Ready for the Shit Show, Shaka Brah
WELCOME TO MURDER III: INTO THE STARS!
RULES
1.) A fair warning for all: You will be VERY BORED if you don't find someone to interact with, and I'm certain of this. I've ran RP events like this for -years-, and the key to success is character interaction. Therefore, you will need to find a partner, if you don't have one, I'll find one for you.
2.) So no one is ignored, I highly suggest you skim over other people's post. You don't necessarily have to read it all, but look for your character's name! Someone may want to talk to yah.
3.) If you're a traitor, all kills are done via PM -and- after the collaboration of your fellow traitors as to who to kill. In no way are you allowed to tell what your role is to anyone, doing so will result in immediate expulsion from the Murder event. Oh, and one final thing, if you're a traitor: Pray you aren't caught, lest you be subject to the mercy of the players.
4.) If you're not aware, if you're sentenced to die by a traitor via PM... it's an insta-death! But don't fret! Once you die, there's an “afterlife” game, whose plot will be told once the first player death occurs, and eventually, you'll find your way back to the players!
5.) I can guarantee you the first day will be absolute CHAOS. Why? People will be writing prologues, trying to find partners, etc. So, like #2, try to find a partner ASAP, keep calm, and try to skim through everyone's post, searching for your name. Eventually, as the Murder game continues on, it'll come at a steady pace... well, maybe not, there are +40 people.
6.) There will be moments where I ask players NOT to post; this is usually before large updates or mid-round updates. Please comply!
7. )Please, -please-, no godmodding.
8.) As much as I'm overjoyed (I really mean it!) with everyone's participation in my Murder event, please try to be active. You don't have to dedicate hours on in to this game, it literally lasts a -month-, so you're in it for the long-run. If you can post once a day, that's perfectly fine... but, of course, the more posts, the merrier!

IC INTRODUCTION FROM HERE:
Please, if you haven't listened to it, download the A Flock of Seagulls song, "I Ran So Far Away". The RP intro is somewhat synced to it. If it sounds familiar to you, it's an '80s song featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Link here:

Space.
A vast network of stars and lone celestial planets to the common man. To us, nothing lives here. For them, a universe in which the newly-christened Galactic Empire reigns supreme. All races, creeds, and governments pay homage to the Emperor and his Apprentice, Darth Vader- rejection results in death. It results in the genocide of a million, perhaps, billions of civvies inhabiting your home world.
It is unwise to challenge the Empire.
For your planet, your galaxy, the multiverse...
IS NOTHING TO THE EMPI-
((A jive '80s guitar solo hums in the distance...))
Hm?
“WOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!”
A young 35 year old Caucasian male whooped excitedly from his junker's cockpit, idly dodging a barrage of TIE fighter laser cannons harrowing his ship. A loud, obnoxious tune—at least, according to the Imperial pilots—rang from the Empire's comm-links, transmitting from, as they discovered moments ago, this “Star Lord's” 1980s FM Radio.
I walked along the avenue...
A little raccoon man... thing... laughed like a lunatic as he swung his manned turret in a 45 degree angle, firing off a long burst, a super-heated blast detonating one the TIE Fighters in an explosion of bright orange and yellow...
“That's right baby! Right in the freakin' kisser!”
I never thought I'd meet a girl like you...
The remaining four TIE fighters flew into a diamond-shaped formation, their squad leader dead, killed by some damn anthropomorphic raccoon.
Meet a girl like you.
An Imperial pilot glared at the junker's rear, an inscription 'The Milano' was shoddily sprawled across in black ink. The junker, or 'The Milano', was sleek and futuristic-looking, but old, even by Rebel Alliance standards, beaten up, and it's blue-yellow-and grey frame riddled with dust.
With auburn hair and tawny eyes...
Banking to the right, a TIE fighter swirled elegantly around, adjacent to The Milano, training it's twin-linked ion cannons menacingly toward a nearby engine...
The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through...
BOOM!
