Sup, guys. o/ Here's what we've got so far as a result of my organization
thread on the last mod post.
As always, keep in mind that this is completely optional. The point of this is to give everyone a little bit of structure, and make things more fun! There will be plenty of opportunities to interact with each other, so adding your character to one of these lists does not mean they won't ever see people in the other groups. (Everyone starts off on the main ship, for example, and they'll meet up again on the island. And don't forget the journals!) If you'd rather not sign up, that's cool, but I think it'd be pretty awesome if you did!

First things first! The draft begins on the morning of August 25th. That means that there would have been a strategy meeting held ICly on August 24th. (Announced by Caesar over the journals in the morning, with the meeting being held in the afternoon.) Due to time constraints, this is to be assumed. During this meeting, they'd discuss the mission and their objective, as well as which group each character falls into, and other typical battle-related advice (with emphasis on
naval warfare for the inexperienced). They'd also choose and meet their captains here. Even with a specific goal, Caesar will also emphasize the importance of keeping casualties to a minimum. To him, this is far more important than some cargo.
If your character wouldn't attend this meeting for whatever reason, that's cool-Caesar would sort things out with them once they're on the ship. If you really want to thread something out with Caesar during this meeting or some other time before the draft, he has an appointments post up, and I'll be hitting up the pre-draft log in a bit, so we can work something out. o/

[Note: Those in the run for a spot as captain are listed in these spots tentatively. Once the poll results are announced, their positions on each ship are likely to change (as well as those whose position depends on the captain). If this is relevant to you, please keep an eye out for that!
Also, I only listed people as healers/doctors/noncombatants if it was specifically mentioned. Some people didn't mention it, and I don't want to assume, haha. :|; Let me know if you want me to add something like that to your character's name!]
These lists detail how the draftees will be divided up among the three ships. Remember that the defensive forces on the main cargo ship are defending both the noncombatants and the cargo that the Third Party is after, so they're going to see a lot of action, too!
Once they arrive on the island, both offensive groups will work together to protect the cargo from the Third Party soldiers. A majority of the defensive group will stick around and help them out, while the rest will protect noncombatants. They'll head to the medical center beyond the beach, where they can help out with carrying supplies, cooking, keeping watch, and tending to the wounded. The Third Party usually won't attack at night, so there may be quite a few people here then.
Oh, but the forest is easy to get lost in, right? No problem. That's why we have...

These guys will use their special skills to explore the surrounding areas and relay information back to your genius strategist and those among the other groups. With their help, everyone will have a better idea of what they're dealing with.
Speaking of special skills, I encourage you guys to take a look at the threads
here! There are a lot of different kinds of characters being drafted, and some of them have some very interesting skills. Check it out so you can make the most of them!
Questions, comments, concerns? Haven't signed up yet? Did I make a mistake, or do you want your character moved? Let me know here! If you'd like to talk privately, I am also available through AIM (flowing runes), or LJ PM.
Also, feel free to use this post for additional plotting. Have fun!
