Author Topic: The Wreck of the USC Affection - Text Roleplay  (Read 20571 times)

That would be great if someone could draw a ship for this.


The year is March 22, 2654. The United Space Corporation class A cruiser, dubbed the USC Affection, has it's maiden voyage from Earth to Orangus. The journey would take about 3 months of very quick travel. But on May 5th, 2654, four of the six cores go unresponsive from unknown means. Most of the ship's primary functions, the AI, the distress radio, and the propulsion system, have gone offline. The ship is now doomed to float into space until help arrives. 7 months later, no help has arrived yet. The food supply was starting to diminish, and the oxygen levels were getting lower. The only thing the captain could do, was land the ship on the nearby planet, unknown to the human race. The captain turned on the backup thrusters, but these were near useless for actually getting anywhere far, and the ship made a descent towards the strange planet. The captain prayed that there was oxygen and food on this planet, and he pulled the brake flaps up as he drew nearer to the ground. All across the ship, there were screams of terror. The captain shouted, "BRACE". on the loudspeaker, and the ship impacted the ground so hard that every function was knocked offline. But everyone was safe, except for the captain himself. He suffered lacerations on his head, along with a concussion. He died shortly after, but was not forgotten.

Now, you will assume the role of the crew on the ship, and help them survive on this alien planet. There were rules scratched onto the side of the Affection, and this is what it read:

1. Don't be an starfish, you will be put on the blacklist.
2. Don't just kill people without reason, unless you talk to that person about it.
3. Try to be realistic. Most people have suffered cuts and bruises, some even broken bones from the impact.
4. There IS an armory, but you need a green level card. But since there is no power, good luck getting in there. Don't start with weapons like a laser Ak-47.
5. This is an alien planet, you don't know ANYTHING about it. You must do everything you can to survive.

"I guess this is the law of the land for now.", you think to yourself, walking away from it.

I'll work on this some more, but would you want to play this, anyone? I love space/sci-fi stuff, but I don't really want to do a space combat thing.

And could some of you space nuts (comr4de, qwepir, tingalz) help me out with the spaceship rooms and names?

oh god lol

i knew that date was familiar!

but i didn't know it was yours, changing.

Day 1 since crash on planet...


I don't know what happened or how it happened I just know that I was talking to Captain Jane Wilson when I heard a high pitched ringing and the alarm went off but then something landed on me.I woke up to blood and shreded metal everywhere.

John:The forget...

I stare around the room and see what used to be the captain torn to pieces spread everywhere along with some other comrades.I make an attempt to get up but I end up falling through the floor and I black out again.

I awoke to the sound of "Just one second" followed by fizzes and such.I get up and grab my helmet still wondering how this happened but the more important thing is that I get help and find any other survivors.


???:John,help!

John:?

I heard someone scream help. I don't know where it came from, but I rushed down the dark hallway to the voice. I couldn't tell who it was, but one of the air monitors fell onto his legs, probably shattering them. I couldn't lift the large object, and he was yelping in pain. There was nothing I could do right now, and I told him to stay put while I find help.

Status and location



*enter dialogue and stuff here*

I'm not trying to be nit-picky, but
The journey would take about 3 months of near speed of light travel.
That's only like a fourth of a lightyear traveled overall. To put that in perspective, the closest star to us is about 4 lightyears away.
Just pointing this out because I'm a nerd like that
