The year is 2285, three years after the devastating Second Solar War.

A century had passed since humanity achieved the unprecedented feat of colonizing various celestial bodies within the Solar System. 2150 marked the beginning of the era of solar system colonization. Major countries such as the US, UK, Russia, France, China, and other developed nations have established their colonies across different planets, moons, dwarf planets, and asteroids. Each nation's expertise and resources have been strategically utilized to maximize their influence and advancements in various regions of space. Yet, as always, development in human civilization are always accompanied by bloodbath.

The First Solar War was a conflict that erupted in the year 2205, marking a turning point in human history and the beginning of a turbulent era. The war was ignited by escalating tensions between major nations due to territorial disputes, resource scarcity and ideological differences.

The First Solar War concluded in 2210 after five years of intense conflict. The major powers, recognizing the futility of their prolonged struggle, opted for a status quo ante bellum agreement. This decision was driven by the realization that the war had left all nations significantly weakened, with infrastructure and economies in tatters.

The aftermath of the war set the stage for the emergence of the Golden Age of Space Piracy. The major powers, struggling to rebuild and consolidate their territories, were unable to maintain large fleets of dedicated space warships due to the astronomical costs involved. As a result, privateering—contracting independent ship captains and crews to carry out missions—became the de facto strategy for maintaining control and projecting power.

Following the First Solar War, the Solar System entered a tumultuous interwar period characterized by shifting alliances, covert operations, and the pursuit of technological advancements. This era, spanning from 2210 to 2275, was marked by fragile peace and simmering tensions as the major powers sought to recover, rebuild, and prepare for a potential resurgence of conflict.

The Second Solar War broke out in 2275. It was a devastating conflict that erupted amidst heightened tensions and political rivalries in the Solar System. Fought between two major factions. The United Terran Alliance (UTA), lead by the United States, United Kingdom, and France, clashed against the Solar Dominion lead by China and Russia. For 7 years between 2275~2282, the Solar System was engulfed in flames, plunged into chaos and violence. The full deployment of advanced technologies developed during the interwar period left a trail of destruction and loss in its wake.

The war ended in a stalemate, with neither faction achieving a decisive victory. The Solar System was left scarred, major powers weakened, and infrastructure in disarray..

In a Solar System still reeling from the war's aftermath and plagued by the rise of fragmented powers, piracy has become rampant. Against this backdrop, our group of rogue starship crew, each carrying their own burdens and dreams, find themselves being brought together under a jolly roger banner.

Roles to be filled:

Captain: The overall leader and decision-maker of the pirate crew, responsible for the ship's operations, strategy, and navigation. They have the final say in all matters concerning the ship.

Navigator: A skilled individual responsible for plotting courses, determining the ship's position in space, and calculating optimal routes for plundering targets.

Chief Engineer: Oversees the ship's engines, power systems, and overall maintenance. They ensure the ship's systems are functioning optimally and coordinate repairs when necessary.

Boarding Party Leader: Leads boarding operations, including planning and executing raids on other ships or space stations. They coordinate the pirate crew's activities during hostile takeovers.

Quartermaster: Responsible for managing the ship's inventory, supplies, and distribution of resources among the crew. They ensure everyone has the necessary equipment and provisions.

Medic: Trained in medical care and emergency response, the medic attends to the health and well-being of the crew, treating injuries and illnesses sustained during encounters or accidents.
