TAKING THE STARS



To explore an endless galaxy, on endless adventurers with risk and danger at every turn, who wouldn't want that? It's something new, daring, exciting every new place you reach. It's freedom.

OVERVIEW



“Are you sure they are the ones you want to recruit sir?”


Bright masses of stars and constellations blended together, forming a sea of sparkling color that seemed to move side to side like waves at times. In the distance, behind the bright seas, a large blue planet glowed with specks of yellow city lights on it’s surface. From the large crystal clear window that reached from floor to ceiling on the large transport ship, the lights were dimmed and at times only seemed to be reflecting light from the inside of the ship. “Sir?” The young male’s voice repeated again, causing the graying haired stargazing man to briefly glance back over his shoulder. He arched a large bushy gray eyebrow, prodding at the boy to continue. “It’s just that they are so, opposite from each other. Not to mention, some strayed from the path of laws. They could cause this whole thing to end in a disaster.” The older man considered the words carefully before turning his dark brown orbs back to the great depth of space.



“They’ll work.”





Imagine it, sailing across the seas of stars on a ship. Going wherever you please, doing whatever the hell you wanted. Well almost whatever you wanted. Since the great war between the seven worlds of the Cælestis galaxy three years ago, the rest of the known galaxies and solar systems have been gripped with fear that it might happen to their own worlds. This in turn caused a snowballing effect of governments and galactic securities to crack down on imports and exports. That included people. Before the war there had been crews and ships that would have plenty of work enlisted to them by businesses, companies, and even the government at times. They found work easily, earned their pays and had easy access to almost any planet they needed. They were a cheaper form of transport and job workers, and most crews would bend and accommodate to their buyers needs. But with fear rippling throughout all of space, they suddenly became a threat and people that couldn’t be trusted since they didn’t always run under law and order. And it eventually lead to basically the whole explored universe to mark them as outlaws and wanted criminals, putting prices on their heads for their captures, dead or alive. So slowly as more and more worlds started to lock down, allowing less and less people through and hunting more and more down, the number of these crews and ships dwindled and dwindled. Leaving only a few to scatter the galaxies to search and scavenger for what little work they can, eventually becoming known as Pirates Most of the few that remained soon fell to the darker side of things, only aiding to the government's title of criminals by raiding and attacking cities and worlds, stealing, killing, murdering.



But one ship managed to stay on what they saw to be the right path. When the war ravaged existence, the original crew of the Bloody Tail had perished in the war, save for the captain. For a while even after the war had ended, the Bloody Tail ship had sat anchored in a port on one of the few planets that allowed Pirates to remain, while this captain coped with the loss of the crew that had been together for years. But slowly the world around her started to shift and change due to the government's. Worlds and Planets were slowly started to become poorer poorer, some even dying completely. This left thousands even millions struggling with various problems and issues left behind by the war. The captain had witnessed this slow shift and realized that more and more people were in dire need of the old cheaper labor of what were now known as Pirates again. With that set firmly in mind, the captain set out to form a new crew.



PLOT OVERVIEW



Something is stirring once again. One by one worlds are falling and being killed off, saving a few that were taken over by a dark force. Governments and a secret force known as the Galactic Unity are frantically scrambling to keep these dark events hidden and covered up from the public eye. And they are somehow pulling it off. No one knows about the deadly wake of dying planets aside from the governments and force. And they plan to keep it that way as they frantically try to find away to battle this almost unknown force. Armies and masses of soldiers have been killed trying to battle it. And in one of the few last attempts to stop it, the crew of the Bloody Tail have been recruited to help.



NOTE: This rp will start with either being shortly after the crew had been assembled and they are all still adjusting to each other. Or with the crew being gathered together on the ship for the first time. I would say starting with they are all in the process of being recruited, but I have tried that in the past and it seemed to die too quickly. I will consider it though if I gain enough interest. In your interest post below, it would be helpful if you posted your opinion in it as well, but that’s just a request ^.^ Also I know I didn’t expand all that much on the plot, and that’s mainly due to a lot of it will be revealed as this rp goes. For the beginning peice of this rp it is mainly the crew doing the whatever jobs they can get ahold of, unaware of the dangers and unrecruited so far. The Galactic Unity will be brought in rather quickly to recruit them, but not exactly right away. If that was confusing, please ask any questions you have about it below and I will most certainly answer!

