A pirate's life for me

[CAPTAIN MARQUIS]

twenty-nine , pirate king , no magic , single

being the infamous pirate king leader of the black armada isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. whilst it’s true with the crown marquis has gained countless fortunes (and lost countless more). the holding the title of pirate king comes at a terrible price, forever cursed by the very thing that cements his claim to the throne; the black crown. turned to stone at the mere submergence of water needless to say the pirate king marquis julius esperanza has to take careful notice less he meet a watery, stony demise. first and foremost marquis is loyal to his crew and they to him. while there’ll undoubtedly be a few stragglers that’ll want to claim the title of pirate king for themselves for the most part marquis crew along with fellow unaffiliated pirate remain loyal to marquis (for now). raised by a band of courtesans, thieves and mercenaries marquis might seem rough around the edges favoring money and self-indulgence above all else. to befriend marquis to truly befriend him one would have to not only possess something he wants but also appeal to his humanity (which is all but shriveled up by now). at the pirate him his enemies are many, manly those in positions of power. he inheritably hates nobles and seeks to take advantage of them whenever he can. but for the most part until he decides otherwise marquis will immediately think of anyone and everyone as a possible enemy whether they be city watch, a fellow pirate or a stuck-up noble or royal. lastly lovers, he’ll no doubt have countless of these though he won’t think much of them than a simple lay every now and then. he likes to target woman of status however as it’s far more profitable. if someone for some odd reason wanted to start a genuine relationship with him they would have to find someway to keep him interested for the long run or else he’ll simply wander off to the next warm bed.

[LACHLAN DUDLEY]

Marquis && Ysadora
No. No. And no. Marquis and his life choices do not appeal to her in the least. He may appear charming and damn if she let herself slip once or twice, but she will very much detest his similarity to her sister, Pherene. If he were to make a move on Pherene because that obviously isn't going to happen, she'd definitely wedge herself in between as a cockblock because a.) her sister's honor b.) it isn't ladylike or proper c.) Ysa doesn't understand letting loose. Marquis, in truth, would probably make Ysa very uncomfortable which would in turn elicit her bitterness. But deep down she'd definitely find him interesting and would be curious about his travels (if she knew he was a pirate). I think together he and Pherene would send Ysa to an early grave.

Marquis && Lachlan
I know I pm'd you already but just to make it seem official. So since Lachlan and Marquis mothers were both prostitutes perhaps they grew up near one another and were friends. Lachy is a bit older but regardless they may have looked out for one another. Eventually because of angst they are seperated and when Marquis goes to spring a shipmate out of jail (before his/her execution) he runs into Lachlan (who is getting ready to execute said shipmate). And reunion. <3

[LADY PHERENE OF OSTLEA]

marquis&pherene

Hello, love. Pherene is a loose canon, at best. She's loud and reckless and never has another's interest in mind. She too much enjoys toying with people and it's bound to get her into a bad spot eventually. She's more than game for a romp around the captain's quarters. But she's well ware that it will greatly impede her "honor." In that being said, Pherene would grapple with whether to simply mess with Marquis or be one of his countless "warm beds." If she were to be a single evening conquests, Ysa would make her hopelessly guilty for the act and Pherene would feel backed into a corner. (How is she to marry a wealthy man while being sullied? Not even her dull fiancee will remain interested, if word gets out.) In fear of being scorned for her choices, Pher will announce that she was taken advantage of and forced into the act. She still isn't very good at accepting the consequences of her actions.[/blockquote][/size][/font]

[CAPTAIN MARQUIS]

Marquis && Ysadora

Marquis would find her completely and utterly infuriating. Never before has he encountered someone not only flat out rejecting his advances but also denying him the conquest of others. Needless to say given how lustful he is at any given moment her attitude towards him would only increasingly make him want her more. So I doubt her rather pathetic attempts to convince Marquis she’s not interested will have any form of effect on him. With that said in the end it’s Royal Blood his after not Ysadora (though who’s to say he can’t have both?)

Marquis && Lachlan

So much angst, I love it. It’ll be interesting to see who Marquis would value more, he certainly doesn’t want his crewmate to be decapitated (as he doesn’t have a infinite amount of cannon fodder yet) but at the same time he wouldn’t want to harm (or at least attempt to harm) one of the few people Marquis could have called a friend at some point in his life. Drugs being one of the few things Marquis doesn’t partake in he would be disgusted (at a tad sad) and how Lachlan’s life turned out but he wouldn’t bring it up.

