Ghi: A Past Unknown (Roleplaying Thread)

The sun was shining brightly across my face. I could hear seagulls nearby and waves breaking lazily along the shoreline. I knew it must be a beautiful day, but all I wanted was to go back to sleep in hopes that my head would quit pounding and the ringing in my ears would go away. Slowly, as to not aggravate my head further and make myself nauseous, I sat up and wiped the sleep from my eyes. I opened my eyes to a squint so as to not blind myself in the sun. As the world came into view, I realized I was outside. Confused, I looked around. I was sitting on an unfamiliar beach.

"How did I get here?" I thought to myself. "The last thing I remember is..."

I didn't know. A gut-wrenching fear began to swell in my chest. I could feel the sweat beading up on my brow as a million and one thoughts raced through my mind. There were people about, but no one paid me any mind. A sword lay less than a foot away to my right. Hastily, I grabbed it and stood up. Oh no, too fast. I tried to make it to a busted a barrel near where I was, but didn't, and I spewed vomit onto the ground. It splashed as it hit the sand and splattered my bare feet. I will admit, though, I started to feel better.

I wiped my mouth and walked down to the water to rinse of my feet and wash out my mouth. The water was salty, but tasted better than vomit so I couldn't complain. I examined the sword I found and noticed a word etched into the hilt.

"Ghi," I read aloud, "As good a name as any, I suppose."

There was a ship nearby, and people were scurrying about. Maybe the captain could help me... help me what? Find out who I am and what I'm doing here? I needed a story fast.
