The planet has become completely unstable - poisoned by our ancestors. The land and waters of the earth no longer yield life. The air intoxicated with chemicals looming within the air, remnants of the many nuclear wars of our past. Human kind has survived in the skies for 240 years now.
~
The human race is supported by airships of all sizes, settled within large barriers of cloud. Clouds are used to filter the air from the outer world making it so humans are able to breathe. Airships are able to move to a new location at anytime, for they have the ability to collect clean air, and maintain it for some time. Leaving the skies is risky.. only the lightning collectors are able to leave the shield of cloud.

The roleplay takes place on a small rogue airship called the Argon aswell as a military bounty hunter ship called the Hades, who work for the government = the dominion.
_____________________________________________________________________
тнє αяgσи
The Argon is a small rogue airship -belonging to no division. The crew are known as the Sky Pirates. The Ship’s main purpose is capturing and delivering lightning. Lightning is the source of all life within the skies, as it is the only form of conducting electricity. The Sky Pirates capture the lightning from storm clouds and deliver it to the main ships in each division. The Argon is also sent on surveying missions – scanning the earth’s surface for life, helping stranded airships etc. This ship has no boundaries, yet divisions do not always comply to the rules of the dominion.The Argon was appointed by the Dominion, yet rarely follows rules.

тнe нadeѕ
The Hades ship is a small bounty hunter’s ship appointed by the Dominion. This ship essentially captures rogue, or disobedient ships who break the laws of the high rule. The Argon having betrayed the Dominion on several occasions (beginning with harbouring and raising a child from the surface, and constantly breaking boundaries and causing riot and pirate like behaviour where they go, ) have been the target of The Hades for several years and have been on their trail ever since.
_____________________________________________________________________
тнe doмιnιon
The world has not been divided into continents and countries any longer. The human race is ruled by a group of people called The Dominion” . The Dominion is made up of individuals who represent each division of the sky (the presidents/kings of each sector) They rule from the main “Ursa Major” airship.
_____________________________________________________________________
dιvιѕιonѕ
The sky is made up of different sectors known as divisions. Each division is made up of a large airship or group of airships that are essentially the “countries” of this world. Each airship colony reside in a specific area of sky – at this they have their own boundaries and laws in which the other divisions must respect.

тнe υrѕa мajor The Ursa Major is the airship in which the Dominion rules from. It is the largest airship of all, (made up of only the one ship) and is essentially the “big city” of airships. All laws from any division must be passed through the Ursa Major. The Ursa Major can travel freely about the skies however it is mainly located over the highest mountains of the earth below.

тнe υrѕa мιnor The second largest airship colony is the Ursa Minor. This is another “city” like division and is known for their large dealings with in the trade industry. It is made up of 14 different large ships all located above the waters of the earth below.

тнe caѕѕιopeιa One of the smallest airship fleets, with only 6 main ships – the Cassiopeia fleet is mainly a residential fleet. It’s supplies usually shipped over from the Ursa Minor, for it is the next division over from theirs. It is located over forested areas of the earth’s surface.

тнe orιon The Orion is the largest fleet of airships, known for their military power. Where every division has their military fleets, the Orion has “Hercules” the strongest and most brutal military ship in the world. The Orion has many prominent organizations within the large fleets.
VENT: A development facility at the heart of Orion's success, founded when the human race took to the skies to avoid the toxicity of the world bellow. The research is fundamentally concentrated on vehicular sciences and aims to improve the standard of air ship transportation to benefit trade and law enforcement. The facilities are separated between four squads, each changing their profession with each success and dead-end reached by Orion's funding.
WARP: An engineering company bought out by Orion in the early stages of mans take to the skies. The corporation was seen as a second super power before the founder was found deceased in his home and the company sold for dirt to the highest bidder, of which there was only one. The factories and research labs concentrate on advancing the weapons for Orion's air-ships first and foremost before selling their technology to the highest bidder. In all, it can still be considered a separate superpower due to its independence on the world market.
SOAR: Once a small time group of cheap thugs who were bribed by Orion into commissioning less than virtuous acts, the group was thought to hit the big leads after a mark was hit for a certain company. Apparently this information was leaved from Orion's lower ranks and it is unclear if it is plausible, but there is a large amount of speculation over this secretive sect of Orion's arsenal. It is believed that SOAR patrol beyond the cloud barrier and ambush marks there as many ship wrecks have been found by travelling merchants with the same damage done to the ships hull. It is unknown to the public if this group is legitimate as it is so privatised by Orion.
SWORD: In layman's terms, SWORD operatives and air-ships are seen as the police for the skies. Brought into existence by Orion to make sure the air born society functioned correctly, SWORD fights against criminals and terrorists. A military power like none other, their vast armadas of air-ships can fill the skies in moments if they have been given the kill command. Feared by all, SWORD operatives and commanders are some of the blackest hearted humans that roam the skies and all of them are under the aggressive lead of Orion.

