Okay! You totally don't have to repost your characters if you have already posted them; I just feel like adding my new ones.
Huge practice for my story, which is why the characters are like they are.

Huge practice for my story, which is why the characters are like they are.
Yami's Main Characters
Name: Ashley Emmerich
Nicknames: Ash, by Antonio (and sometimes Alondra). Ashley by everyone else.
Title: Lord Emmerich
Age: Twenty-three.
Gender: Male
Race: He speaks German, and is Austrian.
Current Missions: Avoid the pirates, like most people.
Occupation: One of the richer men, where he came from he was originally a lord. Though he moved across seas, he still retained that title. He's an aristocrat through-and-through.
Relations: His former wife, Elizabeth; Blake, the woman he now loves; Antonio, his childhood friend; Volker, his unseen childhood friend; others.
Appearance: See picture.
Personality: Well-spoken and highly educated, he was more aloof before moving to the Caribbean. Tends to devote more time to his hobbies than actual work. Bad sense of direction. Extremely frugal.
History: Born in Austria, Ashley is rumoured to be the only son of a rich man, but according to him, he spent a lot of time in Spain with Antonio and his friend from the lower class, Volker. After an unnamed incident, he left Europe and travelled across seas. He had originally moved to Boston, where he met (or, rather, was reunited with) his former wife, Elizabeth. When they moved to this town and discovered it to be an almost literal hellhole, at least in terms of the pirates, they divorced, still affectionate towards one another, but strictly platonic. A year after that, Ashley was brought aboard a pirate ship, where he met the brother-sister pirates Charlie and Blake, respectively. They proceeded to jump ship at first port, somewhere in Greece, before making their way to Spain, and to the home of Ashley's childhood friend, Antonio.
Other: Suffered from temporary blindness as a result from an infection. Has a scar stretching across the palm of his right hand, and no longer has full mobility of it, though he's working to regain it.
Quote: "All right."
Song:
Name: Antonio Carriedo
Nicknames: Antony and Tony, but they are rarely (if ever) used.
Title: Lord-Admiral Antonio Fernandez Carriedo of Spain
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Race: Spanish
Current Missions: Get everyone to Dalian.
Occupation: Captain; Lord.
Relations: Ashley, his childhood best friend; Alondra, his sister; Carlos, his niece; Arthur, his friend-turned-ally; others.
Appearance: Brown hair, green eyes, and olive-toned skin.
Personality: Generally very cheery and easy-going, with a permanent smile and laugh. However, he has a second personality, something only his closest friends no about - for he refuses to believe it. He also has a more serious side to him.
History: Antonio was best friends with Ashley, and both were acquainted with Jean, Sebastian, Ludwig, and Arthur as children. They grew up together, and remain close friends, even though Ashley had vanished from Europe for nae on five years.
Other: He's less bisexual and more... believes in love when he sees it. He's not confined to any one gender, class, or race.
Quote: "Relax, mi amigo!"
Song:
Name: Alondra-Maria Weilschmidt
Nicknames: Lonny by Ludwig, though only in private. Used by Antonio when he wants to annoy her.
Title: Lady Weilschmidt
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Race: Spanish
Current Missions: Many, many, many - first and foremost raising her son, and watching over her brother and Ashley, whom she considers her brother.
Occupation: Lady; Wife; Mother
Relations: Ludwig, her husband; Carlos, her son; Antonio, her brother; Ashley, her friend; others.
Appearance: She shares her brother's eyes and skin-tone, though her hair is slightly darker in appearance.
Personality: Sharp-tongued, extremely critical, and often derisive, though that last part doesn't come into check unless she doesn't like you. She can be extremely ill-tempered, as certain things set her off easily, but she is fanatically devoted to her family, whom she often unconsciously includes Ashley (and, by extension, Blake) in.
History: Though Alondra knew Ashley as a child, she wasn't as close to him as Antonio was, especially since she was a woman, three years older than Antonio, and five years older than Ashley. She met Ludwig, the younger brother of Sebastian (Antonio's friend and Ashley's I-barely-put-up-with-you acquaintance), and they fell in love, even though she is six or seven years his senior. She had Carlos when she was twenty-six, Ludwig twenty.
Other: She hates poets. HATES them.
Quote: "That's enough."
