My Emperor, The Galaxy Is Yours For The Taking (Space Opera NRP)

I do have some questions about this NRP? Is the Earth still alive and active with life, not destroyed by nuclear missiles? If it's still alive, then I would be interested in playing a Federation that took Earth after the Empire fell and is trying to rebuild the planet and their system while having friendly relations with the aliens.

A man's scream echoed in apartment room twenty-one as the neighbors heard the scream. Some of them thought of calling the police and wanted to check on the Hawkins twins, but they decided not to as they thought they watching some sort of horror film. The twins, Ashton and Isaac, had been living in this apartment for a couple months after they moved out of that horrible mobile park. This apartments were not any better than the mobile homes, but at least one of the rooms was not a meth lab. Life resumed outside of apartment room twenty-one. Inside the room, it was another story. A stunned Isaac dropped a bowl of noodles and it shattered into pieces as he saw one of the characters for a television show was sitting on his brother's bed.

The character looked at him as he dropped the bowl and it broke. "Why the hell did you drop the bowl?" he demanded an answer as he got up from his bed and tried to pick up the pieces. "You know how much the bowl cost?"

Isaac still could hear his brother's demanding tone, the tone that Ashton made when he is mad. Was he dreaming? Did he overslept work again and Ashton just forgot to wake him as he went out? He went to pinch himself to make sure that all of this was not a dream at all. He was not dreaming as he pinched his arm three times before his brother's tone caught him off guard. "Hello?! Are you still here?" he asked while putting the broken pieces of the bowl into the trash can.

"Have you seen your self lately?" Isaac said.

"Of course I have! My eyes are fucked up! We were suppose to go to the hospital." Ashton answered his brother's question. "Are you telling me that something else is happening to me?"

Isaac was about to say what was wrong until he saw his brother transforming into... someone else? His eyes were wide open as his entire body was quickly changing. It took around fifteen seconds to complete the transformation but Issac knew who his brother was... He was looking at himself, like looking at a big mirror. He stepped away for Ashton as his body was shaking and he started to breathe quicker. Confused, Ashton walked towards his brother and asked, "What is wron-."

Even his voice sounded like Isaac's.

Ashton quickly covered his mouth as he heard his brother's voice and he saw that his brother was trying to say something. He immediately ran towards the bathroom to look at the mirror. And he saw his brother instead of Ashton in front of the mirror. It was too much to take in all at once. He did look like his brother from his hair to his current outfit of the day. None in his situation would have a plan already set, even Ashton was shocked by this tranformation. Then he started to have a headache as his breathing became faster. He tried to leave the bathroom, but everything was moving around so quickly. Instead of running, he placed one knee on the ground and held tight on the shower curtain. All of a sudden, he passed out.

Sunday 13th November
It had been three days since Ashton transformed into his brother and the character from the poster. Things have been awkward for the twins as they stopped talking to each other since the events that happened on Friday night. Issac refuses to look and talk to his twin brother, taking extra shifts at work and not going home on his breaks. But, he was trapped at home for the day because it was Sunday and most of the workers (including his boss) go to church on that day. Issac started to watch the television while he heard something in Ashton's room, but he could care less as he kept eyes on the screen.

Once Ashton came out of his room, he was dressed up with his usual outfit and a pair of sunglasses. He grabbed the keys to the apartment and put it in his pocket. Ashton looked at his brother and said to him, "I am going outside now. I will be back later."

"Good." Issac only said as he sounded happy that he had the house to himself. With that response, Ashton immediately left his apartment not wanting to start another argument with his own brother. Their relationship was doing so well until he got sick and got his 'powers.' He was not sure if things would ever go back to normal, but he was willing to fix things between them. Regardless, Ashton needed to go outside and breath some fresh air. Verona has not changed at all since he got sick and missed the small quite town. It was time to visit the good old Salem Diner on main street. It was only a few minute walk to main street, given that he lived in the 'bad part of town.' Then he heard his phone go off like crazy.

He grabbed it and saw that his best friend sent a text moments ago:

BORED LETS MEET

Abigail

It was Abigail as she always that sends text like this one. He kept on walking to main street as he tried to replied to her text. After all, he still has to deal with his 'powers' without freaking everyone else out. It took him a few second before he thought of something to say while trying to sound odd at all. He started to type as he did not noticed that the whole town had arrived before he saw the majority of Verona there. Most, if not all, of the windows were broken and the clearup was getting started. Ashton wanted to help out his community as much as he can. He deleted the original text and typed the new message until he got another text from his other friend, Andrew.

