Now, the way I am going to do this: as we move on, I will post some info here you can defer to in your writing. I hate when someone writes a narrator and every following player basically re-writes what was already said. If the person before you already pointed out something, feel free to assume readers know its there now and skip it if it's unnecessary to your experiences. So I am going to give you the opportunity to take info and use it, or skip some details. That way, I hope that not everyone's post will read the same way (only from their own character's perspective.) In addition, you may also ADD details especially as you go exploring a space, because we're developing a world here and it's going to have an endless variety of new things to look at and touch and probably run in the opposite direction of post haste...

You don't have to make each post a novel - just make it quality writing. I don't mind stopping at just one paragraph but please skip one liners. If you want to write dialogue with someone you may want to do it by PM then one of you make a post.

So for the first chapter...

As the intro said, you're awakening from the cryo chamber and there is a voice urging you to evacuate. You've been in stasis for 30 years, so perhaps you don't move so quickly or perceive what's around you so well just yet. Think of being yanked from a very hard sleep. Red emergency lights flash, and other chambers are opening about you. Maybe they're alive, maybe they're not. Life support is failing, the air is old. There seems to be engine failures or something else very tech and probably pretty damn critical. You have to find the escape pods following a trail of emergency lighting on the floor (like an airplane today has), down the cylindrical ship. They are between the chambers and the storage facility. The storage (where crates of other items you brought are) is sealed shut by the emergency protocols. You can not get in there. You're going to have to give up on that and get into the pod, and hope that it lands you somewhere safely. Your pods have windows. You can see out when you are in it, and pods have the capacity of a dozen people each. Do try to remember your pack at the base of your cryo chamber before you leave. Pods have limited fuel and have an auto homing system meant to find the nearest planet and land on not-water if possible (also not lava, cuz, you know, fail.) They will not land near each other, as they assume possible destruction or failure of other pods and will likely drift very far from each other as they make their way down. You will not be able to zip around in this thing later.

So that's your reference info for chapter one. Good luck, and hang on to your towels. I'm going to start setting my post now, but if you post before me in IC that's fine, I won't be mad. I don't want to set a particular posting order, just try not to be That Guy that dominates the postings and overrides others! :)
