Sylum Advent 2017: December 1st

***

This was a very large update!!  Hence we had to take the Wiki down for a week to prep everything for Advent.

So here’s the thing.  We’ve done some re-arranging, adjusting, deletions and additions.  Along with updating the Clan Pages, The Library, and Main Tables!

Some of this rearranging is due to changes that is going on within the stories, set up for future stories, protecting Sylum from actors/actress that ended up on the ‘oh hell no list’, and storylines that have been abandoned.

Just to give you a small indication of how big this update really was …

Deleted Characters: 24

Added Characters: 50

Moved Characters: 10

Let’s just say the only Clan that didn’t get touched in some way: Sila Kin Clan.

On top of the character updates we’ve also updated the main tables to show case the 10 Races … you might remember the post about it.  Tags have been added to characters that are related to these specific categories.

We have changed a few things around.  The Home Page is now a static page that introduces Sylum, and has a table with links to the Clans, Clan Positions, Organizations, Ten Races, and Enemies.

The bios will not be seen under the ‘Sticky Post’.

Please Note: As we’re on a shared server and we’ve officially started Advent … remember that lag time could happen, so be patient!

Sylum Pirate Aesthetics: Captain Jack Sparrow

***

(Aesthetic created by Captain Jack Sparrow)

Jack stared at the cloth that had the key drawn on it. The lengths he went through to get this small piece of information was enough to make him want to get drunk.

Wait.

He was already drunk.

He had to be, to be able to lie in a coffin for hours on end.

Talk about life imitating art.

Or was that dead imitating life.

Now that he had the cloth all he had to do was find the actual key, and what it opened.

He tossed the cloth onto his desk, grabbed his compass and opened it once again. He closed his eyes and wished for his deepest desire. A smile appeared on his face when an image of Will asleep on their bed came to mind.

The compass pointed directly at his bed.

He growled and tossed it back onto his desk.

Sylum Pirate Aesthetic: Blacksmith William Turner

Four guards came into the holding area, one stood in front of Elizabeth’s cell as a warning to Will not to try anything, while another opened his door. The last two dragged him out.

He pulled his arm free, shoving them into each other. “I can walk just fine.”

“No herorics!” One yelled slamming his hand into Will’s shoulder pushing him forward. “We know about your last prison escape.”

“Which one would that be?” Will asked as they escorted him out of the jail and across the square. He frowned at the size of gallows being built. He could understand one hangman’s noose, maybe even two, but seven.

“When you ran off with that pirate.” He answered with the assuredness of knowing the truth of what he had been told.

“Yet, here I am, in Port Royal.” Will stopped and looked at the guard, head tilting slightly, channeling his Mate. “If I had run off with that pirate, wouldn’t I not be here.”

The soldier stared at him, completely confused.

Will smirked. ‘I can see how Sparrow’s ramblings and made up words works.’

Sylum Pirate Aesthetic: First Mate Joshamee Gibbs

***

***

“What have you done?!” Gibbs yelled, staring in shock and horror.

“I’m doing what needs to be done! I’m saving us all.” Elizabeth reached down to drag Will away, calling to Gibbs to help her.

Shaking himself out of shock, he pulled his gun, aiming it directly at her. Joshamee Gibbs will not see his Captain betrayed again.

“No!” Jack called out to him.

“Captain!” He didn’t lower his weapon. “I can’t leave you.” Gibbs shook his head, not wanting to think about the consequence.

The pirate’s tone was sober and serious. “Joshamee, save me Will. Get him out of here.”

“If you die…”

“Luv’?” Jack stretched his arms out, giving him a cocky grin. “I’m Captain Jack Sparrow.”

The old seaman lowered his weapon, grabbed Will hefting him over his shoulder, and climbed down into the boat. He laid the unconscious man gently down, Ragetti covered him up with a blanket.

Sylum Pirate Aesthetic: Pirates Pintel & Ragetti

***

***

They stared at their two new passengers, with shock and dismay. Will shook his head, saying exactly what Jack was thinking. “You’ve got to be kidding me!?”

“We want to be part of your crew.” Pintel motioned between him and Ragetti. They had known this was a long shot, but they were tired of Barbossa and the other undead pirates. They had decided to plead their case to Turner, knowing if they could convince him that they were changed undead pirates, and loyal to the Pearl. The captain would have to take them in, as everyone knew Sparrow couldn’t say no to his First Mate.

“On the Pearl? The very ship you hijacked from me, and then became undead Pirates.” Jack sashayed around them, giving them a suspicious stare. “What makes ye think I’ll let you onboard?”

“One cursed pirate to another.” Ragetti commented. “We have a kinda comradeship, knowing we’ll be eternal while loved ones die around us.”

“We’re not cursed.” Will pointed out, giving them both a look. “You betrayed Jack, and you kidnapped Miss Swann.”

“Well you really don’t care about that now, do you lad?” Pintel returned the look, one eyebrow raised. “Considering her announcement.”

Sylum Pirate Aesthetic: Captain Hector Barbossa

A sound of metal hitting the floor resounded through the bathhouse.

The occupants looked down to see a piece of eight lying innocently on the bathhouse floor.

Warrick glanced over to Tony, who shrugged slightly.

They all turned as footsteps echoed against the boards.

Everyone stared in shock.

“How did you get in here!?” Feng glared at his guards. This was the second invader, heads were going to roll he guaranteed it!

“Advantages of the undead.” He smirked, his hand slipping into the moonlight, showing his skeletal frame. “I have no interest in rescuing Sparrow, but I do have an interest in something of greater importance.”

Will growled low in his throat, struggling against his captors for the first time since they pulled him out of the water. They tried to hold him, eyes going wide as the wood log began to splinter.

“The song has been sung. The time is upon us. We must convene the Brethren Court. As one of the nine Pirate Lords, ye must honor the call.” Barbossa looked over at Captain Sao Feng. “It be time to put our differences aside. The First Brethren Court gave us rule o’ the seas. And now that rule is being challenged by Lord Cutler Beckett.”
