Power failures reported across all decks! Gellar fields are flickering!" "Report: Engines power dropping. Current status: 66% efficiency." "Sir! Armsmen report daemonic incursions; they're spawning all over the ship!" "Cap! Cap! Navigator's dead, we're flying blind in the Warp! We need to drop out!" "Are ye crazy? An unplanned exit could be sendin' us all inna sun o' a black 'ole!" "We can't stay in the Warp, we'll be eaten alive by Hell itself Captain! Damned beyond eternity!" "Fires reported across 12- no, 23- no, 55-... Fire's everywhere important!" "Explosions are the cause! Multiple hull breaches on the starboard side, the ship is going to break up!" "Captain! What do we do!?" Every alarm, siren, warning and klaxon cried out across the bridge as Captain Helram clutched his hands in front of his mouth. He prayed that the God-Emperor would save them. That the thousands of souls aboard his ship would be saved and the vessel itself would miraculously repair itself. But instead every new report only brought more warnings and desperation. The bridge crew was shouting over each other and the alarms, their professionalism barely containing the rapidly growing panic of being lost in the Warp. Captain Helram stood up and silenced the bridge with a slam of the hilt of his sword. "Take us out of the Warp." He commanded before making a ship wide announcement: "Attention all crew, this is the Captain speaking. Brace for reentry. Emperor preserve us."[/i][/center] [hr][hr] Welcome to [b]Brave New World[/b], an RP taking place in the 40k universe of a transport ship crash landing on a lost planet not on any recent star charts. Based on [@Jamesyco]'s [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/185170-wh40k-lost-system/ooc]Lost World[/url] with his permission, BNW will focus on the shipwrecked survivor's attempts to settle this world and figuring out what caused their ship to crash. I will not be playing as singular character but instead act as the World and NPCs collectively like a traditional TTRPG GM. Normal RP rules apply: no godmodding, don't be a dick, etc. RP will start with the crash landing on this forgotten world and go from there. All PCs will be in a group together, ragtag and mismatched as it may be for narrative reasons (and to keep things manageable). Together you will achieve great things! And hopefully not die horrific deaths on a forgotten planet millions of lightyears away from home.

It primarily transports large amounts of settlers, civilians, pilgrims and Imperial Guard regiments on occasion. During the events leading up to the RP, it was carrying a mix of all four with settlers destine for another world, pilgrims on a journey to a shrine world and the remains of several varied Imperial Guard regiments who were all being combined into a mixed unit and assigned to a new theater.[/hider] [hider=The Planet] In Character, the nature of the planet will be a bit of a mystery for a little bit. Out of Character, the planet is a temperate world with vast forests, tall mountains, wide rivers and beautiful vistas. It looks like it could easily sustain a population. However there's also a ton of ruins scattered across the surface as the survivors will eventually find out. Some are Imperial and some are Xenos, but all look old. It seems that the crew of the Fortune's Dominion aren't the first people to land upon the planet. OOC, the name of the planet is Syrin-6.[/hider] [hider=The Settlement] (WIP, will be filled once IC begins.)

[/quote] [b]Some Thoughts:[/b] [list][*]Most civilians do not have military training and while the lasgun is easy to use, their accuracy is likely limited at best. [*]Feel free to make up your own IG regiments if you want to play as a guardsmen, just put the information about them in the Misc section. All of the regiments aboard the ship have mostly been decimated by war and originally planned to be rolled into a singular army for service. [*]Skills and Equipment can change as things progress. [*]Most normal humans cannot 1v1 a Tyranid Swarmlord or know how to a plasma generator works. Keep your character's history and abilities realistic. [*]Make characters not classes! It's okay if we end up having a party with a lot of one type and none of the other. All Guardsmen Party is an all time favorite 40k story and its only got a party of... guardsmen.