  • A friendly and fair attitude! Please no arguing, rude comments, etc in the OOC. Honestly guys, you should know the drill do I really need to explain this more??
  • As stated before, be active! I understand outside life problems and stuff, just let me know if you’ll be gone for longer than a few days and everything will be fine.
  • That you’ve read at least the open positions and these requirements. To make sure that you have hide one of the following words in your interest post below CX

    - (Chesire, Alice, Neptune, Wolf, Furry, Dragon, Rabbit - I know weird selection but at least I know you’ve read it now. ^.^)
  • This necessarily isn’t a requirement but more as a request, Voice to me any ideas or things you think would help with the plot. I love hearing other’s ideas on plots!



OTHER

  • Romance, side plots, risks, etc are all encouraged just run them by me in either a pm conversation or in the OOC in the hopefully soon to be created thread for this rp. If it involves anyone else's character, obviously run it by themselves. Again honestly do I need to state that xD
  • For those of you who might be wondering, for my CS’s they are typically semi-detailed, and for appearance I really don’t have a preference on what type you do, (Anime, written, realistic, or drawn) It’s really your choice, for me however I will be using more anime and more graphic digital type imagery (like the pictures on this thread) But again completely your choice.
  • Also as far as characters go, yes I am considering different species characters that aren’t human since this is a space based rp. Most likely I will allow more than just human characters. It really depends on the preferences of those who join.

THE SHIP


THE BLOODY TAIL




The Bloody Tail, before the war, was never a really well known ship. This was mainly due to when the crew first was formed, it was formed by the captain who, at the time, was only 20. This made for a rather more loose fitting crew. They gathered work easily and got their money easily enough that they ended up being a more of a rag-tag crew that was more carefree than the other ships. The war had hit one year after the crew and ship were originally established. The war had lasted two years, and after the first year, the crew of the Bloody Tail had enlisted themselves to help aid and fight in it, the crew seeing as it was time that they actually do something that matters. In an on ground assignment, there had been a horrible turn of events that resulted in the death of all the crew members, the captain being the only one to survive long enough to be rescued. Three years after the war had ended, the Captain reinstated the Bloody Tail, recruiting a new small crew along with it. The Ship itself will become more widely known after the crew is formed. Mainly due to the captain insisting on taking jobs from only those who are in more dire situations. Though it doesn’t make a whole lot of money, barely enough to keep them running, it provides a fail-safe for those who are in desperate need of help.



We are the thieves, the commandeers, we are the ones who run free, we are the ones who command the seas of stars, we truly live. We are pirates.

This looks rather entertaining, and I am definitely interested. The only problem is that I've never done a detailed RP before. I can do the three paragraphs, as well as the at least once every other day postings, but I may need some nudging in the right direction if I'm using too much purple prose. I don't want to be the one "dragon" the plot to a halt (that was bad). I'd probably be applying for the Pilot position as well.
 
Interested! I don't really mind where we start out, but I'll probably be applying for the doc role. Is any of this gonna be in the Earth solar system, like, will we get to see neptune?

@NemoTheSurvivor Great! That little thing in there made my day too ^.^ And small reminders will be given since I've already had one person request I do that cx. The reserved for you!


@whitefoxkiller okay so there's a small thing missing, so I just have to check before I reserve the placing for you. Make sure to read the requirements and edit your post to include one thing just so I make sure. Sorry just have to be sure ^.^ Thanks!

oh sorry, every single time, I swear to god.
 
@whitefoxkiller haha it works, thanks! and to answer your question probably yes, but it might be as a forgotten ruin like solar system that was long cleared out. ^.^
 
I find myself interested in either AI or Weapons specialist.


And I can roll with whatever start you consider.


I also can't think of a classy way to say Cheshire this early in the morning.
 
@Anarchist Great! I put you down for AI since it was the first thing listed cx If you want it changed to weapon specialist then just let me know ^.^


@whitefoxkiller and @NemoTheSurvivor I will create the thread as soon as I get at least one more person to fill a role ^.^
 
Can i be the weapon specialist


just read over the rules they seem fair enough just wondering are people allowed to play more than one role because my char was originally an assassin/doc but he does know a lot about weapons. Also not sure how to go about writing the bio would u be ok knowing of my char or something along those lines?

