Making a relatively short RP, based on this fluff.

Regardless, I'll condense the plot in the following.

A joint-project between Dynami, Aerodu and the Drakel resulted in the creation of the first space-travel capable craft, primitive as it was, the technology from Dynami and designs from Aerodu proved to create quite a capable ship.

During the test run, to break off from the planet's gravity and loop around the planet before returning, the ship's crew managed to locate something in orbit around Lore. A derelict, ancient construct in space with quite the striking resemblance to the Dynami Hive, smaller in size but still.

The discovery was kept even more secret than the space-program itself, and the three groups sent a team of best people to the derelict station. To their surprise they found the internal systems to be in working order, despite the hull having sustained rather heavy damage in some ancient battle, leaving most of the station unusable. After several weeks the crew was even able to activate life-support, allowing them to work outside their space-suits.

Their job was to find out the origin of the station and it's purpose, as well whether or not it was linked to the Dynami Hive.

A day ago contact with the crew of the derelict station was lost.

Your job, enter the station, find out the current situation and assist as necessary.



This is a purely combat RP, so you can go crazy designing your big god damn hero PC's. After all, the team which is sent in to investigate is made up of the very best for the job(under the circumstances of course, they were sort of in a hurry to whip up as competent of a team as possible because hey, a whole crew of the very best don't just stop responding to calls out of a whim).

There will be 3 teams. One is the PC team, the other two are made of NPC's. Depending how many people sign up for this, I'll pick the NPC team size accordingly. Will it matter? WHO KNOWS(not really, that would be stupid).

Any questions? And no, no bios.
Post your character equipment and special skills to obtain an OK. Or not. Depends what your char is like. Everything else about your char? In the RP. Yes, even what they look like, I don't care about that in this thread.

Sounds like an interesting RP. It's been quite a while since I played in a Sci-Fi RP.

Character Identification: Ghost
Equipement: 2 submachine gun, 2 pistols, shocking pumping shotgun, 3 flash grenades, 5 frag grenades, military knife, med-pack, survival kit, light-dampening visor, sound-dampening belt.
Special Skills:
Cloaking: Becomes invisible to the eyes.
Enhanced Senses: Hearing is enhanced, can see farther than a normal human, can see in darkness.
Enhanced Dexterity: Increased speed, reflexes increased.
Telepath: Can speak telepathically with allies in a mile radius.


Yeah, it's like an enhanced version of the Starcraft's Ghosts. It's time for a mindless assassin experiment.

This reminds me of your other Sci-Fi RP, Four Commandments. Which lead me to my question, is a full exoskeleton body armor allowed? If yes then I'd be lazy and just use my character from said RP. If not I guess I'd have to whip up a new one.

Sure, let's just say it was made by Drakels since they're the only ones with that sort of tech widely available anyway.

Dynami have some exo-skel armor too, but it's rare since they can't manufacture those themselves, just repair what they have in store in the Hive.

Fine with me. I'll make a guy who packs some heat then. I'll call him Murdock to honor the good time we had with the Spur.

Equipment
- Full exoskeleton body armor: Strong armor with included hydraulic system. Equipped with several sensors, location and communication devices and a flashlight. Person wearing this is unable to run or jump.
- Fusion rifle (shoots plasma or lasers or whatever you can fit into this setting): Allows rapid fire or slow, charged shots that do more damage.

I thought about taking some explosives but then remembered that we're in a space ship.

Skills
- Thermal vision (provided by the armor)
- Night vision (provided by the armor)
- Enhanced physical strength (provided by, you guessed it, the armor)
- Excellent marksmanship


Can't think of anything else. This character seems a bit half-assed to me but I guess it will suffice. Can't wait until some monster peels him out of his armor and discovers that he's a quadriplegic midget.

That'd be a shock.
Otherwise, looking good so far, although yeah, Max is PLAYING WITH FIRE- I mean PLAYING WITH VACUUM with his grenades.

Maybe that's his thing?

I wait eagerly to see what races you actually decide to use with these chars. Oh the possibilities.

I hope you intend to post more often than once every three months.

Oh wait, you requested races? Guess I'll be human, since they have some knack to be used as experiments and loves to use new technologies.

Gotta keep some explosives in case things go bad. You know, if we can't get back that ship, since we're the best of the best, no one will have it.

That's the spirit.

Also, I didn't request anyone to say 'em here. Not that I don't care where you say that, or if you keep it a secret and suddenly everyone realizes that the sniper of the team is a troll.

That sniper would indeed loose all esteem I would've had for him.

And only then do you realize that he's disgusted by your puny human-sized weapons when he has a gun sized-up and effectively meant to punch through tanks.

As long one is efficient with his weapons, there's no shame in the size of the weapon. There's no use for a super big sniper for a human if you can't even use it correctly.

So wouldn't the troll be a better soldier in normal situations then when their "normal" gun is better in the damage-aspect than human-orientated ones?

Assuming of course that the human and troll's being compared were of equal skill.

Wait, we're not doing this here. I'm not starting a fad like Wolfie does where people talk whatever.

If you're implying that I shut up and drop the suject dead, will do.

On another topic, when do you plan to start this?
