are my characters stinky or something? it feels like whenever i join a new site, it is so hard to get people to plot with. i even jumped into open threads but idk. maybe i'm losing my touch and my writing is bad. Dx

Anyone out there good at finding image references? I'm trying to compile some good images for the rp areas, species and even the member groups. PM me and let's work together! :'D

The skin is up, just need to fill it in. If anyone knows how to edit css and help me make the board wider, that'd be great too??

LOST IN MERCURY

an original sci fi roleplay




Alright. I saw a few of your wants, and I have been working on making something like this come true! I've finally mulled together some ideas about how exactly it will run and what kinds of things it will have, so now I will share that with you all in an official interest check!

PREMISE

Earth is no more. All its valuable resources have been taken by the strongest forces in the galaxy. It is no longer a pretty blue, water-filled planet but a dry, desolate and nearly abandoned one. Much of humanity has taken to the stars, settling on new locales like the moons of Jupiter, and even further out on small asteroids where Space Pirates and Bounty Hunters make their name. But the Galaxy Police is never too far off to help keep the peace!

The plot starts with the whisperings of a crazed man, claiming he found the "fountain of youth" and cannot die...

GROUPS

Galaxy Police - The largest group among the stars. Their ranks include all sorts of different species and their fleet is immeasurable.
Bounty Hunter - Though "independent" they still work closely with the Galaxy Police to catch criminals and get paid for it.
Space Pirates - Mostly ruthless and unafraid to rock the boat, Space Pirates follow their own code of morals and aren't afraid to butt heads with nearly anyone.
Outlaws - Neither good or bad, Outlaws carve their own path by being unaffiliated with everyone. They're true explorers without much tying them down.
Civilians - Your average folk. They make up a majority of life on most planets. Without them, society might crumble.

RACES

Humans - Just your average bois.
Cyborgs - Humans with just a little bit extra to them. They have at least one cybernetic part on their bodies.
Androids - A restricted race? Maybe? Purely ran off an Artificial Intelligence system, they assist with repairing ships and even running them without the use of an active pilot. They can also perform duties that regular humans can, and won't, do, like maids and housekeepers, etc.
Torama - An ancient race of animal-like creatures. While some are quite humanoid in nature, there are others who retain more mammalian features like fur-covered bodies or animal-like noses.
Lafiel (Name Pending) - Intergalactic elves. They're an ancient race who helped spread their technology throughout the cosmos. They are the leaders of the Galaxy Police, yet they also let humans into their ranks sometimes.
But the universe is infinite... and so many more races are just waiting to pop up. (Members will be able to make their own; see below!)

LOCALES

Blue Haven - A hangout for pirates and outlaws. If you're looking for a bounty, you should probably go there. Galaxy Police have patrol the area outside the atmosphere, but typically they do not touch the asteroid. It could be too dangerous for them, even for a high-ranking official.
Resort Planet (Name Pending) - Once a frozen planet devoid of much else, an asteroid struck the surface many years ago and revealed magma beneath the surface. An eccentric entrepreneur took advantage of this situation and exploited much of the planet's natural hot springs to create a resort. Though the mountains may be snowy, there are geothermal springs everywhere with attendants just waiting to take your money.
Ganymede - One of the largest satellite moons of Jupiter that hosts all sorts of civilization. Much of the moon is covered in water, so many cities float atop and there are plenty of jobs along the docks.
Galaxy Police Academy - Much like Blue Haven, the GP have taken over an asteroid and made it their base of operations. Beautiful, white and pristine with clear fountains and lush green trees, it is the epitome of class and wonder. Many come here to learn all about being part of the Galaxy Police.
Wild Planet (Name Pending) - Home of the Torama. They are split into two sub-groups; the wilder Torama and the more humanoid Torama. Their lands are bountiful with strange fruits and vegetables, their scenery more like a fantasy world than futuristic. They lack many of the modern pieces of architecture, which makes it a destination to go to at least once in your lifetime.
More planets/locales to come!
• You can also make your own destinations in the "elsewhere" board. If multiple people want it to be its own board, we can make that happen for you!

