Gobbo
Tactical Goat
In the years following the third world war, humanity escaped. Leaving the grasp of their mother world, they spread out among the stars, leaving behind a dead planet.
That was nearly two thousand years ago.
The year is 835 A.E., and human kind has sowed seeds of life across thousands of worlds, extending even far beyond their own solar system. With the invention of the Gravity Drive, travel between stars that would take hundreds of years now take less than a day. It is with this technology that humans have been able to spread so far and wide, leaving their mother planet to rot away in myths and legends.
Space travel is the most common and preferred mode of transport, leaving plenty of ripe, juicy targets for those of less than satisfactory morals to take for themselves. Piracy is rampant, especially on the long treks between worlds that are too close for a G.D., yet far enough where weeks go by with no outside contact. You are currently on a ship that flies that black flag. A ship who's name is feared in any civilized system. A ship known by many names, but only known by one to it's crew. The Red Ghost.
-----------------
This RP will be more along the lines of a Sci-Fi/Slice of Life story. Action, adventure, romance... A lot can happen in the unending reaches of space.
Rules:
No Godmoding. Obviously.
Must be literate. If your post gives me a headache when I try to read it, you'll be hearing from me.
In character stays in character. If you have a problem with another roleplayer, take it to PMs.
Aliens and other species/droids are allowed, to an extent. I'll let you know if your alien is alright when I check out your sheet.
Have fun!
Basic ship layout:
The Red Ghost is a corvette-class ship, large enough to pack quite the punch in battle, but small enough to go unnoticed if need be.
Exterior:
Interior:
The Red Ghost is split up into ten levels, with turbolifts allowing access to any level at any time. The interior of the ship is clean and brightly-lit, giving a feeling of security to all on board.
(Starting from the top)
Level 1: Bridge and control center. This is the brain of the ship, where the captain is normally found. All major ship functions are controlled from this level.
Level 2: Mess hall and rec center. Food, games, and other manners of diversion are here. A place for the crew to relax.
Level 3: Armory and practice range. Load up for battle here, get some practice shots in to make sure your aim doesn't get rusty.
Level 4: Medbay. Got a nasty blaster wound that won't stop bleeding? Feeling spacesick? Head here.
Level 5-8: Crew dormitories and common rooms.
Level 9-10: Fighter bays and ship maintenance. Work on your personal fighter here, add or remove systems, and deploy/dock from this level.

Name: Kazuhiro Shoto, or Kazu for short.
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Fighter: Lion-class strike fighter, highly customized.
Appearance:
Occupation: Captain of the Red Ghost
Personality: Kazu is a very light-hearted and good natured person, finding the best in even the worst situations. By the way he acts, one wouldn't expect him to be the leader of such a highly-feared pirate crew. In fact, he doesn't seem like he should be the type of person to lead anything. Easily distracted and only slightly hyperactive, it's a miracle that he has the ability to make coffee in the morning, much less run a 100+ person crew. Yet somehow he manages to do the job, and do it well. It also helps that the ship and a few of his crew members do the thinking for him on many occasions...
He sticks to a very strict code of conduct that he expects the entire crew to follow, though the rules tend to change up quite a bit. The one rule he has never broken, however, is to never kill unless absolutely necessary. For all of his oddities and flighty nature, when push comes to shove he can become quite a force to be reckoned with.
