Rain Artuga frozen cryogenically in a pod, they repair the ship and rename it The Last Evangelion and immediately travel back to Evangelion to find the planet completely destroyed, blasted into an expanding cloud of debris. they return to known space and pick up a crew, and set out discover the fate of Evangelion before ts fate becomes their own.

I'll be playing as Rain. the story will start with the hiring of a crew, before anyone can do anything i need someone to play Skyy, we'll be co-captains of the Evangelion. everyone else won't join in the traditional way, instead of just creating a character they'll have to create a 'resume' and 'apply' for a position as a crewmember. this will allow me to start the story as soon as I have someone to play Skyy although you will need to speak to us before we know who you are it adds to realism
We're currently accepting applications for the following positions:
Engineers: 2
Pilots: 1
Medics: 1
Marines/turret gunners: 2
Once I have someone to play Skyy the story will open up aboard or ship currently docked at the space station Capricus III, In 48 hours after the game starts we'll be pulling out of port, regardless of how may people have signed on with us, I'll be acting not only as a character but as a GM to run things smoothly, only i can pause the game and i almost never will, even if i have to leave. for the most part you'll be traveling aboard the ship visiting with strange cultures and fighting various factions, but there will also be a hidden task: I will be throwing in clues either in the form of objects or nightmares my character is having. you'll need to discover the fate of Evangelion in time to stop history from repeating itself.

I think this might turn out kind of interesting, but I want you to make sure it doesn't fall into the throws of epic unrealism like the Emergency Broadcast thread. Kay? I'll join then. However, I won't play as Skyy.

I am . . .

NAME: Ben Amyadon

AGE: 20

GENDER: Male

HOME COLONY: Myrr Empire, originally an outpost colony of Enders Wall that broke off in 2452 to form the Myrr Empire. The ME controls 3 planets in Sector Epsilon (yes, I konw I'm adapting my own plot/characters from the Myrr Empire, but hey, I like the story I built around ME), and is expanding rapidly. The ME restored contact with the Confederation in 2675, then broke off at the end of the war. They contacted the Midari and Syndi in 2836 for trade purposes.

APPLYING FOR POSITION AS: Engineer. Ben is the son of a trader, and is pursuing a carreer in Engineering. He graduated top of his class, and is known for fixing nearly anything any making what the can't buy/fix.

PICTURE: N/A, maybe soon.

ANY MEDICAL CONDITIONS: Allergic to spicy food.

ANY GENE MODS: In an experimental sensory gene modification, Ben's vision was corrected to be 20/3, he was granted the smelling capacity of a dog, the balance/hearing of a cat, and an eerie kind of electromagnetic sense derived from sharks that tells him the exact positions of other living organisms in the room with his eyes closed. The second and thrid tries at the mod were a total faliure (read: the subjects died) and Poject Sensa was cancelled, the mod has been performed on noone else since. Sensory modification has since been outlawed by many colonies. Ben also has the side affect of feeling strange when he is near a strong magnetic field or metal, which some people point to as the reson for his engineering capacities. He considers it a severe disadvantage when working near live reactor systems and underground, because he tends to feel the wave patterns of magnetic fields along his skin.

So in summary, Ben has:
20/3 vision/nightvision
hyper-sensitive hearing and smell
balance of a cat
electromagnetic sensitivity

ANY CRIMINAL HISTORY: None.

ANY OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION: Ben always carries a K-51 hand phase-pistol in his left pocket, a wireless audio system in his ear, and UV-sunglasses with HUD display to protect his sesitive eyes. He is cool and calm in crisis situations, a good chef, brilliant in most subjects, but a horrible sociologist. He perfers solitary work, and only signed on to this voyage because there was incentive of adventure. If given the option, he would rathar be a hunter in the forests of Galder 8 rather than serve in an office or government position.

ANY OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION: Skyy was born on the poor colony of Hell's Forge. nestled at the edge of the Coalsack Nebula the planet's sun is partly obscured by the swirling dust clouds, giving the planet a dark cool climate. This is compounded by the mineral resources of the planet, as it is a major industrial hub the planet is cast in an almost perpetual twilight from over 700 years of smog and pollution. Skyy joined the piloting division of the Rekenbakar Corporation, government of the world. He betrayed them and escaped the planet where he is now wanted for treason. He was running from a gang of pirates when he found the asteroid complex holding Rain.

ANY CRIMINAL HISTORY: 17 accounts of murder, 12 accounts of blackmail, numerous cases of illegal cargo running

ANY OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION: Rain was born on the Evangelion world of New Jerusalem a one of the six worlds settled after their exodus to escape the problems of humanity at large, she joined the fleet at a young age and became a plug officer on the starship Saint Michael, she served aboard for 4 years before having a memory blackout, the next thing she remembers is being woken up from her pod by Skyy

Do answer one question - you seem to have a story and general idea of what happened (and will happen)..Yes?

So is the colony (and ship name) in any way related to the anime Evangelion?
Is there biologicial (cell-based. nano-tubes and stuff are normal tech) tech galore and uber-tech?

Asking, cause I hate all the things I mentioned. 8)

Hm..If I join this it will prolly be as a marine/gunner.

I'll pass on Skyy, (I was really asking because I would be willing to fill if no one else wanted it) and I think I'll create a character soon. If no one posts between this post and if/when I do make it, I'll simply edit this post.

Also, I'd like to snag the Medic position for the next 6 hours while I decide and prepare a possible bio. If I don't create one within that timeframe, feel free to steal it.

yeah I do have a story pretty firmly thought up.
the story is not connected to the anime, that anime sort of creeped me out for some reason. as for tech, if you've ever played EVE online then things are around there tech speaking. As for biological stuff, there are bioweapons used by some of the less...ethical groups but if you mean supersoldiers and weird hybrid creatures then no, again some of the less ethical groups have dabbled in human gene manipulation but if your looking for catgirls, supersoldiers, zombie viruses, strange mutants, and the like you've come to the wrong place.

NAME: Ariel Subota
AGE: 17
GENDER: Female
HOME COLONY: New Tokyo
APPLYING FOR POSITION AS: Medical Staff
PICTURE: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v319/ ... subota.png
ANY MEDICAL CONDITIONS: Moderate psychological issues with interpersonal contact, but not crippling. Wears glasses, but has above-average eyesight.
ANY GENE MODS: Old military-grade cyber-interface port located behind her right ear, dendrite grafts at several points throughout the central nervous system, several unapproved hormone and drugs administered as a child, boosting response time and dexterity.
ANY CRIMINAL HISTORY:(DON'T WORRY WE DON'T COUNT IT AGAINST YOU) Currently wanted by Ares Corporation of New Tokyo for "Theft of Property"
ANY OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION: Highly suitable pilot candidate, but refuses to pilot craft. High natural intelligence, bolstered by education of a level in Universities, Officer Candidate Schools, etc. Was the esteemed Dr. Kawagami's unofficial apprentice and assistant for the past 4 years; during which Dr. Kawagami cared for Ariel. Possesses only a nursing license, too young for anything more advanced, though capable. Does not desire a higher license. Glasses in possession are standard HUD device connected to an old, battered analytic computer she carries around, but Ariel usually leaves them turned off and keeps them merely for keeping at least one more psychological barrier between her and the external world, helping her distance herself from others.

Meh. I suppose this is good enough. Tad cliche, but I didn't feel like going totally original. :P Original enough, I hope.
