NEW CREW [DON'T HATE ME!]

[Deleted]

Hi to the universe! This is Squash with a message to those who want to join a crew full of pure unadulterated fun....well actually I can't really promise that since it's the members that make up a crew not really just one person.Not to mention the fact that it hasn't been created yet....But will be soon trust me...I know a guy. Anyways, if you join, you gotta pull the weight with me! And AS MUCH AS I DON'T WANNA DO THIS, I WILL REJECT ANYONE WHO I THINK WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EITHER A) Keep up with threads OR B) Meet a certain requirement of quality. It sounds like discrimination, kinda is. If you are denied due to the latter, then I'll give you a chance to show me what you can truly do. Please understand I don't hate you! I've had experiences before when someone did not want to plot with me simply because I wasn't good enough. If it really means that much for you though, I'll let you in and wait to see if you grow in roleplaying.

Well, that's about it! Happy RPING~

(Just copied over my profile one)
The air was stale with the blood, and this wasn't an unusual smell to Hugh. The dead rats that now inhabited his stomach once gave off the same smell, with a small difference, it wasn't such a pungent odour. Moving quietly alog the riverbank, Hugh knew that caution was paramount in an area such as this; the Pirates docking ground. Earlier this week, his brethren had resolved to hit one of the ships in order to procure food, but Hugh could see the danger it held and kept himself behind.

"I told.. them not to g-.... No, it is my fault, I should've gone with them." Hugh was locked in a battle with himself as he feared the worst for the orphans. Eventually he came across the ship described to him by one of his friends, a massive boat with a distinctive Tuten Kaman headdress draped ontop of a feline featured mast. Steadying his hand, Hugh threw himself off of the river bank and ito the sea, swimming furiously and frantically towards the pirate ship. When he finally came to the underside of this beast, his luck was shown in form of a dangling rope, almost inviting anyone to climb abroad. He thought to himself about how easy this was, and a knot tightened in his stomach.

With several large tugs and bouts of exhaustion, Hugh managed to scrambe up and over the decorated fence that seperated the sea and the deck. However, when he reached his destination, he soon wish that he hadn't. Blood, the smell of blood was more prominent, and not because of rats. Littered across the deck were the bodies of many he was knew and called nakama, their blood was the horrible smell that infested the riverside of Logue Town. He should have known. Time stood still for a moment, no tears or remorse came as his brain tried to process all of his loss, but finally his mind gave in. Sinking to his knees, his steak-knife clattering around him as Hugh's fingers lost their feeling; Hugh would feel the hot sting of tears jab at ever corner of his face.

"W.....w-why?"

Bang.

Ren grew somewhat tired as he walked around an unfamiliar island looking for something to do. As Ren was walking he noticed a sign on a restaurant. "Help Wanted, must know how to fight." Ren jumped at the idea to do his two favorite and get paid will doing it. So he went inside and talked to the manager and hired right away as they were short of staff.

After the first few minutes things were quite easy, he was getting fairly good complements for his food, but then a gang of people came in. "Hey look at that guy their he has funny clothes on." One of the drunk guys said sitting down. Ren ignored their stupidity until one of them said something that angered him. "I think I've seen those clothes before, their that wimpy temple places clothes. With that weak master." Ren walked to them. "Take that back." Ren said angrily. "What was that weakling I couldn't hear you." He said. "Take that back before I have to make you pay for it." Ren said even angrier. The guy stood up and said "Make me take it back." Ren hoped that would be what he said he jumped in the air and delivered a spin kick in the face sending him flying. He grabbed his face and yelled to his men to attack Ren. Ren moved with incredible speed taking down each with ease. They ran away and then the manager came out. "You destroyed my restaurant!" He yelled. "Oh uh, sorry about that." Ren said with a nervous smile scathing his head. In less than ten minutes Ren was fired and was thrown out. Ren sighed. "Well to get to sea I need a ship and to get a ship I need money. How am I supposed to get money when I keep getting fired." Ren said picking up his stuff.

He then heard a women scream and rushed to see that the pirates were once again causing trouble. "Gale Fist!" Ren yelled as he ran at the captain punching him in the face sending him to the ground. "Why can't you crap guys every learn you can't just take everything and anything you want." Ren said landing. They once again tried Ren, but the exact same thing happened. He walked to the women as they ran away. "Thank you so much, they would have killed me if I didn't give them money." She said. "Don't worry about them anymore." Ren said with a smile. "Is their anyway I can repay you?" She asked. "Yeah you could give me a boat." Ren replied sarcastically. "Okay, I have one at the docks I don't even use." She said. "Oh mam I was just kidding I couldn't take your ship." Ren said. She kept insisting until Ren agreed. "Well I got a boat, not the way I thought I would but it's fine with me." Ren said as he got to the boat grabbed out a map from his backpack and sailed off.

Okay Menma, I've got some good news and bad news. Since I'm such an evil person, I'll start off with the bad news.

Unfortunately, your character has been denied. Now before you click away and start raging at me thinking that I hate you [refer to what I said above] listen to what I have to say. Over the course I' ve been on the site, I got to observe your posts and quite frankly, they're not that excellent. Definitely good enough for people to see that you can improve but the problem is that I haven't been able to see much growth since I saw your first app. For your sample post, it felt rushed and included some errors like "will" instead of "while." Not to mention that I see your name on two other crews?...This just tells me that you're either A) Unfaithful to a crew you applied for or B) Too desperate.

