Description Still have yet to come up with a name for my proposed pirate comic, but I've figured out the principal cast.

Note- these characters aren't in correct scale with one another. 

Basic plot synopsis-

Aubrey is an unambitious college student with a part time job as a lifeguard, a position she took mostly for the attention she'd be getting. Unsurprisingly, she's not very good at her job, and while sleeping and tanning on the job, a group of pirates invade the beach. The bumbling pirates then kidnap Aubrey and bring her aboard their ship, led by a greasy captain(who has yet to be named or designed). This greasy captain makes rude passes at Aubrey only to get punched off the ship and devoured by...something. According to some BS pirate laws that I just made up, Aubrey is then named Captain of the ship. 

Meanwhile, another pirate crew is led by the feared Cornelius Delacroix and his legless veteran first mate, Ringo. One of Cornelius' best crew members is his very efficient and intelligent and obviously fraternal twin sister, Jolie. Jolie's importance is severely underestimated and under appreciated by her twin brother, and when their crew has a run-in with Aubrey's ship, Jolie defiantly opts to ditch her brother's crew and become Aubrey's first mate, instantly causing Aubrey's incompetent pirate crew to become a force to be reckoned with. 

The comic follows these two rival crews, as they race around the world to find buried treasure, both crews being hindered and toyed with by the mischievous mermaid Circe and her mystical talking seagull friend, Froley. In their adventures, they run across a variety of strange creatures and odd beings, whether it be giant crabs, Lovecraftian monsters or undead seafarers like Daffy Jones.

Love all these characters. All for them are creative and really colorful. My favorite has to be Aubrey.

That's a really interesting scenario. Your BS pirate laws actually make a slight bit of sense. Could be that when Aubrey proved her toughness and eliminated their apparently unpopular captain, they saw no reason to hold an election. Maybe nobody else wanted the job because captains don't live too long after taking the helm. And you've got a really interesting cast of characters. You come away wanting to know more about them.

Haha, do they? That's good!

That's definitely an avenue I could take! I was thinking something like that, or maybe the Pirate crew feels that Aubrey is inexperienced and not too bright, making a mutiny really easy, but then Jolie comes aboard and ruins their plans, haha. 

Thanks, that's really great to hear, I'm glad there seems to be a good amount of interest!

Yes, that's a great idea. Maybe they were planning to use Aubrey as a figurehead, only to have the tough and capable Jolie ruin the mix. If the outfit actually starts making money, the pirates could happily accept the situation. I've read about the old-time pirates and the Somali variety, and they can be a pretty practical bunch sometimes. I really look forward to see where you take this concept.

Phobos-Romulus In reply to scorpionlover42 [2016-01-24 21:42:08 +0000 UTC]

Yeah totally!

I definitely don't want these pirates to strictly imitate the real Somali pirates, don't want to trivialize any of the things the victims or somali people have gone through, but I'll definitely keep their practicality in mind!

I feel some more fan art coming on, Jolie looks sassy and bossy and edgy and I'm running out of adjectives. She resonates with me.

Those are some cool looking pirates. I'm a fan of Aubrey myself, but Cornelius looks so much like Terry Crews that he has my sympathies! XD Well done!
