Zain was steering his Frigate, The Phoenix, a fine vessel indeed. Decked out with all the latest weapons that can be plundered and he had one of the finest ship crews on the Seven Seas. He steered his ship towards Nassau, hoping to repair his ship after a mornings ship boarding and refill his and his ship's ammo Let's have a Shanty lads! he calls and his crew bursts into song "The Drunken Sailor" a favourite of his. He was hoping to buy some new pistols when he gets back to his home island, he just hoped he didn't run into any... obsticles

The Large black Man'O'War crashed against the harsh waves. The waves slapped against the ship like pelicans against fish. The Salt water soaked the sides of the ship and then the ship dipped downwards slightly and then upwards water splashing from behind the figurehead. Darn yelled out commands at his crew.
Come on, Hurry It up....We gotta deliver this plunder to Nassau.....and then we get RUM!
The ship continued through the wild sea like a fish on land without any water. The crew began to sing a shanty about Rum and gold. The sails waved sharply in the harsh wind causing the ship to slow a while before increasing. Darn hoped to buy a new shotgun once he got into Nassau but he doubted it......since shotguns were rare.

"Man'o War Cap'n!" Those words sent chills down Zain's spine, one of the only sentences that could, Slow her down to Half-Sail, what flag is it flying? "Black Flag sir" Zain relaxed a little Bring her back up to full lads, I don't think she'll attack us. Let's get our gold back to Nassau and drink heartily, Shanty. The crew bursts into song once more

Aye, captain frigate....with a black flag
Darn keeps his eyes ahead and then finally responds and he pulls a hand through his black hair, slicking it back. He sets his hand back onto the wheel and continues to pilot the ship.
Aye, it's fine.....just continue on but be ready encase they are english with a black flag.
The sails wave again in the brisk and sharp wind causing the sails to flail around like a fish out of water. Dolphins jump alongside the left side of the ship. In the middle of the ship a large great-white is being butchered up and it will soon be cooked. Darn grabs a bottle of rum near him and then drinks it half way before stopping him and putting it back on the crate by him.

"The Bell has been raised, from it's watery grave.
Can you hear it's Sepulchral tone?
A call to all.
Pay heed the squall.
And turn your sail towards home." - an excerpt from a Sea Shanty surrounding the myth of the Sepulchral Bell Name: Jonas Thompson Pirate name: Captain Blacksunder Profession: Captain Ship name: Sepulchral Bell Weapons:-Lochaber Axe:  -"Dragon" 1-handed Blunderbuss:  Ship weapons: 48 Broadside Cannons (24 each side), 2 Frontal Cannons. Steel Ram, Double Mortars, 4 Swivel Guns (2 each side), Fire Barrels. Appearance: Tall, muscular, clean shaven, long brown hair flowing messily behind him. Always seen wearing a jet black trenchcoat with gold trim and buttons, always unbuttoned. Brown pants, black boots, dark red shirt, Faded black tricorn. Ship Appearance and type: Large Man o' War type ship. 3 decks, 8 cannons on either side of each deck. colours are a faded dark grey and brown with dark red detailing. Light grey sails, flag is a skull with two crossed anchors, and a Kraken splayed out beneath it. Massive engraved bell on deck. Figurehead is this:  Short bio and appearance: Blacksunder began work in the Royal Navy as a swabbie, but soon got bored of this life and took to piracy for fame and fortune. A master of mind games, Blacksunder took advantage of the superstitious nature of the common pirate and spun tales to garner mystique and terror around his ship. The most common superstitions are that the Sepulchral Bell is in fact an old ship risen from the depths to terrorize unwary sailors, the enormous bell on the deck of his ship is rumoured to summon squalls and bring bad omens to all who hear it's ring. Using this aura of fear, Blacksunder has raided convoys and even fellow pirates when profitable all across the Caribbean Islands, recently seen in the vicinity of Nassau...

Silently, near the island of Nassau, The Sepulchral Bell glided into port. For a ship with such a mystique around it, it managed to hide it's approach within the throng of ships rather well, appearing as little more than a mess of rigging and masts to anyone not looking hard enough. As the Man O' War came upon a dock large enough for it, the rhythmic thudding of crewmen leaping out to secure the ship could be heard, running to tie the ship to the dock as the anchor was dropped with a thunderous splash.
The Boarding ramp was dropped as the rest of the crew made their way into the port of Nassau for drink and women, the final figure heading for the quieter bar on the other side of the town. This figure, Lochaber Axe holstered over his back and crafted Dragon Blunderbuss at his hip, was the Captain of the Sepulchral Bell, Captain Blacksunder. Pulling his Tricorn down to shadow his face a little more, Blacksunder continued on his way. No need for any hotshot Bounty Hunters today, he was here for business.

((Wasn't Nassau protected by England? XD))
Night shifts was the equivalent of a nightmare. Cleaning the end surface the bar, the Drunken Siren had little to no buisness. The only customers at this time of night were drunken women and men drinking over their grief. Throwing the dirty rag into the sink behind the counter, Havia ran a small delicate hand through her light brown hair. She and Clenin, who was running a job for the manager. Even though it was illegal for her to stay in the bar by herself, due to some dumb laws, Havia had to take care and hope for the best.
"This'll be an interesting night.." she grumbled to herself.

((My knowledge of Nassau is from Black Flag, and IIRC, it was originally a Pirate town. Plus seeing as its night-time, and rather quiet, I think the Sepulchral Bell could get away with just passing off as a merchant ship or something until they're done and away.))
The Drunken Siren was soon greeted by a new customer. Blacksunder entered the establishment without a word, heavy footsteps against the wood as he walked to one of the empty tables in the corner. Reaching for his axe, Blacksunder unclipped it's holster, placing the weapon on the floor with the bottom of the blade hooking onto the table.
Sitting next to his weapon, in perfect position to grab it quickly, Blacksunder waited. His contact was to be here soon, and so long as no-one started any problems. There only seemed to be one woman tending the bar, something illegal last he checked, not that he was a great follower of the law. For now, he merely resigned to sitting, waiting for the contact to arrive and hoing nothing got out of hand.
