Character auditioning for: Elizabeth Swann
Why do you want to rp this character so much?: Besides watchign the movie more than 10 times I have studies how She taked walked and forms her words I think that I am a perfect choise to play such a person.
The History of the character: When pirates under the command of one Captain Barbossa raid Elizabeth's Caribbean town of Port Royal, she finds herself taken captive by them because an Aztec Coin Necklace in her possession leads them to believe she is the last person needed to release them from their ancient curse. In actuality, Elizabeth had pilfered the necklace from Will Turner to prevent Turner's rescuers from believing him to be a pirate. Therefore, Will Turner is the rightful owner of the necklace, and it is he whom the cursed pirates seek.
Both of Elizabeth's suitors race to her rescue, Norrington with the British Royal Navy, and Turner, using less-than-legal means in the company of one Captain Jack Sparrow. Both men are actually given the chance to rescue Elizabeth, with Will being the first to do so, albeit also betraying Sparrow as he does not trust the eccentric pirate. Barbossa eventually catches up to Will, Elizabeth, and the crew Sparrow had assembled, and a full scale battle ensues — with Barbossa and his undead crew ultimately winning. Elizabeth is then forced to walk the plank, and ends up marooned on a tiny island with Jack Sparrow. After learning that Sparrow is, in fact, not the heroic escape artist she once believed him to be, Elizabeth takes her fate into her own hands by tricking Sparrow and getting him drunk to the point of passing out, then burning the remaining stores of rum that are conveniently on the island. This creates a magnificent smoke signal that is noticed by the Royal Navy, and the pair is rescued. Aboard Norrington's ship once again, Elizabeth tries to convince her father and would-be suitor to rescue Will, but both men are reluctant to do so as it would be an inevitably risky maneuver. At this point, Elizabeth agrees to marry Norrington in order to save Will's life as it he whom she truly loves. When Norrington realizes this, he decides he does not want to force her to marry him, and relatively graciously concedes her hand to Turner, preferring her to be happy with another man than unhappy with himself. (A deleted scene shows Norrington questioning Elizabeth about her sudden decision to marry him, in which it was also revealed that his first name is actually James.)
Descent sized sample post:
There I had done it, by kissing Jack I caused the love of my life William Turner to lave me. *I wonder where he is now* I though to my self as I sat on a chair looking out the window on to the water. My window over looked the entirety of Port Royal. I placed my head in my hands a began to weep. *Will...* I though i image swam through my mind. I stodd up so suddenly I looked like I had ben hit witha few volts of electricity. "I'm going to find him!" I said aloud to my self, The dress i had on was reather large athte bottom it was golden with hite designs all over it, it did not have any sleeves. I ran down stairs where I saw my father Govenor Swann "Father!" I shouted egearly not even half way down the stairs. "get ready a boat...I'm off to find William!" I demaned My father looked at me like I had gone mad. Gone mad with love. I loved hism and i was determined to get him back. But it as also his choise if he wants me back. I was pretty confidant that he would...but you never know.
At the docks i climb aboard the ship exitement in my heard. *this is it* i told my self. I felt a slight brease "well this isn't going to carry us" I said alout to my self and who ever was listening. But it might.
