Welcome to the future. In space. With ships. Spaceships.
You’re some low-life, a human, who needs some money and doesn’t mind beating a few moron’s heads in for it. You have all been hired by Jafar’s Great Job List to investigate electrical anomalies on a big Mercury solar farm. You and the other players have been assembled into one or two teams, the likes of which has been seen semi-frequently before. You will tackle jobs together, provided you make it out of this one alive.

Anyway, here you are, in the future. Mankind’s done a pretty good job of colonizing the solar system, and one private entity has even managed to create a ferry between stars. The world outside of regulated planets and stations is pretty wild, all things considered. Think the wild west, only in space. There’s no west in space. It’s just wild all around.

In this particular game, I will control everything that’s not you. I am the world, the universe, the life of the world, the environment, the bad guys, the good guys, the neutrals, the dead and the living. Power trip over. I’m the GM. I won’t have a character, because I control the NPCs and stuff. Enjoy.
(@Civetta will be acting as the character-based moderator)

• Don’t take control over other people’s characters, unless one of the GMs and the owner of the character themselves give you the go-ahead. If someone leaves, we’ll work out who should take over the dude they were in control over. Or murder them.
• Don’t do the sexy stuff here. This roleplay is for shootyshooty, not bangybangy.
• Don’t be a jerk. Your little bounty hunter or whatever, sure, go ahead. Keep yourself separated from your character in this regard, if you wanna do that. Treat the other players with respect, basically.
• Please keep in mind that if you decide to go off on your own for whatever reason, even if you’re still technically with the team, damages the whole cooperative aspect of the roleplay. Try to get along with the others. Nobody likes a loner.
• Try not to treat the roleplay like a game you have to win. Losing is an important part of pretty much every story out there. Probably including this one.
• Remember to have fun. The rules can be bent or outright changed, if need be. Talk to me if you’re unsure about something.
• No godmodding or metagaming, you know the drill.

Your character must be human. No extraterrestrials, dogs, cyborgs, dragons, or psychics allowed.
Your character is a newbie mercenary or bounty hunter of some variety.
Your character is not a seasoned killer. They are an unseasoned, undercooked killer. They’re that soldier who was in one battle, didn’t actually manage to win, and deserted before fighting anyone. They suck at murder. This will change, eventually.

You don’t need some crazy character sheet, just whichever information you think is relevant. Please include a physical description, the name, and a little tiny bit of what they did before Jafar’s Great Job List convinced them to work for Jafar.

Alongside your basic character information, please include a sample of your writing ability by creating a small scene in a spaceport. The character is approached by a man with a thick new yorker accent, who in some way or another convinces them to work for Jafar’s Great Job List. Please use at least five sentences in this section. This will be posted to the IC, once you have been accepted.

Please post in OOC until I give the go-ahead for IC. I'm looking for a small group of aproximately 7 players. Do not use the Characters tab for applications.

We don't bite... particularly hard.

Edit: First character sheet is up.
