The Calah is a far superior form of her sister ships, she has been painstakingly pieced together by her current crew to make her the fastest most lethal ship she can be. she is battle and race ready, with lightspeed capabilities. the opening setting is the planet of Washlo, a planet of nothing but small cities with men and women looking to make there way in the galaxy. A common rest point for any mercenary and freighter ship. The current captain and mechanic have stopped to reman the ship for there next assignment.

5th post: reserved


The rules for this rp are as follows:
The TOS is the law.
1 ) No godmoding
2 ) All potentials must pm me for any of the positions
3 ) The ship can take passengers, but only when the title announces that they are being accepted
4 ) This will be an on-going rp, don't apply if you only intend to stay for one night. I'm hoping to be able to rp every other day at least, and if you just vanish, your position will be advertised as vacant after a week. If you return you must ask for the position back, even if it hasn't been filled. If you are going away for a few days, please warn me and we'll work something out.
If you join, then want to leave, I'd much rather you pmed me and said it outright, rather than leave the rest of us wondering where you went. I will not take offense, but it does make it easier on me as a GM
5 ) Be reasonable, I'm allowing alien races, and gene splicing, but nothing to out there
6 ) PG 13 at all times
7 ) The positions available are: None
8 ) its a spaceship, if you're going to mutiny, do it right and get the strongest fighters in the crew on your side, and make sure that at least one of them can steer the ship

This is a Firefly based RP (yes we are using a star wars ship. deal with it joss even admits its inspiration in his series.)

Our current character losses stand at:
Captain: none
Mechanic: none
Pilot: none
Cook: none
Medic: none
Shephard: none

[The Compass Rose]

The positions

Mechanic: You're the one who makes sure the ship keeps on flying. You may need a bit of general knowledge, like base piloting, but it's not necessary. Gunmanship appreciated, but not essential.

Pilot: You keep the bird in the air. Gunskills are essential. You'll be expected to look after the shuttles on missions, and plot safe routes, keeping out of the federation's view.

Cook: you're actualy the armsmaster on this ship, but of course, that position is technically illegal, so you're also the ships cook. You need to be able to actually cook too though, since otherwise your covers no good. Your job entails keeping the weaponry in order, and being able to accurately kit out the crew with appropriate weapons when needed.

Medic: You keep the crew healthy. Part of your duties include making sure there's decent food (even if it's just basic protien slab) each journey. You'll be dealing with generalized ship injuries, such as burns and broken bones, as well as mission injuries like gunshot wounds and damaged limbs. Combat experience preferred.

Shephard: With the luck of the last ship, a bit of faith on the ship is just one what the captain ordered. There's a call out for a shephard to come to keep the souls on the Calah safe. Fighting capabilities are not neccesary but if god blessed you with them we welcome them. Good luck.
