Hello. I am involved with the creation of this RP; Me and Iso have cooperated to bring you this much smaller scale "interstellar" RP. We are open to player input and this NRP's setting is cooperatively created. While the frame work for the present day has been established, there is still vast amounts of lore unfilled and many worlds unclaimed. I should note that Iso intends to be Mars, while I will be about the Luhman system [someone join me in the frost pot!] To address a couple potential questions: [i]Q:[/i] Many of your worlds for extrasolar planets are blank besides Hell. Will you fill them out? [i]A:[/i]The extrasolar worlds are mostly blank beyond their basic classification intentionally. This is to allow for player freedom in world making. I placed a base classification for each world as a base template for you, the player, to expand on. Note that some worlds have a couple "special" modifications. For instance the desert-like worlds in Epsilon Eridani are actually desolate. If you want to change the type of a planet, please discuss it with me or iso. As for "hell", that world actually exists. It is a real exoplanet in the centauri multi-star system. Due to incomplete data on exoplanets, creative liberties were taken in adding exoplanets that may or may not exist. However, exoplanets that are known to exist or speculated to exist in the star systems selected for use are there. For instance the gas giants orbiting Epsilion Eridani or the aforementioned "hell" world. [i]Q:[/i] Can I make alien species? Perhaps even intelligent ones? [i]A:[/i] Alien fauna is likely to exist, and mind you don't just have to restrict alien life to earth-likes. For instance a titan-like world may have very exotic forms of life and a gas giant may have floaters. The worlds, being player defined means that what worlds have life will be figured out as the RP develops. For this RP is in part a collaborative world building RP; the setting is built with multiple players together off the template given by us. As for intelligent life keep in mind the following: There is only four star systems overall in this RP, and one already has intelligent life [sol]. However, if there is to be any intelligent life [expect a long debate] I and Iso would prefer it if they are alien from a cultural, physiological, biological, and psychological standpoint. I personally also would prefer it if you made them primitive; in that they are to be no more advanced than per say the greeks or sumerians. If you intend to make a human-like race, be a human civ instead. If you wanna be a primitive human race, be a Terran civ.' [i]Q:[/i] Fast as light engines? [i]A:[/i] Basically warp drives, but more balanced as they are incredibly expensive to use to the point where using them for interstellar travel is incredibly hard to do; very few, select times in four hundred years of human history has this drive been used for interstellar travel. They're great for rapid interplanetary travel for those specialized ships however. @Iso The earth-like moon should be orbiting that gas giant like this: -[Gas giant] -[Earth-like] -[Barren moon]
