I'm Bloody Anne Rackham. Arr!
Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!
And don't forget that this coming Friday is Talk Like A Pirate Day...
Arr!
do.

This is Black Mary Flint!
Sounds like a dwarf to me -- guess I'm having Dragonlance crossover thoughts.
Like anyone confronted with the harshness of robbery on the high seas, you can be pessimistic at times. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!
Scribe, if you've never seen Sleepy Hollow, it might increase your Johnny Depp appreciation to greater heights.  I've been a Depp fan for years and I thought he'd never better Sleepy Hollow, until Pirates came out. Benny and Joon is great too, what with his homage to Buster Keaton's comedy. The guy's a genius. ::big wuvvy expression:: |

You know, I'd never realised the man is 40 years old. Wow. I'm getting old!
My fave Depp movies are Chocolat, What's Eating Gilbert Grape and From Hell... not in any particular order. Actually, I can't think of a movie in which he was bad. Don Juan DeMarco, Nick of Time (with Walken, woo!), Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas... there were all pretty good. Nah, there's one. Didn't think much of The Astronaut's Wife. But I'm not sure that was his fault.
do.

My pirate name is:
Mad Morgan Cash
Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. You're musical, and you've got a certain style if not flair. You'll do just fine. Arr!
Hmmm thats not new, right?
Singing pirate .... I'd sing JD or OB to sleep ANYTIME .... lets buckle my swash or swash my buckle ...

Mad Ethel Kidd
"Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!"
Ethel??? Wha??
Savvy?
And Maram, that buckling swashes stuff still sounds dirty. |

OH YES, dirty thoughts, JD and OB aboslutely belong together in a sentence 
We are gathering a quite nice "able bodied crew" here. Who got the parrot?

I own a cockatoo. No, really...I do. A Moluccan by the name of Peachy. She can laugh really evilly, too. And wolf whistle. Will that fit in with our crew of rum-soaked barnacles?
My precious little pumpkin, when put through the quiz, is...
Calico Jenny Rackham!
Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake.
Yeah, she's a world-class ditz and flake, so it fits. Who'd have thought that the quiz was all-inclusive for birds?? What do you think, Peachy...er, Jenny?
"SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!!!!!!!!!" |

Thought Id try and be more sociable and share:
Your pirate name is:
Iron Ethel Bonney
A pirate's life isn't easy; it takes a tough person. That's okay with you, though, since you are that person. You can be a little bit unpredictable, but a pirate's life is far from full of certainties, so that fits in pretty well. Arr!

Iron Grace.... I like it.
Has anyone found any good POTC fanfic yet? Everything I've seen tends to revolve around Elizabeth dying, Will getting gang-raped, and Cap't Jack showing up to "comfort" him.

Nope. I've mostly seen slash and some het fics of questionable quality. There was an LOTR/POTC crossover I was reading that looked interesting (Legolas is Will Turner), but the author seemed to just want to crank out half-assed explanations for the gaps (using the "I have a cold/flu" excuse, of all things) and get squeeing reviews (which she now has by the barrowful). I tried to beta a couple chapters for her, but she didn't want to deal with the issues I brought up. Sad thing, too, because the concept is pretty intriguing. It just requires lots of WORK to make the ends meet believably and she didn't want to do that. 
From what I have seen, the POTC fandom is as overrun with teenies as the Legolas subgenre. I think the time from the premiere of POTC to the first "modern girl falls onto the Black Pearl" posted on ff.net was .0005271 seconds. |
