[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Hey guys!" he greeted them, his bright and happy smile on his lips as he looked around at those present. "How are you guys? Oh, did anyone manage to find Charon as well? I have a feeling that it may be more than inactivity." Surely a man such as the Captain himself did not get captured. He had great battle skills! That was why he was the leader here, not himself. Not like Ao wanted to be the leader anyways.

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]He watched silently from afar; yes, he had given permission, but he wasn't going to participate. After all, you did need someone to be prepared to go fetch the medics.

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Huh? Oh yeah, Rushingclan. Alliance. Something," he said, letting out a loud yawn as he trotted off the boat and towards the group of people. "Uhhh...um, I don't really remember an alliance I think. Dunno. Half-asleep." He'd been taking a short nap to recover his energy, but he ended up oversleeping, not realizing that he was lacking a bit of sleep. Too many nights wasted with trying to improve the clan, supposedly.

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Yup, deer, alliance, yeah," he mumbled, lifting a paw almost to 'wave' at him before putting it down. "Definitely strong. Alliance is strong, yeah. I'll tell Charon about it when he comes back." Yawning once more, he stood there and waited, just in case he had anything else to say.

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Bye for now, I guess," he said, offering a slight smile to the male as he left. "Tell the leaders that we thank them...for the deer." Another yawn. God, he really needed to take a quick jog around the perimeter of the beach. That would definitely wake him up.

"Uh...someone can take the deer, unless you're all asleep like I am."

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]He, in all honesty, wouldn't be the best Anti-clan leader. Ao was not the one for raiding the homes of innocent others, unless they hurt one of their members. He would still be reluctant about it, though, but who really cared. If the canine became the leader, he'd probably give the power of sending raids and such to his First Mate.

"Aww, that sucks. Well, I hope that he comes back soon," he said, flicking an ear idly. "He's a reliable guy. I know that from hanging out with him for so long."

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Nothing much for me, I guess," he said, plopping down beside Macklemore with one of his usual bright smiles on his lips. "Then again, without Charon, nothing has been really happening. Sure hope he comes back soon." Otherwise, there might be a chance that he was going to have to take charge, and that was something he didn't want to have happen.

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"What's that you've got there, Gilbert?" the canine asked, appearing behind the tiger cub before looking at the bottle.

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Hey everyone!" he barked, appearing behind his son with a grin upon his lips. "How are you all doing today?"

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Maybe we should get Lady. After all, she's had a few kittens, so she should know what to do with this young one right here," he suggested, appearing beside the corgi.

// crappy post

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Swear your loyalty to Skulls and I will accept you~!" he woofed, appearing beside Wolfgate with the usual smile on his lips.

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Name and business?" he asked, trotting up.

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]It was time. Time for that moment he dreaded to face. Where he had to become leader. Well, he didn't really dread it. It was more like...not wanting to become the leader so soon. After all, he did know that, with his childish personality and his disliking for violence, he wouldn't make out to be a good Anti-clan leader. Maybe a Pro-clan one though, but that was a different side of his story.

Trotting up onto wherever you announced the meetings, Ao Shin sat down, eyes staring down at where his clanmates should appear. "Skull members, please gather!" he called out, his voice wavering slightly as he swallowed nervously.

"Our God, Oceanus, has spoken to me about Charon, and it is time that he takes a rest from his duties as our Captain. F-from now on..." No, he couldn't say that his buddy was demoted. Especially when he relied so much on the brown tom, and so did the feline himself. But, if he wanted to help the Skulls, he had to.

"From now on," the akita spoke again, more confidence evident in his voice. "Charon is demoted. I will be stepping up in his place. If he returns and stays active, he may be allowed to return to his position, but I will not be stepping down unless deemed necessary." God, this was hard. Demoting you bro-pal because of some inactivity? Ouch. He was afraid what the male would react to him if he returned.

"Onto the promotions and demotions. Lady Avorio is promoted to Lady, James to full Apothecary, and Porie and Fitz to Shanghai. As for d-demotions..." he said, voice cracking once again as he got to the demotions part. "For the demotions, since Macklemore has disappeared, along with Riotfire, the two will be demoted. I will also not be choosing a deputy just yet." One more announcement before finishing this off.

