tldr: I'm making a Spamfic.
So, as Fall comes upon us I am starting to have more free time. This will give me a chance to do some things on the Guild that I have been putting off for a while, one of these is my Spamfic.
With RPG 101's permission, I will be making a prequel to his Spam Sector series. I have spent the past year and a half thinking about this story (I.e.: Spam in space), and quite a bit of the story and characters have already been developed, it's just a matter of putting everything down in writing. This may take months or a full year, but I intend to finish this as a book-sized story. There will be Easter-eggs for oldfags, the occasional bit of humor, and maybe even a few breaks of the 4th wall. But on the whole, this will be a serious story told with an emphasis on drama and a questioning of morality. I will most likely change usernames into something I can use as a serious character name, but you will still be able to tell who is who (I'm looking at you Elly).
All that being said, I need some help from those of you willing to contribute. Before I ask my questions however, please note that I do already have most of the story planned out and many of the characters already have roles in the plot and unique personalities. I'm not going to ask what you want in my spamfic, it's my story and will remain that way until it's done. The questions I ask and the answers I get will simply add to my thought process and possibly be added into the story.
The Questions:
-What would you want your character to be named in a serious story? Something like hashing your username into a serious name, or a name you go by instead of your username (i.e.: TripMyHop (Doivid/David))
-List any names for Starships you would want to use. Again, the more serious ones are preferred, and the more answers I get for this one the better.
-If you were in charge of a ship or a fleet in a space battle, what strategies would you use?
-Do you have any ideas for names of planets? These could either be based off of spam culture, or from your own mind.
I truly appreciate anyone who answers here, and you can expect the prelude to be up in a matter of days.
Thank you.
