“All of these scientists and philosophers, attempting to find some rules which govern the Arcanum. What they do not realize is our universe only has one ultimate rule…

There are no rules.”
-The Phoenix-Emperor, Gabriel Angelos

Welcome to Rise of the Stars, a advanced Sci-Fi Fantasy NRP set in Space, which is entirely freeform. Due to the fantasy tag, magic is completely acceptable explanation for everything, or any other supernatural force or powers you would like to use. For those who are interested in purely using technology, don’t worry, I tend to go with the rule that magic and technology are equal for the most part. Also on that note, while I shall be allowing magic boosting technology, anyone going purely technology will be allowed highly more advanced technology so they can still compete.

Another idea I like to express in this RP is that we are all well-established nations, either being Grand Empires or vast Federations. At most minimum nations will at least have some form of informal relations with each other. If for whatever reason you need to have your nation be relatively unknown, contact me upon the start of the actual OOC and I will judge from there.

Also no player big bads(And when I say that, I mean energy beings, hive minds, or other factions who's sole purpose is to destroy everything), there is one exception I am making but that is only because the person is trustworthy and shall make sure everything is fun for everyone involved.

Beyond that I have nothing else to say, I know this is short but I hope this is enough to attract your interest.

So, how far in the future are we talking here, any specific date, and is this in the Milky Way, Andromeda, or some other obscure galaxy?

Welcome to the feast brothers...

Which of you will be the first course?

It is going to be set in the Milky Way, and there is no specific date as of yet, but we are looking quite a few millennia from the current human year.

Ah ok, thank you. (Prepare for Space Crusaders, Deus Space Vult)

Hmm. Vague interest.

Also, is there an established human faction as of yet? As in a player as the core-human group controlling earth and setting the origin?

Could be potentially interesting. I'll keep an eye on this.

Earth(and it's associated history) has disappeared from the current galaxy. There is a "main" human faction, but it and it's various incarnations have existed for thousands of years.

Wait, by disappeared, do you mean vanished, or do you mean it was destroyed? Because I wanted Earth as a capital for my Evolved Human Empire.

Well, looks my intended faction is no longer viable here. I'll keep watching.

For all intents and purposes, vanished, I do plan to have it show up later, but not at the current moment.

What was your intended faction? I may be able to come up with a work a round.

Ah ok, would it be ok though, for me to have a planet known as new Earth, a planet that they found that is very similar to earth with how much water it has and placement in its solar system, but it would not be Earth.

Earth has vanished for so long that they literally don't even know Earth as a word.

Hmm ok, I will have to figure out a way to work that in my history. So yes, creating my sheet should be fun, Prepare for Homo-Superior.
Also, speaking of Character and Nation sheets, when will we get the sheets to make the nations.

The Pan-Solar Confederacy, essentially a Holy Roman Empire-esque faction centered around the Sol system and for the most part humanocentric. By the very nature of your first comment, this faction is now impossible. I would question how it is that Earth has vanished, as that is an exceedingly silly notion for a planet to just vanish, but it seems you already have plans for Earth and the majority of humans.

Well when I say vanished, it still exists, it just that no one knows it is the Sol System or Earth, as knowledge of it was lost in several dark periods in human history.

Does it have to be centered around Sol?

Pan-Solar Confederacy. The core of the faction is centered around Sol, and the capital of the government being Earth and Mars.

Why Not Pan-Centauri Confederacy, you could have some story about how humans colonised the multiple Centauri Systems, and when the dark ages of Human History began, they lost contact, leading the the creation of the Pan-Centauri Confederacy, that including every Human Planet in all of the Centauri Systems?

-shrugs- Could be whatever, mostly wondering why it is that Earth is mysteriously off-limits and what sort of plans are going on there. It feels really arbitrary, especially with the whole "Been so long its completely forgotten."

@duck55223 How long exactly has it been since humanity has attained FTL?

Thousands of years.
