Meg waited until the other man walked away, then stood up and made her way to the man she was looking for. She looked him in the eyes for a moment before she spoke. Her voice was quiet, soft, yet very clear. It was clear she came from a wealthy family from the way she spoke. "Good evening, mister. I'm looking for a job, on a ship. I happened to hear you were looking for some," she paused, "people to employ. I am willing to offer my services."

"My parents have known I've been gone for five years." she said, giving him a hard stare. "As for a reason, I have none. And you call me Meg." she said abruptly. She watched his face carefully. She was willing to answer people's questions as long as they were asked with the right tone. She wasn't one who let herself be pushed around just because she was a girl. Her motto 'Push me, and I push back'.

(I added a picture to my bio)
Levania sat in a chair that balanced on two legs, her own legs propped up on the table. Her eyes scanned the cavern warrily, her gaze covered by long, unbrushed, unkept, auburn locks. If one were to glance in her direction, they saw an armed woman that seemed to be taking a nap. But in her corner, where no one really went, she was left alone.
Levi's attention was gradually pulled to a man sitting at a table a few feet from her. Already two people had come up to him, talked, and shook hands. From what she could hear, it sounded like the man was trying to find a crew, and something about punishing England. The second person that came up to him was a woman. Which made Levi wonder about joining. The last ship she had worked on, she had been the only female, but if she joined this one, that wouldn't be the case.
With a long moment of thought, Levi straightened and stood, adjusting her shirt and black over-corset to sit comfortably on her thin bodice. Pursing her lips, she slowly made her way over, standing on the side of the table furthest from either the woman or the man taking crew members.
"I woul'n't mind a lil' adventure in my life. England ain't my favorite place in the world, and them royals need to be braught down a few notches. Might I join in?" she inquired, her obvious northern Irish accent sticking to every word. The only reason she had decided to do this was for something to do. She had thought of trying to find her family, but had decided it a useless task. Three years with pirates put a price on ones head, and finding one family in vast America would prove to be an impossible feat...

Alexander's eyes widened as he took in another woman crewmember. "any'ne who despises England is welcome" he said warily. "though, wha experience dae either of ye have?" he asked the two women.

"The last three years of my life have been spent on the high seas on a pirate ship by the name of the Crymson Dutchess. And I've faught and won my share of battles. Is that a'nough for experience, or should I go into detail," Levi inquired, raising an eyebrow at his expression. Obviously he wasn't expecting women, but that reation wasn't a supprise to the auburn haired woman...
(hm... is it alright if I make another character? {Male this time, of course})

A young man walked in the bar, silently. His dark eyes began to scan the room, in search of the man that the old beggar had informed him about down at the harbor. Finally, he spotted him. And with two ladies, no less.
I already am beginning to like this man. Dyvad thought as he walked over to the counter.
He ordered a mug of ale for himself and paid the barmaid promptly as the ale came out. He winked at her before she left and took a sip, glancing over the rim of his mug as he did so. He sized up the Captain of his new adventure, figuring he would get to know his crewmates later on.
Seemed smart. Tough. Strong. Determined. And he paticularly liked the last trait he figured the man had. Finishing every last drop of his ale, Dyvad walked over to the table, pulling a chair up as he did so, inbetween the Captain and the auburn haired woman. He waited for them to stop talking before he nodded his greeting to the two ladies and then addressed the Captain.
"If you are looking for a navigator, a scout, a lookout if you will, from atop the 'ast, then you've 'ound your man. If you are lookin' for a warrior, a fight'er, and a man passinate for the spill'n of English blood, then you've 'ound your man. If you are looking for a willing Irishman to join your Scottish crew, who is willing to do what it takes for the better of the crew and the ship, and kill as many traitors and English bruts as possible before 'is service is up, then you 'ave most definitely 'ound your man. And his name is Lee. Dyvad Lee. Pleasure to meet ye, Capt'n." Dyvad said, his Irish accent clear and crystal. He paused, waiting to see the Captains ideas of him.

Alexander sized both women up, thinking. they seem to be compenent, and this Irishwoman seems to be skilled enough. He pulled out a hip-flask and took a long swig from it, swallowing quickly as the fiery scotch burned his throat. "Yae're hired." he said. "Wes' pier. Abou' an hour afore dawn. Be thar'," he said.
He was unprepared for the arrival of another young lad, who appeared to be around 20 or so.
"If you are looking for a navigator, a scout, a lookout if you will, from atop the 'ast, then you've 'ound your man. If you are lookin' for a warrior, a fight'er, and a man passinate for the spill'n of English blood, then you've 'ound your man.

And his name is Lee. Dyvad Lee. Pleasure to meet ye, Capt'n."
Alexander nodded, considering the lad. He looked compentent, but then, everyone he had recently met. And yet, there was somethng about him, something, capable. Alex felt as though he could trust this young man. He shook the lad's hand and said in hused tones. "Welcome to the crew, Mr. Lee. Contrary to yer' statemen' yer the third Irishman tae join up. The name is Alexander MacGregor." he said, leaning forward. "Ye'll all meet me' a' the wes' poin' at the appoin'ed time. Come ready. Edinburgh is still a dangerous place for me and every other Clansman who lost the Rising. Weel leave wi'out dallying. Best o' luck."
((Eru, sure you can make another charrie. Oh, and could Alexander and Levi have a romance? Just throwing it out. I'd like to try my hand at it.))[/b]

Dyvad took the man's hand gladly and nodded. "I'm glad to see I won't be the only one." He added, glad to have fellow Irishmen - or woman, he presumed - along with him. He grinned his youthful grin and said, barely over a whipser, "I'll see ye in the morn, Capt'n." With that, he stood up and nodding to the ladies once again, before walking out the door of the tavern, eager to start.

