Hot dogs are already cooked. Might as well just sear them to add flavor.

If you take college seriously, it opens doors. Harvard and Hopkins makes it easier, but you can do well anywhere.

Prefer to brainstorm on Discord for that reason.

Any feedback on my previous comment?


I am generally in favor of the idea of a member of a religious sect coming along for the ride.
Whoops, that was in the wrong spot!

We need to flesh out Bergfalk. I can play him, though, that's easy.
It's good to see some ideas and people with very strong senses of direction for this. If you can get into the discord and throw me some e-mails, I'll get people logged onto Trello where we can start setting collaboration.
Sounds like mahz is aware of the situation so we can expect stability. Phew.
I'll figure out how to respond to this. Prolly keep it short unless we are going to collab.
Just saw this and really down for this.

I really really want to play as a privileged socialite-cum-romance artist who only got into the colony to stop a scandal from exploding with one of the board members.
He managed to win himself the role of 'colony-poet laureate' and would have started the first colony gossip mag, convinced the assistants in one of the biochemistry labs to start whipping up narcotics, and would host wild underground orgies of sex and drugs. He would be the center of the bohemian scene on the colony.

I think a raving hedonist is exactly what a struggling utopian colony needs. Besides, scientists need to party


Oh, that would be perfect and lovely. We need some of those divisive social issues/practices and a bit of society in the culture. This will be particularly useful as the plot progresses.
Hello, the Guild is starting to get less stable and when these errors pop up, it usually means that it becomes unusable until mahz can get back.

Please login into this RP's Discord chat so we can stay in touch and, if necessary, pursue this RP on an alternative platform while the Guild has technical difficulties.

Sounds good. I think it's important to note that not all characters had to be hired as the top person...a lot of people died.

If you guys would like, we can start a Trello board as well as use the discord for brainstorming sessions. I feel that Trello is a step up from just putting things on a forum, because it allows for topics to be created and added, and comments made on these specific topics. It helps track lore generation.

Remembers saying goodbye to @HeySeuss But HeySeuss has just started up an RP he once did long ago, perhaps with new surprises in store. Might join even though he is up to his eyeballs with responsibilities and other hobbies..

Dammit HeySeuss!


This is an old favorite, but I brainstormed ideas in my little green notebook that led me to want to try this again. One of the nice things out there since the last time I tried this (more than two years ago) is that I am aware of new productivity software that helps with the brainstorming and that I know that this plot needs people to have a good idea of what direction we are taking it in.

So to fully disclose, Humanity has colonized since Aeneas' colonists disappeared. Then things happened to balkanized, fracture and otherwise devastate Humanity and they are crawling out of that, seeded on a variety of planets. Aeneas' colonists have to grapple with this situation and make decisions that have consequences. So some of the players have asked me (quietly, which is good) about certain political and scientific beliefs that I think bode well for the RP, because if these people are leading a colony and that colony is influential in ways they didn't expect and they learn things that they didn't even realize were possible, then the dissent will be fun to play out.

Furthermore, I want to be more collaborative in the GMing and work on the plot arc together. I have my ideas, but other people have plenty to bring to the table. That's why Trello -- you work on it, others see it, add to it, and spin off it.

So my role isn't to run the plot alone, it's to work with you guys and help create an atmosphere where we invest in our characters and the plotline as a whole, ditching the usual model of GM'ing. If we have twists, that's cool too. We should all be providing twists, because I like surprises and creativity as much as anyone else.
There would definitely need to be more than one doctor. And we can always play people who are department heads and the next in line.
I understand the characters have been in suspended animation/hibernation for 100+ years, but has this process; used for the space travel suspended physiological growth? Do the characters remain the age they were when the started the journey.


The process is a type of stasis, absolutely. I did not go into details but if someone has the science to come up with something viable, I am all for.
