You seem like a charp mate if you found your way over here, cause that means that you're
probably at least considering cutting the ties to your former life and join the free
in the open space lanes. Living a life of adventure and excitement.
During your time, the ship will be your home, and the crew will be your family.
Now, the galatic republic and Empire may try to paint us as a bunch of svages,
but they're just jealous that we don't have a lightsaber up our arses keeping us from acting.
The pirate life is merry and exciting, but it's not without it's risks so in order to keep our
ship and home a float. As such we do have our own Pirate Code that we follow. Before we begin,
there are two terms that we use frequently and could be good thing to learn:
OOC
(Out Of Character)
The complete oppsotie. This when we talk to you as a person.
You may OOC be against Piracy, but IC you may be the captain of a Pirate fleet. The important thing is to distinguish the two from eachother.
Player Rules
(OOC Rules)
All members need to have a Discord account and join the server. This is to keep information about upcoming events and other types of information easy to manage for our GMs. Important messages are allways pinged to our members, so if you don't want to remain active, no need.
Members start with 1 IC character. After gaining Pirate rank a new character may be created, up to 3 IC different characters. Alts of the same IC character type are allowed. In consultation with a GM more IC characters can be allowed.
Respect each other, this speaks for its own. Respect other people and their beliefs; players ICly during RP and give them a chance to respond to you; the DM during an Event, they spend a lot of time to create content for everybody.
To participate in Events with a character, make sure it has a personal starship in the game so we can summon you. Only characters with character sheets are allowed on events, so make sure you have one! (If you need help, ask a GM).
Respect other players RP. If you're OOC, make sure you're out of the RP areas (we have an OOC area) or make sure people know you are OOC. Private RP is always to be kept private.
During Events give room for the GM to do their job and to other players to do their thing. Your turn will come, don't you worry.
Due to some previous bad experiences, we have implmented an age limit of 18+ for our players, and hope you'll respect that.
IC
(In-Character)
This term is used to help distinguish you as a player from you as a chracter.
When we're talking IC we are talking imersively to youe character, not you as a person.
For example, IC, your chracter may now how to speak Hutties, but you yourself doesn't.
The Pirate Code
(IC Rules)
Every man shall obey his officers in all respects, act as if the ship and its crew were his own, and is to give good quarters when craved.
Every Pirate has a vote in affairs of moment; has equal title to the fresh provisions, or strong liquors, at any time seized, and may use them at pleasure, unless a scarcity makes it necessary, for the good of all, to vote a retrenchment.
The Captain is to receive two shares of a prize, the Officers one share and a half, the rest of the crew will receive one share of the plunder except for Newbloods, who will receive a half share until given the rank of Pirate.
No man shall put their mates into danger by reckless behaviour, put personal gain over the crews or openly declaring their occupation.
Any pirate who has suffered an injury from pillaging, plundering, hijacking, swashbuckling, or other pirate duties shall receive compensation for the wound as follows, in credits:
Loss of right arm: 800
Loss of left arm: 750
Loss of right leg: 500
Loss of left leg: 400
Loss of eye: 200
Loss of ear: 30
Loss of finger: 100
Trigger finger: 200
Pinky finger: Life be cruel, mate
Any body part lost or wounds inflicted by punishment will not be compensated.
To keep their piece, a man's weapons are to be clean and fit for service. Either by the wielders own hand or by handing it over to the Armory. All crew will report their weapons to the Armory. Master Armorer has final say over the Armory and all that falls under it, unless overruled by voting.
One shall always look after their own and the crews wellbeing by reporting any injury, poisoning or disease to the medbay immediately and apply for a check up regularly. Master Sawbones has final say over the Medbay and all that falls under it, unless overruled by voting.
In short: We're all in this together, so have fun but keep it a respectable and nice experience for all! Be your character and stay true to the universe. For answer on any further questions (without using discord) send a mail to
jessijay@vengfulscars.com. Now we just need you to sign on the line bellow, and welcome onboard!
"I hearby swear my loyality to Captain Zalanin Naraz and his crew, and to head by the codes listed above!"