Now for the good news. Good news is that you can see this and calm yourself down if I angered you. I am still leaving up my option of allowing you as long as I can see you're developing. Well I guess that's it for now but as of this moment, until you respond, you are

SPOILER: Click to show

Arcane was ready to set off on his voyage across the world. His journey as a pirate and an enemy of the government was about to begin. Even though thoughts were buzzing through his head, he did not feel nervous or even near what could be classified as anxious. He was raised in the wild and knew not to be afraid because to be afraid means to have something to lose. Arcane had nothing to lose, well, except his katana, which he didn't want to lose, but except that, he didn't have anything else, therefore he had nothing to be afraid of. Every day was like a gift to him, a chance to learn something, hunt, fight, destroy and maybe steal something.

Arcane was not very talented at sailing, his ship went multiple ways, but he had to maneuver the ship to the best of his ability, Arcane had been sailing for three days and two nights, Arcane was hungry but running short on everyday necessities. The sea was full of very colorful fish, it enlightened many people's days just to see the fish since it was dark and gloomy outside, the precipitation levels raised in these few months. Arcane has learned to survive without eating for several days, especially in winter but it was spring and he had no food. Within just a matter of thirty minutes after waking up, land was in sight, Arcane did not even know where he was going but according to the map, he was heading to Pecos Town and that was a bad thing for a rookie pirate.

Many rookie pirates lives were taken in Pecos Town, most shot down at first sight. Pecos Town was fairly small and was home to many wannabe marine gunslingers, they rode around on horses with a hint of cowboy related clothing. As a small town that underwent a sudden growth spurt, Pecos Town is built in two distinct styles. The downtown district, which encompasses the sheriff's office and jail, along with various inns, saloons, gambling houses and banks, has a rustic style. The buildings are all one-story and made of wood and brick. The saloon, the only building to have an upper level (used as a dining room), has swinging doors that frequently have to be replaced due to overenthusiastic partiers kicking them in too hard.

As far as Arcane could see and oh yeah, he had a good idea, being in the wild tends to make your eyesight stronger. There wasn't a lot of flora, just cacti and tumbleweed, like you would tend to see in old western movies. No one seemed to have the patience to grow anything due to the very hot weather and the soil did not look very rich in the minerals needed for growing crops. Arcane couldn't see much more.

Upon reaching the island, he pushed his small canoe onto the sand and looked for some type of material to tie his canoe to a tree, there was one tree not far from the ocean that was huge and looked fairly strong, he searched around desperately until he spotted a rope big enough for tying his ship to the tree. Due to his lackluster and low intellect he ran up to the rope, not thinking why a random rope would be laying on the ground in the middle of nowhere, once he picked it up and almost immediately he was stuck and yelling like a hooligan, the rope must have been used for catching food due to the lack of fauna on the little island. Arcane pulled out his katana, the one he received from his step-father which was originally owned by his father who he had never seen before, it took him about a minute to cut the thick rope apart. After getting loose he picked up the half ripped rope and tied his canoe to the tree, doing two knots to solidify the connection, he then left in search of finding a market of some sort to stack up on goods and find a decent place to rest for the night.

Despite no food and water for days, he was still running to the best of his ability, singing a fast song in his head, while running he took more visual characteristics of the island into note. Lizards, snakes and scorpions are frequent household pests. Approximately ten minutes after he reached a small city located east of where he docked. While entering the city he took more characteristics into note. The newer buildings, which form a ring around the downtown area, are much larger. These are normally at least two stories high and use wood, brick, and plaster. There are a lot of weapon workshops in this area. Houses tend to be large and opulent, with smooth white plaster exteriors and clay tile roofs, similar to South Blue housing styles. It seemed boutiques were quite popular in Pecos Town too. Walking around the town he spotted a rather large market with almost everything he needed, supplies, goods and overall necessities needed to live. Standing juxtaposed with an older man he talked to the shop owners, each of them looked like they were in their thirties, they wore felt cowboy hats and the western cowboy attire, one of them even had a mustache.

"Uh, hey could I have some citrus fruit, clothes and could you give me some directions as to where the nearest hut would be?"

The men chuckled to themselves a bit due to the directions Arcane asked, the men decided to rip off Arcane due to his low intellect.

"$50 for everything you've asked for."

Arcane itched his head and then replied.

"Well, I don't have any money!"

"What's your name, sir?"

"Arcane, Arcane Kazai."

The men discussed to one another, they sounded like they had heard the name Arcane Kazai before, they took out the list of wanted papers in the shelf under them and saw his wanted poster, no beri was being given out for capture of him, that being said they all cocked their revolvers to Arcane's head and a crowd gathered shortly after.

Okay I'll make this as concise as possible. For your sample post, I didn't really get to read the whole way through cuz it got kinda boring...Tip for the future, use nicknames, aliases, etc. for your character instead of saying their name over and over again. I don't wanna read "Arcane did this...Arcane went there...Arcane was this..." Y'know?

Regardless, it seems like you have a full understanding of what I want so with pleasure I say

WELCOME TO THE CREW
