The year is 2533. Civilizations have risen and fallen in these times. Now, it is the time of a civilization rising to perfection. No longer is man mystified by space. The stars and space have become the new oceans to explore. New worlds have been found and terraformed into different civilizations to expand man’s journey to conquer the universe. Most ships that fly into space are either transport or cargo ships. It has been known that there are pirate ships out to overthrow said ships. It also has been known that the people on transported ships have been turned into slaves and the cargo that usually held medicine to the smaller civilizations have vanished into thin air. A group called The Company has been known to keep space travel to a minimum safety. The Company acts like the Army, the Government, and everything in between. Most people don’t know what the Company does, but people do not question it.
Some people have found out what they do. They are found and they are killed. A small band of folks on the ship,
Javelin are running for their lives because of what the Company is doing. Not wanting to go and try to save the world, The Company heard about what they know and has ordered everything and everyone to go after them. Half of the crew of the
Javelin don’t know why they are casted out because they have done nothing wrong. The Company has figured this out and has branded the
Javelin as “outcasts” and “traitors” to the Utopian society. On the run, the shipmates of the
Javelin learn to survive in the depths of space. Getting along with each other and hoping for the best.
The
Javelin has caused an uneasiness within The Company. The Company sent out bounty hunters to track the ship and to wipe their existence from memory. Bounty Hunters are crude and sadistic people who live in the coldness of space. They are good at what they do. Give them a picture and last known whereabouts, bounty hunters will be known to find who they are looking for in about two weeks. Less if it is a large group of people. Bounty Hunters go for the biggest pot. If someone gives them a random sum, they will do it; unless someone else gives them a larger sum for their trouble. Not only Bounty Hunters are tracking the crew, but Bounty Hunters are slowly killing each other off so they are the ones to get the prize.
The
USS Nautilus is run by Captain Jules “Nemo” Winchester, also known as Petty Officer’s father. The Nautilus is a crew that is under strict orders of The Company and will be helping the Bounty Hunters to bring in the traitors to The Company. However, since one of the
Javelin crew is the daughter of the famed Captain Winchester, The Company had specifically given this task to their Captain to see how he would react. If he succeeds, then he will be able to rise even further in the ranks of The Company. Should he fall, the rest of his family will be killed. Be wary of the Bounty Hunters that come aboard the
Nautilus, for they might also have a bounty on your head as well.
The choice is now yours. Will you help the ample crew of the
Javelin of the
Nautilus? Or will you hunt them down and keep the unruly rebels quiet to keep you afloat? Choose wisely.

However, because of certain events that have risen, he has started to question his loyalty and what matters most to him.

Rules:
- No godmodding, etc
- Post more than one sentence, etc
-
Please try not to post all at once. Remember last time? It became a mess. Keep it slow and steady. Plot will come around, chickees, don’t you worry. - I am in charge of The Company. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I shall answer in either in the thread or in PM. The RP is going to be lenient than a lot of the others ones here on the forum because this one was just based off of an idea in the Insanity Thread.
- Have fun.
- I’m allowing people to have at least two characters if they desire. They can be on the same team or on different teams. Just as long as I know who is who, s’all good. Plot’s kinda dumb, but meh. It’s all about running around and making sure that we can stop whatever.

Where we last left off:
Before the forum went BOOM, the Javelin crew was heading to the planet, Torngasoak because for repairs and supplies since the last planet visit didn’t work out as well. While the Javelin crew headed to Torngasoak, the Nautilus crew head pass the Caroon mines. There, Captain Winchester was infected with the disease that infected the townsfolk that still live there. After escaping, they found themselves on the planet Marco, where the infectious disease turned the Captain into a hideous monster, but he was able to revert back after fighting with a couple of amble crewmates. After getting subdued, the Nautilus crew wonders what to do with their Captain. Meanwhile, while all this is happening, many bounty hunters are making their way toward Torngasoak to try and get the Javelin crew and get the bounty that the Company offered for their heads.
For people who played before. I need your profiles once again. New players fill out the template and let me know if you want to be apart of the Javelin, Nautilus, or bounty hunters. Yay.
