As Zharkov was relaxing in a pool of iced water, one of the Cyconoid guards approached him. For a moment he glanced at Zharkov, who was completely and utterly submerged in the water. "Do not fail in your next fight.... Your master would not appreciate it." And with that small piece of dialogue the guard left and allowed him to finish his bathing in piece.
Meanwhile in the Pit, there was a scraggly haired man rocking back and forth, as his eyes nervously darted towards Akira. He began scratching his face in rapid succession, "We are all going to die here! I was just a BAKER, a BAKER! And I've heard they are going to make me go against the beasts. Beasts have really sharp teeth and claws and they are going to kill me!" He began bawling as his mucus and tears began mixing. For several moments he began gurgling on this strange mixture. He began hacking, as he turned his head to spit it out. He glanced at Shah-Nahul as he began crawling on his knees towards him.

He clung onto Shah-Nahul's massive legs. "I know you are big, and that is how you survive! But you had to see smaller guys like me survive, right!? How do I NOT die!" He began sobbing again.
Gabriel Knotts beamed a large smile to the Sprite, as he continued juggling three throwing knives. "It's what heroes do!" Gabriel smiled as he continued juggling his blades. He quickly stopped juggling and returned two of the throwing knives onto the right holsters, and placed one in the left holster. He tapped his left temple as he peered around the area, at the corpses of the horrific monsters they had fought. "Now where did my other three knives en- AHA!" Gabriel quickly ran to one of monster corpses that was in the shallow end of the pool of water. Gabriel quickly saw his blades stuck within the monster's torso, all around the same place, which would make it much easier for collection. "If only he had an actual Bullseye target on his torso, it would be much more entertaining, plus I can accurately judge my knife-throwing skills. Oh well, the thing is dead, and that was the point of this particular encounter. It was much less about style than efficiency." Gabriel mused to himself.

After he finished that piece of dialogue, Gabriel climbed on-top of the monster's chest, as he began pulling out the throwing knives. Gabriel snickered a bit at the monster. "And you thought you had a sharp instincts..." Gabriel chuckled a bit, as wiped under his left eye. "Ah, puns you amuse me so..." He said while he pulled the first out of the three knives in the monster's torso. It was stuck in there, and Gabriel had to wiggle the blade quite a bit, and as soon as he finally jerked the blade out, he placed it in the left holster. Then while he was pulling out the other two knives he began to sing in his beautiful singing voice.

"The knives went true/
And little did that beast knew/
That heroes most mighty would come to this glimmering water/
Heroes on a quest to save the Monarch's fair daughter!/
And while in the process saved a maiden so fair!/"

Gabriel quickly procured the last of the two of the knives, placing them in the final holster slots. He jumped off the monster's torso as he returned to the edge of the water where the Sprite was. Gabriel eagerly extended out his right hand, "Gabriel Knotts, Freelance Adventurer and Professional Entertainer! I'm glad we saved you out of... Well whatever mess that was." Gabriel peered at the fallen monsters, "Say, what did they want with you anyway?"
And so, Mika Tokugawa wandered through Lucky Shots. As she was passing a more mercantile district (which was not the Black Market Lobby), she was being called out by a variety of vendors.

"You want good food!? Come to Hhrit'iks! Our food is guaranteed to burn your taste buds with delectable spices!"
"Hey, you want to buy some Atomic Samurai Video Feeds? Cheapest price around... Barring the Black Market Lobby of course!"
"Come one, come all! Step right up and buy, buy, buy! The Terrific Terrace of Toys is open for business!"
"Cybernetics, and Droids for sale! I assure you these ARE the Droids you are looking for!"

