It's so bad for some people that companies "Silence" people who attempt to report on the darker side of their actions; With new aliens being constantly found, corporations give them contracts and work them to death as free labor and even enslaving races that are unknown to the public. With all the darkness in the Galaxy, with people disappearing for finding out too much or for having a rare condition to gene mods that gave you a third arm or leg; people choose to stand up to the corruption of the powerful by any means there's a group with a chip on their shoulder that choose to take up arms against the evil companies. That's where the Black Void come in, they are a group of "pirates" who chose to fight back against this evil in their own way, the crew of the Wyvern are people from nearly all walks of life, all with their own reason for taking up arms under their captain, while some of them have been mostly back stabbed by a corporation, some of them are there simply to cause anarchy while also striking it rich under their captain. Their ship, The Rusty Wyvern is a customized light freighter with enough room to hold a couple fighters and still have enough room to hold most of their equipment and loot from their heist or raids; The Wyvern despite it's aged outer appearance has numerous advanced modifications to boost the ship's speed, weapons, and shields. With a Slam overdrive system in it's engines, the wyvern is able to use acceleration bursts to move quickly or perform evasive maneuvers, along with that it could also fly faster than most other ships in atmosphere. Fitted with Duralloy from capital ships, four quad laser cannons, two concussion missile tubes, makes the The Rusty Wyvern both a formidable foe and hard to catch freighter for Peacekeeping ships. [hider=The Rusty Wyvern] [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/QnqDuVf.jpg[/IMG] [/hider] In our time of the galaxy, people have many choices, one of the choices that will impact most of the crew is the weapon you choose to kill or maim others with, and with the future being as advanced as it is, there are more ways than one to make a corpse in our galaxy besides just spacing them out the airlock. [u]Lead[/u] One of the more surprisingly common weapons in the galaxy, even with the invention of energy and plasma weapons, Mercs and soldiers still stick to using rifles that spit bullets, while in our day in age some people use body armor or even shield generators as a form of defense against others bullets do solid damage against shields and unarmored targets with bullets doing lesser damage against armored targets and some machines. [u]Energy[/u] The usual weapon for most techies or people who want to have a laser show in their palm or bodyguards who don't want bloodshed, while they aren't all perfect, energy weapons whether it be a laser rifle or heavy laser pistol do more damage against shielded targets machines, while doing very little damage to armored target, but most if not all energy guns come with a feature to stun unarmored targets to capture. [u]Plasma[/u] One of the more deadlier weapons of the galaxy, plasma guns are one of the more hard hitting weapons of the galaxy being able to melt armor but doing nothing to shields, being super heated kinetic plasma it also melts unarmored targets if they are fired upon enough times or have a frail form, usually people with plasma weapons steal them from soldiers in massive armies, buy them for a small fortune of credits. [hider=Classes] [hider=Commando or Merc] Commandos are pretty much what you think they are on the tin, men, women, aliens, who specialize in fighting in the front lines, or fighting people head to head. Commandos depend on a good battle plan and tough armor more than anything else; they overpower their foes with sheer strength and determination, all while defending themselves with all manner of weapons and equipment that are made to overwhelm your opponents with sheer power, usually they are former soldiers, people with a death wish, or people who just like hurting others. [/hider] [hider=SharpShooter or Sniper] Besids just looking sharp while shooting their enemies, Sharp shooters are closely similar to mercs and smugglers, but relying mostly on far ranged combat than up close and personal combat, while all of them don't specialize in it, some sharpshooters are capable scouts and spotters for their teammates helping them get an idea of the enemy advancing on their position. Most if not every Sharpshooter is a former soldier of some kind with formal training and skills to help them in their sniping spotting and counter sniping. [/hider] [hider=Techie or Engineer] Techies or Engineers if you want to be fancy, rely heavily on their intelligence and aim in a fight, but they also rely on using the technology against their enemies such as boosting their shield generators, leaching energy from enemy shields, and even remote hacking robots and turrets, one of their greater abilities are controlling multiple drones at once to do their bidding in a battle. Engineers are or formerly were hackers or people who chose to be smarter than commandos and fight against their enemies without the chance of being shot in the face. [/hider] [hider=Gunslinger or Smuggler] Gunslingers, or rather a better word for smugglers, are people who have learned to shoot first in a fight and use dirty tactics to get ahead of others while shooting from the hip and being sneaky, one of their often moves are kicking below the belt and using flash bangs or the low budget pocket sand to blind their enemies while in mid combat and choose to let their sturdier allies do most of the heavy lifting in a fight to stay alive. Gunslingers are mostly people such as former pilots with impressive reflexes and quick thinking choosing the life of crime for more money than they are being paid or the thrill of nearly being killed while flying. [/hider] [/hider] The Aliens in the galaxy, some are what people exactly expected them to be looking like, while others just look more surprising than other have thought. Planet filled with small green men check, planet with small brown hooded people with glowing yellow eyes check, planet of humanoid lizard people check, planet of ant-like people check, planet with cat girls or dog girls or wolf girls, check, check, check. If you can write it well enough and add backstory to the race and home world they come from, and if it's good enough I'll allow it.
