Alright...

Looks like I've got to clear up a couple major issues. First all, no space magic. This includes psychics, telepathy, and all that. In addition, mucking with time travel and teleportation isn't going to happen either, or a million and a half different reasons. Also, if it has no feasible explanation at all, it might be time to switch ideas. A more clear banlist will come out with the OOC.

Also, space pirates! A lot of us are right. Space pirates in and of themselves CAN ply the space routes, pillaging the little guy. However, good luck surviving an attack on a strong, large faction with well-defended borders. Also, be aware that you'll be always be hunted like an unwanted, wild animal. As for a space pirate NATION... You're simply asking for someone to come attack you -- no, begging for someone to come attack you. Most established factions hate piracy, as it is not conducive to good order in the galaxy, never mind their own faction. As for space CRIMINALS, that's perfectly fine on any level. However, they require quite a lot of finesse to write, so if you're not up to the task, I suggest you abandon the idea.

Also, NPCs... Their creation is encouraged. However, be aware that they are assumed NOT to exist until an NPC NS is put up. You can make any number of NPC factions for the setting. Just be aware that they are not in your control, and can get messed up at any time in the RP.

More details will be there when the OOC is (finally) up.
