I've been playing around with this idea for a while now, and was wondering if anyone would be interested in playing it out.
I'm not too big on the details, as far as the universe goes. I know that space travel is possible, and pretty easy at this point, and there's lots of different forms of intelligent life out there. I'm just not sure how the government is, or what kind of factions would be involved.
Colonized zone 1988 - The physical plain in which human beings, and the other habitants of this universe exist.
The Black Sea- The infinite space between universes where all of the reality truly resides. Within this space, all dimensions as well as the massive amounts of various surging energies, exist. Since there are an infinite number of universes, an infinite number of possibilities, life forms, types of energy and matter, exist.
Floaters-Beings capable of interacting with the black sea. The amount of connection each floater has with the sea, varies, but the more prosthetic they have, the weaker their connection grows. Aside from the ability to interact with reality, Floaters also gain a few other abilities like an expanded life span, an ability to recover from almost anything(with enough time) They connect to the Black sea by mentally connecting themselves with the black sea. Basically, their pushing psychic fingers over the waters, and creating waves in reality . There are various methods in which their able to do this. These methods are broken down into four groups: Arts, Manipulations, Tearing, and Symbolics. I might add more later on.
Arts-Skills handed one generation to another after a long period of time. These are usually quick skills or abilities that can be called upon on a moment's notice. These abilities gain their power because of generations of psychic imprints, and are usually stronger, the older they are. It's pretty simple. The more minds believe something will work, the better it'll work, and that's where arts get their edge. Of course, their not all powerful. They tend to be pretty precise in what their doing, and so aren't very versatile. Also, there's no room for error with an Art. If you don't have the exact thoughts in your head, or the perfect body position then either nothing will happen, or the whole thing will blow up in your face. Arts are more draining, physically, than other methods, because the body is used as a conduit for the Black sea's power to flow through.
Manipulation- The ability to change, or alter matters.
Tearing-Forcing holes in the black sea to allow for matters, or energies to come through from other dimensions. The user must be in the proper mindset to bring about the desire substance, and have the right amount of focus, because failure to do so could result in 1. The wrong kind of substance's appearance, the wrong amount, nothing at all, or an explosion of energies.
Symbolics-Bringing about effects through symbolic means This is like voodoo dolls, or tracking spells.
That's what I have so far. There's a lot more to come, but I've got an early full shift tomorrow.
