Sci fi questing adventure, small crew wanted.

I posted this earlier:

@Zhaeth: captain/weapons guy
@Conscripts: captain/navigator
@Illiren: Pilot/weapons guy/chef
@cashmeoutside: Pilot/engineer/contact
@Helo: Muscle/mechanic/pilot
@spencerishere: Medic/alien tech specialist
@JewelProphet30: Medic/chef
@Sierra: unknown

There are two captains. I also see two pilots, two engineers and two medics medic. One more engineer/mechanic would be handy for cashmeoutside, so a pilot doesn't have to leave his helm to go fix the ship.

Slyboy and letter bee came later so their submissions need to be added to this list but I don't know if anyone's gonna drop out yet.

Did you get the pm? Cashmeoutside didn't so I don't know if I spelled just the name wrong or the whole group pm went wrong sonce I can't find it in my history either.

((I sent this sheet through PM. If you haven't received it, please let me know))

Dear all,

Thank you for your interest in my sci fi quest adventure world. I hereby provide you with a character sheet to fill in.

-By submitting this form, you agree to make use of discord where this roleplay will take place. The link will be provided when I receive your form.

-You will do your best to post daily. It's a free to casual roleplay, so I don't need entire chapters, just enough to keep the story moving.

-You also agree that if you do not respond for 48 hours and others are waiting for your character before they can move on, I may step in and reply for you instead. If you can be reached I will discuss the next move with you. Otherwise I will improvise.

-If you don't reply for a week without explanation, your character will be written out of the rp and replaced. If you have a reason why you can't reply for a while we can find a way for others to move on without you (your character could fall ill, be asleep, take some personal time...)

On a happier note, the character sheet:

Name:
Age (18+):
Appearance:
First position:
Other skills:
Personality:
Strong points:
Weak points:

Family:
Financial situation (ie broke, rich, moderate savings):
Weapons*:
Goal in life (ie get rich, help people, gather fame, use skills, discover new places, have fun...):
Secret**: TELL ME IN PRIVATE
Brief history:

*Weapons: this is a sci fi game. I will allow knives, but no swords. Also keep in mind that stun weapons exist in my universe and kill weapons are illegal for anyone but lawkeeping people. If a lawkeeper finds any of the crew to carry kill weapons while on a quest, the captain will lose guild points, which could mean demotion to a lower rank which means higher missions are unavailable. Also, if the weapon is found by a law keeper, a fine must be paid and the weapon is confiscated. (That said, some lawkeepers may be open to bribes, if you have the money)

**Secret: I'd like for you to think of a secret that the other members won't know, and which may or may not be exposed during the rp. This could be anything from a fear of dogs your character is ashamed of to a piece of history they don't talk about. Maybe they have a sister who is in jail for something, a brother who is a religious fanatic or a military history they're not proud of. Or perhaps they were assaulted as a young child, they never met their father or their hair may not be their real hair. Big or small, it's your choice. As this is a secret, you don't have to mention it in your character sheet, even if should be in family or brief history.

Have fun drawing up your character!

@Blue2 We can make a text channel for character sheets and/or IC if we want to.

@6slyboy6

That would be good. We would need a general ooc channel, and ic for team 1, an ic for team 2, an info channel for team 1, an info channel for team 2 (where I can map out the progress) and a character sheet channel. So that's 6 channels to start off with

@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.

@6slyboy6

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?

Sci fi questing adventure, small crew wanted.

@Letter Bee see previous post

Sci fi questing adventure, small crew wanted.

@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.

@6slyboy6

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.

@Conscripts

That's possible, then we would need different starting points and a way to make it clear which character belongs to which story line

Sci fi questing adventure, small crew wanted.

@Blue2 Yo, still got space?

@6slyboy6

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...

@Letter Bee

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
