So I've been playing around with this for a while, but I've finally written up some basic info. If enough people are interested I'll set up a character sheet. Also I would appreciate and input into the scenario because I'm currently having trouble with that.
Terra 5:
AKA T-5
The fifth habitable planet colonised by The Intergalactic Colonisation Initiative (ICI), it is located on the far side of the Andromeda galaxy and was first visited by humans in the year 2256. However, it was soon discovered that despite meeting all of the criteria for being habitable, it had a slew of trouble. The air was breathable, but contained numerous cancer causing agents, the water was heavily polluted with arsenic and heavy metals, the earth contained no valuable minerals and was incapable of supporting most flora.
So it was no surprise that the ICI, later forming the Intergalactic People's Republic (IPR) largely abandoned the planet, leaving a space port, complete with teleportation to and from the planet, a variety of work equipment and a small city on the surface. It lay in ruin for several years until a variety of space pirates and other fugitives used it as a base. Fueled with money obtained from illegal sources, it became the central base of operations for virtually all illegal groups operating in the Andromeda galaxy. Eventually, a semi democratic government formed, run by the most influential pirate captains and individuals living on the planet, known simply as The Council.
Now, in the year 2578, it’s a hive of villainy, lawlessness and criminals. With only a few corrupt IPR ships and officials there to maintain peace, it is perhaps the most dangerous place in the explored universe. It is also the setting for this RP.
Locations:
Shell: The capital city of the planet, located around large spring with the purest water on the planet. Basically a fortress, with extremely powerful anti-air and anti-ground defences. The base of operations for The Council and most of the pirates.
The Shipyard: A huge circular space station orbiting T-5, which repairs, refuels and even builds ships. Other than Shell, it is the most rich and powerful place around T-5. It is also connect to Shell by a couple of long ranged, fixed teleporters.
The Pit: A crater that is over 100km wide on the opposite side of T-5 from Shell, The Pit is a junkyard. Filled with destroyed ships, weapons and technology, The Pit is run by the Scavs, an organised group of scavengers and treasure hunters who specialise in recovering parts from The Pit. Supposedly, there is a hidden city somewhere in The Pit that is run by the Scavs, but no one outside of the group has ever seen it.
The story starts following two ships, an IPR military ship and a pirate ship who, just before fighting each other, are engaged by an unknown enemy ship. The IPR ship was doing a routine scouting expedition and is called The Atlanta. The pirate ship is called The Raven. The story will mostly follow the two crews, but plenty of other characters will show up too.
NB: If anyone wants to make a non-human character put up a separate post or send me a pm with details on the new species.