@Leo Radomir for sure, I just have to make sure that you read over requirments and know what your getting into. Edit your post just so I can make sure you did. Thanks!
 
@Leo Radomir we already have a medic in place so it wouldn't quite work. And I'm keeping it mainly to one role per person later on I might open it up to more than one role if more are created later on. It just makes it a little more organized and easier to keep track of.


And I'm sorry but I'm not quite sure what you mean by the last part?? Can you explain a little more??


--


The thread will be up sometime today hopefully, my coder said she would take care of most of it for me so we will do our best to get it up tonight ^.^

since were all criminals maybe your chars knows a little of my past because i'm imforuious yes sorry for the slightly bad spelling
 
@Leo Radomir not all characters are technically criminals to start with. The character backgrounds are completely everyones to choose obviously. So you can start as a criminal or not its completely up to you. Once on the crew all characters will be considered outlaws and criminals to the governments and alot of people. Before each member was recruited obviously they would have been warned about this.


As far as character pasts go my character will know only as much of the characters backstories as is genrally known. So anything that is related to personal thinggs like family history and relationships and things like that, my character wont know unless your characcter tells mine personally, or for some reason it is widely known by people.


I hope that made sense ^^

yes it does i'm just kinda low on ideas so that's why i'm trying to bounce them with u
 
Pawz said:
@Leo Radomir ah I understand, feel free to bounce more at me and ask questions if you need! ^.^
maybe i could of helped you out of a jam before but you only know my rep because of what people in the underworld have been saying and i could officially introduce my self when we meet again.
 
I am interested in this! The plot sounds fun. As for the Character role I'd like to be considered for, would be Foreign Relations.

No, not really.. I have an entirely different concept for a character. As of right now I have no real questions to ask, but I'll keep close attention to this however! I hope you consider me part of the "wolf pack" once this takes off.

I'd like to be part of the crew as the Foreign Relations! Going to 'Neptune' and beyond sounds like an exciting way to be an ambassador!
 
Good day. I have noticed that you are still lacking a Navigator, but could you provide a little information before I actively apply for the position? What type of propulsion systems exist in your universe? It seems a silly question I am sure, but having to work out transfer orbits is a bit more complicated than actually having a system capable of powering your flight from point A to point B. Also, if FTL travel is involved, what system would you be proposing? Hyperspace, Alcubierre style warp drive, gravitonic wormholing, something new and different? I want to be certain that I would be able to adequately cover all aspects of the job, so please forgive the torrent of questions.
 
@Leo Radomir That sounds like an interesting concept that we could go into more, you should pm me so we can talk about it more!


@Megadonkey30 and @CoyoteGhost So I'm not exactly sure on who the role should go to, since @Megadonkey30 had posted first, but @CoyoteGhost did make sure to indicate that he read the requirements. Though I am considering creating two positions for that role since it would be a lot that two characters could easily fill together maybe?? If that works for you guys obviously as well, let me know what you guys think about it please! ^.^


@Tarmagon Wow, that was a lot to figure out how to word correctly cx Okay to start since my reasoning is a little easier to explain, If I don't create something of my own or find a more unique and creative way of doing it, Hyperspace or an Alcubierre Drive will most likely be used since I myself am more familiar with those. As for your first question regarding propulsion systems, I'm not quite sure on the types and what I'm going to include as far as those go quite yet. I'm still working and planning out the smaller details like this for this rp. If you have anymore questions, ideas, comments, concerns, suggestions, ect, Please PM I would love to hear them and answer whatever questions that I can! ^.^


To Everyone: So sorry about the delay on getting back to you guys! I had a few problems come up and had a bunch of repairs I had to make to things! So So sorry on the delay! Also, I am going to hold of on any Character Sheets being sent in until the site comes back online since it is going offline soon. And I would hate for people to send in their characters, and then lose interest or something happens before the site is back online and the rp actually starts!! Here is a link to the current thread that is created for it: Taking The Stars If you would like to watch the thread and look it over. I am still accepting people, so for those above don't worry, your spots will be saved once I get a chance to edit it in, and all the kinks and small things are sorted out (what I mentioned above). Sorry on delaying everything!!

I'm sorry, I didn't realize Wolf had to be capitalized. And I don't mind doing something with Coyote! :D Besides my idea of foreign relations is shooting first asking questions later. I'd love to be Coyotes bodyguard / gun partner, there can never be enough explosions
