Viola Bellucci Age: 46 Nationality: Italian Appearance: Viola has long, dark-colored hair. The angles in her face are sharp and harsh, but her green eyes seem softer - or maybe they softened with age. Personality: Looks like a hardass, but really she's soft and melt-y on the inside. Except when she's yelling at you inches away from your face. Brief Bio: Viola hadn't remained on Earth for very long, and hardly remembers the lush green scenery and crystal clear water sources that used to cover this massive planet. She was one of the very first to work on Hyperion III upon its completion.
Role: Hyperion III Commander
Viola used to take care of all the Hyperion's floors. Though the requests, most of them being frivolous, kept piling up and quickly became a mountain higher and harder to conquer than Everest itself. Fed up, the Commander appointed special officers for each of the floors who m now take care of these requests (Floor 1 and 8's Officers are Florence and Laura respectively). Anything they can't do, like providing foot massaging shoes to every worker - sigh - they'll submit the request to Viola.
Florence HavlΓkovΓ‘
Age: 27 Nationality: Czech Personality Traits: Hella flirty. Talks too much. Will kick you in the noots. Brief Bio: Florence met her longtime friend and co-worker, Laura Biggs, via a virtual online shooter. Thank science for transcontinental teleportation, the two women quickly grew an unbreakable bond. Laura moved to Hyperion when she hopped on the first explorations teams, leaving her friend behind. Just after a few months, Florence decided that even though beauty surrounded her on Earth, it was far less exciting without her best friend.
Florence is still a hardcore gamer and her interest in the coms field was far from surprising. She is extremely agile with anything that has a processor, which these days, is practically everything.
Role/abilities: Communications Officer
Florence is in charge of keeping in contact with exploration teams sent out on missions. She works closely with the pilot, tracing their itinerary and monitoring their progress. She also monitors all travels from and to Hyperion III from any and every destination.
Florence has no extraordinary abilities, that's if you don't count her unstoppable chatterbox.
Kinda funny how a game clearly labeled a kung fu fantasy with a clear chinese style has two very obviously not chinese PCs. But yeah, lets add another chinaman to the party.
You're right, I made some changes to reflect that. I changed the katana for a more traditional chinese weapon as well. Thanks for pointing that out!
Political Standings: Despises the Emperor's ways. Samantha believes a noble government should be democratic, host fair trials to those found guilty of offences and also give back to his people.
Weapons/inventory: A Dao. Apart from water, currency and light snacks, Samantha never carries a great deal of items while traveling.
Fighting Style: Samantha is highly skilled with her sais and has adopted a mix of jujitsu and muay-thai style of fighting during close quarter combat battles with them. She is also proficient in silently dispatching, but often chooses not to kill unless it is absolutely necessary. She will use her Dao mostly for defence.
Personality: Samantha cares a great deal for other's lives and finds much value in humility. Though she is wise, she can sometimes be naive and is quick to believe people's good intentions. She is mostly optimist and good-natured, he smile never fails to warm even the coldest of hearts.
History: Samantha was orphaned at a very young age and hardly remembers anything about her biological parents. Though from her appearance and name Samantha guesses that one of her parents was a westerner - maybe both. She never lingered on the though long enough to do more than wonder haphazardly; her heritage is and will always be from the land of Daokai.
The orphanage in the city of Udai was small, mostly run by the local unemployed women. Samantha wasn't particularly social and was often pegged as shy and introverted. She would get angry but never showed it, having no outlet for it she decided it was easier to stay away from people instead of using them as punching bags, literally.
She rarely joined the other orphans for any activity or gatherings and instead chose to spend most of her time at the neighbouring dojo. She expressed a particular interest in martial arts and fighting. Masimoto, her sensei, sensed a great power within the shy young girl but saw how her anger set her back. Before even showing her anything, they practiced meditation until she had full control of her emotions. Masimoto trained her for years to come and as he had not married, or had any children, her took on a paternal role with Samantha early on. On her 16th birthday, he gifted her a hand-crafter Dao sword, which she still carries with her to this day.
When Masimoto passed away, she left the village and travelled around the continent, finding great peace in helping others. Samantha did everything from bringing thieves to justice to smaller tasks like finding lost horses and bringing them back to their owners.
Name: LΓ‘ra JhonsΓ°ottir Age: 32 Nationality: Icelandic Race: Humanoid Personality traits: Hard worker. Smiles a lot. Beloved leader. Brief Bio: Not much is known on Lara, except that she is the only survivor of the tragedy that struck her team Delta Zulu, on mission codenamed Eagle's Nest three years ago. Since then, she has been training teams for resource mining and analyzing different planetary environments, yet never joining them in their space ventures. Role: Tank Abilities:Her body is a fortress, a brick wall, a titanium door, whatever comparative element you wish to use, it all adds up to: you're gonna get knocked the fuck down. Her brute force is enough to make anyone or anything stop in its tracks. They usually remain dazed from her slow yet powerful hits. Biggs also excels at creating choke points to block any incoming damage and attacks to her teammates. She is a protector, and unlike most, doesn't mind being used as a human muscle shield.
Laura's stamina is a thing of beauty. Not for cardio, though, but she can withstand large amounts of damage and still remain standing.
Her muscle, organ and skin tissue is comprised of of 10x more closely knitted tissue than the normal human body making it hard to penetrate. If damaged, however, regeneration is slow and painful. This ability also makes her skin impenetrable from any airborne toxins, gases and liquids alike. Digestion is similar (though ingesting certain substances come with a price, such as heartburn, indigestion and flu-like symptoms).
Weapons and Equipment:
Pulse shotgun. Cut off short barrel with a single drum that holds the energy cells. It's also mounted with a target seeking blue laser pointer.
In 2897 Resources on earth are scarce, though technology is advanced enough to simulate food and water, the toxicity of these have proven to be too much for the human system to handle. Death tolls are rising, cancer being the common enemy. Those who aren't affected by this (whether it be from a strong immune system, enhanced living organism etc.,) live in space ships situated far from Earth, while the sick remain on a withered and dying Earth, attempting to grow food on a planet who just doesn't want to give back anymore.
Specialized teams are sent out to find habitable planets, but as many dangers lurk interplanetary discovery, such as hostile environments and creatures, it's fairly common for them to come back from their ventures in a body bag. It became a high risk and high reward job; some are called space mercenaries, but many refer to themselves as civilization's last hope. A journey that not many are willing to embark on.
π·ππππππ’
As technology became more advanced, humans grew harshly dependant on it. Tasks that were once arduous and required effort and skill became banal and easily accomplished by most. The Government and authorities, usually referred to as the Elites, had undoubtedly a huge role in shaping this dangerous mentality. Even something as simple as cooking is hardly ever seen anymore as any food could be acquired by a touch of a button. Restaurants were useless, and so were most businesses. Soon enough, only jobs in the technological and medical fields were viable anymore. This created a society divided between the working and ruling class and the ones left with the scraps and often not having the bare necessities to live.
Death tolls came in higher and higher each year, a statistic often overlooked and even underreported to the working class. Though, when the Elites started falling, you can imagine a nation wide panic was quickly installed. No matter what class you were, if your immune system couldn't handle the toxicity, you'd end up sicker than a teenager drinking with their friends for the first time. Even if the technology had surpassed what everyone could imagine, cloning the human body had still been impossible and their dreams of transferring to a younger, healthier host died along with them.
The situation became dire, to the point of no return. The sick remained on earth, having little to no resource to help their cause. The lucky few, not needing Earth's resources to survive, moved to a makeshift home in space; away from the chaos and death, yet stunting their growth as a nation. They too were on survival mode.
The Elites are presumably dead. Some believe, however, like everyone else, they may have had the genetics to survive the toxicity of the environment.
ππ»;π³π:
Humans done fucked up, Earth is useless so let's go suck up the resources off other planets and kick some alien ass to save civilization!
Central Space Station : Hyperion III Description: The space station was constructed 564 years ago for information gathering. As the situation on earth disintegrated over the years, many moved to this station looking for a place to call home. Hyperion III grew in size, its massive circumference and 10 floors now house over 200 000 thousand individuals. The station is circular, the widest ring at the top and the thinnest being at the bottom. Fifteen ship dock surround the station's middle ring. Windows cover the other rings, giving the inhabitants a beautiful view of the milky way which unfortunately, also gives them a front row seat to Earth's slow yet painful curtain call. Location: Milky Way. 378km from the sun. Habitants: 238,589 Orbital velocity and Period: 15km/s. Full rotation takes 2,819 days Currency: Since various items and goods are bought are sold inside the space station, a universal currency was put in place. Since metals are precious resources, Hyperion Chips are completely virtual. Transactions can be made through any personal electronic device. Currency: 1 Hyperion Credit is equivalent to 10 CND, 7,5 USD, 7 EUROS.

