The Pirate's Code II: Good Fortune [Day 1]

[CirclMastr]

CirclMastr cast a glare across the crew, and took a bite out of a piece of hard tack.

"Sure 's yer born, that Ryven do still be a carrrse upon th' ship.  We'll not be ridda th' mutineers 'til we be ridda 'im.  But this young pirate don't be forgettin' that it were Josietta what voted th' mutinous Aiden fer cap'n afore!  Me quandary be, do I follow me 'ead or me 'eart...  I be castin' no vote yet, but I be tellin' all out in th' open where me suspicious lie."

[Josietta]

Josi looked to the pirate known as CirclMastr and shook her long hair out. "Dinna be pointing at me for voting in Cap'n Aiden, fer twas not only me who did so. I think we should look at Sinera for a bit. Or mayhaps yourself, mate."

[Kip]

Kip looked at CircMastr as he threw out rumour and innuendo without any real proof or even making a true accusation.

"Ye be a suspicious one CircMastr. Ye ne'er say what ye truly mean, unable to blame just one of the mateys here.  I do nay trust yeh."

[CirclMastr]

"Indeed, Josietta be not th' only one ta vote fer that dog Aiden.  But th' only other one ta do so was Aiden 'imself!"

CirclMastr took another bite of hard tack and turned to Kip.

"I don' ask none here ta trust me, mate.  I just be layin' out me thoughts fer all ta see."

[LadySky]

Though I not be pleased at all with this new role as Cap'n I will do me best.

I vote CirclMastr!

[Transgirlenstein]

CirclMastr for me as well!

[CirclMastr]

CirclMastr snorts.  "Vote for me if ye must, but I tell all o' ye now, I be a noble upstanding pirate, and no scurrilous dog of a mutineer.  Let Ryven an' 'is curse be off from th' ship!"

[Saku]

Saku decides to go with the majority. CirclMastr

[sinera]

Sinera reminds all that only Josietta seemed overly concerned over the fate of that murderous dog, Aiden. In 'struth - she 'ad to go drown 'er sorrows when 'e was cast overboard!

[Ryven]

Josietta

[Josietta]

"Ye'd cry to if'n the one man ye bed had turned out to be a blackguard! Twas a sad day to think I'd given meself to a man as he." She sighed a bit and thought to herself, "Though he did have a nice rapier."

Circlmastr's fate was sealed by the vote.  Stripped of his weapons, he was hauled to the plank, driven out at sword point to meet a gruesome end as lunch for some of the residents of Davy Jones' Locker.

As he fell, his last breath was let out in a terrible curse against the Good Fortune, crying down vengeance upon those who had wronged him -- for, unlike Aiden, Circlmastr was a Pirate true.

• Aiden - Mutineer -- keelhauled
• Circlmastr - Pirate -- walked the plank

• Cap'n LadySky
• Marguerite - Pirate -- killed by Mutineers

[LadySky]

*facepalms*

Oh crap I knew I was going to hate being captain

*Goes to get soused*

[Valerian]

The next day was a stormy one, an ominous wind springing up that brought with it whispers of coming rain.  The crew woke early, preparing the ship for the possible torrent -- all except one.  This time, the captain was well; but another crew member would never rise again.  Sinera had been killed during the night, the mutineers still wreaking their havoc -- and this was a double blow to the crew, for Sinera was not only a loyal pirate, she was also the Ships' Cook.

• Aiden - Mutineer -- keelhauled
• Circlmastr - Pirate -- walked the plank
• Josietta
• Kip
• Cap'n LadySky
• Marguerite - Pirate -- killed by Mutineers
• Ryven
• QueenTrippingSerpent
• Saku
• Sinera - Ship's Cook -- killed by Mutineers

There are 2 Mutineers, 1 Ship's Surgeon, and 3 Pirates.

[LadySky]

Cap'n LadySky emerges very cranky as her breakfast has not been delivered. Upon learning of Sinera's murder LadySky draws her short sword and demands justice for her ship. Pointing her sword to Saku she growls and yells loudly "Ye be the traitor I smell it on ye!"

[Ryven]

I beg to differ, Cap'n.  Sinera be the cook, and she seemed certain enough that Josietta be one of the mutineers!

[Saku]

Saku agrees with Ryven. Josietta gets her vote!

[Kip]

"Aye Cap'n.  I canna argue against Ryv'n.  Josietta must swing."

[Josietta]

"If'n I swing those Mutineers will take over this ship and you all know it. I dunno why you'd make someone swing who can tend to your ails. I think two of you voting are just those Mutineers spoken of and the other just following the lead.. I think Trip was right in her drunken accusations the first time and it is Ryven who should join the fishes."

[Transgirlenstein]

Trip looks oddly at Josiette.  "What do you mean by that?  Are you saying your the ship's doctor?"

This time it was Josietta who was fated to pay the price.  Deny it as she might, the crew was simply too suspicious of her.  She was taken to the yardarm, where a noose was rigged up and she was hanged.

The clouds darkened and the wind blew up more strongly then, a few drops of rain beginning to patter onto the deck.  This was perhaps a sign, for once again, the crew had killed a loyal Pirate.

• Aiden - Mutineer -- keelhauled
• Circlmastr - Pirate -- walked the plank
• Josietta - Pirate -- lynched
• Kip
• Cap'n LadySky
• Marguerite - Pirate -- killed by Mutineers

• Sinera - Ship's Cook -- killed by Mutineers

There are 2 Mutineers, 1 Ship's Surgeon, and 2 Pirates.

[LadySky]

Cap'n LadySky shakes her head in disgust as a loyal member of the crew is murdered before her eyes. Would they survive this scourge?
