It's hard to find character details in the threads. Plus, some characters may be tweaked, so this is a cheat sheet for SPI and I so we can be on the same/similar page when writing for these characters. If you were OKAYED, then feel free to post your character up and use some of the devices we've used in the comic so far. (I.E, pirates of the purple wing)I'll put up whom I can find, with a little description.
ARTISTS: If any of you are there... lemme know what other details you need, and put up your ideas of how the characters look. I'm not much of a visual person. Though what I see when I'm writing for them... well, even I don't quite know that.
TY!!
USED SO FAR:
THE CAPTAIN: A burley man who flies an airship for the Pirates of the Purple Wing. He has a temper which can come out without notice if you wrong him. He usually in good spirits and loves turning up his ship.
(Unowned)
SECOND MATE: A timid shy girl, the captain probably keeps around for appearances and loyalty. Despite her shaky disposition, she's actually quite sharp and curious. Suggested by PBF that she might have a crush on Stephen Pyrite. <.< If I can write it... I MIGHT do it.
(Unowned)
MYLES MILLION: A scientist who makes and repairs ship parts, aether technology for pay. He is serious and brave, but can easily give way to his other side, a woman who calls herself, Sylvian Bruno. Sylvian loves being on control over the body and has a woman form when in charge. Myles doesn't always remember what happens when his alter ego is out, but he takes great pains not to exhaust himself physically or mentally. He recently made a deal with a Pirate belonging to the PIRATES OF THE PURPLE WING... which might have not been such a good idea.
(Owned by Mylian. Played with much glee =D)
JAD 'MADWING' SKYSEEKER (Though I put SKYWING XD): A happy go lucky pilot for hire. He is a loner who has has just about as many connections as enemies. He got mixed up with the PIRATES OF THE PURPLE WING sometime ago, and hasn't realized how much that run-in may have affected the events that are soon to come. His ship is the SCREAMING EAGLE.
(Owned by SPI-14.)
Lynn Merryweather
aka "Stephen Pyrite"
(Psychobunnyfire's character.)
Lynn Merryweather grew up on the streets of Anachonism and made her way through life at first as a pick pocket, but as she grew she became more clever as to how she could lighten some pockets of the wealthy an gullible. Posing as a young entrepreneur, she managed to fool some very powerful people of Anachronism to "invest" in her "company." She was eventually found out, however, and landed a spot in a nice cushy jail cell. In order to gain a pardon, she agreed to infiltrate the pirates that terrorize the city. She now has taken the alias "Stephen Pyrite" and has become quartermaster of the ship. A position where she can collect information to pass it on to the good men who protect the great flying city.
*Thaddeus Grimlock: A man with a lot of money and time on his hands. This retired adventurer lives on the Anachron where he plans his next exotic trip to far off places. He suffers from a disease called Zombification, which cause him to take on the appearance and, ahem, milder characteristics of a Zombie. Which is probably why the Anachron Captain asked him to join their ranks in the war against the pirates... and he's also good a weapons.
(Character of Thaddeus Grimlock. His post is in the Guild Comic Plot... Work? thread.)
*Silas Ebonheart(KHAOS)- A proper gentleman who is a member of the Foreign Relations Council. He deals with matters pertaining to security, when he can actually be a bit paranoid about what he thinks may happen if the little world he lives in of beauty and riches would ever go up in smoke. He works in tandem with Captain Cochrane.
Description for Authors:
White, gold and silver formal finery (waistcoat, morning jacket, etc), with a similarly extravagent top hat. Hair is long and dark brown. Skin is fairly tanned. Largish nose. Probably quite thin and lanky. Feel free to do whatever you want with him, though. (Character of Behatzlacha-S)
Captain S. Cochrane'- (I'll try not to let the spelling beat me)In charge of goings on of the Anachron. Orders come him. A person who is gung-ho about protecting the Anachron from all possible threats. He is always quick to act on any decision, aka impulsive, but it's always for the greater good. He knows the ship like the back of his hand and knows everything going on.
Description for artists:
- Grey hair at the temples
- Coat s Blue with Gold Braid.
- He prefers to wear his old uniform - that of His Majesty's Aeronautical Navy. The cut to the coat is the same as pictured, but in dark blue broadcloth and gold trim.
( Admiral Lord Cochrane's character so look up his avi for more info)
NOT APPEARED YET BUT WILL SHOW UP, I PROMISE!!!!
*= not on official list, but I liked them.
**=No data, pulling stuff from my... uh... head. ^_^;
Lily Darling- A strong hearted girl who is a learned healer on the Anachrom. She offers help for those who are injured but would rather stay out of the 'hospital' scene. I.E. would rather not be identified. Maybe in in trouble with law/pirates or is a pirate. She's met a lot of tough people, but her bravery and kindness have tamed even the toughest patient.
*Lysethiel - (gonna be hard to remember spelling for this.)
A captain of a Steamship called the DREAMCHASER. A fighter with experience from a life of thieving and trickery. She has no love for the Pirates of the Purple wing, which is probably why she is commissioned by the city to fight them off in times to come...
*Baron James Murdock (I may ask to change name cause it makes me giggle and think of PoTC. heeee~)
A man who's whole existence is trying to be the greatest scientific mind in the world. His personality is defined by his ego, and his clever, cutting remarks about what he thinks is dull about the world of the more mudane man. He is picked up by the Pirates of the Purple Wing to be used against the minds of the Anachron. With all that stated, it may not be much of a surprise to know that he's a Caucasian Brit.
Notes to Artists: He has a burn that covers most of his face due to some experiment, probably chemical in nature. He has green eyes and what's left of his hair is a dark copper brown.
Minor Characters:
THE DIRECTOR: Very odd woman with a habit of letting her emotions get the best of her. She runs the Auditorium where plays are often held.
She also has a...
STAGE HAND: Timid, yet always obeys orders. Often is sent as a gopher to get info for the director.
(Anyone taking ownership of one of these two... just know you work in tandem with the other person.)
We need POLICE, CIVILIANS, AIRSHIP PEOPLE, CHILDREN... See Poll.)

