[OoC; First FT thread. Decided to join the stage.]

The damaged Dreadwolf-Class frigate emerged from ethereal space via a long unused Etherport, quickly falling into a delicate orbit above the wild planet. What was left of the defense systems turned to the Etherport, looking for pursuers, but none came through.
The frigate had been sent as the futuristic equivalent as a message in a bottle. It had been designed to travel through unexplored space, broadcasting a message looking for other sentient beings. However, the frigate was quickly discovered with anti-imperial mercenaries, who promptly began attacking it in hopes of delaying, if not stopping, what they viewed as a foolish move of expanding the empire.

After a couple days the limited repair systems had put the frigate into good enough shape to leave through the Etherport. A single probe was sent out to scan for any remaining anti-imperials, and soon the frigate was back to broadcasting the message through open space, in hopes of finding a next door neighbor for the Imperial Federation of Heirosoloa.

Why do you have to use point 1 font? specially for ops, at least for my computer for some reason it makes it nearly impossible to read without copying it into a word editor.

The Walter (http://z13.invisionfree.com/Chazakain_Storefront/index.php?showtopic=30) orbited around the Delta quadrant largest wormhole, serving as a temporary commutation network hub as the damage was repaired to the extranet after a sudden solar flare in the area had burnt out all electronics in the extranet hubs previously orbiting the wormhole.

Greetings fellow sentient(s), we are the Fiduses and Diuses Federation. Resistance is futile, power down and prepare to be assimilated. Joking of course, we welcome you to this quadrant and wish to know what you are doing in this part of space? Is your government looking for trade or conquest? Friends or enemies? Was it in Knowledge or Ignorance that brought you before this? Does your race practice the true way and worship the Ancients or are you ignorant of this too?
