Futuristic Welcome to the S.S. Albion.

[Count Gensokyo]

     Welcome to the Skyrian Service-ship Albion. It's good to have you joining us today.





     This newly instated assault carrier is truly a beauty of the Skyrian Navy. She has enough firepower to cleave the moon in two: trinities, lasers, missile salvos, cannons covering all angles, and the signature of all Skyrian carriers—the Omega Cannon. Her hull is reinforced enough to sustain damage in even the most hectic of battles, and her fighters and mechs number in the hundreds. 


     The captain of this esteemed vessel is one Leo Greene, who has a last name very befitting of his level of experience. Fresh out of Sanctorum Academy, this new officer still has much to learn about the subtleties of his ship, the capabilities of his crew, and the ways of the battlefield.


     Now on a training run in between Skyria and its moon, Greene seeks to prove and better himself in the way of space-fare so that he and his crew can be formally inducted into the service and protection of their home planet. 


---------------------------------------------------------


     Get to know your fellow crewmates as you find yourself caught in the tension of a brewing conflict between the Indivisible Order of Unified Systems (IOUS) and the Galactic Alliance of the People (GAP). Perform odd jobs across the galaxy to gain funds for the ship, including mercenary contracts, escorts, excavations, exploration, and more. Become a member of the Albion and fight for your home! Welcome aboard.

What are Skyrians? How did Greene get command of a capital ship as his first posting instead of something smaller?


Also this sounds really cool.

 

[slim]

Are there other species besides human? I'm pretty interested.

    Thanks! 


     Skyria is an "earth-like" planet in the "neutral zone" of the galaxy which has its own government and military. Its populace is almost entirely human. 


     New Sanctorum, the capital city, has a "Centennial Project" and a "Quarter-Centennial Luck" event, each happening every century or twenty-five years, respectively. The project is like a New Year's Resolution for an architectural project, and the luck event is the equivalent of a more creative version of the lottery. It's funded by people in hopes of increasing the chances of it happening to them. This twenty-five years, the theme was to give a random officer at the academy access to a carrier. With navy production doing well, something like this could happen. Greene just so happened to be the winner of this. (Also, the plot demands it, lol).


     All of this is still a running idea, so realism checks aren't entirely out of the question, lol.

This has to be some kind of prank one admiral is pulling on another.

 

[Field Marshall]

Interested

     I think most characters will end up being human, but other species are not out of the question! Feel free to have your character be another species! Might have to look it over a bit, but you'll most likely be accepted as long as nothing is too outrageous, haha.

 

[Wixard]

Alright well I'm gonna start flinging species ideas at you like crazy. Ship that big's gotta take a lot of administrating to run. Maybe even multiple AI. Can I be an AI hologram?

     Yep, you bet! I'd like having someone to bounce ideas off of, for sure. Planning some events beforehand will be the key to keeping this going.

okay, genetically modified soldiers and pilots? for increased toughness or better reaction time/spacial awareness?

     Sounds like a good idea. Genetically augmented people and cyborgs should be in earlier stages, as this might lead to some characters being OP. Basically, they shouldn't lead to a character being nigh undefeatable.

 

[cadence]

I'm intetested. 

 

[Fire]

I kinnda want to be a space elf. Maybe an avain.. Oh! Space-Bird Elves! Who happen to be predominantly ninja pirates,

maybe the higher-ups build in limitations to avoid insurrection?

     Ooh, another good idea.

That would make sense, though they could possibly just brainwash them.

 

[Wixard]

Speaking of which, I pooosted a space story I wrote a bit ago on my blog yesterday. It's kinda long but might give you some ideas. beneathpages.wordpress.com

     There might be questions about the ethics of that stuff, which wouldn't be good for the reputation of the military. People who were crippled have otherwise been given new limbs to function with, along with other such benefits.

Touché.

i'm thinking a spiced human with dragon dna are you with that sort of thing?

    Might be a bit of a stretch. Once I have the hosted project skeleton up, you can submit a CS, and I'll review it.
