Captain's Log: Stardate...Aw, fuck it.

Last crew's done for. Tends to happen when some of my people finally catch up to me. Shame; they were almost half-decent. Managed to shake them off, and the ones I didn't shake off, well...We're a warrior race, you can figure it out. Gonna need to find some new hands on deck, I barely even understand half the crap on this ship. Granted, doesn't help that I had to steal a new one...

Heard of a little asteroid dive diner called The Milky Way. Talk about creative....Still, if the rumors hold some ground, it seems like a popular spot for those running a bit below the law. If Lady Fortune's still lettin' me take her to the barn dance, I'll be able to find someone who knows how to press buttons, maybe patch a wound or two...Hell, having someone who actually knows how to throw a punch or shoot a gun would be a nice change of pace. I'm strong, but it ain't a captain's job to always have to throw his damn weight around...

...Alright, looks like I'm close. Arrived in the later hours to avoid any unwanted attention. Not seeing any members of the Intergalactic Patrol around, and the scanners (assuming I'm using this damn thing right) isn't picking up anything nearby. Seems I'll be clear to head in. For the love of the stars, please just give me a clean in-and-out for once...


Hello interstellar writers! I'm here proposing a new RP; The Star-Breakers! This would follow a group of space-faring outlaws trying to make their way in life, dodging the long arm of intergalactic law, and preferably making a couple thousand credits for their troubles as well. The overall vibe of the story will largely depend on the characters designed for it. And speaking of...

Ideally, I'm looking for around 6-8 players, and I already have a few possibly slated for it, so slots may get tight quick! If you're interested in this idea, you'll definitely need to try and be quick on the draw. Beyond that, character-wise, I'm looking to be very open on possibilities. If you have an idea for a character, I'll likely try and run with it; the general idea for this setting is kind of a hodge-podged Sci-Fi universe, with a little bit of everything, from the Saiyans of Dragon Ball, to the Kree of Marvel, or anything in between! Even feel free to come up with your own stuff, if ya want. The hope is for it to feel very open to any kind of character concept, so that players can have fun with what they wanna do most!

I'll likely be making the RP within the next few days, so be sure to speak up if you're interested! With this all said and done...

This is Captain Kura, signing out.

Hmmm, got an idea for a navigator. Or a ship engineer, if such roles aren't taken. I do like me a good sci-fi across-the-stars rp.

I would appreciate some more info. Are we supposed to all be the crew of one ship and know each other already? Do you have a "plot" in mind, or "events"? I have noticed that oftentimes RPs die when there is no direct "next step" and "goal" presented to the group. So would we have missions or anything? (I'm thinking of it kind of like quests in an open-world video game if that makes sense.)

Are you looking for only humans as characters or can we go wild and invent new races from other solar systems like sci-fi often does?

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me. I'll stick my nose in tentatively as I massage my brain. I had many of the same questions as Benz.

@Benzaiten @Fading Memory

I'll be happy to answer these questions, though admittedly the one about potential races was mostly brought up in the initial post, but I'll reiterate; not only do I expect races other than Humans (although they'd still be more than welcome), but you're more than welcome to either come up with your own or use existing Sci-Fi races from other forms of media; of course, some may come under scrutiny and be somewhat edited to better apply to the setting, but otherwise? Sky (or rather, space) is the limit!

Now, rounding back to your question of the crew and whether they've met. Initially I was planning roleplay the recruitment process, but....Admittedly it'd be simpler to have you all be there from the word 'Go'. Still, this crew likely wouldn't have known each other for long; at most, the oldest members of this crew may have been with Captain Kura for a month or two. Want to give off that 'fresh team' feel, where they're still messy and learning about each other, with plenty of problems and fun therein to play out.

As for goals, you pretty match landed it, hammer to nail. The intention is for there to be smaller arcs of time with the team going after small jobs, usually meant more for time to get some casual PC roleplay in when shit isn't crazy. Then, when I feel like it's a good time, we move onto their next big-time job that'll serve as a much larger arc that will play out over a longer period of time, with plenty of action, drama, and general chaos and tomfoolery in comparison to the bite-sized missions.

Hope these answers please ya! If you got more questions, I'm happy to oblige.

Oh, and on a more random note, good to see ya again Memory! Been a bit since that NYC Marvel RP lol

Sounds good to me, boss.

And yeah, thought your name was familiar, thanks for shaking the cobwebs loose. I'm on board with this idea :)

Interested enough to agonize over what sort of character to make.

Interested. Can't wait to be the destructive gunner man of my dreams. Or turn it around and be a space samurai. :p

I'm happy to announce that the RP is now officially active! Now, I can't guarantee everyone here a spot, given that, frankly....This found a lot more traction that I expected lmao. So it'll be first-come-first-serve on characters, but I'll be sure to fit in as many of you as I can manage. Looking forward to seeing you all among the stars!
