She usually wears black boots with some simple pants, a white shirt and a black jacket. She usually has her hair held out of her face with a red head band, though the colour can change from time to time. She has lots of hidden pockets and compartments in her boots, pants, shirt, etc. for smuggleing weapons etc.
PERSONALITY
[/b][/center]Likes:
- Men
- Fighting
- Money
- Rum. Lots and lots of rum xD
Dislikes:
- People who get in her way
- Anyone who takes her Rum
- High Society
Hobbies:
- Sitting on the bow of the ship, staring out of the open ocean with her feet hanging free over the side of the ship.
- Reading
- Fencing
Fears: Having someone find out her secret and being rejected from her greatest love. Piracy.
Overal Personality Rae is quick on her feet and sly. She enjoys reading, which she learned when she lived in Port Royal. One thing she regrets about pretending to be a boy is her inability to flirt with men when she's disguised, but she desperatly wanted to get away from her mother and father. She's very imaginative and often has day dreams while she's driving the ship, which can often get her in trouble with the captain.
When she's free of duties she enjoys staring into space and the ocean, dreaming of her future. She loves sword fights, and enjoys sparring with those on the ship. Though she seems bold and careless, like nothing in the world could stop her, there's always the fear of being found out that keeps her cautious.
HISTORY
[/u][/center]Birthplace: Port Royal, Jamaica
Birth Time: 12:00 AM March 1st
Parents: Gerard and Elizabeth Roberts
Siblings: Mary Roberts, Nathan Roberts
Overall History: Raliegh was born into the wealthy home of Gerard and Elizabeth Roberts. She was the youngest of three children, Mary and Nathan (her twin older siblings) Though she grew up with everything a girl her age was supposed to want, but she was never satisfied. She would often daydream of adventure, much like the stories in the books she read. In her opinion, however, the only good thing that came from living with her parents was that she learned to read (a rare trait in women)
Finally, when she was 14 her parents set up an arranged marriage with Matthew Jones, the song of the Govener. That was the final straw. Raliegh set out the night she heard of the engagment with just a small bag of essentials and her favorite books, and turned her back on 'civilized society'. She didn't want to be discovered, for her parents had sent out many men to search for her. This is when she began disguising herself as a boy.
It was a lucky day for Rae when she was in the port of a near by town, when she was offered a job aboard a ship. Little did she know it was exactly what she had dreamed of-- a pirate ship. Raliegh became a crew member on the Black Bolt. She worked her way up in the rankings for two years on the ship, and is close friends with many of the crew members. Few on the ship know her secret.
EXTRA
[/b][/center]Rae prefers to use her swords, but does carry a pistol and mustket with her at all times. She is rather merciless to those her cross her path... but she has a soft side. She enjoys writing poetry, and dreams of a scandel of a romance in her future (i.e. she's a hopeless romantice-- like me! xD) Also, since she was raised in Port Royal she speaks English properly, or she used to. She's tried to adapt her speech to the traditional pirate like voice, so as to better fit in with her comrades.
Roleplay Sample:
Rushes of wind brushed through long brown, messy hair. Taking a quick inhalation, Raliegh delighted in the familiar smell of the ocean, the warm place she had called home for two years. Hazel eyes clanced upwards, towards the stars. They seem so.. relaxed... lazy... like they haven't a care in the world. She noted, banging her bare feet against the side of the ship in an easy 1, 2, beat.
She directed her gaze down, to the ocean. The waves too seemed lazy and care free, brushing against the ship in a calm easy motion, rocking the ship gently in a rocking motion. Like when 'mum used to rock me to sleep... She thought, reminiscing rather bitterly of her days in Port Royal.
Her day dreams were cut off, as usual, by a crew mans voice. "Capt'n wants to see ye!" The man barked.
"Aye, I'll be there soon enough." She retorted in a somewhat manly voice. Luckily for her, she had managed to adapt her voice so it seemd more manly. Her english accent, however, she could not get rid of. How much she wished too, then all her memories of Port Royal Jamaica could finally fade away.
