The twelve-mile-long sleeper ship groaned with tension. The massive gravitational pull of the ancient blue dwarf, Fausta, began to pull the nose of the scarred and blackened seed ship away from it's programmed coordinates. As the four-hundred-year-old ship pulled towards the nearby (relatively) star. On every corridorr of ever deck, every service hatch and every last elevator was doused with an angry red light. Following it, a booming alert wailed through the sub-zero temperatures of the non-essential sections of the craft.

No one was awake.


In another twelve years, the craft began to gain speed. Racing towards the unstable sphere of pure and raw energy, the thin and elegant nose of the grand ship began to glow red. The ship's charred panelling pulled away like so much cardboard, but to no avail. The old star could not finish the job in time.

As the craft glided through the weakened corona, the engines faltered.

When it was hit by a solar flare, a slow, agonizing turn brought the hull integrity to twelve percent.

On impact, 400,000,000,000,000 kilos of saved oxygen, synthetic (combustible) cryogenic protein substances, and a large quantity of hydrogen fuel cells were instantly melted. But not without a fight.

A some detonation equivalent to about 3.5 million megaton explosion occured, setting a fatal ripple across the star.


Have you ever seen a star implode? Nasty things. Suck everything they can with them. Greedy bastards, eh?

Boom.


When Fausta imploded, it simultaneously occurs with three more sleeper ships being discovered, somewhere in deep space.

Find them.

Henry Draxz, Chancellor of the the Ceti Territories, woke up to a bright, sunny day. He streched, yawned, and slowly climbed out of bed onto the nice, soft, carpeted floor. The sound of Karais chirping in the backround put him into a very calm mood as he shuffled over to his closet and put on his favorite bathrobe made of Jaerian wool;it was one of the smoothest, softest in existance and would not tear without great force exerted onto it.

He turned around to see if his wife was up yet; she was not, so he proceded downstairs into the main hall. As he walked down, a servant came walking up to him carrying his daily paper, The Ceti Daily, and a glass of Totur juice.
He sat down at his patio table and watched the sun and moon slowly work their ways across the sky. It was one of Ceti's notible features; the sun and the moon were up at the same time, but the moon orbited exactly twice the speed of the sun.

Another perfect day's begining for the Chancellor. He tilted his head back, and slowly drifted off into a sleep...

Folks, you need to roleplay in the roleplay forums. I already moved your first thread here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=409245).

Go read the stickies in the NationStates, International Incidents, and Gameplay (this one) forums, and repost your RP there.

Locking this one instead of moving it so you'll be sure to see this post.