Get to the highstreet, something weird has happened, i need you to ask people for their storeis.. and scrape up my remains, i'm going to talk tot he sheriff

Andrew

Ashton looked at the text and just replied with a 'yep.' Then, he got back into finishing the text from Abigail and sent it once he was done.

I can't hang out right now. Main Street is a mess and I was asked to interview the store owners by my 'boss.' Maybe later?

He finally got to work, approaching one of the store owners while he was clearing up. "Sir, could you tell me what was going on?" he asked while getting his phone ready to type the owner's answer. He was not out of the apartment for a few minutes and he got back to work.

Humanity has been living in their comfortable lifestyle in a world that has become overly dependent on technology. That's a problem. Bacterias and viruses are adapting to our antibiotics a lot faster than the scientists expected. United States of America and her allies knew that there was a possible that a deadlier outbreak was going to happen after the Ebola Outbreak. Hundreds of peoples were infected in America and thousands more in West Africa. The citizens were in panic mode as they quickly turned on their loved ones over little disputes. Then, the CDC developed a treatment for the virus and the citizens calmed down. Government officials were worried about a major outbreak hitting America. A presidential directive was quietly signed into law in response to this possibility. It maps out the government's response to a national crisis, like the Ebola Outbreak. It's known as Directive 18.

The US Military began several programs to look for signs in someone if they would inflected. Hospitals updated their equipment to combat against emergency capacity issues. And the CDC issued preparedness messages to watch for signs if they are inflected. It had been seven years since the Ebola Outbreak dominated televisions all over the world. It has faced several other outbreaks and epidemics during the years; but, the world knew what to do. What if the world was introduced to a different kind of virus? A virus that can get someone sick and kill them? What if they come back from the dead? The governments of the world don't know how to answer those questions other than to contain the situation.

In the city of Baltham, a business man that just returned for Central America hasn't been outside of his home since he came back about a day ago. Neighbors said that always see the man every morning, going over his friend's house across the street. His friend decided to call his friend, who is a police officer, and told him of the situation. They decided to go over together once the officer takes his usual lunch break to see their pal. This is where our story starts.

𝐁𝐀𝐋𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐌 ℇ 𝐁𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐆𝐄 𝐈𝐒𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃
Baltham, Washington was founded two days after the state had become the 42nd state on November 11, 1889. The city is apart of the Bainbridge Island metropolitan area, which has a population of 130,000. Bainbridge Island has 304,000. The increased in population landed in the second largest city in Washington, beating Spokanea. Baltham was named the fourth-best place to live in the United States in 2020. Both cities are becoming an increasingly affluent bedroom community of Seattle, a 35-minute ride away on the Washington State Ferries. Tourists often found themselves spending time at the island and the city used that to make a profit. They spend more time at Baltham than Bainbridge Island.

Baltham is home to the headquarters of many small and large businesses, many of which are technology companies that started in the 1990s. The city has numerous thriving commercial districts, including one shopping center: Zemreaft Mall. It has one small hotel located in the middle of Baltham and Bainbridge called, Sweet Bay Hotel; Bainbridge has three hotels. Myriad development of major retail, residential, and revitalization projects are amidst planning, in construction, or have been successfully executed in both cities. The growth has resulted in the city council to start construction on a waterfront boardwalk and marina in the late 1990s. The boardwalk was just finished a couple months ago and it expends to both cities' coastlines. A waterfront multimodal bus/ferry terminal soon opened in 2002 and allowed people to travel to Settle in thirty-five minutes.

Both cities are continuing to grow still as more people moved away from small town to large cities. It's expected that in five years, Baltham will reach 200,000 and Bainbridge Island will hit 350,000. The cities also have set a high standard for other cities in America to follow in health and cleanliness. There are five different hospitals in the city and they are capable of handling any outbreak that happens. Bainbridge is currently the healthiest city in America, following by Baltham and Dallas.

𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆
In ISOLATE, the world has learned how deadly viruses can be if left alone. The United States of America combated it by reminding people of the possible risks of another 'Spanish Flu' or another 'Black Plague'. In secret, the president signed a presidential directive into law without the general public knowing. The directive, Directive 18, gives orders for the several government-run departments and the military on what they should do during an outbreak. The public doesn't know about this directive at all. The cities of Baltham and Bainbridge Island is where this new and deadly virus is going to get it's start. A businessman comes home after spending two weeks in Central America for work. He went into his home and hasn't been out for a day. This is where our new virus is going to play out: a zombified virus.