This district was booming with noise and activity, where all of the vendors were desperately trying to get attention from any passing individual. And there many Info-Booths playing out all sorts of activities going on at this moment in Lucky Shots. Somewhere there was a play going on, others had some band, and there was even a circus performance done entirely by robots. Yes, Lucky Shots was full of all sorts of things going on.
Another fine Gladiator Slave to entertain the Praeclaran Masses! Welcome aboard. Let us see how you fare in the Arena... And warm environments must be a bane to the Pravadovs huh?
The Cyconoid Guards smirked at Akira, as they grabbed him by both arms, as they threw him into the Cell Pit of one of the Praeclara Arenas. The Pit, was a dirty and nasty place, which held around twenty gladiator slaves in it, all of whom wallowed around in their own filth. This was only one of many Pits, but this was "THE Pit", for one reason, it held the newest of the new of Gladiators. Though, there is at least one gladiator in The Pit, who was not a freshling like all the others.

"Let us see how this "Tokugawa" does in the ring..." The Cyconoid smirked as he chuckled. He spat down into the pit, "Do not fail Senator Vicaver Slave...!"
Date: Space Year 47 According to the Magsyn Empire.
According to the Hegvan Union it is 6,637 A.U.E.

Current Location: Uysric Galaxy

Synopsis: The Uysric Galaxy is and has been in a Perpetual War for Dominance of the Entire Galaxy. This devastating war is between the Magsyn Empire and the Hegvan Union. For many, many years, the war has been equal in bloodshed against both sides. Many civilians of the Uysric Galaxy can’t even fathom a life without these two juggernauts engaged in mortal conflict. Hundreds, nay, thousands of planets remained completely devastated from the war. These wounds haven’t healed, but have only festered and rotted, as more salt has been poured into those bubbling wounds. And it seems like the Uysric Galaxy will be consumed in war-fare until everything is destroyed. Perhaps, there is still hope… people who wish to end this conflict once and for all, and are risking everything they have to either allow their side to win, or finally end the bloodshed…

BUUUUT… this isn’t that story. No, even with their technology the Twin Powers still lack a complete influence in the galaxy. Plus, bureaucracy tends to be hard over vast stretches, even with this territory. In fact, several star systems in the Uysric Galaxy haven’t even heard of the Twin Powers at all. No, the real story here is about the weirdness of the galaxy, or rather the bizarre ways of the Universe itself. Oh and that’s not even mentioning parallel and perpendicular universes, and the vast, vast galaxies which have life, and also the barren ones. No, this story is about the strange individuals who go out into the fantastical universe and make a name for themselves, in whatever way they feel like making it.

So, are you ready to get out into the vastness of the universe and do… well whatever, from heroic quests, to villainous plots, to adventurous expeditions to the farthest reaches of space, turning the tides in Galactic Wars, personally influencing the development of new life-forms, or even just drinking at a wretched hive of scum and villainy. THE UNIVERSE HAS IT ALL, SO BEST OF LUCK.

Oh, as you probably guessed by reading this far this is a light-hearted, nonsensical Sci-fi adventure. If this game were to applied on the Sliding Scale of Science Hardness… this is extremely soft. Anyway, below will be an example character sheet so you can make a character if you are interested.

Character Sheet:

Name: This ranges from your legal moniker, and pen and stage names you have, criminal aliases, forged identities, and even what your childhood’s friend, cousin in law used to call you back in the day.
Gender: Male, female, etc.
Age: Another standard thing to know. How many solar rotations has your character been through? (Yes, this is space, so I had to ask the age based upon solar rotations.)

Race: In the Vast Expanses of the Universe… there are many, many forms of life, besides just humanoid, there are even life-forms that are gaseous in nature and communicate by flashing colors. Basically this means, any race your heart can dream of. (Well, within limits of course, like don’t play Silver Age Superman who can destroy Galaxies With Sneezes…)
Racial Traits: Just for an easier to read format on what makes your particular race special. What are the defects of your race, what makes you race better than the base humanoid?

Physical Appearance: Either use a picture or write a description for this. Either one works.
Personality: What characteristics and qualities make your character, well your character? How do they think, and feel? You don’t need to be overly long in this description, but give a general starting point to their personality (After all, it could change in game.)

Occupation: What does your character do for a living, well at least at the start of the game… Who knows, maybe they’ll find a different occupation down the way.
History: Give a slice of your character’s background. What events shaped who they are today? Does your character even know they had a background? ((Yes, you do have the choice to say “My character knows NOTHING of their background”. If that is the case, expect a fun learning adventure in the galaxy…!))

