Of the four worlds in this system, are there any which have yet to be claimed?

If you want to play a crewmember of any of these ships, feel free to post here or send a PM my way!

[/size]

What types of plots are you interested in playing?
Anything not too out there, really... Case by case determination, so, when in doubt, run it by me and I'll tell you if I'm okay with it.

What types of plots are you not interested in playing?
Rape where it makes no sense.

How often can you reply to any given thread?
Anywhere between 15 minutes and a couple weeks, depending on my muse and how much I have to work with. I've been told I'm a greater RPer, but I know for a fact I'm no miracle worker. I can't do my best work with one-liners, though I certainly won't think less of you for them.

Are you open to RPing over instant messengers? If so, what's the best way to contact you and what times are you generally available?
I'd rather not, but, if I must, please know that my availability varies. I'm not curently sure about what my schedule's gonna look like with me moving here in the next couple weeks, and I'll edit this when I know more.

Are you open to post volleying?
Not really... Too fast-paced for me to give any guarantees.

Anything else?
It is illegal to chuck a moose out of a helicopter in the state of Alaska.


GENERAL OVERVIEW
What are you limits regarding powerplay/godmoding?
I don't care if you don't. I intend to stay away from both, but I usually judge by the other person's limits as far as what's acceptable, with my own in cases where the other person is less strict. I will not, however, tolerate invincible characters (except in cases of temporary or location-based invulnerability, but there are limits to that, too. You have to be vulnerable somewhere.). One more thing: If it's undodgeable, it's blockable. If it's unblockable, it's dodgeable. If it's both, its effects are minor if anything. You can't have both for a devastating attack.

How far can character injuries go?
I prefer being able to react, though it's okay to have the action occur without giving my character the chance to react if it would not be possible for my character to react anyway.

How far can torture go?
Talk to me before hand, and don't go off the path we discuss. I'm serious. Also, ABSOLUTELY NO GRAPHIC RAPE. Fade to black, and don't just use it as a 'break the cutie' thing. If you plan on doing a rape plot, give me reasons why rape is something that needs to be part of it, or at least ironclad reasons why I should allow it. I know one of my characters has raped in the past (and may or may not do so again), but it's not something I plan on playing out. Anything of that nature with him will happen offscreen and to some nameless NPC out on the ass-end of Nowhere, not as part of any actual plot with that character. Fair warning: You'll have an easier time teaching calligraphy to a dog than you will of getting me to agree to a rape plot.

What about character death?
My NPC's? Go ahead, but know that there are consequences. My characters? Not without discussing it with me before hand and getting my explicit permission.

Are you okay with characters being transformed against their will?
Ask first, and discuss a plan for it, then stick to the plan. After getting my permission, of course.

What about healing?
If you can, go for it. Just be aware that my characters have every right to refuse to allow yours to heal them, and/or hate your character for doing so. The fact that your character can heal mine does not mean my character wants to be healed, and, given the tech levels in this RP, it's highly likely that my character has an injury/scar/disability/defect because they have no desire to have it healed.

What are your limits in regards to romantic situations?
I prefer not to do sex, but I'm okay with it. It may take a while for me to post if it gets explicit, though, because I can't use public computers for that sort of thing.

CHARACTER-SPECIFIC
Be reasonable in regards to Eva, please. Is your 5'11" human really going to be able to overpower a 16-foot-tall Draconian much, much stronger than a human on his/her own when attacking head-on from the front and screaming a Leeroy-Jenkins-style battlecry? Just use common sense. Also, rape = no for plots with humans. Aside from the whole thing concerning hotdogs and hallways, it just isn't realistic at all from any standpoint (Fridge Horror warning for Drake's history, BTW. And yes, that was actually an intentional mention of how he is not to be confused with being a good guy in any capacity.). No romance plots with humans, either. She isn't into inter-species anything (other than friendship, I mean), unless you've got a VERY strong justification for it, and it's VERY well-thought-out.

With Captain Morgan, just be aware that there's a reason he earned the loyalty of his crew at 23, and it isn't his good looks. Again, be reasonable, please. Also, he's already lost one arm, so ask before lopping off limbs and such, please. Especially the prosthetic one. And, please, lay all the love and sex on him you want, as long as you're willing to have your character not mind the fact that he's a pirate (and not the not-really-evil Jack Sparrow flavor of pirate, either. His rap sheet's as long as Wilhelm's tail, and that's just the shit he got caught doing.).

Regarding Wilhelm? No healing, please. He's grown quite attached to his prosthetics, and would prefer to keep them. Also, it was irritating enough for him to get used to them in the first place, and he'd rather not have to readjust to flesh-and-blood limbs. Also, like Eva, he's a mountain of muscle, so please do not have a human be easily able to overpower him without a very good reason.

