''Coming Soon''

'''Theme:''' Barbary Coast Piracy

[[The Harbour]] is the central port for the Colorado Rogues. New recruits are captured (inducted) into slavery (the Step'N'Fetch Program) where they learn the ways of our pirates. If the slaves (Steps) perform well throughout their servitude, they earn the chance at their freedom (Graduation) and choose where they wish to serve in the Fleet, much like Giovanni Dionigi, who was an Italian slave captured by the Barbary pirates, won his freedom, and became Uluj Ali, the Last Supreme Lord of the Barbary Pirates.

==Useful Info For Noobs==

Congratulations!!!!!
You passed the first test.
You found this page.

So you heard the pitch and are interested in becoming a Rogue. This page has the info you need to get you there.

We are a social drinking club with a charity problem and a golden age of piracy theme. As the true philosophical difference between Yarrrrrr and Arrrrrr is still a hotly debated topic the following guidelines and suggestions have been badly translated to plain English.

The first and most important step is for us to get to know you and you to get to know us. Outsiders are generally mocked, pointed at, kicked, poked with sharp things, and eaten, so stop being a stranger.

The way to do this-

1 Look through the Wiki-

You’re already here. This wiki has loads of information showing what we are all about and how we are organized.

2 Get on the Forums-

http://forums.coloradorogues.org/ucp.php?mode=register

All of our events and our primary mode of communication are through our private forums so register asap.

But I have a warning- Your conduct on the Forums will make a huge difference towards being accepted. We expect a level of courtesy toward all our members and the forum rules are strongly enforced. As well as the Terms of Service.

Read the above paragraph again. It’s alright I’ll wait…

3 Come out and play with us-

Throughout the year we have a bunch of events and parties both public and private. On the forums we have a place for upcoming events. Show up to a public event and get involved. If we see you we will remember you. And us remembering you in a positive way that helps a lot toward you being accepted for the Step N Fetch program.

4 Apply for the Step N Fetch program-

This is where things get interesting. The Step N Fetch program is something all of us went through in one form or another. It’s the rite of passage and proving ground that you have what it takes to be a Rogue. Ask any Rogue about being a Step and they will tell you an interesting story. Every Step year is memorable.

Some things you should know about being a Step-

It takes effort- Being a Rogue takes effort. The more active participants we have the more we can do. We want people who are willing to participate and make the Rogues even better.

It will invade your life- Mwa ha ha ha. It will take time (someone has to go get the booze), it will cost money (someone has to pay for the booze), it will not always go smoothly (someone has to go back for ice), it’s a lot of fun (for those who get to drink the booze). The more you put into the Rogues the more you will get out of it. We are a giant dysfunctional family and you will get all the joys and sorrows that comes with it. And its completely worth it.

Every year at the Colorado Renaissance Festival the Harbour does interviews with potential Steps to determine if you are right for the program. We have a list of requirements and guidelines that we look for in each applicant.

Requirements-

Definition of REQUIREMENT: something required:
a : something wanted or needed : necessity <production was not sufficient to satisfy military requirements>
b : something essential to the existence or occurrence of something else : condition <failed to meet the school's requirements for graduation>

-Must have a Full Rogue in good standing as a sponsor
-Must be able to attend the End Of Fair Party (EOFP)
-Must be available for 2 mandatory events during the Rogue year (Meet’N’Greet Parts 1 & 2)
-Must attend the First Step Meeting in September
-Must be able to attend the EOFP the following year for your Graudation

Guidelines-

Definition of GUIDELINE: a line by which one is guided: as
a : a cord or rope to aid a passer over a difficult point or to permit retracing a course
b : an indication or outline of policy or conduct

-Must know and be friends with more than 1 Rogue
-Must be willing to take orders without a “please” or “thank you” attached
-Must be able to laugh at oneself as well as at others
-Must be able to resolve conflict swiftly and appropriately
-Must be able to dedicate as much time to the Program and the Rogues as if they were working a part-time job at 5-15 hours per month
-Must be able to attend a minimum of 4 days of Colorado Renaissance Festival 2018
-Must be honest
-Must be reliable
-Must be able to contribute to the writing, production, and performance of an original skit with the other members of the Step Class
-Must have consistent access to the internet and the Colorado Rogue forums
-Must not let personal drama interfere with their involvement or a fellow Step's involvement with the Program

Congratulations!!!!

== Biography==

In a castle in a faraway land, for quite a long time, lived a lady whose task it was to tend the hounds with her husband. If the villagers wanted something stored in the kennels, or needed a place to rest, they called upon her. As the castle folk petted her hounds they would tell her their cares, both big and small. She had her eyes and ears open, yet rarely spoke of what she knew. Everyone seemed to know her, yet they could not recall her name. To them she was invisible. Had anyone cared to ask, she could have told them how she and her husband yearned for more. They would look out to the sea and guess at the adventures taking place upon the ships that rose and fell with the swells of the sea. When the ships would come in to port to unload the treasures they held beneath their decks, she would listen to the stories the sailors would tell of strange lands and peoples. It seemed as if for all their trials upon the high seas, that these people of the sea were a family. A family that they had chosen to be a part of and that wanted them. In time, she learned to speak some of the tongues they used. These hard working and hard playing people were often roughly treated by the castle folk and called pirates as if that made them the lesser. Yet, she found that they remembered that she had a name. They were kind to her and sought out her company when they were in port. She, in turn, fed them and cared for them when the others would not. Yet, still, she wanted more than just to listen to others’ adventures. She wanted to be part of it. She wanted have her own adventures.

One summer day she met the one the pirates called Captain Greybeard. The others spoke of him in a mixture of awe, fear, and respect. She found him to be both a good listener and given to wise counsel. His crew was welcoming and bid her join them. She would have grand adventures and be whatever she chose to be they said. Hard work was valued and would be rewarded.

Her name was Valya and when the Lady Sinister let out her sails, she would be on it. Let the sea bring her whither it will; her fortune was hers to take!
