The M.R.S. Genesis

[Delthion]

  This is a Sci-fi RP made Rusvul and I. I came up with the basic format, and he did everything else.

 So, the beasts (including the now reformed vermin) of the Mossflower Republic have developed light travel and a Hyperspatial Dimension Drive (or HSDD for short). The very first ship equipped with this, and it has been christened the M.R.S. Genesis, a few years previously an Ark-ship (a large city-ship) had been sent up through a series of nuclear explosions, and was propelled through stable thrusters. Somehow the food was ruined through the journey and the vermin with the more violent thoughts fought the more peaceful creatures of the ark-ship. They landed on a planet that could support life, the evil vermin had advanced more quickly and the communication array has gone dark, the last received message had been; "Help! The-" That concluded their distress call. The Genesis has a mission to go to the planet and see if there are any survivors or if the vermin have some alien aid that allowed them to massacre the goodbeasts.

 The HSDD has been developed to stages 1-3: Stage 1 cuts a 6-month flight by eight days.
Stage 2 cuts a 6-month journey by 20 days. Stage three cuts a 6-month journey by 50 days. Before going into the HSD one would have to cut power to both the weapons and shields, and it would take about 4 minutes to charge the drive and then you would literally fade into a higher dimension and proceed from there. Even though you fade into a different dimension it is still close enough to where ships in our dimension can harm the ship.

 The handheld weapons and ship weapons are ion, or Radion, or Proton. THe handheld weapons can be either pistols or rifles, they both have the same stats, Radion is the most powerful but it takes a five seconds to charge, when you press the trigger there is a whine and then after it gets to a rather high pitch it will fire. Ion is the weakest but they will fire instantly, Proton, it a mix of both, it takes two seconds to charge and will do more damage than a ion weapon. The ship weapons have the same basic statistics as the handheld ones, but it doubles the number of seconds to charge, and double the damage. Ion Pulses (the ship will probably have four, two banks set into each side.) Radion Cannons, and Proton Beams.

Would you by any chance need a high ranking government diplomat forced upon you by the government and your superior officers.  I think some thing like that would add some flavor to the RP and a bit of inside tension. My character would have high authority given to her by the government but not to much military experience. 

[Rusvul]

...Hi, T'pol in season one of ENT...

[Faiyloe]

Nah she is more or a glorified baby sister than a diplomat. (As you can tell I don't like ENT) I was thinking of any of the other episodes with more emotionally "irrational" characters.    So do I get the Character?

[Izeroth]

 That's up to Delthion, I think. I think it would be funny if your character only thinks he knows everything, rather than actually being very knowledgeable. He could constantly remind the soldiers of how they should show the govt more respect, and just generally irritate them.

[Delthion]

Izeroth, accepted.

Faiy, possibly, could you post what you're thinking of and then we'll make a decision?

[LT Sandpaw]

Hey this sounds great, I'm in.

Just say so if you don't want him to have the Scrambler Grenades, Also is everyone going to be onboard the Genesis?

Since you seem to have forgotten a 'Gender' field, I'll specify that Richard is male and Lee is female. I'd appreciate if you could specify/clarify the uncertain fields on my characters when you are able.

[Delthion]

I knew I forgot something!

Rus, accepted but perhaps not cause unconsciousness. Faiy, that's good, she'll probably be just under me, she has authority to give orders but can be countermanded by myself and my first officer, but it is rarely done.

LT also accepted but there are only Lieutenant's or Lieutenant Cmmdr., the Scrambler grenades are fine as long as they don't destroy computers.

And yes we are all on the Genesis.

[Faiyloe]

Great that sounds good  That is what I had in mind as far as rank goes.  Could you PM me anything that you have already established about the government. 

[Rusvul]

Okay. Scrambling of synaptic signals could potentially also cause confusion or something...
