For @silvir @luna558 @Bishop @Stormheart @Windstormugly @Tal0n @Hazy @Sazama @ReusableSword @Vortex @BKburke @Elevation @Warborn123 @Kessir Tarkin @Atroposer



It's been almost an entire year since we last met. Where does the time go?

I did promise to put a mention on each and every one of you when I'm done with my OOC, and after almost a year, I have finally done just that. Because of how long it's been, I can understand if some or most of you can't participate this time around, that is just fine. But I did want to at least fulfill my promise to you all, and I have now done that.

--------------

Now then, to everyone else:

Welcome one and all, as the name suggests, this here's an RP where you are a newly enlisted pirate on the crew of...downright the strangest space pirate captain you will likely ever meet in your life. For whatever reason you heeded the call for crewmen and will take part in whatever absolute insanity the captain decides to throw you all into.

A little information regarding the world you are a part of:

FTL: The main FTL device in question is the Hyperdrive, the device designed for ships to cross through light-years via entering Hyperspace.
Shields: Shields are usually able to sustain projectiles of laser, low-to-medium grade plasma, and explosives. High-level plasma and heavy physical impacts along with excessive use of weaker weaponry diminishes the shields until the breaking point.
Weapons: All weapons are, in one way or another high grade. High-calibur rifles, laser, plasma, the works. Of course as time advance, even more advanced weaponry is possible to be made.
Robotics: The Robotics of the universe are about as advanced as one would think in a futuristic reality such as this.
Communications: Hyper-communication, or hyperdrive subspace communication.
Super materials: As the Empire expands, so too does the resources it gains from other planets. The ships created are usually considered to be classed by the quality of the materials its made from, even if that's not actually the case. Each material has its own strengths, but also weaknesses.
Mental powers?: Yes, Psychokinetic energies, telepathy, and other such psychic powers are a thing in this universe, and there are cybernetic enhancements designed specifically for the mind to further empower psychic energy.
Biotech?: Yes
AI?: Yes, advanced level AI to equalize to human levels of intellect and conscious thought.
Energy Storage?: Yes
Information Storage: Crystal processors, as well as quantum computing technology.

-------------------

Next thing to talk about are the Ships themselves. There are a myriad of ships used by the government, merchants, other pirates, and other types of travelers. However, regardless how they look or what modifications they may have to them, they all fall under six different classes of ships. Modifications made to them aside, all ships within a specific class usually has the same design and specifications to them.



















-------------------

Next, there's not much else to add about the Holy Britannian Empire. There isn't much to the government that some hasn't seen already in a corrupt authority. However, they are massive, as is their Domain.

Their dominion over a part of the galaxy is divided into 32 systems, with several planets in each. Each system is named after one of the legendary Knights of the Round Table, including King Arthur himself, and each has their own purpose to the empire, such as being a center of trade, commerce, scientific/medical research, military, etc. The Lancelot System, for example is the center of industrialization of products for the empire to use, as mentioned before.

With the exception of "Excalibur", the capital planet of the Arthur system, the "crown system" of the empire, all planets of each system is named after the system, with an Epiphet (Prime, Alpha, Beta, etc.) added afterwards. (Lancelot Prime,) for example. However, when the amount of planets in a system id larger than the number of epiphets that can be added, they become numbers instead. The "Prime" planets are usually the Capitals of their respective systems, except in numbered planets, in which the capital planets are "Zero Worlds". That being said, the names they are given are only that, "given". All planets do have a real name that they originally had before converting to imperial law.

Eventually, we intend on showing the entire list of 32 systems that the pirates are open to explore. For now, however, it is a work-in-progress.

One thing of note for all those who are experienced Mercs and criminals: Chances are you've been to or at least heard of the 32nd system of the empire, "Mordred". As Obi-Wan stated about Mos Eisley, "You may never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy." Mordred is essentially the social garbage bin of the empire. A system filled to the brim with corruption, villains, and criminals doing whatever they please. For pirates like yourself, you cannot find a better hub to gain knowledge and allies.

---------------------------------------

The Captain is looking for those of the following occupations:

Pilot: @Shadow Daedalus
Gunners (x2): @Lumiere
Deckhands/boarding party (any amount): @DeadDrop
Engineers (x3): @AngelofOctober
Surgeon: @Emma
Chef:

--------

Races:

- Humans (Self-Explanatory)
- Alori (Anthropomorphic Animals)
- Denar (Essentially elf-like humanoids)
- Other races are allowed.

-------------

So, do I have any one's interest?

Ok, I'll have that reserved for you.

@Jarl Coolgruuf and @DeadDrop if you two want to reserve spots for your characters as well, now's the time.

Oh, and anyone that are coming back from the old RP and had positions like Engineer, you don't have to worry. Just let me know and I'll add you in as extras that surpass the limit. Think of it as appreciation for coming back. ^_^

Tossing in my interest in spite of the staggering list of mentions.
If there is still room for a gunner or engineer (or really any room at all), count me in!

Just...wow, that's a lot of people. ._.

I only mentioned the people who were in the last RP. There's no guarantee that they'll join. So far it's looking like 6 people are interested.

Both Gunner and Engineer is open, so flip yourself a coin and pick one...Or both, I'm ok with people making more than one character. ^^

@Emma Absolutely. ^^

Ok then, I'll have a gunner reserved for ya.

Also, to everyone who's showed interest, (@Lumiere @Emma @DeadDrop @AngelofOctober @Jarl Coolgruuf and @Lady Ostara) I have two updates.

1. I'm giving you guys the CS early on to use for your characters.

Appearance: (image if possible, it doesn't matter whether it's an anime character, human or even concept art characters)
Name:
Race:
Age:
Gender:
Job:
Weapons:
Abilities:
Personality:
Short bio: (it doesn't have to be too long, but in depth characters are fine)

2. I've decided that not only am I allowing multiple characters, I'm also allowing for characters made outside of the crew...provided at least one of them is a crewman. You can make said characters whatever you wish them to be, but my personal recommendation is that we need some COs for this empire. XD

I'll wait for a while longer before posting the OOC to see if anyone else is interested. Specifically, 6 hours will do. ^^

I'd like to cast my interest, if you'll have me. I'd like to play an AI in a robotic body (or 'mobile chassis') if at all possible, and I feel a pilot or engineer would be best suited for him. If not, I'll be an Alori