Song:
Yami's Pirates - Crew of the Hangman's Noose
Name: Arthur Kelsey
Nicknames: Arthur by his friends, Kelse, Captain Kelsey, 'Bloody pirate!', 'Traitor.'
Title: Captain
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Race: British.
Current Missions: Lose the Navy.
Occupation: Pirate Captain - former English Privateer
Relations: N/A
Appearance: He has shaggy blonde hair and green eyes. He doesn't actually need the eyepatch, but wears it anyway to conceal a scar running across his left eye.
Personality: Cynical, sharp-tongued, and obstinate. When drunk, he changes from a relatively gentleman-like character to a "bitter delinquent."
History: Arthur was the youngest of three: two older brothers and an older sister. He became a privateer for England's ruling family, but later decided that, "hey, why the fuck should I give all this treasure back to England?" He all but tarnished the letter of marque and proceeded to not only retain the wealth he captured from Spanish and French (but mostly Spanish) ships, but he began attacking English ships as well. The English monarchy sent out a reward for his capture, but he fled the Mediterranean after a brutal battle at sea with a Spanish captain by the name of Antonio. Currently, he and the crew of the Hangman's Noose (formerly the St. Mary) are moving silently around the islands and towns, keeping their presence relatively low until the British Navy stops hounding them.
Other: N/A
Quote: "Idiot."
Song:
Name: Sebastian Strauß-Klemens
Nicknames: Alternate last name spelling: Strauss.
Title: First Mate
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Race: Prussian/German.
Current Missions: Like the Captain, he wants to avoid detection by the Navy. However, he has a second primary goal, which is obvious to everyone in the crew, concerning a rather aloof aristocrat back overseas, Richard, who he's enjoyed tormenting since they were young.
Occupation: Pirate.
Relations: His younger brother, who is not part of the crew.
Appearance: Pale, almost-white hair with red-brown eyes.
Personality: Because they were forced to flee from Europe, Sebastian is rather pissed at Arthur, saying that "Volker is going to get up to something if I'm not back to protect Richard! Scheming little Scheiße." Has a rather high opinion of himself.
History: He grew up in Prussia (what is now known as 'East Germany') along with his younger brother, Lionel, and his grandparents. He was really close to his grandfather before leaving to sign up as a privateer, before turning rogue - but really, no one expected anything less of him.
Other: N/A
Quote: "Hahaha! Check that out! I'm so awesome."
Song:
Name: Jean-Francois Renauld
Nicknames: Jean
Title: Navigator
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Race: French.
Current Missions: Pestering the hell out of Arthur.
Occupation: Pirate.
Relations: His half-brother, Matthias.
Appearance: Long, wavy golden-blonde hair usually tied back in a red ribbon, blue eyes, tall.
Personality: He's a bit of a flirt, but when it all comes down to it, even Arthur cannot fault his loyalty to the crew.
History: He and Arthur go back a long, long time, when they first met at a party and got into an argument over whose country was better. Jean proceeded o taunt young Arthur until the boy started beating him up, prompting adults to quickly intervene and for him and Arthur to be escorted out by maids, as they were still children. They've had a deep-seeded rivalry ever since, but are quick to team up if there's a third party involved.
Other: N/A
Quote: "Calm down, mon ami; you're simply overreacting again, non?"
Song:
Name: Wilhelmina St.Claire
Nicknames: Mina. Call her Wilhelmina and die.
Title: Crew member.
Age: Seventeen.
Gender: Female.
Race: Irish.
Current Missions: Obey her captain.
Occupation: Making sarcastic remarks and slacking her duties.
Relations: None.
Appearance: Please refer to picture. She has a scar running down her back.
Personality: Mina can be either foul-tempered or constantly smug, and it's usually the latter. She seems to always be smirking triumphantly over something or other. However, she is very easy to goad into a fight, as she's extremely impulsive, headstrong and prideful. Some would even call her overconfident. Because of this, she never turns down a dare or a chance at gambling when it's offered. Spends a lot of time with Sebastian.
History: Wilhelmina grew up in a poor childrens' orphanage in an Irish village. When she was thirteen the English stormed the shores, taking many people captive and bringing them back to England itself. She existed like until she saw her chance and jumped ship, becoming part of Leif's crew.
Other: Very acrobatic. Bad at card games.
Quote: All right then, you're on. Just you wait, I'll have you regretting this decision!
