[i]No ship should go down without her captain. Well, then, I guess this ship isn’t going down. The USS Audacia is a Normandy-class ship running through the very edges of Union-controlled space. They’re just a scouting ship, they’re not toting lasers and torpedoes to the front lines, but what should have been a medium-stress operation just got a lot more tense: two days ago, Captain Catherine Ray vanished from the ship. After a top-to-bottom search, there’s no sign of the captain—there are no energy signals to follow, no hostile parties have boarded the ship, and even the dubious possibility of Captain Ray turning invisible has been ruled out. Tensions are rising as the crew searches for answers, but all that they have is a cryptic video message. In a decision agreed upon by a narrow majority, Union Command hasn’t yet been informed of the incident. The Audacia is a pretty ramshackle crew, and they’re...at least fifty percent confident they can finish their latest round of missions without the Captain. All they have is a small list of short, simple, straightforward milk runs that will go off without a hitch, and no one will be the wiser when they get the Captain back without incident. What could possibly go wrong?[/i] [center]------[/center] HEY GUYS im here for the first time in several years, and i have a hankering for SPACE. so, as the blurb above says, the basic premise is this: [list] [*]the captain of a space ship has gone missing [*]the crew (the player) is, understandably, freaking out [*]however, because the ship REALLY doesn’t need another reprimand on its record, they’ve decided not to tell anyone, and try to finish the latest mission before looking for their captain in earnest before anyone notices [*]cue the panic, trauma, and shenanigans! [*]think a mashup of mass effect (for the universe) and firefly (for the ship itself) [*]there will be some short-ish missions for plot, plus the time in between, and then the overarching plot of the Search For Captain Ray! [*]play any member of the crew you like! [/list] sooooo...anyone interested in joining me on this wacky adventure?
