Sorry for the delay, I switched time zones and it took a while for my body to get with it XD

A Space Adventure! (Maruaders)

Hello! Over a year ago I made a plot for a sci-fi adventure that I personally think is my best work, and it has helped me creatively, and has made me some good friends on this site. It's not a typical space adventure, it has gone through a lot of revisions in the past, and I'd love to create this world again and start a new adventure!

Without further ado, here's the plot!

The Marauders

In the year 2030 the lonely isolate planet of Earth sent its first brave men and women to Mars. 30 years later, the United Nations sent another crew to the Red Planet to start colonizing... This was the birth of human space travel. It took them another hundred years to travel farther, and eventually in the year 2338 Earth finally found the secret for galactic travel. So Earth embarked on the greatest expedition it has ever devised. Their search for Extra-Terrestrial life didn't take long, as they were soon contacted. The Human race soon encountered an organization called the Galactic Committee. The Committee consisted of different species from different planets that served under their set of laws to keep peace within the Galaxy. It didn't take long for humans to add their influence, as they had the first Human diplomat inducted into the Committee only 20 years later.

120 years after the humans joined the Committee there have been much more treaties, agreements, and prosperity. Humans now have allies, and have been exchanging technology, it was the Human's Golden Age. But, like every civilization, there is not total peace and order. There are some alien races that have not accepted the Committee's treaties and keep to themselves, other races have become intergalactic pirates. Planets and species will have their civil wars, diplomats will disagree, and crime is everywhere, like every colony.

At this time there was also a dropped rate in stellar exploration. It was an exciting idea for ships to go out into uncharted territory, to chart, explore, and record data of new worlds. That idea quickly died when more and more ships never returned back to the Committee. The farther out Explorers went from the known galaxy, the darker and deadlier it became in any direction. The harsh reality was that even though this was a Golden Age, there was always crime and corruption.

The amount of volunteers to go out and explore plummeted. In desperation the Galactic Committee formed a new law: Any criminal found guilty could be charged of their crime... Or, they could sign up to be in the Expedition Force for the Galactic Committee. Many of the criminals who signed up to explore the galaxy died within weeks by either attempted mutiny, pirate raids, or other complications... But there is one team lead by a notorious criminal that has survived much longer than anyone ever has, and has been known to defuse galactic tension.

They are called The Marauders. The crew is mostly composed of criminals, but some of the Galaxy's best have joined the infamous group to help better the galaxy, or for the thrill of adventure. Many crew members have come and gone (mostly by death), but the commander and captain of the Marauder's has survived through everything the Marauders have gone against.

The Golden Age is going strong, and mostly due to the work of the Marauders. Do you have what it takes to become a member?

We are a group of space explorers, mostly composed of criminals, who should have died a long time ago, but have defied the odds and have become the most known exploration unit in the galaxy! Although mostly all of them are criminals, some people volunteered with their own reasons for joining the Marauders. Do they want to explore the unknown? Or make a difference? Do they seek redemption, or have their own personal agenda? The choice is yours!

We will all have certain roles on board, like pilot, weapons expert, doctor, mechanic, navigator, etc. I have to say though, some of these roles will be more active than others, so please don't choose something really specific or only really important every once in a while, because that wouldn't be fun for the character!

We also made a list of the major species and races in the galaxy and I posted it down below, but you can make your own if you want, we love creativeness! If you have any questions about what you can and can't make, just shoot me a PM!

List of aliens

Tu'Veeri

The first race to discover space travel over 5000 years ago. Their first contact with an alien species was with the second eldest species, the Yhei. Their race is known for their nobility, intense military training, and their ability to be very literal. The humans often refer to them as galactic knights.

Their race is slightly humanoid, and bipedal. They are almost always ginormous, with muscular frames, and a stiff composure. The males have lighter pigmented skin than the females. The Tu'Veeri are typically never shorter than 5'9". They have strong jaws, long dark hair (the color varies, but usually it is many colors except blonde), and their eyes constantly change color. Some Tu'Veeri have been known to be born with four arms due to ancestral lineage.

