Zain points his Flintlock at Blacksunder, it was a little like a Mexican Standoff, I'm trying to get her out of harm's way. These are Pirate Hunters here. For some reason, pirates don't like Pirate Hunters. Zain lets go of Havia's arm, instead holding out his hand, Come on, Miss Lee. Let's get you out of here. Zain still had his pistol trained on Blacksunder, watching for any suspicious movements

Name: Liam Illander Pirate name: Bloodlock Profession: Bounty Hunter (Captain of his own ship, but is hired by pirates) Ship name: The Reaper Weapons: A pair of crafted black metal revolvers with sword blades protruding from under the extended barrel, with more obtuse grip to allow easy transition between gun and sword fights. Two black metal daggers and an array of small throwing knives. Ship weapons: No cannons to reduce weight to allow for increased speed and allowance for battering ram, but two small, moveable cannons on either side to allow for less damaging but more accurate shots. Appearance: Long black jacket with golden buttons down to thighs, with a metal skull mask shrouding the eyes and nose, with a hood that covers head and casts a shadow onto the rest of the tanned, white face. Skinny black trousers with lose fabric around the joints to allow for manoeuvrability and pristine black leather boots with small metal studs along the sole for grip and damage. A blood red low-collared shirt is worn under the rarely buttoned jacket with a black metal skull necklace hanging in front of it. Fingerless gloves are worn alongside a black leather utility belt with a skull in the centre, with pouches for throwing knives either side of it, and two bottomless scabbards opposite each other on the hip. Two black bandoleers are fastened against his chest with golden braces where they meet, and the two daggers at either shoulder. Ship Appearance and type: A modified Schooner, The Reaper is a relatively small but nippy black wood ship with red markings along the siding. The battering ram is small, but has a large metal blade going vertical across it for great impact damage, with a large metal skull atop it. Short bio and appearance:
The infamous Captain Bloodlock. A bounty hunter is rare in these seas. Most pirates own a ship for pride and money, this one, however, seems to be in it for the kill. Word of his prowess is not spread through the survivors of his attacks, for the few that do live are too terrified to talk of him. No, instead, he has become a feared legend amongst the pirates, who will happily shell out loot for his brutal services. Very few pirates try to trick him any more, as it usually involves the slaughtering of their crew. He is quite the mysterious pirate, Bloodlock. Many believe him to be from England due to his stature and colour, but nobody truly knows. He just rides across the storms at night, flinching at nothing, not even the thunderbolts that strike the water next to him. He is cruel, calculating and some might even say magnificent, but one thing is for sure, he will kill anyone and anything without hesitation.

From where he was on the pier, Curlybeard drew both of his pistols, aiming at Zain's head and firing both at him, one fater the other. He hoped that it would hit Zain, and if it missed, set off his instinctive reaction and shoot Blacksunder, hopefully killing him instead. If he was lucky, the first shot would miss and get Zain to shoot at Blacksunder, and then the second shot to kill Zain afterwards, taking two pirates out of the equation. Of course if both bullets missed Zain, there was a chance Havia would get nailed by one of them. As for his schooner, it hadn't docked properly yet, meaning that he still had a good shot at escape because all they needed to do was undo only a few things.

Zain looks around and instinctively gets down when he hears the bullet fire, he looks at the shell that landed beside him, That's not Blunderbuss ammo. Who? Zain looks around and spots a pirate with his pistol out HEY YOU! Zain pulls the rifle off his back, a sharpshooter flintlock musket which he hand engineered to shoot and reload faster and takes aim DID YOU JUST FIRE AT ME? THE EAGLE OF THE SEAS? Zain cocks the musket

The light glinted off of the black metal skull adorned by the tanned, pristine white skinned legend that stared across the small settlement, specifically at the tavern, where curious islanders began to creep towards after the screams and gunshots echoed around. Liam looked down, the harsh, grey waves to one side of the cliff he was perched upon, and a 15 metre drop onto a roof on the other. The bounty hunter stood up from his crouch and took a few step backs, securing his multitude of hand-crafted weapons in place as his jacket fluttered in the wind. He pushed his right leg back, crooking his left, and launched himself forwards. The lush, green grass of the Nassau island was crushed under Liam's studded boots as he rocketed himself forwards, taking but two long strides to reach the cliff edge, where, on his compressed left leg, he flung himself majestically into the air, his jacket seemingly hovering behind am as he meet equilibrium - almost weightlessness - before he finally started to descend, flecks of luscious blond hair appearing from his hood that started to lift up slightly. He had almost reached the roof of the small shack when he started to roll forwards, hands pressing against the surface to relieve strain from his neck as he rolled back onto his feet, once again jumping upwards but only to a drop of about 3 metres to which he landed perfectly on his feet, a small cloud of dust arriving from where his feet connected with the ground. He kept all his momentum and sprinted forwards, dodging in and out of civilians as he made a sharp turn round the dusty streets as he neared the entrance to the bar, where gunshots could be heard - a trickle of blood could be seen at the entrance. Liam still hadn't slowed down as he drew his gun swords, flicking them round in his hands as he entered through the door, quickly swinging them round and extending his arms as he grinded to a halt - the weapons aimed either side of him, one at Curleybeard, the other at The Eagle of the Sea. He wasn't even out of breath: no heavy breathing, no stress in his legs, and his face was still an emotionless and overcast plate, looking at neither of the two pirates he was aiming at.

