Futuristic Flotila - Lost in The Void: A Survival Space Opera

TheoremAlpha

Furiously Calm
Plot





The Earth burns below their feet, a firestorm of Plasma consuming it in its whole. They came, no one ever quite knew who they were or where they came from. But we refused... they wanted a nation of slaves and we gave them a race of rebels. They wanted to defile the Earth and strip it of its resources and so they did... And with the great pestilence that is humanity gone, our home is now nothing more than a husk.


The only people still alive were those lucky enough to be aboard the few ships that survived the seven week long conflict, mostly old war and trade ships found in the deep reserves of times long past, all modern ships with advanced hyper drives nothing more than hole riddled derelicts falling into their orbits around Sol.


All of them should be dead, but for reasons unknown, the invaders ceased fire once they were satisfied the few remnants left were no threat to them. For the past few days everyone scrounges what they can, and gathers from the ruined colonies and broken space stations any bits of tech and resources not atomized.


They reconcile what is left of humanity in orbit around Sedna, a distant dwarf planet so far the sun is merely a bright star migrating across the sky, not even as bright as a full moon would be.


All responding to a signal from the last Battle Cruiser humanity has. The Gododden.


Hanging in its orbit, the only decision now is whether they try and rebuild their home in a system that no longer has a homeworld once the invaders are done and gone, or seek a great mothership rumored orbiting in the Ort Cloud. Meant to move a million across space, a relic of a time when humans thought they were the only ones with grand dreams of space colonization, abandoned when a full galaxy was discovered and ancient treaties confined them to their system.


If it still orbits in its eternal drive is anyone guess.


But before that, 370,000 make their way to Sedna... All that was left from what was once a powerful nation, never powerful enough....





Premise


Figured I'd try and get a multiperson space opera type thing going. I would hesitate to say that this is a nation building RP, but there will be aspects of it and I would like this to be a highly detailed, narrative driven RP. So when making your characters, complicate the heck out of them.