_____________________________________________________________________
тнє συтєя ѕкιєѕ
The outer skies is the area between each division. When an one crosses the border of a division they enter the "outer skies". There is a main route through these parts of the skies in which trade and transportation airships travel. Taking other routes are dangerous - the encounter of rogue airships of pirates, thieves and other undesirable flyers run a high risk.
Only few have permission to Legally leave the marked flight paths. The Permission is granted by the dominion.

Each Division is made up of many Large ships for residential and job purposes, but there are also smaller ships within each division for other business, military, transportation and trade purposes.

The information on the world (ships, divisions etc.) may change at any time please keep checking for updates.
If you have any ideas for the Roleplay don't hesitate! PM me and I'll check them out!

A loud yawn echoed out from the captains quarters as his eyes fluttered open. Soon after the sounds of his feet touching the floor came after. Up sat a man who looked like he was in his late twenties, with long silver locks of hair spiraling and messily hanging over his face and features. Slowly making his way over to the desk in his quarters, he reached for a bottle with a clear liquid inside, taking a long swig of it he shook his head almost in shock or disgust of this liquid he drank. Soon after this reaction a smile came to his face, as his eyes fell to the label. Bright Vodka, triple distilled in Campbellford, Ontario. Year: 1993. He shook his head as he set the bottle back down on his desk, fastening the top on. Pulling on his black coat with brown edging all around it, and sliding his hat on top of his head. He started towards the door.

As he stepped outside into the morning sunlight, he looked around. It would seem they were still in Ursa Major. His silver hair blew in the cool morning breeze. Seeing as he seemed to be the first to be awake he slowly moved towards the P.A system that was installed on the mast and he spoke into the small intercom with enthusiasm.

"Gooooooood morning you bunch of lazy bones."

He smiled at the loud wake up call he gave everyone he walked towards the front of the ship. The morning breeze blowing in his hair as he waited for the crew of his ship to awake. He knew that he might get mixed feelings about the wake up. But at least it wasn't like some of his other ways of waking them up, like the time he had a little bit too much to drink or the multiple times he's woken up with a hangover. Due to his little... Problem.

Lili sat on the edge of the ship, gazing out to the mountains below.
Ursa Major
The cold breeze grazed her pale face,
sending her bright black hair tossling in the wind.
The sun was just awakening,
casting streams of yellows, oranges, reds and even purples across the sky.
The snow glistened in the early morning light.
There was something about the earth.. something about the surface she could not quite grasp.
Lili sighed.

"Gooooooood morning you bunch of lazy bones."

The calm broke with the loud booming of the speaker,
Lili jumped with a start,
sending her off the railing where she sat over the side of the ship.
She flung her arms out, reaching for the airship.
Her gloved hand grasped the bottom of the railing, as she held on for her life.

What a fine way to start of the morning.

she thought to herself as she began to pull herself upward.
Her boots barely gripped the side of the ship,
as she struggled to climb back to safety.

"A little help here!!"

She shouted with frustration,
hoping the captain wasn't too intoxicated from the night before.
Johannes was like a father to her, a captain of a group of sky pirates-
who had much more than a fondness for alcohol, but a loving man at that.

"Hello?? You won't get anywhere if your navigator flies away!!!"