Skills: Every character has skills and flaws, this would be the section where you would go into detail about this stuff.
Equipment: So is your character as rich as a Planetary Governor, and has a badass Inter-stellar Warship at their disposal? Or is your character just a lowly individual serving some sort of Hyper-corporation with nothing to their name? Or most likely, is your character somewhere in between? List any pertinent equipment your character has.

Aspirations: What drives your character? What do they want from life, and what causes them to be truly ambitious. Give a few character motivations/aspirations.

Philosophy: What beliefs does your character holds dear? Give your character a few personal beliefs.
Random Tidbits: Any random tidbits that you want to add about your character.

Rules:
Don’t God-mode; don’t take control of another person’s character, etc.
Treat others as they’d treat you.
For posting, go with the flow with the other people playing. Though I’ll be trying to keep it fairly fast paced
And the most important of all of the rules: Have a fun time!

The Current Brave, Daring and Quite Possibly Insane Individuals in Space:

  • Akira Tokugawa: Akira Tokugawa is the heir to Tokugawa Industries (a prominent Cybernetics Company based on Earth). He is a Wannabe Galactic Samurai bent on bringing Justice! In this quest he quickly lost his right arm to the Serial Killer Ithiis "HORROR OF THE STAGE"! And if that wasn't bad enough currently he is stuck in the Arenas as a Gladiatorial Slave... What will the future hold for him!?


  • Mika Tokugawa: The younger sister of Akira Tokugawa. She is a Third Grade Psychic, with great potential! She luckily managed to avoid capture by Slavers, due to Akira performing a bold sacrifice of himself so that she could escape. She seeks to free her brother from his slavehood, and with the "new help" she is receiving to build her own psychic potential she is on her way to do it...


  • Serenity Arvennicus, the Owner and Head Architect of the Serene Design Corporation, known for making luxurious space ships at affordable (or 'affordable' depending on who you ask, but that is neither here nor there) prices. After much hard work in designing all sorts of ships, and other mechanical creations, she decided to take a relaxing vacation to Lucky Shots. What sorts of things will happen in this vacation!?


  • Wildmax, a Ceedromian originally destined to be an Artist on his home planet. Buuuut... That wasn't fun enough for Wildmax's tastes, as he soon turned himself into a dual pistol gun-slingin' Bounty Hunter, travelling through the Galaxy to capture criminals (also occasionally making and selling art pieces) What sort of wild adventures lay in store for this gunslinger extraordinaire!

    • Shah-Nahul: A Masotonoid (Berserker Wookie Elephant Slave Race) Gladiator Slave on Praeclara. While he has a grandoise win record, he is perpetually stuck with the New Gladiators, due to him sparing all of his opponents even when the crowd wants him dead. This has earned him a great status as a "Face" but it has not helped out his moving up in the ranks. It is here he meets the enslaved Akira Tokugawa... How will Shah-Nahul teach this man the ropes?


    • Mika Tokugawa: The younger sister of Akira. She is a Third Grade Psychic, she managed to avoid capture by Slavers. She seeks to free her brother, and with the "new help" she is receiving to build her own psychic potential she is on her way to do it...


    • Elegax the Conqueror: A Deposed Child Warlord of the Iaquk (Slime based humanoids) People. She was on the Notorious Casino/Bar Planet Lucky Shots in order to gather more soldiers in order to reclaim her empire. Sadly she was captured by the same slavers who caught Akira. She is currently an Exotic Dancer Slave. Perhaps this position will allow her to gather the resources she needs...


    • Chocolate Chip Cookie (A Parasitic Life-form who is Currently a Humanoid): Once a Chocolate Chip Cookie, he has obtained a new humanoid form. While he is not sure about who he is, or what he is, he knows enough, say needing a space-ship. In this endeavor he managed to get in a High Stakes Poker Game (which has appeared to have last for some-time... Space Poker is rough like that) Will he ever finish his Poker Match, and forge a true path for himself!?


