OOC Waves of Deceit

[EpicVakarian]

Also, Khaotic, I managed to see the pictures, before they went down. I see what you mean

 

[Jo'rak Vandeni]

EpicVakarian, you are in as well, and not because of the pretty woman (although that might have helped I add)

 

[EpicVakarian]

Great! I look forward to RPing with a bunch of (so far) pillaging, raping, looting pirates.

 

[Kimrisvik]

Suspicious amongst strangers, eh? How would she react when finding out half the crew is pirates?

 

[Jo'rak Vandeni]

Hahaha I wouldn't look forward to the voyage if I was Aryanna, crew is almost all big pirate men...

 

[Jo'rak Vandeni]

I have two problems here. EpicVakarina? I'm suddenly a turian ballet dancer And "woman accepted" xD I guess she's going to have a hard time staying untouched when three crew members so far are ex-pirates... If you know what I mean

 

[Jo'rak Vandeni]

Hahaha pardon me mate, saw that now too, I'l change it!

And yes, better sharpen those weapons.

My CC is now up as well, apologies for the short bio, but it is necessary to the RP that it is short and don't contain very much about Vashur's past. (Oooooh, what could that mean?)

 

[The Phantom]

Could my character have stowed away on board without anyone knowing?

Description: Erik normally wears a fine, cyrodiilic nobleman's suit with a masque covering his face; the mask is often swapped, occasionally a realistic skull; a jester or a plain white mask. He is of a rather skinny build for a man his age though still moderately strong, agile and nimble. The his face has always been deformed from birth causing him to look horrific. Some say he is unbearable to look upon and is constantly feared and shunned. It has been described by many as like a living corpse and a part of his upper cranium is slightly exposed. This is normally covered however by a wig.

Personality:
Likes: Music, Knowledge, Intelligence, Skill, Technology, Enchanting, Magic, Deceit
Dislikes: Ignorance, Insolence, Fashion, Stupidity, Arrogance, Untalented People, Deceit
Description: Erik is first and foremost, one of the smartest men in all Tamriel. His genius is nigh unparalleled by any mortal and is capable of almost anything. Due to the constant suffering and abuse he has felt in his life, Erik is often detached from himself, often referring to himself in the 3rd person and making self deprecating jokes and comments about his appearance. As a side-effect of this he is also capable of being slightly sadistic to the point of keeping a "torture chamber" in his home. The Phantom is also rather eccentric in some circumstances, normally being quite kind and with a great sense of humour however he has a very short temper depending on who he's dealing with. Erik has been known to be extremely possessive of things, objects or people, his most notable "treasure" is a music box in the shape of a monkey. His current passion is for music, of which he is indisputably one of the greatest musicians alive. One of his many aliases is the "Divine of Music" which he calls himself due to his skill in the arts. He takes most pride in his seraphic singing voice, as the quality is almost perfect and displays such passion and emotion because of what he's been through. Overall he is an extremely complex man, capable of nearly any feat. Yet also capable of nearly every emotion. Except love, which he longs for.

Fighting Style: Erik prefers not to fight under most circumstances, normally having people killed discretely as he once earned the nickname the "Trap-Door Lover" and often uses his genius and angelic musical abilities. Often fooling people into really believing that he is in fact, the "Divine of Music". The Phantom is notably an expert illusionist, being able to cast complex illusions with ease, often toying with people before killing them or leaving their minds broken. Alternatively he is also a brilliant sorcerer and specialises in the use of fire, often using his own custom spell; a head made of flames that follows the target, if it doesn't drive them insane then it's bite is rather deadly. Through the use of magic he can also breathe under water from where he likes to ambush and set traps for unwary people. His signature weapon is his "Punjab Lasso". A form of noose and rope enchanted so that when thrown it will lock onto to the target and strangle them to death, this earned him another title, King of the Stranglers. One more note, he employs his torture chamber for psychological warfare. The chamber is simply a room made entirely from mirrors, the ceiling is one bright gas-light (An invention of his) meaning that the room will continually heat up to the point of death. There is but 2 things within the chamber, a tree made of iron but painted to resemble a tree in every way, coming from the tree a branch, and finally hanging from the branch is a noose. Due to this the tree is reflected throughout the room creating a forest illusion and if you do kill yourself, the last thing you see is yourself being hanged in the many mirrors one thousand times over. A final point is that he is also the first and best ventriloquist. He need not open his mouth to speak and can cause his voice to emanate from points of which he is not even close to.

