This is, for now, where all ye new Prospectives shall post to show us who you are and tell us a week bit about your dreams of piracy.
On Hundred Years Before the Hyperdrive.
Just kidding, but wouldn't that be awesome, sadly I haven't the face for tentacles.

I'm going to be posting up tonight on the story. I don't have the time now, you know, school and all. My character in the Osk Company is also my character from the Army. Norith Skarr wants to make some extra cash and help the Vast Empire with their privateers, oh wait sorry, men of fortune. You can read his Wiki if you need some more info or just ask me.

Rawr. Was going to use Jori (my retired Army character) under this account, but I just decided (like literally thirty seconds ago) to use Hunter instead. Skarr wrote:You can read his Wiki if you need some more info or just ask me.

Numbers are overrated in my own personal opinion. It's not how many pirates you have but how great you are at being one. Or something. I've had a few beers so not functioning as well as I should be. Or perhaps I'm functioning better than I should be?
...what was the question again?

Trix reporting for piracy! Aeos is asking Snipes, Kams and Decem, all part of the OSK a major favour. To take care of a kid-punk who always tails her around to the end of the universe. She feels that OSK should keep Trix enough out of her hair as well as educate her to surviving the galaxy and not just the junk yard. Trix is 16 years old. (That okay?) THis is bio. Do not read the comnet biography. I forgot my VE password, so i cant edit it, but I revamped the character majorly. http://www.vastempire.com/wiki/index.php?title=Trix

If I may make a suggestion to those posting on the initiation thread:
Feel more than free to indulge in character development. In fact, wallow in it if you can. Osk is more about meshing out the individual and diverse personalities that would find themselves playing pirate than writing about raids and various happenings. The mission and its objectives always come first in the Army and Navy, and CD second. I'd like to think we're the other way around.
Also, if you can't see your army or navy character having the viewpoint (or lack of morals) necessary to be an Osker perhaps you should consider creating a new character to post as. The Company is not something for your character to play with on the side, its a relatively full time endeavor that will pull them away from their other duties.
Finally, Osk Company and its fellows are NOT pleasant people. They will not welcome strangers with open arms, in fact they're more likely to kill you and mug you than grin and start chatting. Be realistic in your dealings with NPC's and others. It's a dog eat dog world on Osk91.
Just my thoughts, liking most of what I've seen so far though

Eh. I try and include as much CD in every post, Navy or Osk, as I can simply because its more enjoyable than posting solely about completing the mission

Nothing to apologize for, Kami is right on every point of course, but you're still learning, mistakes are made.
Osk is a hellhole full of brigands, a place for those who have lived too long on the dirty side of the galaxy to ever go back to the clean and average imperial life live.
Really I have very little to add to what Kami said, she pretty much nailed it.

I'd also like to suggest to members to read through some of the OSK stories such as 'Abraxas' as well as Kami and Dec' current story titled 'A Westerly Wind Blows'.
It should give your a reference framework at how you can deal with your posts as well as what it should be ideally look like quality and quantity wise(quality over quantity however)
What you should aim for when posting, is not having a filler post but something that moves the plot from setting A to setting B or provides intricate backdrop to something of importance and relevant to the theme of the story.
Snipes, I'm not sure so feel free to interject here.

Don't take this shit wrong guys, we're not doggin' on you. As I've said many times, Osk is different and operates differently, you don't have any specific leader, we're all trying to do our part to help you guys out.
Aeos hit a couple points I've been meaning to touch on, and I, personally, think some of you need to work on post length, your decision, but it would help, you can't accomplish much in just a couple hundred words.
Another thing, we pester eachother constantly to post again and post again. We're like that, but if it takes you some time to write up a post you're happy with then it takes some time, we understand that. Personally I tend to try to hit a page or two in MSWord or 1000 words, I don't always hit it, and that's just my standard, we all have our own standards and that's what we write to here, but I think we are all constantly striving to get better.

I am the Pirate King. I am Sniping101, and as such it is my pride to use this topic as a platform to announce a promotion. Nay, not only a promotion but the creation of a new position. Prospectives now fall under the guidance and idle hands of one Osk Matron and Pirate Overseer Aeos. She shall be guiding you through the madness of The Locker and the brigands that habituate it. Enjoy.
