Welcome to Gaia! ::

So far I've got an idea for an outlaw star rp and between shark, antari, and myself we've worked this out.
You make a character and I'll get to the form you send to me in a minute. Has to be an original character. You start where you want, make what alliances you will and start out with limited funds. You get richer depending on your profession. Space cop you don't actually get very rich but you do get the more advanced weaponry. Pirates and outlaws can rob people or places to get money while bounty hunters can collect bounties and civillians and everyone can participate in space races to earn big bucks if they can pay the entrance fee.

so far the character form would look like this

Name:
Race sad chosen from the list.)
Age:
Gender:
Weapon:
Profession: (from list or suggested if I decide it works)
Skills: (Pick two things you want to be really good at like mechanic and marksmen. I can work out a list later if people want it.)
Bio:
Apperance:

Character ship.

Name:

Crew:

Type: Heavy Medium or Light

Weapons: List what weapons your ship has

Load: Depending on number of weapons and size of said weapons this affects your speed. A light load is obviously gonna be faster.

Bio: Bit of history about your ship if available.

Apperance:

PLEASE PM CHARACTER AND SHIP FORMS TO MYSLEF ANTARI OR SHARK FIRST SO WE CAN APPROVE THEN POST HERE

CHANGES.
You can have the weapons on the list or custom weapons but if you want a custom weapon it's going to have to be approved by myself, shark, or antari. The big change is I've finally realized how to appease people and make the weapons work better. If you primarily use guns the biggest close combat weapon you can have is a knife and if you use anything bigger the best long range weapon you can have is a small pistol. If you use the long range weapons you can't really excel at close combat which means you keep your distance or the other persons going to have a lot easier time getting you. close range. You use a knife you're quicker but you can't hit from nearly as far away and you have a harder time hitting vital points. The larger the sword the slower you are but the more range you have and again make it too big and you're going to have trouble hitting vital spots since you're going to be really slow and people arn't generally dumb enough to hang around while someone swings an oversized blade at them.
Swords are sort of hard to do but Antari should be adding to the weapon selection at some point. Preferably if you have a specific sword in mind describe it better than "Longsword" or "Shortsword"

FURTHER CHANGES
Ships. You can have grappler ships but they have to be bigger and slower than smaller ships. Ships should be three general sizes Small which would be personnal or small four person crew type ship that won't get as powerful weapons and can't get grappling arms but will be the fastest of the three so able to avoid other ships fire. They can equip missiles and small laser pods.
Medium which would be able to use grappling arms and larger laser guns but won't move as fast as small ships and are going to obviously be a bigger targer. Large of course would be able to use larger grappling arms and bigger guns but need a full crew to keep them going and won't move nearly as fast as small ships.

I'll post more when I think of more.

Available Professions:

*Bounty Hunter: A rogue or space pilot who seeks out contracts and catches criminals for cash profit. The most basic class profession, the Bounty Hunter can wield a wide variety of weapons and can pilot a variety of combat ships. However, money can sometimes be scarce for these hunters, as jobs aren't always easy to come by. So while the easiest profession, it is also the least profitable. Unless you "hit it big".

*Space Pirate: An outlaw who choses thievery and piracy to achieve money and fame. Usually piloting fast, lightly armed ships, the Space Pirates mostly use grappler and gunships with large cargo hulls for storing stolen loot. The Pirate is well suited with most swords, pistols, and grenades, but lacks heavy armaments that other classes might have access to. Still, why earn your money the hard way when you can just steal it?

*Space Police Officer: Always obeying and enforcing the law, this class strives on top-of-the-line equipment and has the best training in the galaxy. Usually recruiting the strongest, bravest, and most skilled in it's ranks, it's expected to consider this a great class. However, they rarely have racing-class cruisers with the exception of "interceptor" and "pursuit" models. Their standard weapons are advanced rifles, pistols, and explosives, they have the best firepower of all the classes. However pay isn't very special and you'll spend most of your time chasing down Pirates and Rogues who break the law. Only suited for the most noble of pilots.

*Outlaw: The most common class in the era of beyond-light speed travel. While not always having the best equipment or ships, they can pilot just about anything from a police cruiser to a towboat. The outlaw looks for any job and settles for any type of payment. The ships they have offer the most variety, from racing classes to grappler ships to combat cruisers, whatever the outlaw can buy, they can fly. However, this leads to a problem. They can handle about any weapon, but due to their lack of a sufficient income, providing ammo for the ship's, as well as their own weapons, comes into balance. It is this reason why the smart outlaw avoids a fight, rather than jump into everyone he sees.

*Civilian: Not fitting into any other class, the civilian can be anything from a mechanic to a professional racer. This class usually has the fastest ships and the best upgrades, but has virtually no weapons. Some civilians can use daggers and pistols, but it is a rare sight. The civilian earns quite a lot of money, not having to pay for it's space ship's damage due to insurance and earning a great deal by entering races.
