[DESC/REC] Mother May I? (F/Open RP)

Thinking of starting a Future Tech RolePlay, open, of course.

Here's the basis for it...

Starts off after a successful liberation of a backwater planet by a small joint coalition lead by the Corporate Empire of Krowemoh, and on the return journey home with a load of both political prisoners from the liberation as well as New Government appointed delegates, the six ships in the task force come under some form of attack/invasion.

Here's some more info. The task force consists of four Krowemohian Colony Class Ships, and two Krowemohian Light Battle Cruisers. The RP will take place on the fourth Colony Ship to start, and maybe move to one of the Light Battle Cruisers. I plan on ending it with *CENSORED*. Sorry, censored so there are no spoilers for the ending.

While most of the task force consists of Krowemohians, there will be a number of other races/nationals etc who took part of it. These will be your characters, obviously. :P They will all, conviently, be on the fourth Colony ship. While obviously military types would be perfer, any character archtype would be accepted (Mechanic, medic, etc etc.)

Tech level is Future Tech, so energy weapons, Mono-filiment weapons (In fact, there is a very deadly Mono-filiment wire trap I have planned for the RP to axe off most of the NPCs), etc will be allowed. If your character has access to it, then he/she can use it in this RP.

Of course, these weapons will be stored in the Armory when not needed (Not in a combat situation), in a personal locker bearing your character's name. The locker is locked by a keypad lock, six number code is needed. Make one up and TG it to me when you post your chara. If you want. I'll write it down in Word, so if you forget, just TG me and I'll TG it back to you.

Your characters, having spent the last few months on the ship prior to the mission, will know the lay out of the Colony ship pretty well, and be at the very least familiar with the other PCs. In fact, I think we'll all be in the same squad probably. It will work like this, for a month at a time, half of the crew on each ship will be up and awake and around, while the other half is in Hypersleep. Our charas are all on Shift B, the half of the crew currently in Hypersleep.

This RP is a Stand Alone RP. It doesn't Has to have any effect on your nation or your nation's relation to my own. If you want, it can.

If enough people show interest, I'll post up the chara template, and my own characters and the important people EVERYONE knows on the ship (The Captain, Chief of Security, etc. etc.). In the mean time, feel free to ask questions here and I'll answer.

I know, I know... The post is all rambling and jumps from here to there. No biggy. :P

Krowemohian Colony Ship.
http://premium1.uploadit.org/BetaVerisonX///Colony_Ship.jpg

Carries 35,000 people/colonists in hypersleep capsules, a total crew of five hundred, can be fully automated with Realians. Includes Mother-Class AI Matrix.


Krowemohian Light Battle Cruiser
http://premium1.uploadit.org/BetaVerisonX///Light_Cruiser.jpg

Can carry 200 people in Hypersleep capsule. A total crew of three hundred, can be fully automated with Realians. Includes Mother-Class AI Matrix.


These are the ships used in the RP.

Vector Industeries AGWS Mech
http://premium1.uploadit.org/BetaVerisonX///AGWS.jpg

Vector Indst. Anti-Gravity Weapons System. Sits a single Mech-Warrior Grade Realian. All fifty AGWS are stored between the two Light Battle Cruisers.

There is no room on the Colony ships for Mechs, due to all the storage being taken up by the ten thousand or so Mk. I Weapons Grade Realians used as the bulk of the strike force. so if your character has a Mech, it HAS to be stored on one of the two cruisers. The two ship names are

"Cleansing Blade,"

and

"Hands of the Faithful"

There is no difference between the two.


Mother-Class AI Matrix

Almost all Krowemohians capital ships have a Mother-Class AI Matrix. The AI Matrix is a semi-self aware hyper intelligent AI, imprinted with the personality of a Second Class Krowemohian Citizens. Usually, it's one 'Processed' citizen to one capital ship, but if a particular citizen has shown to be quite adept in governing the aspects of the ship and lives through many battles, it isn't uncommon for the AI Matrix to be copied to other ships.

Not all Mother-Class AI Matrixes are females, but even if it has a male voice it is still addressed as Mother. (Odd, I know.)

Three of the four colony ships have independent Mother-Class AI Matrixes, while the two Light Cruisers and the 'first' Colony ship all have Mother Class AI Matrixes that have been used in other ships.

Sounds interesting. I'll play a Tanaran Empire military specialist 'on loan' to Krowemoh - say as a military liason officer.

More info to come.

Here's a Teaser for you guys. :P



Klaxon blared in the backgrund, echoing across the halls of the Colony ship. A man, obviously human, one arm bleeding badly, his other holding a pistol, ran up to the Mother Access Point.

Normally, the Mother-Class AI could be accessed from any area of the ship, simply by saying 'Mother,' but in certain cases, access can be restricted to the thirty or so access points scattered around the shp.

These access points are denoted by a large flat viewscreen, dominated entirely by the flag of Krowemoh, which, oddly, looks like an eye.

"Mother!" He screamed at the screen, "Wake the other shift! Confirm!"

There was no response. He clenched his fist. "Mother! Wake the other Shift! Confirm! MOTHER!" He repeated.

He heard a noise behind him, followed by the echoing boom of a Pulse Rifle. His chest expanded outwards and erupted a bloody guyser, spraying blood and chucky bits of flesh onto the Mother Access point. He put a hand to his wound, staring at the blood. "These... DAMN CATS!" He cursed, before he fell, his body going limp and cold...
