The Sun rose over the port city of umbar revealing its crumbling splendor .
towering buildings and palaces and battered taverns and dirty inns .
In one of the dirtiest and most disreputable inns a Fight was underway about normal for "The Laughing Corsair" on a weekday morning
most of these men had been drinking since the day before and were now both drunk and fighting mad .
a tale flew accross the room and shattered into bits against the wall .
The fight raged back and forth accross the tavern there seemed to be no sides and no real reason .
(OOC this is a semi directed Rpg not entirely freeform it has a plot and a whole background set up for it and this is where you can start coming in Remember jack Sparrow will be the captain so no one else needs a ship)

Sapphire was in the market for a ship, as the last one she was on had met a rather unfortunate fate when they were attacked. Her and a few others had managed to escape. She was hoping to find someone to buy a ship from. She was sitting in The Laughing Corsair drinking, when people had started getting loud, and looking anxious for a fight. She immediately drew her dagger, and sat there with it concealed in her cloak. She was more than a little paranoid, and would draw her weapon at the slightest disturbence. She sat in the corner carefully watching the fight break out, hoping nobody would come near her. If they did... well, they might just regret it. A chair flew in her direction, and she leaped up, and stood there with dagger drawn, daring anyone to mess with her.

A large bald man staggered to his feet swearing loudly and threw a bottle at the nearest head
the target ducked it swinging a left hook into his face and a right into his jaw .
Then came round in a sweeping round house kick and sent the big man sprawling lmost at saphires feet
The young man gave her a quick smile and returned to the fight .

Sapphire was usually happy, cheerful, and easygoing, but she always became tense and paranoid during a fight. When the man fell at her feet, she was ready to go after the one who had thrown him there. But when she looked over at him. his smile caught her off guard, and she just couldn't do anything to him. She backed up a little, and continued watching the fight.

(ooc suspect you miss read that one just a little the man who smiled was the one who kicked him across the room)
Lucky Silver danced through the fight dodging with a natural grace and punching the odd man he couldn't dodge
suddenly a wild swing by a chair ripped the chain from his neck and sent a silver coin on it spinning accross the floor
he became immediatley less confident his eyes scanning the floor for the coin he wasn't looking whn the chair came down again spilling him into a heap on the floor
his hand reached for the coin even as the boot conected with his head once twice three times
he didn't quite reach it before he lost conciousness

((oops! sorry! I'll go edit the post to fix it..))
Sapphire's keen elvish eyes noticed the silver coin, and that the man was very concerned about getting it. When she he was knocked unconcious before getting it, her curiousity overcame her paranoia, and she darted into the fight, picked up the coin, and dragged the unconcious owner of the coin out of the fight. She returned to her corner, turning the coin over a few times while looking at it. She slipped it into her pocket, and decided to ask the man about it when he regained conciousness.

Bunny Blackburn was heading for the tables when she saw a fight in the bar. She went up a table and yelled.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey... what's heppening in here, eh? All of you, stay quiet, or I will blow out all your sorry asses hell out of here, now!!!!!"
Bunny was wearing a hat to hide her Elven pointy ears.

Lothar was stumbling around. He had drunk more rum than was advisable for a fight and it was showing-he was taking most of the brunt of the fight. He was trying to get to the door, but with his stumbling and the wild punches being thrown, it was taking quite a while. He fell to his knees after taking a hard punch in the stomach. The last thing he saw before his eyes started swimming was a tall maiden with brilliant blue eyes.

Capitan Lucky Sam sat at a dark booth watching the fight with some interest. Fights were of some interest to him, as long as they did not involve mutiny or unrest towards him. He didn’t like fighting hand-to-hand, or fist-to-fist in this case, as a general rule. A man fell onto the table Sam was sitting at. Sam stood up, exasperated. Making his way to the door, Sam aimed a few good punches. Then he tripped over a man who was sprawled out on the floor, apparently looking for something. Well he wouldn’t find it now, Sam tripped over his head… knocking him out cold. Sam looked down… oh well. Looking back he saw a tall woman with golden hair pick something up, then drag the man to a corner.

'Is this what you're looking for?' Sapphire asked, holding her hand out to the man, with the coin sitting on her palm. 'I noticed you were trying to get it back when you were knocked out, and wondered what it was that was so important.'

She saw a man falling down to the floor and went running to reach him. She put his head over her legs. "Hey, hey, are ya all right? Wake up, man, or we'll be squashed here!" Said Bunny as she slapped him softly on his face. "Wake up!!!!!" |
