Hello out there, I am presently toying with the idea of starting a sci-fi exploration RP and am trying to start it with as many options for the players to get cash (be motivated) with as many potential goals as possible.
Considering I almost forgot PIRACY of all possible pursuits I figure there are plenty of other ideas I'm overlooking. Here's a short but what I think is a pretty comprehensive list of things a space crew could be doing to make a buck, but if you have any other ideas, let me know and I'll add it to the list!!
Bounties/Assassinations
Trading/Arms deals/Exotics
Black market/contraband/SMUGGLING
Transporting Passengers/VIPs/Prisoners
Capturing exotic creatures (either physically or holographically)
Mining (asteroids or planet surfaces)
Policing starlanes
Running space experiments/Research
Observing space anomalies
Scavenging wrecked space hulks/Salvage of abandoned colonies/stations/cities?
Cataloging new planets (for colonizing or mining)
Piracy
Exploring/scouting
Collecting information, news, rumors/samples
Delivering Mail/parcels.
Supply Runs/maintenance
Slavery/refugees/penal deliveries/Pioneers/Pilgrims
Neutral parties for strained diplomacy/dealings (NEGOTIATION)
Saving ecosystems/biomes/settlers from natural disasters
Archaeological work
Recovering Ancient Tech
First contact specialists
Hacking/Espionage
Search and Rescue
Medical Assistance
Criminal Investigation
Asset Protection
Personal Missions & Cultural Voyages
Geocaching
Settling Debts & Repossession
Space Adventure Tourism
Neutral Zone Shenanigans
Interstellar Gambling/Party ships
Thank you for taking a couple of minutes to help out if you have an idea!!! I appreciate it immensely!
