 Our World [RPGU] :: Role-Player's Guild Universe :: An Attempt To Make A Better Mousetrap :: Basics :: The RPGU (Role-Player's Guild Universe) as it is called, is not one point in space-time; there is no one plot, accept for the one that the players create. Everything is connected, in some minuscule way, to everything else that happens within this world. Characters and Empires are free to rise and fall in this universe, free from the burden of a creator's looming hand, or the confining walls of a singular plot. And nowhere is off limits. Your character can enter any point in this universe; with the singular rule, and obvious, rule that you can't be in two places at once. Unless you have a clone of yourself, which is likely, keep it down to one thread. But feel free to move your character(s) between threads. The basics are quite easily to sum up, considering the real content comes from the players themselves. :: Rules :: Now for the hard part. In order to maintain some semblance of order in the RPGU universe, I'm drafted a short list of rules. It's nothing draconian, but it works.
:: The Third Great Imperium Of Humanity :: Patriam Fecisti Diversis De Fentibus Unam Fortis Et Liber The lineage of humanity is a long one, dating back thousands upon thousands of years into the murky past. From their humble origins on blue-green terra, the sphere of human influence has grown beyond belief. The Terran population started their ascent to the stars nearly sixteen thousand years ago, with the invention of Faster-Than-Light engines. They were one of the first races to do so, and are now none of the last great powers standing. In every corner of the galaxy, you can find agents of humanity; or the agents of humanity could find you, on some blue-green planet just like their homeworld of Terra. :: Join Us -- Serve With Honor ::

I like this idea. What races can we do? What is open for us to be allowed to do?

This does look interesting... So, how does it work? There will be multiple threads?

Ok, so I have another question.  We are making one character, but we are also making a nation for that character? And if so, do we control this nation?