They reproduce with one mate for life, and due to their noble nature never cheat or divorce. Children are given a sheltered but very strict life until they are old enough to learn to fight, using their childhood to learn nobility and rules and the rest to master the art of war.

Although they are noble and considered the wisest, they did not get along with the Yhei. To them, they were advanced in their technology, but never found the need for space travel. They took each other as threats, both thinking they were supreme. For three centuries a war raged on, until ultimately the Tu'Veeri won. They both created a treaty to become allies, and thus, the Galactic Committee was formed. The Head Council member has almost always been Tu'Veeri. Although it has been a very long time since the First Contact War, the Tu'Veeri and Yhei still have differences and hold bitterness at certain times.

Their home planet of Noi is located closer to the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. Their planet, like Earth, is the only planet that had life until they started to branch out. Filled with rolling hills and elegant sunsets, their technology is state of the art, with castle-like buildings, and bustling utopias. Being with noble nature they have limited building on their planet to give it a natural look and to honor their heritage. The children go out to learn to fight in the rolling hills and vast mountain ranges. Their greatest source of water is one giant ocean, the Tu'Veeri can filter any water no matter how contaminated.

The Yhei

The Yhei have always been the most technologically advanced. They were so focused in their own world and creations, that they found the need to leave their home planet least priority. When the Tu'Veeri appeared, though, they took them as a threat. Pirates that wanted their treasures and advancements.

While the Tu'Veeri were focused on the noble art of war, The Yhei constantly fought their wars with tricks and guerrilla warfare. They hold on for quite a while, but the force and skill of their enemies was too much, and the fighting turned pointless. The Yhei soon surrendered. They agreed on the surprisingly reasonable terms of the Tu'Veeri, but always held a bitterness towards them. The Yhei were in charge of creating the home station of the Galactic Committee on an isolated planet in between the Yhei and Tu'Veeri's homeworlds. It was the largest biologically made structure in the galaxy, and welcomed any species willing to cooperate.

The Yhei are lightweight, and to humans look like a mix of a human and frog. They are born with six fingers on each hand, very skinny arms, an large heads. They also have two alligator-type eyes, and all have grins to make anyone uneasy. Their skin tone varies from each individual, but there is always a small tinge of orange pigment.

Although they are one of the founders of the Committee, they spend most of their times as inventors, scavengers, and researchers. They take pride in their work, and usually think little of the intelligence of other races, so they mostly dwell in the lower levels of the Committee hub, in hospitals, or on their homeworld.

Their Homeworld is located only 3 lightyears away from the Tu'Veeri, thus making it easy for them to be the first contacted. The Planet Muck is filled with large swamps, and acidic rain. To make up for it, the Yhei have built mighty cities above world that is extremely durable, and have most of their biggest cities underwater for protection. Only rarely do the Yhei get outsiders to travel to their planet. Mostly everything on their planet is steam powered due to the abundance of water.

The Forgei

The Forgei got their spot on the Galactic Committee due to their large abundance of wealth. Most (but not all) of this race are familiar with precious materials all over the world. They are a civilization of collectors. They rarely fight physically due to their short nature (their normal height is around 5'6"). To humans the Forgei look like lemurs, with only three toes on each of their very large feet. Their fur is lightly blue and be as dark as purple, their four yellow eyes are their most dominant feature on their face, and the strongest limb they have is their tails.

When they were first found by the Committee three thousand years ago, they were quick to try and ally with the organization. They were obviously the wealthiest. Their home planet has a very large abundance of the rarest material in the galaxy: Light Stone. A rock that's so enriched with elements, characteristics and reactions that it radiates a warm yellow glow. It is the secret to intergalactic travel, and used for many new weapons that the Forgei have now produced.

The Forgei serve as the Committee's funding party, and rarely have any of their kind in the Committee's military. Instead they keep to politics, having most of them running smaller levels of the Committee. Although they do not fight, they have a very strong voice and say on what goes on in the galaxy due to their wealth, and currently do not think that stellar exploration is a good idea.

