Well… I am sure all FT roleplayers here have seen Star Trek: TNG. Yes, I know it’s not quite what it’s fans proclaim it to be. Rather, I am considering having an RP built much like a Trek episode, but involving Allaneans instead of a Federation.

For this, I am going to send out the CSS Western Virginia – an exploration/military corvette with a crew of six – to explore new worlds and look for places for Allanean settlement, etc. etc. It is a small, 30-meter long FTL corvette, so it shouldn’t cause you any problems.

For the RP in question, I would wish you to post here – and we’ll figure out what exactly should happen as the West Virginia encounters your race. The purpose of the RP is mainly to showcase our civilisaitons, and also to show how people – both Allaneans and whoever your race is – deals with various problems. Now, the suggest-a-plot-athon begins!

Well, I'll start by volunteering the Combined Goblin Collective as a nation to be encountered.

The CSS Western Virginia would almost certainly (if they do meet the CGC Goblins) end up either in "Da Outererer Planets" (planets outside the Goblin Nebula) or at EntryGate (marks the only way into the Nebula without dying in various horrible but very entertaining ways).

Cheerio,

This is a really novel idea, and a great way to introduce space based nations to each other! :)

I volunteer the Arcturus system...as for the plot...

How about an ancient ruin deep in a chasm on one for the moons brought to the surface by a mysterious gravity wave.....

But how would it help me meet actual Ur-Quan?

Perhaps it should so happen that Ur-Quan [and possibly Goblin, if Delight agrees] explorers are in the area?

Perhaps the gravity wave disables the ship in some manner, forcing the crew and perhaps an Ur-Quan scout team into the mix together exploring a mysterious lost city...

Or something...

Just an idea :)

I am thinking that perhaps the Ur-Quan are interested in something down there and send a scout crew as well, and as they arrive an argument ensues? [Non-violent, mind you]

Okay that sounds good. In the middle of the argument there's some kind of earthquake or wierd phenomena that traps them there, forcing them to work together to find a way out! :)

I'm interested.

Sounds good to me.

Perhaps have a Goblin "Sientificatory Teem" in the area on a sweep for "Strange Shiny Tings" and they run into the Ur-Quan and Allanean.

Plot ideas sound good

Sounds like a laugh! :)

Sign me up somewhere or anywhere. I dunno how or why, given Xenonians don't often leave their galaxy, but we can think of something, surely?

Could I have my worldship be the source of the distrubance, or pop in?

No problem - but Arcturus is Mr. Death's here stompin' grounds.

As for me - feel free!

This maby a bit lat and maby my spelling is to Bad but i would not mind haveing a part in this :)

By the way "(v)" means add info below wich will be in a "( )"

this is whut I would like to add to it

More or less a Dragon race (v) Thay would have Arms And Wings

(not Big godly ones thay stand 7 feet (v) with out horn(s) or tail)

(thay can be smaller or larger tho up to 10 and down to 4(Dwarf)

as far as whut ther Roll play thay would be a Battle ready race, Honor would be whut every one of them would be after (v) and thay like eating Hot Food-

(lower ranking Members will kill any race alliance Team Ect thats not ther ally be for saying a thing most of the time unles ther in space (v) -

(thay whunt honor ther not stupid thay will not attack a unknow craft unles thay think the beings in it are "Very Stupid")

But If the party leader is not a low ranking member ther may be a atempt for a talk )

like Pigs monkeys apes Ect

as for Weapon and shield(s) tech (if ther are force shields)

Ship Tech:

Weapons: mostly lasers but not cuting laser thes one do 1 of 2 things
A: thay Heat up the target
B: thay Freeze the target

and ther good at whut thay do!
(unlike most lasers that hit a large area not a Small Area)

Shields: Very good over all
Pros
Very Strong Vs large area damge
Nigh Immune Vs Heat Weapons

Con

Weak Vs heavy damage in one small spot

Infantry Tech:
Armor
Lower ranking members use light plate armor next is Heavy plate (v)
(All ther plate armor is Reflective)

Higher ranked members will use light Force shields as well(v)
(opens at the Mouth Right be for that use ther Fire/Ice Breath)
