"They said Vega Prime was cursed."​

They said the war left it bleeding red dust and corpses. Said the ghosts were just leftover code in broken droids and glitching AI. Said the miners, the mercs, the colonists—all of them were gone.

They were wrong.

Something still stirs on Vega Prime.
Something ancient.
Something angry.
And it’s calling.

You are part of a crew—smugglers, drifters, mercs, and outcasts—answering that call. Maybe for the credits. Maybe for the truth. Maybe because you’ve got nowhere else to go.

You land in the dead of night.
Red fog rolls across rusted landing pads.
Flickering signs from abandoned outposts twitch like they’re trying to speak.

And somewhere, deep beneath the old mines, the Heart of Vega pulses—waiting.

Don’t worry, I haven’t either. But if it’s gonna be like this, hmmm. That might have to change.

You should know there's one other person gunning for that spot already (if it makes any difference to you)- don't think anyone is after the Outlaw yet though (pun intended ;P ), so might be a safer bet.

Here's the lore- any chance you'd be interested in the Captain role?
(I too like scifi, metal music, and arthropods ._. )

 

[miyabi]

i am staring respectfully at the techie

 

[KageYuuki]

Ohhh this seems kinda cool if you're still looking. Granted I'd have to come up with a character to fit one of the slots lol

I believe we still need a captain, if you're interested in that role!

 

[KageYuuki]

I have a loose idea that might slot in with that role

You're welcome to post a character sheet! It's due by Wednesday, according to the GM. You can ask them for an extension if needed, since you're coming in late.

Yeah pretty sure that deadline was specific to the players who already stated they were interested in a role/working on a sheet last week.