Alex noddd to the twop women, then stood up and headed for the upstairs portion of the inn. "Ah'll be seein' ye." he said, nodding respectfully and heading upstairs, where he entered his rented room and fel asleep quickly, still fully dressed.

Meg listened silently to the conversation, she didn't answer the Captain's question. She let Levi answer the question. She shook the captain's hand to seal the deal. She looked up sharply at the new lad who had joined them. She watched him carefully as he spoke, watching his hands and his eyes. It was a habit, you never knew when someone wanted to kill you. Meg nodded to the captain when he retired to his room. "Well, she said, "I'll be seeing you two tomorrow." she said to Levi and Dyvad.

(Sure, there can be some romance between the two.
And here's my second character:
name: James Bone
age: 25
physcial description: messy brown hair that has obviously not been cut for a long time, around 6'4", and physically fit. He has variouse scars, including two on his face, from fights he'd been in. Has one blue eye and one grey eye. Likes to wear a faded red bandana. But not always on his head, sometimes it's wrapped around his hand or tied around his neck. Wears a white shirt, sometimes a black jacket or vest, plust brown or black pants, and worn brown boots.
pic: http://emi-hotaru.deviantart.com/art/Pirate-15751407
history: Bone was born on a ship heading from England to America, and spent the first months of his life on that ship. Once in America, his father was a boat maker and fisher, so growing up, he learned those trades. Bone always loved the sea, gazing out at it's vastness as if called to it. At the time his last name was Fisher. But the town they were in was attacked by pirates, and his parents lost their lives to protect him. As James watched the pirates sail away, he realized how much freedom of the sea they must have, and wanted to join. So he snuck aboard a merchant vessel to find a pirate crew to join. At this point he changed his last name, and by luck quickly found a crew that let him aboard. For years he sailed under the comand of a strict captain and murauded many vessels. But after many battles, earning many scars, an english ship attacked theirs, and they lost. James was taken prisoner and was to face the gallows, but he escaped jail, and made his way to try and find another ship to join...))
Levi nodded to what was now her new captain, and to the other woman. She examined the newcomer, a fellow Irishman, for a second. She nodded to him, before returning to her own table to resume in the possition she had been sitting in before, only this time she began to clean her pistol...
(I'll bring Bones in later...)

((Nice bio. I almost typed 'Aryann', from one of my rps...))
Meg looked at the other two, "I'll see you tomorrow." she said. Levi then went back to the table she was sitting at before. Meg walked toward the door of the bar.
A drunk man bumped into her, but she narrowly avoided being crushed. The man fell against the wall with an 'Umph.' He looked Meg for a moment. She stood there, daring him to say something. He swung his bottle about as he spoke, "I'm sorry, lass, I didn't see ya there." he said, his words slured.
She took a step towards him. "Don't call me lass." she said darkly. Her hands stayed where they were, but they itched to reach for the hilt of her sword. She knew she shouldn't waste her time on a drunk, but she couldn't stand some men.
The drunk man considered that for a moment. One of his only slightly drunk friends walked up to her. "Don't show men disrespect, lass." he nearly spit out the last word.
Meg tried to breathe deeply. Her fingers strained. Don't touch the sword, she told herself. "I wouldn't show them disrespect if they didn't deserve it." she retorted. Why are you doing this, she asked herself.
"I ought to teach you a lesson for that." the man said, stepping towards her with an arm raised. Megan's blue eyes smoldered. Her temper had almost reached its limit.

(It's been a few days and no one else has posted... I guess I'll introduce Bones now then, lol)
The man walked down the street in the dark, a smirk on his face, and a thirst in his belly. All evening he had been tracking rumors of a captain looking for a crew to go against England. Fresh out of jail, Bones was ready for some revenge on those no-good, lower than cabbin boys, whacha mucallums. He couldn't pick one word out of the colorful language he knew that was bad enough to end the sentence.
Of course, he wasn't really looking for trouble with anyone in the tavern right now. But trouble was standing in the doorway. A woman seemed to be picking a fight with two men, or vise versa. So Bones stepped between the two.
"Excuse me, but I believe a lesson don't need to be taught to a girl who's bold as this," he said, recieving a glare from the two men, and they got ready for a fight. "How about this, I'll deal with the lass while you go get yerselves a drink an' leave me alone."
Bones handed the two men enough coins for two drinks each. Coins that had been stolen off of a man just down the street. He waited for them to leave, then started to head to the bar himself, but not before saying something to the woman over his shoulder.
"By the way, lass should be a compliment to what other things they could'a called yeah," and with that, he sat down at the bar and ordered himself a bottle of rum...
