Futuristic Journey to Old Earth (Doctor Needed)

[Shannon Trevor]

EDIT: We've lost a few players recently and are keen to secure some new crew, particularly a Doctor.


"Old Earth got used up. We sucked it dry and then ran for the stars."

"There's still humans down there. Scratching out some kind of living. I won't call it humanity though."

"Pirates, slavers and scavengers. Picking the flesh off every last thing they can. Would be bad enough, if that was the only thing you'll find down there. I've heard talks of ghouls and mutants. Aye, and worse..."

Grissom City, Terra Una, 2296

"I have a job for you, Major."

Rene swirled the offered whiskey around in her glass and took a sip, savouring the sensation as the liquid warmed the back of his throat. "It's not Major anymore, Mister Belmore. I'm just a civilian now."

"A single mission, very risky," Belmore continued, ignoring Rene's correction. "I don't expect all of you to survive. Those that do, never need to work another day in their life." Rene eased back in her chair and listened. Evidently Belmore wanted to give her his full sales pitch. "I have a ship purpose built for the job and dossiers for a potential crew. Of course, the personnel who will accompany you on this mission is entirely at your own discretion."

"I'd say it sounds to good to be true," replied Rene.

There was no warmth behind Belmore's thin smile. "I was expecting you to ask me what the job was rather than offer doubt."

Rene took another taste of whiskey. "Alright. I'll bite. What's the job?"

"I want you to go to Earth."


Your character has recently been contacted by Rene Vassuer. The former soldier has heard about your abilities and is keen to bring you on board for an expedition. If interested, the crew will be meeting on Helios station before embarking on a dangeroud journey back to the home world.

If interested, please leave a message along with a brief character description of who you wish to play.

I would be particularly interested in a pilot, engineer, doctor and scout but all roles will be considered.

I want this to be a reasonably detailed and literate rp and will be asking for a writing sample before character approval.

Any questions, please feel free to ask.

Many thanks,

Shannon

Certainly. PM me your ideas and who you want to play

 

[Shannon Trevor]

Updated with roles filled so far.

 

[DapperCat]

Have room for 2 more players? :3

Absolutely

Yay! The character I'd like to play is Kayin, an Engineer that likes to collect old Earth 'geeky' things like comic books. She is an inventor in her free time. Preferably I'd like her to be a Cyborg, but she can also be human, I don't mind at all! If she's a Cyborg I would love to include rather worn, somewhat rusty equipment, so no shiny superpower things. But that's up to you what you'd allow! She's bossy, talkative, a know-it-all and accepting (except for things she deems irresponsible.)

Hello! I would be the plus one in this case. I would like to have the role of scout, if possible.
My character would be Malik Coste by name. Free-spirited and carefree, he's an easygoing sort and not all too smart in the traditional sense. He is a coward does, however possess a very keen sense for danger, is quick to flee very fast on his feet and has a good sense of direction. He is terrible at making financial decisions willing to take risks, a terribly obnoxious flirt, but despite his many faults strengths, he has proven to have the capacity to operate and even excel under pressure.

 

[Equusheart]

Hmmm.... I might be interested if there's room for one more. I have a character idea for either a pilot, a engineer, or a navigator depending on which isn't taken or better suited.

 

[DapperCat]

*Rocks back and forth in anticipation!* I haven't done a forum RP in a long time and so far all RPnation RPs I've signed up for never lifted to even start so shush I'm excited ahhh. ;_;

 

[Shannon Trevor]

Quite curious as to what's still available for this story? I'm quite new, but I have a keen interest in the doctor role, if it's open.

It is

 

[Specialist]

I'm actually very excited; we've grown tremendously for this RP!

 

[DapperCat]

Iwanttostartnowaaaaah EXCITE.

Bump for the Doctor

 

[rbk4373]

If you’re still looking I’m interested in playing the doctor! I’m about to go take an exam, but I’ll write up a character description after.

 

[DapperCat]

We are looking!

 

[rbk4373]

So I think for the doctor I want to play a character named Maura Casey. She’s warm hearted and well meaning, but a little awkward when it comes to having a casual conversation with someone. She tends to hide behind her intellect. Her thoughts and actions are carefully calculated. She’s level headed under pressure and while she can handle taking a risk, she’s not reckless in any sense of the word. She tends to talk allowed to herself, especially when she’s trying to concentrate.

I would be interested in joining this as well

We have a Doctor. Who are you thinking of playing?

 

[Viper Actual]

Which roles are yet to be filled?

 

[Squee]

I'm thinking I'll be Security- aka muscle/an extra gun. I'm working on his personality and background and whatnot.

 

[Squee]

Or Tactical Specialist. That's got a nice ring to it too.

 

[Shannon Trevor]

Recruitment Bump!

 

[Epiphany]

We've got three good players in this already (a soldier, a pilot and an ex-enforcer) but definitely room for more!

 

[CkSmalling]

How many scouts are in the mission? I would like to be one. Although having two seems like a good idea
