Sons Of Plunder


Raging Land Squid

360 views

I was listening to a song by Disturbed called "Sons of Plunder", and I was struck by an awesome vision! I tend to imagine a lot of stuff when listening to music.

 

Anyways, while listening to the song, I came up with an awesome idea. It was a group of BZP members I talk to a lot (see list below), who were pirates on a post apocolyptic earth which was now 90% covered in water, and in which the seas are ruled by modernesque pirates. There was a war for control of the world going on, and my crew was caught in the middle of it.

 

My crew consisted of Myself as captain, GMan as the first mate, Bahrag Kal as the Mechanist, and Keyblade, Wrinkledlion X, and frankin-kal-96 as... well, three other crew members (titles not decided...)

 

So, I decided (with the help of GMan) to draw out my crew. That picture is a WIP now...

 

So, as it stands, my crew consists of:

 

Myself: Cap'n

 

GMan: First mate

 

Bahrag Kal: Machinist

 

Keyblade

 

frankin-kal-96

 

Wrinkledlion X

 

That's all I have for now...

 

I'm considering making this into a hand drawn comic, and if I do, I'll be looking for other members to make up enemy crews... Keep an eye out for that...

Here're the lyrics to said song, with one edit...

 

"Sons Of Plunder"

 

Tell me you like it

Tell me you like it

 

You say you've found yourself a new sound

The ship's loaded and ready to go

A bit too much just like the old sound

Already heard it for the hundredth time

One hundred more, all have the same sound

Running around with all the sheep that you know

"It's so sublime, they're breaking new ground"

"They're sure to have another hit this time"

 

Come on

Can't you just leave it alone?

It doesn't have any soul

Just find a thing of your own

And stop pretending to know

 

[Chorus:]

As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renown

All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves

All searching for the answers they don't even care to know

Give it to me

Give it to me

You like it?

 

I'm still surrounded by the "new sound"

I've had enough and I'm ready to go

A strangle-hold throughout the world now

The new obsession will fade in time

A thin reminder of the past now

All convoluted hardly ready to go

Their whines and moans will never last now

I think you've given us our fill this time

 

Come on

Can't you just leave it alone?

It doesn't have any soul

Just find a thing of your own

And stop pretending to know

 

[Chorus]

 

[bridge:]

As it's blown apart, hundreds thrown away

Makes me question just what I believe

Brothers torn apart, mindless drones enslaved

Makes me search for an answer

I don't want to know

It's like a plague from below

Killing all that I know

One hundred voices the same

Drench their sorrow in flame

 

As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renown

All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves

All searching for the answers they don't even care to know

Give it to me

Give it to me

As the countless numbers hunger for worldwide renown

All the pimping sons of plunder will roll up their sleeves

All searching for the answers they don't even care to know

Give it to me

Give it to me

You like it?

Tell me you like it

Tell me you like it

Tell me you like it

Tell me you like it

Amazingly i get the same sort of vision about this song... And again you have proved you have the best taste of music :D

Think of it this way, BtB. The world has ended, and it's now mostly covered in water. Small floating communities have popped up, and the governments of old have all but dissapeared. The massive seas are ruled by modern pirates, with a mix of ancient pirate garb and a more modern look as well. The way I had imagined, it was our BZP characters who lived of this world (like me with my squid head, or GMan with his Miru, or BK with his Bohrok Head...)

 

Oh, and sorry, Serenikai... I just put people that I knew what their character looked like... Heh... heh heh...

First, BK: I dunno... I just saw you as someone good with machines, and very inventive.

 

Second, WX: Uh, heh heh... I already kinda did your character... You should be happy with it...

 

hi ppl: Yes... yes it is...

Does he have a peg-leg or a hook-hand? 'Cause those are awesome.

Also, what's the name of our ship?

Mmm... Human... It's bionicle related, there are no humans... Heh heh... Though, points for the attempted cannibalism, KB...

 

Also: WX, I'm trying to stay away from the extremely steriotypical pirate image... They never really had those...

But there's no denying the fact they're awesome...

Hmm, the "World covered in water, small civilizations, and pirates sailing around" theme is very reminiscent of Zelda: Wind Waker. Were you inspired by that at all?
