'''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.

 +
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…
  
−
On the Island of Lost Grace, hidden by thick fog and dangerous shoals, stood an old, rundown harbour, unused for countless centuries. The island was home to a fleet of pirates who had thought of no uses for the harbour. Indeed, they scarcely knew of its existence except for the legends and rumors passed down by the oldest and toughest of them around late night fire pits. One day, a young and ambitious First Mate found inspiration for a way to use it. It could be used to test any recruits that the Fleet thought worthy of joining them. The First Mate proposed his idea to the Pirate Council. They discussed the matter for three days and three nights, and then gave him leave from a season of plunder to prepare the harbour for it's new purpose.
+
3 Come out and play with us-
  
−
The First Mate toiled constantly, readying the harbour for the Fleet's return and the newcomers they would drag back. However, he realized that this task was larger than he had first envisioned it. The buildings of the harbour were not just rotten, but they were infested with vermin bred over hundreds of years. After barely avoiding death several times, and having almost nothing to show for his efforts, the First Mate realized that drastic action was required. On a clear and moonless night, the First Mate carried his staff to the edge of the crumbling docks. He raised his arms and began to chant, "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn!”
+
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.
  
−
Time smeared and curled in on itself as his words mingled with the lapping of the water against the pilings and the crash of the waves against the surrounding cliffs. The roar of the sea drowned out all other sensations. When the moon was at it’s zenith, the First Mate felt an energy crackling in the air and thunder shook the dock under his feet. He opened his eyes beheld a towering wave flowing towards him from the sea. As it crested, hundreds of feet above him, the wave halted. A great seam split down the front of the wave, and out of the void rose the Great Dark Lord of the Deep.
+
4 Apply for the Step N Fetch program-
  
−
The First Mate dropped to his knees in submission with his head bowed, shaking. The sound of the water ceased. The air was still. Nearby, a gull was frozen in mid wingbeat. A massive green tentacle rose from the water and rested on the dock beside him, filling his entire vision. A rough caress across his back brought a shiver.  
+
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.
  
−
“Speak, my faithful one.” The voice echoed, as if from the bottom of a deep well, and the First Mate’s head drooped, as if all of the weight of all of the oceans had been forced into his skull.
+
Some things you should know about being a Step-
  
−
“Great Old One, forgive me for disturbing your slumber. I seek only to help in readying the world for your return. To that end, I would ask for assistance.” The First Mate stammered out his plan to his Dark Lord, praying that he survived this experience with his sanity intact.  
+
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.
  
−
“Your idea intrigues me. And as you have always been the most faithful and devout of my Accolytes, I will grant you a modicum of power to see it to fruition. But there is a price.”
+
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.  
  
−
“Whatever you wish, Master. I only seek to add to your followers and prepare the world for you.”
+
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.
  
−
“I require one million souls. It matters not how long it takes. You will bring them here for me. I grant you immortality and sufficient knowledge to accomplish this task. Now,” a cold and slick appendage coiled under the First Mate’s chin and lifted his head, “behold your Harbour and begin your work!”
+
Requirements-
  
−
The First Mate caught just a glimpse of his Lord before the waves crashed down and covered him as he disappeared beneath the water to return to his restless dreaming. False dawn peeked over the horizon.
+
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>
  
−
Slowly turning to survey the docks, the First Mate reveled in what he saw. The wood and ropes were sturdy and new. He glanced over the side into the clear water. The channels had been deepened enough to allow ships to dock properly. Only the dark mist still remained, drifting between the buildings.
+
-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
  
−
Yes, there would be servants for the fleet, they would be called Step’N’Fetches. For one year, they would serve the harbour and assist the pirates with menial tasks. Those who proved their weakness, who were unfit for service, would be served to the Great Cthulhu. Yes, his Master would get the souls he asked for. And they would bear the mark of the Yellow King as a shield against the Hounds of Tindalos, whose duty it would be to carry those unworthy of the fleet to his Master.
+
Guidelines-
  
−
Now, his harbour resplendent beneath the eternal fog, the Harbourmaster (First Mate no longer) began to create the proper defenses for the Island. He cursed the Harbour so that only those who already knew how to find it could return. He brought forth from the depths sunken ships, sagging with the weight of their many cannons. These he placed at the bases of the cliffs, and bid the long dead sailors on them to defend the harbour from all threats. Then, one last task to perform, the Harbourmaster removed a steel crow's cage from its hanging and went to the small graveyard on the far side of the Island.
+
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
  
−
He wandered among the graves, finally finding the grave he wanted. The headstone was simply labeled, “J.P. – May You Get What You Deserve.” The Harbourmaster placed the crow's cage on the soil of the grave and stepped back. He waved his arms, chanting ancient phrases writ from fear, plagued by dread, and cast his spell upon the cage and the plot of land below. The ritual lasted thirteen days, but at the end the Harbourmaster had resurrected his most hated enemy. The crow's cage now contained a mostly decomposed body which screamed in agony. Smiling, the Harbourmaster placed a curse upon the cage to prevent J.P. from sinking into the gentle blackness of death.
+
-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
  
−
He dragged the cage back to the longest dock, the living corpse screaming curses at him the whole way. The Harbourmaster raised the cage to its proper place, hanging from a massive pole, as high as a ship’s center mast. Once in place, the crows flocked to the cage to feast, and the screams could be heard far into the sea.
 
  
−
Satisfied, the Harbourmaster looked over his domain and was content. It would make a fine place for the testing of the Step'N'Fetches, but it would make an even better location to sacrifice those who did not make it through. He walked slowly back along the dock, waiting impatiently for the fleet to return, and for the illustrious moment when he would make that first sacrifice of the unworthy to Great Dark Lord of the Deep.
+
Congratulations!!!!
 +
You passed the second test

You read this whole thing

Now go back to the top and actually do it.

Hopefully we will raise a pint with you 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.