"James, once he gets back from a herb training from one of our allies' medics, can pick his new trainee," Ao Shin barked, before one of his usual smiles was forced onto his lips. "I hope...I hope that you all can accept me as your new Captain."

( staff-approved orders; sorry that it took so long to actually post this! uwu )

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]"Good luck!" he woofed, appearing beside Lady with a nod of approval at James. He could certainly go and get some training at an allied clan. Didn't seem like it would be a bad thing, no? After all, he could try and help out with the healing when James was gone. He was present at Requiemrain's herb training, so he knew a little bit. Just a little bit.

#skullsftwstormy

[fancypost bgcolor=; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 425px;][justify]Assuming that since the thread was posted in the Skulls board, meaning that Ao Shin could be present, he listened to the conversation, humming a tune until it was necessary for him to actually speak.

Captain; The Captain oversees everything in the Skulls. He has the final say, and he's not to be overridden. If one disobeys him, they're subject to harsh and potentially fatal punishment. The Captain receives seven lives, one for each sea, and is male.
Current Captain; Ao Shin, played by Stormy

First Mate; Equivalent to a deputy, the first mate is the Captain's most trusted Clanmate. He oversees activities and management in the Skulls, and he has the power to do almost anything the Captain can. In order for a male to become first mate, he must be male.
Current First Mate(s); Wolfgate, played by Tempest

Apothecaries; These toms are skilled in healing, and are also trained in politics/leadership. The Captain will often ask for their input on things. They may fulfill the duties of Captain/First Mate when the two are absent. They put their patients first and foremost. In order to reach this rank, they must be male, and have received at least three months of training from a credible source.
Current Apothecarie(s); James, played by Vexxy
Trainee(s); n/a

Officers; These males patrol the ship and territory, and keep the crew in order. They may also serve as bodyguards for the Apothecaries and up, though this rarely happens unless in times of danger. They are highly respected, but can only preform a few tasks that the other high positions can.
Current Officer(s); n/a

Ladies; This is a rank that only females can hold. They are highly respected females, and if a she-cat can work her way up to this rank, it is considered the highest honor a female could possibly get. They are to make sure the Clan is safe, fed, and spy on enemy Clans.
Current Lady; Lady Avorio, played by Jay

Shanghais; The Skulls elite fighting force, the first to attack and the last to withdrawal. They carry out raids, make sure the Clan is safe, protect the Clan from raids, and protect the young, mothers, and older cats with their lives. They're highly respected and in a time of battle, their word is considered final.
Current Head Shanghai; Garrett, played by Kagome
Current Shanghais; Porie, played by Snow Mercury
Rosencrantz, played by Rosencrantz

[size=11pt][shadow=black,left]THE LAWS --[/shadow][/size]
[size=4pt]space here[/size]
i. The Captain's word is law. Disobedience is equivalent to mutiny.
ii. Loyalty to the Skulls comes before all else, personal problems can and will wait.
iii. Enemies will receive no quarters. They can die or become slaves.
iv. Skulls protect their own, yet there are two exceptions to this rule. If a Skull member has done something to anger an entire group the Skulls will not shelter you any longer, and if a member of the Skulls has done something directly, or indirectly, to hurt or harm the Skulls.
v. Actions have consequences, and a real Skull will man up to his actions and admit to them.
vi. Work before play, duties before pleasure, slacking off is highly frowned upon.
vii. All forms of rape are prohibited. If this law has been broken then your cat will face punishment.
[size=4pt]space here[/size]
[size=11pt][shadow=black,left]THE PUNISHMENTS --[/shadow][/size]
[size=4pt]space here[/size]
Execution; Greatest punishment of all, few actions will merit this. A cat can face execution if they have started an uprising, attacked a high position, directly disobeyed the captain/first mate, killed another Skulls without good reason, jeopardized relations with allies or fellow anti-clans, or done anything else that would be considered mutiny.

Exile; Second greatest punishment. The degree of exile may vary depending on what crime was committed. If a cat has angered another group, their "exile" could simply be being handed off and left at the discretion of the angered group. If your cat has directly disobeyed an Apothecary, Officer, or Shanghai, proved cowardly in war, harmed a Deckhand or Swabbie, or jeopardized peace with an ally, they can be exiled.

