Futuristic Crimson Cosmos- A Thing Inspired Horror Rp

Futuristic - The Crimson Cosmos Catalogue

The Planet Minerva 5- The Virgin Planet Minerva 5 was noticed decades ago by Chinese astronomers, with the constant falling of snow and frozen lakes suggesting it could sustain life. Probes sent to the planet took sample of its little ecosystem- carefully analyzed to discover if it could harm...

Far, far away from the Milky Way- humanity has found its greatest opportunity, a way to escape their expiring planet. Terraforming mars and the moon to temporarily house the worlds elite while the rest of the world tries to mine whatever resources are left and fight over whatever they can find. Those of a deemed higher genetic quality where shuttled off too the few non-terrestrial colonies- but with the shipments from Earth lessening with pirate attacks and war, people are growing desperate- hence the hasty construction of the HUS Voidsight. The Craft is ripe with potential defects, but it is humanities potential final hope. The Strongest and Brightest are sent too this new Virgin Planet- capable of sustaining life- though free of any alien life that could carry disease according to their surveillance. The journey would take around five years with faster than light travel, and some hibernation to ensure nothing goes wrong along the way. The crew would arrive on planet and quickly establish experimentation and preparation for a mass-human migration- heroes to humanity in its darkest hour.

The Rundown
So I just rewatched The Thing (+ Prequel and Non Canon Novel from our favorite Biomass's pov) and want to do a thing RP. As you may guess from the inspiration- things will not go as planned and most of you will probably join the biomass- hence the recommendation of multiple characters. Once we start you can post whichever whenever, and when we start infecting people I will ask for anyone wishing to join the biomass, then spin a wheel and see if you can hide from the other players. You would run one main character that would be safe from assimilation (In the beginning at least) and less fleshed out side characters to act as cannon fodder.

Its a parasite that mimiks human body and then turns in to goo and envelops your body and starts consuming you. Then it got your appearence added to its list and it can mimik you also. Horrible scenes

pretty much- cept it wants to hide among humans to start and its contact based- though yall will have to figure out my organisms methods of spreading

What powers and abilities does the biomass have? Does it replicate the memories of the people it absorbs? Does it have telepathy? Create hybrids?

You've got a lot of lore for the stories and stuff, but are you going to write down character sheets so people can actually sign up?

I was waiting for more interest before posting a CS thread

I’m a big fan of the Thing so I would be interested in this. In fact I just happened to rewatch the original 50’s version this past week, so the timing on this interest check is perfect. I’m thinking of maybe playing a biologist who is to oversee the addition of Earth plants to this new world.

 

[Gears]

Hmm, I can think of some Agri-Horror to add

you'd probably mostly work on the Hestia Base

So are we starting this just as the planet is being colonized, or has it been around for awhile?

 

[Gears]

Their has been one human force sent and drones have already built the structures
