Atha'an Miere / Sea Folk - RP Ideas, New Characters, Anyone?

[Jagen Sedai]

I wish to come up with a list of RP ideas for Atha'an Miere, and also ask others if they would be interested in playing. I would do my best to lead some threads so the Sea Folk remain active, simply because I love them and think they're underutilized.

 

I do not have a character made yet, but I'm either going for a Sailmistress or a Windfinder. Either way, I think anyone interested in playing a Sea Folk must, by necessity, be part of the same crew. I have more interest in playing a Sailmistress than anyone else, or very possibly the Cargomaster if someone else wants to play the Sailmistress (or they may, again by necessity, be NSWs).

 

Some ideas I have so far to hopefully spark interest:

• While moving from Tremalking to the Mainland there is a run-in with the Seanchan; battle ensues.
• Word reaches the Sea Folk ship that a pirate ship sunk just south of Toman Head, and it may have been laden with stolen (and expensive!) goods from Tarabon on their way to Arad Doman.
• Soon after picking up a shipment of goods from Ebou Dar, the Windfinder discovers she can sense the Source but cannot touch it. As they begin to investigate, to make matters worse, a pirate ship waylays the Sea Folk...
• The Wavemistress of a clan comes aboard the ship and informs the Sailmistress she must be taken upriver to Maerone, Cairhein's biggest port, to meet with the Coramoor. It'll be quite an experience for the crew to be so far inland!
• Something involving an Aes Sedai

 

Let me know some thoughts!!

i got a windfinder, but she was always just a minor char too me so someone to do something with when i had avaliable time, and think she had a boat and crew she was part of, but can work for when wanting to do meet and greet rp's between different boats.

That would be cool ?  I don't officially have any Sea Folk characters but they're my favorite people in the books. Living on a ship? Ocean all the time? Heck yeah!!

 

I really got to come up with a good concept for a Sailmistress. Or Wavemistress, if we can play those. I'd probably have to work my way up.

 

What is nice, I think, is if we were to start right  around when the Stone falls, and work our way forward in the timeline from there.

Hm well I will have to think of a character concept for my Sea Folk lady then--a Sailmistress for sure but that is all I have right now.
