It's a Free Form Role Playing guild, based on elements from Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Dr Who, Halo, Cowboy Bebop, Cyberpunk, and Stargate.
Isn't that interesting?
Basically the game universe is the large city space ship that transports the players from planet to planet in a long commute around the galaxy through gated hyperspace corridors. Due to the fact the technology is imperfect, star gates may not always line up on demand and may take several days to several weeks to become active. This means the large space ship will occasionally be forced to remain in a sector until the star gate opens again.
The ship is completely automated, all crew functions are non-playing characters or computer controlled. So no, you cannot play a ship crew member.
Player characters will have to learn how to interact on a ship with all the social and political problems of a major metropolis. Factions, gangs, crime lords, bounty hunters and private security forces. They all have to co exist until their stop on the never ending journey of this space craft. Some people maybe be stuck on the ship, as the only way off the craft is through either a taxi service or private space craft, lacking either you're a permanent resident, but don't worry. You don't have to settle your bill until AFTER you make your final destination.
As for planetary encounters, there will be times when the ship comes across a planet and is stuck there, and for one reason or another, some of the player characters may choose to make planet fall. Each planet offers a new adventure and side quest for the players.
So... sound interesting?

Despite the L. Ron Hubbard influence, that does sound rather interesting. You can sign me up.

I LOVE Star Trek!!!!! The original series, especially. I watch it in reruns every week because I love it. Dr. Leonard McCoy, Senior Medical Officer on the USS Enterprise NCC-1701, specifically.

The spaceship isn't a DC-3, and it won't be put into a volcano and detonated with a hydrogen bomb and (REMAINDER OF THIS POST REDACTED DUE TO COPYRIGHT CLAIMS BY THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY)

I was always under the impression that Battlestar Galactica was one of Hubbard's works, but I just looked it up and, as of yet, find all evidence proves me wrong.

LordNeuf Can someone draw this to my specs??  You're very... accurate. You do realise the story is simply Red Dwarf with less 80s British humor and more people? Sign me up! I wanna be a Jewish Space Rebel!

Neuf asked me to join to, and I did. Of course, then I just had to make a scene and quit and refuse the invitation to come back.
Now I want back in! I've made a terrible mistake! crying
