2. Maximum of 3 Active Characters per person. Any more needs approval by a GM
3. Characters can and WILL die, but please ASK somebody before you attempt to kill their character rather then just say "Your guy is dead."
4. Keep it PG-13!! Romance and Lovey-Dovey stuff is fine, as well as the occasional innuendo, but take smut scenes to PM, please. Also, violence is allowed, but please don't rip out a guys entrails and hold them above his head while he slowly dies. We're not monsters (:3)

10. If you got this far, here's a cookie *hands cookie*
11. Please make PvP combat fair. It really sucks when somebody unleashes their ultimate power and freezes the other person's foot to the floor, then proceed to just punch the crap out of their immobile opponent. In addition, GM moves will NOT be allowed inside PvP combat unless approved/announced in a GM event.
12. Enjoy the RP to the best of your ability!![/rules]
~ Previously On Exoria.. ~
The Spaceship Ulysses was attacked by the Enimorg, a group of rouge Androids for hire, on the day of Princess Audra's wedding. A group of heroes consisting of Maarcuu, a Beastman Royal Pilot and his utility droid HK-55, Ana, a cyborg business woman, and Vashando, a warrior with an A.I named "Alice", attempted to rescue the princess and escape to a nearby Galactic League of Interplanetary Prorecion (G.L.I.P.) friendly planet. Instead, the Enimorg captured Audra and shot down the escape pod, which landed on a criminal planet known as Norrux Mirugal. Upon their arrival, the heroes met with Zuzen, a cyborg vigilante, Tal, an orphaned theif living off the streets, Sura and Noki, two mysterious aliens and Oradis, a Queronian with a multiple personality disorder. Unknown, Princess Audra was taken by a crime lord known as Rectja Tyrr, who had a certain something for collecting rare prizes. He made the fair Princess his slave girl and forced her to entertain the gangsters within his palace. There, Audra met two thugs, Æðelþryð and Una, and a robot named FX-83ES-Model Number: 825690, all of whom had personal issues towards Rectja. After establishing themselves on Norrux Mirugal, the heroes were taken in by Zuzen. When Maarcuu was labeled as a potential threat towards Rectja, the gangster put a bounty on the beatman's head, fearing that he had brought G.L.I.P. forces to Norrux Mirugal with him. The heroes knew they required credits to get off the planet, but knew they had none. Soon, they would discover that a massive underground Speeder Racing tournament was being held. The winners would receive a massive credit prize, as well as a starship.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=
Where we last left off on "Norrux Mirugal"...Under City: Level 5 of 7. Currently under the Territorial Control of crime lord, Rectja Tyrr."Maarcuu still believes that the situation at hand is out of control. Maarcuu thinks that as soon as possible, we get out of Norrux Mirugal and send for backup from G.L.I.P." The Beastman explained, his arm crossed and his helmet removed. He still wore the bounty hunter's armour he had stolen from a man who tried to claim his life earlier that day. As it would seem, there was a bounty placed upon the Beastman's fuzzy head by none other then Rectja Tyrr, a revered and feared Borregelian crime lord who owned more then half of the 7 city levels. Apparently, the gangster had discovered that Maarcuu worked for G.L.I.P. and saw him as a threat that needed to be eliminated. Maarcuu couldn't fully grasp the reasoning, but little did he realize the full picture. All he knew was that the gangster wanted him dead for reasons unknown, aside from being associated with G.L.I.P. through the Agerna Royal Pilots League. Rememering the league and Agerna itself, his mind raced back to the events before now.
It was a special day. The day that Princess Audra Strathmore of the planet Agerna was to wed the 6-armed, green skinned, bug-eyed Prince Thall of Raximotoriphalupagorious. The wedding was held aboard King Ridley-Scott II's starcruiser, the USS Ulysses and everything seemed to be going perfectly alright. Then, just before saying "I do", a ear-piercing screech sound began emitting from a half human-half droid being that was slowly paralyzing the passengers. Quickly, the noise was halted by HK-55's electrical work, but then things really began to pick up. The ship was fired upon by a Morg Battleship, which quickly introduced the Enimorg as the culprits behind the attack. The Enimorg, a rouge group of sentient androids who worked as bounty hunters and thugs for hire against the G.L.I.P., had been hired to capture Princess Audra. With much help from two passengers, Vashando Sykes and Ana Cassius, Maarcuu and HK-55 managed to recover the Princess and evacuate the other passengers. However, Audra turned herself into the Enimorg before anybody in the group could stop her. Without anything left to do but evacuate the slowly burning ship, Maarcuu, HK-55, Vash and Ana took the royal escape pod and jettisoned themselves. The trio watched the ship explode, not knowing if Audra had survived. Without warning, the group was suddenly assaulted by the Morg Battleship and were forced to make an emergency landing. Thanks to Maarcuu's flying skills, they managed to land safely, but the escape pod was trashed upon impact.
Through a series of interesting meet ups, conversations and many hours of walking, the trio quickly became a larger group upon their crash landing. Joined by Zuzen, a cyborg vigilante, Tal, an orphaned theif living off the streets, Sura and Noki, two mysterious aliens and Oradis, a Queronian with a multiple personality disorder, Maarcuu and friends found that they were not the only ones who wanted to get off the hunk of shit criminal Haven planet known as "Norrux Mirugal". Many more events followed after they met, such as being taken into Zuzen's apartment rather then live off the streets, gaining the trust of each other, and even chasing down a criminal who was spying on the group. It all seemed like such a blur to Maarcuu, because the entire day seemed to just keep going on and on without ever ending. Thankfully, the lanterns around the under city had changed to a dark blue colour, signalling that night was fast approaching. An extreme sense of exhaustion had overcome the Beastman from the long and tiring day he had gone through. He knew that the others felt the same way as well, but he did his best to stay awake. Besides, the adrenaline from almost being killed moments before really helped him keep his eyes open.