    • Captain Joesph T. London and The One Who Smells Like the Color Grey And Whose Soul Tastes Like the Sun (Aka Grey): Captain Joesph T. London is the Proud and Noble (at least that is what he'll say, in reality he is not really noble, but he is proud.) Captain of the USS Syncophant. His noble crew was sent to the planet Lucky Shots to find the Highly Dangerous Criminal only known as the "Organ Harvester". The Maoire (Moth person) Grey accompanies Captain London, (so London doesn't get into too much trouble). Currently Grey had just defeated a strange alien in the Warehouse District on Captain London's orders (who was quite upset he lost that battle).

    So do you want us to post our CS then? Well the Circus Bard is a go...

    Name: “The Laughing Scorpion” Gabriel Knotts

    Gender: Male
    Age: 37
    Race: Halfling

    Character Concept: A support character who bolsters other character’s strengths by using entertainment, and sneaks around to uncover dangerous things to the adventuring party.

    Physical Appearance: Gabriel Knotts is 3’2” tall. He has dark brown eyes, and has curly light brown hair, goes down to the middle of his back; he also sports a pair of thick side burns, which are rather scruffy. His eyebrows are rather bushy, and his eyelashes are extremely thick and luscious. Gabriel skin is medium light brown. Gabriel’s face is baby-smooth, and he has very thin lips. Gabriel wears light cloth armor which is a checkered motley pattern with light reds, dark purples, and light orange color scattered throughout the outfit. On his pants he has four sheaths on each side, which holds his throwing daggers. Gabriel wears no shoes over his feet, which have a thick layer of light brown hair over his toes. His toe-nails are trimmed perfectly, along with his fingernails which are all painted bright yellow. Gabriel Knott’s backpack is bright blue and has a giant logo on it which has in bright purple letters, “HUXLEY’S TRAVELLING CIRCUS” which encircles a laughing ringmaster.

    Equipment: At this point Gabriel has eight balanced throwing knives, 48 feet of hempen rope, a large backpack, a crowbar, a lock-pick set, a flute, a medium sized jug, light cloth armor, a small bag of jerky, a medium jar of berries, a medium sized blanket, a small container with yellow nail-polish.
    And an Aesthetically Painted Bloodied Warrior Headdress

    Personality: Gabriel is an entertainer/jokester at heart, and he is a hedonist. He takes most everything in a light-hearted way. He is affable person who welcomes people with open arms. If his hospitality is exploited, he will hold a stubborn grudge upon the person who violated the trust that was given.

    Goals: Kill the legendary King’s Slayer and Save the Day
    Form a World Renowned Circus
    Discover the various forms of the ancient’s entertainment.

    Beliefs: The only true purpose in life is entertainment.
    Every person is free to create their own fate and path in life.
    Hospitality is to be treated with the utmost care, those who violate the rules of Hospitality are not to be trusted.

    Background: Gabriel Knotts was born inside Huxley’s Travelling Circus, as his father worked there as a clown, and his mother worked there as an animal tamer. Gabriel’s early life was spent learning the art of performance, which he quickly took to. Gabriel became a juggler who would perform between the acrobats and the dancing bears. Eventually Huxley’s Travelling Circus would find a niche within the Kingdom of Clarksland, and then stay there as Huxley's Circus. So when the King called for adventurers to rescue his daughter, the Travelling Circus pondered whether or not they should travel to the Eternal Desert. This is where Gabriel Knotts decided that he would not only entertain the heroes; he would become a hero and defeat the King’s Slayer. So he left the circus in the hopes of one day being able to become a hero, and use the status he had gained from the experience to finance his own circus, so he could travel around the world and entertain the people as Huxley's did while it still traveled.

    Racial Traits: Halflings are known for their dexterity and sharp sense of hearing.

    Known Skills: Gabriel is a proficient juggler, clown, flute-player and overall entertainer. He is also good at sneaking around, and picking locks in an efficient fashion.
    Known Spells/Powers: Gabriel has the power to bolster others strength/will with entertainment. He also can weaken enemies through quips, insults, and other negative jests.
    For it was destiny! I suppose...
