It is 1675. You are on the merchant ship Expedition
in the Mediterranean sea, off the coast of Greece. The ship has hit an out
cropping of rock and has a hole it is not large and we are not taking on too
much water but we might not make it to shore if we hit bad weather. The Captain
and his officers must make a choice to one try to make it to Rhoades and the
safe harbor there or go to nearest port of Thebes, which is infested with
pirates and risk loosing all the cargo.
To make the situation worse there have been rumors of mutiny throughout
the ship. Those in favor of mutiny have not spoken out, because the penalty is
death by being tossed overboard and dragged underneath the ship, being torn
apart by the sharp barnacles on the bottom of the ship. You will each be
assigned a role, from the Captain to cabin boy, and will be notified whether or
not you are in favor of mutiny. You will not know what opinions others have.
The rebels will try and assemble and elect a leader to overthrow the hierarchy.
The Captain will try to squelch the mutiny. The ship will be landing in Greece
soon, and there the captain will execute the entire crew, using his authority,
because he cannot trust anybody. Thus you have taken a side, since this is the
only way that you may survive. You have an hour.
Captain – your role is to safely get the goods and
crew to harbor if you try to make it to Rhoades you may loose everything but if
you go to Thebes you may loose all of your goods and make the owners of the
ship and merchandise mad. You also need to keep in power and don’t let the
majority of the crew turn against you because you could be killed.
First mate- you are good friends with the captain
and have a lot invested in this trip your entire life savings is on board and
you don’t want to loose it or have it stolen. Stand with the captain no matter
what
Second mate – you don’t really like the captain you
think that she was not very smart is getting the ship too close to land and
putting a whole in the ship. If given the chance you would gladly rule that the
captain is unfit to lead and you should lead. You don’t really care if you go
to Thebes or Rhoades.
Navigator – you plot the course and make sure we
get there safely. The crash was kind of your fault and you would be happy to
blame it on the captain so that you don’t loose your job or get killed. Your
main goal however is to just stay alive.
Cook – you love the captain and don’t really want
to mutiny but you also are kind of timid and don’t want to make a stir.
Gunner – The captain saved your life a few years
ago and you feel like you have to be loyal to the captain to pay back the debt
you owe her.
Shipwright – you are the head man on the ship that
make sure everything is working you think the captain is an not wise and it
trying to get you all killed you would rather have the first mate in charge. If
the captain decided to try to make it to Rhoades you will mutiny for sure.
Helmsman – you steer the ship and you think the
captain is not wise and it trying to get you all killed you would rather have
the first mate in charge. If the captain decided to try to make it to Rhoades
you will mutiny for sure.
Look out – you don’t really care to much but you
don’t want to go to Thebes because you are a wanted woman there and if the
captain decides to go to thebes you will revolt
Rigger – you just want to stay alive you have a
family and want to make it home safely. You are to happy that the captain hit a
rock and was foolish so if it looks like the captain is going to loose join
everyone else.
Cabin boy – people don’t think that really matter
because you are just the cabin boy but you are more like a spy because you get
all of the information from people. You know everything that is going on. Your
Goal is to stay alive and get more power however you can weather that means
staying with the Captain or picking a new captain.
Quartermaster – You love the captain because she
got you this job and you are making tons of money. If she gets kicked out of
power you loose your job
Blacksmith – you hate the captain she is not very
nice to you. You want to mutiny and you have gun powder stored up and weapons
to give to the people who will join you.
Able Seaman – you are sick of the captain and want
her gone. She has not treated you well and you don’t like how the ship got a
hole