Then, without warning, his thoughts were interrupted as a woman who looked very strange entered the apartment. Zuzen apparently seemed to know her, so that was something.. But he felt somewhat uncomfortable when she turned her attention to Ana. It seemed like they knew each other once long ago, but Maarcuu showed no signs of being interested. Instead, his thoughts drifted off into more personal matters such as his current state of mind. Ever since they landed, he had been concerned. Not entirely for himself, or Ana and Vash, or the others he had learned to call "Partners" and "Friends", but mostly for the Princess. He knew that Audra was more then capable of taking care of herself (in fact, he had personally witnessed her taking down 16 thugs on Yeppu after a conference discussing the spice trading with Agerna was interrupted because they wanted to rob the rich folk), but his mind kept replaying the horrifying image of the Ulysses exploding. He had no idea if the Princess was still onboard, but he prayed she had made it off safely, even if it was with the Enimorg. At least if she was captured, then the chances to save her would be greater then if she was dead. One of the many tasks assigned to Maarcuu as a Royal Pilot was to ensure the safety of the Agerna royal family. He had successfully managed to evacuate the king and his wife from the wreckage.. But he failed to save Audra.
With a look of curiosity, Maarcuu turned his head to Zuzen and leaned against the wall of the apartment. By his side, HK-55 had seemingly been calculating data on the interface that the cyborg vigilante had set up to spy on Norrux Mirugal. The little droid booped and whizzed, shaking back and forth as it apparently discovered something. However, with an extreme lack of people who spoke Mechan-Ese (the language of the robots), the little droid's exclamations seemed to go unnoticed. "Zuzen, does Zuzen know if there is a way to acquire a ship, or some form of transport off of Norrux Mirugal? Preferably something that could be achieved within the time line of a week or so." Maarcuu stated, his choppy Galactic Standard coming out as strangely as it usually did.
~~ Meanwhile, at Rectja's Palace ~~
"Moska pudaa, chowbassa! Panwa oto choppa garbo! Dopo moulee-rah grabbo-pawap machacheesa pago buttmalias? Tee-tocky aaya Audra hugga chugga bugga oh hola ivy abba iggaa utga wana bolla...."
Bring her to me! Provide me with my new dancing girl! What use is there to having slave girls if I do not force them to dance? Bring me Audra and the other girls, then tell the band to start playing... commanded with a wicked smile. The two Raximotoriphalupagorians nodded at their Borregelian master and marched off towards the holding cells where the slave girls were kept. Rectja had taken a certain fondness to his new dancing girl, Princess Audra of Agerna. She was a graceful and seductive dancer, but what pleased him the most was knowing exactly who she was: royalty. Rectja knew that eventually the G.L.I.P. would try to find her and may even track down her location, which was why he ordered the total destruction of the Ulysses and any ships that may have tried to escape. The Enimorg were lethal and knew exactly how to kill every last person aboard the starcruiser. Rectja always preferred hiring the rouge androids as opposed to his goons when it came to jobs like that because he knew the Enimorg wouldn't leave a single trace if evidence behind. The ships that had managed to escape had already been tracked down and were reported "missing" hours ago. The only shuttle remaining untouched was the one belonging to King Ridley-Scott and his Queen, for Rectja dared not to kill royalty. Kidnapping the princess for his own sick desire and pleasure, however, worked better in his mind.
As the palace band began to start up the song, which was a low and smooth beat, the guards brought up at least 7 of the 12 slave girls Rectja owned, including Audra herself. With a look of absolute sick desire, the disgusting Borregelian licked his lips and adjusted himself on the throne he was seated upon. With a wave of his massive, oversized, muscly hand, the group of girls nodded and began to dance, hopefully with Audra along side them. Rectja didn't mind if the girls were used and abused by his palace residents, but Audra was one who he couldn't allow such harm to come to, not that she'd allow it without a fight. He admired her strong will, but knew that he would break her before the week was out. He always did. Whenever his thugs would ask or talk about doing the things they did with the other girls, Rectja would agree. However, the group quickly learned to shut up after asking to do the same things to Audra resulted in a guy being disemboweled before the group by Rectja's "pet". As the girls danced, he grabbed the chain around Audra's neck and yanked it hard, pulling the girl towards him. "Je killya, um pasa doe beeska wumpa. Keel-ee calleya ku kah. Da beesga coo, palyeeya pityee bo tenya go kaka juju hoopa!"
My dear, you seen like you aren't enjoying yourself. Feel free, become enveloped in the rhythm. If you do not dance like I wish for you to, then you can expect a fate worse then your average disobedience beating. Rectja grumbled in his deep booming voice as his rage-filled eyes stared into hers. There was a major sense of intimidation about him. Everything he did was almost petrifying, but that was all part of who he was. When he finished speaking to Audra, his forked, snake-like tongue extended from his lips and gently licked the young woman's cheek in a disturbing way, giving her an idea of what would happen next if she failed to impress him once again with her dance skills.
