[OOC] Hellion Exiles

[Infamous Empath]

@Thread Generator SIN Damn, how did I miss that? Nah, just to make it easier, can i replace it with the Empirion? or if its taken i can make my own ship

[twave]

@GingerBoi123@Rune_Alchemist Like I said, they could run into each other. Which would require waiting until we have a proper setting. I feel like a Or'Taleen showing up alone in human space looking for a ship might create a little buzz though. Not all of that buzz necessarily positive.

[Infamous Empath]

also plz tag me when the IC is up, ty. even with a tag, sometimes it takes me a day or so to get to it

[Rune_Alchemist]

@t2wave

Well

Considering Alexis' thing for aliens of all kind.

She'll definitely help the Or'Taleen out xD

[GingerBoi123]

@Rune_Alchemist@t2wave

I think Nova might be a bit skeptical at first, knowing the race's 'assimilation' method

@GingerBoi123

Which is perfect. Makes for a more dynamic crew.

[Rune_Alchemist]

@GingerBoi123@t2wave

And thus starts some delicious tension with the crew.

Not sure how Alexis would react to any sort of...disagreements between her crew aside from 'get over it', though. She's not a good diplomat/negotiator. That's what Omega's for though xD

[GingerBoi123]

@t2wave@Rune_Alchemist

Yeah, I don't think Nova would be hostile, more distrustful if anything

[twave]

@GingerBoi123 Nova might also be aware that a human is an unusual choice for a Or'Taleen host.

[GingerBoi123]

@t2waveYeah actually. Makes sense and adds more spice

[Lovisa Coldeyes]

@Rune_Alchemist

Ooo that's interesting

Let's say that's true

[Rune_Alchemist]

@Lovisa Coldeyes

Alright, cool.

I don't think it should be anything too complicated I just imagined Omor could have been a bit of a role model for Kid Alexis, especially if she visited more than a few times.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone else realize how hard it is to find a non-sexualized picture of a catgirl? You'd think you could find a picture of a tigerlike person.

@TheUnknowable

I feel like I could find something pretty quick.

[Kiwiwiwi]

Done bro

My characters

Important names - Staff sergeant Ba'is, corporal Yamada, private Willis, the rest are about twenty or so humans and Ualos, blue aliens.

Ages - 17-35

Species - Human and Ualos, blue humanoid aliens who are only slightly larger than the average Human.

Role - They are a squad of UGCP marines within the 625th marine and paratrooper assault corps, otherwise known as MAPAC, stationed aboard the Empirion waiting for further orders from UGCP high command.

Gender - Mostly males with around three females including corporal Yamada, the Ualos, according to tradition, only let men go to war.

Appearance -

Corporal Yamada

Private Willis

Staff sergeant Ba'is

Squad armour

Personality - the squad as a whole try to have a good time making sure that moral is super high, the Ualos on the other hand are very serious and brooding.

History - though the squad is not very well known it has withstood many battles and lost many men, especially so for staff sergeant Ba'is, exiting his tenth and final year of service in the UGCP military.

Equipment - the squad is armed with the same armour and weapons as any other soldier in the UGCP (if it's alright to name the equipment)
- MK III shock battle armour
- MK III communications and targeting helmet
- emergency parachute
- compact meal and hydration unit
- Computerised assault carbine
- standard bayonette

Ship - the squad is currently aboard the Empirion awaiting orders.

Activity - almost every day that is unless I have things to do, one of which is a youth tramp just next weekend.

[TheUnknowable]

@t2waveI did too, but short of Kajiit (which don't fit sci-fi) and one pic of Juhani from Kotor, I couldn't find one that fit. Maybe I was using the wrong search terms or something.

in fact, the pic I settled on was a deviant art pic of a Kajiit.

[Vecee]

Grace

Name - Grace

Age - 18

Species - Kathirian

Role - Pirate

Gender - Female

Appearance - Like any other Kathirian, Grace has fur covering her body and overall humanoid. Her body is pear shaped and eyes yellow with black pupils. Fur is primarily light orange, with white going down from the neck and over the torso. She is way shorter then the average human height, but is muscular enough to carry her own weight.

Her apparel is very non-combat orientated, utilizing a flexible but tight full body suit to survive the void of space, or hazardous planets. The suit is white in color so it can be easily spotted against the backdrop of space, with a thick, hard fabric to protect against cuts and numerous wires connecting from the helmet to a backpack-like oxygen container oh her back, which doubles as a jetpack. It also has a hood and a face-mask for environments that do not require full head protection.

Casually, she'll just wear that same full body suit without all the added hazardous survival gear- basically a white jumpsuit.

Personality - Grace is a very timid despite her line of work as a outlaw. There is no threatening boom to her voice nor any glare she could give, shyly keeping away from people she doesn't know and sticking to those that she does. Thanks to this antisocial behavior, vehicles are her most common audience, their creaks and groans replied with swift repairs and constant customization to keep them up to date. She has a interest in art, and will more then once paint or etch something into the side of a long-served machine if a pilot/crew indirectly permits it. This talent and confidence swiftly fades in the presence of others however, where nervousness takes over.

So far Grace remains attached to Holiday as they are similar to one another, though she more so merely listens to him rather then talking back for an open discussion, there is a feeling of family between the two to keep them friendly towards each other. While not admitting it, she does look up to Holiday in admiration of his confidence and desire to discover.

History - It is unknown where she was born, the details having been forgotten by herself. It was a distant colony, somewhere beyond the reaches of the UGCP for sure, with little protection and a lax governance over the populace that had lived there. Life was peaceful enough despite the UGCP's absence, with many species cooperating as neighbors to each other, finding comfort within the urbanized centers that were so sparsely dotted along the surface.

