(Four major canons have recently been returned to the list of available canons: Jack, Elizabeth, Will and Norrington. See the bottom of this advertisement for information on our “Jack Sparrow Audition” being held Sept 3-Sept 18)
It can be said that the downward spiral began when Jack sought the heart of Davy Jones; that unnatural treasure sent everyone on a mad sprint to the Isla Cruces, and all that followed was death and heartache. But what if witty Jack had discovered another way to avoid being called to join Jones’ crew? Devils and Black Sheep explores an untold version of the story, in which Jack Sparrow did indeed find those one-hundred souls for Davy Jones, and continued on his merry way.
Devils and Black Sheep is an alternate universe Pirates of the Caribbean role-play that occurs after the Curse of the Black Pearl and incorporates the spirit of Dead Man’s Chest and At World’s End without following their actual storylines.
Jack Sparrow and his beloved Pearl are currently docked in Tortuga. The scallywag of world renown is anxious to return to his mistress the sea after encountering certain...female troubles...and seeks to follow the noble pirate tradition of pursuing questionable profit and almost certain death.
To add to Jack Sparrow’s troubles, a newly resurrected Barbossa has recently returned to Tortuga, intent on acquiring a ship. Setting aside his desire for the Black Pearl for now (or has he?), his interest instead is in the Naval ship the HMS Integrity currently on its way from England to Port Royal. But before Barbossa can “acquire” his prize he must first find some other mode of nautical transportation as well as a crew. He has found an abandoned brigantine, the Maelstrom and the restoration work has begun in preparation for a journey that will, hopefully, intercept the Integrity prior to its docking in Port Royal.
The action continues with the landlubbers of Tortuga. A small town full of rustle and bustle, but without the protection of the military by their side, the citizens have learned to always keep a careful eye on the dark alleys once the sun sets. Tortuga is a fine place, a place where pirates call their home only second to the sea, a place where everything comes with a price.
Devils and Black Sheep is an AU Pirates of the Caribbean RPG featuring canons and original characters alike; we’re huge fans of both! The board features three pirate ships and the flagship of the Royal Navy. Adventure is not limited to the high seas as the inhabitants of Tortuga can attest.
Devils and Black Sheep
(Intermediate to Advanced, Rated PG-13)
Rules || Canon List
=========================================
The current handler of our Jack Sparrow has decided to give up the character due to a busy RL. So.....
We will be holding an audition for Jack Sparrow on Devils and Black Sheep that will run from September 3rd through September 18th. At the end of the audition period the person who has submitted the best application for Jack will win the role.*
Please note that because DaBS is an existing PotC site, there are a few relationships (with original characters) that will need to be carried over by the new handler. However, these relationships do not include any current love interests (and certainly no wife or offspring) - the new Jack will just need to acknowledge that he knows a few of our original characters if they are in threads together in the future. How those relationships develop going forward is entirely up to the “new” Jack and those OCs.
We have a guest friendly Questions, Comments & Suggestions forum if anyone needs additional information.
Also...while the audition is taking place, our current Jack will be finishing up one last thread and then will be bowing out of DaBS ready to turn over the character to the winner of the audition.
Elizabeth Swann, William Turner and James Norrington have also recently been returned to the available canon list. We are now accepting applications for those three characters as well...although there isn’t a formal audition process. Once a suitable application is submitted for those characters, the role will be filled. (and like Jack, Norrington is also finishing one current thread while waiting on the person who will take over for the character)
* The admins reserve the right to hold an additional audition if a suitable application is not submitted within the given timeframe.