If you're talking about the Captain of the Anachron, then the answer is 'not really'. I had tentatively assigned the character to Captain Amaranth since his name is on the character list. I left it as 'Captain A(Anachron)' since I had no profile for him, nor really knew what role he wanted. And well, forgot the whole Amaranth part. <.<;
Thus, it is open. If no one disagrees ( and it's not like anyone reads this thread much anyway XD) just read through the part, see what fits, and what doesn't and offer up the name and description so I can update the character lists!

Honestly, I've read over the part, and it very much fits my RP character like a glove. So, that being said, I go by Admiral Lord Cochrane, but in this case.. 'Captain S. Cochrane' works.

If you could put up a profile, that would be awesome. I can add it to the character.

Visual of:
"Khaos" - white, gold and silver formal finery (waistcoat, morning jacket, etc), with a similarly extravagent top hat. Hair is long and dark brown. Skin is fairly tanned. Largish nose. Probably quite thin and lanky. Feel free to do whatever you want with him, though.

I shall post Cochrane's character bio by the end of the day if todays agenda goes accordingly. Though, as for the characters physical traits, he looks like this.  Slight differences: - Grey at the temples - Coat s Blue with Gold Braid. - He prefers to wear his old uniform - that of His Majesty's Aeronautical Navy. The cut to the coat is the same as pictured, but in dark blue broadcloth and gold trim. Ex. Much like my current avatar.

I updated the characters. I also put the character's owner if owned, or unowned if not so we know who's who. Anyone who needs to update or put up a character's description, please post it below if you can.
I understand that in the original Guild Comic thread (one of them?) There are some descriptions or some links to profiles or pictures of how the character is to look in avi form. I'm not so motivated talented at this time of night as to go slog through posts, so I'll get to that tomorrow.
<.< I'd help with drawing, but after my attempt at a web comic... well... lets say Laz the Turtle and his friends seemed more amusingly drawn than impressively drawn.
Also, I shall update Captain A's name change to Captain S. Cochrane (I spelled it right! I'll take care to spell it right in the script for reasons having to do with the name having nothing to do with a male chicken)
(Edit: ninja note that the look of my avatar has no effect on the Steampunkness of my writing. I just feel like being a ninja for awhile.)
(edit edit: I swear I'll update what I said I would. Just... <.< hey look a cookie! sweatdrop )

I switched Captain A to Captain Cochrane in the script, and for dialogue, COCHRANE.
When I get a player for the other Pirate Captain, I shall change that as well...
o_O Hey PBF... remember that other role play we had where you had a steamship captain, practically a pirate named Dimitri and I had that other character Sophia? Heeeee... just had a wicked tempting inkling to cast them, despite the first mate being a bit different from Sophia.
That is... if no one claims them. I'd rather keep the spots open for guild takers. but... <.<
