Welcome to Destiny: The Exclusion Zone At the beginning of the timeline, a giant sphere known as the Traveler appeared in our solar system, ushering in an era of great prosperity and advancement for humanity, known as a Golden Age. The Traveler shared its technology and vast knowledge with humanity, whose lifespans tripled as they spread out across the stars of the Milky Way. This did not last forever though, after thousands of years came a period called the Collapse. A purely evil force called The Darkness, which is a great adversary of the Traveler, found the Traveler and with it all of humanity, aiming to wipe us out. Annihilated and demoralized by The Darkness, the last vestiges of mankind retreated to Earth, where the Traveler made its last stand, sacrificing itself to save all those who remained. The Traveler still remains, silent and dormant, but still powerful enough to shelter one last location named The City, the last remaining area where humans can live. The City has come under repeated attacks over the years by alien species, but has always survived. The Traveler has created a race of floating robot assistants called Ghosts. They have been resurrecting fallen individuals drawn from the ranks of Humans, Exo (robots created during the Golden Age) and Awoken (a race born in the Collapse) to become Guardians. The Ghosts criteria for their selection are elusive, and unknown. As a Guardian, you join the effort to retake the galaxy from the Darkness, to insure the galaxies survival, and the survival of the human race as a whole. The Guardians are humanities and the Travelers last hope, for one day the Traveler may once again awaken and bring upon us a new golden age when the darkness has been ultimately defeated.
This RP will allow Roleplayers to take the place of a Guardian among many of his fellow brothers and sisters while confronting all of the challenges these elites soldiers must face. The player will be forced to deal with hard choices, life or death situations, intense combat, aliens and robots that will stop at nothing till the human race is extinct, survival situations that include severe weather, perhaps even each other and whatever else the darkness can send our way. Our characters are currently at The Tower, doing their own activities such as upgrading weapons, fixing gear, buying new equipment, looking over their ship, talking to others, or even having lunch in the small garden area at the back of the event grounds. In a short amount of time though, they will be receiving a message from The Speaker himself.
