks around. He's in a little room with no company, but he can hear someone snoring on the other side of the wall. The room looks like a cage with a little windows on the wall. The windows has fences and it leads to the room with someone snoring. Andy raises and summons his clouds to see through it. It's a little red dragon looking guy sleeping on a rug, and since he's sleeping so good, Andy decides to not wake him. Since Andy wasn't tired, he started playing poker with his cloud.
 
RP: John opens his eyes and jumps up quickly, but a bout of dizziness catches him annd he sits down abruptly. He dares not use magic in case of counter spells, but he scans the room for weaknesses. As he does he tries put events in order. He was walking through a Gryzanthian Market Town, on an 'errand', when the Robo-pirates struck. He had had 'dealings' with them before, but he wasn't expecting this...
He then realises the only weakness is a crack in the wall where the bed joined it. He smells a musty damp smell from the cell next to his, but he dismisses it. He turns on his heel and begins to pace, formulating a plan...

RP: ??? stares at the ceiling, the crack in his mask refracting the stray beam of sunlight that peeks through the boards above every now and then . He's been doing this for the past few hours since he woke up. His Cannon Sword strapped to his back, he sits there in peace, listening to the odd shuffle around in what he assumes are the footsteps of other awakening prisoners.

Rather than try and get out, ??? continues to sit there, in silence. He knows he'll be released soon enough, he can feel it. So for now he preserves what strength he has and prepares for the real test; confronting the fiends responsible behind all of this.
 
RP: Dev wakes up, stripped of his clothes in a small cell, in the vincinity of what appears to be a smelly shyguy, but on closer inspection is one of the toughest shyguys around. Dev knew who he was...But, that didn't matter right now. He mananged to find a pillow, and just fell asleep on it. dreaming about what had happened.

OOC: Sawry this is short, but it's to-the-point and I haven't got too long here anyways. I'm also looking at ASDL2+ plans, for better internet. If you want, I'll expand it. My apologies!
 
OOC: Dev that's fine. It's something to go off of and is, as you said, to the point.

GM: Once again players are restricted in actions but it's only for 24 hours after the time of my RP post, and then we will be as free as a bird. Also, no Coins again. Next post though we'll have no restrictions. For now, the goal is to hide behind something.

ALLZ: Your character hears a few shouts and the ship suddenly comes to a stop. Where in the heck are you? Before you get a chance to look out a window your cell is opened and you are thrusted into the long hall where all the other cells are, following the parade of prisonors as they - and you - are led off of the ship.

You spot only a few Robo-Pirates, oddly enough, but you've managed to take in the surrondings. You are on a beach somewhere. A forest lies ahead and cliffs to the left, the beach just stretches to the right as far as you can see. But, there are rocks and dunes. All along the path you appear to be following. Does this mean.... A hiding place? ESCAPE?

You also spot something next to the cliffs. Is that... A Portal? Yes, yes it is! Of course, you have no idea where or what "Sandy Castle" is, but that's what the name of the Portal is. But for now, you need to duck behind something, whatever it is, and hide.

RP: Shyril is woken with a slight jolt. "The ship's stopping..." he mutters. 'Have we reached land?' As he picks himself up he hears the cell door open, but has no time to react, and before he knows it he's dragged out into a large hall, probably some sort of holding bay for prisoners.

Shyril notices the many cells that line the walls. Each one he walks past is open, and no-one inside. The Pirates have captured, quite literally, a boatload of prisoners.

In only a minute he finds himself exiting the ship, being brought onto the beach before him. There's a jungle straight ahead. Shyril looks left.... A cliff.... And...

'A Portal? Here? Where am I?' Shryil thinks. His heart suddenly racing, he looks right. 'Oh. Just beach. That's... A little dissappointing'.

He looks ahead again. 'Looks like we're going through that jungle. Hold on a minute...'

Shyril spots a small formation of rocks just to the left of the path the prisoners are taking. 'Now THAT is an idea.'

As the crowd shifts, Shyril shifts with them, and then when he reaches the rock, he dashes behind it in a flash. 'I'll wait here for a while, until there's no sign of Pirates..'
 
RP: The ship stops with a jolt, and John jumps up, his hand on the hilt of his sword. "About time..." he mutters to himself as the door swings open and he's pushed outside. He's marched out onto a beach, very strategically chosen. The only obvious escape was a portal, and he does NOT fancy jumping through into hostile territory. A flash of red catches his eye. A small creature had made a dash for one of the rock formations on the beach. He smiles at the creature's courage and settles on a plan. He moves from the crowd and casually strolls over to a rock. He knew running would only attract people's attention. He sits down behind the rock, dusting the sand of his coat. All he has to do now is wait.
 
RP:
Andy wakes up noticing that someone opens the door. He can't hear the snoring in the outher rooms anymore, so he guesses that they're free. He follows the guard out, and looks around. They have a lot of prisoners, but nobody looks like him. He follows the others..

Suddenly he see some weird creatres jumping behind rocks and trips over a stone. He rolls out of the road, behind a tree, and lands on his airbag (cloud).
"I guess I'll stay here for some time", he says to himself.
 