Sarah's dwarfism is incurable. She's also much, much stronger and much, much faster than any human. Also, don't transform her, please. She's already a dwarf, no need to add anything else on top of that. Also, while you're welcome to try courting her, and you may win her heart, i have no intention of her ever being sexually available. Ever. Even if another Draconian dwarf came along. You're welcome to try, but it's not going to happen consensually. Not her kink. As for winning her heart, bear in mind that her species can live well over 2000 years. She's probably not going to get beyond the 'girlfriend/significant other' stage in the amount of time of this RP unless the whole thing started a long time in the past. Expect to be compared to the woman who gave her her name.

You get a movie.

I insert half a peanut-butter sandwich.

__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description Eva is a bit short for a Draconian female, particularly one of the original stock, though she is still almost three times taller than most humans. She is dragonlike in appearance, though she is bipedal, rather than quadrupedal, and bears humanoid characteristics. Her tail is twice the length of the rest of her body, and is tipped by a sharp, poisonous blade in the shape of a Fleur-de-Lis. Overall, her body is one of a rather creepy beauty, one which hints at danger, yet still maintains a certain elegance, particularly in the smoothness of the lines and subtle muscularity, though she is far from being physically perfect, being of a species meant for defensive combat rather than one meant for looks alone.

Personality
Eva, despite being a military single-ship pilot, dislikes small spaces. Her main reason for choosing her current career was simply to satisfy her mother’s wishes, who she respects and loves above all others (though not in a mother complex sort of manner.).  Despite her dislike for small spaces, she finds piloting a single-ship to be quite enjoyable, mainly because she simply enjoys the feeling of flying through space (Space Core, perhaps?). Eva tends to be impulsive and brash when not focused on a task, often seeming to let curiosity and impish impulses get the better of her, but she knows how to knuckle down and fly right when the chips are down. Or when she's pushed the envelope too far and knows it.

Magic/Abilities (if any of these is a problem, I'd be happy to change them...)
1: Telepathy: No. This is NOT mind-reading. This is sending her thoughts to others, mostly of her own kind, but she can send to anyone she wishes provided they can receive (basically, if they want to hear her and don’t have something blocking their mind, such as psychic barriers and the like. Tinfoil won’t work, but wanting to ignore her will.). She can also receive from anyone capable of sending, but only if they are sending to her (either directly, or through sending to ‘anyone in range’). The maximum effective range is 400 meters, though it can be extended by piggy-backing it on radio transmissions (though, if the transmission can’t get through, the telepathy fails, too, in this method), phone calls, or, in extreme cases and with reduced clarity, electrical wires.

2: Armorlike skin: All Draconians have skin (scales, really) that protect them like armor. While the protection isn’t perfect, it is good and is especially effective against heat, energy, and electrical weapons, though at a cost of effectiveness against swords and other bladed/piercing weapons of materials with a hardness of 8 (Moh’s scale) or greater.

3: Superior bone structure: All Draconians have skeletons of such durability that broken bones caused by falls and other accidents are extremely rare. This does not, however, mean said bones are impenetrable.

4: Shadow Conversion: Perhaps the most dangerous of Draconian abilities, this ability can be used in many ways, both for illusions and for actual damage. It is an ability found only in the Original Stock, and is one lost by interbreeding with the newer breed. It allows Draconians to bring darkness to life, imbuing it with magical energies in order to create illusions, or using magic to convert it into matter for physical attacks. This power only works if the area it is used in is darker than it is light (so, for example, it’s not usable in a well-lit room, but shining a flashlight in the darkness of a moonless night does nothing to negate it.).

5: Localized low-force singularities: Draconians of the Original Stock are capable of creating small, relatively weak gravitational fields in order to move things around. Such fields are invisible, causing this ability to often be mistaken for telekinesis, and is insufficient for killing in and of itself. It also has a weight limit of 25 kilograms, meaning it can’t be used to throw people around.

6: Poison/disease immunity: Draconians are able to quickly destroy any poison which takes more than 30 seconds to kill them, including their own (which is only deadly after multiple doses in a short time, and, in such a case, takes weeks, even months to kill the victim.). Their immune systems are also very swift to respond, using magic to destroy harmful microorganisms and viruses.

7: Speed/strength: Draconians, though large, are fast. Fast enough to leave an afterimage in some cases. Eva, however, hasn’t yet reached her full speed and power, and is only about 800 times as fast as a human. Draconians are also many times stronger than humans, hailing from a world with nearly seven times Earth’s gravity, as well as being much larger and having strength enhanced by magic. Again, though, Eva has yet to reach full maturity, and is only 200 times stronger than a human.

7: Time perception: Draconians perceive time much more slowly than humans, at about 1/1000th of the rate. While this does mean they can catch things humans would miss, it also means pain and suffering seem to last much longer for them, and it can often lead to speaking much too fast for human perception.

8: Night vision: What it sounds like. Draconians have an easier time seeing in low-light than they do in bright light, and can see in near-total darkness.

Relationships (not sure what to do with this ATM, so I’ll leave it…)

History
Eva was born. She became a fighter pilot. She was on a ship sent to the Milky Way to look for colonies. Here she is now. (this is a WIP history… I’ll add in more as I get to know her, if that’s allowed.)
