Came across two lovely twins workin' fer the Stormrider, an' they convinced me ta lead 'em on an expedition ta retrieve some kegs o' rum from a sunken ship near Theramore. I ne'er thought ta see such a pair! Pretty as peaches an' not afraid ta get themselves all wet when the goin's rough. They did'na whine about the murky waters or the nasty feckers livin' there, fightin' alongside an' urgin' me deeper inta the bowels o' the vessel. We found what we were lookin' fer, an' hauled the damn kegs up ta shore.
Fer me payment, I was given a bottle o' fine rum, but I went an' told 'em instead ta meet me on the morrow at the tavern, bringin' the drink wi' 'em ta share. I'm lookin' forward ta the sweet lassies, Azianna an' Kitianna, more'n the rum! Shows how long I been wi'out good company, an' ye ne'er know what good company'll lead ta, heheh, 'specially affer a mug or ten.
Meetin' the Capt'n an' More

Well, now, been a few days since I found the time ta write in this forsaken ol' tome. Jus' a little while back, I went ta meet the capt'n wi' Angellika an' Anna. The bastard has it in fer me, what wi' pushin' me o'erboard affer spewin' me guts out in competition wi' Deficon, some ale guzzlin' death knight. Har! The fecker puked on the next mug, an' me belly was already filled wi' ale from Brewfest.
Och, an' that Darkson may work me ta the bone, but I'm goin' ta show the lassies a Dwarf's stamina below deck in me spare time. I been catchin' the Quartermaster glancin' o'er wi' a teasin' eye, an' I already seen Anna's fiery side. The one lass I did'na find again 'til tonight, Azri, be so fine, an' I dun think she even knows it! I got a cravin' fer what's under her tail. I also wonder where that sweet Cascade be.
Afore this shot o' slammer burns me britches off, I been promoted ta Deckhand, an' I'm trainin' fer cannon duty. Heheh, jus' wait, I'll be loadin' iron balls an' peggin' me targets wi' keen shots, soon enough. I got Anna lendin' a hand, an' me rate o' fire be increasin' every day wi' her guidance.
Feckin' Hell

Ye canna even guess how feckin' stiff I be affer all that flirtin' last night. Heheheh, I bet the Quartermaster has a thing fer me under all that leather 'o hers, an' I know me favorite Draenei was'na bumpin' hips wi' me fer nothin'. Och, an' the new lass, hot as a day in them Stranglethorn jungles, an' I bet as humid! 'Course, I know her from me old group, an' she's no less 'o a tease now, damn her. She be the latest 'o our growin' crew on the Stormrider, bless her sturdy mast an' swift sails. I talked wi' Angellika about the cannons, an' I'm prepared ta take command 'o them, if'n I have a crew ta man an' fire me guns. Azri an' Anna'll both do fine fer such a dirty job, as I know they're tough lasses that won't buckle under pressure.
Enlisted fer the Stormrider Corsairs

Jus' got through signin' meself up wi' the Stormrider Corsairs! Azri took me ta their secret cove, an' that flirt 'o a Quartermaster, Angellika, collared me like some dog! I could feel the magic findin' its way ta me neck an' turnin' ta iron. Har! I thought she'd have bit me head off affer showin' up late. Guess it was a stroke 'o luck, else she was sufficiently impressed wi' me ta forgive it. She ordered me an' Azri ta find some Draenei lass by the name 'o Cascade, an' we found her o'er in some cave. A pretty one, she be, an' sweet as a melon. I can see why the captain'd take a liking ta her, an' I consider her me friend now.
Me travels an' trials. What the feck else'd it be? Sit down wi' a pint 'o Thunderbrew, if ye e'er come across me chapters. I guarantee ye, it'll be filled wi' adventure 'til me untimely death!

Description: Angellika surveyed the crew members carefully. Glodd was paying too much attention to the ladies. Azrielis was eyeing the big guns on the deck. And the newcomer -- Annamarie -- just seemed awestruck.
Description: Quartermaster Angellika looked the dwarf up and down, deciding what to make of him. Would he fit in? Would he obey orders? She decided to test Glodd. \"Dwarf, kill that deckhand in the corridor.\"
Hey, I read your journal and it was really catchy! It looks like you and the Stormrider gang have been off of here for some months, but I hope you all write again!
Feedback from Glodd: Aye, Glod's been pearl divin' off the coast o' Stranglethorn, taking a break from all of his adventuring for a spell, aside from fending off them damn Bloodsail bastards. Perhaps he will sail with the Stormriders once more. He had better do so afore his beard greys. Thanks for the feedback!
Hey, Glodd! I'm looking forward to more RP with you and the rest of the crew tonight. I uploaded two screenshots with you in them today -- one is of all of us flying over Arathi Highlands and the other is of us all on deck of the Stormrider. Do visit and tag them! See you tonight ... Angellika will have her scythe.
But seriously -- lovin' your journal entries. Today's made me grin from ear to ear.
Feedback from Glodd: Now you have me grinning, hehe. I'm pleased that the journal entries are receiving such an enthusiastic response, and I'll continue to write them after every lengthy roleplay encounter. Oh, and Glodd has his eyes resting on more than Angellika's flaming scythe. ;P
LOVE your journal entry today! Oh, I tweaked Glodd's character portait a bit to erase the crop lines and sharpen Glodd's face, then re-uploaded it. But if you preferred the old one, just let me know and I'll put it back.
Feedback from Glodd: Thank you, Em. I hoped you would like it, hehe. Also, I appreciate the character portrait improvement.