Gwen leaned against the side of the ship, her hands crossed as she leaned over the side. She had watched the sunrise that morning, she'd seen it peak over the clouds and give the world color. She jumped as Johannes called directly behind her, shattering the calm of the morning. As Lili fell she laughed, extending her hand to help her up. "Good morning, clumsy." She smiled, her mood greatly improved by Lili.
As she hauled Lili up she turned to Johannes, "You never cease to surprise me." She thought aloud, wondering why she was bothering to help Lili. It was same old routine every morning, thought Gwen usually wasn't up to see it.

[[ooc; lol, yay! -is excited-]]

I'm just resting before I get tired.

"We will ride with fire burning hot towards the night sky
In the land of long ago forever in our souls...

___________________

A loud yawn an stretch followed the wait, when soon after he heard a familiar voice. "A little help here!! "Hello?? You won't get anywhere if your navigator flies away!!!" Johannes's ears perked up at the sound of a call of help quickly rushing towards the source of the call for help. His eyes fell towards Lili the navigator of his ship and Gwen his second in hand.

"Now Mimi, there are railings for a reason you know."

His eyes fell towards her almost in a disapproving but playful look. He had found Lili at the age of four. He had brought her upon the shop after finding her down on the earth's surface. He was a kind soul, but from all of his years of sailing, he had never found a child down in the wastes that lay below, grown men and women; yes. Children; No.
He now leaned against the railing of the ship where he had pulled her upwards with a smile on his face and a slow shake of his head. Sighing and letting his head fall backwards staring up at the beautiful morning sky above them he wondered what more might this day hold in store for him.

"Good Morning Gwen, Ship is still in fine condition?"

Lili hesitated to grasp Gwen's hand,
She knew her well of course,
but human contact of any kind
made her very uncomfortable.
She began to panic, it was Gwen or death..
for many this would be easy...
A strong hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her aboard
This took her by shock but he knew she would never take his hand willingly.
Collapsing on the familiar deck of the airship
she gazed up at her Captain and Vice Captain looking over her.
They were laughing.

"It's not funny!"

She said with a giggle.
It was pretty funny.
With that she jumped to her feet and headed inside to the map route to plan the next course.

Abigail Rupnik snored peacefully on the tiny bunk that they called a bed. The first few nights have been tough, and she had often woken up reaching for her own jumbo sized pillow, instead reaching out into thin air and dozing back off in disappointment.

But last night she slept soundly, getting up only once to use the loo. Stirring from her slumber, Abby recognized the booming voice of the Captain coming on over the intercom. She wiped the sleep out of her eyes and let out a contagious yawn, that seemed to wake other crew members around her.

Stretching, like she did every morning, Abby kicked someone in their head, who in return let out a snarl. Snickering, she slid off of the bunk and pulled her long sweater over her.

"So sorry." She said sarcastically, climbing up deck and squinting in the blinding sunlight.

"Ah, the pirate's life for me! What have I gotten myself into?"

Jeff jumped up from his sleep when he heard the captain's voice over the p.a.system.He looked around confused about where he was. He began to put his guns in their holsters as he stepped out onto the Argon. He looked around trying to find someone he would bother to talk to. He spotted Abigail as she came out onto the deck.

"Yo girl."

He yelled as he began to walk closer to Abigail.He scratched his head when he got next to her. Jeff had no clue what her name was. The only names he knew was his the captain's and the second in command's. Everyone else he would just call girl or boy until he bothered to actually learn their name.

"What are you up to?"

"Positively dreadful, as usual." She said jokingly. She loved the ship and it was always kept in better condition than she thought possible.
Then Gwen sighed, tiredness swooping in, wrapping itself around her. She fought it briefly and then muttered, "I'm going to the study, got a few things that need taking care of." With that she left, hoping he didn't tell her she had to do otherwise. What would she have to do anyways? Her crew (commonly known as the night crew) were already setting up their beds, or in other words shoving their bed-mates out of theirs.
Gwen wondered absently about her family, how she had abandoned them to the Ursa Major. It had been so long ago, 4 years. Will I ever see them again? She thought.

[[ooc; Is it okay if there are like 2 crews? since on a traditional pirate ship there would be so they could sail day and night]]

I'm just resting before I get tired.
