NGL I haven’t roleplayed in years but I still log in every so often to see if any friends from the old days hit me up. It’s nice to see that every once in a while

OOC is up!
Here it is folks!

@ErosSense@Queen Arya@LC@Theyra

You can place sheets in the character tab and then expect a PM from me.

@ChronicleMan@Skwint

If you're still with us, continue taking your time with your CS. If you have any questions I'm here.
Stellar Horizon: The Echo Protocol


Two hundred years ago humanity lived on a singular planet known as (Prime) Earth. Humanity would have their first encounter with an alien then; a microbe brought by a meteor that destroyed an entire city and began poisoning the air. Nations came together, knowing that they would have to work together or all die. Ship-construction for space-exploration began, with the construction of FTL (Faster-Than-Light) technology being developed as well. Once the first five vessels were assembled the greatest minds on Earth were sent aboard with the mission of colonizing planets suitable for human life, and terraforming planets that weren’t. The mission was an ultimate success, and with newfound research and technology, was able to cure humanity and save Prime Earth. Humans now serve as a powerhouse within the galaxy, despite being one of the youngest species to exist. This brings us here, to the modern day:

The crew of the Stellar Horizon, a state-of-the-art exploration vessel, is tasked with investigating a strange anomaly detected deep within the uncharted regions of space. This anomaly, known only as “The Echo,” is a mysterious phenomenon that has baffled scientists and stargazers for decades. It emits inexplicable signals, seemingly a distress call, originating from a region previously thought to be devoid of life and technological presence.

The Stellar Horizon’s mission is simple: Travel to “The Echo’s” coordinates, investigate the source, and report findings.

Q&A


Posting Expectations?: I’m not a hard-ass on this as everyone has lives. I’m looking for committed players who don’t mind a slow-burn-esque roleplay. I currently work four days in a row, ten hours, with other life commitments so I understand if writing can’t be a top priority. Collaborations between players are heavily encouraged here, and those take time. As long as we’re moving at a healthy rate, I have no problems as I prefer quality over quantity. Once a week may be a minimum if we’re moving the story along, but once again, I’m not a hard-ass.

Can I Die?: In this game, anything is possible. I’m not looking for this to be a slaughter-fest, but this is a deep-space cosmic horror exploration game. Actions have consequences, and that’s what makes it a fun and interesting narrative.

Humans Only?: Sadly, yes. I considered allowing alien races, but for the narrative set, I think humans or majority humans works best for now. ExoGenesis is an Earth based company with the motto, "Seeding the Future, Evolving Humanity Beyond the Stars." after all. I’m not above allowing an exception, however, but it would have to be very convincing and well-written. (Telepath is fine)

Discord? Here.

Your Q&A didn’t answer my question!: Feel free to ask here or PM me. Otherwise, just use common sense. We’ve all RPed before so no need to state the obvious no godmodding, breaking site rules, etc.

Character Sheet


Once again, my CS isn't pretty. Feel free to customize at will, as long as the necessary information is provided.



@ErosSense@ChronicleMan@Skwint@Theyra

If you use it, I've made a discord for the group. Not a requirement to join, but it is a faster way to get in touch with me if need be.
@Theyra Apologies for the late response. Yes, that's fine. You have full creative freedom to create whatever backstory you like. Space is vast, and humans are colonized on a multitude of planets both apart of Earth as well as independent. However, if you would like more Lore regarding certain factions hinted at in the OP (IEF: Interstellar Exploration Federation, ExoGenesis) to help brainstorm, then I can happily provide it.
@LC Once again, looking great! Whenever you and @Skwint come to a resolution, I'll dm you the extra stuff
(the .308 revolver genuinely made me laugh out loud)

@Theyra Not too late at all! Arya and LC are the only two with solidified spots at the moment as they were directly invited. Feel free to fill out for a spot or if you'd like, go for an alternative role. Here are some alternatives to choose from, or we can work together to create a role closest to what you're already interested in.

@Skwint someone via discord expressed interest in both science and security, so feel free to brainstorm on either or as well!

@Queen Arya Once again, great CS.

@ChronicleMan Sounds good, lmk if you need anything
@ErosSense Pretty great start so far, I'm loving the backstory.

Race you can place human, as Telepathic abilities can emerge regardless of age. It's possible to be human and then find out you're a telepath later in life. Traits can be revised later, yes, as this section is meant for rough drafts and brainstorming. Don't be afraid to push the notion either, you can definitely have someone lie so good even a telepath has trouble telling the difference. If you want to brainstorm more or need other trait ideas, we can discuss via PM whenever you'd like.

Equipment wise is really anything you'd like to list, a picture of wife and daughter, a regular pistol, etc. minor things but not the end all be all of what you have on you.

edit: Mouthwashing was great and refreshing, so you know exactly the vibes I'm going for.
Hello Everyone,

This is an idea I’ve had circling in my brain for a while, a character-driven story about a ragtag crew exploring space for a company known as ExoGenesis. Think of shows like Firefly and Babylon 5, down to games like Mouthwashing and Stellaris (Yes, this is where I got the name).

Unbeknownst to everyone (or publicly if you so choose), the crew are made up of people who have done horrible things or made career-ending mistakes in their pasts. ExoGenesis, for unknown reasons, have decided to overlook such things in order to recruit them for an exploration mission.

(This game will begin with everyone preparing to leave home and boarding the Stellar Horizon. The mission is contracted for a year and a half, with ExoGenesis being able to extend that time up to two and a half years) (Everyone will be given individual missions via DM upon acceptance as well)
(The beginning will be heavily character-driven encouraging collaborations and characters getting to know one another, before any action kicks in) (Pre-established relations are acceptable as well)

Premise:

The crew of the Stellar Horizon, a state-of-the-art exploration vessel, is tasked with investigating a strange anomaly detected deep within the uncharted regions of space. This anomaly, known only as “The Echo,” is a mysterious phenomenon that has baffled scientists and stargazers for decades. It emits inexplicable signals, seemingly a distress call, originating from a region previously thought to be devoid of life and technological presence.

The Stellar Horizon’s mission is simple: Travel to “The Echo’s” coordinates, investigate the source, and report findings.

Crew Roles:

I’m looking for four to five players to fill these starting roles. If more players show interest, I’m willing to open up more slots and work together to find suitable roles.

However, being a Telepath is acceptable. These powers are a recent emergence within humans and therefore classified as a different race (More on this to come).

Not enough Lore to fully say I’m interested!: This is understandable. I made this to throw the concept out there before I typed everything in full-detail. If there’s anything you need to know Lore wise, feel free to ask and I’ll give a quick summary.

Your Q&A didn’t answer my question!: Feel free to ask here or PM me.

Here is a CS with an example to encourage brainstorming. Lord knows my CS are not pretty, so feel free to use any CS template as long as the necessary information is provided.
