It's finally here! The Out-of Character thread! 


@Wiggle @Rainzen @Heisenberg @Duke the Impossible @magicalpride @Cuppa Magic @Misuteri Kenshi @Finalshine23 @CommodoreOlaf @Lady Arcana


I'm still doing some heavy construction here, so bear with me while I get things up and running. I'm recuperating after 50+ hours working three day weekend which I hope will explain my lack of attention online. This is also my first hosted project so I'm figuring things out as I go....


First and foremost, thank you all for expressing your interest! There were some good questions brought up in the idea thread that I will address given time. Give me your questions and I will answer them! xD  A couple of you have started making characters. I'm going to add two things to the accepting process and both things involve sending me a PM: 


1. I would like an example of your writing. The minimum post length is two very reasonable sized paragraphs of acceptable grammar and spelling. When you submit your character in the Character Creation thread please also send me a personal message containing a piece to example your current work of writing. 


2. This goes along with character creation. Along with an example text in your PM to me, include also at least one fear that your character will have at least at the start of the roleplay, and a reason as to why they have it. Not required: you also have the option to include any information you would like to keep "secret" from the rest of the crew or anything of the like. Again, secrets are not required but you have the option to do so!


3. Cyborgs. In this universe there is a huge discrimination against people with mechanical implantations. A lot of the taboo stems from cyborg's association with criminal activity, underground fighting rings, people severing their own flesh and blood in favor of cybernetic limbs simply for nothing more than personal gain. Though the technology is not new the topic is still highly controversial. It is because of the taboo that people keep their enhancements hidden and do not talk about them, this was something all people of the age grew up with and that mind of thinking is not easily shirked. If your character is to have cybernetic parts there must be a reason either why the need it or why they got it, and whether they have them at all. Of course, characters can choose whether or not they publicize any cybernetic enhancements--you can disclose this in the PM if you do not wish to reveal this to your crewmates. 


4. I'll be adding more info on the other Nations of Earth sooner than later and if you so choose in the future you would like your character to grow up there I am okay with that. Keep in mind that to all be apart of the crew for their voyage they were all hand selected and put together into squads years prior to train so there will still be opportunities for character to have preexisting bonds and relationships with each other. Once your character has been approved you can take to either discussion thread--or even pms if there is something specific you wish to carry out, I always encourage dynamics--to make plans!


That is all I have for now, friends! Have fun creating your characters! Keep an eye out for updates over the next coming days to the Gallery, etc for more information about the new formed powers of Earth, the Seven Storms, more reference for the ship, and so on!

Some announcements!


For those of you who have created your characters, great job with all aspects! I look forward to roleplaying with all of you and seeing your characters develop! The In-Character will start Wednesday September 13th! The Monarch's Interior post is pretty much finished, I might add more info over time. I'm currently working on making a post about Androids/tech and the Maps/history.


If you are still interested in participating in the roleplay but have not created a character yet, please contact me by PM or in this thread whether you are active or not. If I haven't received word in any shape or form before Sunday September 18th, you will be uninvited from the roleplay. After September 18th I will open up the option of creating second characters for those interested. You may also have the option of creating Android characters too. 
 
Righto, can't wait. If there's people who want to discuss character relationships I would love to hear from them.
 
Hey I'm sorry it took me so long to get my act together but do you mind if I make a character? I shouldn't have a problem getting a CS and writing sample by Sunday 
 
Apologies for the delay in posting! My schedule has been rather busy as of late, but I will post as soon as possible.
 
Unless Magic Pocket says otherwise, I would say feel free, especially since you are conversing with only one person at the moment.
 
Post at your own speed. I don't mind!


I am very sorry guys, I worked a whole weeks worth of hours in three days this weekend. It usually takes me a day to recover. (Also for some reason I wasn't getting notifications from this at all) I promise to get this show on the road, put up some new character information, and more universe info.


Those of you who have posted--awesome! If you have a character that has been approved I would like you to make your first post by the end of the week. By then we should gain some momentum and have the ship sailing!!
 
My brain just being active on the idea of the setting.


Our mission is an exploration mission right? What happens if they find a habitable planet? They do research and send a green light to Earth to indicate a colony ship can be sent?
 
Hey, I am so so sorry. I was out for two weeks with a family emergency everything is settled now and I finally have time to myself and ready to get back in the throw of things. I will keep this going as long as you guys want to write! Thank you guys for your patience!


@Goaty Goat @Cuppa Magic @Rainzen @magicalpride


@Goaty That's a good idea, we can definitely use that. I think the first planet they land on will be a disappointment. They will also learn the hard way later down the road that they were not the only exploration ships to be sent out ;)  And that there are members of their own crew they didn't know *winkwinkwinkwink*


So very roughly: The first planet they land on will be a bust. Second, a goldielock planet. Third, inhabited but uninhabitable. And we will go from there. 


And and I really can't apologize enough guys. Very very sorry!!
 
That and I have a couple days off here so I'll have plenty of time here for you guys and to catch up on my other roleplays. 
 
@Goaty Goat hopefully it's just a fall thing. Lots of people starting college and new jobs and stuff. I know I was out for a couple weeks trying ot get everything settled. 


If she doesn't come back in a few days I can edit the end of Becks reply and have her come to you so that we have someone to interact with.
 
Once I finish up my post--its coming to me incredibly slow--we can work out auxiliary characters if any of you are interested. That or I can bunny her character in the background until something.....happens....to them. 
 
@Rainzen The medical officer coming over to talk with the second engineer whilst he's half submerged in an engine block, sounds cool


@MagicPocket if you could bunny @magicalpride's character until she returns or her character dies that would be great since I've been waiting for weeks to do anything xD
 
@Goaty Goat If lily left to get their tools then Jack should be open for conversation anyway, besides, aren't they all really close because they did a bunch of training together or something?
 
@Rainzen I know and I like the idea, but just imagine that Jack comes over to chat with Beck whilst she is operating someone just because it seems like their deal is to converse whilst they work. xD Although just calling him on his communicator could also work with that xD

I can definitely do that. The post is on my computer at home, give me an hour or two and I'll have it up. Sorry!

That I can work with!
