This roleplay is set in a (hopefully) fictitious future, where in the year 2196 experiments with a new type of faster than light (FTL) technology resulted in an attack by an alien race which tore through our defenses in the Three Day War only stopped by a joint defense in the orbit of Mars lead by Admiral Roland Constantine. After the war humanity banded together like never before, all factions uniting under the banner of the United Earth Council. Ten grueling years past, leaps in technology from shielding technology to artificial intelligence were abundant all in the hopes of preparing for the next wave. Nobody was of the impression that they wouldn't return, when deep space scanners detected them amassing a fleet far larger than the one that decimated our system a plan had to be concocted as despite advances in technology there was no way Humanity could survive such an onslaught.

Project Genesis was concocted in secret, 12 Arks would be constructed to ensure humanity survived. Filled with the best and brightest humanity had to offer, each ship capable of hosting 100,000 waking people with a further 500,000 in cryogenic stasis. At the same time a hyperspace gate would be built in orbit, sending each Ark to a different distant solar system to minimize the chance of being followed or the possibility of sending the Arks into a dangerous system. Each Ark built with the best technology, the best resources humanity had to offer however the labor was mainly done by robots and trusted individuals to reduce panic. As soon as the cryogenic bays were completed healthy young individuals were chosen from the population at random and brought aboard the ships in secret.

10 Years later, with the Devastator fleet on the move again Project Genesis was made public, riots happened as expected however many people seemed to understand the necessity of their sacrifice. Admiral Constantine, a hero of humanity delivered the address and promised that he would lead all military units willing to fight against the Devastators. Not one member of the military went A.W.O.L, or asked to be released from service. In the mean time the best servicemen were assigned to the Arks, as well as Scientists from all fields, historians, doctors and engineers.

The Arks have been launched, the Vitae the one this story will focus on. Having embarked on its journey and left the rest of humanity behind, the vessel entered into a new star system. Its crew has since embarked on its first mission, which ended badly. Still, the future is bright and unknown for those aboard the Ark, humanity's last hope.



So, long story short, this RP is one that has been going on for months now. Fortunately its idea allows new people to easily join it. The RP has a committed group of roleplayers in it already but new blood is what we're looking for. I am the GM of it alongside @Rawk, though the RP was not our initial idea. It was @Sep's idea and his baby, though he has since left the Guild due to personal reasons and given us his blessing to continue NTB as we see fit.

We are in a unique situation, though it is a workable one for Rawk and I. We're hoping to push on and continue with this brilliant RP concept. If you are interested then don't be afraid to apply, or shoot me a message. Also feel free to swing by the Discord chat and chat with all of the players.

I'll express my interest in this! My only question is how do you plan on incorporating new players with the already existing ones? On their return to the Ark?

@Romero thanks for the interest! Well the Ark is a massive ship with thousands of people. We can always have new characters appear and become prominent, even could have the new ones have pre existing relationships with older player characters.

Right now our plan is to focus on what's going on in the Vitae, there will be lots of interaction while Rawk and I slowly reveal our future plot plans.

Well consider me on board (literally in this case). Should I write up a Character Sheet and post it in the OOC then? And any particular requests for profession that could help the RP run smoother for you guys?

@Romero awesome to hear! Yes if you'd like to get going on a character then fill out the CS and post it on the OOC. I can't think of any roles we're in pressing need of but there's plenty available. You can pretty much come up with whatever you'd enjoy playing most.

@AtlasRize Absolutely brother, check out the OOC & story summary and see what we're up to :)

Any profession is open TBH, but we are also looking for military characters and pilots.

That's what I like hear, chica!

So I'm thinking that the Ark needs an unofficial/official civilian "leader", so how about you insert "Eva" in there (sans the whole undead thing of course) and we call it done?

I kid...but seriously, do it ;)
