This is yet another RP based on a book 
But Dangerous Angels is working out so well that I thought I'd try this. Just a bit of a plot and some brief char info. . .some random things. . .
Based On: Piratica, by Tanith Lee.
Anyone can join.
All the characters in this are going to be major.
Storyline (This is taken from the bookjacket, just so I don't get sued for plagiarism and mostly so I'm not missing anything important): Artemesia Faith spent her childhood on a pirate ship, and she's sick of practicing deportment at the Angels Academy for Young Maidens. Escaping, she sets out to find her mother's crew and breezily commands them out to sea.
Fiery Art soon shapes her men into the cleverest pirate band afloat. And then they meet the dread ship Enemy and her beautiful, treacherous captain, Goldie Girl. The seven seas aren't large enough for two pirate queens- Art will have to rage the battle of her life to win her mother's title. . .and the race for the greatest treasure in pirate lore.
Things I'd like to add to that, and where the RP will start off: Art falls down a staircase and hits her head. . .that's when she starts to remember. She remembers that her mother, Molly Faith, was a pirate. Piratica they called her. They had sailed the ocean, and Molly and her crew were famed seven seas over, loved and feared by everyone. Molly's code was to never kill; she stole by other means, tricks and cunning. But the cannon blew up, and Art's mother died. Her father saved her and sent her off to finishing school. Once Art abandons Felix in the snow, she finds her mother's old crew. Despite her efforts, she discovers something terrible: She had never been to sea at all. Her mother had never been a pirate. Her mother and her crew had played pirates, as actors in a play. Art's mother did die, the fake cannon did blow up.
And now *whew* is where the adventure begins. Art must take a ship, take her actor-pirates, and make them actual pirates.
I'll post my bio and just a l'ill info on the other chars so you guys can choose who you want to be and know who they are a little better.

Name: Goldie Girl

Hair: Blonde, almost white, long.
Eyes: Dark blue
History: Felix is a starving artist. He can draw, sing, pout. . .everyone wants him, although he is poor and homeless. He was on the run from the law for something he did not do when Art picked him up. He's in love with Art, but won't admit it.

History: Ebad was a slave brought over from Africay(Africa in the books, many of the names are twisted). When England became a Republic, he was freed. He worked with the rest of the crew advertising Pirate Coffee until finding Art. Oftentimes his face is unreadable and he is very mysterious.
