This is steampunk, right? Can I be ship's tinker? I keep the ship's various steampunk-y machines in working order, and occasionally make new machines when I can get the supplies, usually after we make a stop at port. I also have some cool world-building ideas if you want to hear them!

Koda says wuzz. What's a wuzz, Koda?

Name: Able Seaman Jasmine "Jazz" Trelawney

Age: 24

Rank: Ship's tinker

Appearance: Jazz' look blends the rough and grimy with the fine and intricate. Her tunic and trousers are of relatively fine cotton, colored golden yellow and royal blue in various patterns (stripes, swirls, etc.), and her tall boots are of black leather. Over the rest, she wears a perpetually greasy leather apron and work gloves. Her long, wavy black hair is kept out of her face by a bandanna in the same fabric as her tunic and trousers. Her eyes are royal blue, the same shade as her clothes, and she wears half-moon spectacles that somehow never seem to break.

Fighting ability: On her own turf (the ship), you'd likely be stopped by one of her contraptions before you could ever lay a hand on her. However, although she carries a pair of daggers in her boots, without her machines to back her up she is easily defeated in hand-to-hand combat. 

More on that world-building stuff later.

Name: She doesn't say and prefers to go by Nameless.

Age: 20 

Rank: Powder monkey. Anyone else read Walker Bean? Powder monkeys rock! ^^

Appearance: Tall and able-bodied. Long, black, slightly wavy hair. Sea green eyes that are always filled with an unwavering sadness. Never smiles.

Fighting Ability: She doesn't fight. One reason is because she's the powder monkey; the other, she... has a rocky past. She doesn't tell anyone about it.

I made her older because I thought she might have had a year or two of medical training.

Appearence: tanned skin, close-cropped obsidian black hair, muscular, incredibly dark brown eyes, always has a smug smile/smirk on his face, large steampunkish goggles on his head, a lot of firearms all over him, creme colored pirate puffy shirt, black leather leggings.

Now for those world-building ideas! I am open to suggestions; feel free to modify or veto any of these. 

The world is steampunk at the peak of its prosperity. Much of the world's power is generated by steam, and also by energy crystals: quasi-magical stones that glow faintly and, if used properly, can provide energy to mechanical constructions. Fashions, social classes, and the like closely resemble Victorian England. The effect of this on the ship is that mostly it sails, but various machines allow it greater firepower, short bursts of heightened speed, and the ability to "grab" other ships for boarding quickly and efficiently. All of this is powered by a steam boiler and a single energy crystal.

If we have a home port, it's Hovenport in the rather large island country of Quennland. Most countries (Thrymark, Dittory, Caid, everybody add more) are constitutional monarchies, with Sarce a notable exception as it's a republic. All major countries have quite a few overseas territories and very well-defined social classes. Think the world of Oliver Twist, My Fair Lady, or Mary Poppins. 

Magicians are generally regarded with suspicion, as they tend to be either mere entertainers or charlatans. The few "real" magicians simply know more about energy crystals and working with them than most, and as such can use them for a variety of unconventional things. Jazz is somewhst skilled at this, but not enough so to really qualify as a magician. Cap'n Crow is also good with energy crystals, as a very small one powers her mechanical arm.
