@Jeyma Good thing you found us.
I'm working on the CS already, but I'll need time to think. I never rush characters, even on such simple character sheets. If you make a bad character you're stuck with it

Why is the sun like bread? It rises in the yeast, and sets in the waist. Haha! Isn't that so cute? Join my RP or more puns will come.

What's the difference between a Hollywood actor and a piece of driftwood? One is Justin Timberlake. The other is timber, just in a lake. Hahathisiswhati'mdoinginsteadofwriting

Hey, folks: I've just kicked off an RP, a fantasy where you can worldbuild as much as you can adventure. So if, like me, you like worldbuilding nearly as much as writing, check out Pilgrim's Caravan

That moment when losing a character in a rougelike makes you want to shed tears. No backup. It's gone.

Current RP I want you to join: roleplayerguild.com/topics/191461-car…
Hey y'all. I've been at this for about 10 years, and I've played a lot of kinds of RP. I like fantasy and sci-fi the most, just because they give me the most to play around with, but I'm cool with almost anything. I just like writing.

I definitely want to join this. I've been waiting for an RP like this for a long while.
What sort of tech level do you think would be appropriate? There will be other nations and planets with higher or lower levels, but for us as a starting group?
In a sci-fi RP, I tend to see a lot of diversity. Some people will surely want to go for a pistol-toting, rifle-slinging merc who uses more modern/"realistic" weapons (guns or mass-drivers), while others will want to fire around plasma beams or employ personal shields or build A.I. from scratch (the more traditional sci-fi). The best "tech level" would be one that allows both.
For balance: perhaps plasma/energy is more damaging in-and-of itself, but mass-drivers (guns) are significantly more effective vs. shields? Just an idea.
EDIT: Ship speed and specifics doesn't really matter. Our ship(s) moves whatever speed we need it to move for the progression of the story. But there should be enough travel time between missions that our characters can speak and interact. Again, I'm assuming we get a ship.
EDIT 2: Universal translators may be useful as a convenience. We need both crewmates and clients from vastly different species to understand eachother flawlessly and immediately.
Unless, of course, someone wants to create a character that's a translation expert.
Because we're badass mercenaries, our military tech should be slightly "above average" compared to the rest of the galaxy.
Oh, forgot to mention, we will be needing specific roles such as quartermaster, paymaster, surgeon, scout etc. So if you do have ideas coinciding with these archtypes, feel free to keep them in mind or develop them.
Is engineer possible?
I want engineer.
My actual question is thus; should we begin as an established and roughly uniform company/guild/lokhos/group (although 'national' sidearms would be fine to keep), or would you prefer a more mish-mash group of hardened (or not hardened) killers-for-hire? The latter probably going to be put together before leaving Taenarum.
Mish-mash mercenaries!
Unlike my rambling opinion on technology up there, I don't really have a justification for this one. I just like the idea of a mish-mash smash.
I'm really interested in this RP. I've been having some trouble keeping interest with RPs lately, since the last big one I was in died when I was totally invested, but I think I'm ready to get "back in the game."
This sounds like it'll be really fun.
EDIT:
I assume we'll have a spaceship. And if so, I call dibs on the techie role (engineer / glorified I.T. guy). Someone has to keep the ship running and grumble angrily about machines all day.
I have two character ideas: one is just a human who happens to be a technical savant, and the other is a (in my opinion) unique take on A.I. Which one I go with just depends on the other characters being introduced and whether my ideas are accepted.

Just checking in to let you know I'm here!
Doing this again, unless I've gotten drowned out in the past 3 days. I've been busy with school and tests.
Tomorrow, if it isn't too late, I'll get caught up and everything.
Just checking in to let you know I'm here!
Quick round of notifications from folks I've not heard from in a bit. Just checking if y'all are still interested.
@Cute Bumber@Hank@Jeyma@Polybius
Still here. Still working. Just haven't been online in a day or two because I've been busy and distracted.
Working on a character. Mind if I PM you my ideas before I spend all my time only to create someone that could possibly be rejected?
Assuming we are all accepted and all interest remains, I believe the current population more than fulfills your 2-3 "Guildies" requirement?
Let me pose a question, then:
What sort of writing, exactly, are you looking for?
In that same vein, what sort of characters should we aim for?
