Bio

Hi and welcome!

I started roleplaying about 18 years ago and have recently returned to it because I missed it. I most like adventurous sci fi and fantasy, or more slice of life to action action filled modern day magic and mutants. I'm not into fandoms anymore and I'm not looking for romance roleplays either.

Often people create dark characters with heavy pasts. I do that sometimes too, but my character will then have a 'that's just life. Deal with it' attitude instead of feeling sorry for themselves. I also enjoy playing characters without such a heavy past. I enjoy the sciences so playing a scholar or mechanic is right up my alley. I also practise martial arts, but thougg I oike playing fighters, they are more the stealth characters than the muscled ones. I don't like hormonal (teenage) characters. I don't take death lightly so unless I'm playing an assassin my characters will look for ways to avoid murder.

Lastly, I love being a GM and controlling an entire world. I have some sci fi and modern fantasy worlds in my mind which I would like to play out here. I'm also a regular player, mostly casual where description is limited to what's necessary rather than describing every step, scent, bite or thought that occurs.

So that's a little about me. How about you?

@Blue2 I've a dedicated RP Discord channel if you need any set up. There is no (feasable) limit the people and channels. And yes, you can use PMs to talk in private.

Thanksgiving is this Friday I beleive.


Alright, if you have a link for discord. Any ideas on how to do it with characters? Make a character thread in discord, does that work?
@Letter Bee see previous post
@Blue2 Its kind of optimistic to make new threads for every x amount of people. The usual turnout rate is somewhere around 60-70%. Not to mention that a lot of people drop out or lag behind by week 2, save for a few rare RP cases.

If I were you, I wouldn't start rethinking the whole setup. Plus we could always just run as a fleet of ships in the same thread. Have 2-3 ships and each crew could do different things on the same mission.

I'm down with any role to be honest, I dont havr any particular characters in mind. I'm mostly here in the hopes of having a consistent group.


I was planning on making multiple threads and hope one of them would make it for the long term. But if we're all running in discord then when people drop out the remaining crews might blend into one (as if someone quit their job and a replacement is sought) to continue so that's a good idea. I'm not so big on the fleet idea, though. Most missions would be for one crew only, or it would get weird.

I only recently started using discord. Is there a limit to the amount of channels you can make for a group? Also, you can speak with people privately, right? Because sometimes someone in the group might be privvy to info the others don't know. And I'll have private questions for the captains for sure.

On a side note, isn't it thanksgiving somewhere this week for America?
@Blue2 I wonder if it is necessary to make multiple RPs at the same time for one concept. I mean you can make like multiple ships in the same world.


That's possible, then we would need different starting points and a way to make it clear which character belongs to which story line
@Blue2 Yo, still got space?


If we get another captain I can make a third crew
Maybe, but I don't really want to impose on anyone if my character concept causes such a problem...


Then I suggest you check with the captains if either would be okay with that.
@Letter Bee I could also make up a quest where your character gets rescued. You'd then spend some time on the ship before the nearest port is reached, which could be a trial period to see if your character works
@Blue2 possibly new alien technology the crew acquires while in space? Like he or she would examine the technology they came across and see if it has a viable application to medicine


If this character can implement alien tech does that make him/her a mechanic as well?
I am thinking a former slave, 18 - 23, who doubles as a weapons specialist. As for the 18+ content, well, my slave is a bisexual male who has a bit of a libido. I have gotten in trouble before for playing characters who find almost every other PC hot, and so I am trying to establish strict limits beforehand.


I can see how it could cause trouble to have a character with libido. I guess in that particular case it would be up to the captains if they want to take you aboard their ships since they get a hand in picking their teams

@Letter Bee what kind of character would you like to play? And what kind of 18+ content? I put down 18+ because I'm open to a lot. I don't currently have a quest planned with bodies ripped open (I'm not much into gore), but as this story plays in the lesser controlled regions subjects like violence, human trafficking, assault and death could happen. Since the captains and their crews get to pick what quests they embark on (and because I intend to use discord for communication) this can be directed by the questers
