Make new quests and people

Can I make my own quests and people? I wan't to make Blackbeard with Queen Ann's Revenge and some quests with him. I have plenty of ideas. Can you help me? I am willing to learn.
 
Yes you can. :onya

The best place to start is in the "storyline" subforum. Begin by reading what others have done, such as Peter Blood and Shieldmaiden.

Then start writing! A journey of 1,000 miles begins with the first step.

ok I understand, but what should I write?
 
Hello, can someone really help me? I have many ideas for new quests or side-quests, I only need to know how to make them. I can help you then, I can make those quests and people. I really want that!
 
Well, Hylie has helped you by pointing you in the right direction. ;)
You need to read some of the threads in the 'Storylines' sub-forum, and probably this tutorial thread: http://forum.piratesahoy.net/index.php/topic/11382-making-a-new-quest/
Unfortunately, some of the threads in that sub-forum are full of dead links to other topics, but hopefully you'll get the general idea; planning is essential.
You need to start by writing down your ideas and structuring them properly. Consider which new characters/locations you would need, and write them down too.
For quests or side-quests, write some of the dialogue you might want the characters to say, even if it's just short conversations.
From that comes options that the player will face; what will happen if the player chooses path X or path Y in your quests?

Basically, once you have your ideas clearly planned out, post about them in the 'Storylines -> Other' sub-forum.
Then, we can take a look at what you want to do and let you know what's easy, what's not, and who can help.

As for making new characters; how good are you at using 3D modelling programs?
I suspect you'll need to do some of that yourself, seeing as most of our modellers either specialise in ships, locations, or just aren't active any more.