MISC

• This will be hosted on JCINK.
• A lot of my inspiration comes from Outlaw Star, Cowboy Bebop, Tenchi Muyo, and others.
• There are opportunities for members to make their own races! They simply need to be approved before a character can be made using the custom race.
• Members can also register their arsenal; from things like fancy guns to spaceships to special armors. It's mostly for flavor, and if you want to show off where your group of space pirates live (for example!).

If anyone has any questions or suggestions, please reach out to me on Discord! My @ is midnightbloom#8636.

Tbh I know this probably won't get taken but... It's worth a shot? ;-;

Since there are no dark premade themes, I figured I'd request a skin for a sci fi RP I've had in the works... Skins are what always keep me from opening projects lol I'm using a premade now which is fine as a placeholder but ultimately, I'd like a unique skin.

Dark, futuristic, with pops of neon colors. Simple fonts, a basic header image with info below. Instead of a "spotlight" area, I wanted to highlight the "wanted" criminals so a small "wanted" type poster would be cool to see, and then a bigger, coded version for more details as one of the sites templates.

I don't have any images picked out or anything but I know they'll be cyberpunk/spacey and whatnot...

I'd be eternally grateful for anyone that even offers to help out. It can be jcink or proboards, at this point I don't mind much. I know there are pros and cons of both. So yeah... Send a PM or message on discord (midnightbloom#8636) and we can discuss further.

Ty ilu ;-;

I've been (very slowly) working on a space cowboys type site. I remember one a lonnnggg time ago where members were even allowed to make their own races. I've got a skin up and going and just working out the info threads but, I could make this a thing!
Please, please, PLEASE keep us posted on this!!!


Of course! Could even show you what I have so far if you'd like to discuss through discord or pm! :3

  • Legend of Zelda anything tbh, Breath of the Wild?, could definitely get behind an AM, freeform modern setting LoZ project! Epona can be a sleek motorcycle instead of a Horse, stuff like that would be cool while still keeping some traditional stuff like bows and arrows that kind of keep up the vibe of the games. I know HELLA LoZ lore so I could help with this one, even if it's not a modern setting, I just want LoZ RP Maybe canon roles instead of canons though, I'd rather somebody's original character wield the master sword in a canon "Hero of ..." role, for example, rather than someone playing Link, it'd be cooler imo
  • I love, love, LOVE Dragon Ball and I'm kinda sad it doesn't have an intriguing, non-grindy site with maybe levels instead of PL. That way, the system can be more balanced so people can stop clamoring for bigger numbers and focus on the story at hand. Demons, Shinjins, Frieza Race, Namekian, Saiyan, Human, Hybrids, Majins and more would be playable and separate from that would be classes similar to the "Hero/Elite/Berserker" system from Dragon Ball Heroes that give benefits like being immune to feeling damage for two turns out of pure rage like Broly. Combat would be freeform and less stat-based. Been playing Super Dragon Ball Heroes and seen the anime stuff for it along with some Xenoverse 2 stuff, a trapped in a Dragon Ball VRMMORPG site would be cool asf and I'd definitely lend a hand with that, ngl.
  • An AM, freeform faction-based Space site with bounty hunters, canon roles like planetary royalty and the like based on things like Space Dandy or Cowboy Bebop. Need to make me a space cowboy. ;^;
SPACE COWBOYS YES. ive been playing too much outer worlds as of late and  g o d  i love that idea

Sometimes I wonder if my roommate is legitimately trolling or if he is just that... Forgetful. He got "free" tp that is just THE WORST (it's like 1 ply or something) while we still had a Costco size of Quilted Northern in the cabinet.

WITHOUT FAIL, even though telling him MULTIPLE TIMES how terrible that toilet paper is, he will still use it before the nice ones. Like, my dood, my bits are sacred, I don't wanna run SANDPAPER ON THEM.
