[Multiverse Spaceship RP] Stargate: Paradigm

Sorry bout lack of post. Life got a little strange. Post is mostly written in my google will finish it up and have it up friday.

[Multiverse Spaceship RP] Stargate: Paradigm

I'll try and get a post up after work tomorrow (tues)

[Multiverse Spaceship RP] Stargate: Paradigm

I'm disappointed I missed this. I wouldn't have been able to resist submitting my Uraga class Stealth carrier from Macross! Then again I do have a nice system Lord I would love to play. Of course one would have to resist the temptation to submit either a Macross Quarter or a Glorious Heritage Class ship from Andromeda. Those would be just too ridiculous.

@Assallya

I actually initially planned to play a Glorious Heritage Class ship. But was told it was too much for the rp. Of course that was before a mothership from homeworld showed up.

@Dnafein

That would depend on each ship's sensors. I expect most ships that do not encounter space monsters or biological ships would just see a weird ship reading.

@Sophrus

yes it does depend on ship sensors. That was why i brought it up. Any sensors searching for life signs would most likely read the ship as one massive life sign. Whether they encounter space monsters or biological ships don't matter. Its a massive life sign, because the Vorlon tech it is comprised of is living.

[Multiverse Spaceship RP] Stargate: Paradigm

So a thought occured to me. Given the living material the whitestar is made of would it appear to be a large creature more then a ship? And thus hide the crew inside?

The bridge was dead quiet as the ship simply dropped out of hyperspace. Marcus was out of his chair pointing. “Get all sensors on that.” He ordered, even as the orb faded. The captain was aware of the other ships but they looked constructed, the orb did not. “Battlestations.” He ordered as it vanished.

“Was that” A feminine voice asked.

“Maybe,” The captain interrupted. “Get me a line to someone in charge, and keep the trainees from seeing the sensor data.”

The Narn turned and moved to the communications station. In route she redirected a Drazi from the sensor station to the combat systems. She also redirected the comm trainee as well.

Ashann looked up and frowned, Humans have no patience. He thought as he stood, the elder teacher looked at the students also meditating. “You have places to be correct?”

He waited until the students departed for their stations before making his way to the bridge. His eyes scanned the stations as he moved to the captain’s side. “What is happening?” He asked quietly.

“I don't know yet.” Marcus replied just as quietly. “I need you to take a look at the sensor data and tell me what you think.”

Ashann, his curiosity spiked, moved to the sensor station. He watched as the data was replayed; He hadn't seen anything like what was replayed for a very long time. He went through data crystals cross checking data. After a few minutes of research he rejoined the captain.

Marcus spent the time listening as information trickled in from the battlestations. He frowned at the time it took to fully man the stations. They would need to work on that he acknowledged to himself as the Sech joined him. “Well?” The Shok’Na asked.

“If you are asking if i believe it to be a First One;” Ashann started. Marcus gave a slight nod. “Yes, it appears to be one. However not one we know of.” The captain grunted. The Minbari teacher asked, “Your thoughts?”

“It’s one of two things.” Marcus started, “Either it was hiding or exiled by the others, and we need to figure out if its as bad as the Hand.”

“And the other?” Ashann asked as the Shok’Nali approached. The captain turned his attention to the first officer and motioned her to speak.

The Narn’s eyes swept the bridge as she spoke quietly. “There is no response on any of the usual channels.” She shook her head as she continued, “By G’Kar, we aren't even getting ISN.”

“Yeah, I don't think we’re in Kansas anymore.” Marcus said. The aliens gave the human a blank look. Marcus sighed, “Somehow we are in unknown space.”

The two subordinates exchanged looks with each other, as the Captain nodded. “Get me details on the other ships and find out where we are.” He ordered where everyone could hear.

“Yessir,” Da’Toth said, the first officer said. She turned away and started barking orders to the other rangers. The captain watched the viewer, and considered the plan. They were Anla’shok; they would watch, they would listen and they would learn. And when the time was right they would do what they had to.

"Ah Hell"

Name of Ship:

Officially: Whitestar 21
Unofficially: Ahel [ah-hel]

Home Universe/Name of Franchise: Babylon 5
Role: Fast attack

Physical Description/Image:

Physical Size: length= 475.6 m

Armament/Complement:

• Weapons:
  
  
  
  • 1 Quantum Discharge Beam Cannon (Primary)
  • 2 Neutron Cannons (Secondary)
  • 2 Twin Fusion Cannons (Tertiary)
• Defenses
  
  
  
  • Magnetic Discharge Beams
  • Vorlon defense system
• Auxiliary Craft
  
  
  
  • 5 SA-23E Mitchell-Hyundyne Starfury fighters

History of the Ship: Whitestar 21 was built in secret by the Minbari in 2260. It survived the Second Shadow War, and the Earth Alliance Civil War. Afterwards it became an Anla’Shok training vessel. It was modified to carry the more agile Starfury fighters, as their superior maneuverability matched that of the Whitestars themselves.

