You are sitting
You are sitting in your favorite chair, reading an excellent novel you picked up yesterday. You become quite thirsty and get up to pour a glass of water from the sink. However, when you turn on the cold knob, water doesn't come out of the faucet. Instead what slowly squeezes itself through the faucet is a green glass bottle with a cork in it. You pop the cork and tip the bottle upside-down. A rolled-up note falls out. It reads in loopy handwriting:
Congratulations! You have been selected at random from a list of exsisting people in the world to take part in the nautical adventure of a lifetime! You and nine others will board our ship the S.S Afterlife and take part on a fantastic cruise to fascinating places, the likes of which you have never seen before! All nescessities will be provided by our superb staff of robotic stewards. Please fill out this form and shove it up the faucet that this bottle came from. When you are fully packed, stand at your mailbox and drink exactly one teaspoon of water. You and your luggage will be temporarily swallowed by a giant land shark and then deposited at the location.
Remember there are only 10 spots so fill out the form soon!
Happy Sailing,
Skipper and Port, the S.S Afterlife
P.S: CAPTCHAS will not take up a spot.
You smack the bottom of the bottle and another rolled up note comes out.

Gender/Pronouns: Girl, she/her
AE, CAPTCHAE, or CBer?: CBer!
Perceived age: Looks to be around 15 or 16
Personality: Can be very shy and introverted when you first meet me, but I warm up quickly. My sense of humor is sarcastic, and I don't waste a chance to add in a little quip every now and then. I also love debating things I feel strongly about, such as food, animals, books, etc. Not really one to assert myself in the "leader's role" right at the beginning, but if a leader is needed, I am ready for the job.
Strengths: I'm athletically fit, I'm very crafty and imaginative, and I'm a peacemaker.
Weaknesses: Chocolate, I'm not very good at making split decisions and sometimes second-guess myself, and heat. I can't stand hot weather.

I almost always have my pair of retractable knitting needles tucked into my back pocket.
Packing List: Fluffy blanket, flashlight, swimming suit(just in case), a stash of chocolate, notebook and pens, journal, change of clothes, sunscreen, and my iPod Nano + earbuds, which has all my favorite songs downloaded onto it.
Favorite Marine Animal (Penguins count): Probably dolphins.

Day One, Part one:
The CBers were at a great dock, having just been deposited by a massive land-shark. Next to the dock was a massive white and grey ship about two stories tall. The ship was big but not as large as your average cruise ship. The various CBers had been standing on the dock for roughly a minute. Just as they were beginning to become quite restless, two figures stepped out onto the edge of the ship. One was a woman who was not short wearing a navy blue peacoat and a wide-brimmed hat. She had jet-black hair wrapped in a ponytail and small eyes. The other was a man who was not tall wearing a sand-colored jacket and wearing a bandana that hid his face. He also had black hair that was bushy and prickly and was sporting long sideburns.
"Welcome," said the woman who was not short in a gentle but firm voice, "I am Skipper, and the man next to me is Port. We are your hosts aboard the S.S Afterlife!" There was some chatter among the CBers at this point along the lines of 'So that's Skipper and Port,' 'Morbid name for a ship,' and 'I'm hungry.'
"Well don't just stand there!" said Port in a gruff but cheery voice, "Come aboard!"
"We can't!" piped up a CBer named Viola, "You haven't lowered the gangplank!" Skipper and Port had a brief whispered conversation.
"Right you are, Viola! We will do that... in a second. Now, which one was the lower lever..." Skipper seemed to be fiddling with some kind of console on the railing. As she did so, a live chicken shot out of the side of the boat, narrowly missing the CBer Vyolette. "Nope, not that one..." She continued and eventually, there was a loud 'CHUNK' and a metal platform with a shiny railing came out of the side of the ship.
"All aboard the S.S Afterlife!" Port yelled. The CBers rushed onto the ship and there was only a mild amount of violent shoving. "If you will all wait in the main hall, Skipper and I will address you all shortly." The CBers bustled some more, making their way to the main hall.
"Something unnerves me about one of our guests," Skipper said, "I'm not sure what it is but it makes me nervous."
"Relax, Skipper. I'm sure it's nothing. This will be fun! Go ahead and launch the ship," Port reminded. Skipper tapped some buttons on the console and the huge propellers turned under the ship, driving it forward into the deep, blue sea.

Yay, it started!
I really like your intro! Would you be... Agent Winter?

No, we are not. We will be on hiatus for about two weeks, but we will return with part two.
