This page is dedicated to the Master and Commander Role Playing Game.  (RPG)  In this game you can be any historical, original, or fictional character as long as he or she was alive during 1805, when the movie Master and Commander takes place.  They also have to be sensible -- characters should all be part of the time period, be well rounded, and feel like they fit in.

The main conventions to this board:  There are two ships.  Commodore Aubrey and his friend Dr. Maturin are aboard The Boadicea.  The main ship, The Surprise, is Captained by Tom Pullings, his first Lt. is a man named Stephen Easton, who seems to have his own sinister plans for the Surprise and her crew.

The role plays verge between as historically accurate as possible to the extremely silly.   We often get together for real time MSN plays, which are always fun.  We are a warm and friendly bunch, so please, feel free to come aboard!