RP: As the door opens, ??? doesn't hesitate in getting up. Being pushed around roughly, he manages to keep a steady stride in the long line of prisoners. He spots all different kinds of species trudging along in a line, persistently being poked and prodded by the strange beings holding them all hostage.

As the depressing conga line of captives continues onto a beach, ??? sees several characters, one by one, taking advantage of the clumsiness exhibited by most of the guards, making their way for a quick get away as they turn their heads away. He does not decide to take this chance.

...Malin the Shy Guy wasn't one to hide. But in a way, he was hiding. Blending in the crowd he was in, it was all part of his strategy to figure out exactly why he was brought to this strange place.


OOC: Finally gave myself a name. It's weird, it's unusual, but it has a nice meaning to it I guess.

OOC: I just realised that. Stupid name generators telling me it's a boy's name... well... uhh... CONFUSION DUST! *tosses sand everywhere and runs away* ...maybe I'll start referring to him as "it"...

OOC: Freedom!!! (I think)
RP: John watches as the last of the prisoners disappear into the forest. He had noticed a vaguely familiar Shy Guy watch his escape, but no alarm had been raised, so there was no need to worry. He decides on his plan. Seeing as he doesn't know where the portal's counterpart is, the only secure escape is by taking the boat. He looks around and picks up a stone. It disappears with a pop, and a distinct lemony tang fills the air. He nods satisfactorily. He knows he cannot take the ship alone, so he approaches the other two hiding creatures, not out of compassion, but as a tactical decision...

OOC: There's actually 3 other people..
 
OOC: I only count two hiding people...
 
RP: Dev wakes up, seeing a line of prisoners being lead off the ship. No-one's come for him yet, such a surprise. He quietly opens the door cage and slips into the crowd. Where where they? It seemed to be...Some sort of deserted Island...They were on a beach! He saw a few others who were in his prison area, some Yoshi, a shyguy, a lakitu, and some other guy. Secretly, he followed them all...Maybe he could find shelter with them....Maybe even plot an escape! Who knows, all Dev did was follow them. Quietly. Using the good 'ol fake bush trick. Quietly as a mouse...

OOC: Heh, not many people really in this game, oh well.
 
OOC: Dev, I sure hope by Yoshi you wheren't talkin' about me, because I'm a Guilmon, not a Yoshi, heh. And yeah, oh well.

ALLZ: The Pirates shift into the forest and begin making their way through it. Those who stayed behind on the beach are now undetected, the ship has also started moving away as of now (sorry John, you'll have to try harder next time!), probably to get more prisoners.

GM: Well, now the game truly begins! Dreyus (Dan) is in a different area now to the rest of us. Feel free to post as often as you like, just no spamming and all that, k? Also, after we each make another RP post we will be able to gain Coins!

RP: Shyril suddenly heard something and his head popped up from behind the rock. The very last few prisoners where walking into the forest now, and the ship has started moving away. 'That's a relief... If the ship has moved away that means nothing is watching me. Now's a good time to nove off...' But before he can move he notices someone walking towards him, and Shyril cmpletely freezes. 'Spotted?' He thinks. He doesn't say a word. This guy may not look like a Pirate but these days who know? Could he really be trusted?

RP: Dreyus continues along the line. As he turns back slowly and sees the ship floating off into the distance, he now knows for certain that he's now stuck on this island.

He thought of it as another mission. In the past, Dreyus earned a reputation as a powerful warrior who had slain the largest of beasts. Surely he could take on whatever it was that was on this peculiar island. The captors didn't seem too bright, which was a good start, he thought.

Continuing down the line, the person in front of him trips over, and pirates swarm to the clumsy fellow, readying their swords for some over the top punishment. Just as one of the pirates unsheathes his sword and raises it in the air, Dreyus reaches behind his back and pulls out his Cannon Sword from underneath, swinging it into action at fast speed and holding back the mighty blade of the pirate as he offers a helping hand and assists the prisoner on the ground.

The surrounding pirates, furious at this, all swing at once. In one swift swoop, Dreyus twirls in the air, hitting each pirate over the head and knocking them down multiple times in a split second. As he hits the ground hard from his aerial attack, he grabs the hand of the accident prone creature in front of him, soon noticing that it's a young Paratroopa. Dreyus uses his special power, slowing down time for what seems like forever for the small Koopa. He scales a nearby cliff, and bids his captors farewell with a playful salute, dashing out of sight and running out into an open field that he didn't even know existed on the island.

"What a strange place this is..."

RP: Andy sees the group walking away and the shipsailing away the other direction.
"Dang it, now I can't use the ship to get away", he says to himself, and realizes that the other people hiding are still here. So as smart as Andy is he starts to make a plan:
catapult_2.jpg

He is going to make a catapult to shoot himself up in the air. From there he will use his cloud to fly and search for other islands, allies and enemies.
Making the plan was easy, but getting creating it is harder. So Andy decides to go over to that Dinosaur thingy and talk to him.

OOC: Dan, wouldn't it be smart to change your name? Also, we can talk with eachother in the RPG now, right?