Marquis & Pherene

It’s almost terrifying how well they SHOULD get along. Marquis would have (like all women) had his way with her and be gone before morning (after taking everything on her he could possibly pawn). It would be hilarious if through Ysadora’s pestering they set up a trap for Marquis (who doesn’t want to have a threeway with two princesses) ending up with Marquis being thrown in prison and Lachlan he designated executioner (so much drama I can’t help myself). Needless to say if he escapes the Ostela’s better watch out; oh yes kidnapping will be fun. (also deep down marquis might have a shroud of respect for pherene because she isn’t like the other prissy nobles *cough* her sister *cough* and would instead see her as a pirate)

[YGRITTE BLACKBURN]

Fayne && Marquis

Alrighty! So let's see---Marquis wants to kidnap Fayne for his figurehead on his ship, these two could be a pretty fun interaction :3

Fayne is naive and gullible to the point of stupid really and she's very, very, very new to the surface life. Meaning she's about as easy to fool as well--someone who's really easy to fool. In other words, its like stealing candy from a baby. She's stupidly openhearted, if extremely timid and awkward, but we might be able to come up with something where she gets kidnapped :'D].

of course, all Marquis has to do is ask and she'll likely go along willingly for whatever cockamamie reason he can think of XD.

Remy && Marquis

A dislike for the nobles? Oh mah! From the looks of it Remy and Marquis might get along swimmingly just on that fact alone!

Well, at least until Remy realized he couldn't con Marquis that is. They both seem like really strong minded people who are used to getting what they want and aren't afraid to manipulate people if that's what it takes. Maybe Remy could be an informant for Marquis? Remy is fairly strong minded himself and hates authority figures (poor bby has issues) but if it involved making the nobles pay he's willing to bow and scrape if he has to. I think they're personalities are somewhat similar (at least in regards to being manipulative people out for their own interests) so I don't see them being very close friends as I think it'd be hard for them to trust each othe rbut maybe mutual aquaintiances? or frenemies. because that would be fun :'D

Raeggos && Marquis

Hahaha no. :'D

Since Marquis hates sorcerers/socrery and Raeggos hate well...everybody, I don't see these two getting along very well. If at all. If anything, I think they're more likely to try and kill each other, which would be fun! On the other hand though since Marquis is a pirate king though, maybe he could be one or Raeggos's 'tea' suppliers? It'd be interesting to see how they'd interact either way~ :3 if only because I enjoy writing violence //shot

Ygritte && Marquis

Ahahaha---Ygritte would hate him. Like, oodles of hate--if only on principle. Of course, she doesn't really have much room to talk because she's not exactly an upstanding character herself, working for the cosa nostra and all.

She had various stints in jail, so it'd be interesting if they knew each other. Either way though, I think his personality would annoy the bejeezus out of her. of course, they could always bond over children as they both seem to have a soft spot for them

[CAPTAIN MARQUIS]

Fayne && Marquis

Seriously who doesn’t want a real life mermaid as their hood ornament? Anyway long story short Marquis doesn’t like merfolk in any shape form or matter his hatred towards them borderlines racism it’s so intense (with good reason they’re the ones that cursed him). Marquis would kidnap her simply to be malicious towards her race and god help her if he ever learns of who she really is. Her innocence would annoy the hell out of him but despite all of that I can see Marquis eventually warming up to her to the point were he might somehow someway feel an ounce of regret towards kidnapping her (andmightlethergofurtherdownthelinebutdon’tbetonitmarquisisn’tagoodperson).

(hiskindacurioushowmerfolkareinthesack)

Remy && Marquis

I could actually see that, Marquis being of course the pirate king would need lots of information. Whether that’s information on prospect parties amongst nobility or a caravan or trading ship that would be a prime target for Marquis and his men. While surprisingly enough I don’t think Marquis would actually dislike Remy that much, well so long as his information is correct. If it’s not...well Marquis wouldn’t be a very happy pirate king. But apart from that Remy’s useful Marquis would realize that and treat him accordingly and reward him.

Raeggos && Marquis

Yeah Marquis probably wouldn’t enjoy him all that much either if only because magic is completely and totally lame. He wouldn’t actually hate him though more like possessing no real opinion on him. I do like the idea of being a tea supplier for him Marquis would probably tease him for drinking such a ‘womanly’ drink but for the most part he’d be respectful and bite his tongue. If it’s one group of people he respects it’s his clients.

