Anyone interested in a futuristic adventure story?

It would have some sci fi elements, a fun story and things like that. Would take place in a city-like setting and maybe traveling to a few other regions or maybe planets.

Our characters would be able to use weapons like energy swords, various guns and some technology-based equipment.

I can come up with a specific storyline if I see people are interested!

I will probably limit the amount of people to 8-10 people that can participate.

If people are interested, I will make the CS and the first 8-10 people that make a character sheet will be on board!

If you have any questions or anything, feel free to ask :)

I very much enjoy the Sci-Fi genre~

I may be interested.

@StarInaBox: Is there really another user here with the name DickInABox?

@WilsonTurner: Fancy seeing you here. Small forum.

@Water Akira: I actually have some ideas (since this genre is my forte). I'm not sure I want to co-GM exactly, since that feels like cheating to me, but I'd be more than happy to share some ideas with you and build something once you give me a good idea of what you have going on. You down?

Oh, and I think 8-10 people is a bit much. I won't tell you what to do in YOUR RP, but I'm kindly advising that you might be better off shaving that number to 3-6. Short attention spans are the norm here. Your RP has a high probability of dying, sadly.

maybe. the genre is my forte as well :P

Awesome! Glad to see there is interest.

I'll come up with a description of the story and the CS and if people are still interested, we can move on from there.

I'm interested in this, sci-fi is my jam.

I'm a big fan of apocalyptic and sci-fi settings, so I admit that I'm interested myself.

Nah, Dick In A Box was a Saturday Night Live skit. Fun fact: StarInaBox had nothing to do with it. I just felt the need for a title.

I'm finishing up the story description and CS now. Should be up soon

@Water Akira: Cyberpunk or just sci-fi? Also, way to not respond to my PM.

The year is 2250.

Mankind has made several advances in technology. New forms of transportation, communication and weaponry thrive in this new age.

Although new conveniences have brought about an atmosphere of peace, a new evil is burning.
Strange monsters have began to appear in the most popular cities and regions on Earth. Powerful creatures that seem to attack the most important areas, with tactics and planning far greater than that of an unintelligent life form.

Where did these monsters come from? And how are they able to attack strategically without access to human information?

Several vigilante groups have emerged to combat the oncoming threat. From mercenaries to organized defense units.

All the while, various cities are being attacked by the strange creatures.

There are even rumors of human-piloted mech units assisting some of the monsters...

Enter a new age of technology. Arm yourself with weapons, skills and courage. Choose allies, build strategies and use teamwork to gain the upperhand and defend Earth from the alien threat.

Hey everyone!

Okay so the people that have expressed interest already will have priority, as far as joining the RP. And anyone else can join until the limit is reached.

@Inquisidora, I replied to your message

Pleeeeeeeeease don't go with 'mecha.' My interest in this will completely die if someone uses a 'mecha' with a crapton of stuff that don't even sound realistic.

The difference between 'mech' and 'mecha' in my opinion is that 'mecha' with the 'a' means anime mech. And no. Mecha do giant sword fights with oddly advanced weapons with oddly outdated war. Mechs are walking tanks where a mech half the size of a mecha could smash a hole in it from sixteen miles away before the mecha even saw it.

There is reason we have Marines rather than carbon-fiber armored knights.

not for me, my interest will be lost so quickly that it'd be more akin to the movement of particles in a particle accelerator than anything.

But other than that, looks uber cool.

ROFL! Mr. Turner with more bars! Seriously though, I'm with you. My interest waned once I saw that there will be no adventuring. Seems like more of a war RP. Too many people also.

This niggah said "more akin to the movement of particles"! WTF?! XD

Already have a character, btw.

Hmm, I agree with you about the mecha part.

In that case, for the vehicle option it won't include mecha units. It will only be futuristic versions of standard vehicles. Thanks for bringing that up, good point.

If I may... I think that adventure is a little hard to put in to Sci-fi because there isn't any real reason to go anywhere. You can just build an uber OP hand held rail gun that has a grenade launcher with sonic bomb explosives and kill everything. And a few of us want some adventuring :3

Aye, but there COULD be adventure:

Space exploration. Say... something from Interstellar. A wormhole appears, being powered artificially from the other side. A team of explorers, soldiers, and diplomats go through to find the mysterious beings who powered the said wormhole- and instead find a system filled with planets with relics of the civilization past. Searching through the different planets- perhaps ranging from jungly to deserty, from inhabited by defense 'bots to really dangerous creatures (that may or may not have been genetically engineered) in search of the advanced beings.

It's likely that we'd have ships across the solar system by the time 2250 comes around, so sending a ship through wouldn't be too much of a project.

It DID say scifi adventure, to be fair- this does look more like any other tech-versus-rawrs. This makes it a little more interesting, and less likely to be purely combat.

Of course, an uberweapon prolly wouldn't be allowed/accepted.

My character has inspiration from Titanfall, so he'd be ideal for exploration, fast or slow. And when shit hits the fan, the starship in orbit could drop some goodies for him to get- just have to survive 'till it drops.
