View Full Version : Sci Fi Text Game Here For You
c20H25N3o 11-04-04, 09:31 AM Hi,
I am a big fan of sci-fi which is why I happed upon these forums in the first place.
I enjoy creative writing very much and have always tried to find those games which require a little more imagination than Monopoly.
I am prepared to be the Games Master, taking you into the world of fantasy, where you can pilot ships across the Universe, trading and fighting, seeking honour and glory, making decisions as you see fit. The consequences of your actions however may not always be as you expected. The Games Master will decide what happens once your decisions have been made and that will provide you with a new set of circumstances to face. Money or credits will be issued by the Games Master as he sees fit. You may team up or go solo in your missions. You will encounter enemies, you may turn on other players as you see fit or there may be enemies that only the Games Master can bring into the game which you will need to defeat in order to survive. Your only one directive is to survive.
If you would like to play this please state your characteristics and your chosen name in the following format. You can make anything up you like so if you want to be a 9 billion year old alien with one eye - be my guest :)

Life Form Type (Please be descriptive) :
Mother Planet and Approximation to Earth (if not Earth):
Ship Type / Capabilities (No more than 200 words) :

Hoping you will join me :)

Combine 11-22-04, 11:36 AM c20 can you please start it
Zero Mass 11-22-04, 06:26 PM Everybody,
Take a chill pill. Making a story, throwing together disparate players and characters, and doing so in a few days is difficult. Let the man work.
In the mean time why doesn't everybody do a quick character bio?
Name: Xander Xanadu
Age: 5 earth Years (About 30)
Occupation: Pirate Leader
Skills and Hobbies: Advanced Usage of Logic, Natural Born Leader, Excellent Fighter Pilot, Can handle a sword, laser pistol, and swashbuckel well, Enjoys 13 century Swirling Dirvishes poetry and Alien Women, Enjoys looting, adventuring, looting, space surfing, pillaging, and getting...loot.
History: Born on Earth as Gleepglop Galloisian Gerpes, Xander was raised for a year in public schools of the planet successfully getting his doctorate by age three,. After that he joined the Space Navy until he decided that he could do more (and become risch) as a pirate. He made a ship out of the derelicts of past Naval battles and in doing so became an Outlaw (Illegal Scavanging). So he gathered the oddest, baddest, and most certainly stupidest pirates in the galaxy to his ship and tricked them into following his lead by pretending to be the great mythological piratical space-scum Xander Xanadu.
-ZERO MASS
Dreamwalker 11-22-04, 06:39 PM Ok, at least it is something to pass the time with...
Name: Dreamwalker (Real name unknown)
Age: Unknown
Occupation: Freelancer, I do nearly everything for money.
History: Born on earth, but lived in space since he stole an Air Force intastellar fighter. Since then, drifting through sleazy mining stations, pirate hideouts and private company installations. Multiple biotechnological enhancements, including bionic eyes, brain-integrated neural networks and chips, muscle enhancement to counter the effects of living in space for the most time.
No files on this person, no longer chased by the Air Force since the lawcases have been dropped due to timespan.
Skills and Hobbies: Great piloting skills, partly because of enhancements, weapon and fighting skills, learned in nearly every was of fighting, in zero gravity and on planets. For the most part, reasonable and logical behaviour paired with foresight, strategy and consideration. At least while fighting, otherwise, crazy, brutal and excessive behaviour. Enjoys living and everything that gives an adrenalin rush.