Notable Crew:

Crew Name: Marcus Jonathan Ivanova
Crew Role: Captain

Crew Description:

Marcus is an accomplished Ranger. Having proven himself capable as a ship's commander against a group of raiders. He carries his own denn’bok having gained the approval of a F'hursna.

Crew Name: Ashann ra Tha'domo
Crew Role: Sech’Na (unofficial title of the senior instructor.)

Crew Description:

Ashann has been with the rangers since they’re reformation for the second shadow war. He was part of the original crew assigned to Whitestar 21; Upon hearing the ship was being used to train young rangers Ashann volunteered to leave Tuzanor to provide instruction.

Crew Name: Da’Toth
Crew Role: Shok’Nali

Crew Description:

Da’Toth carries a K’tok, preferring it over the denn’bok. She has been friends with Marcus since he saved her life. She vowed to repay him one day and has followed him since seeking a way to fulfill her oath.

Optional, but helpful:

Unique Technology:

• Adaptive Hull: The hull of the White Star has the ability to adapt to attacks on it. Once a specific attack has been used against the ship, the hull will adapt to that attack and any attack of that type that is encountered will only be at twenty percent effectiveness in the next engagement. Variable frequency weapons such as variable frequency lasers can be reset to do full damage once this is discovered. The adaption also takes about ten hours to be completed.
• Advanced Sensors: The White Star has sensors that are a mixture of Vorlon and Minbari Technology. They are capable of detecting and targeting both Shadow and Vorlon ships. These sensors are so powerful that when set to maximum have been known to interfere with the electronics aboard less advanced starships, effectively jamming their systems.
• ECM: The White Star, like all Minbari ships is fitted with ECM. This ECM prevented targeting systems from Earth Alliance ships from being able to lock on during the Minbari war against the Humans. This ECM give an advantage over the scanning and tracking systems that when active it would prevent some of the races from achieving a positive weapons lock.
• Jump Engines: Jump Engines are on-board devices that allow ships to create their own jump point in space. Jump points allow transit between normal space and hyperspace occurs through the use of a "Jump point." A Jump point is a large energised vortex that punches a hole between the dimensions and allows objects to pass from one side to the other.
  
  Jump points are strictly one way. An outgoing jump point for a ship that is about to enter hyperspace is yellow in color, and incoming jump points for ships re-entering normal space are blue. If one jump point is opened inside of another, the staggering release of energy would almost instantly cause an enormous explosion.
  
  For safety reasons, jump points are normally opened only in deep space, away from any potential navigational hazards and ships as any ship that makes contact with the outer edge of the vortex is either instantly destroyed or severely crippled; Though with sufficiently accurate targeting information it is possible to open a jump point within, and safely transit into, a planetary atmosphere. However, due to the massive release of energy involved, doing so in a highly combustible atmosphere will cause a suitably large explosion and shock wave.

Crew Size:

50

1 Shok’Na (Captain)
1 Shok’Nali (First Officer)
15 Anla’Shok (Rangers)
3 Sech (Teachers)
30 Trainees

Class: Medium Cruiser
Faction/Operator/Owner: Anla’Shok

Completely useless, but fun, fluff

Last meal served: Swedish Meatballs
Last mechanical failure: Launch cradle for Wyvern 3 “frozen” in closed position; Preventing launch of all Starfurys.
Fuel reserves (roughly): Indefinite. The ship uses a Minbari gravimetric crystalline power source.
Motto: Ker’may de’wa’zha. (Roughly “To search for a peaceful future” in english)
Weird error that's always just unimportant enough to never fix: Captain's chair squeaks when it rotates.
Last two crewmembers to get in a fight: An argument between a Narn and Drazi over a Kratah game escalated into a short fist fight.
Alcohol reserves (or local equivalent): The Captain maintains a bottle of Vodka in his desk. Various Rangers maintain their own stashes.
Snark reserves (roughly): Mid to High.
History concerning the existence of AI: An artificial intelligent personality that was installed onto the Babylon 5 mainframe computers shortly after completion in 2256. The A.I. was an experiment and proved a complete failure, as the "personality" was stubborn, uncooperative, and "emotional." It was was quickly disabled.
Culture regarding the existence of aliens: The crew is made up of a variety of races, they do their best to work together as they have been trained. So they are generally accepting.
Crew jumpiness from 1-10, with 1 being a beach vacation and 10 being any part of the movie Alien right before it attacks: 4-6 (Training/schooling affects everyone differently.)

So it looks like 2 of the three I considered are out. I'll work on a Whitestar wfter work tomorrow.

[Multiverse Spaceship RP] Stargate: Paradigm

Wow. One quick question. If hypothetically I bring a ship that has a weapon capable of causing a star to go nova would I get in trouble?