The Forgei are from a planet known as Losc, a planet heavily filled with rainforests and jungles. Everything on the planet is so rich in elements that it looks almost as if the planet itself was alive. The Forgei are very protective of their riches, and rarely let visitors travel to their planet.

The Furtim

The Furtim were the hardest to locate, and quite possibly the most mysterious. They appeared to the Committee three thousand years ago, but have claimed to be watching them for quite some time.

Although extremely polite and very literal, the Furtim have the ability of natural camouflage. The Furtim never blink, their giant dark eyes giving them an owl-like head movement, twitching and turning towards any sudden noises. The Furtim don't have noses, only two slits where it would be, they are around 6 feet tall, the women are only a couple inches shorter. The most noticeable trait is their scales. Their scales are constantly moving, soft to the touch, yet very very strong, and have no definite color. For the most part they are normally a dark gray, but are known to change color depending on the Furtim's mood. The scales give them the ability of natural camouflage, being able to turn almost completely invisible. Although humanoid, they resemble lizards to Humans.

Before they made contact with the Committee they would often live in secrecy, observing, calculating. They are incredibly religious and have high sense or moral codes due to it... but that doesn't mean they are peaceful. They are known for being quiet assassins for hire, although they don't accept just money as payment. They must be called by a ritual, and you must have a justifiable cause for your target to die.

Because of their literate nature they are often confused as being cold, unforgiving, and cruel, but in reality they are sympathetic to anyone who shows their emotions, and once you have their loyalty and trust, they will never betray you.

Their home planet is mostly dense forests, and large glistening lakes. Many would debate that the Furtim homeworld, Nox, is the most beautiful in the known galaxy. The world is still, nature is the most significant feature, and the Furtim usually live within the trees in elegant, yet simple, houses, and have countless beautiful shrines to their gods.

There's a lot more my Co-GM, @Akayaofthemoon, @Hawlin, and I have in store for this story, but is anyone interested so far???

The Marauders (Will Return)

im so looking forward to this Reboot, and we will be hard at work making sure everyone has a great time going into this world! Akaya, Hawlin and I will be all over this RP and I have no intention of getting hit by a car again so there won't be mysterious disappearances from me! XD

We will get something out soon :D

An idea or two! (Will eventually update!)

Hello! I have been out of the site for a while, but really wanna get back into things! I'll probably add on to these eventually, but for now I just have a couple ideas haha

just a little about me: I am a huge romantic, and an even bigger Marvel Geek XD I believe in quality over quantity in posts, but I do like to give at least a paragraph (I know stuff happens sometimes, so a smaller post is completely fine with me!). I am pretty damn laid back, but I am also a human like everyone else, So I will most likely make mistakes and I'm sorry in advance. But I am willing to cooperate and brainstorm and just create an awesome story to tell with anyone who is just as passionate! I also enjoy RP'ing in Posts, and in PM's, so it doesn't matter with me :D

I'm looking for mostly female roles, but some of the future plots won't matter on the gender!

Without further ado, here are just a few of the plots!

1) [s]A post-apocalyptic Marvel Romance[/b][/s]--- Fifty years after the destruction of the Avengers, heroes and anyone with abilities were hunted down, and killed by the super villains of the world. They divided the world up into their own sectors, and they rule with different laws and societies... But most of them are run by fear, and hatred. Most of the famous heroes were killed off years ago, others went into hiding, living in exile from the world they once protected. But one of the founding members of the Avengers found a slimmer of hope. The grandchild of two legends is brought to him, and he raises him to finally fight back. [Character 1] must travel trying to find anyone willing to fight for a better future for the world. In a mission gone wrong, [Character 1] is saved by [Character 2], someone who was just as strong and powerful as he was. Although the two don't get along at first, they rely on one another to stay alive, and to bring hope back to the world, and eachother.

I know this is very "Logan-ish" but I really like the idea of that dread and fear and trying to overpower it!

((I'm looking for a female role in this, but who the ancestors are to the person is totally up to you!))

