  DARK STARS

  Entry Log: 01
  Date: 04 APR 2343
  Time: 1024​

  
  Salutations, Esteemed Legionnaire,
  
  Heartfelt felicitations are certainly warranted, for the attainment of the esteemed distinction "Honor Graduate" at the prestigious Solymus Intergalactic Academy is no trivial feat. To put it into perspective, the statistical rarity of such an accomplishment stands at a mere 0.03%, a remarkable achievement by any measure. However, defying these odds, you stand before us today, a newly minted legionnaire, poised to uphold harmony within the ever-expansive frontiers of our universe.
  
  Embarking alongside your newly formed crew, your inaugural assignment entails the transportation of three detainees of Homo Potentialis origin to the confines of Lunar Gate Penitentiary. Situated upon Thellara's third celestial satellite, Cobos, this task adheres to standard protocols — a challenge well within the purview of an "Honor Graduate" like yourself.
  
  May fortune favor your endeavors, and always bear in mind the profound sentiment: "pax inter astra."
  
  
  

  PREMISE

  The Crew's mission entails the transportation of the prisoners to the Lunar Gate Penitentiary. While en route, their path intersects with a distress signal. Adhering to protocol, they embark on an investigative course of action. This leads them to a colossal carrier adrift in the cosmic expanse, its power reserves diminished to a mere threadbare sustenance of life. Repeated attempts to establish communication prove fruitless, prompting the crew to secure docking and delve deeper into the enigma. Upon closer scrutiny, the carrier's deserted appearance belies a sense of eerie abandonment.
  
  

  UNIVERSE INFO

  This RP is set in the New Oasis universe. You don't have to know much about New Oasis other than a very small percentage of the human population have varying superpowers. However, this takes place centuries after the main rp where technology is advanced enough to take human civilization through deep space. In fact, there are already several galactic governments and over a hundred known species. This is where the player can get creative and design their own home planet, race, and other flavor text that may or may not help throughout the rp. Of course, you're more than welcome to create an ordinary human, or one modified with cybernetics. I won't stop you.
  
• 「 ABOUT 」
  GM INTRO

  Hello, Beann here.
  
  This is a reboot/reconstruction of the very first rp I made here on RPN. Granted it never took off but hopefully things will be different this time around. This RP takes elements from the book series: Aurora's Rising, as well as the RPG: Dread - Beneath a Metal Sky. It also uses the New Oasis universe (in a much, much farther timeline) so technically it's a spinoff. I plan to incorporate Lovecraftian and existential horror bits.
  
  Enjoy.
  
  

  THE CREW

  
  The crew comprises six illustrious legionnaires, each of whom has exhibited remarkable prowess during their training, attaining the esteemed distinction of "Honor Graduate." For the past six years, they've honed their abilities through collective dedication, standing out amongst hundreds of peers. This rigorous preparation has readied them to safeguard tranquility amidst the intricate tapestry of intergalactic governance.
  
  [[ RESERVED -/.THE ALPHA ]] stands at the helm, steering the crew with wisdom and resolve. Tasked with meticulous selection of each crew member, this leader shoulders the burden of making challenging decisions, and guiding the team through uncharted territories.
  
  [[ OPEN -/.THE NAVIGATOR ]] possesses unparalleled expertise in piloting, navigating the cosmos from point A to point B with an audacious disregard for conventional limits. These skillful pilots masterfully maneuver through perilous obstacles, safeguarding the vessel from potential breaches.
  
  [[ OPEN -/.THE SENTINEL ]] embodies formidable strength and unwavering protection. As the crew's vanguard, they ensure tranquility is upheld, overseeing both defensive weaponry and formulating strategic combat approaches, should the need arise.
  
  [[ OPEN -/.THE ENVOY ]] wields a silver-tongued finesse, adeptly handling diplomacy and negotiations. Possessing the ability to extricate the crew from the clutches of trouble through skillful conversation, they are the epitome of diplomatic grace.
  
  [[ OPEN -/.THE MECHANICUS ]] is the hands-on maestro of ship maintenance and repairs. Their adeptness spans the gamut of technical intricacies, offering unflagging support as tech savant, engineer, and the adept mender of cybernetic appendages.
  
  [[ OPEN -/.THE COGNIZANT ]] epitomizes intellectual prowess, venturing into biology and chemistry. They handle organic specimens, acting as researcher and esteemed medic.
  
  [[ ERROR: OPEN -/.PRISONERS ]]
  Although not officially counted among the crew, the ship will also accommodate the presence of the detainees. These individuals are restrained by specialized metal handcuffs that temporarily neutralize their unique abilities, rendering them akin to ordinary individuals. Opting against the imposition of capital punishment, these prisoners have chosen an alternative path by consenting to be transferred to a labor camp. Here, they will be engaged in the laborious task of mining the coveted Glaetium, a precious metal, for the duration of their sentence.

OST 1 — MAIN THEME

 

[Worthlessplebian]

You got my interest. o7

 

[Abhartach]

I'm not at all familiar with the inspiration sources, but I'm profoundly interested in the overall premise and genre. I'd love to draw up some concepts for either The Cognizant or Mechanicus!

 

[Ayan]

I would absolutely love to join, like others, not familiar especially with New Oasis, but I'd love to figure things out

 

[Sierra-Alpha]

I've absolutely zero clue what this New Oasis universe is about — or any of the mentioned media as a matter of fact, but your setup has most definitely piqued my interests. I'd love to be on board!

 

[Beann]

We are still looking for a few more players to fill: Navigator, Envoy, and 2 prisoner slots.

 

[Remembrance]

I’m interested!

 

[idiot]

can’t believe I missed this absolute gem !! I’m very much interested — might try my hand at a prisoner role !

 

[Shawdios]

A prisoner role sounds fun! Count me in, sci-fi RPs are hard to come by as of late

 

[Beann]

A prisoner role sounds fun! Count me in, sci-fi RPs are hard to come by as of late

unfortunately, all 3 prisoner roles have been taken! There are 2 more crew roles if you're interested

 

[Shawdios]

unfortunately, all 3 prisoner roles have been taken! There are 2 more crew roles if you're interested

Navigator and envoy correct? I’ll lean towards navigator because I don’t exactly have much confidence in my ability to play a smooth talker character

 

[Kovacs]

I'll throw my hat in too, if the envoy slot is still up for grabs o7

 

[Firelie]

Ill throw my hat in as a replacement should someone drop

 

[Beann]

Ill throw my hat in as a replacement should someone drop

The navigator position is still open if you're interested

 

[Firelie]

gimme

 

[simj26]

Is this still open
