[center] [i]Tell-Ir: The 3rd planet of the Trion system, a water world of great beauty and diversity not seen in all the Aquariums of the Scion Empire! A place of great scientific study for the marvelous forms of flora and fauna! Why not spare a few credits and come visit, you don't want to miss out! [/i] [/center] 

The flashing light flickered one more time before shutting down completely, it's seeming determination finally giving up the inexorable battle against a draining battery. With all signs of life depleted, the sign would slowly fall towards the surface of the planet, another piece of debris to fall back to a planet's surface. 

That however wasn't what concerned Ragmir, he'd been a researcher stationed on that damned planet once and he knew how underfunded everything was down there. It was at the edge of the empire, by the Builders! No one visited, or at least when someone did they didn't have much cash to burn, so a single satellite going down wasn't really that big of a deal. No, what really made him worry was that this was the last satellite going offline. 

There'd been no distress signal, nothing to indicate any power failings or attacks ... In fact he was actually just returning after 15 years away to catch up with all the researchers he'd left behind after finally getting a promotion to somewhere actually civilised. In all this time he'd always receive updates, small back and forths with ex-colleagues and never had any of them mentioned it closing, in fact they'd been really excited about discoveries of late. Even with the underfunding there'd been no corporate order to leave, in fact the research was still going strong, or at least as strong as it always had been. 

That this was all some sort of elaborate prank had crossed his mind, but ... to shut off everything? They didn't have the funding to replace all this, surely it couldn't be that! 

If he was gonna find out what was going on down there, he was gonna need help. The insectoid just hoped that he could find some in time.

Hey thanks for checking this rp idea out. I'm going for a kinda typical fun sci-fi action/adventure story here, with a couple of added extras. The majority of the plot will take place on the research base or beneath the waves below it so I hope you enjoy water. Its got an atmosphere of something close to subnautica crossed with Aliens (only without the instant slaughter of half the team within minutes of touchdown) There'll be time for some character development, as well as plenty of action scenes once the threat really gets going. 

The idea for your characters would be people at a local station who were interested by the money (or simply the adventure) and responded to Ragmir's distress call

Especially since this is my first one that I've GMed in a while, I'm not going to go too heavily into the rules. Just if making a sci-fi race for this, make sure it's not too powerful, I will be checking through on any applications to make sure they're reasonably balanced. Especially for the later stages. 

If people are interested I'll get to setting up a CS and Discord to further discuss. I hope you enjoyed the pitch. Feel free to drop me a PM too if you have any questions