2) An Adventurer's life
-- A man has spent years travelling the world, experiencing new and unique cultures. He had money, a beautiful family, and an amazing job... But everything changed when his wife passed away. He was now a stay at home dad, struggling to maintain his family, and to live a "normal" life. It has been over a year now, and some of his children want him to move on, and find someone new. So they set him up to meet someone who could make the father happy again.

((Also a female role, and I know this one is less elaborated, but i feel like this one needs to be brainstormed with the other person XD))

3) Captain America: The Secret Avengers
-- After the events of Civil War, Steve Rogers AKA Captain America, is now a criminal for going against the Superhero Registration Act. Now hiding from people he once protected, and friends, Steve has taken upon himself to keep doing what he believes is right. And he is not alone. Few of his friends have joined him in hiding, to still try and help while keeping to privacy and freedom to others. This group of people call themselves the Secret Avengers. Working behind the scenes, they do their best to work quickly and quietly without being caught by the new law enforcers of the world. With talk about a secret HYDRA base recently discovered, Cap now makes this a priority. In the base, the Secret Avengers find something very shocking, and terrifying. A frozen body, and by the looks of it, a super soldier just like Steve Rogers.

Now, this RP can go two ways and I'm willing to do either one:

a) The super soldier is the playable character, and although there are doubts, they claim to be friendly, a POW that was tested on before WWII ended. Although it was successful, they didn't know if the serum would be stable, and thus they froze the person in time, hoping that one day they would come back and revive their creation. Afraid that Iron Man and the rest of the world would find out, the Secret Avengers hide the new soldier, and find out that there is more to this than they thought. Will they take the help of the frozen soldier, or will Steve's Paranoia about the past limit that trust?

b) The frozen soldier is found, and breaks loose from the facility. Desperate to find him again, Steve does his best to track them down, feeling like it is his responsibility. But they need more help. The Secret Avengers eventually recruit a new hero, once believing in Tony's beliefs. Unsure at first, the team will have to learn to trust the new member, and hunt down the HYDRA soldier.

((The first scenario would probably be a romance-type story, option two will have more freedom :D ))

4) A Western Romance
-- A man and woman both get their lives destroyed by a notorious Outlaw. The man spends most of his young life learning how to kill and track down this outlaw in hopes to bring peace. Little does he know that another person is after the same exact thing. Alone they wouldn't stand a chance, but together they could have a shot of taking out the man whose caused misery and pain to many. They learn to trust one another, and question if this crusade they are on will truly give them peace.

5) A 1950's Love Story

---A World War II vet, a previous criminal, and now a single father of a child he never knew he had, he travels to New York to become something better than what he once was. His dream is to become a great jazz pianist, and he is a gifted performer. He makes money playing at bars, night clubs, and other venues. He even meets a girl he falls for, and gets close with. Just when he thinks he is starting to be the man he wants to be, his past once again finds him, and challenges his loved ones, and new career.

((Looking for a female role for this one! I don't necessarily have a planned plot for this one, its simply a "go with the flow" and see what happens scenario. Either way it would be a great plot driven romance!))

If any of these plots interest you, or you have a question or comment, just mention me in a reply, or shoot me a PM :D

The Marauders (Will Return)

Raymond had his arms crossed, staring down at the table as he awaited the rest of his crew. His head was throbbing still, but he was slowly starting to feel better than before. He could feel the anxious eyes on him as more people entered, all interested to see what Raymond Chase had to offer for the new crew mates, some of them even curious on how he had those fresh wounds on his body. He was more focused on trying to find a way to talk about the next mission.

When everyone was present, Raymond coughed a bit and stepped forward, moving his hands to the small console at the end of the desk. "Alright everyone, the Committee has tasked us with intercepting an S.O.S. from a planet on one of our outer sectors in the known galaxy."Ray spoke as calmly as he could, activating the clip that was shown to him only a few minutes before.

