A zombie shooting RP based on House of the Dead/Resident Evil,but set somewhere in the future.

In a remote star system at the Citrus galaxy's galactic edge,on a space station used as a by miners to harvest gases from the atmosphere of a gas giant planet as well as a base for biological weapons station used by a South-American Cartel defence contractor for biological weapons research,contact has been lost for the past few weeks,with the sudden termination of its wormhole connecting it to Epsilon Eridau,resulting in a massive loss of financial data and 3 trillion dollars in loss to the Temasek Holdings megacorporation that ran the wormhole terminal,a small group of freelancers have been contracted by Greenpeace Nature Society with the mission to investigate the station,scouting it out before government,military and security from the GLC(government-linked corporations) with interests involved,as well as militant labour rights groups,humanist groups and anti-bio weapon interest groups have a chance to tamper with any possible evidence incriminating the South-American Cartel,which has been alleged to have violated human rights,testing their bio weapons on prisoners at the research station.


Currently on the converted freighter the Wild Nature,they are decelerating into the system after having deactivated their Warp Drive and re-entered Euclidean space,with the intent of using their freighters stealth systems(jus in case) to enter the system undetected and investigate what is happening,with 3 supply ships not returning once dispatched to the system.

End of Intro

Setting:Your species can be baseline humans,enhanced humans(genetic,cybernetic,bionics,mutants,mystical,magical,etc.),artificial lifeforms,xenomorphs(aliens),etc.Be creative,but realistic.Can have energy and ballistic weapons.Technology is able to manipulate up to planck level,access different dimensions,manipulate quantum strings,create multiverses,but this is only for extremely high level entities,none of which will be in this roleplay.

Abilities:nothing overpowering.something you would see in Marvel Comics or DC for that matter.Nothing on the level of Superman or having the ability to destroy a planet please.

Story:Follow realistic physics.It doesn't need to totally follow real-life physics,but 90%.unless the character has some minor reality-warping powers.
This is more of a story than a harcore roleplay,so relax.