Biography: His story started 42 years ago in the small town of Morthal. He was unfortunately, horrifyingly deformed from birth, his own mother both feared and loathed him. The first item of clothing he was ever given was a mask. If he ever tried to kiss or hug his mother she would scream and run away, throwing him the mask. His father never met him, although he was a master craftsman, a skill Erik inherited. Due to this he had a horrible childhood and eventually ran away from home. A Khajiit caravan took him in where he made money as a freak show, "The Living Corpse", was his title. During his stay with the Khajiit he mastered the arts of illusion and sorcery, while also inventing ventriloquism. He asked to leave the caravan to journey the world himself however they refused and Erik was left with no choice but to kill them all. A merchant who had seen his talents mentioned him to the leader of the Forebears in Hammerfell, who promptly sent a Guard Captain to fetch him. Erik complied and travelled to Hammerfell, it was here where his genius was fully realised. Upon talking to the leader of Hammerfell, he discovered Erik was a gifted architect among other professions and requested he build a palace for him. The palace was exquisite and was full of trap doors, secret rooms and other curious areas. They say that not so much as a whisper can be said without it being carried to the secret areas. He also invented his horrific torture chamber for use of the Forebears' leader. For a time Erik was commissioned as the Leader's private assassin, mostly taking part in political assassinations. During this time he invented his fabled, "Punjab Lasso", and earned himself the title, King of the Stranglers. He soon took a passion for music and soon mastered his abilities to become the best musician in the world, his singing and instrumental playing was so good and unearthly that he could essentially hypnotise people with his music. Unfortunately for poor Erik, the Leader of the Forebears realised that if Erik ever left, his skills might go to use for another rival ruler! Thus he ordered Erik to be blinded, however he thought that even without sight he could accomplish things so instead planned to execute him. Luckily the Guard Captain allowed him to escape as the two had befriended each other, however both were driven out of the country. Erik travelled all over Tamriel where he mastered his various different skills, the Guard Captain followed him constantly as he feared of what Erik could do. Soon Erik arrived back in his homeland of Skyrim where he took "residence" in Solitude. He found the city a suitable pun for his life. He was commissioned again as an architect and builder to build a new Bards College. He made the College like the old palace. So many secret rooms and trap doors. Erik even built his own house underneath the College deep underground and across a subterranean lake. Erik was now so estranged from humanity and, seising advantage of the College he built, decided to take on a new persona as, The Phantom. The Phantom now haunts the Bards and extorts money from the owners monthly, although... Within one of the Bards he found a prodigy. He took on another persona for her and became the "Divine of Music" as he taught her. It seems he may have found love, although it might be that she hasn't....

 

[Khaotic3]

Im curious as to what the phantom of the opera wants with a merchant ship

 

[tdatapina]

Got my bio up and I updated it a bit. Really gotta get better at bios...haha

 

[Khaotic3]

I feel your pain, man. I'm really bad at bio's, too.

 

[tdatapina]

Glad to know I'm not alone.

 

[Daryl Dixon]

Alright, due to spoiling the events of the roleplay I dont believe I can post Alex's entire CC. I might be able to post it all up until a certain point but yes, not so much recent events.

Also, if anyone has idea for ship names let me know. I'll try come up with something but it probably wont be good, so try think of something haha.

And anyone abusing or making women feel uncomfortable on my ship shall walk the plank (Thats a joke, but Alex wont take kindly to it boys).

Also for the person/people(?) who wanted to be first mate, its possible but you will become first mate at the begining of the voyage, you wont enter the RP as first mate. You will also have to have known Alex a while, and will be introduced to plot details others wont know for a bit.

 

[Kimrisvik]

At least Jo'Haràz has no intention on becoming the first mate. He has plans on staying for too long. He only hopes he can find a way back to his former ship, "The Cursed Queen"

 

[EpicVakarian]

I'm no longer interested in being first mate. Not now that I'll have to get the plot spoiled. Anyway, who's the captain of the ship? Is it Alex or Vashur? I'm kind of confused.

 

[Tiaz Raydari]

Vashur you would just say is an East empire representative that makes sure that trade happens between the Aldmeri and the East empire company, while Alex is the Captain of his ship; whatever it might be named.

 

[EpicVakarian]

Oh, okay. So judging from what Dixon put, Abby can turn to him if she's mistreated. Sounds good, though I think she'd be more likely just to fight them off

 

[Jo'rak Vandeni]

Phantom, like Chaotic said, what reasons would your character have to join a trading ship of mercenaries and "cutthroats" to Summerset Isles, if he is so unsocial, what would bring him to go on a ship packed with people for an uncertain amount of time, with low chances of privacy??

Also, there is confusion about command so here's what is happening.

Me, Vashur, is representing the East Empire Company on the ship, I am the one you all will work for, and Captain Alex will follow my orders.

But, Alex will be the captain of the ship, commanding you lot, it's a bit like, for example, he's the king, but I'm the god that tells him what to do? If that makes sense.
