Who: The Howling Sabers
Where: Aboard the Sea Princess

Really, the horns were a dead giveaway that something was wrong. But if that didn't clue any given observer in, the fact that she cruelly taunted and zapped at anyone daring to look at her was a bigger indicator. Tojiko even seemed to disappear for hours at a time, hiding away and trying to get her head straight, but it was obvious it was a losing battle. She was compelled to act out, to lash out and take her frustrations out her crewmates. A lot of real emotions boiled under the surface, bursting forth in cruelty and malice.

A storm gathered above the Sea Princess...

WELCOME NEW CHARACTERS!
Have an intro log for the month of October!

Who: Any and all new characters, as well as anyone hanging out on or around Isla Empieza!
Where: Near the fountain in the town center.
When: New characters will arrive around October 10th! The log is good for as long as you need it.
What: You've just been dropped on your head in a weird new world. Time to figure out what the heck is going on!
Status: VERY OPEN.

It's cold. The day is cloudy and a chilly wind blows from the East, rattling the red and golden leaves of the forest just outside the town. There's a definite chill in the air and the residents of Empieza don't seem too happy either. Some are grumpy, others are going out of their way to be downright malicious, so be careful that the free beer isn't poisoned or the apples that are piled around in barrels don't contain anything you'd really regret eating.

The town even lends itself to a more sinister appearance with lanterns strung throughout and overhead, that at night, cast everything in an uncertain light and make the shadows seem longer and more dangerous. Ask the residents what they're for and they'll just give you a long look and say, somewhat cryptically: "You'll see."

HAVE FUN! And welcome to High Seas!

THE GAME PLAN no I totally did not copy this format from the Katabami, what
x 7/5 - 7-12: Port Chance, race start ➝ Heartless Island (token won!)
x 7-13 - 7/19: Heartless Island ➝ up to the clouds as we head to Great Celestial Beautiful Soldiers Fighting Force Go Island (token lost)

x 7/27 - 7/31: Humildad ➝ Port Chance, race end

Other race details, including information on the NPC pirate crew and where the tokens are hidden on each island, can be found here.

We're probably going to focus on Great Celestial Beautiful Soldiers Fighting Force Go Island because REASONS, but feel free to start threads for other islands at any time. We also still might try our hand at going after the Corpse King, too. And if there are any weather shenanigans / crazy weekly phenomena that we want to play with, go ahead and toss up a starter for them as they come up! Just be sure to date and label your threads so we know what's what!

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.

Who: Fabulous crew of the Charming Murderess
Where: Deck of the Charming Murderess
When: December 06 (thereabouts)
What: Captain O Captain has called for crew to share abilities and figure out how to work together. Or at least not against each other.

Warnings: Violence, but friendly-like.
Style: Any!
Status: Open to crew!

Sasuke hadn't been joking about training, and the more he'd seen of discussions in the journal, the more serious he'd been. It was clear enough that most of the people in this world had -- or believed they had -- some manner of ability, but beyond that the level of actual combat experience appeared to vary wildly. Before they could hope to be remotely effective with six other ships filled with unknown quantities, they needed to work out how not to interfere with each other.

That was the practical reason: the less practical reason was the side of him that had perhaps been Orochimaru's favourite and simply liked to see new powers and abilities.

Both reasons were part of why he was the first on deck at the time Marv had chosen for crew training. (The rest of why lay mostly in a learned dislike of enclosed spaces.) Standing at ease on the railing, chakra channeled to his feet to keep him steady, Sasuke folded his arms and waited to see what the other people on board had to bring to the table.
