Flight of the Eatlon- RP plot
The launch was months away, yet Freia Kallea was nervous. Her ambition had taken her to an unprecidented height for female pilots of her era, and no one was about to let her forget it. Her investors were breathing down her neck. Corporate Sector authorities tended to do that when credits were involved.
She held the peice of flimsy in her hand and stared at her signature. She felt as if she'd given herself to the darkside, if all that jargon the Jedi talked about held any truth. They were very mysterious, though she had been educated by one when she was younger. A member of the Agri-corp. She had discovered that not all force sensitives would make it into the Military branch of the Jedi. Many would be given over to aid in public works.
Aparently the council was going to send one on this mission. How they had caught wind of her little journey she wasn't sure but she had hoped to keep as much of this trip a secret as possible. She wanted to be sure there were no other groups out there prepared to race her to the other side of the galaxy. Competition made things dangerous for both sides of the equation.
She casually set down the flimsy and looked at her chrono. Her newly picked crew was set to arrive soon. She moved her attention to the monitor of her data station and brought up the schematics of the ship that lay in the dock below her temporary offices as her mechanics crew worked to install the prototype sensor suite created for this particular flight by the long list of investors.
It's internal mechanics were alien to her. Completely different from the more common variety that she had been trained to use when she was still flying ops for the Galactic Repiublic. Freia sighed heavily.
She had to admit the Eatlon was an amazing ship. Built specifically for deep space travel, the Eatlon had an artists touch to her. Then Freia kindly reminded herself that most of its parts were made by the lowest bidder. It made her hackles rise a touch, though she'd never backed away from a mission as exciting as this. The pay would be considerable too. The earnings of course reflected heavily on the planets they discovered, and explored.
The soft ding of the orator unit in her door caused her to raise her head. Quickly she adjusted her clothes so that she didn't appear too administrative and reminded herself that she was a hotshot pilot with 10 years under her belt. Stifly she stood and took a deep breath. "Enter" she said loud enough for those on the other side of her office door could hear. The door openned with a soft woosh.
<<Details>>
<Positions to fill->
Freia Kallea: The Captain. This position involves close work with the moderator of this RP "PSF", occasional Write ups and more.
Pilot & Co-pilot: This position is best filled by two people who have a good repore with one another and enjoy RPing together as a pilot and his co-pilot are likely to spend a lot of time together in this RP.
Engineer: We need to keep the ship tight. Can you keep a state of the art ship in the sky?
Ground Crew: anywhere from 3-5 soldier types. This can come from any group. Republic Soldiers, and Mercenary/fringe types prefered as these two groups are less likely to murder one another in there sleep.
Droids: 1-2 droid companions are always good, though not necessary.
Jedi: 1-2 Master and Apprentice, or two knights.]
<Goals->
Blaze a trail down the Hydian Way and count yourselves among the intrepid explorers that have brought the galaxy closer together. This RP will run its coarse from the corporate sector all the way past Eriadu. It offers those involved the opportunity to explore planets that are not on the list within the Forums. It also involves first contact with new species native to said planets.
<notes from PSF>
As Moderator of this RP I will act more or less as your GM or DM. I will have a stand back and watch approach to this RP unless it steers way off course of its intended mission, which is to chart the Hydian way, and all planets along it and possibly near it. If you guys decide to take the ship off course
Exploration I'll leave up to the members.
I'll be watching this quietly. If things become too quiet for my tastes I am likely to throw a monkey wrench into things. Ship parts breaking, strange anomolies, and more. Consider me fate, I may smile, or I may frown. Regardless it is likely to make things exciting.
If your interested please feel free to respond here.
