July 31st, 2098. Earth is suffering from a massive overpopulation crisis. It has been, in fact, for over 100 years. Population on Earth is a staggering 15 billion. Earth can barely support human life, and human life can barely live off of Earth. Earth is being pushed too hard, and unless a solution can be found, Earth will likely give under the stress and be unable to support life. Solutions in the past have been attempted, such as colonies on the moon and Mars, but they barely dent the population, and they still need resources from Earth. Many world leaders met on this day to discuss a solution to the problem, and thus Project A.R.E.C.O.B. was born.
The world leaders realized humans couldn't live nearly long enough, let alone stand the loneliness, to make the several-lightyear travels of space. They couldn't in survive places without oxygen, nitrogen, or an ozone layer without expensive equipment, and were just all-around frail. Humans couldn't be the ones to go out and find a new home for themselves; that is why they made machines that would do it for them. Project A.R.E.C.O.B., or Android Research and Evaluation of Celestial Objects and Bodies, introduced a whole new kind of robot.
Androids had been made before, but not like this. These androids think and felt like humans, but they could be shot into space under incredible g-forces humans could never survive and not even damage a part, their battery can go for hundreds of years without recharge in their low power state, and almost indefinitely when hooked into a charger, they don't require oxygen or air pressure in their ship, radiation has no effect on them, and even if they are almost completely annihilated, their conscience can be recovered and put into a new body from their Essential Functions Chip, which is designed to be near indestructible. If anything had a chance of surviving in space, it was them. They all also had specialties. Some androids were built to protect the other androids from native animal life, others were designed to study them. Some androids were pilots, some were engineers, still others were physicists.
Their mission is to evaluate planets, going from star system to star system, finding ones feasible for human life. When they find one, and are sure it's safe, they place a beacon on it programmed with all the necessary information of the planet, and move onto the next. Their mission is projected to last twenty-thousand years.
You will play the role of one of these androids on the mission to find new, feasible world. The roleplay will be based around the exploration of the worlds, the interactions of the androids, and the challenges some of the planets may pose. It will have a stat system, dice roles (After all, this is in the Dice section,) and turn-based combat.
