Who: Crew of the Triton's Mistress and OPEN for all!
Where: Isla Empieza
When: October 25th-Onward
What: After the fog has rolled in, and the sky has grown dark the Mistress decided to dock on the nearest Isle until it passes. The problem being- that the damage has already been done. Little did they know what they were in for.
Warnings: Nightmares, violence, chaos
Style: Whichever you prefer. Action or Prose
Status: Open to all! Don't be shy! Bring your own nightmares along too if you like!

That unnatural fog had grown increasingly thicker during the morning hours, hindering the ability to navigate. Were it not for the lapping of the waves beneath one could forget the ocean even existed. Equally disconcerting was the distinctive lack of the sun. In it's place an oddly colored moon loomed over the horizon bathing the world below in an eerie glow. It's presence was ominous, one might even go so far as to say it was oppressive. No matter how much time passed, it continued to remain set in the sky as if it were staying there by choice, waiting to see the chaos unfold below for it's own amusement.

Steering the ship into port was faced with a few of it's own difficulties. Once the vessel had come to a rest, the crew would be free to load up on any supplies they required, partake of the local fare, or remain on the ship if they preferred. They could wait for a change in weather conditions in relative safety...

.. Or so it may have appeared.

For those fortunate enough- or unfortunate enough they could have spotted the ghostly vessels approaching, dipping in and out of the fog and mist. One touch is all it would take. One touch to act as a catalyst to all the horrors that were usually locked away in the recesses of one's mind. Much like Pandora's box, once those fears and phantoms were unleashed there would be no stopping them.

[OOC: As always feel free to add your own headers if you wish. Members of the crew, and those who are not members of the crew are encouraged to join in. It definitely would be interesting to see just how many nightmares we'll be able to share with one another and it's a great opportunity to build some cr!

One more thing~: If any of your nightmares take the form of a creature, person, what-have-you and you happen to have an account for them/it feel free to use them! You might want to give us the heads up in the topic as to whose nightmare it is!]

--

The race back to the floating finish line at Port Chance is perhaps as chaotic as the beginning, with ships blasting each other with cannon fire and desperately try to sink the other as they jockey for position. The day is fine and fair -- but no matter who is in the lead or how close to the finish line you are, a ship black as death with tattered sails will pass right beside you, casting frost on decks and sails before flying over the finishing line and disappearing into mist.

Once the ship is gone the skies clear completely, breaking open to a beautiful blue day laced with sunshine. Crowds on either side cheer wildly, throwing confetti, flowers, discount coupons at nearby brothels, rotting fish heads, and occasionally small flash bombs so be careful of that.


After the winners pull into the docks specifically assigned to them, the captains and/or representatives of the first three crews will be taken up to a series of raised platforms high above the city to be presented with: A golden ship, a silver ship, and a bronze ship respectively.

Then they will be attacked by the presenters and have to run from the platforms or be killed, as per tradition, though they won't be pursued further.

The Fourth Place winner will have their Large Mystery Box handed to them after the winners have escaped and must then fend off their own attackers, as per tradition.

The Tenth Place winner will have the small mystery box placed on their ship in the middle of the night (on the 1st) and have to then roust the intruders before they set the sails on fire, as per tradition.

Everyone else gets a cast iron fish head bottle opener chucked haphazardly at the captain's head. (One per crew)


Afterwards, everyone is invited to a two day party! Lasting until the morning of the 2nd, when the town will gather together and chase out any lingering pirates with pitchforks, swords, and rather unpleasant incendiary bombs. As per tradition.

(Don't forget the talent show running on the 1st! See Musa-mun for details)

Racing or not, there is much to do and see on the days coming up to the Great Ghost Race. Port Chance is in full festival mode with food, dancing, games of luck and skill, and fireworks every evening. There are figures of Davy Jones everywhere, from statuettes to cloth dolls to painted signs, as if the residents are trying to ward off bad luck. Otherwise there is an air of festive mood, so come and mingle! Enjoy the sights and sounds! Gawk at the wide reverse waterfall as it goes up the mountain, or the more regular waterfall that goes down the other side.

Haytham Kenway left the ship on May 26th without a word or explanation to anyone other than the short, cryptic note he penned to Elissa. That's when it all began. She shared the information with Harlock, of course, since the ship's captain might wonder what happened to his Quartermaster. The days following were fairly the same as any other day at first, but the more days that passed without any communication from Haytham across the journal, the more difficult it became for Elissa to act unconcerned. Each successive day with no word has made her a little more short-tempered, a little more irritable, and a little more like a powder keg just waiting for the right spark which is hardly a pleasant situation when working together on a crew.

[[OOC: Do you dare approach her when she's obviously enraged at a part of the rigging that just won't do what she wants it to do? What about asking her to pass the salt at the dinner table? Speak to her in passing? Hide out and whisper about her foul temper with another crew member? Will you resort to asking what has her in such a mood or are you not that brave? Will you finally figure out that Elissa and Haytham have been sharing a cabin? Ask her if she's seen Haytham. I dare you.

I will place some prompts inside. Feel free to use them or start your own. Talk to Elissa or about her. Bait the bear or armor up or take refuge where you think she won't show up!]]
