[b]WELCOME TO ORION[/b]

Hello, and welcome to Orion, the NRP where you construct a race and progress through the ages from primal to advanced. Gather resources, create trade routes, construct civilization, interact in diplomatic actions, and start war. Sorry for the short introduction... I will try to work on it later. This NRP does have partial tabletop mechanics, but only the stats. Read over the rules before creating a Nation/Race/Character, please.


[hider=Rules]

1: Do not disrespect other players. There will be zero tolerance for racism, bullying, hurtful speech, and disrespectful wording. Offenders will receive a PM court discussion and if found guilty, there will be a ban. First offenders will receive a PM Court discussion and if found guilty, a temporary ban.

2: No inappropriate content. This is not an 18+ RP. So nothing like that please. Offenders will receive a ban. First offenders will receive a temporary ban.

3: You start on the primal age. No acceptions or negotiations. Offenders will receive a character removal. First offenders will receive PM discussion and warning.

4: No godmoding. Offenders will receive a PM court discussion and character removal. First offenders will receive a PM discussion and warning. 

5: You have no starting technologies. This RP is about progression. You want it, you work for it. All offenders will receive a warning and PM discussion.

6: Resources are required! You need resources to build, craft, and refine things. No building things for free. All offenders will receive a warning, PM discussion, and IC post rework request (if applicable).

7: I do tolerate supernatural abilities like invisibility, telekinesis, water breathing, and so on and so forth, but there must be at least one flaw to each ability. Nothing is flawless. Offenders will receive a warning, PM discussion, and character rework request. First offenders will receive a PM discussion and character rework request.

8: If you have received more than 10 warnings within one month, you will receive a month-long ban.

9: If you do not respond to a PM Court discussion you will be immediately claimed guilty.

10: If you have offended any of these rules more than 20 times, you will receive a month-long ban.

That's all! Personally, I do not want to ban people, but if necessary, I will. I don't want to make this a court server, so please respect the rules. Thank you.

[hider=Information]

What is Orion? Orion is a massive planet in the far reaches of space within the milky way, but thousands of solar systems away from Earth. Here, alien life has flourished and lived on the massive earth-like planet. There are jungles, rivers, lakes, oceans, deserts, plains, and other kinds of biomes similar to earth. Intelligent alien life (you) has begun to rise on the planet and has started to build civilization. You will lead your civilization to glory, power, and prosperity. 

You can create any kind of race from bipedal to humanoid. As long as they make sense, can function realistically, and are not inappropriate, I am ok with it. Just no meme, absurd, silly, or illogical races, please.

[hider=Statistics]

Here is a list of stats and how your race is affected by them. Each Stat point can increase one Statistic by 1. Negative stats decrease a stat to negative, but you may use that stat for something else (basically D&D, Pathfinder, Dragon-age, e.g)

Strength (Str): Strength increases your races level of physical power. Strength allows you to complete specific tasks that require feats of physical power, like lifting a fallen tree, carrying heavy cargo, lifting a battle-axe, e.g.

Dexterity (Dex): Dexterity increases your races level of speed and reaction time. The higher your Dexterity is, the faster you can move, how much stamina you have, and how fast you can react to fast-moving objects. Dexterity allows you to complete specific tasks that require feats of speed, stamina, and reaction, like grabbing an arrow in mid-air, running along the side of a wall, climbing a mountain, e.g.

Constitution (Con): Consitution increases your races level of endurance. The higher your Consitution is, the more damage you can take, how well you can survive sickness, and how fast you heal. Constitution is a passive statistic, but it increases your chances of survival from disease, attacks, bleeding, e.g.

Intelligence (Int): Intelligence increases your races level of intellect. The higher your Intelligence is, the faster you can research technology and learn new things.

Wisdom (Wis): Wisdom increases your races level of thinking and research effectiveness. The higher your Wisdom is, the better your common sense is, how effective research is, how well your insight is, e.g.

Charisma (Cha): Charisma increases your races level of diplomatic action, leadership, and planning. The higher your Charisma is, the better your personality is, how well you can persuade others, how effective diplomatic action is, e.g.

___

Passive stats: These stats (bellow) are determined by your active stats (above). You multiply X stat by 2 and divide X stat by 4. The result will be the statistic level. 

E.G: 

Str: 3

Work = 3 multiplied by 2 = 6. 6 divided by 4 = 1.5. 

Work: 1.5

____
Work: Increases your races ability to harvest resources, build, craft, farm, e.g. The Work stat is determined by Strength.

Will: Increases your races ability to withstand psychological effects, insanity, e.g. Hivemind/technomind/controlled races do not require Will. This statistic is determined by Charisma.

Morale: Increases your races resistance to psychological abilities and natural psychological effects (retreating, breaking down, emotional failure, e.g). Hivemind/technomind/controlled races do not require Morale. This statistic is determined by Charisma.

Leadership: Increases your races ability to command others. The higher your Leadership is, the better you can command others. Hivemind/technomind/controlled races do not require Leadership. Leadership is determined by Charisma.

Endurance: Increases your races ability to survive heavy hits, bleeding, sickness, pain, e.g. The higher your Endurance is, the faster you recover from disease, pain, wounds, e.g, and how much damage you can take before death. Endurance is determined by Constitution.