A powerful shot plowed straight into The Milano's right engine, stalling it in a burst of sparks and debris. Large chunks of metal, wire, and gas pumped out lifelessly into space...
“Quill, we're going down!” Screamed a fair, green-skinned female.
Hypnotize me through.
The young male, named Quill, looked out into the depths of space: A massive, moon-sized space station met them. He rolled his eyes in disbelief, “Are you friggin' serious?! C'mon, the Death Star! No way we're going in--”
And I ran, I ran so far away...
And ran so far away they did. Quill was cut off, his ship spun out of control, twirling in circles, a stream of fire and smoke trailing their movements, “Hold on!”
I just ran, I ran all night and day...
An Imperial pilot grinned, targeting systems locking onto The Milano...
I couldn't get away.
… Only to explode in a brilliant flash, the TIE fighter's hull sprayed across the vast emptiness of space.
The three remaining Imperial pilots glanced back, their NAV systems picking up massive heat signatures radiating in huge swaths of red: A Rebel Alliance Assault Force arrived.
PROLOGUE:
“In a Multiverse far, far away...”
“Are the prisoners secure?”
Ensign Officer Joss Hanson, a young, all-too-inexperienced Imperial officer peeked through a little hatch containing Vader's “VIP Prisoners”-- or you. He smirked, what was so damned important about some two-bit rebels? Shrugging, he flicked a flashlight within your cell: It was a tight fit, especially with over 40+ individuals housed in a 60x80 foot prison block. It was dark, dingy, and worst of all, smelled of dirt and sweat.
You had no weapons. No powers. No hope.
… Nullified or taken away by the Galactic Empire...
You groaned uncomfortably in your bunk bed, an audible 'creeek' met your ears, your weight snapping a few hinges within it's metal frame. BAM! Gohan's upper bunk tore in two, landing above a very poor, very squished Khan. Whatever. You've been here for approximately a week, captured by a squadron of elite Stormtroopers down at Tattoine-- and now, you were stuck with abuncha strangers, most of whom you've met within confinement.
The Ensign Officer bore his flashlight at Aladeen's Middle Eastern features, cocking a brow, a sinister grin crept across his features, “Well- well- well, what do we have here? Ha ha! We've got royalty, boys! How about--”
BOOOOOOM!
An explosion rang into the distance...
The Officer was cut off-- a metal shard collapsed from Cell Block's iron-plated grating, a jagged edge puncturing his eyeball, shredding his tongue from the force of the blow, sending bits of teeth into the roof of his palate. He gurgled, blood oozing from his ruined lips, falling backward... pitifully moaning as he choked to death.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Another explosion.
Looking outside, you noticed Officer Hanson voiding his bladder through his gray slacks--his compatriots, failing to care, rushed into action, their white-heeled boots stepped over his corpse like an obstacle course. Damn, this was chaos. The Cells were catching fire, angry flames lit into an inferno, licking the reinforced iron mainframe of your prison blast door. Dammit, you thought, any closer and we're done for!
A sophisticated British-esque voice boomed in the intercom:
“We are under attack! Man your battle stations! This is not a drill! I repeat, this is not a drill!”
You saw emergency lights scream in protest, a red hue encircling the narrow corridors of Cell Block B, where you were held. Stormtroopers lined in by the droves, screaming commands in a frenzy, flicking the safety off their blaster rifles. Ah- you heard it now: The distant echo of ion cannons discharging met your ears- perhaps it was the Rebel Alliance you heard so much about? Yes! If it was, you were FREE of this hellhole!
Bzzt!
An intercom buzzed on the wall near the steel door, painted green, the design sleek and futuristic: “Hello? Hello? Do you hear me?” The voice was feminine, sporting a British accent, but the signal was weak, as if someone or something was attempting to block it out.
It's time to escape.
Between now and 10 PM MST tomorrow night, Tuesday, is the prologue period. Feel free to post your character prologue. If you complete your prologue or opt not to post one, feel free to engage in character interaction!
