With the pilot episodes for Star Trek: Discovery recently launching, as well as the Trek-inspired comedy The Orville taking flight over on FOX, I wanted to see if anybody here was intenrested in an RP inspired by classic Star Trek.
The premise of the RP is simple. We play as the bridge crew abaord an exploratory starship. Our continuing mission is to seek out new life, and new civilizations. To boldly go where no one has gone before. The aim of the RP would be to capture the style and tone of Star Trek, but it would NOT be set in the Star Trek universe. This will relieve the burden of heavy continuinty, and allow for more players to be involved as in-depth knowledge of Trek wouldn't be required.
I've placed this interest check in the advanced section since Star Trek is known for having well-written characters, and interesting, thought-provoking stories. Since this RP is set an original sci-fi universe inspired by Trek, world-building will be an intrisinc part of the storytelling. This is an exploratory vessel, who knows what we will discover? The stories of these discoveris will help to build the universe.
If you love science fiction, and this is something you're interested in, let me know. We can start discussing character ideas here as well.
