Great idea, by the way!

Hey, no problem c: And I'm certainly for the idea - old junked space stations held together by patchwork repairs from fired engineers and protected by discharged soldiers, the rich own their own moons or have them built for a private house.

@Nevix, as for my own ideas, depends on what kinda tone you guys want. For instance, genetic engineering of creatures - we go drama or very dark, rich people can pay for their own special pets to be made. Sometimes, these pets are made only to be hunted: the best of all dangerous animals, thrown together for the sake of sport. Others are distressingly human-looking, and there are even smugglers and pirates who won't associate with their owners in the name of standards. A few still escape and are capable of decimating native populations in a matter of weeks.

On the more light-hearted or comical end, good news, they made Furbies! Bad news, they made Furbies. If you ever hear Furbish on the comms, fly as fast as you can in the exact opposite direction of wherever you were headed. Even the most hardened soldiers and the most vile smugglers and space pirates will pale at the cry of a Furby.

@RBYDark I dig all of those. Those Genetically engineered creatures kind of give me the chills.

Another idea, a planet founded by American nationalists. They're led by either a stereotypical "yee-haw" cowboy or an R. Lee Emery knock off. The moons are all named after U.S. presidents and are rich enough in resources to be a target for bandits and rebels, giving us such humorous battles as "The Skirmish ar Eisenhower V" or "The Lincoln II massacre."

@Nevix@RBYDark, great ideas!

Personally, I like the sound of a dark galaxy which encompasses them all (ah, maybe not the Furbies? XD ).

In addition, let us decide this- are there other intelligent life forms out there? (I know, spooky...)

I like the idea that, yes, there are some.

But, maybe their numbers and power have been in great decline from years of waring each other, long before humans ever set foot on the galactic scene, which made it much easier in the beginning for the less-advanced humans to survive in this knew world and not just be steamrolled.

With the help of quickly made allies, seer luck and underhanded actions, humans have been adle to scrape themselves out a large spot in space and are somewhat respected (not by all). But in the beginning, there was enslavement and farming (we are tender and juicy) of the humans, though mainly the lower classes- those deemed lesser first by humans. This would lead to raids on human populations, general mistreatment of people, and this is where some of the genetic alteration comes in.

The humans that were taken for work and food have been hybrid and genetically modified so that they are now almost their own beeds, very different from humans. This means that nurmally, people are not on the menu, though that does not mean that if the situation arises, one of the aliens in question will not take the opportunity to have a filling meal.

Thoughts?

@Revenant Writer@Nevix

Seconding these ideas myself, though also suspecting it would've been members of the upper class to initially be caught and made into livestock by the aliens, on account of being able to afford going that deep first. Many of the more powerful humans who escaped that fate have taught resentment down their family lines?

Also thinking we should make the thread now for further discussion, y/n?

@RBYDark

Very true. After that, they could have probably just flown to earth for more. (You know, big family BBQ and all...)

And yeah, we need an OOC Chat thread.

Yes, we need a thread. Could one of you be so kind as to create it? I'm going on vacation tomorrow and don't have time to today. I left it so open-ended for precisely this reason. As long as there's a crew of smugglers, I'm game. Hell, the ship doesn't even have to be called the Serpentis.

@Nevix

Have a great time on vacation, Nevix!
I have to go to bed now, but if it hasn't been made by the time I am on tomorrow, I will make the page. And it is nice to know how flexible you are with this, as it will be fun to really build the world together.

Oh, and since @RBYDark has already picked a character (navigator), I would like the pilot. Please.

I will be busy through tomorrow morning and afternoon. If you guys can wait, I can put it up in the evening.

EDIT: ...that'll teach me to refresh the page first.