Physical Punishment; This punishment comes in many forms. It can range anywhere from a sound cuff, being clawed by Ao Shin (but it's more likely that his deputy would do this), and serving as target practice for eager Deckhands. Any wounds inflicted through this type of punishment may, and will not, be treated by an Apothecary; Unless the wound becomes infected of life-threatening in any way. If your cat has raped a she-cat, harmed a mother, harmed an ally of the Skulls w/o cause, left the territory without permission, ignored their duties, or has spoken disrespectfully to a high position they are at risk of being physically punished, and their punishment will be determined by the nearest high position.

Loss of Privileges; This is a punishment inflicted for minor infractions, and will vary widely depending on the crime and who committed it. You may lose one or two privileges, or you'll be thrown into the brig for a night or two. If your cat has endangered a fellow Skull, participated in disorderly conduct, or done something generally stupid they are at risk of earning themselves a loss of their privileges.

Warning; A warning is simple a verbal reprimanding from a high position towards a cat who has done something less than good, but not quite serious enough to earn a more tangible punishment. If your cat chooses to ignore a verbal warning, the punishment will immediately be raised by one. Warnings are extremely subjective and depend a great deal on which high position is warning your cat. They may vary from a vicious tirade, to a "please don't do that, or one might not be given at all. If your cat has bothered a high position, acted verbally abusive without cause, or acted in a suspicious manner, they may be at risk for a warning.

[size=11pt][shadow=black,left]THE TERRITORY --[/shadow][/size]
[size=4pt]space here[/size]
[size=8]Main Camp; is a beached pirate ship. It's large enough to comfortably house all of the Skulls, and if you want more privacy, you can dig a den in the grassy dunes just outside the ship. The ship is high enough on the beach to where only the highest and strongest storm tides would reach it, and only the hold has really ever been flooded. Only one of the three masts is still standing, and it has a small, tattered, skull-and-cross-bones ( Jolly Roger ) flag just above the crow's nest.

Captain/First Mate's Quarters; are a two room suite just below the deck, and located approximately amidships. One room is for the captain, the other is for the first mate as well as anyone they choose to share the suite with such as she-cats, kits, etc. The other room serves as a luxury den for the officers.

Apothecary Quarters; are simply in the aft, just by the tiller. The herbs are stored here and there, and there are quite a few spots for patients to rest in.

Shanghai Quarters; The Shanghais have a comfortably large den situated just outside of the ship. A large lifeboat is overturned, and there is a large hollow underneath with plenty of room for everyone. Blankets line the bottom and the gently sloping sides to make a very nice, snug sleeping place.

Crew's Quarters; The Crew and the Wenches have the main deck all to themselves. Part of it is sheltered by a fallen mast and canvas sail. Members are free to den up wherever they please – the deck is covered with boxes and barrels, and there are plenty of nooks and crannies.

Deckhand's Quarters; The Deckhands have the large storage room just under the Captain’s Quarters. It’s full of old boxes and crates, with the remains of a rich cargo strewn here and there. Silk and velvet line some of the boxes, and there are jewels and jewelry heaped in piles.

Deckswabber's Quarters; The Swabbies and their mothers have a room just under the gun deck. Originally purposed for the keeping of wealthy hostages, it is quite comfortable and well-protected.

Loot's Quarters; The Loots have one half of the hold to themselves – the half that isn’t covered with fallen timbers and strewn with wreckage. They can make themselves somewhat comfortable among the boxes and crates which once contained the less valuable items.

Brig; The Brig is in the half of the hold not occupied by the Loots. There’s one spot in particular which is inaccessible without assistance, where prisoners of all sorts can be conveniently
Crow's Nest; Falling apart but still useful, the Crow’s Nest sits perched atop the single remaining mast. It is accessible via the still usable rigging, if one has the nerve to climb so high.

Beach; The beach is a very curious place. The part closest to the pirate ship, for about half a mile on either side, is comprised of sandy dunes which lead sharply and then gently down to a sheltered cove. Further along, the beach becomes strewn with rocks of various sizes and large logs which are moved by every tide. The bleached skeleton of a small whale can be found if one walks far enough. The ocean outside of the cove is quite rough and prone to riptides and sneaker waves.

Land; There is a creek that feeds into the ocean a hundred yards or so from the ship. Around the creek is a comfortably lush meadow, full of small rodents and coastal birds. Further back from the ocean is a forest of salt pines, in which some larger wildlife can be found.