Ygritte && Marquis

Oh Marquis would loathe her. Well not her personally but the fact that shes in cosa nostra would be reason enough for him to not enjoy her existence. Marquis sees the cosa nostra as a rival and would do everything in his power to undermine their operations. Perhaps she’s sent to ‘intimidate’ Marquis for budding in on their territory. Marquis of course wouldn’t enjoy being spoken to in such a manner and then the Cosa Nostra Pirate war would begin.

[FAYNE UNDARIA]

Fayne & Marquis

AMG

AMG--DID YOU SAY MARQUIS HATES UNDINES/MERPEOPLE/MERTHINGS?!?! AMG THAT MEANS FAYNE HAS TO BE KIDNAPPED NOW BECAUSE MY 'I NEED TO TORTURE MY CHARACTERS METER DEMANDS IT'.

Alright, caps spam finished I think it'd be interesting for it to happen as it can help her character grow a bit. She's really child like (like in a super duper 'what are beards and why is stubble so nice and can I touch it' kind of way) so I think being kidnapped and forced to confront someone who hates her race so much will be a very trying experience for her. and because she's an open hearted dumb-dumb she's probably going to be all ;A; -comfort hugs- I WILL HELP YOU FIND IT EVEN IF I DIE' because that's how she rolls if she hears about the whole curse thing. poor bb is really too open hearted for her own good.

Somehow, I think the poor girl will while, not forget she's been kidnapped, somehow justify it because she's weird that way which could also make the kidnapping interesting. //yaay self confidence issues that somehow go in to a massive guilt complex.

still, she'd really appreciate it if he would let her go because her brother might be worried. also, she's a freshwater undine not a saltwater undine and knows nothing about this curse thank you very much

Remy & Marquis

Haha, I think most of the dislike will be on Remy's part because he hates being under anyone's influence--even if it's selling them information. And I don't think it will be dislike, more of grudging respect. strangely enough, those two go hand in hand for him. Remy has a smart mouth despite how silvertongued he can be at times, and sometimes it gets the better of him ^^'. meaning Marquis can expect a lot of stupid gossip as well as real information if Remy is being a smart ass. And lol, I think if Marquis ever suggested that Remy got his info wrong, Remy would flip XD He takes a pride in that sort of things. Because if he's going to be a manipulative information broker, he's going to be the best damn information broker there ever was darnit! //shot

As for rewards, I see Remy asking for outlandish amounts of gold because he can and only then because he knows how much his information is worth but also favors---mostly in the form of information itself so he can fulfill his own vendettas. He'll likely flip flop between the two to just be annoying, but I can actually see him coming into a grudging like (think cliquey high school girl and you've got Remy almost to a Tee) so I think if they do get close enough to become more friends than aquaintances, Remy will toss out more information that he would otherwise and offer more of a helping hand.

Raeggos & Marquis

Lol, Raeggos would totes take offense to the whole 'womanly drink thing' and would probably get ready to snap only to realize that Marquis is one of his only suppliers. cutting the throats and murdering your old supplier isn't exactly the best form of customer-supplier interaction and likely just make a lot of threats but not really do anything. poor bb can't live without his tea.

Ygritte & Marquis

Oooh, that sounds interesting! Ygritte isn't a main member of the cosa nostra (she's only an enforcer and even then her loyalties are wonky) but she takes her job very seriously so if she's told to intimidate, she will. I think she'd probably know who he is, which would make her a bit more cautious, but she's driven by her goal of finding her kids (and killing the people who sort of slaughtered her family and enslaved her children) to really care, which might be interesting. I'm fairly sure she'd be dubious of Marquis--if not a bit intimated herself.

[CAPTAIN MARQUIS]

Fayne && Marquis

The fact that see apparently seems perfectly content with her new lot in life would drive Marquis absolutely crazy. So much in fact that he’d probably simply ignore her, rather than having to listen to her prattle on about whatever it is she’d be talking about. Also, no hugs Marquis isn’t a touchy-feely kinda’ guy unless he’s drunk or in the mists of certain’ activities. I could see poor Fayne walking in during one of his escapades. A scarring experience for them both I’m sure.

Remy && Marquis

For the most part Marquis wouldn’t mind, some long as the information his getting is relevant and correct Marquis would gladly pay whatever he wants (within reason). He’d of course find his attitude to be rather annoying but his usefulness would far outweigh his relative annoyance.

