NOTE: Like every ship, The Crow is addressed to by sailors and seamen, as of feminine gender

Anyone wishing to join the crew of The Purple Crow must accept the following rules:

The Purple Crow is a merchant ship. Her crew may craft the goods that are to be sold according to the individual skills of each member. But The Crow serves as a freight ship for other merchants and/or a yacth service for wealthy passengers as well. In her past, The Crow also dedicated herself to piracy, smuggling, espionage for major kingdoms, guilds and other organizations, and worked under privateering contracts. These are major activities The Crow regularly indulged into, and will keep on with them in the future as well.

All members of the crew can negotiate working contracts on behalf of The Crow, but every assigment must be mutually accepted by each and every member of the crew. The contract can be negotiated further, and finally signed by the Captain of The Crow.

When The Crow is sailing, each and every member of the crew must give his support in manoveurs and other required duties (tiding, cleaning the deck, cooking, minor repairs, etc.) during day hours. At night guarding turns will be instituted.

When The Crow is docked, guarding turns will be equally shared among each and every member of the crew. Those not involved in such duties can disembark and indulge in every favoured activity.

To each and every member of the crew is granted freedom of speech and major decisions are taken in community. In the event of a controversy about a decision, a public votation by hand-raising will decide upon the debated subject and majority wins. Captain's vote counts twice.

Under challenging and dangerous circumstances (such as sea-fights or storms), Captain's decisions can't be questioned at all. That's the only exception to the rule above.

Each income, gain or loot is equally shared among all crew members.

In the event of Captain's sudden death, a new captain is chosen among crew members via a public votation by hand-raising. New Captain can also choose to disband the crew and sell the ship. If such occasion arises, the income is equally shared among crew members.

Prolonged absence... but still alive

Work is hitting pretty hard on me (not that I really complain for it) and I've not been logging for about a month by now. That means Ryn didn't sell anything, which means no new money into the common treasure. I hope you did some random selling around Wink

The real meaning of this note is:

a) no, I'm not dead, I'm still alive but with less time to play
b) sincerely hope to meet you all again soon!
c) be well and enjoy your time on the server and work for The Crow's sake!

end of OOC communication.

To those it might concern...

I won't be online 'till next Monday (October 31st). I'll be in Florence for job.

So don't worry: the captain didn't escape with the loot Wink

Stay safe, have fun, see you all around soon!

Application to Join

[i]Sirs, Madames

I wish to join most prestigious Purple Crow Enterprise to offer own artistry and talent for benefit of the ship's pirateers.

Onshore Sharessia - members can benefit from discounted prices of experienced masseuse to ease aches and pains after sea travel

Offshore on Purple Crow voyage - members may consider to have join for artistic skills as masseuse and dancer to entertain wealthy passenger or crew during voyage.

Please to excuse sea-sickness at times - desire to limit offshore/journey due to delicacy of stomach at sea.

Say hey!

Hey guys,

I've been reading through the forums of the Crow, checking out lists and posts, but I'm having a hard time actually finding out who is here and who is not, and how everyone is!

So I figured I'd make a post saying "Hi", so uhm. Hi!

Supporting a ship

I wonder how we should handle chars that are not part of the crew but have some links to the Crow.

After all the Crow is not just a ship, its also an enterprise and as such has also many helping hands that do not sail on the ship itself. Dockworkers, people who do repairs, who bring food supplies and all that.

Fish!

I want fish, you want fish? We want fish? Who wants fish?

Is anyone around with gardening? I'd need a lot of healing mushrooms. Together with the fire essences from the beetles and the raw fish that makes some good dishes. Not really worth selling them as there are loads of people selling fish anyways but maybe for our own uses to have some stock of them left.
Especially for chars who rarely fight these are helpful.

Common Fund

Thanks to Eldana's insight and Neiska's help, The Crow now has a real common fund for raw materials.

HOW IT WORKS

General informations about The Crow

The Purple Crow is a two-mast schooner (30 meters long, 6.5 meters wide). Its figurehead depicts a purple crow which spread its wings. She arrived in Kortuga in Kythorn 1377 (June 2010). The Crow is ruled by Captain Ryn (Rynafyin), a Moonelf with distinguishable raising-moon blue tatooes on his face, and an even more distinguishable purple tricorn hat.

When she docked in the port-city, The Crow brought the signs of a battle and heavy damage had been inflicted on her: the rear mast was inclined backward with an odd angle.
