Rebirth has another idea, what a surprise!

For this RP I was thinking about a crew of maybe 5-6 members, each with a designated position on the ship and things to control. The simple plot is that the galaxy spanning peaceful Federation has been ruthlessly destroyed by the now dominant Rebellion. You and the rest of the crew have just boarded a light ship and blasted away from the final battle, in which the final Federation held system (and the last remnants of its fleet) were captured. As far as you know, you’re the only that made it out. From there, with only a cryptic instruction to head to the outer reaches (right through the Rebellion core planets mind you) you’ll be fighting, exploring, upgrading or even outright buying new vessels, upgrading and expanding your armada to eventually take on the ruthless and mysterious Rebellion. By the end of it, you could be outright challenging the fleet with gigantic battleships and fleets under control, or silently cruising by security in a lone vessel with experimental stealth tech. The possibilities are endless! Anyways let me know if any of you guys are interested, and I’ll expand this into an actual thing with a CS and positions and all that cool stuff. Thanks for reading!

How much FTL experience is needed? I have never played the game (though I am interested in grabbing it), but I am interested in this.

@Lotrix Molick literally none, it’s inspired by the games universe and mechanics, I’m not actually ripping anything from it :)

Perfect, I just wanted to make sure that I didn't need to know about the upgrade system from the game. I'm thinking heavily towards an Engineer or Med Tech.

I'll say I'm interested too. I'm thinking Head of Security/Security crewman or maybe weapons tech.

I am going to make an assumption that all crew are weapons and armor trained due to military membership?

I'm always a fan of Sci-fi shinnanigans and am also a big fan of FTL! :U

Count me in.

You have my interest, Cap’in.

One more person and I’ll start work on the CS :) thanks to all of you who have expressed interest so far!

Definitely interested as well!

Also with ship of 5/6 ish, would everybody on the ship be one of our characters then?

Yes, everyone will control a part of the ship. In the later game with battleships and frigates there will be NPCS running the individual things, but you would command the ship itself and not every little thing on it. I’m other news, I’ll get to work on a Full RP! Should have it up in the coming days :)

Sweet! Sounds good.

Oh, what is the race situation like?

@Lumiere I was thinking about using the same races from FTL, but I’ll be expanding upon them a little bit.

Any ETA on and OOC? ^^

@Legion-114 well considering I just started yesterday, I’d say 3-5 days at the most.

Ah, in that case I was planning on playinh a Mantis of sorts.

I shall be waiting most (im)patiently then.

Also guessing some of the more... exotic races like Lanius and Crystal will be off limits? What about having multiple characters?

@brokndremes yeah, Lanius and Crystal will be off limits until pretty late in the game, and for characters you can only have one each, to keep things simple in the posting department and letting me keep track of everything.

Dibs on being a psychic slug ^^
