Book the XVIIth: Ode to the Green Dragon

[RaditzSoldier]

There was an old Titanic movie. They built a life-size replica...then sunk it. For real.

[bacon]

That's the exact same thing they did... except they could unsink it.

[RaditzSoldier]

Deal or No Deal is intriguing...

[bacon]

Titanic is more intriguing.

[RaditzSoldier]

Have you seen it before?

[bacon]

Many times.

[RaditzSoldier]

Does you like it?

[bacon]

Yes.

Oooh, grand staircase explosion behind the scenes scene again!

[RaditzSoldier]

_{I do not like that movie all too much.}

[bacon]

What movie?

[RaditzSoldier]

Nothing....

[bacon]

I don't mind if you don't like Titanic.

[RaditzSoldier]

Really?

[bacon]

Yes.

[RaditzSoldier]

Yay.

[bacon]

TITANIC!

[RaditzSoldier]

I wish one of those Titanic RPGs would go through.

[bacon]

It'll work when summer comes around. If we can get TFN RPers interested, it'll last.

I want to do a Titanic RPG!!!

[RaditzSoldier]

Then make it.

[bacon]

I'm doing it this summer as I said.

Welcome, passenger, be you 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Class to the Grandest Ship on Earth. Welcome to:

Titanic

-Locations-
There are a variety of locations to visit on the grand luxury cruiser, the Titanic. These are a brief summary of what to expect on her maiden voyage:

The Boat Deck: The Boat Deck provides a breath of fresh air for all passengers. Take the family for a quiet stroll around the ship, and feel the wind fly about you. There are many seatings to be found, and if you seek any assistance, a steward should not be far away.

The Bridge: Passengers are not allowed on the bridge. It is open only to the staff of the ship. Captain Smith and the officers hold their position here throughout the day, steering the ship clear of any obstacles abroad.

The Gymnasium: The gymnasium is accessible quickly from the boat deck. Inside lies a variety of instruments used to exercise, including rowing machines, stationary bicycles, Indian Clubs, the camel, and other new electrical machines for a new and advanced age.

The Grand Staircase: For most passengers, the Grand Staircase is a wonderful way to get about the ship. From the Boat Deck to D-Deck, this beautifully carven and wonderously sculpted stairway provides a most accessible way around.

First Class Smoking Room: The Smoking Room provides a safe haven for men to go and chatter about political issues and the economy and the like, as well as have a smoke. Women are not welcomed here very much.

Reading and Writing Room: Like the Smoking Room, this is where women may go and chat about woman things as well as read and write. Everything is so beautiful in this room, with sunlight penetrating the darkness.

First Class Lounge: Unlike the two rooms mentioned above, the First Class Lounge is used for both men and women of the first class to gather and simply chat, lounge around, or order something to eat.

Verandah Cafe and Palm Court: Two light-hearted cafes situated for small snacks and meals, but nothing horribly fancy. They were designed and decorated to replicate the feeling of gazebos found on many country houses of England.

First Class Cabins: Possibly the most luxurious cabins on any ship in history, the First Class Cabins of the Titanic are decorated in the style of royalty and romance. Vibrant colors and brilliant shades penetrate the rooms, with a sitting room, a bathroom, and a bedroom for one cabin.

A La Carte Restaurant and Cafe Parisian: Two other restaurants on the Titanic, one in-doors, and one overlooking the sea.

Second Class Smoking Room: Located on the Bridge or B-deck above the second-class Library, this male-only smoking bastion was paneled in carved oak. The furniture, also of oak, was upholstered in dark green Moroccan leather to further add to the masculine air.

Third Class Poop Deck: At the very stern lies the Third Class Poop Deck, where third class passengers are able to lie on the Boat Deck, but nowhere else.

Purser's Office: The Purser holds all valuables during the voyage. Should you seek your possessions, simply contact the purser on C Deck. Here you will also purchase tickets to the Turkish Bath, Swimming Pool, and Electric Baths, as well as deck chairs.

Second Class Reading Room: Located far aft on the Shelter or C-deck, the Second-Class Library serves as the main lounge for the second-class passengers. It is easily accessed from the main second-class staircase and is adjacent to the enclosed second-class promenade area.

Third Class General/Smoking Rooms: Located at the stern of Titanic, the General and Smoking Rooms serves as a meeting place for the Third Class Passengers.

First Class Dining Saloon: After passing through the Reception Room, the First Class Dining Saloon is possibly one of the most beautiful structures of the entire ship. A magnificent light sits far above, with many decorative paintings on the walls, and beautiful tables and chairs with sunlight passing through the many windows. Dining is truly heaven here.
The Galley: The Galley, or kitchen of the Titanic is always very busy, because of course, its workers have to prepare food for over two thousand passengers onboard! Here food is cooked and baked and served to the many passengers of the Titanic.

Second Class Dining: The Second Class Dining Saloon is pretty old-fashioned dining with good food for all, but nothing extremely amazing.

Second Class Cabins: It is said that travelling in the Second Class on the Titanic is true to travelling in First Class in earlier days. The fabric patterns and furniture styles that were modern in the 1890s and 1900s are now out of date and have been quietly demoted for use in second-class public rooms and cabins, thus making it quite more lovely and beautiful than it once was.

Third Class Cabins: Though somewhat primitive, third class cabins were far better than anything any other ship had to offer. All cabins lie in one room with four beds and a toilet to offer.

Turkish Baths and Other: Turkish Baths are a technical achievement of the newborn twentieth century. Likewise, electric baths are also excellent. A swimming pool is another feature of the Titanic, just near the Turkish Baths.

Third Class Dining: Third Class is dining is quite bare, and the tables all seat twenty persons each.

Squash Court: Located well down in the Ship on Lower Deck is the squash court. Like the gymnasium, it is under the supervision of an attendant who is there to take care of every need. He could supply racquets, balls, and even another player if a passenger were in need of an opponent.

The Post Office: Hidden from the view of passengers, the mail room houses all mail, as it is licensed to carry mail from Europe to America. Few enter here.

Workshops: Because the ship has to make and produce so many things in so little time to ensure passenger satisfaction, workshops were created in the bottoms of the ship to satisfy these needs. Many things are stored and created here.

Boiler Rooms: To fuel the massive ship, thirty boiler rooms were installed and had to be handworked day and night by men, shoving coal into the furnaces to heat the ship and allow it to soar through the sea.

Ode to the Green Dragon?