The Throgg however would not dare leave such a bountiful target alone, and during one morning they had savagely torn apart most of the population centers in search for materials and slaves to take for their future wars. It was during this fighting that Grace had lost her family and the trauma from the event coming to haunt her for the years to come. Fortunately escaping on an evacuation shuttle, the fact that few ever made it off world haunts her to this day.

Since that raid life has been busy, finding her way into the Hellion as a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to the machines, technology and other artificial creations. Despite the title of pirate making her seem as of a dangerous sort, Grace has yet to ever kill another being, quietly staying out of trouble as she has always done.

Equipment
Tools - Simple as the name may be, "Tools" are varied in size and purpose, this can be a small toolbox to everything that is carried with her. A decade of living with little has made her resourceful, so her only strength can be found in her tinkering alone, capable of making the most makeshift of tools into what would seem factory-made equipment with a wrench and some screws. Though it may take time to make the most dangerous of weapons even better, the end result is never disappointing.

Zero G Experience - When the situation calls for floating midst debris or asteroids, there is no lack of experience on Grace's part. With hundreds of hours spent crawling along hulls and repairing breaches, or floating through derelicts with great interest in where they came from. Gravity is a kind of movement which Grace has adapted to with a rapid pace, even if the great depths of space are horrifying to stare into.

Ship - N/A

Activity - See Holiday

Extras - While I take Holiday as my primary character for most action, I'd intend for Grace to be heavily involved as well as an observer/assistant, and in a way have her be more of the 'protagonist' of the two. Her development is much more important and may very well become my focus in this RP, though she'll be slightly more serious in tone.

Welp, made another character, sorry about that, the idea came late to me and I couldn't contain it. My characters will be pretty much together at all times though, maybe, hopefully. It'd make posting easier, but nothing ever goes as planned

[Thread Generator SIN]

@Thread Generator SIN Damn, how did I miss that? Nah, just to make it easier, can i replace it with the Empirion? or if its taken i can make my own ship

@Infamous Empath

Empirion Captain is available.

@Kiwiwiwi
So 2 main characters and a bunch of npc's? That's fine but I'm gonna need full individual cs's for corporal Yamada and private Willis since they aren't npc's.

@TheUnknowableYou can move your cs to the cs section btw.

@VeceeGrace accepted

As you can all tell, there's been some delay. But rest assured the IC is on the way to being complete. I'm almost done. Will wrap it up and post it tomorrow. But a long night of writing has me tired. So I'll see everyone in a few hours. Tags will go out to everyone once the IC is a-go.

[Infamous Empath]

ok @Thread Generator SIN, here is the final version:

Name - Elijah Allan McConnell
Nickname(s): Eli, Allan, Al, Mac, Conn
Alias/codename: Morning Star

Age - 33

Species - Human (probably...mostly...)

Role - Captain of the Empirion

Gender - Male

Appearance -

My Hider

Personality - Known to bend the rules, Elijah Allan McConnell has been called a maverick captain, though he certainly wouldn't call himself that. McConnell is very level-headed and usually makes measured, rational decisions, tactically as well as personally. He is witty and sarcastic, even on the bridge, but never lets his sense of humour or personal issues get in the way of doing the job, at least not often. He is human after all. He is highly intelligent, intuitive, and analytical. He also prefers the company of a couple of friends over his entire crew, earning him a reputation as an introverted loner. However, he loves his crew, and spends as much time with them as possible...just not all at once. Captain McConnell is also perceptive, straight-forward, and often self-deprecating. He is quick to take the blame for something, even when it's not his fault at all, and if he can reasonably cover for one of his soldiers' mistakes or lacks in judgment, he will. As long as it doesn't harm anyone.

History - His military records show that Elijah McConnell was an average kid up until puberty, where he not only grew physically, but also mentally. His high intelligence and natural intuition made him a perfect candidate for officer school in the Coalition. However, soon after he graduated the training academy, he went missing for a couple of months. When he returned, he would not speak of what had happened, and the Coalition military ordered him not to speak of it, essentially classifying and sweeping away any independent investigation. Elijah McConnell quickly rose through the ranks until he became the Tactical Executive Officer on the Rainstorm, under his cousin, Captain Brinehard. The Rainstorm was destroyed and his captain was killed in a battle with the Throgg, making Commander McConnell the acting-captain. Upon his return, he was formerly promoted to Captain and given the command of his first ship, the Hellion. He has one younger brother named Simon. Their parents are dead.

Equipment - Dual plasma pulse pistols (proficiency above average); plasma pulse SMG (proficiency above average); Hardlight blade (proficiency expert); stun grenades (proficiency average).

Ship - I am assuming he can captain the Empirion if it is available. His crew would be no more than a couple hundred, no less than a dozen, mostly rookies since he's a relatively new captain. If possible, the ship has an AI (hologram and android) called Kimmy.

Activity - In a perfect world, I can post every day, but as I have just discovered this week, I am in like 20 RPs, so I'm gonna say once a week to be safe. But most likely every other day or every two days.

Extras - If anyone wants to play his crew in addition to the current main characters you are currently playing, that would be cool. If you want ideas, I would like someone similar to Percy on StarHunter as tech or helm, Jadzia Dax as science or security, someone with a bad bedside manner as the medical officer, and an Alan Rickman type as an XO. (pretty much any crew PCs would be cool actually)

OH! And I would like a hologram named Kimmy. :)

[TheUnknowable]

@Thread Generator SINyeah, I was on my phone so I couldn't. I'm doing that now, though.