Raeggos && Marquis

Yeah apart from calling him a woman during each of their interactions I don’t think these two would have many dealings with one another. Unless you have ideas. Sure they’ll see more of one another when he starts venturing further into elven lands but for now he’s focusing on the human and merfolk areas.

Ygritte && Marquis

He’d want her killed, or at least taught a lesson. Nothing personal mind you it’s simply business and she chose the wrong side. Perhaps she found records linking her enslaved children to Marquis’s ship? While he doesn’t personally have or deal in slave trading he does rent out extra space on the Mona Lisa for any type of cargo so long as they’ve to coin to ship it. With that said he wouldn’t know anything about her children but he wouldn’t tell her that instead mocking the woman because he’s just that cruel.

[LADY YSADORA OF OSTLEA]

Marquis && Ysadora
Ysadora says he cannot have both. Or either, for that matter. She does not like him dirty pirate, but more importantly she needs those rings to sell to the Rorret! If he takes them, her main source of money to lend out dries up. Nope. She won't tolerate that. If Marquis is ever going to get her to relax a bit no smexy, he'd essentially have to tell her everywhere he's traveled and in detail describe the lands/peoples. She likes stuff like that. OTHERWISE HE CAN JUST GTFO. Also, he if so much as touches her sister he forfeits his life. :3 Well, in Ysa's eyes at least.

Marquis && Lachlan
Broken bromance. </3 Yeah. Lachlan knows the drugs are bad but he wants them so much. The only thing Lachlan is truly good at, he feels, is fighting. And then Marquis is just gonna come out of the blue and wedge himself into things and complicate his job. In turn, once they're initial meeting has been establish he'll totally be jealous that Marqy gets all the babes. It isn't fair. Most run from Lachlan if he so much as looks their way. He'll be wanting tips.

[CAPTAIN MARQUIS]

Marquis && Ysadora
Marquis doesn't very much care about Ysadora's opinion of him is. He only really want's her famlies jewel Royal Blood. His going to get it one way or another wheter that invovles taking advantage of Ysadora by force or not. :x

Marquis && Lachlan
Marquis wouldn't help but find the irony in Lachlan coming to him for help. He'd be so amused in fact that Marquis might even indulge him and help him out. "H-Have you ever tried smiling Lachlan? I don't even think I saw you smile once when we were children; and that was BEFORE you became a drug-crazed portable guillotine. Speaking of guillotine we're going to have to come up with another job for you! You reak of death. It works for me because I'm a pirate I'm adventerous you decapitate people no adventure there execpt I suppose to hell."

[LADY PHERENE OF OSTLEA]

marquis&pherene

Because she's careless, she isn't the owner of many of the royal jewels and instead prefers to purchase trinket-y items from the markets in town. Frankly, Pherene would be much more upset if you took one of her trinket necklaces over one of the royal jewels. This first time, I don't believe they will pick up immediately that he's a pirate. So... perhaps, if Pherene invites him back for a second go around and if he obliges, then, yes, there will definitely be a set up [/blockquote][/size][/font]

[FAYNE UNDARIA]

Fayne && Marquis

Lol, Marquis can rest assured that Fayne will be legit terrified at first you know, once she realizes she's been kidnapped. It will only be after she's been taken captive for a while that she'll start the whole ;A; justyfing it kind of thing. So Marquis can still enjoy him some terrified undine //shot

And amg XD

If she were ever to walk in on one of his conquest's I don't think she'd know what to do XD Watch undine have different sorts of sensibilites on that stuff and she'll only get horribly embarrassed if she sees him kiss someone. because really, who hasn't done the horizontal tango already? jk. she's still a virgin--poor bb's to awkward for anything else. and her brother is protective.

Remy & Marquis

Oh gosh--I can totes see Remy pushing now just to see how much he can get out of Marquis;__; greedy bastard. Once he figured out Marquis' limit though, he'd probably back off. he does after all, enjoy living.

Raeggos & Marquis

Yeah, I don't see too many dealings with this two either besides the whole 'here's your tea you woman' sort of thing. If I think of something though, I'll toss it at you~ :3

Ygritte & Marquis

Oooh, that sounds like a good idea! Anything with Ygritte's children involved is sure to make her lock on like a hound on the hunt. She's very single minded, so if that was the case I can see her going after Marquis even if it wasn't on Cosa Nostra business. Of course, this'd also probably make her a bit reckless b/c she's never at her most reasonable when her kids are involved
