Beast of the Dark Forest
Story
After a long period of war, there is finally cosmic rest. Many interplanetary nations are beginning to recover and open their trade routes again, and for a pirate that means many things. The newly opened routes and the ships that travel them are unsure and weak, but the military districts still tense from war will be diligent in protecting the shining hope they've gained after long years of darkness and blood. From the shadows, the pirates that feed from the rich during days of peace emerge. Some hid while the war went on, others followed it to collect valuables from its victims, while the strongest of said pirates were commissioned by their nations of origin to fight for them in exchange for a hefty sum.
Needless to say, taking too much too soon will turn the attentions of the military nations, the result of which is death. Inactivity makes a Captain and his crew weak, putting them at a disadvantage to the competition. A fine balance must be maintained in these times of wavering peace.
Both seasoned Captains of space and time travel will be out there, as well as pioneers to marauding the galaxy. While some will have crews and fleets for an advantage in number, others operate independently for a stealthier approach. The eyes of the Intergalactic Protectors of Citizen Welfare (Space Police) are always searching for criminals, and the bounty hunters are twice as diligent, as the price on a pirate's head is high.
The RP will start near Klaxxis, known as the center of the universe by any civilization capable of space travel. It's the best place to get repairs for spacecraft, pick up supplies, hire new recruits, and buy useful tools and weapons from dealers who bring competition from all over the galaxy. However, because of the high population of this planet and its worth in goods, the IPCW patrol it carefully.
Humans are fairly new to space travel, and it's uncommon to catch them wandering outside of the military's protective gaze. Still, as humans do, some curiously wander into the darker realms of space. Most are unfortunate, finding themselves victim to piracy. However, those savvy enough are often 'adopted' by trading caravans or pirates looking for an extra hand.
(You can RP as an alien or a human, replies should probably be about 5+ sentences long)
Comment if you're interested or have suggestions =^-^=
