- Brief Backstory -
The year is 4023, if someone would still measure it since the birth of the long-forgotten Christian deity though no one cares about it....
Humanity has advanced tremendously in terms of technology, but in terms of morale it took several steps back. The average lifespan is at least 500 years...
Interstellar travel is the new reality, a centralized government controls those humans who are still living in the solar system or the colonies around it, though independent dominions are also into existence...
That makes up for a very small part of the man kind, since practically every larger ship or a space station is capable of surviving on it's own, growing synthetic food and mining minerals from the dead space worlds, fueling itself from gas giants and nebulae, most humans live on their own small societies in such vessels, to them the concept of money is obsolete and each and every society and person seeks their own goals in life...
No contact has been made with aliens, though man kind has spread far and wide across the galaxy....
Until now...
- Your Character and its environment -
You can be anyone and everyone you wish, as long as you're human, you can be a cyborg, but your core has to be human. You are the crew of a large mother-ship equipped with everything you can imagine from drones and mini battle-ships to artificial gravity and a forest with wild animals in one section. You have a large quality of resources available at your disposal, so anything you need could be made within a decent amount of time, a few examples are: weapons, ammo, medical devices, robotic limbs, even other spaceships.
You are, at least, vaguely familiar with all the characters on the ship, though you may know very little or too much of the others, depending on what you agree between yourselves. You can have relationship between characters, if you wish.
You are floating in sub-light speed in the void between two large clusters of stars, when something intercepts you. Your engines, apart from prehistoric nuclear-powered ones that would take you eons to travel the distance. You can still maneuver through space, though.
Your first clue of alien presence is a member of the crew found in the forest, at a sea of gore, none of the animals would even go near the remains. Aliens are not invisible to your eyes, you have to think of other ways of spotting them. Their agenda is unclear, no one else has been physically attacked yet, but inexplicable things begin to happen to the rest of you, in terms of thoughts, idea, memories. You all seem to be losing what's called sanity and if you don't do something about it soon, you will all cease to be human... and change forever into something, which cannot be explained, something at the thought of which, your only sensible reaction is to scream in dread...
- The Rules -
While I said you can be anyone and everyone, I'd like to offer several guideline and give a couple of fair warnings, before you join in.
The action is in far away future, so concepts that are limited to our time frame are to be avoided. And by avoided I mean NOT allowed! Those include, but are not limited to:
- Religion - no need to even discuss why...
- Money as prime motivator (you could still play, for instance, an undercover agent of the central government who has come to cripple this station in exchange for money, but you'd need to make it REALLY believable)
- Lust as a prime motivator, sex and the like can, of course happen
- Greed as a prime motivator
- Systematic substance abuse of any kind, as a main thing for a character's story. It doesn't mean your character can't do it in the RP, but that would just be something for the moment, not the main motive in your actions.
I will not be role-playing a character, I will be the Alien beings and will also guide the RP though mass events.
Now that the obvious rules are given, I will extend a few warnings, please read them, before considering to join in.
- DO NOT join in, if you are very religious (I respect all people's beliefs, but this RP will definitely become offensive to you at some points and I really don't want any dramas)
- DO NOT join in, you are easily disturbed, if you suffer from psychological conditions ESPECIALLY extremely low self-esteem and/or depression. I absolutely guarantee you, that your condition will worsen by far, if you actively partake in this.
- DO NOT join in, if you suffer from any mental illnesses or you are anyhow prone to trauma, same reasons as above
- GENERAL WARNING, this RP will have a very heavy vibe, as I tend to dig deep into each character's problems, so if you prefer something lightly casual and not engaging look somewhere else