Every planet we explore will find its way in here, I made two to start us off.
Status: Unexplored Description: Thillia 5B was found in 2645, through information gathering on this Galaxy. It pinged on their radar, however it remained unexplored because both the lack of information from faulty readings. The following description is unknown to everyone: Its rough terrain is harsh and far from friendly to any ship or vessel wanting to enter its orbit. Rock formations are high and irregular, comprised of a crystal material reflecting light, just as a mirror would. Getting lost and disoriented in this maze-like planet isn't the only danger, however, as guardians protect its resources. With good reason, as the start clusters surround it make for a spectacular view, lighting up the planet with a soft hue of different shades of blues, greens and purples. Location: Andromeda IV, roughly 2,5mly from Milky Way Ressources: Unknown Mean Temperature: Unknown Gravity: Unknown Density: Unknown Diameter: Unknown Surface Pressure: Unknown Rotation: Unknown Daylight: Unknown

Location: Hyperion III exclusively Strengths: They don't need to sleep, eat or drink to maintain health. They do not fear. No living tissue means that they don't get weak or fatigued. Weaknesses: They cannot wander where there is no electrical currents or strong electromagnetic fields. Requires maintenance often. Easily formatted to anyone with decent computer knowledge. Special Abilities: Since they are tightly intertwined with electronic circuits of all sorts, they can download or upload anything from and to their firmware giving them access to an unlimited number of tools and information. However, they do not have personalities and will obey to anyone who is tech savy enough to control one.

Hey guys! I'm a 26-year-old RPer formerly known as Vslayer on here. I roleplayed on the Guild for 2 years I think - back in the old Guild days.
I'm a PC gamer and I literally play anything, but my favorite genres are RPG's, fighting games and first-person shooters.
I worked in Nunavut as a Field Tech for 1 year and a half, now I'm back at the office doing good old 8 to 5. :(
I train in Crossfit, I fucking love chicken and broccoli and I haven't injured myself.[s]Yet.[/s]
