Crew Roles

## Captain

**Title holders**
 Tirzo Lapsed
 Tiko Lapsed
 Reality Current

The Captain is the most skilled and respected pirate on the ship. They are chosen by the Crew to man the helm and keep the ship afloat. In addition, they are expected to listen to the Crew's worries and doubts; if the Crew feel that the Captain is unfit, they have the right to mutiny and overthrow them, putting a new Captain in place.

## First Mate

 Masamune Lapsed
 Ludwig Current

The First Mate works directly with the Quartermaster as well as the Captain. They are tasked with overseeing the deck and all of its affairs, dealing more with the Crew than with the ship itself. Like the Quartermaster, they would take over as Captain if the Captain is ill or incapacitated.

## Quartermaster

**Title holders**
 Siravi Current

The Quartermaster works directly with the First Mate as well as the Captain. They are in charge of charting courses and ensuring islands are safe for the Crew to camp out on. In addition, they are in charge of munitions, ship maintenance, and punishments among the Crew. Like the First Mate, they would take over as Captain if the Captain is ill or incapacitated.

## Bowswain

 Rosemary Lapsed
 War-Cry Current
 Ladybird Current
 Jesse Current

As third in command, Bowswains operate under both the First Mate and the Quartermaster. While they assist the latter in keeping checks on ship condition, they primarily work with the First Mate, supervising the deck and monitoring the wellbeing of the Crew. Under the circumstances that the the ship is damaged, they are in charge of repairs. New Bowswains are typically chosen by the three superiors, and are considered to be exemplary individuals in the Crew.

## Surgeons

The Surgeons are viewed as the scum of the seas among the Crew, and often for good reason. Though it's their job to heal the sick and injured on the ship, their methodology is less than desirable, and can lead to some painful remedies. Still, the Surgeons know what they're doing, and seemingly have never lost a patient as a result.

## Nurses

Considered to be the intermediaries between the Surgeons and the Crew, the Nurses are essential to the medical workplace on the ship. While they primarily organize and sanitize the various operating tables, their knowledge of herbal remedies and quick fixes are extensive-- thus, in the heat of a moment, their information is invaluable and could prevent a life from being lost.

## Brigands

The Brigand role is responsible for scouting newly-found islands and ensuring their safety. Brigands work closely with the Quartermaster, helping them plot out maps for the rest of the Crew to follow. Not only do they explore, they also gather materials from islands and load them onto the ship. Brigands generally have an adventurer's spirit, and would use brains rather than brawn to solve a situation.

## Entertainers

The Entertainer role is responsible for exactly as its name suggests: the entertainment of the Crew. They're mostly found in the bar or kitchen, working hard to provide amusement on the open seas. They work as bartenders, cooks, host parties, and games.

## Marauders

The Marauders are the rag-tag bulk of the Crew, responsible for the majority of combat. They serve the ship until death or exile, even the elderly. They also have a responsibility for hunting and somewhat mentoring the Swabbies if they so chose to. Being liked by the Captain and having a solid record can grant you a higher position like the Bowswain.

## Swabbies

Swabbies are the children of the Crew, learning all they can from those older than them; they have no direct mentor, however, occasional seminars are hosted in the ship library for those eager to learn. Their main duty until adulthood is cleaning the deck and training for battles with wooden versions of their preferred weaponry. Once the Captain determines a Swabbie to be ready, they will join the adult ranks as a Brigand, Entertainer, or Marauder.

## Tots

Tots are the youngest of the Crew, not old enough to be left without supervision. They are permitted to watch the Crew's chores, even assist a little; however, they are not permitted near weaponry or the brig. Tots are not allowed to be left by themselves and must be cared for by a responsible adult at all times. They are only allowed to leave the ship to head to the camp when on an island. They are not allowed to have weapons until they are Swabbies.