Zain still had his pistol trained on Blacksunder, watching for any suspicious movements The gun from behind the bar was safely tucked behind the liner of her dress, which proved to be little cover. Havia grew pretty furious, angry how this man decided she was to young to take care of herself. "You can let me go!" She said angrily, attempting to rip her arm from this man's grip. She knew it was a battle she wouldn't win, but it was worth a chance. "Of course you're too ignorant to tell, but I can fend for myself."

Havia's eyes widened into circles, her light green eyes showing a small shadow of fear. Although she wouldn't admit it, Havia was quite scared. The last thing she wanted was to be dragged around in a large pirate battle, and be dragged out to sea. No, that wasn't going to happen. Havia opened her mouth, and looked at the other pirate that had intervened. She looked at him pleadingly, as if to say 'help me'.

Now. You can either come with me to The Phoenix and we can get you out of here, out of harm's way, or you can stay here and be cut down by a hunter, or thrown in a Jamaican Prison. Have you ever seen the inside of a Jamaican Prison, Miss Lee? Zain looks around for any more pirate hunters and shoots one through the head Well?

((I'm pretty sure he let go of your arm already Astrinal))
Blacksunder pointed his Dragon Blunderbuss at the newcomer, the tavern becoming too crowded for his liking. The woman running the bar was definitely starting to lose composure under the stress of the situation, and having such an unpredictable factor in his midst was not going to help anyone. Making sure her arm was released, he spoke to her.
"Run. Don't go further inland, they'll expect that and round up anyone heading that way on suspicion alone. Head for the docks and stay low until it blows over, if anyone asks, you were waitung for your husband at the docks when everything escalated. Go!"
Blacksunder manoeuvred his way back from the group, keeping his weapons trained on anyone who moved or had a weapon pointed at him. With his Dragon, he could probably take them all out in one shot, so pulling back was his best bet. At least that was what he was try to make everyone believe as he slowly got closer to the nearby window.
"Now, love to stay and chat, but I have an appointment that hasn't been shot so far. Farewell."
Instantly, Blacksunder stabbed through the window with his Lochaber Axe, using the hook to grab onto the edge and pull himself forwards, out of the window and to the ground below. Rolling up, he instantly made do the dense foliage, disappearing from view as he circled back, avoiding the town entirely and making his way to the docks. His crew knew to head straight for the ship in the event of an attack, but it would take time to get her ready to sail. For now his best choice would be to stay out of sight until he reached the Sepulchral Bell and could set off.

With whatever moments of commands she was given, Havia took off running and exited through the back door, and making her way down the street towards the harbor. Havia however didn't follow all the way through, which she slipped into an alley and slipped into a wooden bulkhead door. Above the door read 'Silverluck Blacksmith', indicating it was a small buisness. The room was hot, which Havia wipped her forehead as she secured the rest of the building. This place, the Blacksmith store, belonged to her father. The room was dark, but there was enough light to guide her up the stairs and onto the second floor. Then, with a gun and dagger she had taken from the previous floor, Havia slipped into the hallway closet and closed the wooden doors behind her. This, obviously, indicated she was hiding.

Zain stabs one of his swords through a Hunter's head. Now where's she gone? Zain spots a whole squad of Hunters walking into Nassau, He wasn't to far away from The Phoenix MORTARS NOW! After a short pause, while The Phoenix's crew loaded the Mortar, the squad was bombed out of existence. Zain noticed that a Blacksmith's store had been partially bombed, he shrugged and ran off (*Trollface*)

((I'm pretty sure a brand new guy, in a metal mask with twin gun swords running in and pointing them at the two main men in the middle of a gun fight might grab some attention, especially if there's some idea of who he is considering he's at least somewhat infamous... just saying))

Havia kicked at the closet door, attempting to reopen it. The house had fallen, due to the god damn pirates. Now, she was imprisoned in her hiding place. Through one of the splintered cracks in the door, she could see the night sky. And, the fight in the harbor. Havia wasn't one for strength, but did know how to escape sticky situations. But nothing like this.
Finally, the door broke underneath her foot, which the door broke off it's hinges and into the wreckage. The entire second floor was destroyed, leaving the rest of the building intacted. IN surprise, Havia rushed through the wreckage to get downstairs.

Zain was fighting like a whirling devil, You attack my home? You die. Zain decapitates another one and sees a couple of hunters make a dash for the Blacksmith, which had been partially destroyed, Cowards. Hiding. I'll go back for them later, it's not like anyone's in there. Zain pulls out his rifle and stabs the bladed tip into a Hunter FIRE MORTAR ON THAT SHIP... ALSO CRIPPLE THE SCHOONER. A hunter is fired upon by mortars, while the Puckle Guns shoot out the mast of The Black Pegasus I'm going to KILL that pirate, stupid curly-bearded freak.

((I guess I'll edit my post then *rolls eyes* And doesn't your character seem a bit OP with none of these Pirate Hunters a) Attacking or b) defending in any way, shape or form? It just seems illogical from a narrative stand point that you're not including non-essential characters' roles in any of your posts, as if only the RPers matter - 5 people in amongst a world of NPCs - when everyone else's actions matter too. You may decapitate them, but weren't they shooting or slicing at you whilst you were talking? Weren't they putting up a blade to defend? And Is it too much to ask to read just a paragraph or two of text to understand my character's standpoint and also what I'm saying in the OOC because you're clearly ignoring me and that's just rude!))

(Gun Swords didn't exist in those times, I'm afraid. You can have Pistols and/or guns, not both. Calm down btw. I'm sorry about the gun-swords but I like historical accuracy) Zain looked at the newcomer Come to join the fight, have you? I'm Zain Eagle. Now shall we kill these fools? Zain said, staring at Liam