"....elp, Help!...Stranded...Planet is....We need Assistance from anyone willing to help... So many dead! Oh, Oh god...!" Gunfire, screams of both men and women, and faint explosions were heard through the muffled static of the message. Raymond ended the broadcast, and hit another button to show the mapped areas of the known galaxy. "This broadcast was traced back to this sector, it's not the actual point where it's broadcasted, but it's the closest we can get in the known galaxy... It's off the grid, and that's why we were assigned to it."

"The predicted source of the broadcast seems to be forty-two clicks northwest of this point. Once we get to the actual sector, it'll be easier to find the signal if it is still present." Tango's voice filled the area, showing the possible predicted path on the map.

"With that said, to get to the outer rim of the galaxy will take a little while. About 18 hours of hyperspace drive. Until then, Tango will operate some maintenance with the crew, and I believe the good doctor has some... documenting to do. Just do your job,
and if you're confused on what that is, talk to myself, or Tango. Any questions? Ray asked, looking around the room before dismissing the crew of concerned looking faces.

The Marauders (Will Return)

Glad you're still around, @Hawlin! The Monroe wouldn't be the same without our lovable yet terrifying Kaite wandering around XD

The New Avengers

Hey everyone,

I am so sorry for my disappearance for two months. I don't want to get too much into the details, but a friend of mine got hit by a drunk driver late at night a couple months back. It wasn't fatal for anyone involved, but it left us all badly injured and needing to recover. I wasn't able to type anything too big or stay on too long, so all I could do was just sit and watch all these awesome characters and people wait for me, and I'm so sorry for that.

I was so looking forward to this RP too, so maybe sometime soon I'll try to revive it, and hopefully I can see everyone around the site, because you guys are pretty freakin' awesome XD

Again, I'm sorry, and if you'd be interested in a revival let me know somehow, I'm trying to get back into the swing of things!

The Marauders (Will Return)

I am also very sorry for my two month disappearance... I dont want to get into too much details, but my friend and I got hit by a drunk driver a little while ago. It wasn't anything fatal for any of us involved, but it left us with a few inabilities to do much haha. I have fully recovered from my injuries though, and am getting back into the swing of things here...

I just wanted to apologize for just leaving, and not doing anything to help out. I love this group, and love seeing these characters, and I'm sorry this pretty much died.

Akaya and I will most likely try and revive this sometime soon, since it's our little RP creation XD

Robin Hood (EasilyAmused & Jones Sparrow)

@SinfulSkills

Finally got a reply up!

Robin Hood (EasilyAmused & Jones Sparrow)

Robert smiled at Marian's imitation of her father, everyone who knew the guy has heard his serious speeches on just about any topic, and he bet that Marian has had heard a lifetime of them growing up with the man. Her voice then turned to nervousness, her eyes not meeting Robert's until her invitation was delivered. She wanted to go to a public party... with him? Robert fell over his words for a second, not really knowing how to react to something he had thought of since he had first laid eyes on her. A mix of "I's" and "Heh's" and "uh's" escaped his mouth before he laughed. "I would love to...!" Is what he finally said, his smile wide and bright. "Never thought I'd attend the Governor's personal campaign party... Are they fun? Does he have a theme to go with them? Probably not, if he had a choice everyone would be fed milk and crackers with his stale attitude... sorry! I'm rambling. Guy and I started work today rather early, and with that Yankee's win and. Other, uh, things... my mind's going a mile a minute." Robert began to explain rather quickly. So much was going right in this part of his life, and so much was going wrong.

Marian was actually asking to spend time with him, the Merry Men have been exploding with popularity, but at the same time a federal investigation was being put on him, he was helping with it, and John has been getting more and more impatient with Robert's overconfidence int he matter. He had to move forward with The Merry Men's goal, but then there was the things he wanted more than anything, like... Marian.

"I'm sorry. To be honest, I really wasn't expecting you to invite me to any important parties like this... You feeling alright? You still on that mental high from the Yankee's win?" Robert said in a somewhat teasing matter. He was also on that high. He could still feel the electricity in his body from when she whispered in his ear. He could have heard that voice for hours.
