The Story So Far.....
The time: The far future. The place: Earth. The planet has evolved much beyond what it was known as. Creatures from myths and legend have been reborn, and some species have evolved, even some humans. But, in general, the Earth is a peaceful, tranquil place. Until the "Cataclysm".
The "Cataclysm" was when the sun began to die. The world's leading scientists at the time could not figure out what was happening. But, they knew it was inevitable. So, the planet pooled their resources and created large cruiser ships, the size of large cities, and sent them out in all directions. It is in this final act of hope, that the races of planet Earth try to live on, in other solar systems.
You were part of the cruiser ship "Destiny", and after years of travel, "Destiny" happens across an uncharted system. But, the system is not uninhabited. If fact, it is teeming with intelligent life, who have created their own society, and the system itself has a dark secret.
What happen to Sol? What is the ancient secret of these people? What does this new place have in store? Find out all these things and more when you become one of the:

Races and Planets Shards:A Race of humanoids, very similar in size and shape to humans. The one glaring difference is that they have spikes adoring their bodies. Common places are on the elbows and knees, but some have them on their wrists, ankles, chest, some even have spikes in place of hair. Along with these spikes come the sharp personality of the Shards. They are quick witted, easily angered, and very prone to violence. Shards are common in underworld scenarios, and tend to be leaders of crime. Their home planet is Bacciaria. Daught:Pronounced "doubt", these creatures are most similar to turtles. They have a shell covering their torso, and sometimes have small horns atop their heads. If Shards are criminals, the Daught are the police. If there is a high ranking officer, he is most likely a Daught. Daught are honor bound, civil, and above all, kind. They will not hesitate to help out someone in need. Their strength knows no equal. Their homeworld is Buol. Podphy:Standing at a meager average of three feet tall, Podphy are, well, cute. They have soft fur covering their bodies, large Mickey Mouse style ears, and a prehensile tail. They come in a range of colors, from blues to blacks to greens to purples. They are also very nice, but they are very economical. They are the traders of the galaxy. With their good charisma and cute quirks, they can worm their way out of most situations. And if things turn sour, they can always use their magic to tip the tides. Their homeworld is Anquias. Fornear:The best way to physically describe the Fonear is elf-like. Long, thin limbs accompanied with long, pointy ears. Because of their magical heritage however, their hair ranges from shades of blue, green, and orange, but other colors have been seen. The Fonear think of themselves as high and mighty, and in some cases they are. They usually hold government positions, so Fornear do not lean towards good or evil. They are the most adept magic users in the galaxy, and in this manner they get what they want. Their place of birth is also Anquias. Gith le' Rel:The slightly less intelligent species, the Gith le'Rel have a wide range of types. They are considered by many to be the "bug people", since they have a tough exoskeleton and tend to have either extra arms, legs, or a tail with pincer or something similar at its end. The Gith le'Rel(Gith for short) are not good with technology, and for that reason live mostly in the wilds. Because of their mouth composure, they have a hard time speaking the basic language (referred to as Common), emphasizing consonants and under emphasizing vowels. In terms of abilities, the Gith are the fastest species in the galaxy. Their home planet is Juraika. Juraika:The closest planet to the sun, Juraika is a sparsely populated jungle planet. There is not much order, but there is not much crime either. Many wild creatures and animals live exclusively on this planet and no where else in the galaxy, making their pelts rare and valuable. Bacciaria:Named after Baccus, the god of wine, Bacciaria is world of amusement. Parks, casinos, bright lights and late nights, thats the Bacciarian way. But there is a shady underbelly to this happy world. Many of the leaders of organized crime live here. Galedia:The third closest planet to the sun, Galedia is the picture of mediocrity. Its not too hot, not too cold, the only thing that is not here is wild lands. The planet is packed with people, making it the most populated world in the galaxy. Many of the government facilities and places of business, are on this technology driven world. Anquias:Something you might derive from its name, Anquias is a planet of water. From the population on Galedia and Bacciaria, there is a substantial water shortage. So, large teleportation devices were created to move large masses of drinking water to the other planets. The planet is also know for its "Lost Civilization" under the waves, which is where, some people speculate, the Podphy and the Fornear get their magical abilities. Buol:The homeworld of the Daught, Buol is entirely covered in ice and snow, mostly because of its distance from the sun. You might think that Boul would be a deserted planet, but there are many precious minerals and metals just beneath Buol's icy surface. Because of this, there is a prominent mining community here, and it can get a little cutthroat sometimes.

Rules on Races and Powers You have a choice between the races I have listed (you will start the game with meeting the rest of the party) or you can create your own race. The only rule for this is if you are making a half breed, it is half whatever, half human. No half vampire, half angel, half demon, half turtle, quarter aardvark stuff. Its the only rule for races. As far as powers go, I'm limiting it because I want the party to be balanced, with everyone within similar power levels. You can have 1 main power, and 1 sub power. Main powers are activated and have varied effects (shape metal, telekinesis) while sub powers are passive (improved regeneration, enhanced strength) Also, I'm helping you round out your character with skills. You choose 2 Major(M) skills and 3 Minor (m) skills. Skill examples are pilot, bluff, diplomacy, craft, profession, survival, balance, swordplay, energy guns. If you think of a good skill idea, put it in your profile. If I don't like it, I'll let you know.

Leveling System To give my players a reason to come back, and to set my game apart from others, I have implemented a basic leveling system. Simply put, I will award active players exp on every Saturday that there was activity in the rp. I give out exp based on good rping, interesting posts (not necessarily long ones) and general impressive grasp of English. The exp per week ranges from 1 to 3. Now, what do you do with exp? You make your character better! Here is the breakdown costs. 2 exp=Minor skill 3 exp=Major skill (must upgrade minor version) 5 exp=Sub power 7 exp=Main power After exp is handed out, if you want to upgrade your character, send me the exp you are spending ( I will keep a record of your exp) and the abilities you want to buy. If I approve, I will update your profile with the new information. Its that simple! If there are any questions about the system, or if you have anything you think would be cool to add, feel free to pm me with your juicy, delicious brain stuffs. I will gladly devour it.
