[OOC] Void of the Stars II: Return to the Stars [Sci-Fi] [Always Accepting]

[Keyguyperson]

Everyone I have an announcement to make.

Void of the Stars has been going on for two years now, and over that time we have accumulated over 400 pages of writing, and too many words for wordcounter.net to count. We've created ridiculous species, done stupid and funny things, had a bunch of serious storylines, and dropped billions of anvils. We built a community, though only one or two of you remember the original roleplay in 2012. You know where I'm going with this.

The backstory to our universe is rich, so rich that it drives off other players with it's detail. I even question the integrity of the setting now, it's getting hard to keep the whole mythology of the world together just due to the sheer detail of it. There are a few of us who believe that it is time to end the epic story that is Void of the Stars, and there are probably some who would fight that idea with everything they have. I disagree with both.

VotS is getting old, and it's time is coming closer and closer, but I refuse to leave this great roleplay with a cliffhanger. The story of VotS will be completed, once and for all. It will get the ending it deserves. I will take storyline ideas from everyone, but not all will be used. This will be the end of VotS, I want everyone to do their best to give this roleplay the best ending we can. That is all.

An effort to create an ending is pointless semantics, if we're ending it just cut it off where we aree, easier for all.

SENTIMENTAL VALUE

Meh, maybe you're right. I still want some closure.

Key on steam pls now

Pointless, maybe, but it would help tie some things up. I am pained to see that VotS will be ending, but a new start would be good.

My recommendation for an ending that concludes in unity is something that threatens the entire fate of our races at the hand at one super-powerful race, one that even Chaos would realize that it needs to fight off. Maybe something that wants to trigger a doomsday weapon (A la the Halo Rings), or some kind of virulent and cancerous entity that attacks worlds and grows, like the Reapers.

Or maybe something completely original and unheard of, who knows.

[Sukui]

Or the secret to deityhood has been found, making many people become like Faust and Chaos Gods and the like.

Then, over a fight questioning these immense powers, battles go from simple galactic unrest to an absurdly cosmic scale. Eventually their powers go into mayhem and rips apart reality itself, wiping both gods and mortal men alike.

I just wish the other RP i've been inactive for weeks now goes into its Season 3 when this ends.

[darkwolf687]

Well, the Collective is going to join the UU and try and take over this universe before heading off into the multiverse to continue to spread the greater good, I suppose.

Looks like we are turning the MWG into a battleground for the UUs

I like both of these, but I flipped a coin (heads was Sukui's idea, tails was Alpha's idea). It landed on tails. Seriously, I'm not just trying to cover up the fact that I like Alpha's more, I really did flip a coin on this.

Any objections?

[darkwolf687]

Heh, I'm still bailing on the universe. you kiddie races can look after yourselves for once rofl. If you die though, I'm coming back for ye planets :3

[Keyguyperson]

As for the new roleplay, It'll be similar to the very first VotS. No universal backstory, just what the players create. The last time that was tried we ended up with this sprawling epic (That spans over 2,000 book pages, as roleplaying pages are about twice as large). I think it's a good choice.

[darkwolf687]

Hear hear. I believe I shall lay the collective to rest... To produce a new enemy...

Edit: Speaking of which, who will be staying for the new RP?

[MrFoxNews]

Count me in

I'm down as long as I can keep Sazkarjhia. I've developed it so much and I've been rather down-to-earth with my empire compared to others so I thought it'd be okay.

[darkwolf687]

[null123]
