Somewhere, in the deep recessess of space, a strange planet has just appeared. Alike to Venus in size, it has one moon and is about 90% swamp. It's atmosphere is about 90% nitrogen throught the entire planet and average tempature is around 90 degrees fahrenheit(Or 32 degress celsius for the scientists).

What's strange is...there was no planet there yeasterday. And yet, there it is. It revolves around no sun, and yet it has day and night cycles and warmth. Yes, a mystery planet indeed.

The moon is barren, although closer inspection of the surface reveals ruins of some sort of city, centuries old. Spires replace blocky buildings and the entire area is coated with some unknown substance. Black is the prevaling color.

And on this planet, life can be found. Advanced it is not, only recently have the inhabitants controlled fire. Many diverese forms can be found: Giant sharks, 40 foot super crocs, acid spitting lizards and much more. Intelligent life is broken up into 5 groups:

From the center of the planet a strange frequency escapes the atmosphere, drawing in ships of all kinds: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.foundus.com/jani/gnomes/images/Goblin.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.foundus.com/jani/gnomes/gnofoes.htm&h=440&w=300&sz=14&tbnid=ZUKC6Y1Cz_QJ:&tbnh=123&tbnw=83&hl=en&start=12&prev=/images%3Fq%3DDark%2Bgnome%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D(Just listen to the music, pay no attention to whats on the page.)

Now your ship has heard the music. The planet no doubt has many resources, and perhaps more trophies then you can fathom. Is your crew man enough to land? And what will you encounter on this mystery planet? The only way to tell is to take a step on the mystery planet..

OOC: This rp will be like those good old space adventures. Just have a random ship from your empire land and explore the place. Do what you wish on the planet, but be careful. COME PREPARED!