In REC, we get to see everyday civilians that live in an apartment deal with this virus that turns their neighbors into cannibals. No-one knows what zombies are, just like in The Walking Dead, and they don't know what to do at first. It would be a day or two until the Washington State government reacts to the outbreak and soon issues a state of emergency. Then, the US government will also react by sending aid and troops to the state and the cities affected by the virus. However, the hospitals will soon become filled with inflected people and things will turn for the worst. Our characters will react to the whole situation from the first day. They will be changed into a different person or try to stay the same. They have to watch out of the inflected and other humans or stop living (That's the zombified virus).

I figured that I give this roleplay another shot, but try it out in the casual section. I hope that more people would be interested and that I get to roleplay this setting again. For returning characters, you are allowed to use your old characters or make a new one up.

𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐄𝐒

• No metagaming, powergaming, godmodding, mary/gary-sueing or anything silly like that.
• If you do something stupid, then expect consequences that could kill your character.
• Since this is a modern day apocalyptic survival roleplay, realism is a must.
• Romance is okay, but if it goes beyond a kiss take it to PM or off guild (Guild rules).
• In interactions with large groups of people, if not using a collab, work a posting order out among yourselves so that you can all enjoy it and nobody gets left behind.
• Don't make super long collabs.
• Have fun. :>
• NPCs are allowed as well. They can be killed off by everyone as long as it reasonable.
• Once you have a bite mark, you're fucked. You will turn into a zombie, no matter what you do.
• In ISOLATE, no-one knows what are zombies. So, your characters and NPCs better not say that word.
• Remember, the quickest way to kill a zombie is to damage/destroy the head.

Do you want to add something to Baltham & Bainbridge Island? Do you feel like there should be more to the plot? Should I lighten up the front? Well, you can suggest something about how to make ISOLATE a better roleplay. Just post it on the many interested checks or private message me and I will take a look at it. If the people feel like that would be a great addition, then I will add it and mention you! There are some ideas that I will reject and don't feel down about. You can still post suggestions to me at anytime without paying any fees! I am the kind of person that will consider your ideas and look into it, so feel free to share your ideas!

@pugbutter, I have fix the grammar and the age (I hope). And I am fine with people mispronouncing the nickname unless you want me to remove it. Hope that it's good enough.

HEGEDÜS JÓZSEF

• 𝐀𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐬(𝐞𝐬):
  • Joseph.
  • The Prospector; Utcaseprő; Kereskedő.
  • Mienk Kereskedő; The Spirit of Turul; Pálinka Szellem!
• 𝐀𝐠𝐞:
  • Thirty-four.
• 𝐒𝐞𝐱:
  • Male.
• 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲:
  • Hegedüs, or Joseph, has dealt with a lot of shit within The Zone that would have driven a normal man insane. Then again, no-one is truly living an innocent life anymore. He believes that the reality is better than any sort of lie or fantasy. Those settlements are likely ambushed by mutants or other humans, which is worst than being attacked by mutants. Unlike other traders and merchants, he is not looking for fame or riches. He just wants to help out others where the world has turned their backs on Europe. He has thoughts of leaving the hellhole and going to America, but he wants to help his fellow-men out. If and only when the world cares for the survivors, then he will consider retirement and move away.
    
    But, that is nothing more than a fantasy. A false sense of hope, at most.
• 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲:
  • Hegedüs József has spent his life all over Europe, trying to live within the odious landmass. Many people are sure that he was born long before Europe became a toxic wasteland filled with thugs and criminals. "Too much" is all he said when someone asked him about his personal life. Besides that 'small' issue, he often goes to populated settlements and tries his best to offer aid and give out any supplies—for a small fee. He only asks money because it is the most essential thing that will get you food and ammo. And he also often helps out with the Red Cross and other humanitarian organizations that are brave enough to aid Europe.
    
    While he is out there, looking for supplies and useful stuff, he often has hired help with him. Hegedüs absolutely hates being alone because it could get you killed out there. For extra cash, he often gets help in settlements that he stops at. And no-one knows how long that he has done it as well. His English also has improved enough that entrepreneurs and tourists could understand him. Oh, he also dislikes those 'entrepreneurs' and 'tourists' that are there for 'fun'. He avoids those people no matter the situation.
• 𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬:
  • Weapon 1; Fireaxe.
  • Weapon 2; West German-issued combat knife.
  • Weapon 3; FÉG Model GK-45 pistol.
  • Weapon 4; Uplander Field Shotgun.
